2007 Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren 722 Edition CoupéRegistration no. not registeredChassis no. WDD1993761M001241•Limited edition model commemorating Mercedes-Benz's famous 1955 Mille Miglia victory•First registered to Daimler Chrysler AG•Present ownership since November 2007•Odometer reading 4,998 miles / 8,044kms•Offered at No ReserveFootnotes:Manufactured between 2003 and 2010, their new supercar allowed Mercedes-Benz and its then Formula 1 partner, McLaren, to showcase their collective experience in the development, construction, and production of high-performance sports cars and, just like its legendary 300 SLR predecessor of 1955, it incorporated technological developments that were ahead of their time. Yet the term 'supercar' does not do full justice to the SLR, which, its peerless performance notwithstanding, is a luxurious and finely engineered Gran Turismo in the best traditions of Mercedes-Benz. The heart of any car is its engine, and that of the SLR McLaren is truly outstanding. Produced at Mercedes-Benz's AMG performance division, it is a 5.5-litre, 24-valve, supercharged V8 producing 617bhp, making it one of the most powerful engines ever found in a series-produced road-going sports car. Impressive though this peak horsepower figure is, it is the torque produced by this state-of-the-art 'blown' motor that is its most remarkable feature. The torque curve is almost flat: there is already 440lb/ft by 1,500 rpm and well over 500lb/ft between 3,000 and 5,000 revs. Needless to say, the SLR McLaren delivers performance figures that are still among the best in its class. Taking just 3.8 seconds to sprint from 0-100km/h (62mph), it passes the 200km/h (125mph) mark after 10.6 seconds, and from a standing start takes just 28.8 seconds to reach 300km/h (186mph). The two-seater has a top speed of 334km/h (207 mph). A 2007 model first registered in November 2006 to Daimler Chrysler AG in Stuttgart, the car offered here is an example of the '722 Edition'. The '722' refers to the victory in the 1955 Mille Miglia of Stirling Moss and his co-driver Denis Jenkinson, whose Mercedes-Benz 300 SLR had the starting number '722' (indicating a start time of 7:22 a.m.). Delivered to the current owner in November 2007, by which time it had recorded circa 8,000 kilometres, the car is finished in stunning Crystal Antimon Grey Metallic with semi-aniline black leather interior. Standard equipment includes an Audio 30 APS sound system; garage door opener; passenger compartment protection; and larger (19') front brake discs, while a CD changer; mobile phone pre-installation; and 'XL' size front seats are among the factory options fitted. The car is offered with copies of previous German registration papers, copy certificate of conformity and a copy of the supplying Mercedes-Benz dealer's invoice from November 2007. The car recently received new batteries and, although the engine turns over, it did not start and will require attention. If the car is to remain in the UK it is subject to import VAT of 20% and will require registering.Lot to be sold without reserve.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: Ω NΩ VAT on imported items at the prevailing rate on Hammer Price and Buyer's Premium.N MOTORCYCLESIf purchased by a UK resident, this machine is subject to a NOVA declaration, whilst the responsibility of submitting the NOVA rests with the Buyer to do so, Bonhams will facilitate the process by engaging an agent (SHIPPIO) to undertake the NOVA and C88 (customs) application if applicable on the Buyer's behalf.

Lot 221
1963 Lagonda Rapide Sports SaloonRegistration no. 241 EXN (see text)Chassis no. LR/121/R•One of only 55 made•In-period factory conversion to ZF five-speed manual transmission•Factory-fitted replacement engine in 1966•Present ownership since 2011•Offered at No ReserveFootnotes:Aston Martin revived the Lagonda name in 1961 with the luxurious Rapide four-door sports saloon. Powered by a 4.0-litre version of the DB5's twin-cam six, the Rapide certainly lived up to its name with brisk acceleration and a 130mph-plus top speed. Extremely expensive, and therefore exclusive, only 55 were made, almost all of which were equipped with Borg Warner three-speed automatic transmission. According to the copy guarantee form on file, this Lagonda Rapide was sold new through the Brooklands agency to Babcock & Wilcox Ltd of Euston Road, London. It was registered as '241 EXN' and was finished, then as now, in Midnight Blue with a deep red leather interior. Works records detail the car's factory maintenance through its early years and confirm that it returned to the works in June 1965 to be up-rated with a ZF five-speed manual gearbox. An option on late DB4s and standard on the DB5, the ZF 'box was a significant improvement over the three-speed automatic and even the optional four-speed David Brown manual unit. Eight months later, '121/R' was fitted by the factory with a replacement engine, it is likely that this is the current engine (stamped 400/117).A car well known to the Bonhams team, the Lagonda first appeared at Bonhams' sale at the Larz Anderson Auto Museum in Brookline, Massachusetts in May 2006 (Lot 315) when it was noted as having had only two owners from new. The current owner purchased the Rapide at the subsequent Bonhams Greenwich Concours d'Elegance sale in June 2011 (Lot 341). At that time the car was described as in generally original and correct order, apparently never having undergone a complete restoration. It was also noted that at some time the paintwork had been refurbished to a high standard and that it still presented well; likewise the interior, which was said to exhibit a good balance of new and original leather sympathetically refurbished, while the boot had been completely re-trimmed. Long overlooked, these elegant Lagondas are now being appreciated for the value they represent when compared to their Aston Martin contemporaries. The car is offered with the Bonhams sales invoice from 2011 and an old State of New Hampshire Registration Certificate. There is no UK registration document with this Lot and it should be noted that the registration number '241 EXN' is not recorded in the HPI database. Having been stored in recent years, the car may require some re-commissioning prior to road use. The car will attract the low import duty rate of 5% if it is to remain in the UK and require re-registering.Lot to be sold without reserve.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: * N* VAT on imported items at a preferential rate of 5% on Hammer Price and the prevailing rate on Buyer's Premium.N MOTORCYCLESIf purchased by a UK resident, this machine is subject to a NOVA declaration, whilst the responsibility of submitting the NOVA rests with the Buyer to do so, Bonhams will facilitate the process by engaging an agent (SHIPPIO) to undertake the NOVA and C88 (customs) application if applicable on the Buyer's behalf.

Lot 222
From the Estate of the Late Peter Blond1974 Bentley Corniche Two-door SaloonCoachwork by H J Mulliner, Park Ward LtdRegistration no. 107 HYLChassis no. CBH17786•One of only 151 Bentley Corniche models built•Present ownership since 2004•Maintained by Rolls-Royce and Bentley specialist N Sandell•Original instruction handbooksFootnotes:'The name Corniche has been chosen for the latest coachbuilt models because it symbolises their higher cruising speeds and their ability to cover greater distances with the minimum of fatigue for driver and passengers,' explained Rolls-Royce in 1971, referring to the magnificent cliff-top roads of France's Côte d'Azur, for decades a favoured destination among Rolls-Royce and Bentley owners. Introduced in March that year, the Corniche was a revised version of the Mulliner, Park Ward-bodied two-door variants of the Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow and Bentley T-Series saloons, themselves notable as the Crewe factory's first unitary construction cars. In Corniche form Rolls-Royce's well-tried 6.7-litre V8 produced around 10% more power than standard and proved capable of propelling the car to a top speed in excess of 120mph with sports car-beating acceleration to match. The model proved a major success for Rolls-Royce; periodically revised and up-dated, it remained in production well into the 1990s, the last (Convertible) examples being delivered in 1995. For much of the time that the Corniche was in production, a Bentley was regarded as little more than a slightly cheaper alternative to a Rolls-Royce. This famous marque had yet to re-establish its reputation as maker of some of the world's fastest and most exciting sports saloons and Grand Tourers, a process that commenced in 1982 with launch of the Mulsanne Turbo. Consequently, the Bentley Corniche was produced in much smaller numbers than its Rolls-Royce equivalent, despite being – arguably – the more handsome of the two. Up to 1984, when the Bentley Corniche was renamed 'Continental', only 151 had been sold compared to several thousand of the Rolls-Royce version! These rare Bentleys are much sought after today. The car offered here was acquired by the current vendor in 2004, since when it has been maintained by Rolls-Royce and Bentley specialist N Sandell of Isleworth, Middlesex. The car had a major engine overhaul in 2003 and has covered circa 13,000 miles since. Numerous related bills are on file from N Sandell for works and servicing since 2004, together with the current V5C Registration Certificate and a quantity of expired MoTs and tax discs. The car has received a recent service from N Sandell and these bills are on file. The car also comes with factory instruction handbooks and an Information for Owners booklet recording the original colour combination as Willow Gold with Magnolia leather interior.

1967 Aston Martin DB6 Vantage Sports SaloonRegistration no. WJH 333E (see text)Chassis no. DB6/3091/REngine no. 400/3058/V•One of only three DB6 Vantage models with automatic transmission•First owned by Lord Macpherson of Drumochter•Well specified•Present ownership since 2007•Offered at No ReserveFootnotes:Superseding the DB5 in 1965, the DB6 was the last of the long-running line of David Brown 'DB' models, and as such is considered by some aficionados of the marque to be the last of the 'real' Aston Martins. Aware that increased headroom and legroom was required to extend the car's appeal to a wider market and make it a true four-seater, the factory lengthened the wheelbase by 4' while at the same time re-styling the DB6 to incorporate a more raked windscreen, raised roofline and reshaped rear quarter-windows.One of only three Aston Martin DB6 Vantage models completed with Borg Warner automatic transmission, this example comes with a guarantee form copy revealing that it was built for the UK market and delivered new via Cheapside Motor Co (HR Owen) to Lord Macpherson of Drumochter, JP. The car was ordered in Mink with Dark Blue Connolly leather trim, and was first registered as 'WJH 333E'. In addition to the Vantage engine and automatic transmission, the Aston also left the factory equipped with power steering; chrome road wheels; heated rear screen; 3-ear hubcaps; power aerial; Coolair air conditioning; safety belts; Motorola radio; Fiamm horns; Marchal quartz iodine fog and spot lamps; and an extra vanity mirror on the driver's sun visor. The total cost was £3,232 2s 6d plus £873 2s 6d Purchase Tax. A boot-mounted CD player was added subsequently. The current owner purchased the DB6 at the Bonhams Olympia Sale in December 2007 (Lot 703). The 2007 catalogue description states: 'On file are receipts from specialists Aston Workshop, Puddleduck and Rikki Cann recording refurbishment work carried out including attention to front and rear wings, rear sill and both door bottoms; renewing pedal support and master cylinder mounting brackets (2003); changing brake discs and fitting Aeroquip hoses all round; fitting reconditioned master cylinder and Vantage carburettor overhaul kit (2005); and overhaul of steering rack (2006).' Unfortunately, the documentation for these works has since been lost, as have the eight MoT certificates mentioned in the description, the last of which was obtained immediately prior to the 2007 sale. Exported in 2007, the Aston comes with a copy of its last UK V5C Registration Certificate recording the owner when issued as Christopher Jones of Kent. The car will need to be reregistered with the DVLA should the successful purchaser wish to resume using it in the UK and will be subject to the low import duty rate of 5%. The Vantage has received a cursory engineer's inspection and with some effort the car started although is not running well and the fuel pump is seized. As it has been stored in recent years, it will require further recommissioning before being returned to the road.Lot to be sold without reserve.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: * N* VAT on imported items at a preferential rate of 5% on Hammer Price and the prevailing rate on Buyer's Premium.N MOTORCYCLESIf purchased by a UK resident, this machine is subject to a NOVA declaration, whilst the responsibility of submitting the NOVA rests with the Buyer to do so, Bonhams will facilitate the process by engaging an agent (SHIPPIO) to undertake the NOVA and C88 (customs) application if applicable on the Buyer's behalf.

2017 Mercedes-Benz G63 AMG Brabus B63S-700 WidestarRegistration no. LJ17 TTVChassis no. WDB4632722X254448*Delivered new to the UK*Rare right-hand drive example*Numerous Brabus upgrades*Possibly the most comprehensively optioned G-Wagen in the UKFootnotes:Founded in Germany in 1977, Brabus has grown to become the largest tuning firm specialising in Mercedes-Benz products, other than the Mercedes' own AMG subsidiary. This breathtaking example of Brabus's handiwork is based on the mighty Mercedes-Benz G63 AMG 4x4, one of the latest and most exclusive members of the long-running G-Class family. Introduced as long ago as 1979, the Mercedes-Benz G-Class 'Geländewagen' (cross-country vehicle) was the result of a joint venture with Steyr-Daimler-Puch of Austria, a firm with considerable experience in developing four-wheel-drive systems for off-road vehicles. Its purposeful appearance – fundamentally unchanged throughout its life – and engineering excellence has secured the G-Wagen cult status and earned it a reputation as one of the most coveted of classic 4x4s. For 1991 a revised (Type 463) chassis was introduced, incorporating the very latest in off-road traction technology in the form of three electronically engaged differentials in addition to anti-lock brakes. There have been countless updates to the Type 463 since then and a host of special variants. One of the final models released before production of the Type 463 ceased in 2018, the G63 was powered by AMG's 5.5-litre twin-turbocharged V8 engine developing 537bhp, which was delivered to the ground via AMG's Speedshift Plus 7G‑tronic automatic transmission. Boasting high ground clearance and long-travel suspension, the AMG G63 offered greater off-road capability than most customers would ever need in an immensely stylish conveyance with not inconsiderable on-the-road presence. Like the entire model series, the G63 AMG was produced in Graz, primarily in the factory's hand-finishing section. Sold new by Forstner's, this Brabus-modified and extensively optioned 2017 example reportedly cost its first owner £230,000 and was purchased by the vendor in September 2019. Its desirable Brabus upgrades include the following:Brabus G700 engine packageBrabus ride controlBrabus RACE shift paddlesBrabus monoblock Y alloy wheelsBrabus Black LED headlightsBrabus carbon fibre bonnet insertBrabus rear door with spare wheel deleteBrabus valvetronic exhaust systemBrabus front bumper with DRLsBrabus Widestar body kitBrabus double-B grill insertBrabus floor matsCurrently displaying a total of circa 27,000 miles on the odometer, and presented in very good condition throughout, this imposing 4×4 represents possibly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own one of these rare and super-exclusive luxury off-roaders.

2007 Aston Martin V12 Vanquish S 2+2 Ultimate CoupéRegistration no. RX07 SZTChassis no. SCFAC14397B502575*One of only 50 Ultimate models made*One owner from new*Semi-automatic paddle-shift transmission*10,550 miles from new*Full service historyFootnotes:To celebrate the end of Vanquish production, the factory signed off with the Vanquish S Ultimate, a run of the last 50 cars finished in 'Ultimate Black' with an upgraded interior and personalised sill plaques. As well as its unique exterior and interior finishes, the Ultimate also came with an up-rated version of the 6.0-litre V12 engine producing 603PS (UK and EU only) – good enough for a top speed of 200mph.An entirely new Aston Martin for the 21st Century, the Vanquish had debuted at the Geneva Auto Show in March 2001, with deliveries commencing a few months later. The Vanquish was styled by Ian Callum, the man responsible for the DB7, and was powered by a 6.0-litre, 48-valve, V12 engine. A spin-off from Formula 1 technology, the state-of-the-art electronic engine management system provided 'drive by wire' throttle control and was linked to the six-speed gearbox's electro-hydraulic change mechanism, a 'first' for a production car. The gearchange was controlled by F1-style paddles and could be operated in either of two modes - fully manual or computer-controlled automatic - with a 'sport' setting available on both. Standard equipment included almost everything the discerning enthusiast would wish for: Alpine stereo system; 6 CD changer; air conditioning; electrically adjustable seats; alarm/immobiliser; tyre pressure sensing; automatic rain-sensing wipers; automatic headlamp operation; automatic rear-view mirror dipping; trip computer, etc. The Ultimate was based on the revamped Vanquish S that superseded the original version following its debut at the Paris Auto Show in 2004. The previously optional Sports Dynamic Pack of enhanced steering, suspension and brakes came as standard with the Vanquish S. This rare and collectible last-of-the-line Vanquish Ultimate was purchased new by the current vendor from HWM Aston Martin in July 2007 (invoice on file). The optional heated front screen and 2+2 seating were specified, and the car was delivered with the Obsidian Black interior option. Other desirable options include Bluetooth connectivity; grey brake callipers; console storage box; and body-coloured door releases. The car also comes with its bespoke factory-made fabric cover (retail cost circa £600).In May 2013 this Vanquish Ultimate took part in the Aston Martin 100th Anniversary display on The Mall in London. Described by the private vendor as in excellent condition, with excellent engine, it comes with full service history dating back to the original purchase and all bills from 2012 onwards, and was last serviced (at a cost of £9,278) in May 2021.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

First owned by Sir Paul Vestey1990 Ferrari F40 BerlinettaRegistration no. G313 XPKChassis no. ZFFGJ34B000084104• UK Supplied. One of only 78 built for the UK market• Desirable non-catalyst non-adjust model• Four owners from new having covered just 17,789 Kilometres • Extensive service history, cambelts changed October 2020• Present ownership since 2015Footnotes:Introduced in 1988 to celebrate Enzo Ferrari's 40 years as a motor manufacturer, the iconic F40 was the ultimate supercar and is historically significant as the first production passenger car to have a claimed top speed of over 200mph. It is also the last Ferrari to be personally approved by Enzo Ferrari prior to his death in 1988. A mid-engined, two-seater berlinetta, the F40 was a development of the limited-production 288 GTO and like the latter - but unlike the preceding 308 series - mounted its power unit longitudinally rather than transversely. Much had been learned from the development of the Evoluzione version of the 288 GTO - intended for the soon-to-be-abandoned Group B competitions - which enabled Ferrari to take the F40 from drawing board to dealers' showrooms in just 13 months. A 2,936cc quad-cam V8 with four valves per cylinder, the F40 engine employed twin IHI turbochargers to liberate 478bhp (approximately 352kW) at 7,000rpm. For the seriously speed-addicted, this could be boosted by 200bhp by means of a factory tuning kit. Of equal, if not greater, technical interest was the method of body/chassis construction, the F40 drawing on Ferrari's Formula 1 experience in its use of composite technology. A one-piece plastic moulding, the body was bonded to the tubular steel chassis to create a lightweight structure of immense rigidity. The doors, bonnet, boot lid and other removable panels were carbon fibre. Pugnaciously styled by Pininfarina, the F40 incorporated the latest aerodynamic aids in the form of a dam-shaped nose and high rear aerofoil. Despite the need to generate considerable downforce - and with a top speed of 201mph, higher than the take-off speed of many light aircraft, the F40 needed all the downforce it could get - the result was a commendably low drag coefficient of just 0.34. The F40's interior reinforced its image as a thinly disguised race-car, with body-contoured seats, an absence of carpeting and trim, and sliding Plexiglas windows. When it came to actual competition, race-prepared F40s more than held their own and in the Global GT series proved quicker on many circuits than McLaren's F1 GTR. Autocar concluded its test thus: 'on a smooth road it is a scintillatingly fast car that is docile and charming in its nature; a car that is demanding but not difficult to drive, blessed as it is with massive grip and, even more importantly, superb balance and manners. You can use its performance - the closest any production carmaker has yet come to race car levels - and revel in it....there's little doubt it is the very personification of the term sports car.' Even today the F40 has the power to impress. Launched in the UK with an asking price of around £185,000, the F40 was changing hands at the height of the late '80s supercar boom for up to half a million pounds. When production ceased in 1992 only 1,315 of these quite exceptional cars had been completed. Today, much of the F40's enduring appeal is the fact that it is one of the last great 'analogue' supercars, designed and built at a time when the driver was expected to be in full control and before the introduction of electronic interventions in the form of anti-lock brakes, traction control, stability control, and paddle-shift automatic gearboxes, which have since become the norm. It also lacked a brake servo, air conditioning, interior door handles, and power steering... As Ferrari marketing executive Giovanni Perfetti explained: 'We wanted it to be very fast, sporting in the extreme and Spartan. Customers had been saying our cars were becoming too plush and comfortable. The F40 is for the most enthusiastic of our owners who want nothing but sheer performance.' Even so, the F40 could not remain unaffected by the march of technological progress, gaining refinements such as ABS, catalytic converters, and adjustable suspension as development progressed. As one would expect, it is the early F40 representing the model in its purest and most basic form that is of the greatest interest to collectors. A desirable non-cat, non-adjust model, this particular F40 was delivered new in the UK to one of Ferrari's most favoured customers: gentleman racing driver Sir Paul Vestey, who had bought his first Ferrari, a 250 GT SWB, at only 21 years of age. He would go onto own and race several other Ferraris as a privateer, including a 275 GTB Competizione and a 250 LM, crossing swords with the crème de la crème of the international sports car racing fraternity. Sir Paul Vestey is well known to the Bonhams motoring team and we contacted him recently for his memories of '84104'. He recollects travelling to Italy to collect it: 'We had a great time picking the two cars up at the factory - Willie Tuckett and Andrew Fletcher were in the other one. We then drove up to La Reserve in Beaulieu - we arrived about five hours before Willie as he got lost in Genoa! Then up to the Georges Blanc at Vonnas and finally on to the coast where there was a gale blowing and our ferry crashed into the dock. It was a brilliant trip! In 1993 I sold it to John Mexborough so it has a very titled history...' The Earl of Mexborough kept the Ferrari until 2006 when ownership passed to Mr Iqbal Abdullah, who enjoyed the car for some nine years before it was sold to the current vendor in 2015.Originally registered in the UK as 'PEV 1', '84104' is one of only 78 Ferrari F40s built for the UK market, only 20 of which were 'non-catalyst' models like this one. Ferrari purists will tell you that a non-cat F40 is the more desirable. Supplied with its original service book, this F40's service history is exemplary. Commencing on 27th February 1990 with Maranello, Egham at 1,924 kilometres and progressing via 21 further services throughout its life to the most recent with Stratstone on 16th October 2020 at 17,763 kilometres (the current odometer reading is 17,789). During the current owner's tenure Stratstone have serviced the car in 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2020. The recent service included the all-important cambelt change. In 2015, Stratstone carried out a 250 man-hours mechanical restoration and detailing. Since when the Ferrari has been driven only once: around the Isle of Man and maintained in secure storage. Photographs of the Stratstone rebuild are on file and the car also comes with copies of all the original factory paperwork and correspondence relating to its order and purchase. This wonderful, four owner, UK supplied F40 offers a ticket to enter a very exclusive owners club Reacquainting himself with the F40, F50, and Enzo Ferraris for Octane magazine (July 2014 edition) racing driver Mark Hales declared: 'The F40 is for me, the special one. Not just because I have spent so much time in them, but because it was such an explosive, other-worldly creation when it first appeared, and it still retains much of that character.' Enough said.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

1978 Rolls-Royce Corniche ConvertibleCoachwork by H J Mulliner, Park Ward LtdRegistration no. BRX 522TChassis no. DRH25262•The ultimate in motoring luxury in its day•Fresh from a 12-month, bare-metal, professional restoration costing £60,000•Owned and doted on by the vendor for many years•Reluctant sale due to a change in personal circumstancesFootnotes:'The name Corniche has been chosen for the latest coachbuilt models because it symbolises their higher cruising speeds and their ability to cover greater distances with the minimum of fatigue for driver and passengers.' - Rolls-Royce. Recalling the firm's glamorous Grandes Routières of pre-war days such as the Phantom II Continental, Rolls-Royce's final coachbuilt models - entrusted to the company's in-house coachbuilder H J Mulliner, Park Ward Ltd - were limited to just two, a two-door coupé or similar convertible, the former arriving in March 1966 and the latter in September the following year. Some of the frontal panels were shared with the standard Silver Shadow four-door saloon but otherwise the new bodyshells were unique, featuring a distinctive dipping upper wing line with parallel crease, and a revised, more rounded posterior. These exclusive cars were hand built in the best traditions of British coachbuilding using only materials of the finest quality including Wilton carpeting, Connolly hide and burr walnut veneers, such painstaking attention to detail resulting in a price some 50% higher than that of the standard Silver Shadow. Nevertheless, demand for these more glamorous alternatives to the much more numerous four-door model was strong right from the start, a state of affairs that resulted in them being given their own model name - 'Corniche' - in March 1971. In Corniche form Rolls-Royce's well-tried 6.7-litre V8 produced around 10% more power than standard and proved capable of propelling the car to a top speed in excess of 120mph with sports car-beating acceleration to match. Progressively developed, the Corniche received Rolls's advanced split-level air conditioning system along with a redesigned fascia in 1976 (the first Rolls-Royce model to do so) and in 1977 benefited from the many improvements - most notably rack-and-pinion steering - introduced on the 'Shadow II range. Despite its sky-high asking price, the model proved a major success for Rolls-Royce; periodically revised and up-dated, it remained in production well into the 1990s, the last (Convertible) examples being delivered in 1995.This Rolls-Royce Corniche is offered fresh from a 12-month, bare-metal restoration by Michael Hibberd costing circa £60,000, which included a brand new hood and refurbishment of much of the interior woodwork. Owned and doted on by the vendor for many years, the car is a reluctant sale and is only going under the hammer due to a change in the owner's personal circumstances. Simply stunning, this car is one of the best-looking Corniche convertibles we have ever seen and worthy of the closest inspection.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
