Unique Land Rover Defender marks two millionth car built at Solihull
This one-off Land Rover Defender has been built to commemorate the two million Series models and Defenders built at Solihull since 1947…
It's the little things...
As the Defender enters its final phase of production, Land Rover has aptly created ‘Defender 2,000,000’, a bespoke example marking two million cars and almost seven decades of production at its Solihull factory. Built and assembled with the help of several well-known advocates of the Defender, the car will be sold by Bonhams in December, with the proceeds going to charity.
Special features include engraved/embossed maps of Red Wharf Bay, where the original Land Rover was first drawn in the sand, Indus Silver satin paint, an aluminium plaque signed by everyone who helped assemble the car, and ‘S90 HUE’ registration plates, a throwback to the ‘HUE 166’ plates worn on the first ever pre-production Land Rover.

Imitation game – Auctionata to offer replica Benelli 250 in Berlin
They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. Whether or not that's the case, we’re utterly taken with this replica Benelli 250 to be offered by Auctionata at its ‘Classic Cars’ sale on 26 June…
Labour of love
An exact replica of the racing 250 from 1968, this Benelli was built to the original plans, comprising authentic parts amassed from markets and classic motorcycle events over a number of years. As such, it apparently runs just like the real one, too. Perhaps most stunning is that custom-built front panel, merging seamlessly with the rest of the petite bike, giving it that unmistakeable, almost romantic ’60s Italian Grand Prix character. We also love the hand-stitched leather seat (in tan, naturally), attesting to the high standard to which the whole bike has been finished. Estimated to fetch between 15,000 and 20,000 euros, it will cross the block at Auctionata’s evening ‘Classic Cars’ sale, on 26 June 2015 in Berlin.
