Looks nice and complete, definitely worth a look. Candy Blue was a late model colour, 1982, which would make it a Y reg or later if it hung around in a show room. Check against the reg if you want it to be period correct.
If its an import check that carbs and exhausts are not marked 4L2 as these are both restricted. You looking for 4L1 ideally.
At the end of the day though if you like it, buy it!

Does look nice. If i wanted one like this I think if it was me I'd paint up your 250 Dusty to look like this... cheaper than this one and a known quantity if looking for originality etc.
