Four vintage boxed models consisting of a Mettoy Motor Coach, a Schylling Spiral Race Car, a Kovap Tractor and Trailer and a St John tin toy Sunbeam Record Racer.

With a semi-spaceframe rear end, sequential six-speed box and a 330bhp 2.5-litre Millington engine, this must be the ultimate Mk II Escort. It was to be Colin McRae's final rally car and is on offer directly from the McRae family.The remarkable career of Colin McRae MBE has filled volumes and is too long to list here, but it did include becoming Scottish Schoolboy Motocross Champion at 13, the Scottish Rally Championship in 1988, winning the 1991 and 1992 British Rally Championship and, in 1995 he became the first British driver and the youngest person to win the World Rally Championship Drivers title, a record which stood for 27 years. Success continued with a total of 25 wins in the WRC, a third place at Le Mans in the GTS Class, a win in the Baja 500 Portalegre, stage wins on the Dakar and many other rallies worldwide.Despite the passage of time, Colin McRae is still one of the biggest names in the world of rallying, certainly the most recognised. Colin was an iconic figure at the time. 'Everybody took a step back when they heard Colin driving. He was just using the road as a rough guide. His style and approach were something to watch. At one time he held the record for the most rally victories. His ‘never say die’ attitude, always flat out, it really sat with people and endeared him to them'.But people often forget that he was a mechanic, too. He worked well with engineers and understood how to set a car up and its mechanical limitations. He is frequently discussed in terms of his wild, aggressive style, but if you watched him drive on tarmac at Le Mans or ASCAR at Rockingham, he was really quite smooth. He won two Safari rallies, which takes a lot of mechanical empathy and an intelligent approach as to just how much you can get away with.Here at Silverstone Auctions, we feel truly privileged to have been entrusted by the McRae family with the sale of three of Colin’s favourite cars. They are significant cars in the history of rallying and will be available to view prior to our auction on Friday, August 25th.For some time, Colin had been thinking about building a really special Mk II Ford Escort, the fastest rally Escort ever built. In Colin’s own words,  'The Mk II is the rally car of all time. When my father started rallying, these were the type of rear-wheel drive cars that were at the top level of the sport. I remember watching in the forests and they always sounded the best and looked the most spectacular – sideways. Ever since then, they have stuck in my mind'.So, in 2002, Colin made the decision to start the project and recruited Dave Plant of DJM race prep in Newark to build it. In Dave’s own words,'In late 2002 we were asked by colleague and friend Gordon Birtwistle of Proflex UK Ltd. if we could convert a Mk II Escort into independent rear suspension instead of the conventional live axle, for a rather special customer, this being the late great Colin McRae and of course, we were only too pleased to take up the challenge. The donor car was supplied to us in early 2003 and after numerous telephone conversations with Colin, the project commenced. The original specification was to be an ultra-long wheel travel, gravel rally car. With fully independent front and rear suspension to our own design and using our own aluminium uprights, finished off with a T45 roll cage to support the modifications.Colin first visited our workshop in April 2003 to see how his ‘toy’ was shaping up. He took a particular shine to our brand new, 4WD tarmac-spec KA rally car and it became apparent to him that we were a ‘one-stop shop’ and were able to bring WRC attributes to any vehicle. This led to us doing more work than was initially intended and it was decided on that day that the project was now to be a turn-key rally car designed to be as lightweight, compliant and agile as we could make it.'The full story of this unique car’s build and subsequent testing is well-documented elsewhere but the final build-spec included,A Millington ‘Diamond’ 2.5-litre, 16-valve, four-cylinder engine producing around 330bhp on electronic fuel injection and mounted as far back and as low as physically possibleCleverly designed bespoke exhaust manifoldBespoke DJM sequential gearbox and individual limited-slip differentialT45 bespoke roll-cageDetachable front wings and extremely lightweight body panelsA bespoke carbon fibre complete dashboard and unique instrumentationA single-seater-type, floor-mounted pedal box and internal master cylindersProflex canister fully adjustable dampersAlloy ‘Group A’ Escort Cosworth suspension uprights (all round)Alcon ultimate brake discs and calipersCarbon fibre gear lever and handbrake leverExtended turretsA mid-mounted internal bespoke fuel tank (effectively where the rear seats would be)With the rear axle replaced by independent suspension and weight saving throughout the car, the Escort weighed in at a healthy 930kg further enhancing the car’s remarkable handling and agility.Over the next couple of years many hundreds of miles were covered in testing and on rallies, and the car may have played a small part in rekindling a well-known partnership between Colin and Nicky Grist, who shared the car on the Scottish and the Pirelli. Lots of magazine articles about this amazing car can be found online and there are also several YouTube clips, including one of Colin tackling the famous 'Molls Gap' stage on the Killarney rally in Southern Ireland. In common with all of Colin’s famous cars, the Escort has been modelled in 1/43rd scale by Trofeu Models and Corgi as part of their Vanguard Tribute Collection.Accompanied by its 2005 RAC Logbook, ONM 804V has been prepared to the highest standards and presents superbly. It runs and drives well but is not event-ready and the safety equipment, seats, belts, extinguishers etc. are no longer current so consequently the car will need complete preparation before being run in anger. It has, however, been fitted with new front discs and pads as well as a new clutch master cylinder and new brake master cylinders and, in addition, it’s been looked over and checked by Ian Gwynne of BGM Sport in Brackley. The car is being stored by him until our sale at the Silverstone Classic on the 26th/27th August. He is a friend of the McRae family and seriously interested parties are welcome to speak directly to Ian and view the car prior to the sale if they wish.The Talbot Sunbeam Ti from the 1986 season, which we are also offering, and this remarkable Escort last used by Colin in 2007 effectively ‘bookend’ his career and make these cars so special, particularly as they are for sale for the first time and directly from the McRae family.SpecificationMake: FORDModel: ESCORT MK IIYear: 1980Chassis Number: GCATWT70680Registration Number: ONM 804VTransmission: ManualEngine Number: WT70680 Drive Side: Right-hand DriveMake: RHDClick here for more details and images

1962 Austin J40 Pedal Car Transmission: Mileage:The Austin J40 pedal car is a miniature replica of the Austin A40 motor car produced by the Austin Motor Company in the 1950s. The J40 was designed for children aged between three and six years old, and it quickly became a popular toy car in post-war Britain. The car was made from heavy-gauge steel. The J40 was available in a range of colours, including red, green, blue and yellow.This example is presented in Tartan Red with red interior, white steering wheel and headlights. These examples are highly sought-after and can be seen particularly at the Goodwood Revival. The only silent racing cars at the Goodwood Revival aren't Formula E cars that have snuck in unnoticed. They're the Austin J40 pedal cars of the one-make start-finish thrash that is the Settrington Cup, powered by the kids of the great and the good at the Revival. Without anything close to a single horsepower, a licence to race or even drive they may be, but it's no less competitive. It's a fight down to the wire at the end, too. Slow and steady wins the race with energy reserved at the start fully deployed towards the end to overtake the leader and take the win. With that kind of tactical racing mindset, Mercedes-Benz AMG Petronas F1 may one day come knocking! Today, the J40 pedal car is highly sought-after by collectors and enthusiasts, and original examples can fetch high prices at auction.

2004 Audi RS6 Avant Transmission: automaticMileage:51005The original Audi C5 RS 6 Quattro was the top-of-the-line user of the Volkswagen Group C5 platform and was initially available as a five-door five-seat Avant - Audi's name for an estate or station wagon. Derived from the Audi C5 A6 the RS 6 also shares the aluminium structure from the firewall and forward with the C5 A6s with V8 engines. Official performance figures for the Avant, 0 - 62.1 mph in 4.6 seconds, reaching 124.3 mph in 22.8 seconds. Official figures state an electronically limited top speed 155.3 mph, although most 'RS' owners report that the speed limiter is rather liberal on all RS cars, with genuine 'limited' top speeds of 167.8 mph being possible to achieve.First registered in April 2004, this RS6 Avant is finished in the attractive hue of Mugello Blue Pearl with brushed aluminium-effect door mirror covers, over a black cabin with contrasting cream leather upholstery, featuring a black Alcantara headlining, Recaro seats, embossed 'RS6' lettering on the seat backs and wood veneer trim inlays. A C5-generation Audi RS6 Avant is an appealing and very well-kept example of the lauded modern classic 'super estate', and this one is offered with two owners from new and supported by a detailed Audi main dealer service/maintenance history. Under the bonnet sits a twin-turbocharged 4.2-litre V8, delivering around 444bhp to all four wheels via a five-speed ZF automatic transmission with paddle shift. The factory specification includes front and rear parking sensors, headlamp washers, an Audi Navigation plus media system with satellite navigation, dual-zone automatic air conditioning, electrically adjustable heated front seats, heated rear seats, and a Bose sound system including boot-mounted 6 CD autochanger.The car comes with all the owner's manuals with a black leather wallet, two key fobs, a hard-back sales brochure, the box for the RS6 keyring, all tools, the V5C, the fully stamped service booklet and an extensive collection of maintenance invoices, MOT certificates and print-outs.  Having always been serviced by the original supplying dealer, Finchley Road Audi, the most recent inspection was carried out in September 2022 at 47,370 miles, which also included an engine oil service and new brake fluid, previously in October 2020 at 41,930 miles which included a new timing belt and water pump. Jun 2005, 3,416 miles at Finchley Road Audi Aug 2006, 6,880 miles at Finchley Road Audi May 2007, 9,243 miles at Finchley Road Audi May 2008, 13,900 miles at Finchley Road Audi Apr 2009, 17,249 miles at Finchley Road Audi Apr 2010, 21,186 miles at Finchley Road Audi Mar 2011, 23,654 miles at Finchley Road Audi Apr 2012, 26,399 miles at Finchley Road Audi May 2013, 28,703 miles at Finchley Road Audi May 2014, 31,254 miles at Finchley Road Audi Jun 2016, 35,729 miles at Finchley Road Audi Jul 2017, 37,898 miles at Finchley Road Audi Aug 2019, 40,984 miles at Finchley Road Audi Oct 2020, 41,390 miles at Finchley Road Audi Sep 2022, 47,370 miles at Finchley Road Audi  This Audi RS6 Avant is a fastidiously maintained example of the desirable modern classic 'super estate', offered with two owners from new and supported by a detailed Audi main dealer maintenance history. Reported to be in excellent overall condition given its age, with a powerful twin turbocharged V8, it would make a fine addition to any collection and an exciting yet eminently usable daily driver, weekend toy, and family road trip companion.
