As it's silver it's either a 270 or a 271 (if this is an original '68 - '78 model). The 271 has hard wheels/tyres and no little red spinning blade on the rear wheels.

A mint boxed 270 has fetched £300, but this does very much depend on condition of both the model and box. It also depends on the style of box, be it blister box or cardboard with window. The 271's are fetching up to about £60 or so, again for mint model & box.

No box, not mint, you're looking at possibly £10 - £20 I would have thought, although I've seen them go for more and less.

ok, thanks, just clearing out drawers today and there it was, no box and not mint so about 20 quid then, back in the drawer it goes. lol

That brings back memories, back in 1985 I bought both the original gold version, and the silver version that followed it, at a swapmeet. Both were unboxed but polished up well and I still have them. Cost? £3.50 for the gold, £4 for the silver.

I've often considered buying repro boxes for them but have never got round to it! (I believe these are about £7 each.)
