• Whizzwheels
• Made in the UK
• Released 1970
• Missing its bicycle wheel rack
• Damage to roof on left pillars
• Great suspension
• French flag on bonnet / hood
• Paramount branded

The Tour de France team car, from 1970, is a a splendid model by Corgi. It includes both the driver figure and its coach with megaphone. It is lacking its bicycle wheel rack from the back, and there is a disconnect between the left side pillars and the roof. However, I displayed it in this condition for years with delight.

It’s a beautiful vehicle and bright red with the Paramount sign on both sides done in cursive. The red and yellow color scheme is a cheerful one and the bottom is nicely cast. I’m not a big fan of Whizzwheels, but this isn’t available in any other form.
