Looks a very clean car. Interesting that the June '69 reg is YPF428G my CF25 is a Nov 1968 reg as YPF409G.

Brett, isn't this your old car?

Yes it is Emmanuel, has been mentioned and talked about quite recently on this forum. Colour has changed twice since I sold it early 1980's. I know the seller quite well.

The car is in the Silverstone auction 4th November.

Sold at the auction for what I believe is a world record price for a Fastback, £ 136,400. Perhaps because it's a very rare original manual car, but interestingly wasn't sold from the Car and Classic website where the owner indicated to me that he would probably have accepted an offer close to £ 100,000, so he will be extremely pleased with the auction result ! Wish I could have afforded to keep it from the early 1980's !

Yes, great price that makes the £140k convertible look cheap!
