Corgi: 1/43 Triumph Stag Mk2 (British Racing Green) – Diecast Model
The Stag automatic modelled was built on February 17th, 1976 and dispatched
to London via BL’s regional agents, Henlys, on April 2nd. It was then sold by
dealers H.R. Owen of Golders Green London to its first owner, solicitor Jeffrey
Greenwood who, remarkably, retained it for almost thirty years. He had it looked
after fastidiously by Stag specialist Hart
Racing Services and this included a comprehensive engine rebuild completed on
August 19th, 1982 when the car was showing approximately 30,000 miles.
Since then it’s had two further owners and has been extensively refurbished including another engine rebuild. Current owner, long time Stag enthusiast Chris Longman from Cornwall, purchased it from Suffolk Sports Cars in November 2017 having seen it on their stand at the NEC Classic Car Show and been impressed by both the car’s condition and its detailed history file. It is considered one of the best and most original Stags in the UK.
