That is a great buy for £8 I paid a little more for mine at £11 which ain't too bad. Worth a lot more than what you gave.
That is the first issue Stobart mini, one to look out for is the second issue one with the sportpack arches that has red door mirrors. The standard issue has white mirrors but for some reason Corgi produced a handful with red mirrors. Again, I've seen these go for £45-50 but, I'm certain they can be had for a lot less if you happen to stumble across one like the one you got today

£8 is a bargain. They were going for over £100 at one time, but have settled down now.

The red mirrors version was only available direct from the Plant Brothers, which is why there aren't many about.

Yeah it's crazy money i want one of the beatles mini they are silly money!

You had to be quick to get the Beatles one. Not sure how long they were on sale for, but they were recalled because Corgi didn't have permission to use the Apple Corps logo on the roof.
