1964 Jaguar MKX 3.8 AutomaticMake: JaguarModel: MKXYear: 1964Mileage: 5890VIN: 307362BWConfiguration: Right Hand DriveRegistration: ABC757BTransmission: automaticThis example of Jaguar's huge and powerful luxury leviathan of the 1960s was registered in March 1964. It is finished in green with matching green leather interior. The current V5C lists five former keepers, and there are a few past V5 documents included in the history file as well. This also has a selection of MoTs from 2017 back to 1983, various bills from the 1970s onwards, and a handful of tax discs. Documents dating from the car's purchase include the Jaguar manufacturer's warranty, Radiomobile radio guarantee and service book - or 'periodic maintenance vouchers' booklet, as Jaguar liked to refer to it. There are 2002 and 2003 receipts from Jaguar specialist Robinson & Godwin Classics of Grimsby totalling £5000 for an engine and gearbox overhaul and some further renovation work, although little detail is given. This would have been around the 62,000-mile mark. The current odometer reading is 05891; referring to the history suggests this is actually 105,891. Overall condition is good, although there is some tarnishing apparent on the chrome and some bubbles apparent in areas on the paint. The seats have some surface cracks and the dashboard and door capping wood has some deterioration in places, but is generally surviving well. The rear window weatherstrip has started to break up around the back parcel shelf. PLEASE SEE BELOW FOR VIDEO PRODUCED 28TH SEPTEMBER BY ACA OF THIS CAR.

1994 Range Rover Vogue LSE Lloyd Supercharged Make: Land RoverModel: Range Rover LSEYear: 1994Mileage: 82000VIN: SALLHBM33MA649247Configuration: Right Hand DriveRegistration: L56BDGTransmission: automatic This metallic blue Range Rover LSE automatic was registered in March 1994 but from the late-1990s onwards, it seems the then owner became almost obsessed with ways of upgrading and improving the vehicle. In 1998, a supercharger was added to the V8 engine, although judging by correspondence in the history folder, the Range Rover seemed to go through quite a few of these. That was until 2016 when Lloyd Specialist Developments, a company with particular expertise in modifying Rover V8 engines, built a 4.8-litre V8 fitted with a Rotrex C38 supercharger for the vehicle. While it's unclear how much power the Range Rover now has, it's likely to be quite substantial. The history folder is a very extensive and well-organised one. The V5C is present, and shows three registered former keepers. The current MoT certificate is valid until April 2022, and there's a selection of previous MoTs in the file. However, it's the detailed invoices and correspondence dating from 1998 onwards that really tell the story of this Range Rover. Many, many thousands of pounds have been spent over the years, on body, mechanical and interior repairs and enhancements. A lot of care and attention to detail has been lavished on it over the years, no matter how big or small the job. The current mileage is around 82,000 miles, which can be warranted from the history file. The Range Rover is in excellent condition throughout.

1985 Mazda RX-7 FBMake: Mazda Model: RX7Year: 1985Mileage: 67785VIN: JMZFB131200702776Configuration: Right Hand DriveRegistration: B30WFJTransmission: manualMazda's RX-7 was the model that brought the Wankel rotary engine to widespread acceptance, being produced over three generations from 1978 to 2002. The sleek and sculptured first generation cars, running through to 1985, are the most desirable models among classic Japanese enthusiasts. The vendor believes that this is 'almost certainly the best UK right-hand drive Mazda RX-7 in existence', and, after a total restoration including an engine rebuild, its condition is certainly excellent, inside and out. In fact, virtually the only exterior flaw is some light cracking to the rear polyurethane spoiler, while the red/brown interior has virtually no flaws. During an extended road test for Classic Car Weekly - which will be featuring the car before it is auctioned - the RX-7 also drove extremely well, with a delightfully rorty exhaust note. The history folder is almost as superbly presented as the car; a large leather folder with everything organised in clear folders. It contains the history of the car from 1990, when it was acquired from a Mazda main dealer with 59,000 miles on the clock. That owner reputedly kept it in a heated garage but used it sparingly for days out and shows. There's lots of paperwork from his time with the car. When the car was sold in 2014, the next owner had the wheels professionally refurbished, before it went to a new keeper. An investigation to find out why there was excessive smoke resulted in the engine being rebuilt again, at 67,780 miles in December 2020. At the same time, a new clutch was fitted, the carburettor was stripped and rebuilt, items in the engine bay were powder-coated, the brakes were dismantled to resolve some binding and a Racing Beat stainless steel exhaust was fitted. The cost of this came to £4750. There was a rebuild and repaint around the same time (although the £6485 estimate for this reads 2010, we think this is a typing error as it is addressed to the owner who only bought the car in 2019, and there is further correspondence and pictures showing the work being done during December 2020). Four new Nankang Sportnex tyres were fitted in April 2021. Other invoices in the file date back to the 1980s; this is a vehicle that has had many thousands spent on it, There are also current and previous V5Cs, two sets of spare keys, a Mazda-branded full car cover, tax discs from 2004, 2011 and 2012, document wallet with owner's handbook and stamped service booklet, a range brochure, and MoT certificates from 2019, 2017, 2016, 2014, 2013, 2012, 2011 and 2010. The current MoT is valid until February 2022 and the present mileage is 67,785.

1989 TVR 280 S2Make: TVRModel: 280 S2 Year: 1989Mileage: 66000VIN: SA9DSN2P6LL019186Configuration: Right Hand DriveRegistration: G213YLHTransmission: manualAfter the advent of the TVR's more wedge-shaped, expensive and powerful cars of the 1980s, based on the Tasmin design, the S series later on in the decade was pitched as an entry level option. There was a return to the curves of the earlier cars, along with Ford V6 'Cologne' engines. The S2, as here, was introduced in 1988 with a 2922cc V6 as also found in contemporary Sierras, Granadas and Scorpios. The vendor purchased this car in September 2013, and had various work carried out over the years including a glassfibre respray in 2018. All panels were also realigned and there were new outriggers and a new exhaust as well. In addition, the alloy wheels were refurbished, at a cost of £270. The vendor reports that the car has been serviced annually and waterless antifreeze is now in use to improve cooling. A new battery was fitted in September of this year. The odometer indicates a mileage of circa 65,554, which is backed up by all the documentation. A check on the online MoT history reveals that since its 2006 MoT, just over 2000 miles have been covered. A fresh MoT has just been put on the car, which is valid until October 2022. The history folder includes the V5C and owner's document wallet with owner's handbook and service record (albeit only stamped up to 23,419 miles in 1991). There are assorted tax discs, various MoTs from 1997 onwards, and a huge amount of bills and invoices from the 1990s onwards, testifying to a lot of care, attention and expenditure over the years. A spare set of keys also comes with the car, as does a Haynes Ford Sierra workshop manual (for engine information) and a more specific manual on the S series range in general (the pages of which have unfortunately detached from their ring-binder, but seems complete).

1973 Triumph TR6 PiMake: TriumphModel: TR6Year: 1973Mileage: 64374VIN: CR8100Configuration: Right Hand DriveRegistration: SBW388LTransmission: manualThe Triumph TR6 is regarded as the last of the traditional TR sports cars, with a lineage that can be traced directly back to the first production model, the TR2, of 1953. Introduced in 1968, it kept the centre section, frame, 2.5-litre six-cylinder engine and running gear of the previous TR5, but with a more modern nose and tail designed by German coachbuilder Karmann grafted on. The vendor tells us that this example was fully restored in 2015, and 'has been maintained to a high standard and in in perfect running condition'. The current odometer reader is 64,374 miles. The history folder includes the current V5C (noting 15 former keepers), the British Motor Industry Heritage Trust certificate (which indicates that the car was once Emerald Green) and MoTs from 2016 to 2018. The file of bills dates from 2015 to 2017, many of them relating to the restoration. Major items include a fuel injection metering unit, steering rack, bonnet assembly, carpet set, hood cover and seat foam set. There's also a set of spare keys. Thanks to having only covered less than 500 miles since restoration, this Triumph TR6 remains in excellent condition throughout, although a perfectionist may want to realign the bonnet to even up the panel gaps.

1978 Ford Escort RS 2000 MK2Make: Ford Model: Escort RS 2000Year: 1978Mileage: 63975VIN: CXATUR63333Configuration: Right Hand DriveRegistration: YNF669STransmission: manualThe Escort RS2000 Mk2 is one of the most desirable of all 1970s' 'fast' Fords, and also one of the most distinctive, with its wedge-shaped polyurethane nose cone and other performance styling flourishes. This Diamond White example originated from South Africa and is one of fewer than 1000 made there. The two-door bodyshell has the same heavy duty inner wings and rear chassis rails as the UK shells, along with a rear stabiliser bar and large fuel tank located in the boot over the rear axle. All the cars were fitted with opening front quarterlights (to combat the warmer, dry climate) and Beta cloth-trimmed Scheel recliners, which are still fitted on this example. The car has its correct RS2000 features including the 2.0-litre Pinto engine with progressive twin-venturi single Weber carburettor and original four-speed gearbox. It is fitted with original 6J x 13in RS alloy wheels and the 185/60 R13 tyres are nearly new. The Weathershields Ltd Sunway Roof has, apparently, been fitted from new. Supplied new in 1978 and imported to the UK in 2015, this car is now fully UK registered. The history file includes the current V5C, old MoT certificates, import paperwork and invoices totalling over £2300 for mechanical and cosmetic parts. There's also a picture of the Escort and its proud owner at the Hoddesdon Town Centre Vintage and Classic Vehicle Display in 2015, where it won Car of the Show. There are some blemishes to the paintwork visible, but the refurbishment seems to have been undertaken to a generally good standard. All trim sections and RS decals and badges remain intact and in excellent order. Inside, the seats have been retrimmed. All dashboard functions operate perfectly. The dash top has been re covered and the original leather bound three spoke steering wheel remains with a RS central boss cover. The carpets and door cards are in excellent condition.

1939 Rover P2 10Make: Rover Model: P2 10 Year: 1939Mileage: 0VIN: 902596Configuration: Right Hand DriveRegistration: CED511Transmission: manualThis lovely-looking 1939 Rover 10 P2 has come from a small private collection, where it had been since 2006. Known as Cedric, in reference to its CED 511 numberplate, little is known about the 1389cc car's earlier life except that it was sold new on Anglesey. Following discovery in a Cumbrian barn in 1967, it was fully restored and repainted brown and cream. In 2003, it was sold and subsequently refurbished again, this time being painted green. During 2008, it was repainted once again in maroon and black, the livery it wears today and which particularly suits it. The current mileage is showing as 65,820 on the odometer, with six previous registered keepers recorded. The history folder is huge, with the current V5C present along with some previous V5Cs. There are many photos of body work being undertaken over the years (including one set showing attention during 2012), assorted parts catalogues, Pearson workshop manual, and relevant magazines, and tax discs, MoTs invoices dating back over many decades. There are even some toll tickets - it seems that almost everything related to this Rover has been saved and preserved. An insurance assessment from 2011 cites the then 63,901-mile Rover as being 'one of the finest examples of this model still used regularly by a very caring owner'. Improvements listed include a galvanised floor, stainless steel exhaust and thorough underbody seal comprised of old engine oil and waxoyl done personally by the owner. Electric washers were fitted, the braking system overhauled and the original leather seats and West of England cloth headlining described as in remarkable condition for their age. The Rover also comes with some spare keys.

1973 Jensen Interceptor III AutoMake: Jensen Model: Interceptor IIIYear: 1973Mileage: 45045VIN: 13618095Configuration: Right Hand DriveRegistration: 739JGWTransmission: automaticThe Jensen Interceptor MkIII was introduced in 1971 as an updated variant of the S2 that included a revised front grille, headlamp finishers and bumper treatment. GKN alloy wheels and air conditioning were standard, and there were also revised seats. Under the bonnet, the mighty 6.3-litre V8 engine was superseded by the even mightier 7.2-litre V8. Registered in January 1973, the vendor tells us that this Interceptor, in blue with beige leather interior, was restored and then placed into dry storage for 29 years. Recent work since it re-emerged has included an aluminium fuel tank (£799.95). The odometer reading is now 45,045 miles. The paperwork folder includes the current V5C, recording six former keepers, plus several invoices for recent work. PLEASE SEE BELOW FOR VIDEO PRODUCED 12TH OCTOBER BY ACA OF THIS CAR.

In its final year, just 4000 were built, making this late example quite a rare machine. This white 1.3 Clubman example is fitted with the venerable and robust 1275cc A-Series engine, developing 68bhp. Supplied new by Rover Central Garages in Torbay, the V5C records this car as having had four previous keepers. The expiry date for the MoT is May 2022, and the odometer records 49,097 miles covered. The history folder includes original owner's books in their Rover wallet. The service book is stamped up until 34,033 miles in 2004, but there is a handwritten note attesting to an owner service at 48,721 miles during July 2021. The oil was changed and a new distributor cap, thermostat and spark plugs were fitted, while the cooling system was flushed and refilled with Comma G48 coolant. There are also MoT certificates from 1998, 1999, 2000 and 2019, and a few older bills. A spare key is also included. This Maestro is very well-preserved and, aside from some scratches on the front valance, some marks on the grey fabric upholstery and areas of loose headlining, is in very tidy condition overall. Even the digital clock is working. PLEASE SEE BELOW FOR VIDEO PRODUCED 7TH OCTOBER BY ACA OF THIS CAR.

1956 Ford Consul MKIIMake: FordModel: Consul MKIIYear: 1956Mileage: 0VIN: 204E18058Configuration: Right Hand DriveRegistration: KSL696Transmission: manual1,703cc, 4-cylinder, 59bhp, 3-speed manual column gear change. Built by Ford at Dagenham, the Consul MKII was produced to modernise the Consul and Zephyr/Zodiac range, with its additional chrome and larger interior. The Zephyr and Zodiac focused on the upper end of the market while the Consul satisfied the needs of the masses with its four-cylinder engine. This car was retained by the first owner until 1982 and then the second owner until 2008. After fifty-three years it was acquired by the MKII Owners Club who stated that it was possibly the earliest MKII Consul in existence as it has a flat rear panel whereas the vast majority were fluted. It was featured on the front cover of Classic Car Weekly in 2009, a copy of which is included in the history file. Described by the vendor as a very good driving example with both a good engine and gearbox. Its history file covers mostly from the 1980's through to the present including many MoTs dating from the 1980's to 2020 when last issued, some receipts dating from 2009 to 2020, articles, work analysis from 2012 to 2016 and magazaines.

1999 Fiat Coupe 20v Turbo LEMake: Fiat Model: Coupe 20v Turbo LEYear: 1999Mileage: 136000VIN: ZFA175000P0060866Configuration: Right Hand DriveRegistration: T802VGBTransmission: manualIn 1998, Fiat released the Limited Edition (LE) turbocharged variant of its Coupe, with several distinctive features to differentiate it from lesser versions. Externally, there was a body kit, Titanium Grey detailing on the wheels, fuel cap, rear light cups and mirror casings, and red-painted Brembo brake calipers. Inside, the sporty Fiat had a push-button start, Recaro seats with red leather inserts, Sparco pedals and a Titanium Grey dash. Mechanically, a six speed gearbox was fitted, as well as a strut brace, and the engine covers were painted red. Exterior colour were black, red, Vinci Grey, Crono Grey and Steel Grey. This is number 132 of 300 UK-supplied LEs, finished in Crono Grey. All the original LE features are with the car, with a set of rear light replacement cups in the boot. 136,105 miles are recorded, which is warranted by the history, and the V5C records six former keepers. The paperwork file includes a documentation folder with owner's handbook and duplicate service book, featuring 12 entries up to 135,704 miles on 14 December 2020. There's a large stack of recent invoices dating back over the last decade or so, showing items such as a new head gasket in September 2010, turbocharger in June 2012 at 112,044 miles, radiator (£306.40) in August 2013, clutch in November 2014 at 120,536 miles, front brake pads in November 2020, reconditioned steering rack (£265) in December 2020 at 135,704 miles, and battery in January 2021.

The vendor tells us that this is a well-maintained, original car with a recent new hood. The interior is beige leather. The MoT is a recent one, and valid until October 2022. Very recent work has included new brake pads and discs front and rear, battery and an engine service. There is rust showing on the door bottoms - a very common place for it to break out on these otherwise usually resilient Swedish cars - as well as on the offside front and nearside rear arches. Included in the history file is the V5C showing four previous registered keepers plus the current MoT certificate. The odometer records 104,638 miles.

Among the model's features were body-coloured bumpers, special painted BBS wheels and cloth Recaro seats. This 1991 1.8 GTi variant, registered in June of that year, is described by the vendor as 'an older restoration but one that still looks well.' Among the work undertaken has been an engine rebuild, engine bay refurbishment, new suspension and more, at around 169,800 miles. There are numerous receipts from this 2015/2016 period. We're told that, since then, the car has been regularly serviced. The last service indicated was in July 2020 at 172,260 miles. Current mileage is 172,429 miles. There's a large service and invoice folder which also contains some earlier receipts back to around 2010, in addition to the ones from around the restoration. MoT certificates back to 2011, the document wallet with owner's handbook and service booklet and spare keys are also included. There's also a spare set of keys. The present MoT is valid until May 2022.

1979 Alfa Romeo AlfasudMake: Alfa RomeoModel: AlfasudYear: 1979Mileage: 0VIN: 5037652Configuration: Right Hand DriveRegistration: JG0857TTransmission: manualThis Alfasud is no longer quite as Alfa Romeo built it during the summer of 1979. The vendor tells us that it was converted in the late 1980s/early 1990s to compete in the Chris Knott Alfa Romeo Championship, with its original 1186cc engine replaced by a 1490cc 'Green Cloverleaf' unit instead. The engine and suspension were prepared by marque specialist BLS in Lincoln. The car was last used competitively in 1994 before being stored until late 2020. The cambelt, fluids and battery were replaced before the engine was restarted, after which the brakes were overhauled with new new seals and front pads. A spare bonnet and the original wheels come with the car.

1959 VW Beach Buggy Make: Contact AuctioneerModel: Contact AuctioneerYear: 0Mileage: 0VIN: U0495169Configuration: Right Hand DriveRegistration: ASJ671Transmission: Contact AuctioneerThanks to the sheer numbers of beach and dune buggy designs that have appeared over the years, it can be difficult to tell from which company a particular version originated. However, the owner believes this one to be a GP1 short wheelbase model, based on the chassis and mechanicals of a 1959 Volkswagen Beetle, with a 1.3-litre engine. This striking metallic green buggy, with light beige interior, was registered in the UK in 1984 - although it's unclear if this is when it was built or if it was previously used abroad - and 17 former keepers are recorded since its British registration. The history file includes the current V5C and several 2013 receipts from specialist VW Heritage.

1996 Toyota Starlet 1.3 Glanza V Turbo EP91Make: Toyota Model: Starlet Glanza V Turbo Year: 1996Mileage: 119243VIN: EP910164429Configuration: Right Hand DriveRegistration: P539GPFTransmission: manualThe Glanza was the sporty variant of the final generation of the small Toyota Starlet. The S version was powered by a naturally-aspirated 1331cc engine, while the Glanza V featured the same motor albeit turbocharged. In the S, it generated 84bhp, but with the V - as here - turbocharging pushed the total up to 138bhp which, in such a lightweight machine, gave impressive performance. The Glanza was only officially available on the Japanese market, although some used private imports have made their way to the UK, such as this one. Registered in August 1996, we are advised by the vendor that it's a recent JDM (Japanese domestic market) import, which has just been given a new MoT with no advisories. The ticket is valid until October 2022. He also tells us that it 'drives superbly well' and is 'incredibly rare in such standard original form, with OEM (original equipment manufacturer) exhaust, intercooler, air box, stereo, CD changer, rear speakers, wind deflectors and JDM parking stick'. The odometer reads 119,243, which equates to 74,526 miles. There is little history; the paperwork folder consisting of the current V5C, 2020 and 2021 MoTs and numberplate authorisation certificate dated November 2020, from shortly after its import. Overall, this Toyota is in very good order, with just a few blemishes in its metallic black paintwork and few signs of wear to its blue interior.

NICK EVANS large oil on board - expansive and powerful depiction of a mining community with houses, smoking chimneys, colliery and a mass of men alongside sheep surrounding a locomotive ridden by gentlemen in top-hats, entitled verso 'Trevithick Engine 1804', signed and dated 1978, 122 x 122cms Provenance: private collection Cardiff Auctioneer's Note: on 21 February 1804, the world's first ever railway journey ran 9 miles from the ironworks at Penydarren to the Merthyr-Cardiff Canal, South Wales. It was to be several years before steam locomotion became commercially viable, meaning Richard Trevithick and not George Stephenson was the real father of the railways. In 1803, Samuel Homfray brought Richard Trevithick to his Penydarren ironworks at Merthyr Tydfil in South Wales. Homfray was interested in the high pressure engines that the Cornishman had developed and installed in his road engines. He encouraged Trevithick to look into the possibility of converting such an engine into a rail-mounted locomotive to travel over the newly laid tramroad from Penydarren to the canal wharf at Abercynon. It would appear that Trevithick started work on the locomotive in the autumn of 1803 and, by February 1804, it was completed. Tradition has it that Richard Crawshay, owner of the nearby Cyfarthfa ironworks, was highly sceptical about the new engine, and he and Homfray placed a wager of 500 guineas each with Richard Hill (of the Plymouth ironworks) as to whether or not the engine could haul ten tons of iron to Abercynon, and haul the empty wagons back. The first run was on 21 February, and was described in some detail by Trevithick, 'yesterday we proceeded on our journey with the engine, and we carried ten tons of iron in five wagons, and seventy men riding on them the whole of the journey... the engine, while working, went nearly five miles an hour; there was no water put into the boiler from the time we started until our journey's end... the coal consumed was two hundredweight". Unfortunately, on the return journey a bolt sheared, causing the boiler to leak. The fire then had to be dropped and the engine did not get back to Penydarren until the following day. This gave Crawshay reason to claim that the run had not been completed as stipulated in the wager, but it is not known if this was ever settled! The engine was, in fact, too heavy for the rails. Later, it would serve as a stationary engine driving a forge hammer at the Penydarren works.

Ex-Sword Collection1907 De Dion Bouton Type AL 8hp Two-Seater with SpiderRegistration no. DS 6824Chassis no. 714Engine no. 20711 •A fine example of the Edwardian De Dion Bouton•Veteran Car Club Dated•Eligible for VCC events including 'Creepy Crawly'•Various spares included Footnotes:At the turn of the 20th century De Dion-Bouton was firmly established as France's, indeed the world's most prolific manufacturer of car engines and cars, with a reputation for well-engineered products. Early rear-engined models, driving through a system of gears to the rear wheels and featuring the renowned De Dion rear axle, gave way to a new generation of front-engined cars for the 1902 season. De Dion's sliding cone gearbox was virtually fool proof and the fast-revving engines were extremely reliable. This method of propulsion continued for several years, with certain modifications and the Model AL, of which this car is an example, was introduced in 1905.The early history of this car is not specifically known, but some of it can be deduced from the car itself and the first time that it surfaced on collector's radars. That was when it was included in the second of the two legendary Sword Collection auctions, at East Balgray in March 1965, where it was sold as Lot 34 the considerable sum of £1,100. It was registered then 'BW 1103', the BW prefix relating to road registration with Oxford County Council, and since that series began in the earliest days it may well have been its original plate. Interestingly, it also still carries dealer plates for De Dion Bouton's UK agency of Great Marlborough Street and Geo. Burtenshaw of Reigate, all of which suggest a tie of early history in the London suburbs. Generally John Sword's collecting is thought to have been most prolific in the 1940s, so it is likely that the car had been there since that time.Reports on the Sword sale are included with the paperwork which comes with the car. The identity of the buyer is not known, but later on it was put on display at the Automobilia Cornish Museum at St. Austell, owned by Colin and Carol Vincent. Other owners noted from the file are Keith Butti of Upminster, Essex and David Robinson of nearby Brentwood who purchased it for the sum of £5,500. It then appears to have been transferred to Mrs Robinson in 1983, from whom the current owner's late husband purchased it in 2002. By that time it had the 'DS' prefix number it now wears.Immediately upon acquisition he set about a full restoration and a full photographic record of this is included in the sale. It was able to be entered for the 2002 Brighton Run, the RAC having reviewed the eligibility for the Run to include cars of 1905 and 1906 manufacture, a decision reversed the following year after much protest. DS 6824 ran as No. 518R and completed the trip.It was subsequently formally dated by the Veteran Car Club as a Model AL probably manufactured in 1907 and a Dating Certificate (Number 2395) to this effect was issued and comes with the car.This De Dion was meticulously maintained by its very able (now sadly deceased) enthusiastic engineer owner and has participated in many Veteran Car Club Creepy Crawly and other rallies, for which, as a strong runner, it remains eligible, as well as those organised for members of the burgeoning De Dion Bouton Club UK. With its attractive colour scheme DS 6824 presents extremely well and comes with a Stepney, a full set of lighting, including a very nice pair of Lucas Autolite headlamps and several spares, including what is believed to be the original crankcase, flywheels and two cylinder heads and a history file.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

1904 Brennan 14/18hp Twin Cylinder Five seater Rear Entrance TonneauRegistration no. BS8175Chassis no. 194Engine no. 1348 •Present ownership since 1995•Powerful and Reliable 5 seater Veteran car•Believed to be one of only four surviving pre 1905 Brennan cars•VCC dating certificate No. 2011Footnotes:The Brennan Manufacturing Co. of Syracuse, New York, initially built engines for other motor car manufacturers but it is believed that as early as 1902 they would build complete bespoke automobiles for favoured customers. In the burgeoning motor car industry in the United States competition on pricing was fierce and Brennan found that they could not compete with the likes of Ford, Cadillac and Oldsmobile while building a well-engineered product. Motor car production was therefore short-lived and ceased c.1908.The very early history of this car is not known but photographs from the late 1930s/early 1940s indicate that at that time the car belonged to a Mr. Porter from Buffalo . It was then part of the Walter Meyer Upstate Automobile Museum, Bridgewater, NY, a museum which closed in 1989. It was imported into the UK in 1990 in distressed condition carrying two seater coachwork with clear evidence that at some stage it had carried a rear seating arrangement. The condition of the coachwork demanded that a new body be manufactured and the present owner embarked on building a five seater rear entrance body using traditional ash framing. A meticulous comprehensive restoration was carried out by its new (and present) engineer owner over the period 1995-2005. Such engine parts as were missing were re-manufactured and the car now has a new crankshaft, connecting rods and pistons. Other engine parts were repaired as necessary, although the aim throughout the restoration was to retain originality wherever possible.The gearbox was in fair condition but was stripped and repaired, with new bearings and bushes. A new radiator was manufactured in the style of the original. Water and fuel tanks were remanufactured to the original specification. The rear axle was stripped and fitted with new bearings, bushes, drive chain and sprocket and the brake bands were re- lined. The original wheels were repaired.The new rear-entrance coachwork was liveried in Wine Red with gold coach lining and upholstered in deep buttoned black leather and a full tonneau cover was provided.Upon road testing it was found that the original Schebler carburettor and manifold were a flawed design and this was replaced by twin Amal carburettors with modified manifolding. This has significantly enhanced the performance of the car. The original carburettor and manifold are offered with the car. Twin HT coils are now fitted to enhance smoother running, but the original coil is offered with the car.Since restoration the Brennan has taken part in many veteran car events and has successfully completed the London to Brighton Veteran Car Run on many occasions. The vendor reports it 'is more than capable of climbing all hills in the London to Brighton Run with four adults on board without dropping lower than second gear'.Numerous spare parts come with the car together with tooling and literature, including a 'Brennan Standard Gasoline Motors' handbook dated 1903 . The car is generously equipped with Lucas King of the Road sidelamps, a Dietz acetylene generator and Saxon headlamps, a Stadium rear view mirror, a 'fat man' style folding steering wheel and an umbrella basket. This magnificent and powerful veteran car is offered with a current UK MoT certificate of roadworthiness and VCC Dating Certificate No.2011 issued in 1994.The car is entered for the 2021 LBVCR and the vendor will be happy to advise the new owner regarding driving instructions.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

1913 Sunbeam 12/16hp TourerRegistration no. DE 471Chassis no. 6424Engine no. 6750 •High quality model from a premier make•One of an estimated 50 complete survivors•Exported new to New Zealand•Present ownership since 2007•Well known in Sunbeam, VCC, and VSCC circles Footnotes:Founded by John Marston, a God-fearing Victorian industrialist, Sunbeam was first associated with beautifully made, though expensive, bicycles. The arrival from Hillman in 1909 of influential designer Louis Coatalen and the pursuit of an effective competitions programme enabled Sunbeam to establish a formidable reputation prior to WWI, its superbly made products ranking alongside the best from Alvis and Bentley thereafter. Fewer than 5,000 of the four-cylinder 12/16hp model were made between 1910 and 1914, the example offered here being one of an estimated 50-or-so complete survivors worldwide. Believed to be a Colonial model, this car was exported to New Zealand when new (hence the wire wheels, as wooden wheels were prone to termite attack). The Sunbeam is believed to have stayed with the first owner until 1955 when it passed to Walsh Motors in Cambridge, North Island (duplicate registration certificate on file). Walsh Motors kept the Sunbeam on display for a further 25 years before it was acquired by an enthusiast/engineer who carried out some restoration. At some point the car returned to the UK and eventually was offered for sale at a Hendon auction in October 1990.The current vendor purchased the car in 2007. Improvements carried out since then include enlarging and improving the rear-wheel brakes and reconditioning the Dynastart in 2008 (invoices on file), and rebuilding the wheels in 2009 with new rims and spokes. Accompanying the car is the vendor's own coil ignition system, which can be carried as a spare and in case of emergency fitted to replace the magneto in around five minutes. A set of period-correct nickel-plated electric lamps has been fitted, together with indicators. Weather equipment consists of a full hood, hood cover, and tonneau cover, while rear passengers benefit from a foldaway Auster screen.In addition to numerous other events, the vendor used the Sunbeam on the Sunbeam Talbot Darraq Register's Orkney and Shetland Rally in 2010, and the car is well known in Sunbeam, VCC, and VSCC circles. The vendor's treasured Sunbeam was used regularly until around six years ago, since when he has not used it due to a change in domestic circumstances. He has, however, regularly started and driven it at his home. Documentation includes a VSCC Eligibility Document; VCC Certificate of Date; old/current V5C documents; a quantity of expired MoTs; a copy of The Register of Sunbeam Motorcars; and the aforementioned NZ duplicate registration certificate. It should be noted that the chassis number has not been found but is recorded as '6424' on the V5C.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

Entered in the 2021 London to Brighton Veteran Car Run, no. 2451904 Crestmobile Model D 8½ hp Four-Seater Rear-Entrance TonneauRegistration no. BS 8140Chassis no. 412 •Imported into the UK in January 1990•Three UK owners•Maintained with no expense spared•Many-time London-Brighton finisher•Entered in the 2021 London to Brighton Veteran Car Run, no.251 Footnotes:Based at Cambridge, Massachusetts, the Crest Manufacturing Company first produced gasoline engines before venturing into car production, 'manufacturing all the parts to construct automobiles'. Crest first demonstrated its capability to do so in 1900, offering a three-wheeler initially, but by 1901 had settled for a four-wheeled, front-engined design to become known as the 'Crestmobile'. The first Crestmobiles were single-cylinder, chain-driven two-seaters - Models A, B and C - all of which had air-cooled engines although of varying power outputs. Shaft drive had been adopted by 1903 and a new 8½hp single-cylinder model introduced in 1904, but Crest was slow to adapt to changing expectations within the emerging market for powered transport, where multi-cylinder designs were becoming the norm, and folded in 1905. Offered here is a fine example of the Crestmobile Model D, which was available in either 5hp or 8½hp forms and with a choice of two bodies: two-seater runabout or four-seater tonneau. The car was imported into the UK in January 1990 and in June of that year was purchased from 'The Brighton Connection' (Don Meyer/Reg Whapham) by Mr S J Timmins of Shropshire. The Crestmobile was dated by the VCC in 1992. Mr Timmins only ran the car once.In June 1999 the Crestmobile was purchased from Mr Timmins by the immediately preceding owner and completed its first run with them that year. The car was maintained from 2000 to 2002 by NP Veteran Engineering, who carried out works to the engine and gearbox (£6,000), while more recently Historic Vehicle Restoration/Seb Marshall has been responsible for the its upkeep. In 2014 works to the engine and gearbox costing £12,000 were carried out. The car has also benefited from new kingpins, cooling fan, fan bearing, fan belt, exhaust and inlet valves, moved steering arm, and replaced wheel bearings, there being two related bills from 2016 totalling £21,000. In 2017 a further £5,000 was spent on the rear axle, new exhaust manifold, new fan, piston work, etc, while rebuilding the gearbox and fitting a new cylinder barrel cost £7,000 in 2018. Another barrel and new piston rings were fitted in 2019 together with new battery, new trembler box, new front wheel bearings, and reassembled front wheels (£15,000). Cosmetic attention to the body and wings cost a further £18,000 in 2019. The current vendor purchased the Crestmobile at Bonhams' Golden Age of Motoring sale in October 2020 (Lot 221), since when the gearbox and hubs have been repaired by NP Veteran Engineering. NP's detailed bill is on file.Four large files of history and paperwork include a VCC dating certificate; a V5C document; numerous old MoTs; London-Brighton programmes and entry details; and several finishers medals, the most recent being 2019.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

1903 Wolseley 10HP Twin-Cylinder Four-Seat Rear-Entrance TonneauRegistration no. DO 54Chassis no. 510•Re-imported from New Zealand in the 1960s/1970s•Present ownership since 2000•Successfully completed 17 London-to-Brighton Runs with the vendor •Entered in the 2021 London to Brighton Veteran Car Run, no.161 Footnotes:The cars made by the Wolseley Tool & Motor-Car Company, Limited, are typical throughout of English rather than of Continental engineering practice. They have earned golden opinions for their power, simplicity, and freedom from breakdown...' – A B Filson Young, The Complete Motorist, 1904. Although long since departed, Wolseley was one of Britain's foremost makes throughout the Edwardian period and into the 1920s. The company had been founded by Irish-born Frederick York Wolseley in Sydney, Australia in 1887 to manufacture sheep-shearing equipment. Two years later a subsidiary was set up in Birmingham, England where works manager Herbert Austin would be responsible for the first Wolseley motor car, a three-wheeler built on Léon Bollée lines, in around 1895/1896. The three-wheeled models were made in strictly limited numbers and in 1899 were replaced with Wolseley's first four-wheeled design: a 5hp model featuring a front-mounted, horizontal, single-cylinder engine; chain final drive; and steering by tiller. Wolseley's motor manufacturing business having been acquired by armaments manufacturer Vickers Son & Maxim, production of the 5hp single and a 10hp twin commenced at a new factory in Adderley Park, Birmingham in 1901. The horizontal-engined Wolseleys sold well for the next couple of years, but the company's management was convinced that the future lay with vertical engines. Unwilling to abandon his favoured horizontal type, Herbert Austin left to found his own company, which, somewhat ironically, commenced production with a range of vertical-engined models. Purchased privately in 1999 from a John Smith, the car offered here is an example of Wolseley's Austin-designed 2.6-litre, twin-cylinder 10hp, a model produced between 1901 and 1905. The history file indicates that the car had been imported (around the 1960s/1970s) from New Zealand where it had been in use, having had some major restoration, with a non-original and very basic body. Used for the vendor's first attempt at the London-to-Brighton Run in 2000, the Wolseley only managed to get to Crawley having stopped many times, mostly due to fuel starvation. A comprehensive overhaul of the fuel system was then undertaken (new tank, new fuel lines, etc). Next to go was the rudimentary New Zealand-built body. Following a year's research, a completely new body was made, copied from the Wolseley in the Gaydon motor museum. The Wolseley's present body is thus completely authentic in appearance and is the same colour as when the car was new in 1903. Photographs of the body undergoing construction are on file. It was then discovered some of the gears had teeth missing, preventing them from engaging correctly. A complete new set of gears was made and fitted. (The old gears are available and may be used as patterns or possibly repaired.) The next problem found was that when the car was loaded (i.e. with four people), the handbrake (which is the main brake) was almost ineffective. A new brake design was implemented - almost identical to the original - and is said to work very well. It was now time to research the carburettor, which took almost two years, as many other Wolseleys had to be located and permission sought to copy their carburettors. A Mechanical Engineer then prepared a set of drawings, and Paul of Dula Engineering made a new Wolseley carburettor (at a considerable cost). The vendor advises us that this has greatly improved the car's performance and that it now runs very well. New pistons were installed and a trip to Brighton without a breakdown was almost guaranteed! However, it was discovered that in bad weather the distributor would take in water, necessitating the installation of a new distributor, which looks exactly like the original and works very well, emitting a visible spark to indicate that the tremblers are doing their job. On one Pioneer Run in Ireland, a serious front wheel wobble manifested itself, which was sorted out by Nigel Parrott at N P Veteran Engineering where the car was also treated to a major service. The track rods can now be adjusted to prevent any further wobbling. Details of the research carried out; modifications made; and new components fitted may be found within the substantial history file. Offered with an entry into the 2021 London to Brighton Veteran Car Run, the car also comes with a (copy) Wolseley handbook; two spare tyres (815x105); and the original distributor. 'DO 54' has been used almost every year since 2000 and has successfully completed 17 London-to-Brighton Runs as well as numerous 'Creepy Crawly' events and Pioneer Runs in Ireland. In the vendor's own words: 'I have carried out several improvements to make this car a reliable Brighton runner. Providing you get to know it and drive with care and attention, you will be assured of getting to the finish line, hopefully by 12pm!For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

Entered in the 2021 London to Brighton Veteran Car Run1904 Peugeot Type 67A 10/12hp Twin-Cylinder Swing-Seat TonneauRegistration no. LE7436Chassis no. 5348 Engine no. AI 5592•Restored in the early 1970s•Four-speeds-plus-reverse gearbox•Conventional control pedal layout•Present ownership since 1994•Many-time London to Brighton finisher•Entered in the 2021 London to Brighton Veteran Car Run, no. 253 Footnotes:The Peugeot is the French car that still maintains its excellence and is the only firm of long-standing repute still manufacturing two-cylinder engined cars and with a range of models from 8 hp to 50 hp ... it is made apparent that the Peugeot cars are fully worthy of the high place they have taken in the motor world.' - Max Pemberton. The Amateur Motorist, 1907.Formerly producers of tools, coffee mills, umbrella spikes and corsetry, Peugeot commenced its long-standing connection with transport in 1885 when it added cycle manufacture to its portfolio. Amongst the world's oldest surviving motor manufacturers, the company commenced car production in 1889 with a steam-powered tri-car but soon abandoned steam in favour of the internal combustion engine, building a succession of ever larger automobiles before introducing the first of its famous Bébé light cars in 1900. Step by step Peugeot modernised its designs, adopting the steering wheel in 1901 on the Type 36 and front-mounted engines on all its new models in 1902. From that time forward Peugeot unashamedly copied the Mercedes style in miniature, adopting square-cut honeycomb radiators and reinforced timber chassis; even the twin-cylinder 9hp had mechanically-operated inlet valves in a pair-cast 'T-head' engine. Peugeot produced singles, twins and four-cylinder cars at this time, some with chain and others with shaft drive, the latter becoming universal after 1909. Built at Peugeot's Audincourt factory in north-eastern France, this 10/12hp model was purchased from a Mr John Wilkins and brought over to England in the early 1970s as a rolling chassis (see photographs and correspondence on file). The car was subsequently restored by Graham Wilde and Peter Howarth, with any new parts required being made from the original Peugeot drawings from 1904. The new body is painted green and the interior is upholstered in red leather. First registered in the UK on 1st February 1974 with Peter Howarth as the registered owner, the Peugeot was certified by the VCC dating committee on 3rd April 1974 (certificate number '1373').The twin-cylinder engine displaces 1,817cc and is rated at 10/12hp. The car retains the original dual ignition system, while the gearbox has four speeds plus reverse. The drive from the engine to the gearbox is via a cone clutch and the drive from the gearbox to the rear wheels is by means of twin chains. The pedal control layout is as current-day manual cars. Braking is by a foot-operated transmission brake and a lever-operated rear-wheel handbrake. Drip-feed oiling to both engine and gearbox is supplied by an engine-driven Dubrule system. An auxiliary engine and gearbox oil 'top up' system is operated by a hand pump.In the present ownership the car has been kept in a heated garage within a Carcoon bubble. It is regularly maintained by the owner, while any major works have been carried out by N P Veteran Engineering (see bills on file). Significant works carried out in the past eight years or so include the following: 2007.Refurbish and repack water pump. Repair radiator leak (£1,500). New engine cylinder2008.liners, pistons and piston rings. New transmission brake drum (£11,000). Relined clutch (£2,000). Relined rear brakes. Re-seat engine valves and make new valve springs (£2,500).The then owner/restorer entered his first Brighton-to-Brighton Run in 1974, and it is understood that he and his son did the Run regularly until the car was sold in 1994. The current owner purchased the Peugeot in March 1994 through Smallbone Vintage Vehicles, Birmingham.The owner's family has entered the car in the London-to-Brighton Run regularly since purchase. They are a large family - three children with partners and 10 grandchildren - so competition for a seat is fierce! Most times the Peugeot carries five occupants of various ages and size, and on a few occasions, even two additional small children! 'LE 7436' has failed to finish on only two occasions: one because of a simple electrical issue (in horrendous rain), the other a medical issue with the driver...! Always greeted with much admiration, the car has also been entered in several local events and shows, principally to demonstrate automotive engineering from 100 years ago.Sadly, the vendor has now reached a point where the physical demands of driving and looking after the car are too much. He would love the new owner to get as much fun and enjoyment out of the car as has he and his family.Described by the vendor as in excellent condition throughout, this imposing motor car has been entered and accepted as a participant in this year's London-to-Brighton Run on Sunday 7th November. A fully enclosed Brian James Sprint Shuttle trailer, tailored to transport the Peugeot, is available via separate negotiation.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

Property of a deceased's estate1906 Stuart 7hp Two-SeaterRegistration no. NMN 952N (Isle of Man)Chassis no. 503Engine no. 819• Rare British make (1906-1908)• Known ownership history• Present ownership since 1997• Benefiting from considerable refurbishment Footnotes:Stuart motor cars were manufactured from 1906 to 1908 by the Star Cycle Company. One of Britain's top six motor manufacturers prior to WWI, Wolverhampton-based Star had produced its first automobile in 1898. A close neighbour of Sunbeam, what would become the Star group of companies had been founded by Edward Lisle Sr, and would later also build Starling-badged cars under the guidance of his son, Edward Jr. Although technically un-adventurous in its early years, Star built up a deserved reputation for building luxuriously appointed and well constructed cars, aided by the fact that it made most of its parts, chassis frames excepted, in house. This charming little two-seater Stuart has been in the current ownership since 1997 and comes with a delightful illustrated history. It is powered by a 1,351cc twin-cylinder engine and has a three-speed gearbox and shaft final drive. Believed exhibited at the Stanley Show in 1906, the car was first registered as 'AH 928' and carries the plaque of supplying dealer Arthur Lane of The Cycle Warehouse, Swaffham. The Stuart was sold new to a Mr A Taylor, a Kings Lynn seed merchant. Circa 1949 the Stuart passed to Kings Lynn garage proprietor, Paddy Mears, who rebuilt the car and drove it on the 1953 celebrations of HM the Queen's coronation. At that time, the Stuart was the oldest car in Kings Lynn. The Stuart then passed via one D Johnson to a J W T Lilley; he submitted the car to the VCC's Dating Committee, who dated it as of 1906 manufacture on 20th March 1963. Mr Lilley used the car on many VCC events before ownership passed to his son in Canada, from whence the Stuart returned in December 1989 courtesy of well known motor dealer, Stephen Langton. The Stuart had two further owners before passing to the current (now deceased) custodian in May 1997. Since then the car has benefited from considerable refurbishment, including rebuilding the cone clutch and water pump; substituting a Zenith carburettor for the existing Brown & Barlow instrument; and fitting a Ford Model T distributor and trembler coils. In addition, the transmission was overhauled with a new crown wheel and pinion and new half-shafts, and the wheels re-varnished. Bonhams can confirm that, although the clutch requires some adjustment, the Stuart drove well on a recent 5-mile run, with good brakes and a decent turn of speed, cruising at 28mph without effort. Notable features include Lucas 'King of the Road' side lamps, small Lucas headlights, and a Ducellier acetylene generator.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

1912 Austin 10/12hp Two-Seat Tourer with DickeyRegistration no. AJ 1284Chassis no. 10227•An older restoration•Exceptionally original•Well known in VCC circles•Substantial history file Footnotes:General Manager of the Wolseley Sheep Shearing Machine Company, Herbert Austin set the Birmingham firm on the road to motor manufacture in 1896 when he designed its first automobile, a twin-cylinder tri-car. The first production Wolseley though, was four-wheeled and, like Austin's 1896 prototype, carried its single cylinder engine horizontally. Austin's belief in the horizontal engine's virtues was not shared by Wolseley's directors however, and he departed in 1905 to set up his own company at nearby Longbridge. Somewhat surprisingly perhaps, the first Austin cars were powered by conventional inline fours with side valves arranged in 'T-head' fashion. Chain drive was a feature of these early Austins but was supplanted by shaft drive within a few years. As well as the fours, Austin also marketed a single-cylinder model and a few sixes prior to WWI. Austin had its own large coachbuilding department and offered a wide variety of complete cars, and even in these early days was in the habit of using English place names for its various body styles. The 1.2-litre, four-cylinder, 10hp model was first introduced - for export only - in 1910, becoming available on the home market the following year, and in 1912 was upgraded with a 1.6-litre engine, as fitted to this car. This 'Edwardian' Austin with two-seater-plus-dickey coachwork was purchased by its last owner, Harry Watson, in 1991 and registered to his granddaughter, Rebecca Leake. 'AJ 1284' has attended numerous VCC rallies and is said to start easily and drive very well. An older restoration, the car remains exceptionally original and is described by the vendor as in excellent condition throughout. It comes complete with full weather equipment (hood, tonneau, etc) and covers for the lights. The wooden box on the running board contains an impressive array of tools, and there is a rear luggage compartment for other items. The accompanying history file is substantial, containing correspondence and notes relating to the car's early days and listing previous owners. These notes include discussion of whether the car was built with the 1.2-litre engine and returned to the factory to be fitted with the 1.6-litre unit, or whether it has had the latter from new. The file also contains a VCC dating certificate (issued 1952); a V5C Registration Certificate; and a (photocopy) handbook.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

Formerly the property of the late Sir John Briscoe1909 Cooper 22.5hp Torpedo TourerRegistration no. BM 1153Chassis no. 2 •The sole survivor of only six made•Unique four-cylinder two-stroke engine•An older restoration benefiting from subsequent refurbishment•Offered from long-term museum display Footnotes:'However, the idea of making motorcars appealed to (Thomas) Cooper, and he designed a 2-cylinder 2-stroke piston-valve engine which he fitted to a car in 1909. It had chain drive to the gearbox and further chain drive to the rear wheels. The production Cooper, which was ready for the 1909 Olympia Show, had a 3260cc 4-cylinder engine, also a 2-stroke with piston valves, shaft drive to the 3-speed gearbox and to the rear wheels. An auxiliary gearbox close to the rear axle gave a total of six forward gears. Only six Coopers were made, each differing in detail from the other.' – The Beaulieu Encyclopedia of the Automobile, Volume 1. The Cooper motorcar was manufactured by the Cooper Steam Digger Co Ltd of King's Lynn, Norfolk, makers of agricultural machinery and traction engines. Its most notable feature is the engine; nowadays we tend to think of the two-stroke engine as a model of simplicity (in its most basic form the single-cylinder 'stroker' has only three moving parts) yet that of the Cooper is breathtakingly complex, featuring two crankshafts and 12 pistons! Of the six cars built, this is the sole survivor. From 1951, the Cooper belonged to the late Sir John Briscoe, who wrote an article about this rarity for the Veteran Car Club Gazette's spring 1955 edition as part of the 'Historic Cars Owned by Members' series (copy available). Looking for a Veteran to restore, Sir John had discovered the Cooper as a 'barn find' at a Suffolk garage. It had last moved in 1921. 'BM 1153' was first registered on 26th November 1909 to Mr Charles Alington of Little Barford, near St Neots, whose mother was a family friend of one of Cooper's directors, W M Pryor. In fact, all six Coopers went to a director or a director's friend. The Alington car was illustrated in The Autocar of February 19th 1910 and was described as having 'A distinctive flush-sided body... by Messrs Maythorn and Son of Biggleswade... four seated and finished in dark green fine lined cream'. Cooper's tester, a Mr Spooner, later recalled that this car was the company's demonstrator at the Olympia Show. Sir John Briscoe states: 'The process of restoration has encountered the usual vicissitudes, from dead mice jammed in the water system to a broken web in the crankcase. ...almost a complete strip of the car was required. As a result, the process of restoration has been fairly lengthy, since I have tried to do everything possible myself (including painting and dealing with corrosion in the body)... The car is in its original condition except for the carburettor, which was originally a Craven but is now a Zenith of late Edwardian type, the side lamps, windscreen, tyres and paint.'In another article entitled 'Driving a Cooper', Sir John states: 'Probably the most satisfying drive of all: the first, to meet the sons of the manufacturer Messrs George and Arthur Cooper.' In fact, when told that Sir John would be visiting them in the Cooper, the brothers had remarked that it would probably break down on the way! It did not. Circa 1992, the Cooper was sold to Sir John's son Sir James Briscoe and in 1994 was inherited by his widow (the current vendor). For many years the car has been in the care of SKF Cooper Bearings of King's Lynn (an offshoot of the original Cooper company). It was last driven in 2014 and has been on museum display at Cooper's since then. Recent refurbishment has included installing new camshaft and crankshaft gears and overhauling the rear axle, these works being undertaken around 2010. The Cooper is finished in its original colour scheme of dark green with cream coachlines, and retains its original deep-buttoned green leather interior. Other notable features include beautiful Bleriot headlamps; a Stewart speedometer; fold-flat windscreen; and a Gabriel nickel-plated 'boa constrictor' horn. A wonderful opportunity to acquire a unique Edwardian motorcar of quite exceptional technological interest.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

Old Stormalong1939 Brough Superior SS100Registration no. GWB 985Chassis no. M1/2161Engine no. BS/X21094Footnotes:Legendary superbike of motorcycling's between-the-wars 'Golden Age', this Brough Superior SS100, registration 'GWB 985', is one of seven supplied new as motorcycle combinations to the Sheffield Police on 6th September 1939. Following 'demobilisation' from the police force, the Brough combination passed through various hands as family transport. The date stamp for the first recorded owner in the accompanying continuation logbook is 23rd October 1947. Four owners are recorded before the immediately preceding owner, Bill Starling, the last of these being the well-known motorcycling journalist and author, John Griffith.Mr Starling purchased 'GWB 985' in December 1972 from Ronald H Clark, author of Brough Superior - the Rolls Royce of Motor Cycles (his name does not appear in the logbook and it seems he used the SS100 with the numberplates of his SS80 attached). Ronald Clark's motorcycling memories were published in the VMCC Journal for April 1979. He recalls buying the Brough from John Griffith, and a subsequent journey from his home in Norfolk to Inverness. This SS100 is also mentioned in the Super Profile book of the Brough Superior SS100 by Colin Simms. An interview with Ronald is published under the heading Owner's View, in which he records that 'GWB 985' went to a great friend (Bill Starling).'Old Stormalong' took part in the Brough Club's 50th Anniversary Rally and appears in the book of the rally as one of the very few machines pictured in action rather than static on the rally field. 'GWB 985 is also pictured in The Classic Motor Cycle's August 2008 edition during the VMCC's Round Norfolk Run, and in the VMCC Journal for January 2011, again on a VMCC run. 'Old Stormalong' has featured frequently over the years in the Brough Club's monthly newsletter in Bill Starling's regular column, The Idle Thoughts of an Idle Fellow . Other awards include the best 'MX100' ridden to the 2009 Brough Club Annual Rally, and the Don Morley Trophy for the best 'MX100' at the 2010 Annual Rally. The Works Record Card confirms that frame 'M1/2161' and engine 'BS/X2 1094' are original; however, it records the gearbox number as 'IN 27785'. When purchased by Bill Starling, gearbox number 'IN 27801' was installed. This is believed to have come from another machine in the same batch of Sheffield Police SS100s. The Works Record Card also confirms that 'outside handlebar controls' were fitted: drum-type twist-grip, lever control for the ignition, and an outside front brake lever (as for the clutch). These are all still in place. The rear numberplate is the genuine, alloy Brough item, while also original are the flared front mudguard and the hinged rear mudguard. Chassis number '2.19' in the works' records, the sidecar had been removed before Ronald Clark's ownership but has since been reacquired. It is fitted with a Brough Superior Cruiser body, replacing the original - and less elegant - special police body, and has a BSA front wheel hub with single-sided 8' brake. The vendor re-fitted the sidecar to the Brough with the intention of riding it to Damascus with Ant Cazelet for company – their intent being to retrace the steps of Brough-owning Lawrence of Arabia – only for the ongoing Syrian civil war to scupper the project. Included in the sale and available for collection by the successful purchaser, the 'chair' has been detached from 'Old Stormalong' but comes complete with all fittings and a comprehensive set of photographs (on CD) showing how it is fitted.When purchased by Bill Starling, the Brough was working but worn. It had limited use for a few years and was then stored for some time. Eventually, Bill's father re-commissioned the machine and returned it to him early in 1982. Around 2,000 miles were covered between then and June 1985. Some minor work was then required, which the responsibilities of part-time farming and full-time employment did not leave time for. 'Old Stormalong' went into retirement until, early in 2000, it was delivered to the workshop of expert restorer Charlie Smith of Northampton (now retired) where over the next year it underwent a thorough restoration under the supervision of Howard Wilcox, well known in the Brough Club for his expertise in all marque-related matters. As well as a full engine rebuild, the restoration included a new fuel tank supplied by Tim Ball of Superior Engineering, plus a new saddle cover and toolbox fronts; these had been obtained, many years previously, from the late Albert Wallis, long-standing and much respected Brough Club member. A small, modern battery was fitted inside an original battery case, and the carburettor body bored out and re-sleeved, dramatically improving the starting, slow running, and fuel consumption. In May 2001, 'Old Stormalong' demonstrated its renewed health and vigour with a run of 123 miles back to Norfolk. Enhancing reliability, a solid-state voltage regulator from A O Services of Watton was fitted in April 2008. A further 9,000-or-so miles had been covered, many of them on Brough Club and VMCC events, by the time the SS100 was sold to the current vendor in 2012. Since then it has been stored in air-conditioned comfort, professionally cared for, and hardly used in the last nine years (the current odometer reading is 11,666 miles).For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

1902 Warwick 6hp Stanhope Four-SeaterRegistration no. BS 8231Chassis no. 8460Engine no. 8460•Possibly the only surviving 6hp Warwick•Restored from 'barn find' condition in the 1990s•Successful London-Brighton Veteran Car Run competitor•Entered in the 2021 London-Brighton VCR No. 71 Footnotes:Like many of its contemporaries, Springfield, Massachusetts-based Warwick could trace its roots back to cycle manufacture in the 19th century. In 1901, the company diversified into motor manufacture, but continued under-capitalisation and fierce competition from mass-producers such as Oldsmobile led inevitably to its demise in 1905. The Warwick Cycle & Automobile Company's first product was a De Dion Bouton-engined Runabout. Early cars had the option of 3½hp or 5hp engines, and in 1902 Warwick announced the Folding Front Seat Stanhope powered by the more powerful 700cc 6hp De Dion Bouton engine.Taken off the road in 1930, this Stanhope arrived in the UK from the USA in 1988 in remarkable 'barn find' condition (photographs taken on its arrival are on file). Most major components were present apart from the gearbox. Its new owner, engineer Roger Egginton, embarked on a painstaking and most comprehensively documented restoration. Having failed to locate an original gearbox, Roger built his own transmission using such photographs as existed for guidance with dimensions taken from the gearbox mountings on the chassis and using suitable available alternatives. The car now has a three-speeds-and-reverse transmission. A later carburettor was fitted during the course of restoration. Over the next few years the Warwick participated in many events including The Light Car Trial in 2004, the Hereford VCC Rally in 2006, and the challenging Hull to Scarborough Rally in 2007. It has also successfully completed the London-Brighton Run twice: in 1996 and 1997. Following Roger Egginton's death, the Warwick remained unused until purchased by the current vendor in 2014. Possibly the only surviving 6hp Warwick, the car is smartly presented in striking red livery with black upholstery and brass fittings; is equipped with appropriate oil lighting and carries a side-mounted spare tyre. It comes complete with a purpose-built PRG trailer; a travel and night storage cover; and a quantity of mechanical spares. The latter includes two De Dion Bouton crankcases (numbers '7570' and '8407') and two cylinders; plus pistons, valves, chains and a replacement gearbox (buyer to collect post auction). Accompanying documentation includes the aforementioned comprehensive restoration records; starting and driving instructions; a Science Museum Dating Certificate; and VCC Dating Certificate No. 2167, issued in 1997.This rare and quick Veteran is offered in ready-to-run condition and, as well as being eligible for all VCC events and the London-Brighton Veteran Car Run, is eligible to participate in De Dion Bouton Club UK events. The Warwick is entered in the 2021 London-Brighton VCR (number '071') and the vendor advises us that a driving familiarisation session will be available to the successful purchaser on Saturday 6th November.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
