Mazda RX 500 Matchbox 1971 Superfast 1:60 Made in England Loose

The diecast model depicts the futuristic Mazda RX 500, a concept car with a distinctly sporty silhouette. The body is finished in an intense orange colour, which emphasises the wedge-shaped bodywork and low-slung side profile. Particular attention is drawn to the transparent purple-tinted cabin, giving the model a striking appearance typical of concept car designs. A wide rear wing is fitted at the back, referencing the racing purpose and experimental character of the Mazda RX 500. The white chassis contrasts with the orange body and purple windows. The model is approximately 72 mm long and has a metal body with plastic components. This issue, catalogue number 66, was made in England in 1971 and represents the Superfast series. As a loose example, it may have signs of use, paint rubs or minor losses, but retains its recognisable shape and original colour scheme.

Used, collectible diecast model; after restoration it is like new (without a box, unless a box is shown in the photos). We restore models with 3D-printed replacements for missing parts and special paints made for restoring model cars. If the model shows signs of use, it has been intentionally left partly unrestored to keep its individual vintage character. The photos show the actual condition of the model.

The date given in the title or description is not always the date the casting was made. It may refer to the design of the model, the first casting series or the production of the real car. We give the dates the manufacturer states on the base. If in doubt, check all information against the photo of the base of the model.
