Brace of Contax N Digitals on eBay

Not all that rare, but it's odd to see two at once (from different continents - one from Spain, one from California):

As always they hover around £1,600 and don't come with lenses. I wonder if there was ever e.g. an M42 - Contax N lens adapter? As I understand it the N Mount is almost the same as the EOS mount, which has a lot of adapters (and thus perhaps the old Contax / Yashica lenses could be made to fit), but I assume there was never any demand for third party Contax N Digital addons.
Of note there was also an auction a few days ago for an original Contax N Digital box(!) which went for about £5, and a while back there was a pre-production model that did not work and could not possibly be made to work that went for about £140 or so.
I wonder if there were ever any functional Pentax MZDs? They had a nice body at least.
