YATMING 1988 CHEVROLET LUMINA 1/64

I had assumed genuine bargains on Ebay were a thing of the past with so many sellers expecting top price for their items when clearly they aren't worth what they are asking! I was amazed at grabbing a mid 2000's Yatming 20 vehicle set for just 2.00 and all the contents were in mint unplayed with condition.
OK, the budget 800 Series aren't exactly the first choice for most collectors but they do have charm and very surprisingly my first experience of this range in my collection.
Despite its very basic cheapo appearance this is actually a licensed replica of a 1988 Chevrolet Lumina which at least makes it slightly interesting as again I don't think I have any model Luminas in my collection.
Paint work is metallic though you have to look very closely to see it and its interior runs to two front seats and...erm....thats it!
Mint and boxed.
