1983 Rover SD1 3500 SE- Fitted with a KAT body kit - Much sought after 3500 V8 mated to an automatic gearbox- Credible 91,880 milesAwarded the prestigious accolade of "European Car of the Year" at its launch in 1976, the Rover SD1 was the first vehicle to come out of the newly formed Special Division of British Leyland (hence SD1). The ground breaking hatchback, with design cues from the Ferrari Daytona and clever product placement by the marketing team, with appearances in The Professionals and The New Avengers, made the SD1 an instant hit with company executives. With order books filling up right from the off. Finished in White matched to a Brown interior 'A28 HAD' is fitted with a KAT body kit which it is understood to have retained for many years and is a much sought after 3500 V8 mated to an automatic gearbox. It's understood the engine was replaced in 1991 and currently displays a credible 91,880 miles. The vendor currently rates the paintwork and bodywork as 'Good' however informs us the SD1 has not been run for some time and the fuel pump has a fault.
1956 Lamborghini DL30- Restored by Colin Clarke of Lamborghini specialists Colin Clarke Engineering- NOVA declared, minimal use since completion including display at Goodwood Revival- Supplied new by Beninca, twin-cylinder 1810cc engine, 4 speed manual plus reverseFerruccio Lamborghini launched Lamborghini Trattori in 1948, his early tractors utilising war surplus truck and military vehicle engines and differentials as their basis. Within a few years production had increased to 200 units a year whilst Italian-made engines replaced the dwindling supplies of war era stock. The twin-cylinder DL30 became available in 1952, featuring an OHV 26hp engine displacing some 1810cc driving through a four-speed manual gearbox with reverse gear.Acquired and restored in 2014 by renowned Lamborghini specialists Colin Clarke Engineering, the example offered here was originally supplied by Beninca, whose supplier's plate it retains to this day. Described as being in "excellent" condition regarding its bodywork, engine, electrics, paintwork and gearbox, this delightful tractor is in full running order and was recently displayed at both Goodwood Revival and St John's Wood Show. NOVA registered and complete with its old Italian registration document, it has covered a minimal mileage since completion and would grace any collection or be ideal for the show circuit.
1962 Triumph TR3B- 1 of just 3,331 of the final batch of TR3's- Subject to a sympathetic and detailed restoration- Converted to righthand driveThe TR3Bs were the final batch of 3,331 TR3s built solely for the American market in 1962. The first 500 TSF series examples were equipped with the 1991cc engine mated to the all-synchromesh gearbox of the TR4, while the ensuing TCF series versions featured both the 2138cc engine and TR4 gearbox. The sale car is a TSF model that was repatriated from the USA in 1993, upon which it was treated to a sympathetic and detailed restoration, including conversion to righthand drive. Ill health has prevented any subsequent use of the car, meaning the next keeper will be the first name on the V5 and all NOVA documents are in place for the vehicle to be UK registered. The vendor rates the bodywork, interior trim, engine and transmission as 'excellent' and the paintwork as 'very good', and is offering this lovely TR with Heritage Certificate and MOT, plus history including photos of the restoration.
1980 Land Rover 109 Stage One V8- Ultra rare series 3 stage one V8- Been treated to £4500 of refurbishment- Fitted with parbolic springs and said to be soild and reliable Niche models generally have added attraction for collectors and it's no surprise they appear to be hanging on to Series III Stage One V8 long wheelbase Land Rovers, only just over 100 of which are thought to remain road legal. The unmolested, matching numbers example offered is finished in White matched to Black vinyl interior trim and tilt. Prior to the vendor's purchase from a Milton Keynes policeman in 2012, it benefited for a fresh camshaft and timing chain, and has since been treated to £4500 of refurbishment that included new hubs, master cylinder and parabolic springs. No lover of 'trailer queens', the vendor classes 'GOX 548W' as 'solid and reliable' and regards the bodywork, paintwork, interior trim, V8 engine and fourwheel-drive transmission as all being in 'good' order. With Land Rover itself offering a brand new V8 Defender in celebration of its 70th anniversary, 'GOX 548W' is a topical offering.
1951 Chevrolet 3100 Pickup- Imported to the UK from Florida in 2015 - 5.4-litre small block Chevy V8 engine was reconditioned c.8,000 miles ago- Electric seats, electric windows and air conditioningThis delightful lefthand drive truck was imported to the UK from Florida in 2015 and has clearly been the subject of a major restoration and customisation programme. It is equipped with coil over suspension at the front, plus power steering and brakes - the brakes and rear axle were all sourced from a `74 Chevrolet Nova. The 327ci (5.36-litre) small block Chevy V8 engine was reconditioned c.8,000 miles ago and is said to give good oil pressure. It is equipped with Edelbrock manifold and 4-barrel carburettor, plus electronic ignition. The pickup's specification nowadays includes electric Chrysler 300 seats, electric windows, air conditioning, electric wipers, rear mounted fuel tank and battery, and a removable tow bar. The eye-catching ensemble rides on Corvette slotted mag wheels and is finished in a deep shade of Red complemented by Black interior trim. Chevrolet's 3100 model was a member of its so-called Advance-Design series that ran from 1947 to 1955.
1940 Studebaker Champion Coupe- Reportedly resident in Portugal from new until 2015- Understood to have professional " nut and bolt " restoration - Engine,gearbox,bodywork,paintwork,interior and electrical descrivbed as excellent By the late 1930s Studebaker's sales were in sharp decline but rather than cut costs the management gambled everything on a clean sheet design. Launched in April 1939, the resultant Champion was the lightest car in its class. The Indiana-based company's engineers had acquired models from four domestic and four foreign competitors and meticulously stripped them to see where weight could be saved. Equipped with a 2700cc straight-six engine, manual transmission, independent front suspension and hydraulic drum brakes, the Champion could reputedly return almost 33mpg (a figure no rival could match). The first Studebaker to be penned by Raymond Loewy's renowned industrial design studio, initial variants comprised a four-door Cruising Sedan, two-door Club Sedan or three-passenger Coupe. Stealing a march on America's `Big Three' manufacturers, the Champion returned Studebaker to profitability.Finished in Tan with Tan / Brown upholstery, this left-hand drive example is described by the vendor as `excellent' with regard to its engine, gearbox, bodywork, paintwork, electrical equipment and interior trim. Reportedly resident in Portugal from new until being imported to the UK in 2015-16, the Studebaker is further understood to have been treated to a professional `nut and bolt' restoration and to `drive superbly'. A decidedly rare sight on British roads, it is worthy of close inspection.
1970 Jaguar E-Type 4.2 2+2- Delivered new to a Mr F A Croshas of Staffordshire by P J Evans of Birmingham- 88,500 miles from new- Offered with original owners' manual and service bookJaguar's now immortal E-Type made its debut at the Geneva Motor Show of 1961. Like the XK 120 before it, the newcomer was the fastest production car of its time - its 3.8-litre straight six engine allowing a 0-60mph acceleration time of just over seven seconds and a top speed of 150 mph. The model underwent its first major surgery in 1966 when, feeling there needed to be a version in which customers' children could share the E-Type experience, Jaguar introduced the 2+2 Fixed Head Coupe (known as the XKE in America, where most examples were sold). A rear bench seat was accommodated by increasing the wheelbase by nine inches and adding two inches to the roofline. The airy 2+2 however benefited from the same fully independent suspension, rack and pinion steering and disc brakes as its two-seat sibling. By now, the E-Type range was powered by a 4.2-litre version of the company's ubiquitous DOHC, straight-six engine, which developed 265bhp and 283 lb ft of torque. The first E-type model to be offered with automatic transmission, the 2+2 was in production for a total of five years, during which time some 5,599 Series 1 and 5,326 Series 2 examples were built.According to the accompanying Heritage Certificate, this home market Series 2 model vacated the factory on October 23, 1969 and was delivered to its first owner, a Mr F A Croshas of Tamworth, Staffs, by the dealer P J Evans of Birmingham. It was finished in Cream and trimmed in Black-piped White leather. A matching numbers car, its bodywork is still Cream in colour, but in recent times has been treated to a new Black interior and overhaul of its DOHC 4.2-litre XK engine. Currently registering 88,500 miles from new, the Jaguar comes complete with original owners' manual and service book.
1954 Triumph TR2Triumph's TR Series began with the unveiling of a prototype at the 1952 London Motorshow. It was built around the chassis of the pre-war Flying Nine, the suspension from the Mayflower and the engine out of the Vanguard. Trials showed it to handle poorly, however, and the design was not progressed - the improved TR2 being launched the following year instead. Motor magazine's road test of a TR2 in 1954 achieved 11.9 seconds for the 0-60mph sprint and an ultimate speed of over 107mph. The publication apparently commented that the Triumph was 'the lowest-priced British car able to exceed the magic 100mph barrier'. The test vehicle concerned was priced at £900 with taxes, and included £56 for the optional overdrive. The model was a success for Triumph, who achieved their aim of making a two-seater Roadster of appeal to the American market. A total of 8,628 TR2s were built, just 2,823 of which were for the home market.This exceedingly handsome original 'home market' example was first registered in November 1954 and is one of the later 'short door' versions. The car has had just four owners since 1970 and was acquired by the last keeper some 10 years ago. It has just emerged from a decade-long body-off 'nut-and-bolt' restoration, during which it was treated to many replacement body panels and new: front disc brakes and 60-spoke powder-coated wire wheels; brightwork; front and rear lights; windscreen; tonneau cover; Red leather upholstery and carpets; and Moto-Lita steering wheel. The vendor regards the TR as 'being restored to a very high standard, with an as-new interior and detailed engine bay'. He is now offering it with extensive history file including photographic record of the restoration, TR Register correspondence, and old-style green logbook dating from 1970. A splendid specimen of an increasingly sought-after model.
1961 Austin-Healey Frogeye' Sprite- Described by vendor as excellent all round- Original chassis and engine- MOT till Aug 2018- In running order- History file including old MOT's and receiptsThe first generation Sprite was launched in Monte Carlo immediately prior to the 1958 Monaco Grand Prix and, thanks to its prominent bonnet-mounted headlights, quickly became known as the 'Frogeye' - a moniker that has stuck to this day. It's impossible not to smile at the sight of one, and this very original-looking 1961 example certainly looks capable of giving many years of happy motoring to its next keeper. Finished in arguably the best colour combination of White bodywork and Red interior trim, '788 JBJ' was restored in 2003 but retains its original chassis and 948cc A Series engine. It has apparently only had four owners from new and is presently regarded by the vendor as featuring 'excellent' bodywork, leather interior trim, paintwork, engine and manual gearbox. He is now offering it complete with comprehensive history file comprising lots of invoices and old MOTs, plus one valid until August 4th. How could you resist?
1961 Lamborghini 2R FL3- Full restoration by Ermes and Nicola Formilan- 3 cylinder engine- PTO and pick up hitch- Italian logbook and NOVA declaration- In good running orderMention Lamborghini and most enthusiasts will conjure up images of a Miura or Countach or maybe the more contemporary Gallardo or Huracßn, but the fact is Ferruccio Lamborghini's successful tractor empire preceded his supercar one by no less than 15 years, and it was reputedly only an argument with Enzo Ferrari over a faulty clutch in his Ferrari 250 GT that prompted Signore Lamborghini to embrace cars as well as farm vehicles. The perfect stablemate for your Gallardo is surely therefore this gorgeous 1961 2R FL3. Finished in the strident livery of Blue and Orange, it is powered by a 36bhp three-cylinder engine of 2193cc and comes complete with PTO and pick up hitch, as well as its Italian log book and NOVA declaration. This splendid-looking beast has only just emerged from a thorough 'nut-and-bolt' restoration that was performed by renowned Italian vehicle specialists Ermes & Nicola Formilan. Sensational!
1978 Fiat 124 Spider- Recent professional respray in original colour- New soft top- Blue tooth and hands free facilityFiat's handsome 2+2 124 Sport Spider made its debut at the 1966 Turin Motorshow. The Ferrari 275 GTS-esque newcomer was styled and manufactured by Pininfarina and based on a shortened version of the popular 124 Saloon platform. Targeted at the American market, the newcomer was powered by a belt-driven DOHC version of the Saloon's four-cylinder pushrod unit, complete with alloy crossflow head. Initially 1,438cc in size, it grew in stages over 20 years to 1,995cc, taking the power output from 89bhp to 104bhp respectively (133bhp in the case of the 1,995cc turbo engine). The engine drove through either an all synchromesh five-speed manual gearbox or a General Motors three-speed automatic unit. Suspension was independent at the front by wishbones and coil springs, and by live axle, Panhard rod and coil springs at the rear. Braking was powerful courtesy of discs all-round and the steering was initially by worm and roller, but eventually rack and pinion. The model line finally ceased in 1985 after almost 200,000 Spiders had been produced - 75 per cent of which were destined for the American market.The lefthand drive sale car was one of the 75 percent and spent all its life in the US until recently, when it proved to be the perfect basis for a major refurbishment project. Now fully UK registered, it was completely stripped before being professionally resprayed in its original livery of Ferrari Rosso Corsa. The Spider is trimmed in Black and sports a new Black soft top that was selected to tone in with its refurbished dashboard. This particular example is powered by the 1,756cc twin-cam engine that was standard fit between 1974 and 1978. Only recently serviced and MOT'd, the Fiat is said to 'drive and hold the road well' and comes complete with new Bluetooth Pioneer radio with hands free phone facility.
1984 Alfa Romeo Spider 2.0 S3- Top end engine overhaul in 2013- Recent respray plus new carpets and hood- Imported from the rust-free environment of Las Vegas For those of a certain age, the immortal Alfa Spider inevitably conjures up images of the hit romantic comedy film The Graduate, starring Dustin Hoffman and Anne Banks. The lefthand drive example on offer hails from 1984 and is a third generation car finished in Cream with complementary Black hood and interior trim. It resided in the rust-free environment of Las Vegas until very recently and its (Bosch) fuel-injected 2.0-litre engine was treated to a top end overhaul back in 2013, while since arriving on these shores the Alfa has benefited from a full respray in its original colour plus new brake pads, speedometer cable, seats, door cards, carpets and hood. It now wears the UK registration 'A337 BKU' and is MOT'd into August of this year. Series 3 Spiders are instantly recognisable for their rubber tipped bumpers and soft rubber rear spoiler.
1989 Porsche 911 Carrera 3.2 Speedster PLEASE NOTE: We have been contacted by David Titchener to say that he bought this lot new from Dick Lovett of Swindon and had it registered as 'THE 89S' (The '89 Speedster) PLEASE NOTE: We have been informed by the vendor's family that this lot retains its original front tyres. Apparently, the rear tyres were only replaced in April 2012 because of a nasty cut to the nearside one. They believe that the presence of the original front tyres lends further credibility to the odometer reading of 17,500 miles. PLEASE NOTE: This lot is now registered with the DVLA under the number plate 'G542 TTV' - 1 of just 64 UK-supplied (C16 specification) examples - Factory-fitted with 'Turbo look' bodywork and electrically adjustable sports seats - 17,500 recorded miles, original Blaupunkt Toronto stereo, tyre compressor and tool kit Given the 356 Speedster's cult status, it seems amazing that Porsche took twenty-five years to launch a similarly minimalist drop-top 911. Brainchild of Peter Schutz and Helmuth Bott (the company's then President and Technical Director respectively), the Carrera 3.2 Speedster was visually distinguished from its Cabriolet sibling by a bespoke, more steeply raked aluminium-framed windscreen, simplified hood hidden beneath a distinctive `double hump' moulded polyurethane tonneau cover, lower slung sports seats and frameless side windows. The work of in-house stylist Tony Lapine, its distinctive lines were enhanced still further by the option of `Turbo-look' bodywork (which also entailed uprated suspension and brake components). A strict two-seater unlike the rest of the 911 range, it was powered by a 3164cc flat-six engine allied to the preferred G50 five-speed manual transmission. Living up to its name, the Speedster was capable of 0-60mph in 6 seconds and 152mph. Although previewed as a concept car at the 1987 Frankfurt Motor Show, the model did not enter production until January 1989. Notable as the last 911 variant to be derived from the same basic bodyshell as the 1963 original, the Carrera 3.2 Speedster was also the final 911 to be assembled at the old Zuffenhausen factory. Known internally as Option M503, the last of 2,104 examples rolled off the production line during July 1989. All but 171 customers specified the more dramatic `Turbo-look' bodywork with America and Germany proving the biggest markets. Of the 129 right-hand drive Speedsters made, just 64 were to UK `C16' specification. Embracing the less is more philosophy, Porsche charged a not insubstantial premium for the Speedster despite terming its roof a `rain hat' and demanding that original purchasers sign a disclaimer as to water and wind ingress! One of the sixty-four UK cars, chassis WPOZZZ91ZKS151277 was built to the following specification: Impact absorbers front and rear (058), Blaupunkt Toronto Radio Cassette player (330), Sports seat left, electric height adjustment (383), Sports seat right, electric height adjustment (387), Front and rear spoiler delete - i.e. none fitted (470), Turbo-look bodywork (491), Amplifier (494), Luggage compartment velour carpet (975), Guards Red paint (L80K) and Cashmere Beige upholstery (LC). First road registered as `THE 89S' on August 1st 1989, it had had three previous keepers prior to entering the current ownership twenty years ago the last of whom was Christopher Nowicki of Loughborough. Although, the vendor's ill health means that the low recorded mileage of 17,500 cannot be warranted, it certainly appears correct. Factory stickers are still present in the door jamb and under the luggage compartment lid. Pleasingly retaining its original engine and running well during our recent photography visit, we could not discern any sign of previous accident damage or repair. Maintained in-house by the owner's ex-Holbay mechanic, the Speedster still carries its original space saver spare wheel (with unused Vredstein tyre), Porsche plug-in air compressor, jack, tool roll and Blaupunkt stereo (complete with instructions). Issued with an `advisory free' MOT certificate which runs until January 2nd 2019, the two-seater is currently undergoing a cherished number plate transfer. Rare, desirable and coming to market for the first time since 1998, this seemingly low mileage `C16' Speedster is worthy of close inspection.
1970 Mercedes-Benz 280 SL- Desirable 280 SL with automatic transmission- Recent attention has included a re-spray and engine overhaul- Offered with both hard and soft tops, service book plus M-B dating documentMercedes have been producing an SL (Sport Leicht) model or range of models since 1954 when the landmark 300SL was unveiled. The similarly styled, but mechanically unrelated, 190 followed in 1955, completing the first generation of cars. Their successor was the W113 series. The last of the line, the 280 SL, was launched in 1968. Blessed with the same effortlessly elegant Paul Bracq styling as its earlier siblings, it was powered by a new seven bearing crankshaft 2,781cc straight-six engine that developed 170bhp and 180lb ft of torque. The SL was equipped with all-round independent suspension - double wishbones and coil springs at the front and coil sprung swing axles at the rear. Braking was by power assisted on all corners and steering was by recirculating ball. The car's 'square' track gave notably sure-footed handling. Able to blur the divide between city streets and open roads with ease, the majority of 280 SLs were specified with four-speed automatic gearboxes and power assisted steering. Some 23,885 were made by the time production ceased in 1971, virtually half of which were exported to the USA. This popular W113 series of cars was replaced by the all new and substantially heavier R107 350SL/450SL range.The 280 SL on offer is a lefthand drive, automatic transmission 1970 example finished in the appealing combination of Silver bodywork and Black upholstery. Apparently supplied new to the US market, it was imported into the UK in 1990. Recent attention has included a body respray, engine overhaul and the installation of a period radio at the cost of £390. `H990 EGU' is now being sold complete with hard and soft tops, service book, Mercedes-Benz dating document, collection of invoices, and an MOT valid into February next year. A chance to acquire a matching chassis and engine number example of the most desirable of all 113 series SLs.
1989 Ferrari Mondial T Convertible- 63,500 miles from new- Last serviced with Terry Keys motorsport in 2015- Offered with its original tool kit, leather wallet, handbooks and service bookThe so-called T was the final iteration of Ferrari's mid-engined Mondial model range produced from 1980 to 1993 and differed markedly from its earlier siblings both inside and out. The T referred to the re-positioned drivetrain that, as per Ferrari F1 cars of the period, featured the engine mounted longitudinally driving through a transversely positioned transmission. This set the pattern for the marque's mid-engine V8 cars for years to come and endowed the T with far superior handling to previous Mondials, whose engines were mounted higher up and across the frame. For ease of maintenance, the revised drivetrain was fixed to a removable subframe. Other Ferrari firsts embodied in the Mondial T included power-assisted steering, three-position electronically controlled suspension and ABS as standard equipment. Power was provided by a dry-sump V8 unit of 3.4-litres developing 300bhp - sufficient to cover the 0-60mph sprint in 5.6 seconds. Production ran for just over four years during which 1010 Cabriolet versions were built, just 53 of which were right-hand drive. We are delighted to offer this notably original and unmolested right-hand drive manual transmission example, finished in the classic combination of Rosso Corsa with Cream leather interior. Offered with its original tool kit, leather wallet, handbooks and service book plus a collection of invoices, H410 NTF has covered come 63,500 miles from new and was last serviced with Terry Keys motorsport in 2015. More recently attention has been paid to the electric windows. The vendor currently rates the engine, gearbox, interior, paintwork and bodywork as all being in 'good' condition. A striking example, it is offered with a current MOT into February 2018.
1982 Porsche 911 SC Targa- Porsche certificate of authenticity - Original tool kit and period sale brochures- Displaying a mileage of 91,915Extraordinary as it may now seem, by the time Porsche launched the SC in 1977, the 911 line was supposed to be in its death throes and soon to be replaced by the vastly different 928, but won a last minute reprieve - a decision enthusiasts have celebrated ever since.The newcomer featured an engine of rather different construction, size and character. The crankcase was now of aluminium rather than magnesium, and the crankshaft stronger and equipped with larger bearings. The fan had fewer blades in order to reduce noise and, more fundamentally, the capacity had risen from 2687 to 2994cc. The unit was fed by Bosch K-Jetronic fuel injection and mated to the 915 series five-speed gearbox. Servo brakes were standard. The power output of the early SC's was actually 20 horsepower down on that of its predecessor (180 as opposed to 200bhp). However, new camshafts endowed the unit with a higher, flatter torque curve that made the car easier to drive and virtually as quick overall. Nevertheless, the output was increased to 188bhp in 1979 and 204bhp in 1981. The additional specification of the £1,500 optional 'Sport' package included: front air dam; large rear wing; forged Fuchs alloy wheels rims - 6in front/7in rear; gas-filled dampers; Recaro seats; Blaupunkt stereo/radio cassette and electric aerial.The smartly-presented Sport Targa offered here is finished in Silver teamed with half-leather Blue/Grey interior trim. It has benefited from a service and new clutch within the last 100 miles and comes complete with Porsche Certificate of Authenticity, pair of keys, plus its original tool kit and sales brochures. It has apparently never been restored and currently displays a total mileage of 91,915 and, though at one stage declared a Cat C stolen / recovered, the Vendor informs us the 911 has been 'extensively looked over and all the panels appear original and in good order'.
1975 Jaguar XK140 Evocation- Unique Autotune Aristocat which has been further enhanced by the vendor- Recently treated to a quality re-spray- 4.2-litre Jaguar XK engine mated to a four-speed manual gearbox'XK2 545' is a unique Jaguar XK140 Evocation based on Autotune's Aristocat kit and further enhanced by the vendor. Finished in Red allied to a sumptuous Red-piped Black interior, the car was originally built by a Captain Jim Roberts and correctly registered by Autotune. Roberts regularly used the car open-topped until removing it from the road to recondition the engine, change the transmission from automatic to manual, install twin alloy fuel tanks etc. However, in the middle of the process his job took him abroad and the Jaguar lay untouched for some five years until rescued by the vendor. He subsequently invested two years extensively modifying and generally improving the car. He treated it to a quality respray after modifying every bodywork panel; fitted a curved windscreen, quarter-lights and wind-up windows; and installed a bespoke interior, new lights, rechromed bumpers, and custom-made copper exhaust system. In common with the original keeper, he took a 'no-expense-spared' approach to the project, as the intention was to keep it indefinitely. However, his circumstances changed and somebody else will now benefit from the time and money that have been lavished on the car - the bodywork, paintwork, interior trim, 4.2-litre XK engine, and four-speed manual gearbox of which he now regards as all being in 'excellent' condition. Designed by Autotune of Rishton, Lancs., the Aristocat was an Evocation 'within the spirit of' the Jaguar XK140, and employed the running gear from a donor XJ6 or XJS housed within a purpose-designed steel spaceframe chassis. Created to suit a range of budgets, it could be built using as much as 80 percent of the donor car components, even including the seats and dashboard. Utilising unmodified XJ suspension resulted in the Evocation being a more practical five inches wider than an XK120 or 140, but only and inch more than the XK150.
1958 Mercedes-Benz 190 SL- Simply stunning left-hand drive example- Delivered new to the USA and offered with both hard and soft tops- Subject to an extensive restoration by its long-term keeper before his deathThe 190SL was introduced in 1955, the year Mercedes-Benz swept all before it on the Mille Miglia with the 300SLR, the graceful new two-door convertible grand tourer being sold alongside the road-going version of the SLR, the 300SL, whose styling it strongly resembled. In fact, the underpinnings of the two cars were quite different and, while the 300SL had a purpose-built tubular spaceframe (W198), its smaller sibling was built on a shortened version of the 'Ponton' saloon (W121) platform, which was of a monocoque construction. The 190SL also boasted an all-new engine, an over-square SOHC straight-four unit of 1897cc that produced some 105bhp, sufficient to propel the car to a maximum speed of 112mph. The engine was coupled to a four-speed manual gearbox operated by a lever between the seats. The suspension comprised double wishbones and coil springs at the front and a coil-sprung swing axle at the rear. Steering was by recirculating ball and braking by power-assisted drums all round.Built to the highest standards and among the quickest comparable cars of the time, the 190SL featured a well-appointed cockpit, notably comfortable for its occupants with relatively generous luggage space. Under the circumstances, even the steep asking price did nothing to deter purchasers. The convertible could be ordered with or without a removable hard top. There was also the option of a third seat that was placed transversely behind the front ones and big enough to carry an adult. The 190SL continued in production until 1963, when both it and the 300SL were replaced by the Pagoda. By this time over 25,000 190SLs had been built. This simply stunning left-hand drive example has Black bodywork matched to a Red hide interior. Having vacated the Stuttgart production line, it is understood to have been delivered new to the USA and has recently found its way back across the Atlantic to the UK. We are informed it received an extensive restoration by its long-term US keeper before his death. The vendor currently rates the bodywork, paintwork, interior trim, four-cylinder engine and all-synchromesh transmission as all being in 'excellent' condition. Offered with duties paid and NOVA document, this handsome Mercedes is now ready to be UK registered.
1973 Iso Fidia- One of only 16 RHD produced- Original UK car- Engine and transmission described as excellent by vendorThe striking Giorgetto Giugiaro-penned Fidia was the only four-door model produced by Iso Automoveicoli SpA, 192 of which were manufactured between 1967 and 1975. The sales material carried the slogan 'le quattro poltrone piu veloce del mondo' - 'the four fastest seats in the world'. The luxurious interior was notable for its polished wood and hand-stitched leather, but high development costs pushed the purchase price above that of a contemporaneous Rolls-Royce. Not that this deterred the rich and famous - the second example was purchased by John Lennon. Early versions were powered by 5.4-litre Chevrolet powerplants, and later ones by Ford 5.7-litre units driving through ZF manual transmissions or Ford 'Cruise-O-Matic' automatic gearboxes.Only 16 Fidias were reputedly equipped with righthand drive, of which seven were Ford powered and few remain, making the sale car rare by any standards. Finished in the stylish combination of Mid Metallic Blue bodywork and Champagne-coloured hide interior trim, 'SVX 895M' was manufactured in July 1973 with the additional options of a large capacity sump, oil cooler, electronic ignition, power steering, automatic transmission, Michelin tyres, seat belts and electric sunroof. It was imported into the UK by Lancia dealers Wood and Krailing. Among its four previous keepers are the importing dealership and Chris Lackner, the UK President of the Iso & Bizzarrini Owners' Club. Now displaying some 54,000 miles, the Fidia has been treated to several desirable upgrades in recent years, including the substitution of alloy cylinder heads and the later Ford AOD automatic transmission, while the suspension has been overhauled and vented brake discs installed. This rare, rapid and sumptuous GT car is currently viewed by the vendor as having 'excellent' engine and transmission and 'very good' bodywork, paintwork and interior trim, and is now offered complete with quality McIntosh sound system, Nardi steering wheel and MOT to September 14.
1971 Marcos GT- Current ownership since 1970s- £25,000 plus comprehensive restoration- 3000 miles since restorationMarcos was founded in 1959 by Jem Marsh and Frank Costin, and it was Costin's earlier work on the De Havilland Mosquito that led to the newcomer's first monocoque chassis being constructed from marine plywood. The later Luton-built versions benefited from less radical styling by Dennis Adams and were powered by a range of Ford engines. Nine Xylons and 13 Luton Gullwings saw the light of day, many of which were raced - light and nimble, they were very successful; especially in the hands of Jackie Stewart, Jackie Oliver and Marsh himself.Costin left the company in 1961, following which all design matters fell to Dennis Adams and his brother Peter, and it was their GT of 1964 that really put Marcos on the map. By 1969 the famous wooden chassis had been usurped by a more conventional steel one, and by 1971 Ford V6 power had been exchanged for that of the Volvo straight-six engine. 1965 had witnessed the debut of the successful Malcolm Newell-penned Mini Marcos kit car while, contrary to popular opinion, the ensuing Mantis M70 2+2 sold well, and it was problems over an American export shipment that forced Marcos into liquidation in 1972.This Marcos is a 1971 example of the popular GT, powered by the 3-Litre Volvo engine of the time. Stunningly presented, it is finished in a fetching shade of Orange that's teamed with Cream-coloured hide and Red carpets. It has been in the current ownership for all but two years of its life, and served as the main source of transport for the vendor until the mid-'80s. In recent times it was treated to a comprehensive £25,000-plus restoration, since when it has travelled a mere 3,000 miles. This pristine example of the marque is now offered complete with photographic record of the work carried out and MOT valid into July.
1929 Ford Model A 5-Window Coupe- Very original condition- Formerly resident of California- Bodywork, engine, electrical, gearbox and interior described by vendor as very goodThe Model T phenomenon lasted 18 years, but by 1926 even Henry Ford had to admit that the car that 'put the world on wheels' had finally run out of steam. No follower of convention, he terminated T production on May 26th 1927 immediately after the 15 millionth example had rolled off the line, despite having nothing to replace it with. Henry himself directed the development of: a new longer, lower-slung chassis; a Howard Hicks-designed 3285cc, four-cylinder engine; three-speed manual transmission and novel electrical system. By the time the Model A made its debut on December 2nd, there was a backlog of 400,000 orders for a car nobody had seen!Finished in Green over Black with Red pinstriping and Brown upholstery, this Five-Window Coupe is described by the vendor as being in 'very good' condition with regard to its bodywork, engine, electrical equipment, gearbox and interior trim, while he rates the paintwork as 'good'. Formerly resident in California but now UK registered, the Ford's time in sunnier climes is understood to have helped preserve its steel bodywork. Said by the seller to 'drive well' and be 'very original', this appealing left-hand drive Model A has recently seen service with a film hire company.
2000 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible- Supplied new to Florida then resided in Spain until 2015- Major service in 2017 by Amercian car specialist- Optional heads up displayA discernible improvement on its predecessor, the fifth generation or C5 Corvette was introduced in 1996. Commendably light and stiff, its hydroformed box frame chassis played host to composite transverse-leaf independent suspension, rack and pinion steering and four-wheel disc brakes. Powered by a new alloy 5.7 litre LS1 V8 engine, the two-seater boasted 51:49 weight distribution thanks to rear-mounted transaxles which housed either four-speed automatic or six-speed manual transmission. Initially rated at 345hp/350lbft, the powerplant was breathed upon to develop 350hp/365lbft for the 2001 model year. Weighing less than 1,500kg, the C5 Corvette Convertible was reputedly capable of 0-60mph in 4.8 seconds and 164mph. Proof of the design's fundamental soundness, the racing C5-R versions were regular class winners at the Le Mans 24-hours.Finished in Torch Red with Red leather upholstery, this more potent 2001 model year example is described by the vendor as `excellent' with regard to its engine, automatic transmission, electrical equipment, interior trim, bodywork and paintwork. Supplied new in Florida, the two-seater migrated to Spain before being UK registered during 2015. Treated to a major service by an American car specialist last year, it boasts the optional Heads-Up Display (HUD). Offering huge performance per pound sterling, this striking `Vette is MOT'd until April.

Correctly registered as a GPC Coupe (Grand Performance Cars having taken over Covin) it has covered just c.1600 miles since. Finished in McQueen Slate Grey (resprayed 2011) with black leather interior, the car's specification includes: VW 1600cc air-cooled twin port engine breathing through 'new this year' twin Weber 34ict carburettors with CB Performance twin port inlets and balance pipe and new CSP bell crank carb linkage, electric fuel pump, sump plate, 'new this year' EMPI loud dual exhaust system plus manifold with extended stainless steel tailpipes, 993 black leather electric seats, Momo steering wheel, Porsche dials, 12v socket, electric windows, Sony stereo/CD, chrome dress up parts to engine bay, fire extinguisher etc. The headlining and carpets are described as "excellent" whilst the rare Revolution alloys are shod with matching tyres all round. Accompanied by a Swansea V5C and current MoT to 6 June 2018, it is said to turn heads wherever it goes.
1970 Morris Mini Cooper S MKII- Said to be extremely original apart from replacement of front wings- 1275cc, rare reclining seats option, previous long-term ownership- Blue / White with Black interior, V5C documentThe value of classic Minis has rocketed in recent years, and whereas a while ago enthusiasts were busy modifying them to taste today's predominant requirement is for examples that have either been professionally restored or remain unmolested. 'CLR 326H' falls into the latter category and is believed to be highly original save for replacement front wings. The vendor presently grades the A Series engine and manual gearbox as 'very good', the bodywork and Black interior trim as 'good', and the White over Blue paintwork as 'average', as there is some evidence of micro-blistering. The Cooper has reputedly been owned by a doctor for some 22 of its 48 years. Somewhere along the way, the rest of its history has been mislaid so the car's only accompanying paperwork is the current V5. The mighty Mini's specification includes reclining front seats and the odometer currently displays just 9,709 (unwarranted) miles.
1980 Innocenti Mini de Tomaso- Rare high-performance Mini derivative styled by Bertone- The least expensive way into De Tomaso ownership!- Extensively restored by its previous keeper and part of a private collection since 2000`We found it irresistible; an engaging little car with an on-the-road performance as chirpy as its appearance . . . there would surely be a market for it as a cult-car appealing both to chic-about-town Chelsea-ites, and "bring-back the Cooper S" enthusiasts' (Motor magazine reviewing the Innocenti Mini de Tomaso)British Leyland's Italian subsidiary Innocenti unveiled a radically reworked three-door hatchback version of the Mini at the 1974 Turin Salon. Styled by Bertone, the newcomer could be had in 90L (998cc, 43bhp) or 120L (1275cc, 63bhp) guises but was powerless to prevent its British parent company's bankruptcy the following year. Snapped up by automotive entrepreneur Alejandro de Tomaso, Innocenti introduced a high-performance version named after him at the 1976 Turin Salon. Boasting some 71bhp (74bhp from 1978 onwards), four-speed manual transmission and dry rubber cone independent suspension, it handled and went like a Cooper S but looked rather more modern thanks to its moulded plastic bumpers, flared wheelarches, alloy wheels and prominent bonnet scoop.Finished in Metallic Black with Beige cloth upholstery, this particular left-hand drive example is variously rated by the vendor as `average' (interior trim), `good' (1275cc engine, gearbox, electrical equipment) or `very good' (bodywork, paintwork). Reportedly extensively restored by its previous owner who also entered it for car club sprints, the Innocenti has formed part of a private collection since 2000. Sparingly used over the past eighteen years and showing an unwarranted 91,000km to its odometer, this rare Mini is offered for sale with V5C Registration Document showing two former keepers since its importation during 1991 and MOT certificate valid until August 2018.
