Red, with white interior and black base. This Routemaster bus was the first Matchbox 1-75 series bus to be fitted with seats. It has 'BP Visco-Static' labels on the sides and a 4-line description on the base.
This example is fundamentally excellent, with no paint chips and well-preserved labels. However, some additional painted detailing has been applied; matt black grille, grey headlights, platform edge and axle ends, and white destination boards. The destination boards haven't been done very well, and in my opinion would look much better in black.
The axles are rust-free and the type E box is very good, with a little wear on the flap edges.
