1994 AC Ace Brooklands Transmission: manualMileage:53923The Brooklands Ace had made several public debuts before production finally got underway at AC's traditional manufacturing base at Brooklands, Surrey. Under guidance from Brian Angliss, ACs Managing Director, his team had taken seven years to develop the IAD-designed new model into production reality - no small task for any manufacturer, let alone a minnow such as AC Cars. Powered by Ford's 5.0 litre Mustang engine, the svelte body was hand formed in aluminium with an emphasis on luxury and performance and also enjoys an electric hood. In all, only 49 were produced (some say 46!) and this example is recognised as the first production car to leave the works. It was first registered in August 1994 and was kept for promotional use by AC in its early days, the car featured on the front cover, inside cover (with Angliss) and as 'Miss October' in the official 1995 AC Calendar. It was also the main image in the factory brochure and even on the front of the company Christmas card, examples of each are included in the sale. The previous owner had it for 25 years before the present owner bought it. L500 ACE also appeared on Top Gear in period, all nice history for a significant example of the breed. The car was bought directly from AC cars in June 1996, although it appears to have been originally ordered by F W Mays Ltd, AC dealers in Dorking who were possibly the first name in the logbook (the V5C registration document shows two previous keepers plus the current owner).Its first official stamped service (nine stamps in total) was with AC Cars in January 1996 at 1,120 miles, typical of a factory owned early production/promotional car. Second AC service was at 2,448 miles. By 1998, it had covered 20,670 miles, its last of seven services by AC themselves in 1999 showing a total of 37,115 miles. Two further stamps from Redline and Oldfields take it to 2017 by which time 52,745 miles had been covered. The leather-bound handbook is specific to this car and incorporates the service record. Further invoices show continued service care including new rear springs and dampers in 2017 and its latest MoT test certificate expires in June 2023. The current mileage reads 53,923 miles. It has a battery cut off switch and an immobiliser, both factory fitted, the latter being commissioned by current owner at time of purchase which is operational from the driver's seat. The history file accompanying this car includes the car's original build specification sheet, which lists the colour as Tourmaline Green Pearl with Magnolia/Green Connolly leather upholstery and Burr Elm inserts. Further correspondence confirms that L500 ACE was the first production car and its original and very appropriate registration number remains with the car and is included in the sale. The file also contains two Alpine stereo handbooks and there are two sets of keys. The condition is exceptional with a clean under-bonnet area, stainless steel rust-free chassis, good hood (electric and fully functional) and a clean and smart interior. This is a car which has been used, loved and well cared-for and is absolutely fabulous to drive!

1980 Mercedes-Benz 450 SLC Transmission: automaticMileage:21000The R107 and C107 Mercedes-Benz SL variants have long been revered amongst classic car devotees, being built to exacting engineering standards and with a subtle air of sophistication. These cars were built from 1971 through to 1989, the second longest single series ever produced by Mercedes-Benz after the G-Class. The SL (R107) was a two-seat convertible with standard soft top, optional hardtop and optional folding seats for the rear bench. Its sibling, the SLC (C107) or €˜SL Coupé' derivative, was a two-door hardtop Coupé with normal rear seats. It was launched at the Paris Motor Show and signalled a shift in management thinking at Stuttgart about what made a successful luxury Coupé. Sporting a longer wheelbase and sufficient interior room for four, the SLC was a sleek two-door car that combined the seating advantages of a four-door saloon with the style of a sporty Coupé.This very tidy example is presented in gold with cream velour interior. The car had been in the same family ownership right up until 2008 and comes with air conditioning, electric sunroof and a mere 21,000 miles from new which is warranted by the present owner. The car also comes with its all-original service pack complete with brochure and it has been part of a major private collection from 2009 until 2020. There are seven stamps in the book, all of which are with main dealerships. This is a lovely original example of this practical classic with low mileage and low ownership with good history.
1988 Excalibur Series V Four-Door Saloon Transmission: automaticMileage:37923With styling based on the 1928 Mercedes-Benz SSK, the Excalibur was designed by Brook Stevens for Studebaker who then formed a company to manufacture and market the cars. These handcrafted luxury cars are manufactured in Milwaukee, Wisconsin and are fitted with drive train and suspension systems from General Motors. These rear-wheel drive, four-speed, automatic cars are well equipped and proved popular with many American stars including Sonny and Cher, Tony Curtis and the comedienne Phyllis Diller who owned four of them.This extremely rare Series V, four-door, version is finished in Antique White and trimmed in Dove Grey leather with burgundy piping. The interior is complemented by a walnut dashboard and door cappings and the look is enhanced with wire wheels and an abundance of chrome. This low mileage example shows only two previous owners since its arrival in the UK in 2005. The history file for this Excalibur contains a V5 registration document and previous MoT test certificates, also included is the original price lists, specification sheets and a sales brochure. Realistically priced, this head turning luxury car has enormous kerb appeal and would be ideal as a wedding or prom car or just a wonderful addition to any car collection.Interested parties should note that the private registration plate shown is to be retained by the vendor and a new, age-related registration issued instead.
