- Bespoke Abbott coachwork and featured in The Autocar (16/2/1934) - Pictured in 'Coachwork on Rolls-Royce 1906-1939' by L. Dalton amongst others - Original registration number, engine and mother of pearl inlays etc Further Info: Highlighting its `straight waistline, swept tail, and swept valanced wings and running boards', The Autocar also pictured chassis GGA3 as part of an article entitled `Coachwork of Character - A Review of Special Bodies of All Types for Large and Small Chassis' which was published on February 16th 1934. One of just nine 20/25 chassis to be clothed by E.D. Abbott Ltd of Farnham, the Sports Saloon was supplied new to Mrs Duffus of Cumberland Court, London W1. The Rolls-Royce's elegant exterior was complemented by an equally stylish interior featuring mother-of-pearl inlays as well as leather upholstery and silk pulls. Intended for use `in the UK - mainly touring' and to carry two passengers most of the time, the Sports Saloon belonged to tank commander Lt Colonel C.M.F. Deakin by late 1945. Thereafter, it is known to have passed through the hands of Colonel R.J.K. Fenton (Woodbridge), Paddon Bros (London), Dr F.L. Lawson (Ontario), Dr J.C. Wain (Pennsylvania), James F. Labadie (Ohio), Dale W. Beavers (Ohio), John H. Parnell (Louisiana), Lyn Thomas (Dyfed), Les J. Jones (New Tredegar) and Norman Cawood (Skipton) before entering the current ownership during February 2011. Extensively restored by Mr Cawood between 1995 and 2010, chassis GGA3 has since been treated to a new headlining, stainless steel exhaust and Wilton carpets not to mention being reunited with its original `BPA 440' number plate. Illustrated in `Coachwork on Rolls-Royce 1906-1939' (L. Dalton), `The Flying Lady' magazine and the Rolls-Royce Owners' Club's 20/25 handbook, the Sports Saloon has undertaken several longs runs but otherwise been sparingly used by the vendor. Said to have an `intermittent fuel gauge' and `leak on the nearside rear spring auto lube pipe' the seller also feels that this handsome and historic Sports Saloon `would benefit from a thorough service prior to sustained usage'.

- A pleasingly original and matching numbers example - Repainted this year, recently serviced with an engine overhaul c.2006 - Accompanied by Owners and Maintenance manuals Further Info: 1 of just 1,302 made, this handsome left-hand drive 911T Targa is a Federal specification example manufactured in March 1973 and distributed to its first owner via Porsche Cars San Francisco. The comprehensive specification included from new: sports seats, audio speakers and aerial, leather steering wheel, 911S-style oil tank, and front seat covers. The Porsche was imported into the UK in 2003 by a previous British keeper, at which point it was treated to a restoration by Gantspeed - this included a thorough overhaul of the 140bhp 2.4-litre engine and the suspension and braking systems, plus a respray in Blood Orange (the original colour was Chrome Yellow). Since 2012, `YJL 93L' has been largely maintained by independent marque specialist GCR Central of South Wigston, Leics, who have been responsible for replacing the fuel injection system, dampers and tyres. Last year the car was employed by Porsche Cambridge to assist with the launch of the new 991 Targa. They also performed a Classic Car Service on the vehicle in July. A fresh respray in Blood Orange was carried out as recently as March of this year. The vendor currently considers the 911's bodywork, paintwork, flat-six engine and five-speed manual transmission to all be in `excellent' order, and the Black leatherette trim to be `complete and very good'. He is now offering this very attractive, matching numbers Porsche complete with: Fuchs alloy wheels; original owners' and maintenance books; original Blaupunkt radio modified for iPod connectivity; Porsche Cars Great Britain Certificate of Authenticity; and an MOT certificate valid to August 16, 2015. Values of early 911s such as this F Series example have been climbing fast of late, so `YJL 93L' provides the opportunity of enjoying `fun in the sun' motoring aboard an appreciating asset, and if that's not better that money in the bank, we don't know what is!

Lionel Messi match worn ChampionsLeague shirt - Original match worn shirt FC Barcelona with number 10. Worn by Lionel Messi in the UEFA Champions League match against Bayer Leverkusen on 14th February 2012 Bayer Leverkusen - Barcelona CF (1:3). Messi assisted with the first goal and scored the 1:3 in the 88th minute. Nike-Dry Fit, size L, unwashed! With Lionel Messi's original signature. This shirt is the most popular shirt in recent football history and created quite a stir with the media. Status: AAA. With original Championsleague badge und UEFA "Respekt" Badge at the sleeves. With mounted "FIFA World Champions 2011" badge. Embroidered Nike emblem and FC Barcelona emblem. Inside the Barcelona badge shows the Catalan inscription "Tots Units Fem Forca" (Together we are strong). Gummed sponsor name, number and name. Gummed washing instructions. Breathable holes on the inside enforced with synthetic material. A shirt with an extraordinary history. Bayer Leverkusen played FC Barcelona in the first leg on 14th February 2012 in the round of 16. They were one goal behind after the first half. The "scandal" happened when the whistle was blown: Leverkusen captain Manuel Friedrich and defender Michal Kadlec both went to Messi and fought over his shirt. Friedrich got it and Kadlec made sure that he would get Messis second shirt after the second half. Leverkusen sports director Rudi Völler critized his players and ordered that Kadlec had to donate his shirt for a good cause. During the German TV show "Gottschlak Live" comedian Oliver Pocher bought the shirt at an auction. He spent 12,000 Euro for the shirt and won against other celebrety bidders, among them some German international football players. Messi signed the shirt during the second leg on 7th March 2012 and Pocher had it auctioned at the charity auction of "Aktion Kinderlachen e.V." It was sold for 8,000 Euro there. The shirt is sold by the buyer of the last auction. Most of the Messi shirts on offer are fakes. Ore they are original shirts that Messi donated for charity auctions but never wore. Original match worn Messi shirts are hardly ever on offer because even for the best and most popular players Messi shirts are something special so they'd keep them to themselves because Messi definetely is the best player in the world. The same goes for Messi's autographs: He is protected from fans by security staff and thus doe hardly ever give autographs. Approximately 90% of the so-called Messi autographs are fakes.
