1978 Porsche 911 SC / RS Inspired Lightweight Transmission: manualMileage:500The Porsche 911 is the flagship car of the German manufacturer. It has a distinctive design, rear-engined, with independent rear suspension, an evolution of the swing axle on the Porsche 356. Since its introduction in 1963, the 911 has undergone continuous development although the basic concept has remained little changed. Throughout its lifetime, the 911 has been modified by private teams and by the factory itself for racing, rallying and other forms of competition and is among the most successful competition cars ever. The earliest edition of the 911 had a flat six engine in the €˜boxer' configuration, similar to the 356, air-cooled, rear-mounted and displaced 1991cc. It was mated to a four or five-speed manual €˜Type 901' gearbox. Built over a three period and only finished earlier this year, this fantastic, one of a kind 911 was built for the vendor, a well-known historic 911 racer. Based upon a 1978 911 SC, this project was overseen by renowned Porsche specialist Steve Monk of Bodywerks, Iver and Wrightune based in Oxfordshire. The plan was to build the ultimate classic roadgoing 911, taking the experience gained by both the vendors years of racing, Steve Monk's and Wrightune's decades of experience building and racing, to build a car that is both comfortable on a tour but also with uprated and capable handling. Headline figures weren't the aim here, nor was the plan to create something with lots of trinkets adorning it. The idea was to make a lightweight, great handling car that had uprated power, but run through carburettors for both great throttle response and glorious intake sound.First registered in February 1978, this very early 911 SC was originally delivered to Glen Henderson Motors, Ayr, Scotland and must be one of the very first in the UK. Steve Monk rebuilt the car from the ground up with the shell receiving attention to the floor pan, new inner and outer sills, new wings front and rear with the rear arches re-shaped to create a more subtle wider stance. Whilst in a bare state, he also reinforced and lightened the shell and added new SC/RS style lightweight bumpers. The original period style black and cork trim was retained and restored, including the leather seats, the only hint to the car's performance being a new Heigo bolt-in half-cage, together with four-point harnesses and a Momo Black Edition Prototipo steering wheel. All the running gear was either restored or replaced, including all suspension with new dampers, brake calipers and discs. The period Fuchs-style 15€ 7J/8J wheels are shod with Avon period-profile, historic road tyres giving the car a purposeful, period look, whilst also complementing the handling style of the car. The engine was built by Wrightune and the displacement increased to 3.2 litres, with gas flowed cylinder heads, 964 cams and Weber 40ID downdraught carburettors, plus SSI exhaust system and a fully programmable 123Tune ignition system. Meanwhile, power is transferred to the road through a lighter magnesium-cased 915 gearbox.Supplied with a UK V5 registration document, file of receipts and a MoT test certificate valid until October 2023, the vendor reports that the car runs and drives extremely well. Presenting a unique opportunity to own a true €˜jack of all trade's' performance Porsche, conceived and built by the best in the business, this is a 911 not to be missed.

1972 Jensen Interceptor SP Mk. III Transmission: automaticMileage:2000Alan and his brother Richard Jensen first became involved with car design and construction in 1925 when their efforts to improve on the styling and performance of an Austin Seven Chummy attracted much favourable attention. A few Jensen-bodied Fords were produced in the mid-1930s before a more serious manufacturing effort commenced in 1938. After World War II, Jensen kept itself afloat by producing bodies for other manufacturers, most notably Austin Healey, while producing its own stylish GTs in limited numbers. It was not until the Interceptor's arrival in 1967 that cars began to leave the West Bromwich factory in more substantial numbers. With the Interceptor's introduction, Jensen switched from glass fibre to steel for its car bodies, though underneath the preceding C-V8's chassis, running gear and 6,276 cc Chrysler engine remained substantially unchanged. With around 280 bhp on tap, performance was more than adequate, the motor recording a top speed of 140 mph with 100 mph arriving from a standstill in 19 seconds. Four-wheel servo-assisted Dunlop discs looked after the braking while the ride quality could be varied by the Armstrong Selectaride dampers' dashboard control. Leather upholstery, reclining front seats, and walnut veneer trim were all standard features of this Vignale-styled Anglo-American GT, while automatic transmission was the choice of almost all buyers. The Series II incorporated revised front suspension, Girling brakes and a redesigned interior, while the Series III, introduced in October 1971, came with a 7.2-litre engine, better seats, central locking, and GKN alloy wheels. The SP (six-pack) was the rare one €“ with only 232 being built. Originally registered on the 9th November 1972 this Mk. III Interceptor is presented in white with black diamond stitched leather trim. This example has been subject to a full restoration with bills totalling over £60,000 after an engine fire in 2012, the damage was such that the insurers decided not to repair and thus this is categorised as a Category D. The car now presents extremely well, the mighty 7.2 litre engine is fabulous, and the original SP (six pack) has been removed and replaced with a more user-friendly single twin choked carburettor. A wonderful brute of a British sports car in which the vendor has spent extensively with fabulous results, sensibly estimated, viewing is highly recommended.
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!
1959 Cadillac Series 62 Convertible Transmission: automaticMileage:Although Cadillac had invented the tailfin in 1948, by the late 1950s, others were offering their own take on the theme. In fact, the 1959 Cadillac fins were a response by Cadillac to the 1957 Chrysler line, which had borrowed Cadillac's own idea and took it one step further. According to the late David Holls, former design director at GM, the famous fins of 1959 were the result of a directive from management that Cadillac would not be outdone by Chrysler products.There was little danger of that, as the 1959 Cadillac was a modern classic that truly represented the high point of the era of fins and flash. It was huge yet remarkably docile to drive, thanks to abundant power, a first-rate automatic transmission, and excellent power steering and brakes.No other car captured the essence of the Jet Age quite like the 1959 Cadillac. In addition to sharply swept and dramatically pointed fins, surface development was a series of curves, nacelles, and character lines that could have come from one of the new jet fighters of the time. Wheel covers carried a turbine wheel motif, and there were even vestigial ventral fins at the lower edge of each rear side, passing through the bumper skirts to merge into the massive rear bumper.The Series 62 Convertible offered here was the recipient of a full restoration in the iconic colour of Seminole Red with a contrasting red/white interior and white electric vinyl hood. In true 1959 Cadillac fashion, it has numerous options and accessories, including the Hydra-Matic transmission; power steering, brakes, windows, and top; and the standard bench seat that provides traditional comfort for up to three adult passengers across the front. This example is probably one of the finest on the market and is extremely sought after and rare. The vendor has given it 10/10 in every respect, and we strongly recommend that the car be viewed in person to really appreciate its beauty and superb quality. The engine bay itself is something to behold let alone the rest of the car. Superb! This is an American icon that any enthusiast should own at least once in his or her life, and this car is a handsome example of one of the all-time great GM designs.
1986 Mercedes-Benz 300 SL Transmission: automaticMileage:86949Mercedes-Benz have been producing an SL model or range of models since 1954. The similarly styled but mechanically unrelated 190 followed in 1955 completing the first generation of cars. The second-generation SL's began with the 230 in 1963. It was distinguished by its lower waistline, big curved screens and a distinctive optional hardtop that earned the model its nickname of `pagoda top'. Over its nine years of production, the second-generation SL's engine grew in capacity from 2.3 litres to 2.5 litres and finally to 2.8 litres which was shown by the name 230 SL, 250 SL and 280 SL. The larger, third generation SL was launched in 1971, initially with just a 3.5-litre engine (350 SL) mated to four-speed automatic transmission. The car featured a two-door monocoque bodyshell with independent suspension all round, coil springs and anti-roll bar at the front and semi-trailing arms, coil springs and anti-roll bar at the rear. The power assisted steering was Daimler-Benz's own re-circulating ball system. Over its seventeen-year reign, the R107 range was powered by no less than eight different engines - two sizes of straight-six unit and six versions of 90-degree V8.Originally registered on 15th August 1986 this Mercedes-Benz presents in Ivory with chestnut two-tone interior. The car presents in delightful condition and has clearly been a very well cared for example. We are advised she drives with no known faults, the six-cylinder three-litre engine is generally a very robust unit, offering good performance and fuel economy. Supplied with a V5 registration document and the original service and handbooks, together with a factory hardtop. A lovely example of this appreciating and very usable modern classic.
2002 Jaguar XK8 Coupé Transmission: automaticMileage:117725Jaguar cars today are designed in Jaguar Land Rover's engineering centres at the Whitley plant in Coventry and at their Gaydon site in Warwickshire with manufacturing in the Castle Bromwich assembly plant in Birmingham. The Jaguar XK series was introduced at the Geneva Motor Show on 5th March 1996 with the first generation of the series, the XK8, replacing the XJS and available as a Coupé and convertible. It was the first eight-cylinder vehicle produced since the Daimler 250. The XK8 came with 17 alloy wheels, leather interior, air conditioning, burr walnut trim and side airbags as standard.This good 2002 Jaguar XK8 Coupé with the four litre engine was purchased in February 2021 by the BBC to feature as Zack Hudson's car in the soap opera €˜Eastenders'. Jack Hudson played by James Farrar joined Eastenders in March 2021. Finished in silver with cream interior this XK8 Coupé it has 19-inch Apollo alloy wheels and the classic interior with burr walnut veneer trim. It is supplied with a V5 registration document and an MoT test certificate which expires in May 2023. When supplied new it was regarded as the ultimate grand touring Coupé that can transport the occupants in luxury and style.
2004 Rolls-Royce Phantom Transmission: automaticMileage:The Phantom V11 was the first all-new design to be introduced by the company following its takeover by BMW. Produced at a new factory near Goodwood in Sussex, the Phantom revived a great name from Rolls-Royce's past that had always been synonymous with unrestrained luxury. In keeping with the tradition established by previous Phantoms, the newcomer was a very large motor car, outstretching the old Silver Seraph (the last Crewe-built Rolls-Royce) by 18 while boasting a radiator shell 4 taller. Priced at around £260,000 at time of launch, it was also 40% more expensive. At 140½, the new car's wheelbase was only fractionally shorter than that of the superseded Phantom VI that had ceased production in the 1990s; gone however, was the old pushrod V8 engine, its place being taken by an all-new 48 valve V12 of 6.7 litre capacity. Despite being normally aspirated, the latter produced 460bhp, comfortably exceeding the old engine's maximum when turbo-charged, albeit at a high 5,300 revolutions. This abundance of power was transmitted to the rear axle via a six-speed automatic gearbox, while air-sprung suspension and automatic level control ensured that ride quality remained uncompromised. While the body structure represented the ultimate in automotive technology, its accoutrements remained entirely traditional in choice of materials, consisting of the finest hide trim, genuine woolen carpets and carefully selected wood veneers. Certain dashboard features recalled those of earlier models, while there was a choice of five-seater 'Lounge' or four-seater €˜Theatre' accommodation. This flagship of the famous marque was originally supplied by Rolls-Royce Motors of London on 5th July 2004. Originally supplied in silver metallic but currently wearing a gloss full body wrap in Diamond Black with contrasting cream leather, which is complemented by unmarked Birdseye Maple wooden facias and 22 Mansory wheels giving a contemporary uplift. The registration number H15 RRP (His Rolls-Royce Phantom) comes with the vehicle. From new and until 2010, the servicing found within the original maintenance booklet, was carried out by main dealers and a single specialist. With just three owners from new, Mr. Bainbridge took ownership in 2009 and used the car daily hence the mileage now showing 177,000, however, the current vendor states that it drives like a 50,000 mile car. The previous owner who was the proprietor of 1st Direct Cars, maintained the vehicle and there is also a raft of invoices from PA Wood Rolls-Royce. ur vendor purchased the car in March of this year and he has used it to attend various social events, he claims it is the most fun he has had with his friend's, shuttling them in luxury to Le Mans and other events. The car enjoys all the usual refinements one would expect, including electric memory seats, ice cold air conditioning, hidden umbrellas in the poweroperated rear doors (electrically closing), a rotating TV screen mounted to the rear of the beautiful dash clock and overhead driving enchantment lighting to name a few of the factory-fitted options. Currently the audio system is falty and will require attention. Offered with an MoT test certificate until May 2023 and realistically reserved, this car presents great value for money and still offers that unrivalled presence with the powerful silent ride quality we all clamor for. There is no better way to arrive at any event and you owe it to yourself to own one once!
2003 Mercedes-Benz SL55 Transmission: automaticMileage:95356The fifth generation of the legendary SL series convertible sports cars was known as the R230. It featured a fully retractable hardtop that was marketed as the Vario Roof, a first for the SL class although it had been available on the smaller SLK model since 1997. The flagship models were built by AMG in the form of the SL55 and SL65, both highly tuned versions of the SL500 and SL600 respectively. The SL55 was powered by a mighty supercharged version of the 5.5 litre, V8 which produced 493bhp and achieved 0-62 in 4.7 seconds and on to a top speed of 155mph (governed). In theory, the SL55 could reach 190mph if the car was derestricted but, for many, the acceleration and top speed is impressive enough in its standard form! The Mercedes-Benz SL55 is no shrinking violet but the previous owner of this car was not satisfied and wanted to attract even more attention. A full wide body kit was used to convert the SL55 AMG to a recreation of the later Brabus SL65 Black Edition with the help of a professional ADAIR kit. Subject to a light category D insurance loss in 2013, ADAIR used this opportunity to facelift the headlights and expertly replace the panels with the wide body kit. The car today looks every part its £280,000 plus sibling, a real wolf in wolfs clothing and is described by our vendor as €˜an absolute goliath of a car'. We are informed that the engine has been breathed on with the intention of achieving 600bhp, however until dyno tested this is still an unknown, but it certainly feels very close to that figure. The incredible sound from the exhaust is enough to make the hairs on the back of your neck stand on end making this an exciting car to drive and own. We are also informed only one genuine SL65 Brabus Black Edition car exists and is held in a collection owned by the Dubai Royal family. An AMG super-charged V8 with the roof down is a perfect motoring scenario and so desired by fans of the SL Mercedes-Benz. Offered with a MoT test certificate until June 2023, this stunning SL will turn heads at every opportunity and will be sure to do the same when offered on 26th November at the home of AMG Mercedes-Benz.
1967 Mercedes-Benz 250SL Pagoda Transmission: manualMileage:79753The very pretty and highly desirable Mercedes-Benz 250 SL was the successor to the popular 230 SL and was first introduced to the public at the 1967 Geneva Motor Show. The brief production run ended a year later in January 1968 and because of this short run, the 250 SL is the rarest of the W 113 (Pagoda) series cars. These lovely German stalwarts were offered with a four-speed automatic, a four-speed manual box or the ZF five-speed. Also, for the first time an optional limited slip differential was also available.This left hand drive example was registered new in 1967 and is offered with automatic transmission. Presented in metallic yellow paintwork with a contrasting blue factory hard top and dark blue interior, the paintwork retains a deep shine as does the chromework, and the interior is in good order although there are some age related blemishes throughout, as you would expect for a car of this age. Offered with an MoT test certificate valid until April 2023, the current UK V5C registration document and sundry invoices. These are sought after models and totally restored examples are fetching six figure sums in some instances.
1981 BMW M535i Transmission: manualMileage:115000The BMW E12 series was the first model to be given the 5-Series label. Built between 1972 and 1981, almost 700,000 were built in total in factories across the globe including locations as far flung as South Africa, Indonesia, and Thailand as well as the firm's native Germany. The replacement for the much-loved New Class it was offered with a wide range of engines from the 89bhp 1.8-litre of the BMW 518 through to the 3.2-litre, 197bhp 533i. Inline four and six-cylinders options were on the board, along with a wide variety of both manual and automatic gearboxes. Most had steel wheels, and all had recirculating ball steering. And yet, for all its humble beginnings, the E12 ushered in a whole new category into the sector, that of the high-performance saloon.Because the M535i was the first volume production €˜M' car (the M1 was a whole different kettle of fish, of course€¦). Launched in 1980, it is powered by a 3.5-litre straight-six M90 engine from the 635CSi that develops 215bhp. The gearbox is a €˜dog-leg' five-speed Getrag manual, and the rear axle features a limited-slip differential. Performance is strong rather than vivid, with 60mph coming up in just under eight seconds and a top speed of around 140mph. Of course, the braking system is upgraded, as is the suspension the latter being both lower and stiffer than standard and damped by specially developed Bilstein dampers. Front and rear spoilers give the car visual flair, while the interior gained fancy, figure-hugging Recaro seats and the M1's sports steering wheel. They were genuinely handbuilt.This lovely example of this superb marque has been the subject of much expenditure to include a complete respray in Black (its original factory colour) and a new black leather interior which included its Recaro seats. During the recommissioning, the engine was rebuilt also and is mated to the desirable dog-leg gearbox, it also comes with electric windows. This is a striking car in fantastic condition.
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.
1980 MG B GT Transmission: manualMileage:96285The MGB was launched in May 1962 to replace the MGA. Introduced as a four-cylinder roadster, a Coupé with 2+2 seating was added in 1965 with production continuing until October 1980. The MGB GT sported a ground-breaking design by Pininfarina on launching the sporty 'hatchback' style. By combining the sloping rear window with the rear deck lid, the GT offered the utility of a hatchback while retaining the style and shape of a Coupé. This new configuration was a 2+2 design with a right-angled rear bench seat and far more luggage space than in the Roadster. Relatively few components differed although the MGB GT did receive different suspension springs and anti-roll bars and a modified windscreen which was more easily and inexpensively serviceable. Acceleration of the GT was slightly slower than that of the Roadster due to its increased weight. Top speed improved by 5mph to 105mph due to better aerodynamics.This interesting MGB GT Coupé was first registered on 1st August 1980 and has had just two owners from new. The MG has not been used much in recent years and as such requires recommissioning before use. It is also believed that the clutch or clutch master cylinder will need to be replaced before use. The history file that accompanies the car includes many old MoT test certificates and various significant maintenance bills. Offered without reserve we are sure this example, once recommissioned, will be huge amounts of fun for the new owner.
1971 Mercedes-Benz 230 Limousine Transmission: automaticMileage:44900 The name Limousine or Limo, as they are popularly known, originated from the Limousin region in central France from a type of hood worn by the population that resembled the covering for a carriage. Later, it was known as the cover for the driver on an automobile, while today, it is known as a luxury vehicle that has a longer frame and wheelbase to accommodate more space behind the driver, at times more than is needed. There are also models that are stretched to accommodate further passengers and include a further seating arrangement behind the driver. These seats face forward and may be folded in the down (and out of the way) position. In general limousines have either six or eight seats - the Mercedes-Benz 230 being one of these. The W114/W115 models were the first post-war Mercedes-Benz production car to use a newly engineered chassis, not derived from preceding models. The new chassis format of semi-trailing rear arms and ball-joint front end would be used in all new Mercedes passenger car models until the development of the multi-link rear suspensions of the 1980's. Originally registered on 13th September 1972 this W114 Limousine is finished in white with tan vinyl interior, boasts the rare sliding glass divide and is capable of carrying up to eight passengers. The bodywork is in good order throughout and the trim, finished in tan, is particularly smart. The middle (jump) seats fold away easily to leave plenty of legroom for the rear passengers. Ample chromework adorns this example and again this is in good order. Power is delivered by the 2292cc six-cylinder petrol engine and the car is described by the vendor as driving very well; this 230 Limousine is offered for sale with a V5C registration document and an MoT test certificate until March 2023. A treasured car from our vendor who has owned it since 2008, boasts genuine low mileage and is a versatile and handsome period Mercedes-Benz. Guide Price £8,000 - £15,000
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.
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.
