Vanguards
Vanguards were launched in 1996 by the Lledo company as a range of highly detailed models in a constant 1:43 scale, mainly of classic British cars and trucks. Corgi continued the Vanguards range after the take-over of Lledo in 1999, initially under the Lledo banner and later as Corgi Vanguards. For this reason some the later releases will be found in this section of the Tortoys online shop, while earlier Vanguards will be found in the Lledo section.
