Nachdem sein Vater zu seinen Gunsten abgedankt hatte, kehrte er im August 1849 unter dem Schutz österreichischer Truppen aus London nach Parma zurück und errichtete ein reaktionäres Willkürregime, das ihn derart verhasst machte, dass er im März 1854 in Parma auf offener Straße von einem Unbekannten erdolcht wurde.

After his father abdicated in his favor, he returned to Parma from London in August 1849 under the protection of Austrian troops and established an arbitrary reactionary regime that made him so hated that in March 1854 he was stabbed to death in the open street in Parma by an unknown man.

Ausländische Orden & Ehrenzeichen - Brasilien : Brasilien: Große Verdienstmedaille "Campanha do Rio Prata EC.DOTONELERO / 17/12/1851". Bronze - vergoldet, ohne Band. Große am Halsband zu tragende Medaille an beweglicher brasilianischer Kaiserkrone. Mit gravierter Randschrift: "Vice Almirante Commandante em Chefe das Forcas Navaes John Pascoe Grenfell". Besonders großes Exemplar (99 x 59 mm, ohne Ring).Die bewegliche brasilianische Kaiserkrone fein ziseliert. Dieses Ehrenzeichen wurde an den gebürtigen Engländer Admiral der brasilianischen Kriegsmarine sowie Diplomat des Kaiserreiches Brasilien John Pascoe Grenfell (1800 - 1869) verliehen. Grenfell wurde im Londoner Stadtteil Battersea geboren. Bereits im Alter von 11 Jahren fuhr er für die East India Company zur See, die Reisen führten ihn mehrere Male nach Indien. Grenfell diente wohl auch in der Royal Navy. 1819 trat er in die Dienste der Republik Chile und war im Chilenischen Unabhängigkeitskrieg unter dem Kommando von Thomas Cochrane, 10.Earl of Dundonald beteiligt. Er erreichte den Rang eines Leutnants. Erwähnenswert ist seine Beteiligung an einer Kommandoaktion zur Enterung der spanischen Fregatte Esmeralda am 5. Februar 1820, Grenfell wurde dabei schwer verletzt. Bereits drei Jahre später hatte er den Rang eines Fregattenkapitäns inne. Mit Cochrane gemeinsam nahm er ab dem Jahr 1823 an den Kämpfen des Brasilianischen Unabhängigkeitskrieges gegen Portugal teil. Persönlich zeichnete er sich hierbei bei seinem gelungenen taktischen Manöver zur Übergabe der portugiesischen Stadt und Festung Pará aus. Grenfell verlor bei einem Gefecht vor Buenos Aires im Argentinisch-Brasilianischen Krieg, an dem er unter dem Kommando eines Commander Norton ebenfalls beteiligt war, am 29. Juli 1826 seinen rechten Arm. Er begab sich zur Erholung wieder nach England, reiste jedoch 1828 nach Südamerika zurück. Er heiratete 1829 in Montevideo Maria Dolores Masini, mit der er acht Kinder hatte. In den Jahren 1835/36 war er mit einer kleinen Flottille an der Bekämpfung von Rebellen auf den Seen von Rio Grande do Sul beteiligt, er hatte Anteil an deren letztendlicher Aufgabe. 1841 wurde er zum Konteradmiral befördert. Fünf Jahre später wurde er zum brasilianischen Generalkonsul in England bestellt und kehrte dorthin zurück, wo er in Liverpool residierte. 1848 war er an der Rettung von Passagieren und Crew der Ocean Monarch beteiligt, er hielt sich für Testfahrten eines für Brasilien in England gebauten Kriegsschiffes zufällig in der Nähe des Unglücksortes auf. 1851 kehrte Grenfell erneut anlässlich des zwischen Brasilien und Argentinien ausgebrochenen Krieges zurück und übernahm abermals seine Flottille in der brasilianischen Marine. Er war an Operationen auf dem Río Paraná beteiligt, wo unter seinem Kommando am 17. Dezember 1851 mit sechs Korvetten und einer Brigg der entscheidende Durchbruch der durch argentinische Artillerie gesicherten Passage bei Tonelero gelang. Grenfell wurde nach dem Friedensschluss zunächst zum Vizeadmiral und danach zum Admiral befördert, ebenso wurde er mit zwei hohen brasilianischen Orden, dem Orden der Rose als auch dem Orden vom Kreuz des Südens ausgezeichnet. Er kehrte 1852 wieder nach Liverpool zurück und nahm die Amtsgeschäfte als Generalkonsul bis zuseinem Tod am 20. März 1869 wahr. Extrem seltenes Ehrenzeichen zur Geschichte des Kaiserreichs Brasilien

1966 Vanden Plas Princess 4 litre R AutoMake: Vanden PlasModel: Princess RYear: 1966Mileage: 80455VIN: VRS36795Configuration: Right Hand DriveRegistration: HOK288DTransmission: automaticThe 'R' in the title of the Vanden Plas Princess 4 Litre R referenced its Rolls-Royce-derived 3909cc FB60 all-aluminium engine of 175bhp, and was in production from 1964 to 1968 as one of BMC's flagship models. This two-tone Peat over Stone (grey) example, with cream leather interior, is described by the vendor as a 'very nice car that runs and drives well' and has recently (June 2020) had brakes and brake lines overhauled, a power steering leak repaired and all its fluids renewed at a cost of £5000 with receipts. The car, with only two previous registered keepers, was previously owned by a member of the Vanden Plas Owner s' Club. The car was registered in the UK in December 1966, but seems to have been initially used abroad for part of its first year, according to the V5C. The odometer now reads 80,445 miles, although this isn't warranted. The paperwork folder includes the V5C, the bill for the £5000 brake work and service, a 2019 issue of the Vanden Plas Owners' Club magazine, an original BMC marketing brochure, and a genuine BMC workshop manual, as well as an owners' club build and dating certificate.
