This is the second type of Corgi James Bond Aston Martin, and it is the final version, the first to be fitted with Whizzwheels. Finished in silver, with red interior, and gold grille and bumpers. Like the earlier gold model number 261, it has extending front overriders/guns, ejector seat and bullet-proof shield, but unlike earlier versions of 270 this Whizzwheels version does not have the additional features of extending tyre slashers and revolving number plates
This one is in fair condition; one end of the front bumper is missing, as is the ejectable passenger figure. The paintwork is excellent apart from the usual mark on the roof flap where it has struck the edge of the roof opening. All the operating features still work, although the roof flap does not close quite flush with the roof.
The window box is fair-to-good, with some crushing. Note that there is reference on the box to features not present in the Whizzwheels version, so is probably not the box this model originally came in.
