But this variation always confused me.
Why the white interior???
Yellow RWs had red -
First yellow Superfasts had red -
First re-color was bronze, right? IT had red interior - what gives?
How can I sleep tonite without this knowledge???

Don't forget that there are some vhtf rw yellow with white interior too

Stop teasing Hugh lets see the rest of that ultra rare model!!!

Can i also suggest that images of that model get added to Nicks site as there are no images with the prepro thin wheels

As requested:
All three photographs have been lifted from an Ebay listing of about 18 months ago. The seller removed the non-original "3" label after taking the first photograph.

Hugh, I agree with Numi that is a stunning and extremely rare Group 6 and images must be put onto Nicks site without delay. (Are you reading this Nick!!)

Simply wonderful a true diamond and i dare not ask what you paid for it!!! Just lovin it!!!!!!

NEC Birmingham 28/9/2014.

My purchases from today. Cant beleive i got a first issue Stannards for £60!!!

This arrived yesterday and God I just love it when i do Ebay out of money!!!!

Here is a great example of a seller not doing any research into the model they are selling, including a couple of crap photos and vague description. The result well I think i did very well for my £5.50 purchase, what do you think?

I would have bought it if I had seen it!
And as for the #3 label on the Ford Group 6 who can say that it wasnt original because the thin wheels emerald issues most likely went out as gift or track set specials so could have been made before #7 labels printed so used whats available!

That was well spotted Alex, I would have missed that one
Mick you could be correct about the 45 label as it does have some feint glue marks along the bottom as if it had had the Burmah labels applied

Thats a sharp find MM. A rare beast indeed!
