I think the record is £250k, albeit restored…
I've heard this said before but I don't think there is any proof of it and I do wonder if it was circulated at a time when someone was trying to inflate the price of another one coming up for sale.
The best example (and it was like new and a lovely specification) seems to have been the one sold, iirc, at Pebble Beach and that went (again, if I am not mistaken) for $120,000 a decade or so ago.
For the past few years, the grey one has been floating around but has failed to reach the reserve at five (?) auctions; the last one being a few weeks ago where it stalled at £28,000. There were only two parties bidding from circa £17,000 to where it stopped at £28k and it didn't sell.
KBF 267D was a good purchase for someone, in my opinion.
I'm sure people who know far more than I will have their own opinions of the Moss box Plus 8s but they seem
keenly priced as well.
