A 1975 Rolls Royce Corniche convertible motor car, finished in Ivory with a cream hood and brown leather, piped in magnoliaThis is a three-owner car, originally supplied to a yacht dealer who was based in the south of France. It was ordered in right-hand-drive configuration (as the owner didn't want to have to learn how to drive with the steering wheel on the left!) and delivered to Frank Dale in London before being shipped to Franco britanic Autos ltd, Paris. He had asked Rolls Royce to paint the car in Vauxhall Regency Cream but they refused to paint it a Vauxhall colour and gave him the closest colour from their approved swatches, being Rolls Royce Ivory (paint code 9510233). Eve Clarke purchased the car in 1987 when the mileage was recorded at 25,000 and it is now showing approximately 31,000 miles. Recently re-commissioned by a local Rolls Royce specialist (at a cost of £2,100, to include new battery, fuel tank flush and some new fuel lines) after approximately 12 years in storage, the car presents well and is ready to use and enjoy. The cherished registration DRB 700 will accompany the car.The car presents well but on close inspection there are numerous areas of micro-blistering to the paintwork and some possible corrosion under the paintwork on the lower section of the bootlid. Mechanically the car drove well on a short test drive albeit the driver's window was not functioning and there may be a broken spring to the offside front suspension. We have been advised by the specialist who has recently worked on the vehicle, that the engine and gearbox appear to be fundamentally good but that it will need further work to the brake pipes and significant work to the hydraulic system whcih will need to be entirely renewed. There is a small tear in the hood near the nearside window. We are told the pump for the motorised hood mechanism is working but we have not operated the hood ourselves.The car comes with two sets of keys and numerous old MOT certifcates and invoices for previous works (please see images)Please note, the condition report included herewith is not exhaustive. Cheffins are unable to provide any further condition or mechanical reports on this lot and Bidders are thus advised to view the vehicle in person where possible. Our images and walk-around video are designed to provide a guide as to the physical condition of the vehicle only. Vehicles are sold as seen.

Registration No: 136 APH Chassis No: H3524Z MOT: Exempt • Part of the collection since 1982 • 35,316 recorded miles (unwarranted) • Highly original interior • Off the road since 2015 • In need of recommissioning / restoration “The modern Singer, with its long, alligator bonnet and deep leather-upholstered seats, its polished wood dash and very complete equipment, imparts an air of solidity and luxury” (Motor Sport magazine). Introduced in 1954, the Singer Hunter sported revised sheetmetal complete with a prominent chrome radiator grille and horse’s head mascot but otherwise utilised much the same body-on-frame construction, independent front suspension, 1.5 litre SOHC four-cylinder engine and four-speed manual gearbox as its SM1500 predecessor. Hampered by Singer’s perilous financial position even the addition of a pared back ‘S’ model and the promise of a ‘twin cam’ variant could not save the Hunter. Phased out after the Rootes Group’s takeover, just 4,700 were made. First registered in Surrey on 16th April 1956 (or so its ‘136 APH’ number plate would imply), chassis H3524Z belonged to Michael Jones of Brentwood by 1981. Joining the late Mr Lucas’s collection the following year, the Singer pleasingly retains a highly original interior and shows an unwarranted 35,316 miles to its odometer. Seemingly last on the road in 2015, this rare surviving Hunter is now in need of recommissioning / renovation.

Registration No: 829 HPB Chassis No: AN56250 MOT: Exempt • Provided with a full restoration between 2014 and 2019 • Offered with full weather equipment • Known ownership history since 1969 • Supplied with a BMIHT Heritage Certificate Intended as a spiritual successor to inexpensive pre-war sports cars such as the MG M-type or Austin 7 Nippy, the Austin-Healey Sprite was launched in May 1958. Fruit of the growing partnership between Donald Healey and Austin's Leonard Lord, its design costs were kept to a minimum through some inspired BMC parts bin raiding. Built around a lightweight monocoque, it combined the Austin A35's independent front suspension and four-speed gearbox. Powered by a twin-carburettor fed 948cc A-series four-cylinder engine developing some 43bhp and 52lbft of torque, it was capable of over 80mph. Credit for the Frogeye's wonderful styling lies with both Gerry Coker and Les Ireland. Put on sale for just £669 including purchase tax rarely before or since has a sports car enjoyed such a large fun-to-price ratio. Finished in British Racing Green with a Black interior, with full weather equipment, this Frogeye is reported to be in very good condition throughout following an extensive restoration by the present owner since his purchase in 2013. Works included a full strip-down and body restoration followed by a bare shell repaint and rust treatment prior to rebuild. Practical upgrades include a strengthened glass fibre front end. Restoration was completed in 2020 to be subsequently inspected and MOT tested by MG Specialists Halls Garage in Bourne, before being extensively campaigned on MG and Sprite Club events. Document files include extensive expenditure records, invoices, progress photographs, manuals, ownership history since 1969, the V5C, RF60, Heritage Certificate etc. Offered for sale only because of the vendor’s ‘advancing years’, HPB has always been garaged and well-maintained since restoration and represents an excellent opportunity to acquire a well sorted and ready-to-go Sprite, eagerly awaiting more adventures!

Registration No: UPL 141F Chassis No: DB6/3276/R MOT: Exempt • Stalled restoration project with much work already completed • A matching numbers example originally specified with five-speed ZF Manual transmission • British Motor Industry Heritage Certificate on file confirming that the car was originally supplied in Deep Carriage Green over Red • Offered with a collection of invoices for works performed to date Unveiled at the 1965 London Motor Show, the DB6 was notable for being the first Aston Martin model to be engineered following the company's move from Feltham to Newport Pagnell. Although, a direct development of the DB5, with the same visage, the newcomer enjoyed notably better high-speed stability thanks to the provision of a Kamm tail with built-in spoiler, and superior interior space courtesy of a 3.7-inch longer wheelbase and taller roofline. Grafted over a sheet steel platform chassis, the four-seater's hand-finished aluminium panels helped contribute to the claimed kerb weight of 3,232lbs that was actually only 17lbs heavier than its predecessor. Praised by the contemporary motoring press for its poise and handling, the DB6 employed all-round coil-sprung suspension, four-wheel disc brakes and rack-and-pinion steering. Powered by the fabulous Tadek Marek designed 3995cc DOHC straight-six engine, the model boasted some 282bhp and 280lbft of torque in standard tune and could be had with five-speed ZF manual or three-speed Borg Warner automatic transmission. A contemporary road test found a manual DB6 to be capable of 0-60mph in 7.4 seconds and 150mph. A total of 1,327 MkI Saloons were produced between October 1965 and the MkII's July 1969 arrival. According to the British Motor Industry Heritage Trust certificate on file, chassis DB6/3276/R was built on the 31st October 1967 and despatched to HR Owen Limited, London on 20th December 1967 where it was first registered as 'UPL 141F'. Originally supplied in the attractive and unusual colour combination of Deep Carriage Green paintwork over a Red Leather interior and was specified from the factory with a five-speed ZF gearbox. Little is known of the DB6's early life, however it is understood that the previous owner found the car as a complete project in 2018 with the intention of carrying out a complete restoration. Much of the car was found to be corroded, including most, if not all, of the Aluminium panel work - an aged photograph on file suggests that there was a large hole that had been cut in the offside front wing! Purchased by the vendor in 2020, the car had already been stripped for restoration and was found to be in need of much welding work - so therefore the Aston's body was taken to Martin Wilcox (the renowned metalwork artist of Z-Lines vehicle restoration) who fitted complete steel front and rear chassis sections from R&J Simpson and has removed all of the corrosion from elsewhere. The famous Tadek Marek designed six-cylinder, twin-cam power unit was stripped for overhaul and machining work was entrusted to the Head Shop in Warrington, Cheshire, who overhauled the cylinder head and bored out the block to 4.2 Litre with matching pistons to suit. However, the engine has remained in a disassembled state ever since, with its overhauled SU carburettors and ZF gearbox also being present. Now presented as an incredible opportunity for any prospective buyer to build one of the great David Brown era Astons to their specification, DB6/3276/R is now available to market with much of the hard work having been completed. Supplied with a number of invoices on file, the original chassis number plate stating the original engine number (which is confirmed to be matching the block stamping) and also a hoard of extra parts. We recommend that any interested parties view this lot in person to satisfy themselves about its condition. PLEASE NOTE: 'UPL 141F' no longer appears when typed into the DVLA online vehicle check and there is no V5C present with the history file - however a HPI check on the chassis number has confirmed the link and has shown a clean record. Prospective bidders should make their own enquiries and be aware that they will need to apply for a new registration document.

Registration No: JTB 559B Chassis No: GA153204CP MOT: Exempt • Part of the collection since 1979 • Pleasingly retains its original upholstery • 34,559 recorded miles (unwarranted) • In need of recommissioning Launched in April 1959, the Herald was the first Standard-Triumph to utilise the company's new generation separate chassis platform (which would later underpin the Spitfire, GT6 and Vitesse). Blessed with elegant lines, courtesy of Giovanni Michelotti, the model featured all-round independent suspension and rack-and-pinion steering. An accomplished town car, criticism as to its lack of pace was answered by the introduction of the '1200' during April 1961. Powered by an 1147cc four-cylinder OHV engine that developed 39bhp (boosted to 48bhp from 1963), it was capable of 75mph. Visually distinguished by a new laminate dashboard and rubber-covered bumpers, the 1200 could be had in saloon, coupe and estate guises. First registered in Lancashire on 13th November 1964 (or so its ‘JTB 559B’ number plate would imply), chassis GA153204CP joined the late Mr Lucas’s collection fifteen years later. Pleasingly retaining its original upholstery, the Triumph shows 34,559 unwarranted miles to the odometer. Passing its most recent MOT test 109 miles ago on 16th August 2017, the Herald has since been on static display over recent years and as such is in need of recommissioning. Exuding period charm, this rare surviving Coupe has been fitted with auxiliary gauges and a Bush radio.

Registration No: XVO 400H Chassis No: 84503355D MOT: Exempt • Benefitting from significant restoration work in 2015-2016 • Just 53,500 recorded miles and in current ownership since 2016 • Featured in ‘Classic Car Mart’ in a comparison between the Rover P5B Coupe and the Daimler V8 250 – in which the P5B won! • Accompanied by a large history file Although a marriage of expediency, the union between Rover's stately P5 model range and the ex-Buick 3528cc all-alloy OHV V8 engine, it resulted in an unexpectedly fine motorcar. Launched in 1967, the Rover P5B (or P5 Buick if you prefer) was conceived to stave off increasingly refined competition from the likes of Jaguar and Mercedes-Benz. Available in Saloon and Coupe guises - both of which employed four doors - the big Rover was equipped with independent torsion-bar front suspension, a leaf-sprung 'live' rear axle and disc/drum brakes. Fitted with a three-speed automatic transmission and power-assisted steering as standard, it proved a relaxing drive. Though, with some 161bhp and 210lbft of torque on tap, it also boasted a 115mph top speed. Well-appointed in the best Rover tradition, the P5B’s 'gentlemen's club' interior made it a firm favourite with businessmen, politicians (Harold Wilson's car was reputed to have a pipe rack in the back) and even Her Late Majesty The Queen, who owned an Arden Green Saloon. Production lasted until 1973 by which time 9,099 Coupes and 11,501 Saloons had been built. Manufactured in 1969, the P5B offered was supplied new to the United Kingdom being road registered on the 24th of September that year. Finished in Admiralty Blue paintwork with a Silver Birch roof, the Rover features a complementary Tan hide interior upholstery. Shortly before being purchased into current ownership in 2016, the P5B was provided with significant restoration work between 2015-2016 that comprised a complete respray, fitment of electronic ignition, attention to the cooling system, and other smaller improvements to the total of over £7,700. Thereafter featured in ‘Classic Car Mart’ magazine in a comparison between the Rover P5B Coupe and the Daimler V8 250, with the article concluding that the P5B narrowly won! Further enhanced while in current ownership, the Rover has received wheel refurbishment, a brake refresh, a new starter motor, fitment of a vintage-style radio, and servicing making expenditure since 2015 totalling above £10,600. Accompanied by the original and complete toolkit, chassis ‘84503355D’ is offered now with just 53,500 recorded miles on the odometer. Supplied with a history file that contains a large collection of invoices, previous MOT certificates, owner’s instruction manual, original sales literature, workshop manual, copy of the ‘Classic Car Mart’ magazine, and a current V5C document. With low recorded mileage and in an appealing colour scheme, ‘XVO 400H’ has much to recommend it and is offered at we feel, an attractive guide.

Registration No: NLD 69 Chassis No: TD9959 MOT: Exempt • Desirable 'home market' example to 'TD2' specification • Matching chassis and engine numbers • Presents as a well preserved older restoration • Retains original registration number 'NLD 69' • Offered as part of a deceased estate sale on a 'No Reserve' basis Although, instantly recognisable as a T-series model thanks to its perpendicular radiator shell, flowing wings and rear-mounted spare wheel, the TD broke important new ground for the Abingdon marque. The first MG sportscar to feature either independent double-wishbone front suspension or rack and pinion steering, the newcomer also boasted a hypoid-bevel back axle, hidden scuttle reinforcement hoop (save for the first few cars) and twin leading-shoe front brakes. Powered by the proven 1250cc XPAG engine allied to four-speed manual transmission, it was reputedly capable of 82mph and 26mpg. Riding on fifteen-inch steel wheels as standard, the TD also sported a mirror-image dashboard (thus facilitating either LHD or RHD production) and chrome-plated bumpers. A great success story, the vast majority of the 29,665 cars produced were sold overseas. First registered on the 4th December 1952, 'NLD 69' reputedly was first owned by a doctor who had a practice in Norwich and used the car for doing his rounds on a daily basis and kept the car until his passing in 2006. Little has been kept in the history file from this period, however it is understood that the car was taken off the road in March 1997 for two years for a full cosmetic and brake overhaul which took the car back to a bare chassis for grit blasted and repainting and then repainting of the bodywork into the current Cream and Maroon colours, and there are receipts on file for this. In 2002, the engine and gearbox were completely overhauled and electronic ignition fitted in 2005. After the first owners' passing, the car was passed to his son who owned the car until 2013 when the late owner purchased the car and he reputedly kept the car in tip top order himself. The owner's widow and vendor advises that he used the car sparingly and was 'his favourite', and used the car for trips on the continent and many car shows. Unfortunately, the passing of the owner after a long term illness now means his cars are to be sold and some mild form of recommissioning is to be expected for both, with this MG TD turning over and rolling easily, but not starting on the day of consignment (suspected to be the fuel pump). Offered with a history file containing a number of receipts for work performed and MOT tests on file, this TD is to be offered on a No Reserve basis.

Registration No: GE 3829 Chassis No: AS62366 MOT: Exempt • Part of the collection since 1990 • Elegant Six-Light Saloon coachwork with smoker's hatch • Subject to an older restoration • In need of recommissioning / renovation Introduced in October 1927, the Armstrong-Siddeley 15hp was the marque’s most affordable six-cylinder model. Boasting four bearings for both its crankshaft and camshaft, the newcomer’s 1928cc sidevalve engine also featured a detachable cylinder head which facilitated ‘decoking’. Aimed at the ‘owner driver’ market, the 15hp could be had with a range of open and closed bodystyles, the majority of which were supplied by Armstrong-Siddeley’s inhouse coachbuilder, Burlington. Gaining a higher rear axle ratio and revised rear suspension from April 1928, it was reputedly capable of pulling from 5mph to 50mph in top gear. Progressively developed, some 7,203 15hp cars are thought to have been made by the time production ceased in 1934. First registered in Glasgow on 24th February 1929 (or so its ‘GE 3829’ number plate would imply), chassis AS62366 belonged to Alan Scholes of Bury by the late 1970s. Joining the late Mr Lucas’s collection some thirty-four years ago, the Armstrong-Siddeley still sports a dashboard plaque commemorating its participation in the Lancashire Automobile Club’s Daily Telegraph-sponsored 1957 Manchester to Blackpool Veteran and Vintage car run. Self-evidently the subject of much past restoration work, the Coachbuilt Saloon has since been stored in a leaking barn and deteriorated accordingly. A rare survivor and a worthwhile project.

Registration No: DG 6007 Chassis No: S16400 MOT: Exempt • In single family ownership since purchase by the vendor's father in 1964 • Fitted with four speed pre-selector gearbox • Described as a running project 'perfect for oily rag' • Supplied with full set of sidescreens and hood plus a number of spare parts • VSCC Post Vintage Thoroughbred Eligible Introduced in October 1928, the Armstrong Siddeley 12hp was arguably the marque's first model to target mass market sales. Powered by a sidevalve, six-cylinder 1236cc engine, the newcomer offered class competitive performance and was more refined than some four-cylinder rivals. Initially available as a two-seater coupe, four-seater tourer or fabric saloon, the 12hp could be had with more elaborate coachwork by October 1930 including a coachbuilt saloon derivative which was nicely crafted but decidedly heavy.

Registration No: SV 6402 Chassis No: 2/M-1027 MOT: Exempt • Extensively uprated for competitive use and used for a number of hillclimb events with the VSCC • Subject to over £9,000 worth of improvement works in 2023 • Supplied with three thick folders full of receipts and history documents The MG M-Type was manufactured from April 1929 to 1932 and was sometimes referred to as the 8/33. Launched at the 1928 London Motor Show when sales of larger MG saloons began to falter due to the economic climate, the small car brought MG ownership to a new sector of the market and probably saved the company. Early cars were assembled in MG's Cowley factory but production transferred to Abingdon when the MG factory moved there in the Autumn of 1929. The M-Type was one of the first genuinely affordable sports cars to be offered by an established manufacturer, as opposed to modified versions of factory-built saloon cars and tourers. This two-door sports car used an updated version of the four-cylinder, bevel-gear driven, overhead-camshaft engine used in the 1928 Morris Minor and Wolseley 10 with a single SU carburettor generating a sporty 20bhp. Drive was to the rear wheels through a three-speed non-synchromesh gearbox. Early bodies were fabric-covered around a wooden frame but this changed to all-metal in 1931 when the majority of cars were clothed by Carbodies of Coventry and offered by MG in either open two-seat or closed two-door Sportsman’s Coupé versions. The M-Type enjoyed considerable sporting success, both privately and with official teams, winning gold medals in the 1929 Land's End Trial and class wins in the 1930 'Double Twelve' race at Brooklands. Total sales amounted to 3,253 cars by the time production ceased in 1933. First registered on the 28th February 1930, chassis 2/M-1027 was first registered as 'PG 6464' and was originally bodied by Carbodies as a fabric body two-seat tourer. Little is known about the early history of the car, however the continuation buff log book on file shows that the car was acquired by Rowland Smith Ltd - the famous Hampstead based car sales business - on the 19th June 1956 and that the car was Grey and Black during this period. In July 1957, the car was in private ownership in West London and it appears to have been exported by a gentleman in New Zealand from 1976, by which time the car was registered as '214 PPO'. Repatriated in 1987, the M-Type was re-registered as 'SV 6402' in 1988 and in 2000 was acquired by a Mr Glister who put to work in a number of VSCC competition events after a large overhaul in 2008 for which there are a number of receipts on file. At some point during the car's life - the car was fitted with a four-speed close ratio gearbox which it retains today along with an original, extensively uprated power unit - the specification of which includes a Phoenix fully balanced crankshaft, cosworth pistons and connecting rods, oversized inlet valves, full race camshaft and Brooklands style exhaust (the original style item comes with the car). Mr Glister kept the car until 2023, and in that time evidently cherished the MG as it has a number of large invoices on file, including as recently as 2023 there are two invoices from Yorkshire Restorations for cosmetic and mechanical work at £6939 and £1887.35 plus many more previously. Acquired by the vendor in 2023 with the intent of using the car for further competition work, it has unfortunately been relatively under-used due to the vendor's ill health and he has therefore decided that the car is to be sold. Offered with one of the most comprehensive history files we have seen to date including the UK V5C, a stack of paperwork relating to its competition usage, bills dating back to 2000 plus the continuation buff log book and original brass chassis plate, 2/M-1027 presents a fantastic opportunity for any prospective buyer to confidently enter the world of pre-war competition events with fantastic support from the Triple-M Register. Described by the vendor as being in 'very good to excellent' condition throughout, we urge you to make this fabulous baby MG a consideration.

Registration No: A6 LWL Chassis No: SCBZP03C6SCH55105 MOT: May 2025 • 1 of just 1,211 TL examples reputedly produced • Modest mileage of 81,000 miles from new • Attractive colour scheme of Red Pearl (Mica) with complementary Sandstone hide with St James Red piping • Benefitting from some £19,500 worth of expenditure since 2020 Introduced at the 1982 Geneva Motor Show, the Mulsanne Turbo signalled a revival in the winged 'B's fortunes. Somewhat raffish when compared to its Rolls-Royce Silver Spirit sibling, the Turbo breathed new life into Bentley sales. Indeed, in some ways, this glorious automotive wolf in (large) sheep's clothing can be credited with inspiring Bentley's victorious return to Le Mans. With some 300bhp courtesy of its force-fed 6.75 litre V8, the Mulsanne Turbo was reputedly capable of an easy 135mph and 0-60mph in under seven seconds. Although, for those not wishing to indulge in such prodigious performance, its smooth automatic transmission and supple independent suspension also allowed for more dignified progress. Debuting in March 1985, the evolutionary Turbo R provided an altogether more focused driving experience. Benefiting from an uprated torque converter, more horsepower, stiffer anti-roll bars and firmer damping, its handling drew considerable praise from the contemporary motoring press. Enjoying greater rear legroom, the long wheelbase RL variant is thought to have accounted for some 1,211 sales before the second generation Turbo R / RL arrived in 1994. Supplied new by Lancaster Europa Rolls-Royce and Bentley, being delivered on the 15th of August 1994, the Turbo RL was finished from the factory in the attractive colour scheme of Red Pearl (Mica) with complementary Sandstone hide with St James Red piping. Understood to have been used as transport between a United Kingdom home and a second home in Belgium by a previous owner, the long wheelbase Turbo is now offered having covered a modest c.81,700 miles from new with just five former keepers. Benefitting from a significant expenditure to the sum of over £19,500 since 2020, the Turbo RL has received a top-end engine overhaul; skimmed cylinder heads; new head gaskets, renewal of the cooling equipment and reconditioning of the radiator; a new lower steering column; new front brake discs and pads; new front springs and shock absorbers; a new brake accumulator; and servicing amongst further improvement with much of the work completed by specialists Prestige Services. Offered with the original owner's handbook, stamped service book, the recent and older invoices, collection of MOT certificates, no advisory MOT certificate until May 2025, and a current V5C document. In regular use with the vendor, the Turbo RL is due to be driven some eighty miles to the sale. For more information, please contact: Paul Cheetham paul.cheetham@handh.co.uk 07538 667452

Registration No: 189 VNU Chassis No: VAS2-0029297M MOT: Exempt Single family ownership from 1971 until 1997Genuine 29,700 miles from newSupplied with the original BMC Retail Order Form and a large history filePleasingly original example with factory spot welds presentInspired by a bespoke Morris 1100 that Fred Connolly had commissioned from coachbuilder-turned-manufacturer Vanden Plas, BMC tasked its Kingsbury-based subsidiary with replicating Mr. Connolly’s car to gauge public reaction at the October 1963 Earls Court Motor Show. Sporting a revised radiator grille, two-tone Green paint, and sumptuous Champagne Beige leather and Walnut Veneer interior, the resultant machine attracted a deluge of enquiries. Entering production in April 1964, the Vanden Plas Princess 1100 boasted a twin-carburettor 1100cc engine, four-speed manual gearbox, front disc brakes, and Hydrolastic interconnected suspension. Priced at £896 (£195 more than the MG 1100 with which it shared a powerplant), the newcomer also featured a West of England cloth headlining, Wilton carpets, reading lights, rear picnic tables and individual folding front seat armrests. In an age of coachbuilt Minis by Wood & Pickett and Radford etc, the Vanden Plas with its ‘shrunken Rolls-Royce’ cabin proved a strong seller, with the 1300 version launched in Autumn 1967. Chassis ‘29297M’ was despatched from the factory on the 12th of August 1971, finished in Midnight Blue paintwork with Blue leather interior upholstery, a colour scheme that it pleasingly still presents in today. Road registered as ‘FYC 884K’, the Vanden Plas was specified with the factory fitted extras of the four-speed automatic transmission, heated rear window, and automatic seat belts. Supplied to the first keeper by Shrubbery Garages Ltd of Weston-Super-Mare, with the original BMC retail order form still on file, the first owner used the 1300 sparingly, and according to a letter on file from his granddaughter, was only used for Saturday morning trips to the pub and was polished in the afternoon on its return back! Retained in the first family ownership until 1997, the Princess was sold with just 21,000 miles having been covered. Well maintained through its subsequent life, there are significant numbers of maintenance and servicing invoices on file. Entering previous ownership in 2014, the Vanden Plas received new front brake discs and pads, and servicing upon purchase. Fitted with a Stage Two Head at some point, the vendor informs the Vanden Plas is ‘very nippy’ and the 1300 engine started readily and ran well during our recent photography session. Offered with a large history file that contains the aforementioned significant collection of invoices and the letter from the original owner's granddaughter, as well as a large selection of MOTs back to 1977 (with 5,696 miles at the time), previous tax discs, Vanden Plas Owner's Club factory records, and a current V5C document. A low mileage example having now covered just 29,700 miles from new, ‘29297M’ is a notably original car, believed to be retaining much of its original interior and presents with its factory spot welds evident. Supplied with its jack and toolkit, this is a rare opportunity for what is surely a scarce sub-30,000 miles example.

Registration No: FN52 HSZ Chassis No: SCCGA11132HC73836 MOT: July 2025 • Current family ownership since 2005 and 28,000 warranted miles from new • 1 of just 50 cars produced for the home market to celebrate the 40th Anniversary of Lotus's groundbreaking Type 25 Grand Prix car • Finished in Lotus Racing Green metallic with Yellow stripes and Red upholstery as a tribute to the similarly hued F1 car • Handbook, service booklet, old MOTs and Tracker paperwork etc • A highly collectible Elise S2 • Hardtop and soft-top roofs, tool kit. car cover etc Sanctioned by Classic Team Lotus, the Elise Type 25 Limited Edition was introduced in 2002 to celebrate the 40th Anniversary of the Hethel marque’s groundbreaking Formula 1 car (the first to utilise monocoque construction). Aping the single-seater’s iconic colour scheme, the roadgoing Type 25 was finished in Lotus Racing Green metallic with twin Yellow stripes and Red faced upholstery. Sporting the same, dramatic, insectile, Steve Crijns styling as the Elise S2 111S model upon which it was based, the Limited Edition was thus powered by a 1.8 litre K-Series engine with VVC allied to five-speed manual transmission. Improved crash protection notwithstanding, the lightweight two-seater’s bonded aluminium structure and GRP outer panels meant that it weighed little more than 800kgs. Making the most of its modest outputs (156bhp/129lbft), the Lotus was reputedly capable of 0-60mph in 5.1 seconds and 132mph. Allocation of the fifty Type 25 Limited Editions made was split between the UK (forty-five) and Australian (five) markets. This particular example – Car 46/50 – was bought by the vendor’s son, Corporal James ‘Jim’ Oakland RMP, during October 2005 and is warranted to have covered just 28,200 miles from new. The accompanying service book carries entries at 1,229, 4,615, 7,532, 17,968 and 26,036 miles. Tragically, Jim Oakland was killed whilst on active service in Afghanistan. His wish that his brother and father should enjoy the Lotus has proven hard to fulfil with the result that it has seen minimal usage over the past fifteen years. Kept garaged it remains highly original and comes with both soft-top and hardtop roofs. Freshly MOT tested ahead of the sale, the Elise S2 is nonetheless overdue a cambelt service. A sought after limited edition, this low mileage Type 25 is offered for sale with original bookpack and Tracker paperwork etc. For more information, please contact: Damian Jones damian.jones@handh.co.uk 07855 493737

Registration No: Un-Reg (formerly EGE 675C) Chassis No: M/A2S4S/294488 MOT: Exempt • Part of the collection since 2002 • First registered in Glasgow and reputedly rallied by its first owner • Campaigned by Gerard Paton and Gerard McCosh in the 1973 Shell Oils / The Scotsman Rally Championship • Last driven in anger on the 1973 Tour of Mull from which it retired with the offside front wing damage it still sports today • Speedwell goodies, 998cc twin-carb engine, rollcage, internal fuel lines, Works-style dash etc • In need of total restoration or leave as is for display Supplied new in Glasgow (or its now defunct number plate ‘EGE 675C’ would imply), this battle-scarred Mini is rumoured to have been a competition car all its life. Still sporting a decal for the 1973 Scottish Rally Championship to its roof, the diminutive saloon is known to have contested that year’s Tour of Mull as car number ‘88’ with driver Gerard Paton and co-driver Gerard McCosh aboard. Unfortunately, the two Gerards’ efforts were curtailed by a collision which resulted in the damage still visible to the old warhorse’s offside front wing. Not driven in anger since, the Morris is a fascinating time capsule with its bolted-in rollcage, internally-routed fuel lines, auxiliary Speedwell gauges, bolstered front seats, Works-style dashboard extensions and 7,000rpm red-lined tacho etc. Competing in the 1-litre class, the Mini is fitted with a Riley-branded, twin carburettor-fed A-Series engine allied to four-speed manual transmission. The presence of a September 1964 dated window wiper motor suggests that the abused bodyshell might possibly be original. Substantially complete, the Mini would make a rewarding restoration project or could be left in its current state as a fascinating display piece.

Registration No: TTF 358 Chassis No: 270402 MOT: None • Manufactured by Brockhouse Engineering of Southport • The subject of an older restoration • Powered by a Morris 8 sidevalve engine (918cc) • In need of recommissioning / renovation Inspired by the Simplicity Manufacturing Co’s compact tractor designs which it had imported from Wisconsin during the late 1930s, the British Motor Boats (or B.M.B.) concern devised a similarly diminutive machine aimed at the ‘market garden’ and ‘walk behind’ sectors. Launched in 1947, the resultant B.M.B. President was built by Brockhouse Engineering of Southport. Enjoying an impressive power to weight ratio courtesy of the 918cc sidevalve four-cylinder engine it shared with the early Morris Minor, the newcomer helped many a vegetable plot owner combat post-WW2 rationing. Phased out of production in 1956, it was not uncommon to see B.M.B. Presidents working on smallholdings up until the 1980s. First registered in Lancashire on 9th September 1954 (or so its ‘TTF 358’ number plate would imply), chassis 270402 belonged to Colin Whittaker of Milnthorpe forty-three years later. Self-evidently the subject of past restoration work, the President joined the late Mr Lucas’s collection during early 2002. Barn stored, the tractor will require recommissioning prior to any further usage. An appealing and straightforward project.
