The First but not the last.

I've just realised this:

My first Rolls-Royce model was a Matchbox (#24).

I still have it.

It cost me 20 pence (I think) back in 1974.

And my first real one thirty six years later was exactly the same colour - but cost considerably more.

Strange coincidence...

After #24 I got a gold coloured Corniche convertible model (still have that too).

I guess I need to find a real one now.

Maybe with wire Hooper wheels.
