1901 Renault 450cc Series E 4-seater TonneauReg. no. A 2743Chassis no. 023Engine no. 4749VCC Dating Certificate  1217Louis Renault built his first car in 1898 utilising a primitive tubular chassis and a propriety De Dion engine. Having secured substantial financial backing production soon started at Billancourt with the 1 3/4 and 3 hp cars. To publicise the cars Louis and his brother Marcel saw the benefits from active participation in early motor races. The Renault voiturettes were highly thought of, with Louis Renault leading a team of four cars in the 1901 Paris-Bordeaux Race. Louis won the voiturette class completing the epic race in a time of 9 hours and 31 minutes with Marcel second and the other two Renaults third and fourth.This early London to Brighton eligible car is unusual in that its complete history is known. It was supplied new by the sole agents for Renault Freres and Mors cars Roadway Autocar Co Ltd in London to Captain Basil Emery of Bulford Wilts and Hunstanton Norfolk. Captain Emery was a decorated career Army Officer and there is a photo on file taken c.1907 of him and his fiancé taken outside Ely Cathedral. The car was acquired in 1920 by a Mr Barnes, a chimney sweep from Reading who used it in his business. It was then acquired in 1927 by the well-known coachbuilders and motor dealers Vincents of Reading, and was in their custody until 1975. There then followed five owners until the current vendors late father acquired the car in 2006.This 1901 example is powered by a 4.5 single cylinder water cooled De Dion engine with automatic inlet and mechanical exhaust valves and features the traditional side radiators characteristic of Renault at that time. The car is running on the correct trembler ignition system and under the bonnet is fitted the De Dion type coil. The gearbox has three forward and a reverse gear. Now fitted with a four, as opposed to the original two, seat bodywork the front carries two plates cast with E Vicart et Fils of Levallois (Seine). The coachwork is presented in green with coach lining and red button upholstery and is fitted with brass sidelamps, an oil rear lamp and a brass horn.As well as being a proven early starter for the London to Brighton Run this historic veteran is also eligible for all VVC rallies including a number of popular single and twin events as well as Renault Frères events in France and is easily transportable. The car is offered with a current V5, an old style buff logbook, a VCC dating certificate and an extensive history file. Usefully there are also notes on the starting procedure as well as suggested driving technique both backwards and forwards.

1959 Citroen AZ 2CVReg. no. 238 XULChassis no. 1912316Engine no. 02636987Citroen’s 2CV requires little introduction – the car designed in the 1930s to get the rural population of France mobile, that went on to be produced in the millions and acquire a fame and significance that far out-stripped its original remit. Perhaps better than any other car, it demonstrates how simplicity and clever engineering and design often trumps over-complication, and that if the function is performed to perfection, then people will come to love the form. Although the basic design of the 2CV remained more or less unchanged throughout its long production run, there were plenty of changes and improvements made over the years, the most significant of which were the series of engine developments that raised power from the original 9bhp. In 1955, the AZ model was introduced, which produced 12bhp from its 425cc engine. This was enough to give a 50mph cruising speed – that is more or less top speed as well, but the 2CV engine was so strong that running at top speed all day was of little concern – indeed, Citroen often tested engines by running them at full throttle, non-stop, for the equivalent distance of the circumference of the earth at the equator.This 1959 2CV AZ was imported from Belgium in 1970. A Belgian-built car, it incorporates some rare parts that were only found on the Belgian-assembled models. Restored in 2008/9, it has been converted to right-hand-drive using original Citroen parts, and the centrifugal clutch has been replaced with a conventional one. Other than that, it is in original specification, with the 425cc engine still thrumming away under the bonnet. During the no-expense-spared restoration, the car was totally stripped and all corrosion eliminated. The vendor preferred to use coach paint with a satin finish for the bodywork, and left the dents and ‘battle scars’ that the car had accumulated over its life; the aim being a totally solid car, not one that looked like it had just left the factory. On the mechanical front, everything was overhauled or replaced where necessary, including the dampers and the braking system. Five new wheels and tyres were fitted, and the engine had new barrels, pistons and carburettor. The result is a comfortable cruising speed of 50, with 50+ mpg. The car also comes with many spares that the vendor has collected over the years, including two spare engines – one a ‘4 stud’ unit of 18bhp, the other a ‘3 stud’ of 12 – and a gearbox. The car also comes with various bills and a V5c.

1912 De Dion Model DHReg. no. BF 9125Chassis no. 34Engine no. 8897cRated: 12 HPAt the end of the 19th century the Comte De Dion, who had been manufacturing steam vehicles for some 20 years, entered into partnership with Mr Bouton. The secret of their success was to design a high revving engine using a cam which allowed the rapid opening and closing of the electrical circuit.   The early engines were air cooled revving to 1800 rpm and were fitted to trikes. The now famous Vis a Vis, of which many examples can be seen on the annual London to Brighton Run, was introduced in 1900. By 1902 De Dion claimed to have more than 30,000 of their engines in use around the world.  The first twin cylinder was introduced in 1903 and by 1906 the vehicles were becoming more conventional with a foot operate clutch and radiator in front of the bonnet, replacing the scuttle mounted one seen previously. By 1909 The Type U (30hp) 4-cylinder had been introduced and then in 1910 the world's first series produced 6107cc V8 engine was unveiled at the Turin Motor Show.The DH model offered here was imported from New Zealand in late 2018 by the vendor’s late father and is offered with all taxes and duties paid. A letter on file from the VCC of GB to aid registration confirms the date as 1912 although it has not been officially dated by them. There is also a dating form from the VCC of NZ dated 1956.Finished with a striking red chassis and body the vehicle is in good condition. A wealth of brass is fitted for the polisher including headlamps and side lights and a magnificent brass horn. The engine is a mono-block 4-cylinder of 1642cc (12hp) and ignition is by Bosch magneto.  Whilst not the fastest of cars De Dions are a historic make from the pioneers of the early days of motoring, with reliable performance and this one would be a welcome addition to the ranks of the VCC subject to an Events Passport or Dating Certificate. In addition, there is a very active De Dion Bouton Club both in the UK and in its home country of France. Th car is offered for sale with a current V5C and some paperwork and old articles from New Zealand.

1936 Austin 10 SherborneReg. no. CEL 584Chassis no. 984256Engine no. 1921060By 1936, the Austin 10 was into its fifth year of production, and in the face of ever-developing competition from the likes of Ford, Hillman and Morris, a new model was introduced. The new six-light Sherborne incorporated some of the streamlined style that was so popular at the time, with the roof line at the rear swooping down without any protrusion for the boot or spare wheel. The rear seat was more spacious than before, and now came with armrests for extra comfort. The front doors now opened forwards – a much safer design. Underneath the new body, the car remained much the same as before mechanically, with the tried-and-tested 1125cc engine continuing to provide sedate, reliable progress, driving through a four-speed gearbox with synchromesh on all but the bottom two ratios.This 1936 Sherborne is said by the vendor – its owner for 14 years - to be possibly the best remaining example; restored to a high standard over the last few years, work has included overhauls of the engine, clutch, steering, brakes and suspension, while the car has also been completely rewired, incorporating flashing indicators. The car has had a full respray, a new headlining and carpets, while the original seats have been kept and repaired. Any woodwork in the body structure requiring attention has been attended to, and this car should now be good for many years to come. The clutch being brand new, is currently a little ‘abrupt’. It comes with a list of the work carried out, an old logbook and a V5C.

1954 Lancia B20 GT CoupeReg. no. 47 ELFChassis no. B20 2991Engine no. B20 3576Released in 1950, the Lancia Aurelia was the first production car with a V6 engine – a result of Lancia’s long-term commitment to the V-engine concept that had first been seen in the Lambda of 1922. Like that ground-breaking car, the Aurelia featured monocoque construction, and was rich with typical Lancia flair for innovation; for example, there was a rear-mounted transaxle which combined the clutch, four-speed gearbox and differential, and the rear brakes were inboard. Radial tyres were fitted as standard – another first for the Aurelia. The suspension was sliding pillar at the front and initially semi-trailing arms at the rear, although this was replaced by an improved De Dion setup for the Fourth Series of 1954. Over the course of its eight years and six series of production, the Aurelia was available in saloon, coupe, spider and convertible configurations, and numerous changes and improvements occurred. Perhaps the most important change was the fitment from 1953 onwards of a 2.4 litre version of the V6, instead of the 1.8 and 2-litre versions of the earlier cars; this gave excellent power and performance by the standards of the time.This 1954 Fourth Series coupe has the desirable De Dion rear suspension and the 2.4 litre engine, plus a floor-mounted gearchange – a factory option instead of the standard column shift. Found via Lancia specialists Omicron for prolific motoring author Anthony Pritchard, by chance it turned out to be the very same car he had owned decades earlier. The body and interior were restored in the USA, then the car returned to the UK where Omicron restored the mechanical components. There are bills in the file relating to the work carried out, including the engine rebuild. The car has since been set up on a rolling road and is said to ‘pull like a train’. The vendor also notes that Formula 1 world champion Mike Hawthorn had an Aurelia to the same specification; a sign of a fine car. The example offered here has recently been featured in ‘Chance Encounter’, a charity film raising money for mobile chemotherapy wards. The car comes with the aforementioned bills, plus a V5C.

1961 Albatross Mk. I Boat and trailerReg. no. n/aChassis no. n/aEngine no. n/aAlbatross Marine operated from 1949 to 1966, specialising in lightweight speedboats made of aluminium. The boats were successful and attracted some very prominent owners from all walks of life – ranging from Prince Philip to Brigitte Bardot, with Stirling Moss also getting his aquatic thrills from an Albatross when not on the racing circuit. Prince Rainier of Monaco, meanwhile, didn’t settle for just one – he had six. Around 1300 were built.This Mk. 1 Albatross would originally have had a marinized Ford Prefect engine, good for a top speed of just over 30mph; there is no engine present at the moment however, making it a blank canvas for the future owner. We are told by our vendor that it is structurally in good condition and with a new interior; it should prove a fun period vessel once suitable motive power is installed.

1927 Daimler 20/70 TourerReg. no. YT 3126Chassis no. Q120/7028708Engine no. LQ20/71690In the 1920s Daimler, along with its future BSA stablemate Lanchester, retained a special position in the British car industry – these cars appealed to those who wanted the quality, refinement and luxury of a Rolls-Royce, but without the ‘Hollywood’ associations that the Derby firm’s cars had started to acquire. Hence Daimlers remained a particular favourite of the British royal family, along with other elements of society who wanted to travel in the best vehicle possible without being seen as too ‘flash’. Such models as the 20/70 epitomised this appeal; they were large, stately and finely crafted, but imposing in a restrained manner – they could certainly not be accused of being flashy or vulgar. Daimler knew its market well - that had stood them in good stead for a long time and would continue to do so.This 1927 20/70 is a fairly rare open car – many Daimlers were formal enclosed limousines or landaulets. In the ownership of one family from 1966 to 2006, it was subject to extensive restoration work in the 1980s, which included the replacement of the original sleeve-valve engine with a 1934 2.7 litre overhead-valve engine from a later 20hp Daimler. This should offer easier maintenance plus improved performance, and was restored in 2012-14, including a new camshaft. It has only done 1700 miles since this photographically documented work. The original engine comes with the car but requires refurbishment. In all other areas the car remains in good condition, and it comes with some bills and a V5c.

1933 Austin 7 four-seater tourerReg. no. AGJ 608Chassis no. B75533Engine no. 172028Another Austin Seven in the sale today – this is a 1933 example, meaning it benefits from several of Austin’s updates that took place in the early 30s. In 1931, the length and rear track were both increased by six inches, making the cars more spacious, and by 1933 a four-speed gearbox was in use, with the luxury of synchromesh on the top two ratios. The 747cc engine, however, remained, meaning low running costs and the sturdy dependability that Austin was so renowned for. Many different bodies were available, both from Austin and external companies such as Swallow and Gordon England.This 1933 four-seat tourer is in excellent condition, having been restored in 2015. Since then, it has been a show-winner at various events – testament to the high standard of the restoration. The work carried out included an engine rebuild by an engineer local to the vendor; as a result, the car is both a show-winner and a car that should be able to be driven with confidence. It comes with a V5C.

1978 Lotus Esprit S1 Type 79 – Chassis no. 31Reg. no. CUI 2004Chassis no. 7801/0310GEngine no. CC7770313629The development of the Esprit started in 1971 when Lotus boss Colin Chapman met with Giorgetto Giugiaro of Italdesign to discuss creating a successor for the Europa. Giugiaro got to work, but Chapman was disappointed with the first ¼ scale model and called an early halt to the work. Undeterred, Giugiaro created a full-sized prototype on a stretched Europa chassis, which was exhibited on the Italdesign stand at the 1972 Turin Motor Show. The positive reception for this vehicle changed Chapman’s mind, and the project was back on. Christened the Esprit, the new car was launched at the Paris Motor Show in October 1975, production starting in June 1976. Giugiaro’s ‘folded paper’ styling was new, but the construction of the car was classic Lotus; a steel backbone chassis sported a fibreglass body, there were disc brakes all round, inboard at the rear, and a 160bhp longitudinally-mounted 2-litre Lotus 907 engine sat behind the passenger compartment, driving the rear wheels through a Citroen-sourced 5-speed manual transaxle. This configuration meant a low weight of around 900kg, plus excellent weight distribution. The result was a car that handled superbly, and S1 Esprits are still viewed by many as having the best steering of any version of the long-running model.This S1 Esprit is in excellent all-round condition; a thorough restoration was completed eight years ago, and since then the car has remained unused. During the restoration, the body was completely removed from the chassis and repainted, and a completely new interior was fitted. The engine was completely rebuilt, a stainless-steel exhaust was fitted, and the brake pipes were renewed. The heater matrix, oil cooler, fuel tanks and wheels were all refurbished. Now, due to the length of time it has been unused, some recommissioning would be wise before road use. It comes with a workshop manual, some photographs, further history and bills, plus an old-style logbook and a current V5C.

1928 Austin 7 ChummyReg. no. SH 3050Chassis no. t.b.a.Engine no. t.b.a.By 1928 Austin’s Seven was going from strength to strength, with improvements made to the Chummy body in 1926 resulting in a more spacious car, while later the same year the brakes were enlarged to 7 inches for greater stopping power. These changes would last until the AE model was introduced in 1929, and in these years the Seven sold extremely well, helping Britain get mobile more than any other car had up to that point.Another Chummy in the sale today, this one is quite different from the ‘oily rag’ 1925 example! This 1928 car has been restored over the course of many years and is now in very good all-round condition. Owned by the vendor for about four years, it benefits from a reconditioned dynamo and magneto, and the flexible driveshaft coupling has been replaced by a Hardy-Spicer coupling. The 747cc engine and 3-speed gearbox are in good order, and this car should provide plenty of enjoyable motoring. It comes with some bills and a V5C.

1955 MG MagnetteReg. no. RXA 953Chassis no. KAE23/12057Engine no. UnknownThe ZA Magnette was launched in 1953. The first MG car to feature monocoque construction, it was designed by Gerald Palmer – from whose pen had also come the Jowett Javelin, a similarly sporty saloon. The new Magnette represented a dramatic change from the distinctly 1930s Y-Type that MG had been producing; it also featured the first use of BMC’s new B-Series engine, in 1.5 litre form with twin SU carburettors. Producing 60bhp, it drove through an also-new four-speed gearbox, enabling a top speed of around 80mph. With standard leather trim and polished wood dashboard and door cappings, the Magnette even came with the luxury of a heater as standard – by no means a given at the time.This 1955 Magnette is offered in need of renovation. The engine runs but is leaking coolant from the water pump. This interesting project comes with a V5C.

1987 Ferrari 328 GTSReg. no. E70 OADChassis no. ZFFWAZ0C000067257Engine no. 0620103Of Maranello’s large stable of prancing horses, the easiest to tame, in the eyes of many Ferrari enthusiasts, is the 328. Those lucky enough to have owned one of these 1980s thoroughbreds usually report that they are easy to live with, superb to drive, and of course, with a screaming mid-mounted V8, they are a true exotic sports car by anyone’s definition. The 328 was a development of the earlier 308, which had been introduced in 1975 and continually improved. The new car was launched in 1985, and shared similar Pininfarina styling to the 308, but with slightly softer lines to bring it into line with 80s tastes. Behind the 2-seater cockpit sat the last iteration of the transversely-mounted, naturally aspirated V8 Dino engine, now enlarged from 3 to 3.2 litres – in the Ferrari nomenclature of the time, the first two digits stood for the capacity, and the last one for the number of cylinders. Power was transmitted through a five-speed gearbox, with the gearstick moving in Ferrari’s iconic metal gate. With four valves per cylinder and Bosch fuel injection, it produced 270bhp – enough to propel the 328 to 60 in 5.5 seconds and on to 166mph. The 328 sold very well, by the standards of a low-volume manufacturer like Ferrari; combined with the 308, over 20,000 of the vehicles were produced. Production ended in 1989, and now 328s are much sought after, with their timeless styling, surprising durability and appreciating values making them a popular purchase in recent times.This 1987 328 GTS is in excellent condition, resplendent in the classic Ferrari combination of red with a cream interior. It was purchased by its current owner on the 23rd December 1994 from Lancaster Garages (Colchester) Ltd, a Ferrari main dealer. The car had been registered abroad new on the 2nd December 1987 and then registered in the UK on the 16th September 1988. The speedometer was changed at this point from km (2,700km) to miles by HR Owen. The current owner bought it when it had 4,390 miles on the clock. The speedometer failed at 5,614 miles and a new one was fitted, the old one comes with the car. The current mileage is a total of approximately 43,000. In 2006 the dampers were changed which stiffened the car for some hill climb and sprint events; this was returned to standard in 2016. It also had a service and cambelts changed at this time (part paperwork available).Running well with a fantastic exhaust note, it has been improved with the addition of full harnesses in addition to the standard seatbelt, an immobiliser and alarm, a shift light, and a CD player – although for many just listening to the engine would be good enough! It is also running with a slight negative camber. With a current V5C and a MOT until September 2021, this fine example of a classic Ferrari is sure to only go up in value, while providing the new owner with all the joys of 328 ownership.

1973 Alfa Romeo Montreal V8 GT CoupeReg. no. VUB 799MChassis no. 1427551Engine no. AR0056450105Often in the automotive industry, concept cars are wild flights of fancy; if they ever make it to production, they are almost invariably watered-down and sanitised. The Alfa Romeo Montreal must be one of the few cases where the opposite is true, and the eventual production car was actually more exotic than the concept. The car’s origins were in the unnamed concept car that Alfa Romeo displayed at Expo 67 in Montreal; this vehicle was built on the chassis of the Giulia Sprint GT, with the 1.6 litre 4-cylinder engine from the Giulia TI. The styling, by Marcello Gandini at Bertone, captured the public imagination and this car became known simply as ‘the Montreal’. Buoyed by the positive reception, Alfa put it into production in 1970 – but this time, instead of the 4-cylinder engine, it featured a 2.6 litre V8, with dry-sump lubrication and fuel injection. This drove through a 5-speed ZF gearbox with a dog-leg first gear, and the 197bhp was kept in check by a limited-slip differential. In the mechanical department, then, it made the initial concept car seem somewhat mundane. Like the concept, however, it shared its chassis and suspension – double wishbones at the front and live axle at the rear – with the Giulia. An expensive car, the Montreal cost over £5,000 when launched in the UK, more than a Jaguar E-Type or Porsche 911, and by the time sales ended in 1977 the price had increased by a further couple of thousand pounds. 3900 Montreals were produced in total, with the chassis and mechanical parts being finished at Alfa Romeo’s factory before being shipped to Bertone for the body, then back to Alfa again for the interior and finishing touches; perhaps more would have been sold if Alfa had adapted the car for the North American market, but this never took place, with most Montreals staying in Europe.This 1973 left-hand-drive Montreal is in good overall condition, having been restored some years ago. It is thought to have covered just 48,000 kilometres. It has been in storage for several years but is now said by our vendor to be running and driving well. The cloth passenger seat needs some repair – but this is a drivers’ car really! This striking 1970s sports car comes with a history file and a current V5C.

1958 Triumph TR3AReg. no. 960 MEVChassis no. TS 38847Engine no. TS 39343EThe Triumph TR3 of 1955 was a development of the TR2, Standard-Triumph’s entry into the sports car market that had replaced the outdated Roadster. Like the TR2, it was a ‘true roadster’ – weather protection was definitely not a priority, and there were no side windows, only clip-on side screens. Inside, there were removable rubber plugs in the floor for those unfortunate occasions where the rain would catch one unawares. But comfort never was the main concern when these sports cars were developed; the TR3 rewarded its drivers in other ways, with responsive handling and excellent performance from the 2-litre 4-cylinder Standard engine, producing 100bhp by the time the facelifted model, often called the TR3A, was introduced in 1957. From 1956, TR3s also came with disc brakes as standard on the front – a first for a UK production car. Robust, rugged and dependable, the TR3 enjoyed great popularity both in the general market – over 58,000 were sold – and in the world of motorsport, where it is still a popular competitor in historic classes.This 1958 TR3A is in good condition mechanically and structurally, with the interior and paintwork fair for their age. Fitted with the desirable optional overdrive unit for more relaxed cruising, it also has wire wheels – another optional extra when new. It also has an uprated starter motor, electric fuel pump and electric fan. It also comes with a spare engine block, a hard top, a soft top and frame, plus side screens and a tonneau cover. All these can be collected from the vendor’s premises by the buyer. It is offered with various bills and records from the current and previous owners, plus a V5C.

This lovely example of the 1,800cc Triumph Roadster is one of only 2,501 built.In recent years this car has formed part of a large collection and as such has received little or no use and an element of recommissioning is to be expected to return it to the road once again. Your inspection pre-sale is welcomed and encouraged to appreciate the potential of this rarely offered motor car which is strictly sold as seen.A landmark model in the history of the Coventry firm, the 1800 Roadster was one of the first post-war designs to bear the Triumph name. Standard was already supplying Jaguar with a 1,776cc overhead-valve engine and four-speed gearbox and these, together with the existing Flying Standard rear axle, were chosen for the new carThe chassis, an all-new design featuring independent front suspension, comprised two large-diameter steel tubes joined by cross-bracesEarly post-war steel shortages meant that the Roadster body (apart from its steel wings) was built from Birmabright aluminium alloy, almost certainly left over from aircraft production. This lightweight and durable bodywork combined with a marine-spec ash frame sat on a reassuringly robust tubular steel chassis that had a high corrosion resistance due to its significant chrome content. Styled by Standard's Frank Callaby, the Roadster's elegant bodywork was unusual in retaining the dickey seat that had been a feature of the pre-war Triumph Dolomite Roadster CoupéThe engine was a 1776cc, 4-cylinder overhead-valve unit, developing 65bhp, and had a lot in common with the engine built by Standard exclusively for the Jaguar SS. A four-speed, right-hand column-change was used, which allowed the middle seat passenger to sit in comfort. Though not a sports car, the Triumph was acceptably fast in its day managing a top speed of around 80 miles per hour and gained its notoriety as the daily transport for 'John Nettles', the Jersey-based detective in the 'Bergerac' television seriesYou can now book a one to one appointment (up to one hour) to view this lot at our central location between 11th and 17th September.

According to Red Triangle's records, (they purchased the assets of Alvis cars when they went bust in the sixties), Barnards produced five examples of my vehicle at that time, building a wooden ash frame and seating and fitting it to an Alvis engine/chassis combination. Much like building a passenger coach but smaller.
