This 45a Vauxhall Victor in red caught my eye - but for all the wrong reasons!
I'm not convinced that it is a genuine example. Quite apart from the absence of a dashboard photograph, I don't like the wheels (too shiny), the crimps (too large, wrong shape), the baseplate rivet (looks tampered with, near perfect paint coverage), or the paint (colour may be off, coverage doesn't look quite right).
What do other Members think?
The seller is Mattwhite 1 from Stoke-on-Trent who sells diecast (mainly Matchbox) and has 100% feedback.

The last picture showing the base rivet...A bit suspicious I'd say!

The axle crimps don’t look right to me. I suppose the shiny wheels could just be over enthusiastic cleaning...

Difficult to get the wheels that clean whilst on the axle. I think they've been taken off and chemically cleaned

I saved the listing to watch it as I thought it didn't look original when I first saw it hit Ebay. The only thing the descriptions says is "used" and also RARE RED Mint ??
Agree that it is not the real thing............
Auction is nearing the end and it is over $250 USD with nearly 30 bids.
Sad situation for someone..........................

A hammer price of £371.58 plus £4.00 p&p!
A fool and his money...

Hi all, I feel sorry for the chap who brought it, & its somebody with a Ebay score of 1500. Be interesting to see if it gets returned Pete.
