The Great Train Robbery - Ronnie Biggs (1929-2013) - an original personal business card from Biggs, as given out whilst he lived in Rio De Janeiro. The card features text ' Ronald A Biggs ' alongside Biggs' fingerprint (printed). The rear of the card features a map and arrow pointing to Biggs' address. 6cm x 9cm. The Great Train Robbery was the robbery of £2.6 million from a Royal Mail train heading from Glasgow to London on the West Coast Main Line in the early hours of 8 August 1963, at Bridego Railway Bridge, Ledburn, near Mentmore in Buckinghamshire, England. After tampering with the lineside signals in order to bring the train to a halt, a gang of fifteen, led by Bruce Reynolds, attacked the train. Other gang members included Gordon Goody, Buster Edwards, Charlie Wilson, Roy James, John Daly, Danny Pembroke, Jimmy White, Ronnie Biggs, Tommy Wisbey, Jim Hussey, Bob Welch and Roger Cordrey, as well as three men known only as numbers "1", "2" and "3". A 16th man, an unnamed retired train driver, was also present. With careful planning based on inside information from an individual known as "The Ulsterman" (erroneously named as Patrick McKenna in 2014), the robbers escaped with over £2.6 million (equivalent to £53.5 million today). The bulk of the stolen money was never recovered. Though the gang did not use any firearms, Jack Mills, the train driver, was beaten over the head with a metal bar. Mills' injuries were severe enough to end his career. After the robbery, the gang hid at Leatherslade Farm and famously used the money in a game of Monopoly - unwittingly incriminating themselves whilst doing so as the Monopoly set was used to garner finger prints of the suspects and was instrumental in the Police arresting most of the gang. The ringleaders were sentenced to 30 years in jail.

Registration - TGC 397L Chassis No. - 3440961 M.O.T. - Exempt Odometer - 26,306 According to howmanyleft.co.uk there are just 15 examples of BMW’s 2002 Touring registered in the UK today, making ‘TGC 397L’ a rather rare motor car. This RHD model rolled off the Munich production line in 1972 and was imported into the UK in 1983. Presented in original and eye-catching Golf yellow paintwork, this three-door hatchback has received certain modifications to give it a sportier look, performance and feel. The 2-litre engine has been fitted with new Weber Twin 40 carburettors, and the car has been lowered 50mm with Alpina-style wheels and equipped with an Alpina-style front spoiler. The vendor describes the engine, four-speed manual transmission, electrics, paintwork and highly original black vinyl interior as ‘good’. With the huge membership and event calendar of BMW Car Club GB, the new owner of ‘TGC 397L’ will have unending opportunities to show it off amongst like-minded enthusiasts. BMW produced its 02 series of two-door compact, sporty cars from 1966 to 1975. The 02 series evolved from the Neue Klasse (New Class) four-door executive saloons, the BMW 1500, 2000 C and 2000CS, which had returned the company to solvency after it found itself in dire financial straits in the 1950s. 25cm shorter, and faster, lighter and more affordable than its big ‘sisters’, the first 02 Series model, the 1.6-litre 1600-2 (later known as the 1602), found a ready audience, not least because it also handled better than its more luxurious and larger siblings. In 1968 BMW brought out the 2-litre 2002, and with it a new era began for the company, as its reputation for a producer of affordable but high-quality performance cars was established. The 02 Series was produced in saloon, convertible, targa and hatchback (Touring) models and all found an enthusiastic audience – and had an appeal which lasts to this day. The 2002 in its various guises was produced from 1968 to 1974 and, in 1975, the 02 series was replaced with 3 Series, apart from the 1502, which continued in production until 1977. But by 1975 the 02 Series had already done its job, rescuing BMW from the prospect of financial disaster and reputational obscurity, and putting it firmly on the map and well on the way to being viewed as ‘The Ultimate Driving Machine’. In summary: · One of just 15 2002 Touring models believed to be registered in the UK today (source: howmanyleft.co.uk) · An unusual, practical and highly collectable classic · Upgraded with Weber Twin 40 carburettors, Alpina-style wheels and an Alpina-style front spoiler
