1980 Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow II Transmission: automaticMileage:78227The Silver Shadow broke new ground for the Crewe Company in a number of key areas, from the sophisticated fully independent suspension with an advanced self-levelling system to four-wheel ventilated disc brakes. The only major components carried over from the Silver Cloud III was the excellent, all aluminium, 6.2 litre V8 and four-speed automatic transmission with fluid flywheel, the latter replaced by GM's excellent 400 three-speed box in October 1968 while the engine was enlarged to 6.75 litres the following year. Although no power output was ever divulged by the company, merely described as 'adequate', the Silver Shadow's superior aerodynamics meant the car was perfectly happy cruising the motorways. No less than eight individual Connolly hides were used to trim the interior of each car and the standard of finish on the upholstery, rich Wilton carpets and burr walnut veneers was impeccable. Each Silver Shadow employed 20 electric motors, powering everything from the radio antenna to adjusting the individual front seats. Build quality on the Silver Shadow remained unsurpassed, each taking no less than 12 weeks to build from start to finish.First registered on 1st February 1980 this Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow II was sold originally by H.A.Fox Ltd in Torquay, this example was specified in its current colours of Willow Gold with Magnolia Hide. Any Rolls-Royce regardless of value, carries with it a significant cost of ownership, one that if scrimped upon is detrimental to the car, so it is refreshing to find within the history file, significant bills for servicing and maintenance. The all-important full brake rebuild was carried out in 2018 at 77,000 miles and the car was last serviced in August 2022 at 77,701 miles. Clearly this has been a very well cared for example throughout its life, the original service books are present and are well stamped, a total of 21 stamps in total can be found including four on the back page of the completed book. The history and work carried out to this Rolls-Royce amounts to an impressive care of ownership. The car is not to be confused with lesser or more poorly maintained examples; this is a delightful Silver Shadow II and still provides a wonderfully luxurious ride.

1989 Ford Escort XR3i Cabriolet Transmission: manualMileage:146376The Ford Escort was manufactured from 1968 to 2004 and was produced in six different model derivatives. The fourth version of the Ford Escort was launched in March 1986, with only a small number of changes over its predecessor. Optional new features included a mechanical anti€lock braking system, a fuel computer on fuel-injected models and a heated windscreen. These changes were welcome at a time when the Escort was faced with a host of new competitors.Supplied new in 1989 by Billingshurst Ford, the sales invoice shows that this Cabriolet was again sold by them to Mrs Strudwick of Billingshurst for the sum of £3,995 and it still retains the original number plates and rear sticker. The car is presented in Azure Blue coachwork, which was repainted in 2021 as part of a full recommissioning in that year. It also included refurbishing the alloy wheels, which were then reshod with new Yokohama tyres. A new exhaust and a full service with new parts completed the job, resulting in a car which is now in fabulous order throughout. Offered with a current MoT test certificate and the car is also supplied with two sets of keys and original radio codes. A great piece of 80's/90's nostalgia.
1995 Jaguar XJS Celebration Transmission: automaticMileage:124098The Jaguar XJS is a luxury grand tourer, produced from 1975 to 1996 and replaced the E-Type. Although it never had quite the same sporting image, the XJS was a competent replacement with better aerodynamics than the E-Type. The XJS was last produced on 4th April 1996, by which time 115,413 had been produced during a 21 year production life. The car was re-engineered in May 1991 and renamed 'XJS' (facelift). The rear side windows appeared enlarged and the buttresses stayed, although their appearance was minimised by the new side window treatment, as designer Geoff Lawson argued that they were part of the car's character. The car received a new 4.0 litre version of the AJ16 engine, at the same time, the car benefitted from a revision to the rear brakes; they were now fitted with outboard rear disc brakes, instead of the more complicated inboard items on previous models. It also received more aerodynamic front and rear bumpers.This example is presented in Flamenco Red with a white coachline and has a cream leather interior. The car has just had a new headlining fitted by Ultimate Cats, Edgeware in 2021 who also serviced the car in February 2023. The car is fitted with electric windows, factory fitted radio and cruise control. This iconic Jaguar is offered without reserve which makes it a very attractive purchase indeed.

The 450 SLC 4.5 model numbering just 31,739.Registered in August 1979, this C107 series has covered 73,000 miles. With a comprehensive history file and a documented restoration to bodywork, including sills and bulkhead areas completed in 2017, this 450 SLC presents and drives superbly. Finished in Astral Silver metallic paint with contrasting Anthracite velour trim and walnut wood veneer centre console. With standard equipment including all electric windows, central locking, power steering. This car has the factory fitted electric sliding steel sunroof, 14€ Bundt light alloy wheels fitted recently with four new period correct tread tyres, a re-trimmed OEM (new old stock) interior trim, and seat belt feeders.

The C107 models have been steadily appreciating in value during the past few years, especially cars of this standard which has featured in Mercedes Enthusiast magazine.
