It will be interesting to see what price this ends at
Yep - even more interest for me (although maybe somebody can let me know how this works) is that this is D628 UCW, whereas mine is D629 UCW (and lwb, weinrot (colour), grey check and generally under 'rust' attack !)

£17,750 !!! - almost inspired to go sort the rust on mine. Although just manoeuvered (not driven, family effort required) into garage to attempt replacing starter. Maybe consider rust in the New Year...
And now available "privately" for £19,495 ono.
Assuming it actually passed hands of course. Without knowing or seeing it I shouldn't judge it, beyond what I have already said about wanting to see what it looked like before the re-spray. There is a 1987 white one just under it which is showing #60k !! So you can compare.
There is something very appealing about a mint original 460, but it does open the door to being blinded by a bit of polish.
If this is new seller, then fair play - they took the risk to buy from auction and try to flip it and make a quick profit.
£60K - don't know what to say! Except what are those fancy bits of wood trim on door, surely the 460 didn't go in for this malarky!
I see the brown one is now listed at £18,950, second thoughts or trying a different sale route.
£60k for 460 300D i cant think anyone would buy it for that, looks like its had a good paint job but personally I would struggle to justify offering even a1/3rd of the asking. price.

Stew(?) of interest to me also too as i start to budget for the cost of rectifyiing advance tin worm in my '88 3dr G300D, a understanding of the potentail return is helpful, I am not planning on a quick sale but want to try and keep restoration budget close to market value in case cirumstances change.
As I am learning the hard way with my Stag restoration until you strip it back and get to bare metal its difficult to understand the true picture of what will need replacing. Stag cost has risen by 25% when uncovering previous work that needs rectification.
