Yep, that's kind of what I thought too. Exceptional 123GT maybe, but not this.

I've seen that here before.
AUD plate reminded me at the time of a gun runner from the 1916 rebellion.

It is soon to be up for auction on Car and Classic. This should be a good barometer of the upper-end of its fair value. Classic cars seem to achieve good prices on this online auction website. I will follow it with interest.

AFF 793B sold yesterday for £5,250.

Looking at the photos, the underside was fairly rusty. It may have been surface rust only, but when the advert says it hasn't been raised on a ramp to check the extent of rust, personally I'd budget for extensive welding. In its favour though, the car looked fairly original.

Also no online MOT history, so must have been off the road for at least 15 years.

There wasn't a great deal of interest on the auction. It seems a £28,000 asking price might have been a tad optimistic when this first appeared for sale 6 months ago!

Too good to be true?

Why no under bonnet or interior pics?🤔
