VANGUARDS - Sunbeam Alpine MK II, Carnival Red.


Ahh, a Sunbeam Alpine MK II, in a beautiful Carnival Red, i must have gotten the camera in just the right angle to make it look like the headlights were on, and its looks good, and takes away the dust, sorry, this MK II model is a surprise really, as Sunbeam, or the Rootes Group, only produced the MK II for one year only 1962, so a limited run from vanguards will no doubt be completed.

The working suspension and working jewelled headlights set this off, with white wall tyres and detailed interior, this model is an great casting to have in any collection, just a shame then that it will no doubt be a very limited run of versions, this particular model i purchased from Harrods, and it cost less than the equivalent models direct from Corgi today.
