 DESCRIPTION

The Lotus Europa shown here is one of the second generation Impy 'Flyers' with speed-wheels (thank you Hot Wheels). The scale is somewhat larger than most and the wheels appear undersized. At the same time, all Impys have a certain charm ang the detailed engine bay is a plus shared with Tomica's Europa. The interior color is not one I would chose for a yellow car but then again, it is a toy car.
