1986 White London Sterling Limousine with Gray Interior. Estimated 100 produced, this was number 68 production according to the plaque in the back seat. Door handle button needs repair, and there is an oil leak that needs to be fixed. Only 16, 374 original miles! Passed MA inspection in 2005. Minibar cabinet in backseat. Purchased a few years back with big plans to restore it but haven't gotten around to it and have moved on. Has a Ford engine inside and all original interior in good condition. Obviously the outside has rusted over the years, but would not take much to get it into collectors condition. VIN is SCRUB751IFD461913.
London Coach was formed in May, 1984 to fill the need for purpose built cabs left by the 1982 decision by Checker Motors (USA) to discontinue cab production. EPA prototype testing was completed in August, 1985. These specialty vehicles were assembled in the US, using glider kits provided by Carbodies and fitted with 2.3 litre Ford engines and transmissions. Two models were available: The London Taxi and the London Sterling. The Sterling was a limousine version of the taxi. Both were available with or without air conditioning. Production for 1985-1986 was reported as 75 to the NHTSA. With the introduction of the Rover Sterling by ARCONA in 1987, London Coach was pressured to discontinue use of the Sterling name. Total production is estimated at 80-100.
