Limited Edition - 1 of 850
Extensive government research into policing procedures led to 'Unit Beat Policing' (UBP) being rolled out across the UK during the late 1960s. Conceptually this was a big change as police officers, who had previously walked a 'beat' over a given time period, now drove between different areas walking for a while before driving to the next. This led to the introduction of the 'Panda Car', so named because it featured white panels on a blue car. These were usually small, economical cars such as the Minor. The example modelled was one of The Lothians and Peebles Constabulary's (L&PC) initial batch of twenty UBP cars, all Minors, supplied by Hall Brothers of Musselburgh.

An excellent representation of one of the coolest cars going. Cool vibes remembering the Top Gear episode where Clarkson cricked his neck, track testing this car in Japan. Nitty-gritty time. Reasonably priced, despatched and received quickly with more than adequate protection and packaging. The quintessential perfect online shopping experience.
Good detail and start of a new collection of F1 cars
Beautiful model of the Hyundai i20 Coupe R5 from IXO - I am a collector ONLY of 1:43 from IXO - for me - their sealed models are lovely in the small scale (as my 1:18 collections are all opening parts) but IXO meets the quality for small scale sealed detail - very satisfied with it
when it arrived I was stunned just how good this model is the detail is amazing
Great model and excellent service; a limited edition, so a pity the previous owner didn’t take more care of the box!
