The Spitfire MK II, in Signal red, from Triumph, was not the most modern of cars on the roads, it was heavily based on Herald underpinnings, but it sold, and sold bucket loads, in the 18 year run over 310,000 were sold, it had a number of updates with the last being the 1500 model, the last ever Spitfire is on display at Gaydon, where the British Motor Industry Heritage Trust (BMIHT) is based.
This Vanguards VA06700 was the launch model for the Spitfire range, and so is not a limited Edition, but it has the dual roof covers, of either a full roof or the cockpit cover on the passenger side. I really do not like the slabs of white plastic on the wheels, but the rest, including jewelled headlights and working suspension really do make this a nice model.
