This new Morris Mini Cooper model has lights and magnatraction

 

In 1958 the Mini rapidly took shape around Alec Issigonis's concept. Leaps of engineering imagination were performed including the placement of the gearbox under the engine, front-wheel drive with the power unit mounted transversely, and rubber cone suspension designed by rubber expert Alex Moulton. The Mini soon became a car beloved by the ordinary man as well as the racing world. Although, as a race car, the Mini was not the quickest, in terms of straight-line speed, on the track it was certainly the car that would gain a big advantage through twisty parts of a circuit or rally stage. The Mini Cooper’s race pedigree grew and it soon enjoyed its third Monte Carlo rally win in 1967.

What better Mini for Scalextric to replicate than the 1967 Monte Carlo winner car driven by Aaltonen. The famous ‘LBL 6D’ registration Mini is an excellent companion to race against the Ford Escort MK1 from the Scalextric range. Excellent build quality and attention to detail is to the normal high standard. The quality of the printed decoration is excellent.

Beautifully presented in the brand new car packaging case for 2007 this Scalextric Morris Mini Cooper model is new and has been supplied direct from the manufacturer.
