I thought it would be around 10M at least. The current owner takes the price up. Let's see where this will go, very interesting that he wants to sale it.

Another article, using the same pictures.

So, even with the miles and the very bad last shunt, it is still worth that much? These cars truly defy gravity. Love it!

If anyone remembers a while ago I did speculate that he may well sell his beloved Mac though I was hoping I was wrong. Mind his reasons may not be the ones I had in mind at the time.

I think it is. Last repair I think noting didn't leave not to check. And it has been driven, unlike the white one which has not been driven. No question about the condition. But anyway; I just hope this will end a good home.

Notice that it's still appearing in Octane this month.

Over-estimated value?

I don't think so. Perhaps the car is too known or something. But 10M is much of money these days.

There are a few errors (unsurprisingly) in the Daily Fail article....
