Do not mistake Harvey and Keith Harvie. It is Keith Harvie who has a fabulous collection of Dinky Toys and has sold many extremely rare models.

this is my pre-production bus (the one on the box) it is one of three that were made by the R&D dept at corgi before production . the production bus is the one not on the box

from the picture you can see that the pre pro was used to take the picture for the box but the marker lights were changed to a thermomatic air conditioning unit in production. also the silver strip on the lower edge is cast on the production bus.

I have also two bare castings that were used as flow moulding checks .

there are quite a few pre pros out there as corgi had an auction in 1995 .

did not get these from there .

He should trash it, he has already spend more in eBay fees than the value of the model.

Well, he does not have a store. Mine costs me about $50.00 per month. 5 cents to list an item. Only about 20cents to list an auction and then it relists for free if it does not sell. Then final value fees when it does sell but that is also only once. He may not have spent very much money yet, even if he has listed it three times. Would only be a few dollars max.

Still going then. The seller must have seen this topic by now and now trying to sell at that price with no photo, silly.

Been following this one and if that is an "original mega rare" then I'm The Duke of Binns Road.

As a Dinky collector this type of model/issue generates absolutely no enthusiasm with me at all!

I agree Hugh. There is another, not a pre pro, up for sale right now at £4.99 with a box.
