Nothing typifies mid-to-late 1960s Corgis like this wonderful Lotus-Climax racing car. It was a must-have for schoolboys of the era, introduced in December 1964, just in time for Christmas. Based on Colin Chapman’s streamlined design that first raced in 1962 and was famously driven by Jim Clark, this superb Corgi is painted in a classic ‘British racing green’ livery, with a yellow racing stripe and that all important number one decal.

Strangely, the box illustration showed the car with a number four. Best of all, it came with a miniature driver, perfect for holding your own Grand Prix on the living room carpet! It was deleted in 1975, by which time racing cars looked very different indeed.

Nice!

Very nice, but very small! Over priced for the small size.

Welcome back to your childhood

One of my favorite cars in my toy car collection when I was a kid was this Lotus Formula one race car…This was before the introduction of the first Hot Wheels cars. I have told my grown son many times how the toy cars were before they introduced the red lines. Now I can show him the exact thing I had…wonderful and nostalgic!!

I have been a fan of Jim Clark who pioneered the rear engine Lotus at the
Indianapolis 500
