A rare 3-door version of Ford's capable 4-wheel drive sports saloon from the eighties.Offered as Ford’s answer to the total traction trend in the mid-eighties at the 1985 Geneva Motor ShowCologne 2.8 V6-engine producing 162bhp with a superb V6 soundtrack Rugged Ferguson four-wheel-drive transmissionStaggering all-weather grip, a balanced chassis and speed to rival the trend-setting QuattroOnly 35,010km by its one French owner complete with a UK NOVADashing three-door styling shared by its Cosworth sibling and presenting in great overall conditionFord's all-wheel drive family hatch was developed to extend the usability of its household name with a brace of driven axles and a tough, naturally-aspirated V6. So popular did the concept prove in its day that the XR4x4 superseded the rear-wheel drive XR4i that came before it. It seemed British buyers of the eighties were becoming enthusiastic by the notion of added traction. You can understand why, given that back in 1985, when the XR4x4 was first shown with its twin viscous differential-equipped driveline at the Geneva motor show, the four-wheel drive segment was comparatively tiny. The XR4x4 promised familiar hatch usability with added year-round dependability in a familiar package. It was unique.The car packed a punch, too, Ford's 2.8-litre Cologne V6 providing the early three-door with 162hp at 5,700rpm, meaning the Sierra XR4x4 could hit 60mph in 8.5 seconds - ranking it alongside some of the era's most interesting hatchbacks, including the much smaller 1.6 Peugeot 205 GTI. Obviously Ford's ambition for the Sierra was different, but its rear-bias, all-wheel drive system meant there was still fun to be had in the 1,262kg machine.Obviously smitten when the Sierra 2.8i, 4X4 was launched at the Geneva Motor Show the cars French first owner went and bought one and kept it all his life until purchased by our vendor and imported to the UK recently. The early cars utilised the 3-door Sierra Cosworth bodyshell and were primarily left-hand drive. He only covered some 35,010km (22,000miles) in the car over the 35-years of his ownership Since its arrival in the UK, it’s been subject to a full mechanical health check that included a complete replacement of the fuel system with a new tank, fuel filters and pump. The cooling system was totally gone through with a new radiator and hoses. It had a full service including oil and filter, spark plugs, HT leads, distributor and rotor arm and was treated to new wiper blades, fuses, battery and bulbs.Low mileage, dashing three-door styling shared by its Cosworth sibling and presenting in great overall condition. SpecificationMake: FORDModel: SIERRA 2.8I 4X4Year: 1985Chassis Number: WFOEXXGBBEFM36260Registration Number: 5659RT61Drive Side: Left-hand DriveClick here for more details and images

A rather special F1 Spider in Bianco with substantial upgrades.An amazing UK-supplied, right-hand drive F1 gearbox example that’s been extensively upgradedUpgrades include a Stradale gearbox, engine re-map, performance exhaust with 'De-Cat' pipes, F430 alloy wheels, aluminium brake calipers etcNow finished in Bianco with full black leather and showing 40,900 milesGood history file including all the usual manuals and invoices detailing recent expenditureOffered at a guide that seems great value for money when you consider the investment made into this carThe 360 Spider is Ferrari's twentieth road-going convertible and the 360 was always designed with a Spider variant in mind. Since removing the roof of a coupé reduces the torsional rigidity, the 360 was built for strength in other areas and Ferrari designers strengthened the sills, stiffened the front of the floor pan, and redesigned the windscreen frame. The rear bulkhead had to be stiffened to cut out engine noise from the cabin. The convertible's necessary dynamic rigidity is provided by additional side reinforcements and a cross brace in front of the engine. Passenger safety is ensured by a strengthened windscreen frame and roll bars. The use of light aluminium throughout results in the Spider weighing in only 60 kg (130 lb) heavier than the coupé.Offered here is an amazing UK-supplied, right-hand drive F1 gearbox example that’s been extensively upgraded. Upgrades include a Stradale gearbox, engine re-map, performance exhaust with 'De-Cat' pipes, F430 alloy wheels, aluminium brake calipers etc. During the upgrade process, the decision was taken to finish the car in Bianco which is complemented by a full black leather interior and the odometer now reads 40,900 miles.There are numerous invoices on file detailing the extensive work and expenditure this particular 360 has had lavished on it over the years. Quite simply we encourage interested parties to come and see this example at the NEC to fully take in and understand the value for money on offer here.SpecificationMake: FERRARIModel: 360 F1 SPIDERYear: 2002Chassis Number: ZFFYT53C000127177Registration Number: MD51 CYOEngine Number: 65614 Odometer Reading: 40900 MilesMake: Interior Colour: Black LeatherClick here for more details and images

A superbly engineered ultimate Land Rover, created by the brains behind marque experts 'LOF'.A labour of love turning a 2011 Defender Puma XS into the ultimate performance Land RoverFord Performance 5.0-litre 'Coyote' Gen 2 V8 engine with 450bhp and 550Nm - a far superior V8 installation upgrade than using a Chevrolet LS-engineGalvanised Marsland (OEM) chassis with the V8 mounted in the exact position that the diesel engine was fittedAshcroft Transmissions created a custom, one-of-one, manual 6-speed gearbox, designed and installed to fit to the V8 engine and accept the standard Defender transfer boxLOF EXTREME-spec output shaft, coupled to an upgraded LT230 LR transfer box rebuilt by Winchester Gears, fitted with larger bearings, stronger shafts and an ATB centre differentialRebuilt front & rear axles, new Winchester gears, automatic torque biasing differentials front and back, LOF 6-pot big brake kit and HD driveshaftsFull 'Lucari' interior and other upgrades (aluminium hinges, door handles, etc.)Test proven for some 500 miles, professionally detailed, ceramic coated, plus an MOT inspection was completed by a main dealerFollowing the successful reception of the all-new Land Rover Discovery in 1989, it was decided to give the traditional Land Rover its own name: 'Defender'. Despite, or perhaps because of, being recognisably related to the very first Land Rover of 1948, the Defender retained a steadfastly loyal customer base, indeed, in the UK in 2013 it even managed to out-sell the Range Rover.Big enough for all the family plus a brace of Labradors and luggage in the back, long-wheelbase Defenders remain highly usable, long-term keepers thanks to their practicality and their personality. For decades, the long-wheelbase model has found favour with diverse buyers, from armies and police forces to country hotels and farmers. In more recent times, Defenders have transcended to a new and different level, with tuning companies adapting them into high-performance driving machines, still with all the innate character, but with some startling new additions!The Defender 110 presented here is quite exceptional. Starting life as a 2011 TDCi XS model with the four-cylinder, 2.4-litre Puma unit, this latest engine was coupled to a revised, quieter transfer case and a new six-speed manual gearbox, which allowed a longer top gear for quiet, efficient long-distance cruising.Enter 'LOF' of Leicestershire, a specialist Land Rover manufacturing business, run by a chap whose Land Rover knowledge is quite simply encyclopaedic. Renowned for their engineering prowess, they manufacture and sell superb, uprated clutches, brakes, and other components for Land Rovers. 'Attention to detail' dictate how they manufacture and this ethos we see with this vehicle project.LOF set about creating the ultimate 110, to showcase the best of their products, plus some other choice offerings, going down the route of installing, at the heart of this vehicle, an American V8 engine. Many Land Rover tuners have done this, but to no greater effect than we see here - a more adaptable, sophisticated Ford-based 5.0-litre 'Coyote' Gen 2, V8 engine was utilised. Burbling through an adjustable exhaust value system, it is as tuneful as you would want from such a special engine. Around this, the rest of the vehicle was enhanced with specialist, high-quality products to create a super-powerful, yet very driveable high-performance 4x4. Properly designed, built, tested, and even ceramic coated, this is one hell of a Land Rover.With an amazing specification sheet (full details on request), an exemplary finish and attention to detail, this 110, nicknamed 'The DefStang', offers presence and performance to rival that of the £143,370 G63 'G-Wagon' or indeed Land Rover's own £150,000 Defender Works V8 70th Edition.SpecificationMake: LAND ROVERModel: DEFENDER 110 COYOTE 5.0 V8Year: 2011Chassis Number: SALLDHMS7BA824808Registration Number: V8 VBNTransmission: Manual Engine Number: 101119033556244DTDrive Side: Right-hand DriveMake: RHDInterior Colour: Bespoke Click here for more details and images

Pair: Chief Steward A. W. Wiltshire, B.E.M., Mercantile Marine, who survived several days in an open boat following the loss of the Houlder Brothers’ ship Beacon Grange to torpedo attack in the North Atlantic in April 1941, for which he was awarded the British Empire Medal, whilst in his 60th year British War and Mercantile Marine War Medals (A. W. Wiltshire.) somewhat later issues (see footnote), nearly extremely fine (2) £70-£90 --- Note: The recipient’s British Empire Medal was sold in these rooms in April 2006. B.E.M. London Gazette 4 June 1943. The original recommendation states: ‘For long service in dangerous waters. He was serving in the S.S. Beacon Grange when she was torpedoed in April 1941 and acquitted himself well.’ Arthur William Wiltshire, who was born at Southampton in 1883, appears to have entered the Mercantile Marine in the Edwardian era, and served during the Great War as a Chief Steward in the Royston Grange - having lost his original Mercantile Marine and British War Medals aboard the Beacon Grange, he was issued with replacements in June 1943. The exact date he joined the ship’s company of Houlder Brothers’ Empire Grange remains uncertain, but it is not without interest that prior to her sinking in April 1941, she had already sustained severe damage as a result of two bomb hits received off the coast of Scotland in August 1940 (a full account of this incident appears in the Houlders’ history Sea Hazard 1939-45). As verified by Wiltshire’s recommendation for his subsequent award of the B.E.M., however, he was very much aboard her when she was torpedoed and sunk in the North Atlantic by the U-552 on 27 April 1941: ‘The liner Beacon Grange, Captain A. B. Friend, left Loch Ewe on the north-west coast of Scotland on 26 April 1941. At about 2.20 on the following morning she was attacked by enemy aircraft which presumably radioed her position to a submarine as she was intercepted at 2.30 on the following afternoon (the 27th) and hit with three torpedoes. The submarine then surfaced at a distance of approximately 500 yards and members of her crew took photographs. Meanwhile those on board the liner went to the boats as she was sinking rapidly. The Beacon Grange was finally sunk by gunfire. Two boats got away. The captain’s, containing 41 all told, was picked up by the British corvette Gladiolus two days later. The second boat with the First Officer and 38 others was picked up six days later by the Belgian steam trawler Edward Anseele. Two engineers were killed by the explosion of the torpedoes and several men were wounded, but there were no fatalities during the time that the boats were adrift (A Dictionary of Disasters at Sea refers). At the time of submitting his official report into the sinking, Captain A. B. Friend recommended several crew members for their good work in his boat, but was not then aware of the fate of the First Officer’s boat. Wiltshire is not among those listed by Friend, so we must assume he ‘acquitted himself well’ in the latter boat. The captain of the U-552 was Erich Topp, who was awarded the Knight’s Cross for his services in the first half of 1941, and who added Oak Leaves and Swords to his decoration in the following year. Wiltshire, who was 59 years of age when recommended for his B.E.M., next joined the El Argentino, and was lucky to avoid a second sinking when she was sent to the bottom of the North Atlantic by enemy aircraft on 26 July 1943, having come ashore from her for leave earlier that month. His final wartime commission was aboard the Rippingham Grange from September 1943 until the end of hostilities, with the exception of a brace of voyages in the Cardesa between April and June 1944. Additionally entitled to the 1939-45 Star, Atlantic Star, and War Medal 1939-45, he retired in August 1949.

1967 Mercedes Benz 250 SE Auto CabrioletMake: MercedesModel: 250 SE Cabriolet Year: 1967Mileage: 89000VIN: 11102322087114Configuration: Right Hand DriveRegistration: NRK881ETransmission: automatic Just 954 Mercedes-Benz 250 SE Cabriolets were built between 1965 and 1967, so even in their native Germany, they were rare machines. Here, they were even scarcer - it's believed that just 26 came to the UK in right-hand drive form. This is one of those cars, registered in January 1967. After its initial owner, the following one kept it from February 1969 until 2021 - the sales invoice to her being present in the paperwork. £7000 has recently been spent on recommissioning, including £149 on a fuel sender unit, £1330 on a stainless steel exhaust, £611 on a fuel injection pump, and £2400 on labour. The new parts fitted are detailed in an invoice. Included in the well-organised history folder is the current V5C, original green logbook, and Mercedes-Benz handbook and other booklets, including the bonus of a commercially-produced hardback work on the W110, W111 and W112 models. The MoT certificates include the current one, which expires in August 2022, as well as previous ones from 1990 and 2001. A handful of invoices from the 1980s to 2001 show that the transmission was reconditioned in 2001 at 88,638 miles, at a cost of £1030.92. One interesting curio in the file is an unstamped and unused fuel rationing coupon booklet dating from the 1973 fuel crisis. A tonneau cover is also present, as is the spare wheel, battery charger, a jack and a wheel brace. Externally, the car is in very good condition, with a clean, well-fitting hood and tidy chrome (save for some lifting on the top of the radiator grille, around the badge mount). The inside is generally well-preserved but there is damage to the wood on the dash-top - a common problem on these cars caused by sunlight through the windscreen - and a missing carpet in the driver's footwell. The leather seats show some patination commensurate with the car's age. PLEASE SEE BELOW FOR VIDEO PRODUCED 20TH OCTOBER BY ACA OF THIS CAR.
