Jenson Button’s old Ford Bronco is currently up for auction, which means you – yes you – have the opportunity to purchase a classic off-roader once driven by a Formula One world champione.

And not just any old Ford Bronco, but one that’s been very tastefully modified. We turn first to the engine, where the 5.0-litre V8 (a 302ci) features better fuel injection courtesy of Fitech, something called an ‘Edelbrock’ filter, and an MSD ignition kit with a push-button start. There’s a better battery and cut-off switch, while the suspension’s been tweaked too – it’s now higher, with Bilstein shocks all round. Rounding off the mechanical upgrades are a set of embiggened Wilwood front discs.

All in, some tasteful upgrades that sit underneath that delightful dark blue paintjob with red accents and gloss black wheel arch extensions, the latter housing 17in ‘Method’ alloys and massive 35in tyres. The headlights are better too, and sit atop a neat pair of KC lamps, and once inside you’ll notice just how clean and spartan – and therefore quite excellent – Button’s kept it. A new cream leather hide shrouds the ‘period-correct’ seats, while there’s a new power steering rack, a new steering column, and even a Kenwood stereo.

Clearly, this is not a car for Britain, what with its lightweight roof frame and soft top and half roll cage, but one perhaps better suited to sunnier climes. Or indeed, it could be a car for Britain, if you’re… let’s say ‘committed’.

“This is an eye-catching custom truck that would make a superb weekend cruiser or beach car,” explains auction hosts Collecting Cars. Once you’ve finished daydreaming about blissed out coastal cruises in the blazing sunshine, check out the listing here.
