Corgi got the front bumper at the right height and did a better job with the doors - even if the rear windows and window pillars are a bit too thick so neither is perfect. But the corgi golden jack issue has the correct hubcaps so gets my vote as my favourite but great to compare!

Collectors Greetings from Austria

For me, every car model has 6 pages for the view.
And I think the base plate is a very important (Interesting)
view on any model.

Prost Mike

It is nice to see comparative pictures like those shown by "Fox", both models have their good and bad points. The Corgi should be the better model being designed by none other than Mr Gerald Wingrove and a fully licensed model. The first versions with those 'Golden Jacks' are better than the later versions because of tool ware issues. I have just added the Corgi model to my little Rolls-Royce model site. It is not a full listing, just an introduction to the model, but I do show 9 versions.

To Mike : That's right.
But if you click on any picture, you will see it.
