Finally found one, Gold Miura with tow guide found at the NEC amongst a box of beaters.
This one also has the smaller text on the baseplate that Reg highlighted in an earlier post in this thread.

Hi all,
I recently discovered this forum and will be sharing some more interesting/obscure variations of the Miura, both RW and Superfast. I only collect the Miura, and over the years I've come across some noteworthy finds.
To begin, here is my gold Superfast Miura with the tow slot. I picked this one up on eBay Germany in a lot of three Matchbox cars. The seller was unaware of the car's significance, so I paid very little for it.

This car has the blocks under the rear wheel arches and does not have the two plastic rails on the center console.
Thanks!
