Looks like it's been re-sprayed in the wrong colour. The decals don't look right either. Piki, send him a set of your decals and tell him to do it properly 😁.

Seems like I got a good deal from Bill Head in Preston all those years ago. NOS with a tiny mark low down on one side - £75 with tap and cap

Kept it in a cupboard for over 20 years and now on the other 400/4 which I’ll be parting with soon so that I can reassemble the ‘Scottish’ one

I picked a new one still in the box on uk eBay about 10 years ago for 200 odd quid, I can’t imagine what I would have to pay now.
