Really cool little car - sits right next to my Corgi Red Volvo - The Saint Series w/Roger Moore was pretty cool, however, my favourite Saint will always be George Sanders - he was the best Saint in my never-to-be humble opinion.
My boat was poorly packed and suffered impact that caused severe damage to the Corgi packaging, the color box. Sent an email to the company asking for a replacement or refund of some kind and have never heard a word back. Doubtful I will stay in the club with this sort of customer service.
It’s great to see these available once again. Love how they re-issued it from every detail of the original. Would also love an updated version too.
MGb-GT.Very Impressed with this model. I believe these models are superior to the original releases. Love the display boxes also.
Another fine addition to my collection, which includes the ones from my childhood in the mid to late 1960's
When I was a kid I had a large collection of corgi cars years later after moving out of my parents house and starting my own family my mother mailed my entire collection to me over the years they disappeared with grandkids and kids. Now with the Corgi Club I have the chance to relive all the joy those cars gave me, Now I’ll get to the point with all the cars I had over the 50s and 60s I never saw a plastic Corgi before All mine were die-cast.
I had forgotten I actually had one of these as a child back in the 1960s with the "Saint" emblem on the hood. Wish I had it still, along with the 007 DB5 in silver (and working ejection seat). I still have my Lotus F1 car, but it lacks tires. Various Corgi cars, all well-used, filled my childhood. Great to see these being offered again, although at these prices, I don't think I'll be tossing them in the dirt! The Carrera is on my wish list.
I purchased the reissue Batmobile #267, when responding to a Facebook Ad, promising a purchase price of $35.99 plus shipping, along with membership in the Corgi Model Club. The promotion also stated that I would receive two bonus items (catalog and collectible tin.). I was billed at $70+ , and was informed that I needed to purchase another model, before I could be a member. After many back and forth conversations, I was credited $10, but still never received the bonuses offered. I feel I was scammed into purchasing the model at a reduced price, with promises of free swag that was never sent. I will continue to purchase models from eBay and third party sellers; I have lost all confidence in the model club itself. I have since learned that others have had similar experiences, with promises of receiving new models at discounted prices, that never materialize.

Having the original model as a young boy makes the re-issue even more special. The exterior is honestly better than the original. Battery compartment is vastly improved and all metal in a screw down design. The only disappointment is the steering wheel and seats as listed on the features. It looks like a brown blob with a hint of a bump for a steering wheel - no seats. Hence why I didn’t rate this model five stars. Interior details do matter, in my opinion.
Brought back lots of memories.
I started collecting the Chipperfields Circus line about that time. To this day, just seeing to boxes bring back that memory. JJ Neewberry store at Green Acres Shopping Center, Valley Stream NY
