(1920-75) and thence by descent.Built by Vickers Armstrong of Barrow, Thorough was the one of the third batch of 'T' Class submarines to be built and the only R.N. vessel to bear this name to date. Launched on 30th October 1943, she displaced 1,560 tons (submerged), was 276ft long and was commissioned in March 1944. She served in the Far East for much of her wartime career where she plagued the Japanese, sinking twenty-seven Japanese sailing vessels, seven coasters, a small Japanese vessel, a Japanese barge, a small Japanese gunboat, a Japanese trawler, and the Malaysian sailing vessel Palange. In August 1945, in company with H.M.S. Taciturn, she attacked Japanese shipping and shore targets off northern Bali where Thorough sank a Japanese coaster and a sailing vessel with gunfire. On 16 December 1957 Thorough returned to H.M.S. Dolphin, Portsmouth Dockyard, after first circumnavigation by a submarine, and was scrapped at Dunston on Tyne on 29 June 1962.
of 'diamond' shape, heavily cast in brass and depicting a prowling panther, partially finished in polychrome, with name and naval crown over and motto 'We Strike to Kill', with brass suspension brackets to reverse -- 9 x 8½in. (23 x 21.5cm.)Provenance: Stanley William 'Chimp' Clayden DSC, R.N. (1920-75) and thence by descent.Built by Cammell Laird and launched on 15th February 1945, she was commissioned on 13th May - five days after VE Day. The only RN vessel to bear this name to date, Sanguine was an 'S' Class submarine of 990 tons (submerged); she took part in the Coronation Fleet Review of 1953, but saw no active service and was sold to the Israeli navy in 1958 and renamed Rahav. She was cannibalised for spares in 1968 to refit her sister, Tanin (formerly Springer) which had seen action in 1967. The official badge for this submarine is the head of a trident, and, being the only vessel to have ever held this name, it seems that her officers still felt the need to personalise the badge with at least one other similar unofficial example known of in a private collection.

1962 Sunbeam Alpine Series II, 1592 cc Registration number HHD 411 Chassis number B9110652 - OD - HRD Engine number B9110652 - OD - HRD The Sunbeam Alpine was produced by the Rootes Group from 1953 to 1955, and then 1959 to 1968. It was the first vehicle from Sunbeam-Talbot to bear the Sunbeam name since the Rootes Group bought Clément-Talbot and later Sunbeam from its receiver in 1935. The first Alpines were based on the Hillman 14 and not very successful so in 1956 Kenneth Howes and Jeff Crompton were tasked with doing a complete redesign, with the goal of producing a dedicated sports car aimed principally at the US market. Typically of the Rootes group there were many revisions, Series I to IV. Total production numbered around 70,000. Production stopped shortly after the Chrysler takeover of the Rootes Group. The Series I was built on a modified floor plan from a Hillman Husky estate car with running gear from a Sunbeam Rapier, it used a 1,494 cc engine. It had dual downdraft carburetors, a soft top that could be hidden by special integral covers and the first available wind-up side windows offered in a British sports car of that time. The Series II of 1960 featured an enlarged 1,592 cc engine producing 80 bhp and revised rear suspension, but there were few other changes. When it was replaced in 1963, 19,956 had been made. When tested by The Motor magazine in 1960, they recorded a top speed of 98.6 mph, it accelerated from 0-60 mph in 13.6 seconds and cost £1,110. This example, which has been partially restored, and is still attached the rotation spit, was first registered on the 1st March 1962 in Wedgewood Blue to Peter Ellis & Sons of Atlas Works in Batley before being sold to Maxwell Betts in 1963 in Huddlesfield, he later moved to Hull, in 1967 Alan Coultas of Hull had it before John Dawson acquired it is 1973. At some point its colour was changed to red and some 20 years ago John began and then abandoned a restoration. Sold with a fibreglass hardtop, the original doors, the R.F.60, V5 and V5C this pretty car will require substantial restoration and prospective purchasers should satisfy themselves on how many parts are with the car.
