Recommended Posts

Selling an ercol 459 coffee table, a classic 1960s design. Solid beech legs and stretchers, and a solid elm top.


Excellent, sturdy condition. No wobbles or cracks despite being handmade over 50 years ago.


The grain is incredibly rich and deep, the photos don't quite bring out the depth of different shades. Viewing reccomended. Additional photos available.


It has been finished with two coats of wood protector plus osmo oil in clear satin to ensure that it's hard wearing over the long term and that and spilt liquid simply beads off, giving you ~15 hours to wipe up before any damage to the wood occurs. Finish in osmo oil also means any damage over the years can be lightly touched up and you will not need to strip and sand.


Dimensions: length 41 inches, width 18 inches, height 14.5 inches.


This is an investment piece, generally resale value is ~?300 for a vintage piece in this condition but I'm struggling for space in a house share so need this to move fairly quickly. You can see equivalents for sale:

    • It’s really not the big deal other people (who generally don’t own EVs) claim it is. Full charged our Polestar 2 has a range of 250 miles. It only really gets used for shortish runs to Costco or places that a pain by public transport. Even when my wife commuted with it most days, it still only needed charging every other week.   Generally, I recharge when we hit 20-25% and top it back up to 80-90%. That’s an overnight charge on the char.gy on street chargers at the off peak (midnight to 7am) tariff. There are five chargers on Everthorpe Rd, another three on Oxenford St and at least another five in the surrounding streets - all of these are a five minute walk from my house. So a ten minute detour after dinner on evening to start charging and then another ten minutes to pick it up.  In the unlikely event they were all full/blocked (which hasn’t happened in three years of ownership) then either I’d leave it for another day or if I really needed to go somewhere further than say 30 miles I’d stop at a super fast (150kW) charger and pay the higher fee for a top up (70-80p per kW vs 35p per kW). We sometimes do use the expensive fast chargers when we do longer trips but not that often.  If we were a family that drove 100+ miles a day regularly then having an EV without off street parking wouldn’t work for us, but for us (and I expect most Londoners who have a car) it’s fine. A car club and occasional car hire would probably be cheaper for us, but the convenience makes it worthwhile.  Overall, even with the price hikes for public chargers I still think it’s marginally cheaper than our old diesel.

    • Hi East Dulwich neighbours. I rarely write reviews but am putting this here because I did the leg-work and found a solid, affordable plumber. I had a flooded downstairs bathroom as a result of a cracked toilet. Not nice, needed to be fixed quickly. Sam arrived on time and spent several hours diasgnosing the problem, keeping me updated with costs, finding new toilet and installing. All in a single afternoon. The most important thing was that I immediately knew I could trust him and that he kept me updated with costs throughout the job. I would highly recommend him to anyone needing plumbing work, especially urgent jobs that need fixing immediately. His number is  02036030116.  Cheers, HAPPY CUSTOMER!
