A 1994 Cagiva Mito 125, registration number L601 HKN, frame number 8P-023407, red. Cagiva's miniature superbike has all the style and presence of its larger contemporary, with more than a passing resemblance to the Ducati 916, both designed by Massimo Tamburini. The learner legal 125 had a 30bhp water cooled engine (when de-restricted), a seven speed gearbox to ring out every last ounce of power, Brembo brakes, 40mm upside down forks and handled extremely well. This Mito comes direct from a private collection of Italian motorcycles. The motorcycle is described by our vendor as a restoration project and is only for sale due to other commitments preventing him from carrying out the work. V5C, no MOT or tax See illustration

A 1953 BSA A10 Golden Flash, registration number MBT 639, frame number BA7510504, gold/red. This A10 was originally fitted with a side-car and is registered to its first owner, a Mr Charles Loft from Bempton, Bridlington, Yorkshire.

EXTRA LOT: A 1966 Suzuki T20 Super Six, frame number 21663, engine number 21515, orange. The Super Six received rave reviews when launched in 1965. They had precise handling, good brakes, a 29 bhp two stroke engine, six speed gearbox (a first for a production bike) and a 90mph plus top speed. Many were subsequently converted for racing bikes so original unmodified examples are now how hard to come by. We are advised that this original T20 is at present a non-runner, but it is felt that some recommissioning and servicing should have it up and running or alternatively it would make a great basis for a full restoration. The Suzuki is offered for auction with a VMCC dating certificate and some useful spares, including a centre stand. The new owner will need to register the motorcycle with DVLA. No MOT, tax exempt See illustration

A 1969 Triumph TR25W Trophy, registration number MDM 195G, frame number E010903B255, engine number G012405TR25W, red. Introduced in 1968 the TR25W was an unashamed exercise in badge engineering with the Triumph basically being a BSA B25 Starfire in a new set of clothes. Both bikes followed the fashion for the scrambler look but were not serious off roaders. This previously restored example has formed part of a private collection seeing little use since acquisition, so should only require light re-commissioning before returning to the road. The Triumph will be offered for sale with previous MOTs and receipts. V5C, MOT and tax exempt See illustration

This Chang Jiang comes direct from a private collection and is presented in good condition. The motorcycle offers a close resemblance to a BMW R71, with BMW badging, black coachwork with white pin-striping but is a fraction of the price of an original.

A 1970 BSA B44 Victor Special 441, registration number UDV 141H, frame number CD08117B44VS, engine number CD08117B44VS, yellow. BSA's B44 Victor was the successor to the legendary Gold Star and as such had some big shoes to fill. The majority of production found their way to America where they found success as both a street scrambler and more energetic competition use in scrambles and enduros. This matching numbers example is one of these machines, originally being exported to Florida. Presented in remarkably original condition it still sports the original seat covering which normally deteriorates and is replaced. Our vendor purchased the BSA from a friend in 2004 and imported it shortly afterwards. Since acquiring the BSA he used the motorcycle frequently but in recent times the BSA has lived a more sedate life as other projects have occupied his time. This very original B44 Victor will be offered for sale with accompanying history file including a BSA dating certificate, American purchase receipt, receipts and sundry paperwork.

A 1978 Honda CB550K/Four, registration number YEL 319S, brown.

A FINELY DETAILED 1:200 SCALE WATERLINE MODEL FOR THE HEAVY CRUISER H.M.S. EXETER AS IN FITTED IN 1942, modelled by John R. Haynes with bespoke pre-formed hull with lined decks and minutely observed fittings as appropriate and including main and secondary armament, anti-aircraft guns, fully fitted bridge with binnacles, voice tubes, range finder, communications mast with radio aerials and lanyard, signal flag racks, fitted boats on launches, Supermarine Walrus seaplane, and much other fine detailing, set on a light green-blue base with plate, glazed wooden cover, overall measurements -- 10« x 39 x 8óin. (26 x 99 x 22cm.), Exeter first came into prominence at the battle of the River Plate which ended in the destruction of the German pocket battleship Admiral Graf Spee, in December 1939. Having sustained the full weight of the enemy~s heavy guns until her consorts, Ajax and Achillies, arrived, Exeter scraped through with four of her six 8in. guns out of action and her steering gear smashed. After a lengthy refit, early in 1942 she was in Far Eastern waters under Capt. O.L. Gordon, M.V.O., and, on February 27th she formed one of a force of cruisers and destroyers led by Rear-Admiral K. Doorman of the Royal Netherlands Navy engaged in repelling a Japanese landing in the Dutch East Indies. The Allied forces comprised, beside Exeter, the Dutch cruisers De Ruyter, (flagship) and Java, the Australian cruiser Perth, the U.S. heavy cruiser Houston, and the Dutch destroyer Kortenaer with the British destroyers Electra, Encounter and Jupiter. Not one ship of this unfortunate squadron escaped destruction. The Japanese force comprised the cruisers Nati and Haguaro, two lighter cruisers and about a dozen destroyers. Action was joined at about 4 o~clock in the afternoon, Exeter receiving a hit from an 8in. shell which caused great damage in the boiler room, putting six of her eight boilers out of action and considerably reducing her speed. In these circumstances she had no alternative than to go about for Sourabaya as she could not keep up with her consorts. At Sourabaya she made contact with the U.S. destroyer Pope and was later joined by Encounter, the three ships leaving under cover of night for Australia. For this voyage Exeter~s maximum speed was at first 15 knots, but her engine room staff worked heroically through the night and by morning three more boilers were in use and speed had increased to 26 knots. Her plight was still very grave, however, as she had expended four-fifths of her 8in. gun ammunition in the recent action and was in no condition to fight a prolonged engagement. At 9.35 on the morning of March 1st the ships ran into three Japanese cruisers and some four or five destroyers and Exeter sent out a wireless message that she was about to engage the enemy. Despite the odds the battered cruiser fought well for over two hours after which time, at just before noon, she was sunk by her crew. Her boilers had been wrecked and all her ammunition expended before she sank. The loss on board the Exeter in both actions amounted to 54 officers and men killed. The survivors were taken prisoner by the Japanese and no less than 152 of them died in captivity. Capt. Gordon, who was released at the conclusion of hostilities, had preserved his records of the action in a tube of shaving cream. The destroyer Encounter sank shortly after the cruiser, but Pope, which scored a hit on a cruiser, ran into a rain squall and was not located for more than a hour, at the end of which time she was attacked and sunk by Japanese bombers.

A DETAILED 32FT:1IN SCALE MODEL OF THE LEYLAND LINE PASSENGER/CARGO SHIP CALIFORNIAN [1902], modelled by R.A. Wilson with masts, derricks and rigging, anchors, winch, bollards, ventilators, deck rails, deck winches, hatches, superstructure with wheelhouse with open bridge over with awning stanchions, stayed funnel with safety valve extension pipes, engine room lights, aft deck house and six lifeboats with thwarts in davits, finished in red and black with white upperworks and natural wood decks and mounted on two turned brass columns, glazed case -- 6ó x 19¬in. (17.2 x 49cm.), carrying box, Californian was thought to be the mystery ship that slept whilst Titanic sank about ten miles away on the horizon. Although this was never proven, Captain Stanley Lord (1877-1962) - known as ~Lord of the Californian~ never recovered his reputation and was dismissed from Leyland Line in August 1912, spending the rest of his life trying to clear his name. Interestingly the deathbed confession in 1965 of a Norwegian seal smuggler called Hendrik Ness seems to confirm Lord~s story. When their ship, the S.S. Smansun, lying 4-5 miles off Titanic with a hold full of contraband, saw the first distress rockets fired they extinguished all lights and effectively disappeared - they were not fitted with wireless and Captain and crew agreed a pact of silence when they learned the shocking news in Iceland. Californian, registered at 6, 223 tons - about 40, 000 less than Titanic - was torpedoed on 9th November 1915 by U-34 61 miles southwest of Cape Matapan in passage between Salonica and Marseilles in ballast.

A DOCKYARD HALF MODEL FOR THE MODIFIED 'CONSTANCE' CLASS 50-GUN FRIGATE PHAETON, BY JOSEPH WHITE, COWES, CIRCA 1845, planked and pinned in boxwood with contrasting ebonised and white topsides pierced with gun ports, gilt decoration to quarter lights and cat head, chain plates with deadeyes and partially framed interior -- 54« x 11in. (138.5 x 28cm.) overall; together with the dockyard ink and paper profile plan and specification for Phaeton (repaired tear, old wear) -- 17 x 39in. (43 x 99cm.); and three steam conversion proposal drawings comprising a profile, stern view and hull form delineated in ink on linen with principal dimensions listed lower left (titles and inscription to top faded) -- 21 x 71in. (53.5 x 180.5cm.); and tinted ink and watercolour profiles of the principal armament and engine arrangements on conjoined paper sheets -- 13 x 56«in. (33 x 143.5cm.) (4), Provenance: R. & J. White, Cowes, and thence by descent. , Although designed by White, this ship was actually built at the Deptford Dockyard; as the model and profile remained with the White family, it suggests it was made as part of the early design process and not after completion. Phaeton was a 184ft frigate of 1, 942 tons burthen, manned by 500 men and armed with 40 x 23pdr plus 10 x 8in. guns. Launched in November, 1848 she was converted to steam in 1859 at Sheerness DY by James Watt & Co. and broken up in 1875. White~s steam conversion plans differ from what Watt & Co produced so these are presumably rejected proposal plans.

(53 x 178cm.), The steel screw cargo steamer Knottingley was built by John Crown & Sons Ltd at Sunderland and completed in June 1907. Ordered for the Wetherall Steamship Company, she was surveyed and registered at Goole at 824 tons gross (417 net) and measured 195 feet in length with a 32«ft beam. Powered by a triple-expansion 3-cylinder engine made by the North Eastern Marine Engineering Co., also of Sunderland, she gave her first owners nine years~ reliable service before being sold to the Cambo Shipping Co. of Cardiff in 1916. Resold to Davidson~s of Aberdeen in 1922, she was sold yet again the following year to the Antwerp Shipping & Bunkering Co. who renamed her Brabo. In 1926, her Belgian owners sold her to the Brabo Steamship Co. of Goole - perhaps an associated company - and she was renamed Lulonga. The next year (1927), her owners changed their name to the Hook Steamship Co. and whilst still sailing under their colours, she was torpedoed and sunk by a German E-boat 15 miles south of Shoreham on 26th July, 1940 whilst on passage from Goole to Shoreham in ballast; fortunately only one crew member lost his life.

(42 x 164cm.), Built for Charles D. Rudd, Mingary measured 187« x 27ft with a near 15ft draught. An attractive vessel as one might expect from Watson~s, she was launched in May 1899 and delivered that August. Fitted with twin raked masts, her triple expansion engine was supplied by Dunsmuir & Jackson of Glasgow which developed 123nhp giving a respectable 13 knots from a single screw. Hired by the Royal Navy in 1915, she was armed with single 13-pdr and 6-pdr guns and served in the auxiliary patrol service, being used after the Battle of Jutland to sweep for survivors. It was during this service she was badly holed and limped to Rosyth harbour where she sank at her moorings. Raised in March 1919 she was sold to the Egypt & Levant S.S. Co. who converted her for commercial service. Sold again in 1924 to Turkish owners who renamed her Sevintch, she was sunk on the 26th December 1927 in a collision with the S.S. Marmara off Boz Burnu.
