It's the cost reduced version of the C128 (C128CR)

That looks like a PAL C128D mobo that someone repurposed for a C128. It was used in the 220v plastic cased C128D's along with a 1571 board sold in Europe while the C128DCR metal combined board version was sold in the USA.

The PAL C128D with plastic case used the same motherboard as the C128 did. They never used this cost reduced board as far as I know. The plastic C128D had been replaced by the metal version (C128DCR) by that time.

As far as I know, both NTSC and PAL versions exist. I can't see which this one is. Youtube has a few videos. www.youtube.com/shorts/Cm4hU7yuxykwww.youtube.com/watch?v=lbrbFFjL7aUProbably difficult to tell apart from an ordinary flat C128 without opening the machine, 1986 ROMs might reveal it, but I am not so sure how reliable indicator it is; earlier flat C128 combined with 1986 ROMs might exist as well.
Really a rare machine.
