I assume that the factory would be starting with mill finish aluminum which would have a considerably smoother finish than what is currently on this car in order to polish it for £8030? It wouldn’t surprise me if the cost was 2-3x to bring this one back *if that is what the new owner intends to do.*.

Perhaps he (she) likes it like this, or perhaps they felt it was a good starting point for primer and paint? Who knows, just seems like very strong money the way it is. Congratulations to the buyer for getting what they wanted in any case!
