Early issues had giftware mounting holes in the baseplate that were later filled in, Both early and later types can be found with one or two spare wheels attached to the rear of the car and the models with one spare tyre are probably the easiest to find., The wheels were very intricately cast wires which are always found with fine tread black plastic tyres. The very first issue was released with baseplate holes, two spare wheels and very unusual black plastic seats which is an extremely rare variation that does not come up for sale very often, As the Mercedes has no roof the red plastic interior is even more prone to sunfade so models can be found with almost pink seats which is due to sun bleaching the colour out of the plastic. In 1969 it was deleted to make way for the Rolls Royce Silver Ghost. |

did much for sales, Just the black seated version to look out for but it is extremely rare indeed. |

Note the black seated model illustrated on the early box. |
