In the aftermath of the Second World War, Rover's chief engineer Maurice Wilks used a demobbed' Willys Jeep around his farm in Anglesey and was impressed with its abilities. Eventually, it wore out and he was keen to replace it with a British vehicle, however, nothing remotely similar was available. Coincidentally, his brother Spencer, who was Managing Director at Rover, had reached the same conclusion as he struggled to get his Rover 10 to reach the more inaccessible parts of his estate on Islay. This is where `The Best 4x4 by Far' started - a utility vehicle devised in 1947, they would have no idea that Maurice's resulting design would become an icon and launch a whole new industry sector. The vehicle appeared as the 'Land Rover' in 1948 and proved so popular with the military and the farming fraternity that demand massively outstripped supply.This Series I Land Rover was registered in May 1953 and has been owned by the vendor since 1989. During his tenure, this iconic Series I Land Rover has benefited from an impressive list of work that includes a ground up mechanical restoration. We are informed that the axles have been overhauled, a new clutch, water pump, fuel tank and sender were fitted and that the electrics have been replaced. We are also informed that this classic 4x4 is, unsurprisingly, a joy to drive. The file for this Land Rover contains pictures of the restoration works, a V5C registration document and various bills and receipts. The bodywork was untouched during the work carried out and presents well in classic Land Rover Green with an authentic patina. The canvas covers are also in good order. This Land Rover Series I is a fine example and given the values achieved by recent sales of similar models, appears to be extremely well estimated. Viewing is highly recommended to appreciate its quality.

The Range Rover is a large luxury four-wheel drive sport utility vehicle launched in 1970 and is now in its fourth generation. In 1967, the first Range Rover prototype was built with the classic Range Rover shape clearly discernible although with a different front grille and headlight configuration. The design of the Range Rover was eventually finalised and signed off in 1969. Some 25 years after the introduction of the Range Rover, the second-generation Range Rover model designation P38A was introduced for the 1995 model year with an updated version of the Rover V8 engines. There was also the option of a 2.5 litre BMW six-cylinder turbo-diesel engine. This was a result of BMW's subsequent ownership of Rover Group and hence the Land Rover brand. The new model offered more equipment and premium trims and was positioned above the Land Rover Discovery to face the increased competition in the SUV marketplace. This model was the last to feature the Rover V8 engine and interior leather supplied by Connolly who sadly went out of business in 2002.Manufactured on 28th July 1994 and originally registered on 1st August this pre-production Range Rover has recently been restored to concours condition. This 4.0 SE was used as part of the original press launch at Cliveden and still bears the original registration number of M247 CVC. The bodywork was restored by Eric Tenney of Bodycraft, the Biarritz Blue paintwork finish is excellent. The manual gearbox and transfer case were overhauled by Hardy Engineering and the engine was rebuilt by SRS Engineering. The heating and air conditioning systems were restored and operate efficiently. The air suspension has also been totally overhauled and functions exactly as it should. Supplied with a V5C registration document together with an MoT test certificate valid until 14th September 2022. A comprehensive file with invoice for all the work carried out is present as is a Heritage Certificate. This P38 Range Rover represents a significant piece of British motoring history and appears to be attractively estimated given the pre-production status and remarkable condition.

Handwritten artist's label verso.Note: Douglas Phillips was born and brought up in Dundee. He studied at the former Dundee Art College in Bell Street before being called up to the army towards the end of the Second World War for service in India and Ceylon. On returning to Dundee he began work in the art department of DC Thomson where he illustrated for The Rover and The Victor, amongst others. After leaving D C Thomson’s went on to illustrate over 100 books but also continued to maintain a connection with the company, featuring in more than one thousand issues of The People’s Friend as the pen and brush of J Campbell Kerr. He also documented old Dundee with his lively pen and ink drawings and book collaborations with the late journalist, broadcaster and Courier columnist Ron Thompson. Latterly he followed in the footsteps of two artists he greatly admired, Joan Eardley and his good friend Lil Neilson, producing vibrant, expressive paintings of Catterline and the East Coast of Scotland which he loved so much. His work is held in public and private collections worldwide.
A rare and sought-after, soft-top Mini; UK-supplied with just 12,500 miles, a handful of owners and a recent overhaul.1 of only 75 LAMM-converted Mini Cabriolets, commissioned by Rover, proving the demand for such a car was evident An expensive and upmarket Mini at launch, it proved extremely popular, with all 75 cars selling out within a monthOnly offered in Pearlescent Cherry Red with a matching maroon hood, the luxurious interior included a wood-grain dashboard, Cooper-style leather steering wheel and Clarion stereoAll examples had Mini-Cooper mechanicals and a 1275cc engine with a carburettorThis is a UK example with just 12,548 miles and 2 owners – four owners in total, the last being husband & wifeIn storage from 1995 until a recent full recommissioning and thorough overhaulWhile there have been many independent companies converting Minis, and all manner of other cars into cabriolets, probably the best known of them in the UK was Crayford. Surprisingly, it was not until 1993, some 34 years after production had commenced, that there was an official soft-top Mini.By the late 1980s, there had been a massive revival in everything Mini, especially in Japan, so Rover started to take notice. In 1991, but still commercially wary of producing their own Mini Cabriolet, Rover contacted Lamm Autohaus, based in in Achern in Germany, as their German Rover dealer, who had been producing its own coach-built Mini cabriolets since the 1980s.Effectively a taster exercise to see if there was any real demand for such a car to be sold in the mainstream range, and whether the expense of Rover Special Projects (RSP) could be justified, Rover contracted Lamm to build 75 prototypes. All the cars were built in right-hand-drive form for sale though 12 selected Rover dealers.The conversion was straightforward, Lamm remove the roof, replacing it with a folding fabric convertible hood that incorporated the plastic rear windows. The bodyshell was substantially strengthened to compensate for the resulting loss of rigidity and the Lamm Cabriolet featured Revolution alloy wheels and a colour-matched body kit consisting of dramatically extended wheel arches, front spoiler, side skirts and integral bumpers. It was offered in only one colour - Pearlescent Cherry Red (paint code GOC) with a matching maroon hood, whilst the luxurious interior used the limited-edition Mini Mayfair’s seats and trim, which were complemented by a wood-grain dashboard, Cooper-style leather-covered steering wheel and Clarion stereo system. All cars had Mini-Cooper mechanicals and a 1275cc engine with a carburettor.When it was launched on 23rd June 1991, the list price of £12,250 was high - and immediately cast the car into a rather exclusive niche. It may have been an expensive product, but it also proved extremely popular, and all 75 cars sold out within a month. Rover was convinced, and RSP started to develop, along with Karmann and Tickford, its own version of the car, which was launched just over a year later, with circa 300 examples produced.The Lamm cars have two distinct differences which make them instantly distinguishable from Rover's version: the first is the paint colour. Although the red looks like Rover's Nightfire Red, it is in fact a deeper Cherry Red. The second and more noticeable difference is the hood, Lamm cars have plastic rear side windows, whereas Rover used unique wind-down glass windows.The car presented here is 1 of the 75 examples built by Lamm Autohaus to the highest of standards. Using their years of experience in producing this sort of Mini, the quality of the conversion by Lamm is evident. This lovely example has only ever been owned by four registered keepers in total, with the last two being husband and wife, prior to our vendor acquiring it. He was absolutely smitten with it, understanding the rarity and originality of this particular car, and with so few miles covered, he set about a comprehensive recommissioning including the vulnerable sub-frames. It is now in rude health, mechanically strong and presents in lovely condition. With the intended recipient of the car not that enamoured with actually driving it, it is now for sale to someone who will truly enjoy and appreciate it. Accompanied by all its original manuals, Lamm Mini catalogues and numerous magazine articles about the model, this car is a little gem.

Just over 20,000 miles and totally cossetted. A really lovely example.Supplied new in 2006 by Lookers Land Rover of Bishops StortfordDesirable ‘County’ specification finished in Java Black MetallicJust over 20,000 miles from new warranted by the service and MOT historyFull service in September 2021 @ 19,407 (oil and filter change, rear brake pads)New set of Michelin Latitudes (July 2019.) Chassis steam-cleaned and Waxoyled, November 2021.Full complement of handbooks and manuals, service and maintenance invoices and the original Bill of Sale from Lookers in 2006.The humble Land Rover Defender is one of life’s great classless cars, being favoured by all walks of life looking for a reliable go-anywhere, do-anything vehicle. From Royalty to land workers, from Kensington to Kyle of Lochalsh, you’ll be sure to find a Defender working away exactly as Solihull’s engineers designed it to do.Powered by a plethora of petrol and turbocharged diesel engines and boasting all-wheel-drive, low and high-range gearing, advanced suspension setups and a seemingly endless list of both factory and aftermarket customisation options, the Defender is rightfully referred to as the king of all production off-road vehicles, and remains both a design icon and a landmark part of automotive history to this day.Naturally, this rugged nature - whilst well suited to the Defender - usually means that by this point in their lifetime, many Defenders are looking a bit long-in-the-tooth, having been used to their fullest extent across harsh conditions, as work vehicles or as general reliable runabouts, rather than being cherished family heirlooms or taking pride of place in the garage.However, there are exceptions to this generalisation, and that’s exactly what we have here, with this 2006-registered, Td5-powered, short-wheelbase Land Rover Defender 90.First registered in 2006 and supplied by Lookers Land Rover of Bishops Stortford, this Java Black Metallic ‘County’ example has covered only 20,020 miles from new, and - according to the vendor - retains its original steel wheels, and has never knowingly been fitted with a towbar for haulage work.Boasting the desirable County pack which added some much-needed creature comforts to the utilitarian Defender’s interior, the grey cloth cabin remains virtually unmarked throughout, having evidently lived an easy life and having been cherished by the current owner, who states it is “like driving a new Defender off the lot” due to its immaculate condition.Not only is the interior in excellent condition, but so is the bodywork, with the Java Black Metaillic paintwork still presenting well all these years after it left the factory, and no outwardly visible signs of heavy wear to the bodywork, paint or bumpers.Mechanically, the Td5 engine fitted to this particular ’90’ is in reportedly rude mechanical health, having covered minimal mileage for this sort of vehicle and regularly serviced, with the most recent servicing having been carried out at 19,407 miles in September 2021, including an oil and filter change, new rear brake pads, and - importantly - a course of anti-corrosion under-body wax, which will ensure this Defender remains in excellent condition for years to come.In addition to the recent service, a full set of Michelin Latitude tyres were fitted in July 2019, whilst the chassis was steam-cleaned, waxed and oiled in November 2021. Included with the sale are the original dealership number plates (still affixed to the vehicle) along with the full complement of handbooks and manuals, extensive documentation of works carried out throughout the vehicle’s lifetime, and even the original Bill of Sale from Lookers in 2006.SpecificationMake: LAND ROVERModel: DEFENDERYear: 2006Chassis Number: SALLDVB576A725205Registration Number: EK56 EZATransmission: ManualEngine Number: 15P35721B Drive Side: Right-hand DriveOdometer Reading: 20019 MilesMake: RHDInterior Colour: GreyClick here for more details and images
