- One of two Cross & Ellis two-seaters with dickey- Offered with comprehensive history file- Extensively restored by Tim Walker during 1993 and 1994The replacement for the Alvis 12/50 was delayed and it was not until 1932 that the Firefly finally made its debut. It was based on the Speed 20 SA double-drop chassis and powered by a four-cylinder OHV engine of 1496cc.Many Alvises were clothed by Cross & Ellis and 'YD 7867' is one of only two similar, but unidentical, two-seater bodies with dickey they produced for the Firefly, making this a unique motorcar. It was delivered new to Windmill & Lewis of Bristol in September 1933 and allocated a Somerset County Council registration number. Thirty three years later it was exported to Washington State, USA and remained on that continent until repatriated in 1990. It was during 1993/1994 that the Firefly was treated to an extensive restoration by Tim Walker Restorations of Aylesbury. The majority of the work was mechanical and included a total overhaul of the engine. The previous keeper acquired the motorcar in 2009 but evidently subjected it to little use. The lady vendor purchased it in 2013 and for ease of driving replaced the crash gearbox with the synchromesh unit from a later Alvis - the original and associated parts have been retained.Resplendent in White over Black paintwork with Tan leather interior, the Alvis is now considered by the vendor to have 'excellent' transmission, 'very good' bodywork and paintwork, and 'good' engine and original interior trim. It is being sold complete with: custom-made stainless steel exhaust; brand new tonneau cover; copies of the Firefly instruction book, build records and buff logbook; photos of the car in America and the gearbox installation; US certificate of title and UK customs paperwork; invoices and notes re the restoration; 1960s correspondence with Alvis; and a copy of Alvis 'Firefly Twelve'.

Following its replacement of the MGA in 1962, the MGB was steadily updated during its 18-year reign. However, the biggest visual change in the car's history occurred in 1974, when steel reinforced rubber bumpers replaced the chrome ones and the ride height was raised by one inch. By the time Roadster production ceased in October 1980, a total of 399,070 are said to have been produced.First registered on 10th August 1972, 'HJH139L' was the subject of a V8 conversion by Cox & Perry in 2002. Treated to a full re-spray and service in 2016, the vendor variously classes the bodywork and paintwork as 'excellent' and the engine, electrical equipment, five-speed manual gearbox and interior trim as 'very good'. The Roadster is offered complete with service history and MOT to June 2017.
- Believed one of only 16 UK supplied RHD Club Sports and featuring the original sales invoice for £131,710- An extraordinary number of factory and dealer fitted extras including carbon pack, bucket seats, and special colour- Only one owner form new and just 55,000 recorded miles with a very comprehensive maintenance recordWhen Porsche launched the 996 version of their 911 GT2 in 2000, the car swiftly gained iconic status as one of the most focused and fastest Porsche production cars ever manufactured. With the reported 462bhp produced from its twin turbo flat six engine being transferred to the road through the rear wheels only (the Turbo model had four wheel drive), performance was electrifying with 60mph being achieved from rest in just under 4 seconds and a top speed of about 198mph.The comprehensive history file on this rather special GT2 Club Sport contains both the handwritten order form and the sales invoice form AFN Porsche on London's Park Lane. They state that the options chosen when new were special paint, carbon package, leather console, carbon rear console, leather sport steering wheel and leather steering column casing, front floor mats, leather interior light, carbon door entrance panels, aluminium dials, carbon gearshift and handbrake, top-tint windscreen, centre console, Becker radio/CD, Club Sport package, leather bucket seats, coloured wheel centres, passenger six-point harness, and security glass covering. The total of the two-page invoice was a generous £131,710.The purchaser resided in Bayswater, West London, and was very much a Porsche enthusiast who raced a modern 911, but despite having his own workshop to maintain his racing car, he entrusted the supplying dealer's Reading workshops to maintain the car for the first four annual services, and Porsche Hatfield for the 2006 and 2007 services. Thereafter he had the car maintained in his own workshop and transferred the registration into the name of his racing team in March 2013. As well as the aforementioned invoices, the history file also contains many maintenance invoices, many expired MOT certificates, and the hand book pack.With only a reported 129 GT2 models imported by Porsche into the UK when new of which apparently only 16 were to Club Sport specification, this one owner car has a super provenance and is described by the vendor as being excellent in all respects. It is sure to attract the interest of Porsche collectors.

With a quoted 552bhp and 479lbft of torque on tap plus Torsen-based permanent four-wheel drive, the 2+2-seater GT was reputedly capable of 0-60mph in 4.8 seconds and 198mph. A deft blend of muscularity and elegance, the two-door coupe's lines were the work of Dirk Van Braekel. Equipped with sophisticated independent suspension and ventilated ABS disc brakes all-round, the Continental GT proved an accomplished transcontinental express.Finished in Cypress Green with Savannah / Spruce leather interior, this example is described as being in "very good" condition with regards to its paintwork, bodywork, engine, interior, electrics and transmission. Registering some 83,500 miles it has been serviced by Bentley eight times and then by Bentley specialists 4 times, with the last carried out on 12 August this year. Well-appointed with walnut trim, the car is offered with Swansea V5C and current MoT to August 2017.
