Description: Corgi Diecast ModelCC85902 - LTI TaxiCommonwealth Games Manchester 2002 1:36 Scale - Approx. 12cm length Corgi Toys was created by the Mettoy ("Metal Toy") company, who decided to produce a range of diecast toy vehicles as competition to Dinky, which had dominated the British market for many years. "Corgi Toys" were introduced in the UK in July 1956 and were manufactured in Swansea, Wales, for 27 years before the company went into liquidation. A management buy-out re-formed the company as Corgi Toys Limited in March 1984. In 1989, the management sold the Corgi brand to Mattel and the factory was retained under the name of "Microlink Industries Ltd". In 1995, Corgi regained its independence as a new company, Corgi Classics Limited, and moved to new premises in Leicester. The Corgi brand was acquired by Hornby in 2008. This model of a LTI taxi was produced in 2002 under the Corgi Classics Ltd. name. It is one of a special series of models produced by the company to commemorate the Commonwealth Games in Manchester. Finished in yellow, and featuring a photo of a high jumper, the model also features opening rear doors. Excellent, like-new condition. Box has very minor wear but no serious rips or splits. Outer box has been opened, but model has only been removed to take photos and is still secured to inner cardboard tray. See photos - all photos show actual item.
