1968 Corgi Toys Chitty Chitty Bang Bang Model 266

This wonderful vintage model car is a 1968 Corgi Toys Chitty Chitty Bang Bang Model 266, and dates to the release of the musical of the same name. The musical is based on Ian Fleming's novel Chitty Chitty Bang Bang: The Magical Car (published in 1964).

No.266 Chitty Chitty Bang Bang is complete with four figures based on the main characters from the film; Caractacus Potts, Truly Scrumptious, Jeremy & Jemima Potts.

The car's wings are released via the handbrake next to Caractacus. The wings are folded back manually to close, ensuring that the handbrake is in the correct position to prevent them springing out again.

Approximate Dimensions:

• Length (including tail): 14.5 cm
• Width (including wings):  11.2 cm
• Height (Including figures): 5.4 cm

The car is original and in pretty good unboxed condition. It does have some surface scratches and blemishes, and some areas of paint loss on the wings, tail, and the periphery of the car body: see photos
