RÉCIFE FOUNTAIN PEN.Body in imitation wood celluloid and gold-plated details.Limited edition.Two-tone 18kt gold nib. F point.Screw cap. Piston loading.No box.Measurements: 14.50 cm. length, 19 mm. diameter.In 1930, Constantin Samard, descendant of a family dedicated for generations to leather working and saddlery, decided to create his own company specialising in the manufacture of luggage in Vincennes, on the outskirts of Paris. This was to be the seed of what later, when his grandson, Stephan Arnal, took over the business, would become the company Récife. A second phase, which began in 1987, was characterised by the expansion and diversification of its product catalogue, which from then on would include an important branch dedicated to the production of writing instruments. Récife writing instruments are currently divided into three main product lines: the Urban Chic series, defined by its elegance and fascinating designs; the Art Factor range, characterised by the use of variegated resins that give it a highly original and daring appearance; and lastly, the Pop line, the lowest of the three, made up of youthful, colourful and highly contemporary writing instruments. In addition to these three main lines, which are in turn made up of different collections, there is also the sporadic launch of limited edition pieces, usually dedicated to outstanding figures of art or music, their works and their cultural legacy, which find in Récife writing implements a unique "container" to convey their greatness. A constantly evolving catalogue of products that speaks to us of the concerns and commitment of Récife's managers and designers, of their perfectionist zeal and, in short, of their unwavering desire to make a name for themselves in the world of handwriting.

2005 Ford GT Coupé Registration no. GT06 EWH Chassis no. 1FAFP90S25Y401284•One of only 101 produced for the European market•Delivered new via Switzerland•UK registered since 2012•Circa 12,700 miles from new•Freshly serviced and MoT'd for sale by marque specialists, GT101Footnotes:The 'new generation' GT was developed by Ford's Special Vehicle Team Engineering department under the direction of John Coletti and Fred Goodnow. The prototype was released in 2002 in anticipations of Ford's 100th anniversary celebrations, with production commencing in late 2004. The composite body panels are unstressed, as on the original GT40 of the 1960's, but instead of the monocoque chassis construction used in the 1960s, SVT Engineering developed an all-new lightweight aluminium spaceframe combining extruded sections and panels. Doubling as fuel reservoirs, a pair of massive sills contributed much to the original's chassis stiffness, whereas the new 'GT40' relies on a centre-tunnel 'backbone' that greatly improves ease of entry and exit. The suspension design is an advance on the original's, consisting of unequal-length control arms and a pushrod/bell-crank system acting on horizontally mounted coil spring/damper units. Braking is handled by six-piston Alcon callipers with cross-drilled and ventilated discs all round. In defeating Ferrari's more highly stressed V12s, Ford proved that the traditional American V8 possessed all that was necessary to compete at the cutting edge of international endurance racing. A far cry from the simple pushrod units of the 1960s, the Ford GT's supercharged MOD 5.4-litre V8 produces 550bhp at 6,500rpm and 678Nm (500lb/ft) of torque at 3,750 revs; figures on a par with those of the 7.0-litre engine that won at Le Mans in 1966 and 1967. The six-speed all-synchromesh manual gearbox/transaxle uses ZF internals and was sourced from RBT Transmissions, whose founder Roy Butfoy had been a member of Ford's racing team at Le Mans. The interior features leather-upholstered Recaro bucket seats with aluminium ventilation grommets embedded into the panels. The instrument layout follows the original's, comprising analogue gauges and a large tachometer complemented by modern versions of the traditional toggle switches. Back in 1966, the Ford GT40 endurance racer became the first car to exceed 200mph along the Mulsanne straight at Le Mans. Matching that would be some achievement for the production road car, even allowing for nearly 40 years of technological progress... Tested for Motor Trend magazine by Indycar racing legend Bryan Herta, the Ford GT duly topped 200mph at Ford's Kingman test facility in Arizona, emphatically demonstrating that it was indeed worthy of that famous name. The GT also has stunning acceleration, sprinting from 0-100km/h in approximately 3.8 seconds.One of only 101 produced for the European market, this beautiful example was ordered by Monaco resident Mr Gabriel Cadringher, who was the FIA's technical delegate and had various involvements in motor sport. It was one of only seven cars ordered through Ford of France and was supplied via the Swiss Ford dealer Grimm in Geneva, one of only three European dealers involved in the delivery programme. The original specification included Midnight Blue paintwork with white top stripes and standard six-spoke wheels, which have subsequently been upgraded to the optional BBS lightweight wheels. As with all 101 European GTs, there were no further specification options available. DVLA records show that the car was first UK registered on 1st February 2012. The service book and associated invoices record the following:Service at 4,700 miles - Grimm, Geneva, Switzerland 12/12/06Service at 6,105 miles - USAdvance, Saint-André-de-la-Roche, France 21/01/11 (invoice only, no stamp)Service at 10,271 miles - Autopics, Russtington, UK 02/12/14Service at 12,061 miles - Autopics, Russtington, UK 22/06/18Service at W E Shepherd & Son, Byfleet, UK (mileage and date not listed)The following MoT certificates are on file also:10/01/12 @ 8,207 miles27/03/13 @ 9,117 miles08/04/14 @ 9,757 miles15/04/15 @ 10,424 miles14/04/16 @ 10,921 miles13/04/17 @ 11,401 miles20/04/18 @ 11,862 miles29/04/19 @ 12,478 milesRecently at 12,653 miles, the car was serviced by Dave Jones of GT101 (world renowned Ford GT specialists) and MoT'd prior to sale.
