Whilst moseying around Yorkshire over the Easter weekend I saw a die-cast car completely new to me. It was in a cabinet at Crimple Hall Antiques near Harrogate.

Having done a bit of homework it turns out to be an old Corgi die-cast called either the Morris Bullnose Kinky Gear or Kinky Beats.
Looking like a trio from the Evil Dead, the three pop stars are apparently supposed to represent the popular beat bands of swinging Sixties.
With an obvious nod towards the Fab Four this toy would look great next to the die-cast Yellow Submarine or even those other pop cars, the toy Monkeemobile and the Hardy Boys Silver Ghost.
Can anyone oblige us with a picture of them together?
