Manufacturer description

The BMC Mobile Units were a very small number of vehicles commissioned by the company's Nuffield Exports Service Manager, George King in 1958 for various company uses. Here, our replica of the BMC Mobile Unit is as used as a mobile booking office by the tour operator Harris's, registered BMC 25. The highly decorative graphics featuring destination diversity from palm trees to mountains indicate that you could book a coach tour to several European destinations, enjoy a race weekend at Le Mans or if you preferred to stay on home soil, you could opt for London or Blackpool!

The front cabin interior is black while the rear floor area is moulded in red. To the exterior, the colourful images against the white background also include a central red band which runs round the vehicle.

The 1:76 scale OO model comes on a plinth with a clear case lid and Oxford wrap.
