Powered by the 150bhp,16v four cylinder engine first seen in the Renault Clio Williams, and latterly in the original Megane 16v Coupe, and given it’s relatively light weight, the Sport Spider turned out to be a positive “Road Rocket” with 60 mph. coming up in 6.9 seconds on it’s way to a maximum of 134mph.

Only 60 right hand drive models were manufactured during its short production run of 18 months, and this particular example has covered only 3,290 miles from new as detailed on the MoT certificate dated the 2nd April 2015, making it a rare and interesting proposition.

Take a seat behind the wheel and you instantly know that this car means business; quite simply it’s more race car than road car. A single aluminium bar dominates the dashboard with only three dials set into a central pod. A speedometer was not part of the package and a rev counter, oil and water pressure gauges were all that were deemed necessary. To complete the sports car feel, there are body-hugging Recaro bucket seats, a leather trimmed steering wheel and adjustable pedals to enable the driver to achieve the absolute optimum driving position.

Renault Spiders always prove to be popular when we have offered them in the past, and with its low mileage and sensible guide price this one will not disappoint.

Described as being in superb condition throughout, this beautiful black, left hand drive Carrera 3.2 was originally supplied and registered in the United States in June of 1985 (original COA from Porsche is included) and subsequently did very little mileage over the next 3 years being mainly used for display purposes in a showroom. The car was then exported to Japan in 1988 and, unlike many Japanese market cars where the service history runs dry, we are informed by the vendor that the service book contains stamps from ‘Mizwa Porsche’ of Japan giving the following information: 09/11/1988 - 21602km, 30/03/1992 - 29225km, 25/07/1996 - 40468km, 17/04/2001 49906km, 05/10/2004 - 60371km, 14/05/2010 - 69822km.

Our new lady owner took the decision to return her somewhat “down at heel” little Pagoda to rude health and set about a programme of restoration, overhaul and improvement. All the body and coachwork was carried out by Gratt Motors in Manchester and the mechanical side of the project was entrusted to Roger Edwards of Amersham. It is difficult to establish a time line for all this work but there is great pile of invoices to substantiate her expenditure which includes the following; New 3-piece Clutch, new track rods, replaced brake calipers and rear pads, replacement brake servo, overhauled master cylinder, new gear linkage, new distributor and alternator, new battery, new steering bushes, overhauled

At Gratt Motors the car was fitted with new sills, rear lower wings, a new boot floor and painted a sparkling Mercedes White. New seat belts were fitted as were new Charcoal Grey carpets, 2 new door mirrors and a new Navy Blue soft top.

There is no doubt that the Mercedes-Benz 280SL “Pagoda” is a handsome car, especially when finished in a delightful colour combination like this with Ivory coachwork, a contrasting Blue Hard Top and a lovely Blue interior. The instruments and dials throughout the cabin all appear in first class order, as are the brand new carpets, seatbelts and belt clasps.

The engine bay is authentic and clearly well preserved, but not unnecessarily restored. Working parts carry a reassuring tinge of grease and there’s little sign of the car having been detailed in a bid to deceive. It works as it should and looks as it should; the perfect recipe.

No fewer than 18 stamps adorn the service book traceing this car’s history from 1968 and suggesting, a believed genuine, total mileage of fewer than 55,000.

This little 280SL presents exceptionally well, perhaps better than many restored cars we see. The boot floor is the best this scribe has seen, which for an unrestored car speaks volumes

about the care and dedication that this one has enjoyed. The original wings have, apparently had some paint in the last few years, but this has been done so well that I confess it needed to be pointed out to me. The colour combination is timeless and stylish, and the overall feeling from the car is one of deep honesty and charm. The soft-top roof is nearly new and fits snugly, the hard-top, though unrestored is in very good order too. Furthermore, this Pagoda is shod with four new Vredestein Classic Tyres, as is the boot mounted spare.

We’re pleased that this car is accompanied by a full complement of tools, handbooks, the service book, a Motorola owner’s manual to operate the dash-mounted radio, and other sundry invoices.

Not to be mistaken with the ordinary, this is a fine car with a new MOT to May 2016.

1991 Porsche 964 RS

Introduced in 1992 the Porsche 964RS came in three variations.

They were produced in the standard RS model with two other options, the MOO2 (Touring) and the MOO3 (N/GT, also known as the clubsport). The N/GT’s were the lightest models and had a welded in Matter rollcage and it was essentially a race ready car for track or road. The stripped out interior was painted body colour and the seats were the narrower Recaro type with full harnesses. Standard equipment included a fire extinguisher and electrical cut-out. It still remains one of the most accomplished club racers ever factory produced.

Offered here is the first production 964RS N/GT carrying the chassis number ending in 9011. It was not sold through the usual dealer network but was allegedly given to Ulrich Richter, a dedicated Porsche only race driver who had endeared himself to the brand with successes in the eighties. The gift was to entice Richter back into GT racing which worked with substantial success as results including third at the Daytona 24HRS in 1994 driving a 911RSR. The Maritime Blue RS was customised for him for use at his favourite circuit, the Nurburgring. He sold the car in 1993.

followers, guides, pistons, rings and all new bolts. The engine was dyno’d and produced 305bhp at 6150 rpm. In 2006 the suspension and brakes were replaced which included discs, pads, sensors, springs and shock absorbers. All the wheel bearings were replaced at the same time. Subsequent work has included a clutch replacement, heater, starter motor and distributers. It was decided in 2008 to refresh the paintwork with a full glass out repaint at a cost of £16,383 which was entrusted to Ninemeister. A new central rear light decal comes ready for fitment if required. The V5 shows five owners since arriving in 1995. The comprehensive history contains all the service details, the Porsche Letter of Authenticity and all the MOT’s from 1995 through to 2015. ( MOT for 2006 not present as it may have been SORN). It comes with its RS Owners manual.

With ‘RS’ values showing little sign of abating this interesting Porsche represents a great investment. It comes with a full MOT ready to be enjoyed.

The Porsche RS came from Germany to the UK and was registered on 1-11-1995 having covered 30,000kms.

In 2005 the engine was fully rebuilt by specialist Ninemeister to include top and bottom ends with bearings, camshaft chains, valves, carriers, uprated springs and retainers,

1974 Porsche 911 Carrera 2.7 MFi Targa

The Porsche 911 Carrera 2.7 MFI model was built for all markets, except for the United States and used the 210hp engine from the 1973 Carrera RS making them mechanically identical. Introduced in 1974 on the new G-Series chassis the floor pans were strengthened, lighting was improved and larger bumpers incorporated. With the proven 210bhp, 2,687cc air-cooled horizontally opposed six-cylinder engine on Bosch mechanical fuel injection, 0-60mph was achieved in just over 5 seconds and the car was geared for 150mph through its 5-speed manual transmission. The suspension was fully independent with torsion bars, McPherson struts and anti-roll bars. The total weight was just over 1,075 kilograms, which made the Euro-spec 2.7 MFI a very fast car in its day. In fact, it was the fastest production 911 until the late 1980s.

This Carrera is one of, we believe, just five manufactured Targa MFi’s with a ducktail spoiler in right-hand drive making it an exceptionally rare treat. #4610253 was delivered by A.F.N Middlesex in July 1974 to Mr Newey of Stratford-upon-Avon. It was sold in 1993/1994 to Mr Perkins of Hampshire, and then again to our vendor in 2002 whereupon he took it to his home on the Isle of Man, registered it there in May of that year and that’s where it has remained ever since.

Contained in the extensive history file is the original sales invoice from A.F.N confirming this car to be a UK specification Targa in Grand Prix White with Midnight interior, and to be optioned with a Limited Slip Differential. It was assigned the registration mark ‘WME 94M’ which records indicate has not been re-assigned, and which one may reasonably assume could be married back to this car should it remain in the UK after auction.

When purchased by our vendor the car was registering a genuine 59,000 miles. Even today, it still displays a mileage in the low 60,000’s. There is an MOT showing 14,500 miles in 1978, before picking up annually in 1983 at 33,538 through to 59,303 miles in 2000.

Still sporting its original factory GP White and Midnight interior colour scheme, this car presents in all round good original order with no rust or corrosion evident. Its been largely home maintained in current ownership with regular fluid changes and often run to temperature, but as the mileage indicates, it has been little used on the road. The carpets have faded a little over time, but they’re not tatty. The cloth seats are showing signs of their fourty years, but again, are not scruffy, ripped or torn. This really is just a genuine, matching numbers and charming car with no lurking nightmares.

2007 Ferrari F430 Berlinetta F1

The Pininfarina designed Ferrari F430 was manufactured from 2004 until 2009 as a successor to the fiercely popular Ferrari 360. Its fabulous a 4.3 litre V8 would rocket this very sleek new Ferrari from 0-62mph in just 3.7 seconds and on toa maximum speed in excess of 196mph, and a recorded 0-62mph in just 3.7seconds. A true Supercar. Styling-wise, Pininfarina ‘borrowed’ from Ferrari heritage with the fitment of Enzo rear lights and Testarossa style wing-mirrors with the F430 designation etched into them.

Offered here is a quite incredible 2007 Berlinetta F430 with fewer than 3,000 miles and just one owner from new. Supplied in Singen, Germany by A. Gohm Ferrari to a Mr Heinz Lange, this car sports the very unusual special order of Black and Red Daytona style leather seats which look fantastic and really set the car apart. Married to the inevitable but obligatory Rosso Corsa paintwork and looking resplendent as you’d expect from such a coveted car, she’s a real eyeful to behold.

Complete with Ferrari V.I.P (vehicle identification passport reportedly, a mere €5,000) this lefthand drive configured F430 with F1 paddle box gear change can be docile in traffic, yet

The full specification of this car is too long to list, but highlights include twin-spoke five arm alloys shod with Michelin Pilot tyres, red brake callipers, Scuderia shields, electricallyoperated Daytona style seats, complete set of embossed Ferrari luggage (for the refreshingly spacious boot space!), Fuchs big-bore stainless steel sports exhaust which was optioned from new, correct Ferrari over mats, front and rear parking sensors, Rosso diffuser and bespoke Ferrari car cover including seat and steering wheel covers too.

It really is impossible to fault this car. It’s everything you’d want in a Ferrari. The Berlinetta provides a much more user-friendly, and dare we say, ‘less-ostentatious’ ownership experience, whilst the F1 paddle box provides a docile and effortless drive in traffic or around town, and purposeful Grand Tourer legs for those European blasts..

1972 Porsche 911 2.4S Coupé

1972 marked the arrival of the Porsche 911 2.4 S, the technical advances in developing this vehicle forming the engineering foundation for the landmark Carrera RS of the following model year • The McPherson strut and trailing arm geometry which remained unchanged right up to the 964 model of the 1990s • The first aerodynamic aid with the lip on the front bumper spoiler • The totally new 915 transmission carried through up to the G50 transmission of 1987 • The long stroke engine bottom end, that ran through to the 3.2 Carrera of 1984 • The low compression engines that are still happy on to-day’s low octane unleaded fuel • The optimally located oil tank ahead of the rear wheel, pioneered in the 911R of 1968 and reverted to in the ‘90’s cars, market forces meant this was sadly abandoned for the RS and 1973 models.

The advances made in the 1972 models are where the 911 technical evolution settled into a more modern pattern, whilst

Add to this the improved stability and the enlarged 2.4-litre flat-6 engine, and it is easy to see how these changes and detail improvements all served to produce a car which rewards the driver with a gutsy, tenacious driving experience.

The car offered here is an original LHD example with its matching numbers engine, confirmed by its Porsche Certificate of Authenticity. First registered in March 1972, this 2.4 911S Coupe is presented in its original Light Ivory with a black interior. The car was initially built for the Italian market, moved to France in ‘73 and spent most of its life in West Paris, before being imported to the UK by Autofarm in 1997 at only 69,000 mls.

In excellent order inside, outside and underneath, and on its period alloys this specimen drives as a 911S should.

After an engine rebuild in 2001, only some 16,000 miles ago, a rolling road test in 2006 still produced an impressive 196 bhp., and the car has clocked just 5,000 miles since a gearbox overhaul by Autofarm in 2012.

Recent owners have been diligent in the car’s cosmetic upkeep, the car coming with a quality fitted indoor cover. Even the smallest blemishes received their full attention, the current owner having been a very recent Director of the Porsche Club GB. The fitting of a stainless steel exhaust, pressure-fed tensioners, and a full set of Bilsteins further cement the level of care and maintenance lavished on this little Porsche, mainly by respected marque specialists Autofarm, who have been charged with looking after its health for the last eighteen years.

1972 Ferrari Dino 246 GT

An official letter dated March 18th, 2015 from the Maranello Archive confirms that this left-hand drive 246 GT Dino was manufactured in April 1972 and delivered new to Ferrari’s authorised dealer, Luigi Chinetti in New York and on to its first owner in Ohio. The car’s factory specification included air conditioning, electric windows and Cromodora wheels.

Alhough not officially designated as such, there were three distinct series in the production of the 246 Dino and Chassis 03846 is an example from the last, known as the ‘E’ series.

The official Dino Register traces this Dino’s history almost from new, showing early ownership in Texas by a Dr Ahlschier, then, in 1988 via Ed Niles (a well-known Ferrari expert in the USA) to Mr Leslie Ward in England, whose ownership lasted for the next twenty seven years.

After importation to England in 1988 the car was unregistered during its restoration, finally being recorded with the DVLA in 1994 with MoT Certificates confirming that the car has travelled only 7,910 miles during the last twenty one years. Although little used during this period, a number of invoices in the history file confirm that the car has always been serviced and fully maintained. Most importantly, and very unusually for a Ferrari Dino, the car is described by the vendor as remarkably rust-free due, no doubt, to its long sojourn in the dry State of Texas, followed by careful storage and very little use since its arrival in England.

The Jensen Interceptor was a sporting GT-class car, handbuilt in the UK by Jensen Motors between 1966 and 1976. The car broke with a Jensen tradition by having a steel body shell instead of a glass-reinforced plastic one and by having the body designed by an outside firm, Carrozzeria Touring of Italy, the firm more recognisably associated with the likes of Aston Martin, Lamborghini, Maserati and Alfa Romeo.

The engine was a Chrysler V8, initially of 6276cc, with optional manual transmission, but the more common choice was the TorqueFlite automatic transmission and drive was via the rear wheels through a limited slip differential and a conventional Salisbury rear axle. The engine grew to 7212cc in late 1971 and it acquired 4-barrel carburation.

The original specification included electric windows, reclining front seats, a wood rimmed steering wheel, a radio with twin speakers, reversing lights and an electric clock. Power steering was included as standard from September 1968.

The Mark II Interceptor was announced in October 1969 with revised frontal styling and ventilated disc brakes, and shortly afterwards, in 1971, came the Mark III. It had revised seats, fully cast alloy wheels plus some other improvements. Latterly, a convertible with a powered soft top was introduced in 1974,

and this was mainly intended for the American market but also sold in Europe. Just 267 convertibles were made, and here is one of the best!..

Built in 1976, but registered in 1977 this striking left hand drive Mk.IV Jensen Convertible was delivered to its first and only owner, Mr Sydney Ford of California, USA where it remained throughout its 50,000 miles until the passing of its owner, and repatriation to the UK. Still retaining its matching V8 powerplant and offered in factory build sheet colours of Royal Blue paintwork, blue interior and blue hood - the inside of which being a mushroom colour for lightness as per factory original - the car has recently been repainted to result in a deep lustre, making the entire package irresistible.

Turning the key fires the enormous V8 engine to life at the first time of asking. Everything behaves as you would expect and according to our vendor, the engine performs faultlessly in unison with the automatic gearbox which helps to propel the car easily through country roads and modern traffic.

Yes, it’s true that the braking capability of a car manufactured in 1979 could be bettered, but this only serves to keep you honest and road-legal. The seats could benefit from a leather feed, but they’re not ripped, tatty or torn. The glove box has had to be recovered because a previous owner applied a plaque to it and in some lights the replacement covering can be noticed.

In six months’ time, with patination, this may level out, but these are minor points anyway. The important thing is that the overall condition, feel and experience of the car is incredible and we rate these Turbo 3.3s very highly indeed.

If Porsche had produced an actual limited-edition 911 Turbo with Martini Livery, there’d be a record of the number made, but because the Martini stripes were only an option (M42, for those in the know) then no one truly knows exactly how many cars were factory equipped with them. Research suggests that around 24 right hand drive Turbos were produced in 1979 and the car here today is believed to be one of them.

The Indian Motorcycle Manufacturing Company of America was founded in in Springfield, Massachusetts in 1901 by Oscar Hedstrom and George Hendee, preceding Harley Davidson by 2 years. Their factory became affectionately known as the “Wigwam”.

Between 1902 and 1908 they set many famous records including a World speed record for a motorcycle, in 1905 the first American “V” configuration engine, record breaking TransAmerica by a motorcycle, and (as if to rub it in) the English 1000 mile reliability trial. Many great American racers such as Erwin “Cannonball” Baker, Charles “ Fearless “ Balke and Jake DeRosier made their name riding Indians. By 1910, they were the largest manufacturer of motorcycles in the world. In 1911, Indian decided to enter three motorcycles in the Tourist Trophy on the Isle of Man. With chain drive, great reliability and a two speed gearbox, the sleeved down 1000c bikes ridden by

The motorcycle you see today represents a unique opportunity to purchase a very rare Indian that has been sympathetically and meticulously restored to a very high standard, including the rather quaint leather race knee pads.

Correspondence tells us that it was originally owned by J.O. “Jack” Cunliffe, a well known sand racer and regular competitor on bikes and cars at Southport Sands.( More info in the history file).

The current owner completed the restoration with a view to riding a commemorative lap at the 2011 Isle of Man TT. Circumstances, however, dictated a change of plan.

A chance to own and enjoy a wonderful motorcycle with lots of history.

1926 SUNBEAM SPORT SPECIAL

Registration: N/A Frame Number: OP760 Engine Number: 290/691 Year of Manufacture: 1926 Estimate (£): 18,000 - 20,000

John Marston started his first company in 1905, specialising in Japanning, and this craft became associated with all their later bicycles and motorcycles. He started naming the bicycles “Sunbeam” at the behest of his wife and the factory was also renamed Sunbeam Land. Early experiments with engines proved difficult and it was 1912 before they released their first machine, a 2.75 HP, designed by a member of the AJS motorcycle family - Harold Stevens.

The model in today’s auction was part of the collection of the late Rick Webb and among his favourite machines. There are no surviving pre-war records for Sunbeams, however, we are confident this machine started life as a 1925/1926 Model 9.

At some point, the frame was modified very professionally to a Model 10 Sprint. The Druid forks were the latest type incorporating suspension and damping and are from a similar period. The small sprint tank incorporates both petrol and a separate compartment for oil. All other cycle parts were common to both road and sprint machines. One of the most interesting parts which may give a clue to its intriguing history, is that it has a Sprint-only works rear wheel. All road going Sunbeams had the brake hub on the off side apart from the works “sprint “ machines that were on the near side.

The machine has not run for a couple of years and so a careful recommissioning will be required. Beautifully finished in black with Gold leaf pin-striping and a nice historic patina.

Designed by BMW Head of Design, David Robb, the R1200C was BMW’s attempt to tap into the Harley Davidson cruiser style market, and was a significant departure from their previous endeavours.

The BMW R1200C is a Harley-Davidson rival with German engineering. Like most cruisers, it sells on looks. The power characteristics of the R1200 are typical of large capacity twin cylinder cruisers where low down torque is more desirable than outright speed. Dynamically it’s better than many of its rivals thanks to quality engineering and light(ish) weight. With its low centre of gravity, lengthened wheelbase (1,650mm) and modern suspension, BMW’s radical cruiser has pushed roadholding standards, arguably, even higher.

Exhibited in many Museums around the World (Guggenheim included) effectively as a Work of Art and the winner in several countries of Motorcycle of the Year and Cruiser of the Year, these motorcycles are approaching cult status.

Displayed in a showroom for virtually all its life, and with only 311 miles logged the motorcycle on offer today is, as might be expected, in excellent condition and has been very realistically priced compared to the cost of a current brand new cruiser.

A great bike to ride now or as a long term collectable machine.

In the early 1970’s Mercedes-Benz built what many people believe was the finest automobile in the world. For the buyers who wanted wind in their hair there was no finer choice than the 280 SE 3.5 Cabriolet which combined with the powerful 3.5-litre V8 was the fastest, most sumptuous and most expensive convertible that money could buy at a MercedesBenz dealership. This was the first Mercedes-Benz to feature a V8 engine, and it didn’t disappoint! These ultra-luxurious models came equipped with air-conditioning, power-steering, automatic transmission, electric windows and radio’s as standard fitment. It was a car that appeals then and now to great enthusiasts. This model should not be confused with the other similar looking Mercedes-Benz Coupes or Cabriolets that were available in vast numbers since 1963, (220, 250, 300 or even 280SE V6); as this was Mercedes’ first V8 and to accommodate this superb engine the grill had to be designed lower & wider.

Our vendor believes that it was converted in the 1980’s by a company in Frankfurt, although there are no bills in the history file for such work. Documents in the history file lead us to believe that the car has resided in Germany, Belgium and the Netherlands during its lifetime, before being brought to the UK by our vendor most recently. Import duties have been paid, and hence a NOVA reference number granted. Please be aware that the new purchaser will have to register the car with the DVLA to obtain a UK V5c and UK registration.

In May of this year, the car was sent to Mercedes-Benz specialists, SS Motors of Weybridge, for a full vehicle inspection & report, an MoT and work which included removal of old fuel pipes and re-fitting new ones, strip down and reassembly of off-side front hub, greasing up front suspension along with a host of other jobs, for which there is a bill of £1,700 in the history file.

With original 280SE 3.5 Cabriolets now commanding premium prices, this example, albeit a conversion of a coupe, is a presentable car that will cause a stir when you pull up at any classic event this summer.

1963 Mercedes-Benz 230 SL Pagoda

Originally delivered new to Hong Kong in 1964, and not repatriated to the UK until 1981, this stunning Mercedes-Benz Pagoda still retains its period Log Book from its time overseas.

Finished in Diamond Blue Metallic with contrasting Blue hide interior, this fine example of the marque boasts an incredible history file with considerable sums having been lavished on the car in its time.

Perhaps the most significant expenditure has been since 2007, during which period this Mercedes has undergone a complete nut and bolt restoration by recognised and skilled craftsmen.

The body work was prepared by Nigel Cooper Coachworks of West London, renowned for their Concours winning skills with Mercedes-Benz, Aston Martin and Facel Vegas and the gorgeous paintwork, trim, engine rebuild and finishing were completed by respected Mercedes’ experts, Roger Edwards of Amersham. The result is an absolutely stunning example of this classically beautiful car and as close to ‘perfect’ as we, in the old car game, dare to award....

We understand, but can’t confirm, that this car could re-enter and be registered in Hong Kong with no duties or taxes to pay.

Even those with nothing but a passing appreciation for classic cars, can’t help but be bowled over by the condition, quality and beauty of this Mercedes which, we’re confident, could not be replicated for less than £160,000 today.

Manufactured in October 1972 and registered to its first owner, a Mr Colin Trayte of P.B. Sharpe & Sons Ltd, Cornwall in 1973, this striking 3.0 CSL is presented in its original colour of Taiga Green. Used as a company car for the next 9 years, this Munich express was purchased by its second owner, one Brigadier T. Sampson CBE of Bodmin in 1982, who was to own the car until 2002, although it was off the road for the last 8 years of his ownership.

Our vendor was lucky enough to fulfil his dreams in 2002 when he purchased this car in a rather poor condition. Work was immediately undertaken by classic BMW specialists Cooks Ferry Engineering, to repair most of the problem areas and to make the car roadworthy and reliable. Included in the history file are all the bills from the aforementioned specialist, and well-known parts specialists Jaymic. Our vendor then used the car as his primary transport for the next seven years without any problems.

In October 2010, he decided that the car deserved to be restored properly, and entrusted Titan Motor Services of Colchester to handle the project, with Walloth Nesch and Jaymic supplying new OEM panels to ensure the best possible body finish.

1968 Mercedes-Benz 280SL

The Mercedes 280SL ‘Pagoda’ was introduced in December 1967 and continued in production through until February 1971.

The W113 was then replaced by its successor, the entirely new and substantially heavier R107 350SL. Over the years, the W113 evolved from a ‘sports car’ into a comfortable ‘grand tourer’, and was usually equipped with the 4-speed automatic transmission and air conditioning. The obvious change from its predecessor was the upgrade to the 2778cc M130 engine, which purists will tell you, finally gave the Pagoda adequate power. Now suitably refined, the car proved popular in the US market, however we’ve recently seen a significant increase in demand here in the UK, partly due to the 190SL rising beyond the budgets of many.

In the 1960s the Land Rover represented almost 90% of the Australian 4×4 market and this level of success was repeated in other areas such as Africa and the Middle East.

In February 1968, just a few months after its manufacturer had been subsumed into the Leyland Motor Corporation, the Land Rover celebrated its twentieth birthday, with total production just short of 600,000, of which more than 70% had been exported.

Good examples of Series IIs and IIAs are now beginning to achieve classic status, and are starting to appreciate in value, although many are still in daily use.

In 1967, a 2.6-litre, six cylinder petrol engine was introduced for the long-wheelbase models which also, finally, got to benefit from servo-assisted brakes. 811 of these were NADA (or North American Dollar Area) trucks, which were the only long-wheelbase models made for the American and Canadian markets.

Certainly, it was whilst the Series IIA was in production that sales of utility Land Rovers reached their peak, and in 1969/70 sales of over 60,000 Land Rovers a year were recorded.

1974 Jaguar E-Type Series III V12 Manual

Jaguar introduced the E-Type in March 1961 to worldwide acclaim. Early forays into motor sport were rewarded in May of that year when Graham Hill celebrated the type’s first win at Oulton Park. Success on the track was reflected on the road and was to continue right up to 1974, with over 70,000 E-Types eventually produced in Coventry. From 1961, the E-Type evolved and improved in its lifecycle from the original Series 1 Coupés and Roadsters, through the Series 2 cars of the late 1960s until finally the Series 3 arrived in late 1971, this 5.3 V12 being only available as a convertible or a ‘2+2’.

1959 Mercedes-Benz 190 SL Roadster

The Mercedes-Benz 190SL is a two door convertible manufactured between May 1955 and February 1963. In terms of styling, engineering and suspension, the 190 closely resembled its big brother the 300SL, however the smaller car did not use the 300SL’s purpose built tubular space frame but was built instead on a modified shortened saloon platform.

We are always advised not to use the expression “as new” but, I would suggest, that if you walked into a Mercedes- Benz dealer in Germany in 1959 this is what you would see.

This car had spent many glamorous years under the California Sun and therefore was solid and rust free when it underwent a meticulous nut and bolt restoration. All the work was fully documented with a large photographic file showing before, during and after pictures. There are dozens of pictures. You don’t take dozens of pictures unless you are really proud of

1970 Mercedes-Benz 280 SE 3.5 Automatic

Registration: Unregistered NOVA issued Chassis Number: 11102622003805 Engine Number: Not Specified Year of Manufacture: 1970 Estimate (£): 50,000 - 60,000

The Mercedes-Benz 280 SE Coupe was a style statement totally in tune with the sense of extravagance in Central Europe at the end of the sixties. Although quite a large car, with all the windows down it had all the chic of the French pillar-less coupes of the late 50s, but with acres of expensive leather and Burr Maple it oozed Germanic luxury.

The interior is in original Tan leather and is in very good order throughout as are the Maple wood cappings and dashboard and the white steering wheel. The word “Patina” is often incorrectly used but the interior of this lovely green Mercedes has that wonderful “lived-in feel” of a London Gentleman’s Club.

This is the desirable 3.5 litre, V8 model made for just two years from 1968 and is equipped with the automatic gearbox. The car has lived in the dry Australian interior for the last couple of decades which probably accounts for its rust free condition today.

These large Mercedes Benz cars have superb reliability and bullet proof mechanics. The engine starts readily & pulls well through the smooth auto box. Braking is likewise reassuringly powerful. The car is in fine order with a very original unmolested feel to it.

The odometer indicates 11,719 miles and, we understand, has been round the clock once. The Paintwork is finished in deep Fern Green Metallic; a colour that really suits the car.

We think you will approve.

2002 Aston Martin DB7 Vantage V12 Automatic

The DB7 Vantage was first introduced at the Geneva motor show in 1999 with a 6 litre V12, 48 valve engine giving 420bhp and 400 lbs/ft. of torque. The car was offered by the factory either, as a manual (with Tremec T56 6 speed) or Auto (ZF 5 Speed) transmission. The car was the first really quick DB7, after the original lack lustre straight six offered from launch was dropped. Both suspension and brakes were uprated on the new Vantage and the car was extremely well received by the motoring press for both the significantly increased performance and the handling improvements.

The service book is stamped as follows:

Offered here, is a DB7 Vantage V12 Automatic supplied new in the UK through H.W.M Aston Martin of Walton-upon-Thames on 29th May 2002. This example is finished in Stonsay Silver with a light grey leather interior, the seats are piped in Pacific Blue and the dashboard and carpets finished in the same colour. The specification of the car includes 18� alloy wheels, cruise control, a multi-CD player, heated electric seats and satellite navigation.

1989 DeTomaso Pantera GT5-S

Introduced in November 1984 one of the final incarnations of the Pantera was the GT5-S of which less than 190 were produced. A further evolution of the GT5, the S model had blended arches and a distinctive wide-body look. The ‘S’ in the GT5-S name stood for “steel”, as unlike the GT5, the entire body was of steel construction.

This particular Pantera GT5-S is one of the last produced, having been built in 1989, and is an original RHD UK car, one of only 17 RHD GT5-Ss out of a total factory production of 187 sold worldwide!

Looking resplendent in Rosso Corsa with a Crema interior, it’s in lovely condition both inside and out and is a really nice example of a piece of Italian exotica. The car has been well maintained and regularly used, always the best way to ensure that any classic runs well, and in fact last year completed a trip to its Modena birthplace in Northern Italy.

Non-standard components on the car are confined to the engine internals, (though the original block is retained), heads, headers (originals with the car), valve covers (originals with the car), and the fitting of a reliable mechanical oil pressure gauge to supplement the factory item. This displaces the original clock, which has been retained and is supplied with the car to facilitate a return to standard. As the block is original and the majority of the ancillaries are present, the car could easily be returned to the original factory specification.

An incredible blend of Italian style with American muscle.

1999 Bentley Azure

The Bentley Azure was introduced in 1995 and was based on the platform of the Continental R coupé which had been launched in 1991. The Azure often surprised with its size and bulk, intended to both convey a sense of presence and allow for the comfortable seating of four adult passengers. Power came from the company’s stalwart 6.75 litre V8, featuring a single intercooled turbocharger producing in the region of 380bhp. The gearbox was a General Motors sourced, fourspeed automatic unit with the Azure capable of 0 to 60mph in an impressive 6.1 seconds. Owing to the limited space at Bentley’s Crewe factory, the Azure was assembled and finished by Pininfarina, significantly adding to the vehicle’s production cost. From 1999, the Azure was also available in ‘Mulliner Trim’ which added special bespoke details and additional equipment, thus allowing the buyer the option for further customisation during the build process.

This stunning Bentley Azure was originally registered on 16th September 1999 to a gentleman from Cyprus, as a present for his daughter. Sadly, he passed away shortly afterwards and the car was used sparingly for many years. It was then decided by the family that the Azure required professional maintenance, due to the exceptionally low mileage of only 215 miles. The car

Now reading just 217 miles, which we believe to be accurate based on its impeccable condition, this Bentley is finished in Sunrise Orange, with a cream leather interior and matching hood, and the car presents beautifully. The paintwork is very hard to fault and the panels gaps are all arrow straight. The interior is as close to new as one could possibly imagine.

The cream leather and stitching is in perfect condition and is commensurate with a car that has travelled such low distances. The carpets are all original and look unused and the hood is in stunning condition and works faultlessly.

With just one registered keeper from new and showing delivery mileage, this Bentley Azure must be seen to be appreciated. Inspections are encouraged and we welcome any pre-sale viewings. The car will be serviced prior to the auction and all fluids will be changed. Supplied with a current MoT and a decent history file, this Bentley Azure is simply unrepeatable and we feel collectors would be hard pushed to find another example in such pristine condition.

1969 Lynx-Jaguar XKSS

The XKSS was produced following the decision made by Jaguar to pull out of all motorsport at the end of 1955. Sir William Lyons converted their 16 remaining ‘D-Types’ to road going specification for the American market by adding a passenger door, a full-width windscreen and wipers, an exhaust heat shield, sidescreens, a folding roof, bumpers all round, a luggage rack and rear light clusters. It was to become a complete icon of the era, an outstanding and good looking car driven by the privileged few, including movie stars of the day such as Steve McQueen. Values of the original cars range from £8-£10 million today, if you can find one.

Highly respected Lynx Motor Cars was founded in 1968 and quickly made its name restoring and maintaining original C-Types, D-Types and E-Types of the period. Their decision to recreate D-Types and XKSS versions based on Series II E-Type engines and running gear was a logical one, based entirely on their experience with the original cars. Since then over 430 cars have passed through their workshops, either as recreation projects or original cars being restored or maintained. They have built ten XKSS versions over the years of which only three (including this one) have been left-hand drive. Their cars are bespoke and made only to order, making this a very special and rare opportunity.

1964 Jaguar MkII 4.2

By Lynx

This gorgeous MkII started life as a 3.8 model and in 1999 its owner decided that the time had come to restore his beloved Jaguar, and by utilising more modern technology take the car to the next level. He approached Lynx Motors of Sussex who are renowned for the quality of their restoration and remanufacture of historically important Jaguars and their brief was to restore the car and upgrade it in a number of areas with the proviso that it still retained its original look. This they did very successfully, and an indication of the amount of work carried out is provided by invoices, which accompany the car, totaling over £100,000.

The car has been fitted with an uprated 4.2 Litre engine coupled to a more modern Jaguar XJ40 4 speed Automatic Gearbox, the suspension upgraded to Lynx Engineering standards, the brakes fully uprated and servo-assisted, and the car now sits on a set of sparkling chrome wire wheels.

This car has been meticulously maintained and has a full service book stamped from new to 58,470 miles (Aug 2013) with two folders of receipts for all the work carried out.

Sutcliffe summarises by saying “blindingly quick and hyper responsive in a car which also has a full sized boot unlike the Elise and Renault Sport Spider of the time.”

This Caterham 21 is a rapid and nimble little roadster and, with its distinctive looks and relative rarity, is sure to turn heads.

The Ferrari F355 is a modern classic, so beautiful, so well engineered and so well received that it marked the beginning of the end of the old guard ‘Ferraristi’ philosophy that the only “real” Ferraris were ones with 12 cylinder engines. The Ferrari F355 Berlinetta and Targa GTS burst onto the world stage in the spring of 1994 with almost exactly the same dimensions as its predecessor the 348, yet it was virtually a new car, as its stunning coachwork indicated. Many hours of wind tunnel testing influenced the harmonious shape, which incorporated a Formula One style flat bottom with channelled airflow generating enough downforce to offset any lift.

The XK120 was launched in 1948 and was an international sensation finally putting Jaguar on the world stage, and with the cars successes in competition a hugely positive period began for the company. The XK150 was the final incarnation of the XK line and appeared in May 1957. A more refined and capable machine than its predecessors, the 150 was easily identifiable by its higher scuttle and door line, wider grille and improved interior space. However, the XK150 retained much of the mechanical layout of the XK140 sharing the same 3.4 litre DOHC Jaguar straight-six, which developed 180bhp at 5750rpm.

1970 Lotus Elan S4 SE

Handles like nothing else can...the Lotus Elan.

Colin Chapman said... ‘In producing the latest Lotus Drop-head and Fixed-head Coupe models, my design team set out to combine the outstandingly successful chassis, suspension and handling of the Elan with finely styled bodywork which would add functional good looks to the traditional Lotus handling and safety. We specified the comfort and silence of a luxury saloon (...) Finally, I demanded even higher standards of safety, quality and reliability than those which have made the Elan famous (...)

All these objectives have been achieved in the new Lotus Elan S4 and I am proud to offer it for your consideration’.

The ‘Special Equipment’ version differs by having servo assisted brakes, an SE engine developing 118 bhp instead of 105 bhp, safety belts, a leather covered steering wheel, knockon wheels with chrome embellishers, carpeted boot interior and Special Equipment badges.

Sold new in the UK in March 1970, this beautiful Lotus S4 SE Drop-head Coupe is finished in bright red with a black leatherette interior. A file with over 40 years of continuous and extensive history comes with this attractive little sports car. The mileage, while unwarranted, of 78,400 is backed by service history and MOT certificates dating back to the 1980s.

Known modifications to originality are a free flow K&N air filter instead of the restricting original airbox, a modern radiator to improve cooling capacity and a stainless steel exhaust.

The Ferrari 348 series marked a radical departure in the way Maranello constructed its cars, replacing as they did a chassis of traditional steel tubes with a much stiffer monocoque structure attached to a tubular rear subframe. Suspension remained independent front and rear with wishbones, springs, telescopic shocks, antiroll bars, and revised geometry. The ventilated disc brakes were much larger than those of its predecessor the Ferrari 328, and used anti-lock technology.

A midship mounted V8 returned, but it was larger and more powerful displacing 3405cc, mounted longitudinally and mated to a transverse gearbox. The displacement accounted for the new car’s Ferrari 348 designation. A higher compression ratio and updated fuel injection helped generate 300 horsepower, 30-40 more than the Ferrari 328, whilst dry-sump lubrication gave the new Ferrari a lower centre of gravity.

A fresh service has just been carried out in Denmark and it is described as ready to go. Finished in Giallo Fly Yellow with a black leather interior, the car presents very well indeed.

The 348 has been largely ignored in the Ferrari market and offered here for sale is surely one of the best value Ferraris in the UK. With values of its predecessor, the 328, edging closer to and sometimes beyond £100,000 and its successor, the F355, selling above the £50,000 bracket, this 348 offers ideal entry level Ferrari ownership for a most realistic outlay.

The 348 was the last design under the supervision of legendary chief stylist Leonardo Fioravanti. Taking cues from the Testarossa, its lines were softer than those of the 328 but still curvaceous, the side strakes being the most obvious Testarossa inspiration. The wheelbase was longer than the 328’s and the track wider, giving the interior more space.

1990 Lancia Lancia Delta HF Integrale 16V

Despite the fact that the 8 valve Integrale had dominated the 1988 World Rally Championship, Lancia knew that further upgrades, and particularly more power, were needed to keep the car competitive with newer rivals. Accordingly, the extensively developed 16 valve car appeared a short time later, and made a winning debut on the 1989 San Remo Rally.

This superb, left-hand drive, Lancia Delta HF Integrale 16v is finished in lovely Nero Metallic with a Grey Harlem interior.

Showing 74,500kms (46,000mls), the car is presented in excellent order having spent most of its life in the ownership of a European collector, who cherished the little Lancia and took it with him whenever he moved.

The turbocharged 2-litre Lancia engine, already a powerful, refined performer was further developed for the Integrale 16v.

Generating 200 bhp. (149 kW) at 5500 rpm, it took the car to a maximum speed of 137 mph (220 km/h) and from 0-100 km/h (0-62 mph) in 5.5 seconds. Larger injectors provided higher power output and more effective use of the fuel feed at high engine speeds. The response of the Garrett T3 turbocharger was immediate, thanks to the reduced inertia of the turbine removing turbo-lag, and a highly efficient intercooler enabled the engine to run at high outputs for longer without compromising reliability. The new over-boost system used a proportional electrovalve to increase engine torque to 220 lb/ ft (298 N•m) at 3,000 rpm. All these improvements made the road-going version of the Integrale 16v a spirited, reliable and inherently safe car.

First registered in Spain, and later in Holland, a move to Switzerland dictated that he, sadly, had to part with the car as the big Turbo and the lack of a Catalytic Convertor meant that the car fell foul of local regulations and could not be registered.

1989 Porsche 911 930 Turbo

The 911 Turbo, introduced in 1975 and remaining in production until 1989, was sufficiently different from previous versions to earn a new, 930, model number. Externally distinctive with its “Whale Tail” rear spoiler, wide tyres, bulging wheel arches and macho stance, 930s were also equipped with air conditioning, electric windows, a leather interior, tinted glass, headlamp washers and Bilstein shocks as standard. After two years the engine was enlarged from 3 litres to 3.3 and power outputs increased over time, from 260 to 330 bhp. Turbo lag was an ever-present problem, only really being resolved in the last year of production in 1989 with an engine re-map and the introduction of a five speed gearbox giving a much more useable power band.

With 330 horses available, mostly at the same time, a 4-speed gearbox and the 911’s distinctive handling characteristics, inappropriate use of the throttle could quickly turn a scenic drive into a drive through the scenery, however the 1989, 5-speed car offered here is considerably more user friendly.

The, Guards Red, Turbo for sale today has been in the same ownership since 1993 and has been meticulously maintained and serviced at, either an Official Porsche Dealership, or an acknowledged Marque Specialist. The body and paintwork are in excellent condition as is the lovely original interior.

Service documents and the MoT Certificates support the claimed total mileage of 68,600 and the car comes complete with all the Owners Manuals, an original Porsche cleaning kit, puncture repair pack and two sets of keys.

With its “Tea Tray” rear spoiler and “Look at me” presence the 911 Turbo somehow came to represent the unfortunate excesses of the Eighties, but that image has faded over the last few years and the Turbo is now seen as a wonderful iconic classic Porsche.

One for the discerning owner and not to be missed.

From the collection of retired professional rally driver Kevin Videan.

During the 1970s Kevin Videan competed in a number of national and international rallies, as a works driver for Datsun he helped to establish the Datsun 240Z as a legendary rally car, and in his personal Porsche 2.7 Carrera RS lightweight, Kevin won the 1977 Gremlin Motoring News Rally. In later life Kevin established a small, but perfectly formed, collection of best of breed British motor cars. We have the honour of offering three of Kevin’s motor cars at this sale and this fully restored 1965 E-Type, which has been meticulously and professionally converted from a fixed head coupe to a roadster at a cost of more than £50,000, and has covered just 3,950 miles since restoration.

Today this E-Type presents itself in totally outstanding condition, but more importantly it’s what’s under the famous bonnet that counts. Of the numerous new parts and upgrades fitted during the restoration of particular note are the following; GAZ shock absorbers are part of the new suspension arrangements, four pot calliper brakes, a Kenlowe fan and a new synchro gearbox. The history file boasts

numerous invoices attesting to the quality of the restoration and conversion, and included in the sale are the original E-Type 4.2 Owner’s handbook, recent E-Type maintenance book, a weighty tome in itself, a copper hammer, jack and a wooden spinner remover.

When purchased by Kevin, the car’s fourth owner, it needed a certain amount of re-commissioning, having been in storage for some eight years. The car was carefully worked on by respected racing motor engineer and restorer Giles Beck who carried out a major service and fitted a new battery. A copy of his report can be found in the history file. He is quoted as saying “After eight years of storage I found this car to be in remarkable condition which is testament to the superb restoration it has received. On a test drive I could find no faults.

This is one of the best E Types I have driven.”

With restored Series 1 E-Types soaring past the £150,000 mark, this car offers the buyer an opportunity to own, drive and enjoy one of the very best examples on offer at a third of the price. The car will be presented at auction freshly serviced, and has an MoT until March 2016, ready for roof-down summer motoring or continental touring.

1995 Porsche 911 993 Coupe

The 993 was the last of the Porsche 911 range to feature air cooled flat six engines and they’re viewed by many aficionados as the finest 911s ever produced. The 993’s handling and overall driveability were markedly better than its predecessor, a product partly of a wider track but mainly as a result of the all alloy multi-link suspension set up, which replaced the traditional semi-trailing arms of previous iterations and no other 911 could demonstrate such high speed cornering stability. The transmission was improved with the arrival of a six-speed manual gearbox (a first for Porsche) which not only surpassed the previous four and five-speed gearboxes in usability, but was smoother and a lot more satisfying. Mechanically, the cross-drilled brakes were larger and a dual-flow exhaust system was fitted.

Externally the bodywork was revised to give a more rounded style with wider rear arches, much prettier than its successor the 996 and a shape to which Porsche returned with the 997.

This stunning example is finished in special order paint (F8 Midnight Blue Metallic) with the interior in Grey Leather. An original UK, Right Hand Drive and Manual Gearbox example,

this lovely Porsche has been fastidiously maintained throughout its life, the last 15 years of which has been in the custodianship of our vendor.

Showing 77,578 miles at the time of consigning, the car is presented with a fully detailed service history as can been seen below. This 993 has been maintained as per factory recommendations almost solely by Porsche Main Dealers except for two services by a local marque specialist. Most recently, in November 2014 the car received a major service, including belt replacement, and has covered a mere 150 miles since.

With this comprehensive history file, the Porsche service book pack, service invoice records and other invoices relating to maintenance, it’s easy to see that no effort has been spared in looking after this lovely little 911.

This example is in wonderful condition all round and represents a great opportunity to own a desirable and useable modern classic.

Surely one of the motor industries best kept secrets, the Sierra Cosworth Road Sport was an affordable, high performance saloon with lower production numbers than its Sapphire and 4x4 cousins. Despite motorsport being in its DNA, the RS Cosworth is versatile and usable and these cars are swiftly becoming collectors pieces with values climbing accordingly.

The result of a Ford Motorsport project aimed at producing a winning European group A car, the RS is equipped with a YBB 16 valve, twin cam engine with the road going version producing around 204bhp. This power was transmitted through a Mustang 5 speed gearbox and the suspension, chassis and aerodynamics were all developed using race technology. The commitment to creating a legitimate, race winning car is evident in the bodywork and styling, with the large rear wing designed to ensure stability at speeds in excess of 300km/h and the openings between the headlights creating a good airflow to the intercooler.

wheels were rebuilt and zinc coated by James Wheldon, using new rims and spokes.

n later life Kevin established a small, but perfectly formed collection of best of breed British motor cars. We have the honour of offering three of Kevin’s motor cars at this sale and this immaculate Austin Chummy, named Bluebell by her former owners, a family ownership of some forty five years, is beyond doubt one of the finest examples of the Chummy available today.

In keeping with cars of this vintage the electrical components required upgrading to 21st century demands. A 12-volt conversion was skilfully carried out, enabling Bluebell’s resilvered headlamps with original glass to shine brightly. The 12-volt conversion was so skilfully done that only an expert can tell it has been done at all. Bluebell also features many period details such as an extra wing-mounted Shell livery can, a spare Shell liveried oil container, a bulb horn, a genuine baby Klaxon horn, wing mirrors, luggage rack and fire extinguisher among many others. Of particular note is the spare plug container made of solid brass that holds a set of Lodge plugs and carries an inscription of the car’s name and restoration details.

So with the formalities over with, please allow us to introduce Bluebell. Her birth certificate has her registered on the 28th March 1930, giving her age as a, not inconsiderable, eightyfive. In keeping with many starlets of the inter-war era Bluebell was beginning to show her age during the 1990s and her family decided, that after a couple of decades of ownership, she should get the restoration she deserved. They embarked on a thirteen year, full body off, journey of restoration using the best Austin specialists available including Roach Engineering.

The engine and running gear were worked on by Mac Bonar working with Sutton Rebores, who re-bored the engine and fitted new pistons, new valve guides and valves and a high volume oil pump. The radiator was re-cored by Anglia Radiators, the chassis components were shot blasted and the

When Kevin took ownership in 2008 he wanted to improve Bluebell’s interior, and although the PVC interior was skilfully done, he wanted a touch more luxury to complement the extraordinary bodywork. Commissioning renowned upholsterer Kerry Colson, the interior re-trim took a month with a final bill of £4,000. Bluebell now has one of the finest Chummy interiors, if not the finest available.

As the war progressed Willys-Overland produced over 300,000 Jeeps and the Ford Motor Co. was drafted in to help boost production and contributed over 250,000 units. Ford manufactured Jeeps were recognizable by their pressed steel grilles as opposed to the Willys’ slat grille style.

Considering the manner in which the Jeep was conceived and its role in warfare, it’s remarkable that most of the finest classic car collections will include a Willys or Ford WWII Jeep, making the restored example offered here a candidate for serious consideration should one of these yardstick cars have, so far, eluded you.

1963 Lotus Super Seven Series 2 1500 Cosworth

The original Seven was designed in 1952 as a potential Riley engined Formula Two car for the 52/53 season but the project was later abandoned. However, after the Lotus Eleven entered limited production in 1957, the Seven was resurrected in the form that we all came to know and love. The Lotus Seven S2 followed in 1960 and was supplemented by the Lotus Super Seven S2 from 1961. The Super Seven initially used the larger Cosworth modified 1340cc Ford Classic engine and later examples were fitted with 1498cc or 1599cc engines.

The general layout of the Lotus Seven design has spawned a host of imitations on the kit car market, generally called Sevens or sevenesque roadsters. Many of those cars are still produced to this day.

This 1963, Lotus Super Seven Series 2, is powered by a 1498cc Ford Pre-Crossflow Cosworth engine. Presented in good condition, this car has recently returned from the States where, we are told, the last owner enjoyed his little Lotus for some 31 years. The car was restored in the 1990s, with we are led to believe, the engine, transmission and gearbox being rebuilt.

At some point all the aluminium panelling was removed from the chassis and the chassis blasted, checked carefully, and painted before the car was re-panelled. Most of the panelling was replaced, apart from the rear quarter which was still in good order and the rest of the car painted and generally tidied.

So pleased was the owner with the result, that the car was then subsequently promoted to a heated studio and used sparingly.

Over the years, with the very nature of the Seven, owners will change things to suit their own requirements, however the vendor believes this car to be particularly original and correct, with the ultra rare early instruments, the original stamped Serek 5 ½ gallon fuel tank and the proper carburettor as fitted.

Supplied with a Lotus Certificate of Provenance, V5c and a fresh MoT certificate issued before the sale, this car must be of consideration if you are interested in a Chapman designed car that inspired a generation..

In 1999, Ferrari knew that it was time to replace their much loved 355. The 360 was introduced to critical acclaim and immediately set a new benchmark for supercar styling and performance. The 360 Modena design was revolutionary by making extensive use of lightweight materials in its construction resulting in a much lighter car along with increased rigidity. Ferrari also paid particular attention to improving the under-body aerodynamics using knowledge gained from their F1 programme and the 360 boasts a completely flat bottom with two prominent rear diffusers.

The 3586cc engine produced a staggering 400bhp resulting in a 0-60 time of just 4.4 seconds and a top speed of 186mph. Pininfarina produced an exceptionally clean, low drag profile without the need for additional wings, flares or blisters. Another striking feature is the large glass rear screen that proudly displays the engine in all its glory. Introduced at the Geneva Show in March 1999 the 360 Modena, not unsurprisingly, swelled Ferraris order books and within weeks there was a two-year waiting list.

On offer here is an elegant LHD Ferrari 360 Modena with F1 gearbox finished in Grigio Grey with Black leather interior. The car is in excellent condition all round and has only covered 48,500kms (approx. 30,000mls).

1969 Mercedes-Benz 280 SL Pagoda

The Mercedes 280SL ‘Pagoda’ was introduced in December 1967 and continued in production through until February 1971.

The W113 was then replaced by its successor, the entirely new and substantially heavier R107 350SL. Over the years, the W113 evolved from a ‘sports car’ into a comfortable ‘grand tourer’, and was usually equipped with the 4-speed automatic transmission and air conditioning. The obvious difference from its predecessor was the upgrade to the 2778cc M130 engine, which purists will tell you finally gave the Pagoda adequate power. Now suitably refined, the car proved popular in the US market, however, we’ve seen a significant increase in demand here in the UK - not least due to its predecessor, the 50’s 190SL, rising beyond the budgets of many.

This example is a beautifully renovated 1969 Pagoda 280 SL automatic. The restoration was undertaken by Byprof in Denmark and the work was carried out to a very high standard.

The following parts were replaced during the renovation:

This car will be driven by a Silverstone Auctions employee and potential purchasers are welcome to contact the office for a fair description of this car’s condition and photo/paperwork. This Pagoda is described as driving really well. 280 SL Pagodas are one of the most popular and practical classic cars money can buy and, judging by this example, we can certainly see why.

1978 Volkswagen Beetle Last Edition LEB

As is well known, the VW Beetle was initially designed to provide cheap transport for the hard working German masses.

Built in very small numbers before and during World War II, the Beetle literally rose from the ashes of Volkswagen’s bombed out Wolfsburg factory to become an instant success in Europe, Britain, America and virtually every other country in the world. The model evolved through various facelifts and numerous mechanical changes - there were more than 70,000 identifiable modifications - and it provided a platform for other models, including commercial vehicles and sporting derivatives such as those by Karmann-Ghia. It was this constant development and attention to detail which allowed the Beetle to maintain its position, and as production raced past the 15,000,000 mark, the Beetle went on to be crowned ‘The Best Selling’ car of all time.

Volkswagen produced the last 300 German manufactured right-hand drive beetles in 1978 and they were all finished in the very special ‘Jubilee Silver’, a colour unique to this batch and never used on any other model year. The vehicles were each equipped with a 1200cc engine (the most famous of

all), blue corded velour trim, a flat screen (as a nod to the past), heated rear window, fresh air blower and a handbrake dash light. Finally, a dash mounted plaque states the vehicles number in the sequence. This example, number 111, is known throughout the VW owners club and features on the official LEB register.

Reading an unwarranted 7,250 miles, number 111 was the subject of a sympathetic restoration between 2011-2013 and is in lovely condition. The Jubilee Silver paintwork is bright and the interior is immaculate. All brightwork and chrome are ‘as new’, the glass is original and the engine bay is tidy. A number of bills detailing expenditure and a current MoT are with the car and it has recently been serviced by respected VW specialist Veedubs.

The LEB was produced in smaller numbers than any previous special edition Beetle and in our opinion is a very significant collector’s car or would make an ideal first classic for an enthusiast at a most reasonable outlay.

Celebrating its 40th. Anniversary since being first introduced in 1975, the Jaguar XJS was produced until 1996 as their flagship sports car. As the successor to the E-Type it had big boots to fill which it did admirably with a total production run North of 115,000 units worldwide. It was available as a coupe, a targa top (XJ-SC) and a full convertible - from 1988 onwards.

This car is an early UK production XJS Convertible V12 supplied new in September 1988. A low mileage car from its early life onwards, the first owner kept it from new until 1998 when he sadly passed away and ownership transferred to his widow who then put it into professional long term storage. The mileage on 2 previous MOT certificates in the limited history file show that in 1996 it had covered 11,958 miles and when it went in to storage the last MOT in March ‘97 confirmed 14,214 recorded miles. Recovered from storage and finally sold on in June 2007, the vehicle was then briefly

Then returned to long term storage and taken off the road again, the car finally changed hands for the third and final time in September 2014, when it was once again recommissioned and fully serviced with total expenditure in excess of £7,000.

The car was then sent for MoT in March 2015 with a mileage of 15,163 and today the car has covered just over 15,500. Finished in an unusual, but very pleasant colour combination of Satin Beige metallic with Magnolia Hide, this is a rare opportunity to enjoy a low mileage Jaguar convertible that has been recently recommissioned and is now starting to enjoy the classic status it always deserved.

2000 Mercedes-Benz S600L Ex Sir Elton John

As with each new S-Class, the W220 brought in a number of innovations such as Airmatic air suspension and Active Ventilated Seats. A navigation system with centre- console mounted screen display was introduced, along with the COMAND input control system. Other options included keyless entry and ignition, a radar-controlled Distronic cruise control system and a cylinder shut-off system called Active Cylinder Control.

The engine range started with smaller 3.2L 224 hp V6 motor, which was superseded by an enlarged 3.7 L 245 hp V6 in the S350. The S430 was powered by a 4.3 L 279 hp V8 and the S500 was powered by a 5.0 L 306 hp V8. The S600 was outfitted with the naturally aspirated 5.8 L 367 hp V12 engine.

Are you ready for love? Because you’re sure to fall for this Mercedes-Benz S600 with just one registered keeper from new, Sir Elton John.

As one would expect, the car is highly optioned and from looking at the accompanying build sheet it almost looks as though no option box was left unticked, with some of the more stand out options including;

From the collection of retired professional rally driver Kevin Videan.

Built in Longbridge in 1964 the car was dispatched to Ruette Bray Motors Ltd. of Guernsey, who sold it for £623.10 to local hotelier J.C. Masters. Being a conscientious chap Mr Masters joined the Jersey and Guernsey Automobile Association, and a letter from the Area Secretary of the AA welcomes Mr Masters to the organisation, although we are unsure if the doughty Mini ever gave Mr Masters cause to use their services. The car was then sold in 1969 via Kenmir Cars Ltd. to a Mr Orford its second keeper, again of Guernsey, for £230.00. An original sales invoice has been included in the history file. Returning to the British mainland and registered with the DVLA in 1976 the car received an MoT certificate that stated the mileage was a mere 25,982. At the time of consignment, the car’s current mileage is a warranted 54,700 miles.

The history file boasts twenty-three old MoTs, twenty-one tax discs, a raft of invoices, AA membership correspondence, original BMC handbooks and comes complete with a boxed genuine wooden steering wheel bought new in 1964. This car just keeps on giving, an envelope that held the car’s

BMC Handbooks being discovered underneath the driver’s seat. Today the car presents in truly great order, having last year been treated to a sympathetically light restoration as a 50th birthday present, and the interior remains original. The exterior wood trimming has been re-varnished, highlighting the impeccably preserved original wood, a rare sight on contemporary Travellers of this vintage.

The car features early Mark I characteristics such as a smooth roof, exterior door hinges and dry suspension. The interior of the car is as box fresh and original as the day it left Longbridge, with just faint age-related stains to the headlining.

Early features include the ‘magic wand’ gear lever, cable pull interior door openers and, of course, the original push button floor starter.

Of the 207,000 variants of this car made from 1960 until 1969, it is said by the Traveller and Countryman Register that only 398 cars are registered with them in twenty-nine countries. Not only does this truly best of breed example offer an impeccable history file, low ownership, an original interior and superb exterior, it is a true survivor that will enhance the collection of any British motor car enthusiast.

Introduced in May 1961, the Jaguar E-type 3.8 Fixed Head Coupe was a sensation with fabulous looks and amazing performance unrivalled at the price. Often heralded as the most beautiful car of all time, Jaguar, not surprisingly, made no significant changes until the introduction of the 4.2 engine in October 1964.

The example offered today, is a 1964 right-hand drive, manual 3.8 Fixed Head Coupe presented in its original dramatic colour combination of Carmen red with contrasting red leather. The supporting Jaguar Heritage Certificate states that this car was dispatched from Browns Lane on the 10th. April, of ‘64 to the supplying dealer, Henlys of Manchester.

This E-Type has been owned by the current owner for some 16 years and is showing an unwarranted odometer reading of 43,950 miles. Invoices in the history file suggest that the car had an engine rebuild in 2006 and we believe it has done very few miles since.

This most desirable of E-Types, is now ready to be enjoyed by its next owner with a fresh MoT test certificate. The Series 1 3.8 Fixed Head Coupe is seen by many as the most attractive E-Type shape, with its svelte silhouette, graceful curves and purity of line. Most of us, at some point, have fantasised about owning an E-Type, a car once described by Enzo Ferrari as “The most beautiful car ever made.” and here, we have an ideal opportunity.

Registration: G644 CPE Chassis Number: ZFFXA20D000079938 Engine Number: 16382 Year of Manufacture: 1989 Estimate (£): 120,000 - 150,000

Produced between 1985 and 1989 - the 328 was the successor to the 308 and available as a coupe (GTB) or a Targa Top (GTS). It featured the transverse V8 from the 308, albeit now in 3.2 form, with 4 valves per cylinder, a five speed gearbox and 275 bhp on tap. This resulted in 0-60mph in 5.5 seconds and a terminal speed of over 166mph. Towards the end of the model’s life, Ferrari made ABS standard and these cars are now the most desirable and collectable versions.

Stored in a Car Carcoon during our vendors’ entire ownership, it has hardly been used during the last decade. It was sent to highly respected Ferrari Specialist, Terry Keys, on the 22-6-2015 and is now being carefully re-commissioned, fully serviced and a new MOT carried out in time for our Sale. We can organise an independent inspection/report of the car from Terry by special arrangement. Please call the office for details.

This car is an original right hand drive 1989 ‘ABS’ car that has only covered an amazing 1,660 miles from new. Finished in traditional Rosso Corsa with Crema Leather upholstery it was purchased by our vendor over 10 years ago from the sale of Mohamed Al-Fayed’s private collection of cars. The former owner of Harrods Department store in Knightsbridge, London, is a well known classic and modern car collector and this car formed part of a significant collection sold by him in the mid2000s.

This model is now recognised by the collector/investor market as a sound future investment. This very low mileage car, with known provenance and history, represents a prime and rare opportunity to capitalise on Ferrari and it’s heritage in a car that still drives well today.

1991 Honda NSX 5speed

The legendary Honda NSX (standing for New Sportscar Experimental) was developed by the Honda Motor Corporation between 1984 and its eventual launch in 1990, with major chassis and suspension input from three times F1 World Champion, Ayrton Senna.

The NSX featured a state of the art 3.0 litre V6 ‘VTEC’ engine (variable valve timing) and an all aluminium monocoque body, encompassing a revolutionary extruded aluminium alloy frame and suspension. This made the car extremely light and extremely strong. Other game changing features included 4 channel ABS brakes, titanium con rods in the engine and later in the model’s life - an electric power steering system. The car was the first real Japanese Supercar, proving itself and quickly establishing respect from its key competitors. Production continued right up until 2009 with only subtle changes made throughout its life.

This particular NSX is an early production right-hand drive car supplied new to Japan, from where it has just returned.

The original toolkit is present as is a complete service history from Japan, which confirms the mileage is warranted by our vendor.

Being an early car and in the original launch specification, it has no power steering. As such it gives more driver feel, just as Ayrton Senna had originally wanted, and these early specification cars are now highly sought after and very collectable. This low mileage car, looking truly stunning in Black with Cream leather upholstery, represents a chance for some exciting motoring combined with great long term potential investment prospects.

This 1968 Ford Mustang Convertible is an exceptionally rare right-hand drive example that is believed to have been converted in period by a Ford main dealership. The car was manufactured in the Edison plant in Metuchen, New Jersey for export, and came off the production line finished in Acapulco Blue, with the more desirable 4-barrel V8 engine, bucket seats and C4 automatic transmission.

The UK V5 document shows the car as being first registered in the UK on the 1st September 1968 to a Mr William Flockhart of Edinburgh with the distinctive registration XLM2G, which is still displayed on the car today. In 1981 the Mustang was sold to its second owner, a Mr Martin Hartshorn of Ealing and then to a Mr Matthew Bracey of Bristol in 1982. Its fourth owner, a Mr Anthony Kear, purchased the vehicle in 1983 and it remained with him until 2009, when it was sold to Mr Timothy Skett of Honiton. The current registered keeper acquired the car in 2010 making a total of only 6 UK owners.

The Porsche 911 (996) GT3 is the spiritual successor to the original ‘73 Carrera RS, and was designed to be lightweight and performance focussed with scant regard to luxury and comfort items that would add to the car’s weight but detract from its performance.

It’s also the basis of the modern day ‘Carrera Cup Car’ which Porsche race worldwide in their own ‘one make’ series, and was produced in sufficient numbers to comply with the FIA homologation requirements necessary for the 911 to compete in the GT3 Class in International Sportscar Racing.

The XK120 was launched in 1948 and was an international sensation, finally putting Jaguar on the world stage and their competition successes would see the beginning of a hugely positive period for the company. The XK150 was the final incarnation of the XK line and appeared in May 1957. A more refined and capable machine than its predecessors, the 150 was easily identifiable by its higher scuttle and door line, wider grille and improved interior space. However, the XK150 retained much of the mechanical layout of the XK140 including the same 3.4 litre DOHC Jaguar straight-six, which developed 180bhp at 5,750rpm. As before with the XK range, standard (with steel wheels) and special equipment models were available, but a bewildering range of models was to evolve. Firstly, in 1958, the ‘S’ model was announced, equipped to ‘special equipment’ specification and with a more powerful engine although still of 3.4 litre capacity. Late in 1959 further options were offered with the introduction of the 3.8 litre engine and the XK150 was available not only in 3.4 litre versions, but two versions (Normal and “S”) of the 3.8 variety.A total of 2,200 XK150 Drophead Coupé models were made, of

1995 Ford Escort RS Cosworth

The Ford Escort RS Cosworth proved a worthy successor to its legendary 1980’s Sierra namesake. Just like the Lancia Integrale and Subaru Impreza, this was a Group A rally car for the road - pure and simple. It was actually underpinned by a shortened version of the Sierra Cosworth RS Cosworth’s platform and powered by the same 2.0-litre turbocharged longitudinally-mounted Cosworth developed engine driving all four wheels. The car was designed and engineered in Boreham, was styled by noted designer Stephen Harper, and ended up being assembled by Karmann in Germany.

At launch in 1994, two models were available, the club-spec standard car at £21,380 and the Lux version, which included electric windows, heated screen, sunroof, and Recaro seats.

Power was up slightly from the Sierra RS Cosworth, at 227bhp, and performance consequently improved. The first 2,500 cars up to May 1994, suffered from turbo lag, but the next 4,500 were improved, thanks to their smaller Garrett T25 Turbo. In 1995, the RS Cosworth was treated to a mild facelift, receiving a new honeycomb grille, restyled bumpers, a more attractive fascia and revised alloy wheels.

In 1964, the Porsche 911 first entered production, the timeless design being a result of the work of Ferdinand ‘Butzi’ Porsche and the company’s joint founder and chief body engineer Erwin Komenda. The 911 soon became a car renowned for its driveability, featuring rack and pinion steering, torsion bar suspension and disc brakes front and rear. Early 911s were powered by a dry-sump, air-cooled, 2-litre, flat-six engine mounted at the rear and mated to a five-speed manual transmission. Over the years 911s developed slowly and in 1969 the engine capacity was increased to 2.2-litres. This unit was offered in three levels of tune, namely: T (125 bhp), E (155 bhp) and S (180 bhp).

This rare 2.4 911T Targa was delivered in 1973 and is a UK righthand drive example, finished in Sepia Brown with matching

1957 Porsche 356 A Coupe

Porsche introduced the 356A at the Frankfurt Motor Show in September 1955 which thoroughly updated their 356 lineup of coupes, cabriolets and speedsters although Reutter remained the coachbuilder. Improving tyre technology enabled more effective suspension settings and higher fuel octanes allowed better performance from the 1600cc engine.

Externally the 356A was only slightly different with wider tyres, a rubber strip below the doors and a curved screen marking the changes. The interior now received a flat-face dashboard, locking glove box and a radio. Other appointments included a headlight flasher, automatic interior lighting and self-cancelling indicators although a steering wheel lock and a clock remained an option.

Offered here is a remarkable example of a Porsche 356A T1, which is in very original condition and features some unique production features. The history file shows that it was imported from the USA in 1997 and since then it has remained part of a large private collection. Originally owned by Mr Jan Hauge of Seattle, Washington State, the car has now been fully registered in UK and an MoT certificate is supplied with the car.

For the 356A purists the complete set of dash knobs in ivory are a joy to behold, even the fuel filler cap has not been converted to the cork gasket. The overall condition is very good with the appearance of a carefully used significant Porsche. The engine is strong and runs cleanly making for brisk performance through the gears. The car has just benefited from a full photographic bare metal respray in the last few months in its original colour. A Porsche Certificate of Authenticity states that the original colour was indeed ‘Meissen Blau’, which is the oldest racing Porsche heritage colour ever produced and the rarest of all 356 colour codes.

The original engine was replaced whilst in the USA, and we suspect a 1600S engine or even a Speedster engine was substituted, judging by the performance and known upgrades in period. Additional features include original 1600 S hubcaps, Blaupunkt radio, full tool kit, original interior and all aluminium trims and door furniture. This little Porsche has to be the most striking 356 we have ever offered for sale. Inspections are more than welcome and we feel this car offers superb value and provides a unique opportunity for any Porsche collector.

There can’t be a single motoring enthusiast anywhere, that is not familiar with the evocative Ford Mustang, and a good proportion of those will recognize the name of the late Carroll Shelby. Chicken Farmer, Flight Instructor, International Racing Driver, inventor of the Cobra and manufacturer of highperformance road cars, his input on a good looking, but slow Hertz Rent-a-Car, the Ford Mustang, changed the language of the muscle-car world.

His high-performance Mustangs were built by Shelby American from 1965 to ‘67, and by Shelby Automotive from 1968 until 1970.

Following years of criticism about the flabby and gutless 3rd. and 4th. developments of the Mustang, Ford bit the bullet and their Special Vehicle Team with Carroll Shelby as a consultant, designed the 5th. generation Mustang. Christened the Ford Shelby Mustang GT500, the new car was launched to universal acclaim at the 2005 New York International Auto Show.

We are pleased to be able to offer this fabulous 700 BHP+, 2008 Ford Mustang GT500 for sale.

1961 Jaguar E-Type Series I Roadster

Registration: 672 XUD Chassis Number: 876086 Engine Number: R2584-9 Year of Manufacture: 1961 Estimate (£): 75,000 - 90,000

The car we’re proud to offer here is a November 1961 car, chassis #876086, delivered new to the USA via Jaguar’s New York agents in left-hand drive. It was repatriated back to the UK and to our vendor in May 1991 whereupon an enthusiastic restoration began.

Some 16 years later, with many fresh nuts and bolts and countless new parts, his restoration was finally finished and our vendors new E-Type was DVLA registered in August 2007.

The result? A fabulous Jaguar E-Type in first rate condition with sympathetic attention to detail and now right-hand drive.

Being a qualified engineer himself he was competent with all aspects of restoration, and being a privateer owner/user he wasn’t restoring to secure a profit margin, which is perhaps the reason the car emits so much charm. It may also explain why it took him some 16 years to complete!..

Regrettably, being 1991 and E-Type values not being what they are today, the decision was made to drop a lower floor into the driver’s foot well to make the driving experience more comfortable. Knowing what we know today, this likely would not have happened, but fear not, for it’s a relatively straightforward task to reverse were one so inclined.

For our vendor, it was the satisfaction of improving an already beautiful car that excited him and sparked the engineer in him.

Once the car was completed to the standard he’d imagined, being an E-Type owner isn’t really for him, and for the last nine years fewer than 1,500miles have been travelled, though, the car is often started and run to temperature.

There is a reasonable amount of information in the history file including invoices for most of the parts that were required for the restoration, the UK V5C, a current MoT and the Jaguar Heritage Certificate which corroborates the matching numbers.

We’ve said it many times before, but at today’s guide price this car certainly demands significant consideration...

Firmly placed in Ferrari’s history as one of their finest big GTs, the 550 Maranello’s combination of its stylish Pininfarina lines and front mounted 12-cylinder engine meant this car had the potential to become an instant classic, following in the footsteps of its forebear, the 365 GTB/4 ‘Daytona’.

With modern styling cues, a 5.5 litre V12 engine producing around 485bhp and a reported top speed of 199mph, the 550 Maranello was a serious motor car. A less frenetic power delivery, the six speed manual box and excellent weight distribution were all factors in the 550 becoming the perfect European Grand Tourer.

2008 Porsche 911 GT2 (997)

The prospect of combining the most powerful turbo engine in their range at the time, with a manual gearbox and mounting them in a 2-wheel drive lightweight 911 was the inspiration for the, rather special, Porsche 911 GT2. At the same time Porsche upgrade and modify the suspension, brakes and engine output whilst lightening and removing interior components to create the ultimate driver’s version of the car at that time. This recipe has been used with the 993, 996 and 997 versions of their iconic 911 model.

This car is the 997 GT2 version of the Porsche 911, introduced in 2008 and produced until 2012. The engine uses twin variable geometry water cooled turbo-chargers producing a serious 523bhp and 500 lbs foot of torque, which leads to a terminal speed in excess of 210mph and a 0-60mph time of just 3.6 seconds!

This 997 911 GT2 was purchased new by an Italian collector in August 2008, prior to moving it on to a couple in Monaco, where it was used by the former wife of motor racing Grandee, John Wilment, until purchased by the current owner last year.

Factory options include the Clubsport pack, half-cage, alcantara seats, harnesses and the paint has been subtly protected with clear film on the wings, doors, bumper and bonnet.

Supplied with UK registration papers, a current MoT, all the service books and manuals, UK Tracker and UK spec headlamps, this Porsche will be coming direct from Reading HQ, where it has been maintained and stored since coming to the UK last year. A fresh service has just been carried out and recent bills in the history file come to around £5,000.

Consequently, this GT2 is on the button and ready to be enjoyed by its next owner.

GT2 models have traditionally held their value exceptionally well, and are regarded as highly collectable amongst Porsche fans worldwide. Silverstone Auctions sold a 997 GT2 RS in May 2015 for £281,250 and in comparison, this GT2, with very similar performance, looks superb value for money.

1966 Shelby Mustang GT-350H

Never has the ‘marriage’ between a car rental company and a manufacturer yielded such fruitful results as it did between Hertz and Shelby with the inception of the Shelby Mustang GT-350H. In a clever marketing move in 1966, Hertz initially ordered 100 models and requested that it be named the GT-350H, ‘H’ standing for Hertz, with a few minor tweaks for their rentals customers. Delivered in Raven Black with Bronze Powder Gold stripes, the order was increased to 200 cars, and by the end of that year 1000 cars were produced in total.

It is believed that 800 or so cars were delivered in the black / gold colour scheme, whilst the remaining 200 were built in Wimbledon White, Sapphire Blue, Ivy Green and Candyapple Red. By the end of ‘66 the Shelby GT-350H was available at over 50 Hertz airport rental locations across the United States, where customers could hire one for the nominal sum of $17 per day. Many of these cars were rented for weekend use on drag strips and race tracks, and hence the term ‘Rent-a-Racer’ was coined.

We are pleased to offer this particular GT-350H bearing chassis number #1555 and presented in the Hertz colours of

Raven Black & Bronze Powder Gold. According to the SAAC Shelby Registry, on which this car features, it was delivered to Hertz via Larsen Ford Inc. on 31st March 1966, and originally featured an automatic gearbox, however it has since been upgraded to a 4-speed manual Toploader unit. Chassis #1555 rides on 14” 10-spoke alloys, a change from the usual Magnum 500 wheels common on most Hertz cars.

After Hertz use, the car was sold to a Lacy Levone of Wilson, North Carolina, followed by another 2 owners in the States.

In 1992 the car was purchased by a Dutch collector and remained with him before ownership passed to another collector in Holland, who used the car for classic regulation rallies such as the Rallye de Paris and the Vogezen Classic.

Thought to have never been restored, although probably painted in its lifetime, this original GT-350H boasts a wonderful patina rarely seen on these cars. With only a small handful residing in the UK, chassis #1555 represents an opportunity to own a slice of American motoring folklore. Verified and authenticated by the Shelby register, this car is not to be missed!

In 1960, Standard Triumph tasked Italian designer Michelotti with restyling its ageing TR3 range, and the product of his fluid pen was the delightful TR4 which entered production in late 1961. This good looking roadster was powered by a torquey 2,138cc four cylinder, twin carb engine mated to an all-synchro, four speed gearbox and was a wonderful mix of British brawn and Italian flair.

After four years of production however, it was decided to develop the TR4 even further and the chassis was redesigned to accept independent rear suspension, in place of the earlier live axle, resulting in more predictable handling and an improved ride. This new model was christened the TR4A and by the time production ceased in 1968, some 28,450 4As had been sold, with the vast majority being exported to the USA. This gleaming red, left-hand drive, 1967 TR4A is one such, having been imported from Oregon, where it was part of a collection of five TR4s, earlier this year. Our vendor tells us that this car has undergone a complete, high quality restoration on what was originally a very solid car. The car is in excellent mechanical condition with all the suspension and brakes having been rebuilt, the gearbox and drivetrain are smooth and quiet and the overhauled engine with its Triumphtune head is crisp, quiet and pulls well.

The sparkling Red paint is a result of a well applied base coat with a clear coat of very high quality. It’s smooth and has good depth and is finished properly even under the bonnet and in the boot. The paint quality certainly exceeds the original factory finish supplied by Triumph and our vendor believes that the paint and bodywork would cost at least £10K to replicate today. The interior has been restored with the same attention to detail with new leather and carpets, the wooden dash is excellent and the entire cabin is well fitted and exudes quality. All the chrome is excellent with the front and rear bumpers having been re-chromed and the grille and lights look factory fresh.

The vehicle has had all import duty paid, has been registered on an age related plate and is MoT’d until June 2016.

1958 Austin Healey 100/6 BN6 Roadster

Introduced in 1956 to replace the Austin-Healey 100 (later known as the 100-4), the 100-6 was a two seat roadster produced by the British Motor Corporation, initially at Longbridge and later at Abingdon, and remained in production until 1959 when it was replaced by the 3000. Over the years, all three models have become known collectively as “The Big Healeys”.

A couple of inches longer than its predecessor, the 100, the new car was fitted with a more powerful straight-six engine (BMC-C series previously fitted to the Austin Westminster) producing 102bhp which in 1957 was improved to 117bhp.

Externally, the car differed by being slightly more streamlined, having a smaller, wider grill, an air scoop on the bonnet and a fixed windscreen. The previously standard overdrive unit was now an option. Performance was quite exciting, for the period, roaring up to 60mph in just over 10 seconds and going on to 104 miles an hour at a time when a Ford Popular would struggle to reach 70mph.

The M3 when launched in 1986 was the first purpose built BMW saloon specifically designed to race. It was a ‘homologation special’ taken to the ultimate extreme with wheelbase and track optimised for racing, a high revving powerful 2.3 litre four cylinder 16 valve engine, a close ratio 5 speed gearbox with a direct drive top gear, purposeful square arches and fully optimised suspension and brakes. Only available in left hand drive and priced at a hefty £26,000 in the day - it was unsurprising that only a very limited number of cars came to the UK. However, they completely dominated on the race track with Touring Car titles claimed Internationally, including the most prestigious UK and German Touring car crowns.

This example of BMW’s E30 M3 was first delivered new to Germany in 1986. It was subsequently purchased by a Japanese collector and was exported in 1988.

The famed Jaguar MkII was voted car of the year when introduced in 1959. With 3 engine options at 2.4, 3.4 and 3.8 litres (the 3.8 being the fastest production saloon in the world at the time), it would form the mainstay of Jaguar’s saloon production until 1967.

Popular with the Police Force because its high top speed, rapid acceleration and reliability made it perfect for the recently opened new motorway system (which coincidentally were the same reasons it was popular with the villains of the day!). It also enjoyed competition success in the early days of the BRSCC driven by many 60’s period racers including Graham Hill and Jack Sears.

1938 Bentley 4 1/4 Litre Coupe by De Villars

Although founded in 1925 in the Parisian suburb of Courbevoie, Carrosserie de Villars was financed by a wealthy American, Jason Gould, who owned numerous businesses and properties in France. Roland de Graffenried de Villars headed the company in its early days, when its main activity was looking after cars owned by Gould and his associates. Perhaps not surprisingly, De Villars favoured American styling, with long wheelbase chassis preferred. Quality marques were the order of the day, with notable De Villars creations appearing on Delage, Hispano-Suiza, Mercedes-Benz, Minerva, Renault and, of course, Bentley chassis. Bodies were made in small numbers, approximately 25 per year, and most were unique, like the one fitted to Bentley chassis number ‘B-8-MR’, which was supplied new to the De Villars coachworks in 1938.

During the 1938 Paris Auto Salon, whilst finished in dark green with green hide, the Bentley was purchased off the stand by a French Army General, who later worked for the French Resistance during the war.

The story of this stunning thirties Bentley continues in postwar USA, when in 1955 the car came into the possession of Robert Denning of New York, who owned the car for a period before selling it to Dominic Cappellis of North Carolina in 1975.

The car stayed with the Cappellis for a long time and was entrusted to John Griffin of Montgomery, Alabama in 1989 for a full restoration to the tune of $50,000 USD.

In 2002 this important, and possibly unique, De Villars bodied Bentley, was repatriated back to the UK by the Real Car Company and has remained in the proud ownership of a handful of Europeans ever since. Acquired by our vendor in 2011, he then decided to instruct Michael Hibberd, the respected Berkshire, Rolls-Royce and Bentley Specialist to completely restore this 4 ¼ Litre Bentley, remove its rather funereal coat of black and paint the car in the very Parisienne shades of Blue and Grey you see now. Iced with glistening chrome the result is a real showstopper, its swoopy curves being reminiscent of Figoni et Falaschi, a few styling cues from Detroit and a boot that is pure Bentley. The interior is an irreverent combination of Bentley controls and instruments and Cocktail Lounge seating and fabrics. Trying to photograph the car in a quiet London Mews became a two hour job as we discussed the car and its history with many a passer-by.

It seems that even some 75 years after it was created, this Bentley is able to catch the imagination of even the most passive motor enthusiast.

As impressive as the result is from the kerb, the same can be said for the underside and the structural integrity of the car which appears sound. The car runs beautifully and drives as you would expect a pre-war Bentley to drive. Everything is there, even a properly stocked boot-mounted tool kit.

1938 Bentley 4 1/4 Litre Coupe by De Villars

The history file is bulging with early correspondence between past owners, Bentley clubs, historians, specialists and the like.

There are even some charming black and white pictures of the car on display at the Paris Salon in 1938. Potential purchasers are welcome to have a good look at this car’s history.

As the only known surviving De Villars bodied Bentley, this is a serious car. A wonderful combination of British engineering, French Carrosserie and a little American pazaz.

1957 Lotus XI Series I Le Mans

We are pleased to offer this fabulous looking Lotus Eleven Series I, known by its original chassis number #384 and importantly retaining its original chassis plate. From a private collection of actively raced historic Lotus cars by our vendor, this car has been well maintained and used in his care and is one of the more desirable Series 1 models - the Le Mans Sports Racer In 1991 the Chairman of the Lotus Historic Register, Mr Malcolm Rickets, acquired the car and brought chassis #384 back to UK shores, where is was to undergo a rebuild as a Le Mans model to full race specification. At this time, an MG gearbox was married to a 1,500cc Coventry Climax engine, whilst retaining the original aluminium bodywork and adding a removable Le Mans head-fairing for racing.

Our vendor purchased the car from Malcolm in 2009 and has had the original registration ‘UNM 909’ re-instated by DVLA so that it is, once again, proudly bearing this on its bonnet. As with his other historic Lotus cars, the present owner entrusted the car preparation to marque race specialists, John Danby Racing, and has campaigned the car successfully in many VSCC and other race events. Despite, by his own admissions being “well past his sell-by date”, our vendor has frequently caused considerable embarrassment to much larger and more expensive machinery by regularly finishing well up the order!

The car is currently in full race trim and fitted with a ‘top of the shop’ Glyn Peacock Coventry Climax FWB 1490cc with all of the best available parts assembled on to a “New” FWB block.

This gave a remarkable 124 bhp on the rolling road which equates to around 145-150hp at the flywheel. This engine has done less than 1 hours work, finishing well to the front at a recent televised Silverstone VSCC 40-minute Spring Start race.

The passenger seat is present, but not currently fitted and spare front & rear wheels are included in the sale.

The new owner of this car will have various options which might include a return once again to the circuit, sprints, hill climbs, historic rallying or simply enjoy the Lotus as a fast road car at the weekends. If the new owners do plan to take it racing they would be well advised to make sure that the car complies with current MSA and FIA regulations and should also satisfy themselves that all safety equipment complies, and is in date if required.

Bearing its original registration, “UNM 909”, this car is offered for sale in excellent competitive race trim and carries a delightful 25 year race patina on its original dark BRG body panels. With its superb history file containing many period shots of the car, old FIA and MSA papers, comprehensive receipts, race results and provenance, this well fettled car is once again ready to be used competitively, as was always intended by Mr Chapman.

1968 Ford Mustang GT/CS

First released in 1964 the iconic Ford Mustang created a storm when it hit the streets and it still does to this day. Ford wanted to make the Mustang affordable and therefore it needed to share much of it’s engineering with an existing Ford product.

They decided to base the Mustang on the smallest US Ford at the time, the Falcon.

The Mustang was initially offered as either a ‘notchback’ coupe or convertible. It shared its front double-wishbone/coil spring and leaf spring rear suspension with the Falcon. Compared to the Falcon its cockpit sat further back on the chassis, resulting in a longer front end and shorter rear design, and it is those proportions and details, like the running horse in the grill, the cut away side panel and the three section rear lights that have resulted in the Mustang enjoying iconic status.

Offered here from a private collection is a beautiful GT/CS, finished in red with a tan interior and black vinyl roof. The car was subject to a full nut & bolt ‘rotisserie’ restoration in the US around 2005, and still looks delightful now showing no signs of ageing with the underside of the car presenting impeccably. A previous owner in the States, a Mr Andrew Salemi of Sycamore Illinois, won the 2006 ‘Carl F Benz Trophy’ at the Geneva

Concours D’Elegance, Illinois. Mr Salemi kept the car in a temperature and humidity controlled Carcoon, hence why it always remained in A1 condition.

Upon purchase of the car in 2013, our vendor ‘ran with the baton’ and entered the car into the Mustang Owners Club of Great Britain concours at Brand Hatch winning his class in the 1967-68 category. In the summer of 2014 the car was again entered into the club’s concours and became the Master Class & Overall Winner at Silverstone, confirming its pedigree.

Always one to retain originality, our vendor has replaced the battery with a correct replacement shipped from USA and has fitted a new radiator and ‘transverse muffler’ supplied by the Mustang Workshop in Hook.

We always champion ‘best of breed’ cars here at Silverstone Auctions, and this Mustang GT/CS certainly fits that bill. This car is thought to be the only GT/CS in the UK and with an MoT until September ‘15 and an accompanying history file documenting the restoration photographically this GT/CS is ready to be shown this summer and win its next trophy!

For 1937, legendary General Motors stylist Harly Earl revisited the Art Deco styling cues of the the Buick range with a divided grill featuring horizontal bars, gracefully streamlined headlamp surrounds, and bumpers with squared-off ends.Using a model name from a decade earlier, the Opera Coupe, popular with mobsters and socialites alike, his swoopy and decadent 1937 model was aimed at, pretty much, the same audience.

In addition to the US built Buicks, luxury models were also built at GM’s Canadian McLaughlin factory, predominantly for export. They were so stylish and had such presence that they became the chosen transport for many celebrities of the day including the recently abdicated Edward VIII and American divorcee Wallis Simpson.

The stunning example offered here is the two door Opera Coupe with the opposing “opera” rear seats, and is the epitome of Earl’s extravagant deco styling and the known build quality of McLaughlin. Only some three hundred or so models were produced and it’s thought that only three remain today. It was a stylish and technically innovative car with light controls and good power from its straight eight engine. This Buick has been subject to a very exacting quality restoration to concours standard. We believe that there cannot be a better example anywhere and indeed very few restorations achieve this level.

It comes with its NOVA application number in readiness for its UK registration. At today’s guide price it looks outstanding value for such a stylish coupe.

Does the E-Type Roadster need a general introduction?

Ever since Enzo Ferrari famously described it as ‘The most beautiful car in the world.’ when launched, we think you may well already be getting the drift. Following on from the highly acclaimed series 1, the series II was introduced in 1968 and only available as a 4.2, 6 cylinder Roadster or a 2 plus 2 Coupe. Refined in all key areas including brakes, steering and handling - it is now widely regarded as the best driving E-Type of them all.

This particular series II E-Type Roadster 4.2 returned from the United States of America in 2006 and then went on to receive a nut and bolt restoration in 2011 by our vendor. During this comprehensive process, the car was swopped from left to right hand drive and the twin Stombergs changed to triple SU’s to fully meet the original UK specification and power output.

1998 Porsche 993 Turbo S ‘The Last Waltz’

Take your Partner for the Last Waltz A very, very special Porsche 1998 was to prove a very significant year for Porsche AG in a number of ways.

Manufacture of their 911-993 was coming to an end in March, and the production lines for the new, water cooled 996 had just started to roll. The Tony Hatter penned, 993 had proved immensely popular with just over 68,000 of them finding homes. The fact that it was to be the last air cooled 911 didn’t seem to register until later in the year when the world’s motoring press started to pan the 996, not because it was a bad car, but because it looked a bit different, and it wasn’t air cooled and it handled so well anyone could drive it, and it didn’t make the right noise and well, you know, it just wasn’t a 911. The 996, as we know went on to become the most popular Porsche ever, but 1998 will be remembered by the Marketing and Image Department as a very difficult year.

Also in 1998, June the 10th was the date that marked the company’s official 50th. Birthday and preparations were taking place all over the world to celebrate this forthcoming event.

These preparations were tinged with sadness however, when with just 74 days until the anniversary, Ferdinand Anton Ernst Porsche (Ferry) passed away on March the 27th. He had taken the reins of Porsche when his father died in 1951 and had been

chairman until his retirement in 1989 but was still seen as the Father Figure at Porsche.

At some point in the Spring of 1998, the decision was taken to take (we believe) twenty 993s and create something really, really special.

These cars were removed from the production line and hand built as part of the Exclusive Programme. They were 993, 4 wheel drive, turbos with the 450ps M64/60 engines and a 6 speed gearbox. We understand that they had a number of other differences from existing models in the range and we hope to be able to clarify that soon. We believe that all the cars were painted Iris Blue with colour coded Wheels and Calipers, the interior is blue and the instrument dials are blue as are the air vents. They all had an aluminium Plaque on the dashboard which reads; In memorial Prof Ferry Porsche.

“Wahr sind nur die Erinnerungen, die wir mit uns tragen: die Traume, die wir spinnen, und die Sehnsuchte, die uns treiben.

Damit wollen wir uns bescheiden.”

These plaques are obviously in memory of Ferry Porsche who had recently passed away. The wording appears to be a quote from a German 1940’s movie called “Die Feuerzangenbowle” and the wording translates as “Real are only those memories

we carry with us; the dreams we spin and the longing that drives us. Let us be content” We believe the fabulous Porsche we are selling today, is one of those 20. Despite having searched long and hard we cannot find another that has come to market. This LHD, 993 has recently arrived from Japan and has an odometer reading of 10,600kms with service records to verify.

It’s fully colour coded in Iris Blue as described above. Decals on the window glass state “50 Jahre Porsche” in reference to the June the 10th, fiftieth anniversary and further graphics read (in English) “The Last Waltz - 993 Turbo” in a sweeping design that also shows the Porsche badge, a couple in evening dress and the figure”98”.

The sill plates are in brushed aluminium and say “THE LAST WALTZ” in English.

There is an Electronic Cut Off in the boot which we understand was only fitted to RS, GT2 and Speedster models.

We believe this to be a very, very rare Porsche and a bit of a “Holy Grail” amongst 911s. Marque specialists Autofarm have confirmed that they are happy to go through the car and find out as much as they can about its history. Priced to sell, you may never find another one.

In 1961, the MGA received an updated 1622cc engine, alongside a higher ratio 4:1 rear axle, and front disk brakes paired with the original rear drum brakes. This created the 1600 MKII, boasting a more relaxed high speed driving experience and a top speed of 105mph (Road and Track magazine). Visual changes included an inset grill and Mini tail lamps in both the roadster and coupe models. The Mk.II was produced between 1960-1962 so production numbers were lower than earlier Marks.

1994 Porsche 911 C2 Coupe

Often cited by enthusiasts as “the last real Porsche” the 993 straddles the bridge between pure high performance driving thrills, visceral dynamics, and appealing design-led solutions to emissions and safety requirements. No previous 911 variant had such high speed cornering ability and stability aided by the use of a widened track and all alloy rear suspension.

The six-speed manual gearbox not only surpassed the previous four and five-speed gearboxes in usability, but most commentators also found it to be quicker reacting and a smoother gear change, in turn allowing full concentration to be employed on driving quickly rather than concentrating on changing gear.

This left-hand drive, C2 993 Tiptronic S was manufactured at the beginning of the 993 production line and was sold new to Japan. Most unusually for a Japanese car, this Porsche has an extensive stamped service history and even features stickers on the air filter noting each service interval.

Of all the classic British post-war roadsters produced, no other car is quite as distinctive and easily recognized as a Morgan and particularly the 4/4 with its, nearly, eighty years of presence on our roads. The 4/4 name indicated that this model had 4 wheels and 4 cylinders and the general appearance of the car hasn’t altered much in all those years.

With a simple and strong drive train, agile handling and a truly visceral, sporting ride quality, driving a well-sorted Morgan is regularly grin (and occasionally grimace) inducing. Its timeless styling never fails to turn heads and generate appreciation, strange when you think they have been around forever, and they are perennial favorites at shows and touring events.

as good underneath as it is on top. The brightwork, chrome wire wheels and chromed luggage rack are in great shape and the condition of the glass and rubber is excellent. Having travelled less than 150 kms. since its restoration, and never been used in the rain, the soft-top and frame, the full tonneau cover and side panels are all like new. Everything works as it should, including all of the original white faced instruments, the car’s headlamps and the bumper-mounted Lucas running lamp. The engine and rebuilt gearbox will also be found to be in exceptional order. Owners of older Morgans can take comfort from the fact that the Malvern factory are as busy as ever turning out spares for their loyal 4/4 enthusiasts.

This 1968 Morgan 4/4 is a rare and desirable example that has just been subject to a meticulous professional restoration. In 2014 the car competed in, and achieved trophy status, at the Concours d’Elegance at Peles Castle, Romania.

If you’ve been looking for an honest, mechanically excellent and beautifully presented Morgan 4/4, this car deserves your serious attention. This car has all the right things going for it; a beautiful body-off restoration, is well maintained, has strong original mechanicals, and is in a fantastic color combination.

1962 Mercedes-Benz 190 SL

Built alongside and sharing many of the iconic styling features of the legendary 300SL Roadster, the Mercedes 190SL combined superlative build quality with understated styling and a not insignificant, 104 BHP from the 1.9 litre four stroke engine. An instant hit, the three-pronged star sparkled among the gloom of post-war austerity. The 1955 launch of the 190SL, cemented Mercedes Benz’s reputation as the car manufacture for those who wanted elegance, build quality and a good turn of speed. Its hugely successful production ran to 25,881 cars from 1955 until 1963, mainly in left-hand drive form, with most going to the North American market. Understandably few were made in right-hand drive and according to records, the total number of cars consigned for the British market stood at 562, with only 53 of these arriving here in 1962.

The car we have the honour of selling today, has the distinction of being one of those 53 British cars sold in righthand drive form. Delivered to its first registered keeper, Mr John Mantell, on the 18th May 1962, the vehicle was used sparingly and thereafter stored until its sale in 2007 with an odometer reading of circa 12,000 miles.

restoration and replacement of various service items was undertaken, whilst still retaining as many original mechanical components as possible. As might be expected from such a low mileage example, ‘23 CWF’ is a fully matching numbers car with engine, transmission, front and rear axles and even the steering box corresponding with the original build sheet obtained from Mercedes-Benz Heritage, which along with photos of all number stamped components can be found in the history file. Externally the car was treated to a professional and immaculate bare metal re-spray in the original paint code ‘050’ white, whilst the bright work was re-polished to an exquisitely deep shine.

The interior is beautifully patinated and original, and the condition is incredible. The original Becker Europa radio works, all the dials appear to show correct readings and the original tool kit is also supplied with the car. The engine idles beautifully on its twin Solex carburettors and behaves impeccably in traffic. Rarely does a car that has been sympathetically restored, retaining so many original mechanical components perform so effortlessly on the road.

The car will be presented at auction freshly serviced and with an MOT valid to March 2016.

1957 Heinkel 153

When aircraft designer Ernst Heinkel saw the Iso Isetta , he decided that he could design one better, using aircraft principles and making it lighter yet faster with a smaller engine.

He did just that with the Kabine 150, the quintessential “bubble car” with its large window area and longer, sleeker lines, that were a cross between an Isetta and a Messerschmitt.

Production began in March 1956 with the Kabine Model 150, using the 174 cc 9.2 hp single-cylinder, four-stroke engine that powered the Heinkel Tourist scooter. In October 1956, Heinkel introduced the Kabine Model 153 (with three wheels) and the Kabine Model 154 (four wheels), both with 204 cc engines.The Kabine had a steel unit body and access to the interior was by an opening front, but in order not to infringe Iso Rivolta’s patent used on the Isetta, the steering wheel did not move with the door. However, it did feature a reverse gear, unlike some other bubble cars. The fabric sun roof served as an emergency escape hatch should the sole door in front of you become

Supplied with Italian documents and a current UK V5 registration document, this 911S was a member of the Automobile Club D’Italia and there is still a metal plate on the rear parcel shelf that proudly displays the Italian history of this vehicle.

911S and SWB prices are certainly on the march and show no signs of slowing down. Buyers should be aware that whilst the speedo and rev counter are working, the odometer is currently not working.

1979 Ferrari 308 GTS

Enzo Ferrari’s son, Alfredino “Dino” Ferrari, had a promising career as an engineer and businessman and was poised to take over his father’s motoring empire, continuing the Ferrari legacy through the next generation. Dino gained experience working alongside some of the greatest engineers in history, such as Vittorio Jano. He is credited with the concept of the big-bore 4-cylinder 750 Monza and convincing his father of the merits of a compact V6. Sadly, he became ill and passed away at the age of twenty-four but his legacy lived on in the form of the Dino 246GT and the unbroken line of mid-engined V8 cars that continue today. Dino’s 2.4 litre twin-overhead cam V6 was a jewel of an engine. It was fitted to the first mid-engine regular production Ferrari and became the lifeblood of the brand for the next 45 years.

The successor to the Dino, the mighty 308, gained two cylinders and earned a Ferrari badge. The 308 GTB/GTS became the company’s most successful model to date, selling more than 12,000 examples over a 10 year production span. As the volume leader for so many years, the 308 was often toward the bottom of the collectability scale and many

suffered from poor maintenance. Properly maintained 308s are now highly sought-after and the model is enjoying a welldeserved and dramatic rise in collectability.

This left-hand drive 1979 model is an early steel-bodied 308 that features the desirable carburettor engine setup. It is finished in Rosso Corsa with tan leather; a combination that is ideally suited to the Pininfarina-designed body. The overall condition is very pleasing and the car presents well, in allround good condition. The paint and body are straight, clean and tidy attesting to its mileage of 44,000 miles on the clock.

Less than 200 kilometres have been travelled since this example had a large service, that included new cambelts and carb set up. Described as driving very well indeed, this 308 is an ideal Ferrari to enjoy this summer and offers super value relative to other 308s on the market. A removable roof panel allows that ‘wind in the hair’ feeling and direct steering balanced mid-engine handling, combined with that frenetic V8 sucking air and fuel through a quartet of Weber carburettors over your shoulder, makes this 308 GTS a thrill at any speed.

As its accompanying Heritage Certificate confirms, this particular TR4A is an original UK market car that has had seven owners to date, the sixth of whom kept it for 28 years. When acquired in June 2014 it was in rather a sorry state, and being a retired race engineer, the then owner decided to treat it to a total nut and bolt restoration resulting in the magnificent specimen you see today. Because the original chassis is prone to rot dangerously around the rear suspension, a brand new chassis was sourced from CTM Engineering at a cost of some £3,000 which formed the starting point for this meticulous rebuild with some £20,000 eventually spent on parts alone.

All this expenditure is itemised in the history file along with a photographic record of the build process.

The red bodywork is superb and has been thoroughly protected with rust proofing and anti-stone chip coatings to keep it looking good for years to come. New chrome work and a fabulous Surrey top (with hard and soft panels for the centre section) complete the dazzling exterior, while the interior has been retrimmed to better than new with a glossy walnut dash, brown carpets, retrimmed beige leather seats and a chunky wood rim sports steering wheel.

The engine has been stripped and reconditioned as required, as has the gearbox and overdrive unit and a new clutch fitted.

Sensible upgrades include a RevoTec electric cooling fan, uprated water pump, thin belt conversion, an alloy front pulley and damper, electric fuel pump, K&N filters and an alloy rocker cover. A peek into the engine bay suggests that a huge amount of time has been spent on detailing, as everything under the bonnet gleams.

The braking system is completely new throughout and gains servo assistance, while the all new suspension includes adjustable Gaz shock absorbers all round. A new steering rack and wiring loom have also been fitted along with a stainless steel exhaust system, new wire wheels and five new tyres.

With a valid MOT until mid-February 2016, this car is said to drive beautifully with notably light and direct steering, excellent oil pressure and temperature and performs well all round. Undoubtedly, this is one the best TR4As one is ever likely to see and must surely be as good an example of this lovely little Triumph as you could realistically hope to find.

Ready to be enjoyed and cherished as it deserves...

Pilgrim Sumo Cobra MK3

Pilgrim cars were founded originally in 1985 in Brighton, West Sussex, and began manufacturing a range of classic car reincarnations. From 1987, the Sumo, based on the profile of the iconic AC Cobra, was added to the range.The complex curves of the original Cobra have proven difficult to replicate, but it was generally considered that Pilgrim had done a great job with the Sumo. Since then more than 3500 have been built with a variety of power units and sold to enthusiasts around the world.

The interior is trimmed in cream leather with contrasting black carpets and door cards and weather protection is provided by a well-fitted vinyl soft top and frame. Motive power is provided by the ubiquitous Rover V8 3.5ltr petrol engine mated to a 4-speed manual gearbox, giving more than adequate performance for an enthusiastic driver.

Registered on 27th October 1989 and having had only one owner from new, this Jaguar XJS is a rare find indeed. Unique is a word frequently misused but in this case it fits, as we can’t believe there can be too many 26 year old XJS in this condition having covered less than 3,000 miles from new!

Originally supplied by Riders Jaguar of Truro and very rarely used up until 2001, it has since stored as part of a private collection of mainly British vehicles. This Jaguar has covered a mere 2743 miles from new which equates to just over 100 miles a year. Never used in the wet the underside of the car appears as good as when it left the factory. Finished in a striking metallic light blue with a cream leather interior, the whole car looks and feels as though it has just left Riders’ showroom, and as you open the door even retains some of that special new car smell!

The spare wheel has never been used and the car comes complete with its comprehensive tool kit which we doubt has ever seen the light of day. Amazingly the original Jaguar XJS welcoming audio tape is still present in the glovebox ready to be slotted into the radio cassette and explain to new owners how to get the best from their purchase of, what would have been at the time, one of the most prestigious cars on the market.

All the standard alloy wheels and tyres are in excellent condition and the car drives as it should.

After many years in the doldrums prices of really good examples of the XJS have started to increase rapidly recently, and if you have always wanted to own one, this is as close as you are going to get to finding a new one.

1968 Jaguar E-Type 4.2 SII Roadster

Introduced in May 1961, the Jaguar E-type was a sensation with great looks and performance unrivaled at the price.

Often heralded as the most beautiful car of all time Jaguar, not surprisingly, made no significant model changes till the introduction of the 4.2 engine in October 1964.and the introduction of the Series II in 1968. Additionally they incorporated an all syncromesh gearbox, increased legroom and better torque from the new capacity engine. This resulted in the best E-type and now Grand Tourer to match the best being produced by Jaguars rivals. The E-type still continued to hammer the opposition on pricing and reliable performance.

Offered here is a beautifully restored Jaguar E-type produced on 23 August 1968 and destined for Jaguar Cars New York, and its first owner Rosemary Rucchio. It returned to the UK in October 2014 and has been subject to an exacting restoration by our vendor, a highly regarded and experienced bodywork specialist. It was a very original and well preserved

example and all the factory panels were retained. When the body was stripped to the tub it was decided to change the configuration to European specification and convert to right hand drive, a comparatively easy exercise at this stage.

The fully rebuilt engine was mated to triple SU carburettors making it a UK spec car. It was painted in its original and one of the best colours for an E-type, Daimler Silver Grey. The interior and hood are the only deviation from the original black but combine to give a very special presence and a ‘nod’ to a contemporary look. All the other components have either been replaced or rebuilt. The brightwork has all been rechromed. It comes complete with tools and a hide hammer, UK registration, a full MOT and a Heritage Certificate.

Restored Jaguar E-types at this guide represent great value for a car with such a sense of occasion.

This car has covered a nominal 31,000 miles since new and comes to us with a lengthy service history of, white-gloved, work carried out by Rolls Royce main agents. When new, the car cost a vast amount of money and was ordered for the Sultan of Brunei along with 5 others.

The car is finished externally in unmarked “King of Denmark” blue and all the brightwork etc., needless to say, is perfect.

From the service records we can tell that the car has been fastidiously maintained and four new tyres have recently been fitted.

The interior is opulence in itself. The rear has two sumptuous heated reclining seats and also an additional jump seat for a body guard, cocktail waitress or the Mother-in-Law depending upon your preference. A small fitted bar is located in the bulkhead along with a TV, video and, naturally, a state of the art sound system with a 10xcd changer. Within the centre arm rest is a cellular phone base unit allowing one to rule one’s kingdom from a distance. Behind the seat divide is a refrigerator for cooling champagne and canapes.

The interior leather is Silverstone Grey piped in blue and all in fine order. Several tree’s worth of highly figured Burr Walnut adorn every imaginable surface and this is in perfect mirror polished condition. The superb Wilton carpets are dark blue and edge bound in grey. An electric division can be operated from the front and rear, whilst the privacy blind may only be operated from the rear. Likewise the rear sunroof is equipped with an electric privacy blind.

Under the bonnet the car is as clean as would be expected from a car that has had such care lavished upon it and with just 31K miles, the car drives, looks, smells and is indeed close to perfect.

This vehicle is well suited to chauffeur driven private hire, as a wedding car, could possibly be used as a mobile office but is ideally suited to its primary function, just showing off. Really special cars of this nature are very, very rare due to the huge initial purchase price and are not often available.

1981 Porsche 924 Carrera GT

This 924 right-hand drive Carrera GT was originally delivered to Dick Lovett, Swindon in April 1981 and stored by them until August of that year in order to receive an ‘X’ registration. A copy of the original bill of sale and various correspondence document an early history between the first owner and supplying UK dealer. The car was maintained by Dick Lovett during its early life and was sold by them in 1983, 1988, 1990 and then in 1996 to the current owner. During his ownership, this Carrera GT has been maintained by specialists such as noted Porsche experts Paragon Porsche in Kent. The original service book is full of stamps and an almost complete set of MoT certificates substantiate a total mileage of just over 75,000 miles from new. There is a substantial folder of bills and receipts that document a car that has clearly been maintained to a high standard.

The current owner describes the paintwork as: “Excellent for its age, with very, very light surface scratching due to poor polishing by previous owner in places. There is some very light crazing on the front wings where the polyurethane has flexed.

The paintwork is believed to be all original except for the

driver’s door which had a minor repair approximately 20 years ago.” The interior is presented in very impressive condition with no tears or scratches to the fabric or leather. The engine is described as: “Not concours but generally clean with agerelated surface corrosion to some parts. It runs beautifully and is believed to be in very good condition internally.” In 2000, the car had a top-end rebuild by Porsche Bournemouth and it also had a new head gasket in 2012. It has seen limited miles in the past decade but has been serviced annually regardless. The cam belt was last changed in 2008 at a 73,371 by Paragon.

Evidently, this 924 Carrera has been maintained to a high mechanical standard over the years and is an honest example of an extremely rare Porsche. Only 75 examples were ever made for the UK market and these delightful driver’s cars are seemingly undervalued given their desirable status as the ultimate 924. A true homologated road-special, we love the Carrera GT and welcome inspections on this unmolested example.

In 1999, Ferrari knew it was time to replace their much loved 355. The 360 was introduced to critical acclaim and immediately set a new benchmark for supercar styling and performance. The 360 Modena design was revolutionary making extensive use of lightweight materials throughout.

The 360’s construction resulted in a much lighter car along with increased rigidity. Ferrari also paid particular attention to improving the under body aerodynamics and thus the 360 boasts a completely flat bottom with two prominent rear diffusers. The 360’s engine produced a staggering 400bhp from just 3586cc, this resulted in a 0-60 time of just 4.4 seconds and a top speed of 186mph. Pininfarina produced an exceptionally clean profile without the need for additional wings, flares or blisters. One of the other striking features is the large glass rear screen that proudly displays the engine in all its glory. Introduced at the Geneva Show in March 1999 the 360 Modena, not unsurprisingly, swelled Ferraris order books and within weeks there was a two-year waiting list.

The Ferrari F355 is a modern classic, so beautiful, so well engineered and so well received that it marked the beginning of the end of the old guard ‘Ferraristi’ philosophy that the only “real” Ferraris were ones with 12 cylinder engines.

The Cooper S MKII is the rarest of all of the Mini Coopers with a production run of 6,300 compared to 19,000 MKI’s.

This fine example was manufactured on the 4th of July, 1968, was dispatched from the factory on the 8th of July and was subsequently sold by Mann Egerton of Wimbledon. Our vendor, who is a retired mechanical engineer, informs us that he purchased the car in May of 2014 in a dismantled state, the previous owner had stripped the car down in 1999 with the intention of doing a complete restoration however it was never completed. It transpired that the bodyshell had previously been repaired in all the usual places using incorrect parts and the welding had been done to a very poor standard thus it was decided to embark on a comprehensive nut and bolt restoration.

The bodyshell was completely stripped back and the following items replaced: Full floor, boot floor, heel board, O/S inner wing, both A posts inner and outer panels to both sides, both front wings, front panel, both front doors, rear valence and the scuttle panel. Importantly, all the panels replaced were either genuine Heritage or M machined parts and the shell was rebuilt on an approved jig to ensure excellent panel gaps.

The shell was then repainted in its original colour of Snowberry White with a contrasting Black roof.

were replaced. The gearbox was stripped and the baulk rings were replaced along with new gaskets and oil seals.

The entire braking system was replaced with all new parts including new discs and callipers to the front and new drums to the rear. The vehicles hydrolastic suspension system has all new piping along with knuckle joints and is reported to be in excellent condition. Both subframes were completely stripped and found to be in very good order and as such were powder coated for future long life protection. Both rear radius arms have been replaced as have both front wheel bearings.

As can be seen, the depth of restoration has been substantial and from our past experience Mini Coopers such as this do not remain unsold for very long, so if you are looking for a stunning example with great investment prospects, then this is the one for you. Sold with a fresh MOT, Swansea V5C, Heritage Certificate, photographs and other paperwork this really is a turn-key completed project.

The exterior is unmarked apart from a few minor stone chips at the front, and the windscreen appears to have the original Mercedes-Benz factory stickers. The seats have the patina of regular but careful use, with some rubbing to the leather of the seat bolsters, a common issue with all cars of this type featuring supportive seats.

These cars tend to change hands privately, auction records are scarce, and a number of the original 500 may not have survived enthusiastic driving and spins round the Nurburgring, so they are becoming harder to find. With values of its rival, the BMW E30 M3 Evolution II reaching greater heights at every sale and even the Evo II’s little sister, the 190 Cosworth breaking the £50,000 level, we feel the guide price is more than reasonable in this heightened market for 1990s performance saloon cars.

1976 Porsche 930 Turbo

The Porsche 930 Turbo was a genuine ‘Supercar’ that defined the seventies and eighties. It was one of the fastest production cars available at the time. It was first seen at the 1973 Paris Auto Show and full production commenced two years later. The basic engine underpinnings came from the Carrera 2.7RS which was increased to 3.0Litres and, of course, turbocharged with technology gained from Porsche’s 917/30 Can-Am program. The bodywork received special treatment to produce one of the most aggressive looking Porsches ever made with its wide arches and impressive rear whale-tail. The brakes came directly from the Porsche 917 race car. The final evolution of the 930 Turbo saw the engine capacity increased to 3299cc, with improved upgrades on the intercooler and fitment of the G50 transmission. By 1989, the final year of production, the power had risen to 330bhp.

Telephone bidding** Should you be unable to attend the auction on sale day, telephone bidding will still allow you to bid live.

It is important that you provide us with alternative contact numbers to ensure that we are able to contact you on the day. You may wish to leave a commission bid to be used in the event that

www.silverstoneauctions.com

we are unable to contact you. This however is entirely optional. Note that we do not operate telephone bids for lots with a low estimate value below £500.

Commission bidding** If you think you might not be contactable on the day of the sale, you may leave with us a commission bid. To submit a commission bid, please complete our Telephone/Commission Bidder Registration form* indicating, for each lot you wish to bid on, the maximum amount you are willing to bid up to (excluding commission and VAT). We will execute your bid as low as possible on your behalf.

Buying Guide

The golden rule for anyone hoping to buy at auction is to thoroughly inspect the lot you are interested in before bidding, as no warranty or guarantee is given with anything that is sold. For this reason the auction centre is open for viewing prior to each Auction (please check times). All bids are final and irrevocable.

Bidder Registration You can bid at auction either in person by attending the sale, by telephone, by leaving a commission bid or live online. To meet current legislative requirements, you will need to provide proof of identification in the form of a passport or drivers licence and a recent utility bill as proof of address.

When submitting forms in absentia, please ensure they reach us no later than 48 hours before the auction is due to take place.

How fast will the auctioneer go?

The auctioneer will aim to sell approximately 90 lots of automobilia and lifestyle per hour and 20 vehicles per hour.

* Please note we are unable to accept absentee or telephone commission bids by fax within 48 hours of sale. Please email to: enquiries@silverstoneauctions.com ** There is no charge for the telephone and commission bidding service.

Catalogues Catalogues can be purchased online or by contacting our catalogue subscription department +44 (0)1926 691141. Please ensure that you bring your catalogue to the sale as entry is by catalogue only.

Whilst your Silverstone Auctions Catalogue admits two persons to the viewing day(s) and the sale day please refer to any specific Admission tickets that maybe required to enter the Event. Further copies of the catalogue can be purchased at the Auction.

Warranties All lots are sold on an ‘as seen’ basis. You may wish to bring a competent mechanic with you to inspect any Motor Vehicles on your behalf. The catalogue will describe the lots to the best of our ability on information supplied. You should, however, satisfy yourself as to the condition, age, and integrity of any lot prior to bidding as no warranties whatsoever are given in relation to any lot. Once the auctioneer drops the hammer a contract is made and you are obligated to proceed with the purchase. It is therefore vital that you are satisfied with the condition of the lot you intend to bid upon before doing so.

Charges Like the vast majority of auctioneers, Silverstone Auctions Limited charge what is known as a buyer’s premium. Our standard buyer’s premium charges are 12.5% of the hammer price on motor vehicles (cars and motorcycles) and 17.5% of the hammer price for automobila and lifestyle items. Buyer’s premium is subject to VAT at the prevailing rate on the day of the auction.
