This is a genuine Cadbury Coupe.
I tried to buy this one a few years ago but was too slow on the cash.
I have since bought another 1 of them.
There was only ever 3 made.
Special ordered from Cadbury Chocolates in 1971, They ordered 3 at the end of VG model run, CAL built 3 as SOA (Special Order Accepted) all in Silver Mauve Metalic) (Purple).
They are in fact the last 3 off the production line.
1 went to Adelaide, 1 went to Melbourne, 1 went to Sydney, they where given as a bonus to highest selling rep in each state.
The one pictured is the Sydney car (I think last one off line) and is the one I tried to buy, The one I have I am pretty sure is the Adelaide car (still trying to confirm, as I can so far only trace it back as far as a Canberra owner).
