I have seen a number of cases, where, surprisingly, the minhogim of 
Spanish and Portuguese Sepharadic communities discussed there are the 
same as those of Yekkes. The Western European Sepharadim are a 
community parallel to the Yekkes among Ashkenazim in a way and to a 
degree, in that they preserved certain old Spanish minhogim like the 
Yekkes have preserved old Ashkenaz ones. So that points to old 
traditions of Sefard and  Ashkenaz being in accordance with regard to 
those matters.
