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.

1989 Mercedes-Benz 500 SL€“32 Transmission: automaticMileage:70489Following the resounding success of the R107, the R129 Mercedes-Benz SL had a rather tough act to follow, as it still had to carry on the tradition of a fast and reliable grand touring convertible. The advantage designers had with the R129 was technology. By the time the final car rolled off the production line in 1989, these earlier models had been in production for 18 years with very little change. Therefore, the SL500 featured many new and innovative ideas, such as controlled electronic damping, automatically expanding roll-over bar and a more modern multi-link rear axle. In addition to this was a fully operating electric roof, windows, door mirrors and seats, which made this model easy and comfortable to operate. The new SL also boasted a more powerful engine and the stopping power was aided by anti-lock braking for added reassurance.This 1989 Mercedes-Benz 500 SL 32 valve was supplied new to HRH King Abdullah of Jordan when he was the Crown Prince and kept at his London home. Purchased by the current owner in 2008 and having covered just over 62,000 miles, the car came with a good Mercedes-Benz service history. In his ownership, our vendor has only covered a further 8,000 miles and kept the car well maintained. Finished in dark blue with matching hardtop and tan interior, this 500 SL is supplied with AGM alloy wheels, air conditioning, a V5 registration document, an MoT test certificate which expires in October 2023, the service book which is stamped up to 2007 at 62,005 miles and various invoices. These incredibly accomplished, five litre sportscars represent a truly advanced way to travel.
1982 Daimler Sovereign (4.2 litre) Transmission: automaticMileage:15955The first Jaguar XJ was launched in 1968 and the designation has been used for successive Jaguar flagship models ever since; the original model was the last Jaguar saloon to have had the input of Sir William Lyons, the company's founder. In late 1979, the XJ was face-lifted again and was known as the 'Series III'. Using the long wheelbase version of the car, the XJ6 incorporated a subtle redesign; externally the most obvious changes over the Series II were the thicker and more incorporated rubber bumpers with decorative chrome only on the top edge, flush door handles for increased safety, a one-piece front door glass and a grille with only vertical vanes. In 1983, revisions and changes were made across the Series III model range for the 1984 model, with the Sovereign name being transferred from Daimler to a new top specification Jaguar model, the 'Jaguar Sovereign'.This extremely low mileage example of this British classic, is presented in Mineral blue metallic with a blue leather interior, both of which are in good condition. This car is powered by a 4.2 litre, six-cylinder engine mated to an automatic gearbox. The cherished registration is very apt for this car and is included in the sale. This handsome Daimler shows only two previous owners and has been the vendor's pride and joy for the last 15 years only being used on high days and holidays. He also tells us that it is a joy to drive. Offered to auction with a V5C registration document, this MoT test exempt example is one of the lowest mileage Daimlers we have offered.
2000 Mercedes-Benz CL 500 Transmission: automaticMileage:139000Introduced in August 1991 the first generation CL-Class Coupé was designed by Bruno Sacco. Renowned for its wonderful build quality and refinement, it boasted such niceties as double pane window glazing and self-closing doors/boot. Based upon a rigid monocoque bodyshell equipped with all round independent suspension, four-wheel disc brakes and power assisted steering. A challenger for the title of 'best car in the world', the Stuttgart manufacturer's flagship could be had in standard saloon, long wheelbase or fixedhead Coupé guises. Though, many felt that the latter variant was by far the best looking. Electronically limited to 155mph, the CL 500 Coupé was powered by a 4973cc DOHC 32-valve V8 engine. Known internally as the M119, this imposing unit was credited with 322bhp and 354lbft of torque. Mated to standard fit automatic transmission, it reputedly enabled the sleek two-door to sprint from 0-100km/h in 6.7 seconds. Facelifted in 1997 with a new grille design and clear indicators etc, the CL Coupé range was phased out for the 2000 model year. The C140's Coupé's physical appearance changed little over the years, although the class underwent a name change several times.Originally registered on 1st October 2000, this CL 500 presents very nicely in the most popular colour combination for this model, of metallic silver with a contrasting black interior. This Mercedes has been well maintained and has recently benefitted from a service. The 4973cc engine starts on the button and has brisk performance as one would expect. Comfort, luxury and style are words easily used when describing these W140 Coupés. Supplied with a V5C registration document, a fresh MoT test certificate and various bills and receipts, this impressive Mercedes offers top of the range motoring for a modest outlay.
1978 Mercedes-Benz 450 SLC Transmission: automaticMileage:94900The 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 nice left hand drive example is presented in white with grey/black interior which has been reupholstered in herringbone and looks very presentable indeed. The car comes with electric windows, cassette radio, some previous servicing receipts, old MoT test certificates and its UK V5 Registration Document. These 2+2 German luxury touring sports Coupés are very sought after and being offered at No reserve, this example is surely one to go for!Interested parties should note that this car has developed an electrical fault which now prevents it from starting. Also, it has partially seized on its brakes and cannot be driven away and will need transporting.
1995 Ford Escort Cabriolet Transmission: manualMileage:34313The Ford Escort was manufactured from 1968 to 2002. The first use of the Escort name was for a reduced specification version of the Ford Squire, a 1950s estate car version of the Anglia 100E, though this did not sell well by comparison to the other members of the 100E family. The Escort was revised in January 1995 (sixth generation) although it was still based on the previous model. This version had new front lights, bonnet, front wings, front and rear bumpers, wing mirrors, door handles and four different front radiator grilles. The interior of the car was radically revised to featuring an all-new dashboard arrangement of competitive quality. However, the underlying car was now five years old and most of its rivals were either new or to be imminently replaced.Our vendor purchased this example at the start of this year to enjoy during the summer months. After looking for the ideal car, he purchased this genuine low mileage car with just 34,000 miles from new. In stunning white paintwork, with an immaculate black hood and tounneau cover, and contrasting grey interior. Since purchasing the car, the vendor had a small service carried out which also included having a new catalytic converter fitted and more recently it has successfully passed an MoT test. The car has just had Brand new Front Brake Callipers, Discs and Pads, and Rear Wheel Cylinders. Within the history file there are receipts showing £276.25, and £478.51 respectively for the above mentioned works which means this low mileage, iconic car is now ready for the new owner to enjoy for next year's summer months.Guide Price £3,000 - £5,000Interested parties should note that that the V5 for this car has been misplaced and a new one applied for. It will arrive in due course and once received it be processed for the new owner.

JULIO BORRELL PLA (Barcelona, 1877 - 1957)."Woman among jugs".Oil on canvas.Signed in the lower left corner.Size: 120 x 90 cm; 136 x 103 cm (frame).The laughing blonde portrayed by Borrell in this painting exudes sensuality but without any mannerism, her gaze being jovial and complicit with that of the painter. Borrell is also skilful in capturing her temperament, and does not neglect the casual arrangement of jugs and vases around the body cut out of the wooden door.The son and disciple of Pere Borrell del Caso, Julio Borrell trained at the Sant Jordi School of Fine Arts in Barcelona. From his father he was influenced by the Nazarenes Claudio Lorenzale and Pablo Milà i Fontanals. In 1888, at the age of eleven, he entered a canvas in the Barcelona competition for the Universal Exhibition, together with his brother Ramón, also a painter. From 1894 onwards he took part in almost all the official exhibitions held in Barcelona and Madrid, and was awarded an honourable mention in 1897. That same year he was awarded a second medal at the exhibition in Arcachon, France. His name had a special resonance throughout his exhibitions at the Sala Parés in Barcelona between 1915 and 1920. His extensive output included both oil and pastel works, and covered a wide range of subjects. The theme he most cultivated was that of the classic Spanish maja, the women in mantilla and comb, depicted in his personal sensorial style, with extraordinary skill and great mastery of draughtsmanship. Among his many paintings, some of which have been widely reproduced, mention should be made of "El viático al Liceo", "Lavapiés en Jueves Santo", "Bodas reales", which he painted on behalf of King Alfonso XIII, "Luna de miel", "El triunfo del cristianismo", etc. He also devoted himself to decorative painting, producing religious murals for the church of San Francisco in Buenos Aires and the dome of the Basílica de la Merced in Barcelona, which was destroyed in 1936. Throughout his career, Borrell held numerous solo exhibitions in various Barcelona galleries and took part in group exhibitions and competitions. Many of his works are on display at the MACBA, as well as at the National Art Museum of Catalonia and others.
