This is one of the Matchbox 'Regular Wheel' models that transitioned to the Superfast range. As well as the change to Superfast wheels, the colour was changed from green to red. There were also amendments to the unpainted metal baseplate, including removal of the exhaust pipes, and the tow hook was removed from the off-white plastic interior moulding.
This example has paint chipping/scratching mainly to the front edges of the roof and front wings. The windscreen has light scratches too, and the rear axle is bent.
