Recently this model was offered for sale on ebay. Fortunately, due to a bit of controversy the model was withdrawn from sale before someone was suckered into buying it. You will notice in the description the seller states he is "selling this for a friend". For some reason this is often a statement made by con men (or women!) when selling on ebay.
The number 28c Jaguar was originally issued with grey wheels. It is not confirmed but is generally considered to be a "pre production" version. However, this is open to interpretation. Facts that we do know about this version are that the grey wheel variation had "3 lines of text" on the base plate, instead of the general issue version that had 4 lines of text. Also, the engine was painted the same brown as the body colour. Later versions had an unpainted engine. So in knowing these facts we look at the model offered for sale below.
