MOTORCYCLE RACING SILVERSTONE LIMITED EDITION POSTAL COVER AUTOGRAPHED BY KENNY ROBERTS Kenneth Leroy Roberts (born December 31, 1951) is an American former professional motorcycle racer and racing team owner. In 1978, he became the first American to win a Grand Prix motorcycle racing world championship. He was also a two-time winner of the A.M.A. Grand National Championship. Roberts is one of only four riders in American Motorcyclist Association (AMA) racing history to win the AMA Grand Slam, representing Grand National wins at a mile, half-mile, short-track, TT Steeplechase and road race events. Roberts left his mark on Grand Prix motorcycle racing as a world championship winning rider, a safety advocate, a racing team owner, and as a motorcycle engine and chassis constructor. His dirt track-based riding style changed the way Grand Prix motorcycles were ridden. Roberts' proposal to create a rival motorcycle championship in 1979 broke the Fédération Internationale de Motocyclisme (FIM) hegemony and increased the political clout of Grand Prix racers, which subsequently led to improved safety standards and a new era of professionalism in the sport. In 2000, Roberts was named a Grand Prix Legend by the FIM. He is also the father of 2000 Grand Prix world champion Kenny Roberts Jr. Ref G

1971 FIAT 500L SALOON Registration Number: JBY 492J Chassis Number: TBA Recorded Mileage: 40,300 kilometres Introduced in July 1957, the 'Nuova 500' was the original city car, with a clever monocoque bodyshell, independent suspension and four-wheel hydraulic drum brakes. Engineered by Dante Giacosa, the newcomer utilised a different mechanical layout to its 'Topolino' predecessor. Its rear-mounted, air-cooled, two-cylinder OHV 479cc engine was a first for Fiat. Finished in navy blue with a red vinyl interior, and subject to older restoration, this attractive 500 has been dry-stored in recent years, and will now benefit some recommissioning. Offered due to the sad passing of the owner, the Fiat will be sold with No Reserve to the highest bidder on the day.

1954 AUSTIN HEALEY 100/4 BN1 Registration Number: MUS 403 Chassis Number: BN1/156426 Recorded Mileage: 77,806 miles - UK delivered in RHD specification - In current family ownership since 1962 - Stored off the road since 1974 awaiting full restoration In 1951, when the established range of Healey cars was selling steadily but out of the price range of most enthusiasts, Donald Healey realised there was a market for a relatively low-priced but high performance sports car. A readily available, reliable and tuneable engine was required and BMC agreed to supply the 2,660cc four cylinder unit from its Austin A90 model, together with Austin’s three-speed with overdrive gearbox. For the chassis of the new car Healey and his son Geoffrey designed a simple but torsionally strong ladder frame using the A90’s independent coil spring/wishbone front suspension and a leaf-sprung rear axle located by Panhard rod, with drum brakes all round. Finally, an attractive, open two seater body was penned by Gerry Coker, the final rendition of which incorporated some last minute changes by Donald Healey himself. The result, launched to a surprised public at the 1952 London Motor Show, caused a sensation and met with immediate approval from press and enthusiasts alike. It looked superb with performance to match; producing 94bhp at 4,000rpm, it could achieve 111mph with the windscreen folded flat and 0-60mph acceleration in 10.3 seconds. Called simply the Healey 100, the new car also caught the attention of BMC supremo Leonard Lord who at once struck an agreement with Healey to market the car as the Austin Healey 100. Production began in May 1953 and it wasn’t long before the model was selling like hot cakes and featuring strongly in production racing on both sides of the Atlantic. This early 100-4 was first registered in May of 1954, finished in Ice Blue Metallic with complimenting dark blue leather trim. A locally owned car, MUS 403 was acquired in 1962 by the May family from its previous owner in Hampstead, London. Gifted from his father in the summer of 1964, the young owner enjoyed the Healey for a number of years, during which he met his wife-to-be. The Healey was taken on the newlywed’s honeymoon, and enjoyed for a number of years before being parked up in 1974 awaiting a restoration, which ultimately never commenced. Offered sadly due to the passing of its owner,, this untouched Healey is a prime candidate for full restoration. MUS 403 is supplied with a buff continuation log book, last MoT and insurance certificates from 1973 and tax disc to December 1974.

1988 FERRARI 412i Registration Number: E110 OFR Chassis Number: Recorded Mileage: 105,831 miles The Ferrari 365 GT4 2+2 was introduced in 1976 as the successor to the rather larger 365 GT 2+2. With its much sleeker looks the Ferrari 365, also designed by Pininfarina, remained in production with very few styling changes until 1989 and proved to be a great success for the company. The 412 was introduced in 1985 and was a technically much improved and modernised version of the classic design, whilst still retaining a timeless and elegant shape. With a displacement of nearly 5 litres, the V12 engine now produced a healthy 340 bhp and ABS was available for the first time in a Ferrari. The Ferrari 412i is the ultimate version of the 400-series of four-seat Grand Touring cars and remains highly respected for its performance, luxury and ease of operation. Just 574 in total were built, of which 85 were right-hand drive. This rare right-hand-drive example was first registered in April 1998 to a professor from Glasgow, who took delivery of the car via H.R. Owen. The car is supplied with extensive main dealer service history from 1989 to 2003, with a total of 14 services from 1989 through to 2003 at 97,953 miles. Subsequently the car was stored for some time before being recommissioned by marque specialist Bell Sport and Classic (supported by bills to the tune of £11,000). Presented in Chiaro Blue with Crema leather interior, this is a well estimated example of a fast and understated V12-engined Ferrari, the likes of which we may never see again.

1971 RELIANT SCIMITAR GTE CONVERTIBLE Registration Number: TBA Chassis Number: 452221 Recorded Mileage: 21,300 miles - In current ownership for over 30 years - Subject of a bodywork and trim restoration Following its first forays into the sports car market - the Sabre and Sabre Six - Reliant finally began to get it right in 1964 with the introduction of the Scimitar. The handsomely styled newcomer's coupe body was the work of the Ogle design studio, while beneath the skin there was a new chassis, plus the running gear and Ford 2.5-litre straight-six engine of the Sabre Six. The Scimitar's straight-line performance was excellent right from the start - 116mph and 0-60 in 11.4 seconds - and once the rear suspension had been revised (in 1965) it possessed handling to match. A little fewer than 300 were made before the arrival of the improved, Ford V6-engined versions in 1966. Introduced in October 1968, the trend-setting Scimitar GTE established an entirely new class: the sports estate. Based on the Tamworth firm's existing Scimitar GT coupé, the newcomer boasted a new chassis both longer and wider than its predecessor's while retaining the latter's basic running gear and 3.0-litre Ford V6 engine. Like the coupé, the glassfibre-bodied GTE was the work of Ogle Design, whose brilliant idea was the incorporation of a glass 'hatchback' rear door in a semi-fastback, estate-type 2+2 bodyshell. Blessed with strikingly good looks that would stand the test of time, the GTE was comfortable, practical and fast. The model proved a huge commercial success for Reliant and spawned a host of imitations from larger manufacturers. A 1971 model, this unique Scimitar is one of a handful converted into a targa-roofed cabriolet many years ago. The work was clearly performed to a good standard, the conversion being neat, stylish and well executed, with details such as additional air vents on the bonnet and the front spoiler. Our current vendor purchased the Scimitar over 30 years ago, and more recently has treated it to a sympathetic restoration. The body was stripped and refinished in dark metallic grey paintwork, set off by classic Wolfrace wheels on each corner. The interior was retrimmed in leather/alcantara, with new carpeting, full mohair hood, tonneau cover and hood bag, and a Moto-Lita steering wheel. Interestingly at some point the Scimitar was fitted with a lifting system, negating the need for a separate jack for removing the road wheels. Since the work was completed the Scimitar has been used in the summer time and for holidays to France, during which it ran very well with a decent amount of 'oomph' on the autoroute. The car has been dry stored recently and will benefit from a new service and MoT certificate prior to sale. A cool, interesting, unusual and capable car, this sensibly estimated sportscar makes the ideal summer companion. Note: Interested parties should note the private registration number ‘PEN 19’ will be sold via separate negotiation, the car will be offered instead on an age-related plate.

1974 MG MIDGET Registration Number: PVV 294N Chassis Number: G-AN5/147935-G Recorded Mileage: c.16,500 miles Launched in Monte-Carlo in May 1958 as a low-cost entry model, the Sprite was designed by Donald Healey but made by BMC in Abingdon, Oxford. So it was hardly surprising that the success of the design would lead to an MG version, the “Midget”. The new Midget was a sports car in the traditional MG mould; small, inexpensive, fast (enough), and safer with predictable handling. Above all, it was a fun! The Midget evolved over the years from a badge-engineered version of the Austin-Healey Sprite. In 1964 the new Midget Mark II was revealed, with a new and more comfortable cockpit, wind up windows, quarter-lights, better instrumentation, lockable doors and the option of wire wheels. The biggest change however was improved rear suspension and a boost in performance, the 1098cc engine now produced a heady 59bhp due to a new three-branch manifold and cylinder head improvements. In 1966 the Mark III was announced with more power via the 1275cc 64bhp engine derived from the Mini Cooper ‘S’. The hood was now permanently attached to the car with an improved mechanism making it much easier to use, and to extend its range the Mark III received a larger fuel tank. The MG Midget MkIII gained a separate master cylinder for the clutch, and a permanently attached hood with an improved mechanism making it much easier to use. This more desirable Round Wheel Arch variant was first registered in May 1974, finished in a very period shade of Citroen Yellow with Black trim, wire wheels and oil cooler, and sold via agent Taylors Limited of Falmouth in Cornwall. By the early 2000s the Midget resided in Northern Ireland, with two owners before returning to the UK in the last few years. In around 2012-14 the Midget benefited from many improvements, with parts receipts on file for amongst other things, a replacement fuel tank, various hoses, brackets, seals, fuel pipes, filters, fixings, head gasket, clutch master and slave cyinders and other service items. In current ownership since 2021, the MG has also been treated to new front brake discs and pads, rear brake wheel cylinders, and wheel bearings. Driven to the auction by the vendor, we understand the MG starts and drive very nicely. The interior trim is in good order, however the paintwork unfortunately has suffered from microblistering on most panels and will require attention. The Midget comes with soft top, separate tonneau cover and hood cover. Offered with a current V5C, history file, and both sets of keys, this Midget can be enjoyed to the full this summer and cosmetically improved as and when time and funds allow.

1938 ROVER 12HP SPORTS SALOON Registration Number: ETV 99 Chassis Number: 841520 Recorded Mileage: c.29,000 miles Rover’s 14/6 model was launched in 1934 on a lengthened under-slung chassis but retained its predecessor's 1,577cc, six-cylinder, overhead-valve engine. The new frame enabled the adoption of low-line bodies, among them attractive ‘streamline’ versions of both saloon and coupé. Chassis specification included a four-speed freewheel gearbox, hydraulic brakes, Luvax-Bijur automatic lubrication and electric windscreen wipers. For 1939 the 14hp was revamped with a new 1,901cc ‘six’ developed from the four-cylinder unit of the contemporary Ten. This example was first registered in April of 1938, finished in black with a dark green leather interior. The car later found its way to the Isle of Wight where it resided for a number of years before travelling back to the mainland in recent years. Acquired in 2022 from deceased estate, the Rover has recently had the carburettor rebuilt, is complete with a number of spares, and is being sold as a running car for restoration.

1965 FIAT 500F SALOON Registration Number: TEU 235C Chassis Number: 110F0954214 Recorded Mileage: 13,710 kilometres - Subject to older restoration - Offered with No Reserve Introduced in July 1957, the 'Nuova 500' was the original city car, with a clever monocoque bodyshell, independent suspension and four-wheel hydraulic drum brakes. Engineered by Dante Giacosa, the newcomer utilised a different mechanical layout to its 'Topolino' predecessor. Its rear-mounted, air-cooled, two-cylinder OHV 479cc engine was a first for Fiat. Inheriting its larger 499.5cc unit from the short-lived 'Sport' variant, the 500 D debuted in 1960. With its rear-hinged 'suicide' doors and generous sunroof, the diminutive four-seater weighed in at a little over 500kgs. As such, it was able to extract a 60mph plus top speed from just 17.5bhp. These suicide door and crash-box variants are now thin on the ground and one of the more collectable Fiat 500 models. Between 1965 and 1969 the F carried the same badging as the D, but the two models are distinguishable by the positioning of their door hinges. The D has "suicide doors", the F (produced from June 1965) at last featured front-hinged doors. This 1965 500F has been in current ownership since the early 2000s, having been restored some years ago. Since being returned to the road the little Fiat has been seldom used in recent years, having been driven into its current garage and dry stored for some time. As such the car will now require recommissioning before use. A restored example of the popular Fiat 500, and we are sure will prove to be a hugely enjoyable addition to the garage. The Fiat is offered with No Reserve.

2002 FERRARI 360 MODENA F1 Registration Number: F1 ALD Chassis Number: ZFFYR51C000130696 Recorded Mileage: 44,000 miles - Full dealer/specialist service history - Offered with all books and tools Ferrari’s most successful model since the 308, the F355 was always going to be a tough act to follow. Its successor needed to be ground breaking and revolutionary; two words which, without doubt the 360 lived up to. Starting with a clean sheet of paper in designing the 360 Modena, the new car attracted superlatives that put even its illustrious predecessor in the shade. Just about the only item carried over from the F355 was its glorious V8 engine, enlarged from 3.5 to 3.6 litres for the 360, producing 400bhp. In every other respect the 360 was entirely new, the most striking break with Ferrari tradition being the body’s frontal treatment; gone was the omnipresent oval grille, replaced by two separate intakes set low into the front wings. A larger car than the F355, the 360 owed its radical new shape to the quest for increased downforce, generating four times as much as its predecessor yet achieving the impressively low Cd of 0.33. There was further innovation beneath the skin: a lighter, stiffer aluminium space frame monocoque replacing the old tubular steel arrangement, resulting in a dry weight around 220lbs less than that of the F355. The 360’s on-the-road dynamics constituted a significant advance, its best time around Ferrari’s Fiorano test track being some three seconds faster than the F355’s. Finished in the classic Ferrari colour scheme of Rosso Corsa with a cream leather interior, this 360 Modena F1 coupe was first registered in November 2002. Over the intervening years the 360 has been maintained either by Ferrari dealers or specialists, with services at 4,906 miles (Stratstone), 8,831 miles (Stratstone, inc. belts), 14,706 miles (Graypaul), 19,139 miles (Graypaul), 25,378 miles (Reeder, inc. belts and clutch), 27,822 miles (Reeder), 30,990 miles (Reeder), 31,957 miles (Reeder), 32,862 miles (Independent), 35,067 miles (Independent), 35,489 miles (Independent), 38253 (Independent), and 42,129 miles (Bob Houghton, inc. belts). We understand the Ferrari was formerly subject to an insurance claim (marked as a Category D) which the vendor believes was as a result of minor damage to the front bumper and wing, professionally repaired at the time. Very well maintained, this sensibly estimated Ferrari is offered with all books and leather wallet, receipts and original tools.

1937 FIAT TOPOLINO Registration Number: TBA Chassis Number: 516289 Recorded Mileage: 46,700 kilometres - In current ownership for over 25 years Better equipped than many cars twice its size, the FIAT 500, soon nicknamed ‘Topolino’ (Little Mouse), brought a degree of refinement hitherto unknown to small cars when launched in 1936. Lockheed hydraulic brakes, independent front suspension and 12-volt electrics were all features while an engine mounted ahead of the front axle helped maximise cabin space for the two occupants. The 569cc, four-cylinder, sidevalve motor produced a modest 13bhp, but as the Topolino weighed little more than half a ton, it could nevertheless manage a respectable 50mph-plus under favourable conditions. For most buyers though, the frugal (up-to-50mpg) fuel consumption would have been the major attraction. Nearly 520,000 were sold in total before its replacement (the ‘Cinquecento’) was introduced in 1957. This pretty example was first delivered in June 1937, and since the late 1990s joining an important British-based classic car collection, sitting alongside a number of classic Fiats and other exotic machinery. The Fiat was brought into the UK a number of years ago but has only been used on private roads, and as yet not road registered. Having been dry stored in recent times, the Fiat will require recommissioning and UK registration before being pressed into regular use once more. The Topolino is finished in an attractive shade of burgundy with black wings, contrasting tan trim, and is complete with original tools. A charming little motor car, which we are sure will provide many hours of fun and enjoyment in the coming summer months, this delightful ‘Little Mouse’ will be sold on a bill of sale with a Fiat Classiche Certificato Di Origine.

1968 BMW 2000 NEU KLASSE Registration Number: OKC 10F Chassis Number: 1225247 Recorded Mileage: 28,051 miles Launched in 1965, the larger-engined BMW 2000 was heralded by Autocar as ‘the best BMW yet’. Produced for 10 years from 1962, the New Class (Neue Klasse) models are credited with saving BMW after the company's financial crisis of the 1950s, and establishing the identity BMW as a maker of sporting saloon cars. The first New Class vehicle was the 1500, a 4-door compact executive car with BMW’s new overhead cam 4-cylinder engine. In 1965, the 2000 C and 2000 CS luxury coupés were added to the range. The new E9 coupes replaced the 2000C and CS coupes in 1969, whilst the four door variants were phased out due to the introduction of the E12 5-Series in 1972. This rare right-hand-drive example, one of around 40 remaining on UK roads, was first purchased at a Liverpool-based BMW agent in March 1968 for £1,900. After the first owner sadly fell ill, the BMW was garaged for years before being acquired and restored by the second owner, passing into long term family ownership, and then being acquired by the last private owner. We understand the BMW has previously been subject to a mechanical overhaul by marque specialists, including the automatic gearbox. The body shows some patina but presents well still, the two-tone burgundy and black leatherette trim remains in excellent condition, whilst older MoT certificates indicate the recorded mileage to be genuine. A very usable and rare car, this classic BMW makes a stylish classic which can be enjoyed all year round.

2002 MASERATI CAMBIOCORSA SPYDER Registration Number: YG02BZD Chassis Number: ZAMBB18C000005658 Recorded Mileage: c.43,000 miles - Low mileage example in excellent colour scheme Unveiled at the 2002 Detroit Show, the 177mph Maserati Coupé (a.k.a. 4200 GT) was styled by Giorgetto Giugiaro of Italdesign, a man with an impressive curriculum vitae, to say the least. Both Coupé and Spyder shared the normally aspirated Ferrari/Maserati F136 V8 engine, which produces 385bhp and 332lb/ft of torque. Beautifully engineered, the Coupé does feature a slightly longer wheelbase and a slightly lower kerb weight but while the fixed roof version remains the driver’s choice, the soft-top adds a multidimensional element that many prefer. The Spyder is a very safe car too, featuring roll-over bars behind each seat as well as the same range of dynamic aids and interventions as the Coupé. The roof is also deployed electronically for extra style points, taking around 30 seconds each to furl and unfurl. Lowered, it tucks behind a very neat metal cover, giving a clean look to the Spyder’s lines. The Spyder continued until 2007, at which point it and the Coupé were replaced by the new GranTurismo model. This attractive 2002 Maserati Cambiocorsa Spyder is finished in a stylish combination of Grigio Metallic with a wine red leather interior. The Spyder is fitted with a stainless exhaust system and other useful options such as navigation, parking sensors and remote locking. Complete with original book pack, this low mileage Maserati has been serviced six times, the last time in 2021 at more or less the current mileage. The Maserati will come to the auction with a fresh MoT certificate. Ferrari engines, Italian styling, and modern practicality for under £15,000, in our opinion the Maserati Spyder is a hugely compelling proposition.

1953 LAGONDA 3-LITRE COUPE Registration Number: KKU 62 Chassis Number: LAG/50/539 Engine Number: VB6J/64 - Matching numbers engine and gearbox - Comprehensively restored in the early 2000s - Recently recommissioned at a cost exceeding £5,000 Shortly after peace returned to Britain following the end of the 2nd World War, David Brown acquired the famous sporting marques of both Lagonda and Aston-Martin, locating the new firm at the Feltham works in Hanworth Park West London. Post-war Lagondas were treated to a new W.O.Bentley-designed straight six twin-cam engine, which went on to power Lagonda and Aston Martin models into the late 50’s, most famously the highly successful DB3S. The 1948 2.6-litre Lagonda was available as a 4-door saloon and from 1949 a 2-door drophead coupé joined the line up, Although the advanced chassis design and twin cam 6 cylinder engined car impressed dynamically, the styling was considered somewhat bulbous and staid. Following a beautifully redesigned body courtesy of Tickfords and the addition of the enlarged 3 Litre 140 bhp engine, the DB model of 1953 was certainly exquisite, capable and exclusive. With performance to match, the new model topped out well over 100 mph, very respectable for the early 1950s. With fully independent suspension all round mounted to its cruciform chassis, front coil springs, torsion bar rear suspension, and rack and pinion steering, this was cutting edge technology for the period. W.O. had clearly excelled himself, again! The 3-Litre was originally offered as a Tickford-bodied 2-door coupé and drop-head, both coachbuilt by the now David Brown-owned company, Tickford. The body was hand-formed in the traditional manner, aluminium over an ash frame, while in typical Lagonda tradition the interior was opulent and exquisitely finished with the best hides and veneers. Within less than 2 years though the Coupé was discontinued replaced by a four door saloon, which ultimately became the most prolific version. According to 'David Brown & Sons Lagonda & Aston Martin 1860 – 1960' by Alan Heard, only 267 DB 3 Litre cars were produced in total and just 65 of these were made in the 2-door coupé specification as presented here. It is believed that only a dozen or so 2-door coupés are known to exist today, with around less than half of this number being roadworthy, by far the rarest of all the DB Lagonda 6 cylinder cars. Our example, KKU 62, is one of the first of the earliest 3-litre models, (only the first 23 cars produced had the LAG/50 chassis numbers before changing to LB/290 numbers) featuring a number of identifying details such as glass rear lights, semaphore trafficators set into the rear wings, smaller and delicate styled twin rear petrol cap fillers, a heater air scoop on the front scuttle panel, tripod headlamps, also an early dash configuration with the ignition switch cluster set to the left of the dash centre and rounded windscreen corners. It is understood that ‘KKU’ had a folding canvas sunroof early in her life and this was later replaced with a Webasto unit in the early 1960s, however she still retains the 50's chrome locking handle. First registered in March 1954 via dealer Charles Sidney Limited of Bradford to the owner of woollen mill S.Lyles and Co. of Dewsbury, the Lagonda moved up to Hawick in Scotland, before traveling down to Middlesex and then Oxfordshire. In 1965 ‘KKU’ was on the move once more, this time to Connecticut in the United States for 14 years, then on to Oklahoma for 22 years, before finally traveling once more, this time to Belgium in the early 2000s.The new owner decided a rebuild was in order, and so the Lagonda was treated to a comprehensive body off restoration. Shortly afterwards the 3-Litre was acquired by a large Kuwaiti-based collection, where it remained until its recent repatriation to the UK. Now in the care of a devoted Lagonda enthusiast, the 3-litre has been thoroughly recommissioned at a cost exceeding £5,000, to include all fluids and filters, a comprehensive front suspension rebuild and a brake and fuel system overhaul. Additionally, various electrical components have been replaced, as have missing original parts and period accessories. Pleasingly the car was at the same time reunited with its original Bradford-issued registration number. This wonderful, and very rare Lagonda, starts we understand, on the button and drives very well, participating in an AMOC Classic Motor Hub Treasure Hunt, and April 2023's Drive It Day road rally. The 3-Litre also represented the Feltham Lagonda class in the 75th Anniversary of the David Brown years at the Aston Martin Heritage Trust Brooklands event. Finished in a period correct AML shade of Peony Red with light tan leather hides, this is a beautiful example which has covered only nominal mileage since restoration. The 3-Litre is offered for sale with an original factory leather-bound handbook, the correct Lagonda Factory sales brochure, plus a pleasing history file, which includes a copy of the original AML Factory Build Sheet along with the Feltham factory service record, a copy of the West Yorkshire registration book entry, 1960s DVLA documents, period Lagonda Club magazine article referencing 'KKU', Oklahoma title certificates, Belgian registration documents, sales invoices from B.V. Cars NL, NOVA certificate, a current V5 registration document, and a large amount of recent receipts for the recommissioning parts.

1976 MERCEDES-BENZ 450SL Registration Number: ROD 175R Chassis Number: 107044-22-065689 Recorded Mileage: 119,550 miles - Offered at No Reserve The SLs of this era (the 107 chassis) really established themselves as an icon of quality and success on the Continent as well as the Americas. Unlike the previous SL range, these cars were rugged and durable and could accumulate high mileage and still remain reliable with just the most basic of care. Volume production of the first R107 car, the 350 SL, started in April 1971 alongside the last of the W113 cars; the 350 SLC followed in October. The early 1971 350SL are very rare and were available with an optional 4 speed fluid coupling automatic gearbox. In addition, the rare 1971 cars were fitted with Bosch electronic fuel injection. Sales in North America began in 1972, and cars wore the name 350 SL, but had a larger 4.5L V8 with 3 speed auto (and were renamed 450 SL for model year 1973); the big V8 became available on other markets with the official introduction of the 450 SL/SLC on non-North American markets in March 1973. US cars sold from 1972 through 1975 used the Bosch D Jetronic fuel injection system, an early electronic engine management system This 450SL was first delivered in August 1976, finished in Silver Green Metallic with a black interior. The SL has been garage-stored for a number of years and is now offered for sale due to the passing of its owner. The SL is offered as is and will be sold to the highest bidder, without keys or registration document. A timeless classic, this beefy V8-engined SL is the ideal candidate for restoration.

FIAT 500L SALOON Registration Number: TBA Chassis Number: 110F.3087750 Recorded Mileage: TBA - Rare RHD example - Offered for full restoration Introduced in July 1957, the 'Nuova 500' was the original city car, with a clever monocoque bodyshell, independent suspension and four-wheel hydraulic drum brakes. Engineered by Dante Giacosa, the newcomer utilised a different mechanical layout to its 'Topolino' predecessor. Its rear-mounted, air-cooled, two-cylinder OHV 479cc engine was a first for Fiat. Part of a small Fiat 500 collection, this rarer RHD example, in blue with a tan vinyl interior, is a candidate for full restoration. The vehicle has been partially stripped for a restoration which was unfortunately never completed. The engine is currently out of the car but can be collected from the vendor's premises in Hertfordshire, along with any other missing items. Offered due to the sad passing of the owner, the Fiat will be sold with No Reserve to the highest bidder on the day.

1971 FIAT 500 GIARDINIERA (RHD) Registration Number: KUW 494K Chassis Number: TBA Recorded Mileage: 40,261 miles - Rare RHD specification - Offered for restoration, with No Reserve Replacement for FIAT’s much-loved 500 ‘Topolino’, the Nuova 500 debuted in 1957. A radical departure from its predecessor’s essentially pre-war design, FIAT’s new baby featured unitary construction of the body/chassis, an opening fabric roof and all-independent suspension, while carrying its engine at the rear. The 479cc power unit was an air-cooled overhead-valve twin and the gearbox a four-speeder. The basic 500’s austerity was not well received, prompting the introduction of a revised and better equipped version endowed with refinements such as wind-down windows, upholstered rear seat, column-mounted switchgear stalks, and hubcaps. Introduced in 1960, the 500D used the 499.5cc engine of the 500 Sport in de-tuned (17.5bhp) form. In the spring of 1960, a Giardiniera (gardener) station wagon had been added to the 500 range. Built on a 4” longer wheelbase than the sedan, the Giardiniera featured a single side-hinged rear door and carried its engine horizontally beneath the rear load platform, thus increasing available luggage space. Testing a Giardiniera in 1961, Autocar magazine was mightily impressed by FIAT’s new baby: ‘The Italians match their affinity with micro-motoring to a happy flair for making little cars really well, and within the limitations of its body dimensions and engine power the Giardiniera is a real masterpiece.’ The miniature station wagon was found capable of carrying four adults and 2.5cwt of luggage (alternatively, one adult and 4cwt) while returning an impressive 46.8mpg over 1,000 miles. The maximum speed achieved was exactly 60mph. From the spring of 1968 Giardiniera production was transferred to Autobianchi and finally ceased in 1977. First registered in 1971, this original RHD Giardiniera has recently formed part of a small collection of Fiat 500s. Finished in white with a tan vinyl interior, the vehicle is the ideal candidate for restoration. Offered due to the sad passing of the owner, this rare RHD Giardiniera will be sold with No Reserve to the highest bidder on the day.

1972 VAUXHALL VIVA HC Registration Number: DOF 481K Chassis Number: 931112E174253 Recorded Mileage: 77,357 miles After several years of decline, the Vauxhall Viva helped revive the fortunes of the Luton-based manufacturer. The small saloon went head-to-head with Ford’s Escort and Cortina, selling between 1963 and 1979 1.5-million examples. The HC Viva was mechanically the same as the earlier HB but with more modern styling and greater interior space. From 1973 the entry 1256 cc models staying as Vivas with an optional 1.8 litre engine if automatic transmission was chosen. The 1.8 and 2.3 litre models took on more luxurious trim and were rebadged as the Magnum in the USA. At the same time, the Firenza coupé was given a radical makeover with an aerodynamic nose and beefed up 2.3 litre twin carburettor engine mated to a ZF five-speed gearbox, turning it into the HP (High Performance) Firenza. The American influence was still obvious on the design, with narrow horizontal rear lamp clusters, flat dashboard with a 'letterbox' style speedometer and a pronounced mid bonnet hump that was echoed in the front bumper. The HC ran through to 1979, being replaced by the new Astra model. This well maintained 1972 Viva HC is offered complete with its original bill of sale (for £826) and file of MoT certificates, also service and maintenance invoices over the years. A useful upgrade is the Weber carburettor conversion, giving enhanced performance and economy. Subject to a previous restoration, the bodywork has been repainted and presents well, as does the vinyl interior trim. Usefully the Viva is fitted with a retro Caliber stereo with auxiliary input and Bluetooth connectivity. Driven regularly, the Viva comes complete with a set of workshop manuals, two sets of keys, original sales brochure, and a number of useful spare parts. The Viva shows now just over 77,000 miles recorded, and is nicely presented in Henley Blue with a Black vinyl interior. A rare sight on British roads and a really fun entry level classic.

1976 TRIUMPH T21 TRIALS Registration Number: NUS 782P Frame Number: 3TA1197 Recorded Mileage: 5,369 miles The Twenty-One was the beginning of a new range of motorcycles from Triumph that would eventually include the 5TA, T100A, and end with the TR5T Adventurer (known as the C Class). Its 350cc engine was very reliable and made the motorcycle popular as a touring and commuting model. The cylinder block was cast iron with an alloy head and separate rocker boxes, and dry sump lubrication. Rebranded the 3TA in 1959, the model continued in production until 1966. There are two explanations for the Twenty One name spelt out in full on the side panels. The first explanation is that it celebrates the Twenty First of the Triumph motorcycle company. The second explanation is that the US export model was called the Twenty One after its engine displacement of 21 cubic inches, which equates to 350cc. Offered for sale is this slightly modified 3TA, registered in 1976 to the T90 style, the successor of the Triumph 3TA. An older restoration, having not been used for some months the bike may require some recommissioning before being used.

1964 FIAT ABARTH 595 Registration Number: DCK 108B Chassis Number: 110D595595 Recorded Mileage: 2,900 kilometres Austrian-born engineer Carlo Abarth left Cisitalia in 1948 to set up his own independent tuning business in Turin, starting with the production of bespoke induction and exhaust systems, later to expand into performance kits for (mainly FIAT) production cars. Carlo adopted his Scorpio birth sign as the logo for his company and soon evolved into a car manufacturer in his own right. Abarth later built a highly successful series of aerodynamically-stylish sports prototypes and production cars. FIAT most often supplied the body shells or partly completed cars, which Abarth modified and the FIAT/Abarth collaboration benefited both concerns, particularly in motorsport, since the many class victories captured by Abarth in fierce competition throughout Europe shone a favourable spotlight on Fiat's range of motor cars. Always innovative and competitive, Abarth was absorbed into the FIAT empire in 1972. The 595 was a reworked version of FIAT’s 500; a new big-bore cylinder block boosted the previously 499cc air-cooled twin to 593cc. Higher-compression pistons, re-worked inlet ports, a special camshaft and exhaust system, and a larger carburettor helped raise power from 22 to 30bhp, though the biggest gain was in mid-range torque. Abarth's conversion halved the standard car's acceleration times and gave the 595 with a top speed of more than 75mph (120km/h). Lowered suspension and wider wheels and tyres helped the baby FIAT utilise the increased performance. Those still not satisfied could opt for the 595SS (Sprint Speciale), with 34bhp on tap and an 80mph top speed. badges inside and out. These little cars raced, rallied, and hill-climbed all over Europe, winning countless saloon championships along the way. Based on a 1964 Fiat 500D with rear-hinged ‘suicide’ doors, this lovely example was converted to Abarth 595 specification in period, and in 2004 imported into the UK from Italy. In 2017 the bodywork was stripped to bare metal and refinished in the correct shade of Bianco, and the correct Abarth badging refitted. This 595 conversion is fitted with period-correct Abarth engine components, rare Abarth wheels, period-style bucket seats, an original Abarth steering wheel and the correct Jaeger/Abarth instrument panel. In the history file we find a letter from the Automobile Club D’Italia to confirm details of the car, a copy of the 'Abarth 595/695' book mentions this chassis and includes a period black/white image of the car during a road rally in period. Whilst this is encouraging, at this stage we do not claim this to be a genuine factory-built car, so advise potential buyers to do their own research before bidding. This great little Abarth presents very nicely and we understand is hugely enjoyable to drive, with nippy performance and tight handling. A rare example fitted with a number of desirable Abarth tuning parts, and a super addition to any collection.

1974 MGB ROADSTER Registration Number: SKJ 678M Chassis Number: GHNS 3444549 Recorded Mileage: 11,208 miles - Subject of previous restoration - Recently serviced prior to sale The MGB was first introduced in May 1962 as a direct replacement for the MGA. Performance was brisk with power supplied by a 1798cc four cylinder iron block engine set within a monocoque lightweight body shell with crumple zones incorporated. October 1965 saw the introduction of the GT and was based on the already popular roadster. Designed by Pininfarina, the new GT sported a hatchback giving useful access to the rear luggage space and a rear bench seat that enabled the car to be called a 2+2. Although acceleration was slightly slower than the roadster, top speed was better by 5mph due to the increased aerodynamic efficiency. Subject to an previous restoration by marque specialist Renaissance MGs, this smart late chrome-bumpered MGB has also been retrimmed in the past, and fitted with a replacement hood. Finished in Damask Red with larger minilite wheels and lower profile tyres, the MG has been recently recommissioned after a period of storage. This attractive example is supplied with a current V5C, handbook, photographs and receipts for works completed, a number of older MoT certificates, and both sets of keys.

1973 JENSEN INTERCEPTOR SERIES III Registration Number: DDL 105L Chassis Number: 136-8309 Recorded Mileage: 44,470 miles - Running/driving unfinished restoration project - Offered with No Reserve More than any of its previous models, the Interceptor of the Sixties firmly established Jensen as a producer of stylish, high performance and hand-built cars. The prototype Interceptor appeared in 1965, a two seater convertible with alloy coachwork, a third transverse rear seat and either 4.5 or 6.3 litre Chrysler engine. Although well received, Jensen realised the market was really for closed cars and entrusted the design to Vignale in Italy. Launched at the 1966 London Motor Show, the stylish Interceptor proved a star attraction. Beneath its now steel coachwork the substantial parallel tube chassis featured independent wishbone/coil spring front suspension with a live, leaf-sprung rear axle located by Panhard rod and disc brakes all-round. Power came from a 6,276cc Chrysler V8, producing 325bhp at 4,600rpm and an impressive 4251b.ft at 2,800rpm, mated to a three-speed Chrysler automatic transmission. This allowed for a top speed of 133mph and 0-60mph in just 7.4 seconds. Inside, Connolly leather and Wilton carpets ensured luxury while the dashboard was comprehensively equipped. In October 1968, shortly after power steering became standard, the Interceptor was announced in Mk II form with larger fuel tank, reclining seats, restyled fascia and optional air conditioning. The Mk III appeared in October 1971, boasting a 7,212cc engine, ventilated disc brakes, alloy wheels and restyled interior. This later Mark III was first registered in March 1973, more recently being taken off the road for a restoration which unfortunately has not progressed. The vendor advises us that the shell is in fact very sound, furthermore the car is currently being fitted with a new starter motor and will run and drive prior to the auction. The Jensen has been partly dismantled for restoration but is complete, the leather seating is also in good condition and can be reused. We understand a new V5C will need to be applied for upon purchase. An eminently worthwhile project, this Interceptor is offered with No Reserve to the highest bidder on the day.

1922 WILLYS OVERLAND CROSSLEY Registration Number: YI 2409 Chassis Number: ED1922 Recorded Mileage: N/A Formed in 1919 and jointly owned by Crossley Motors and Willys-Overland, Willys Overland Crossley had manufacturing bases in Stockport, Berlin, and Antwerp. The intention was to produce a range of cars below the Crossleys in size and price. Crossley Motors provided the aircraft factory they had recently bought from the government after the end of World War I, which was large enough to include a covered test track. Production started in 1920 with the assembly of kits bought in from the Willys-Overland Canadian plant, starting with British bodies mounted on the Model 4's chassis. Over 40,000 vehicles (including 7,000 lorries) were made between 1919 and 1932. This impressive 30hp Open Tourer was built in the Cheshire Crossley factory in 1922, fitted with a powerful long stroke engine and three-speed gearbox. Later to find itself in Ireland for most of its life, the Willys is now offered from a small collection of vintage cars. The car starts, runs and stops, but as it has been stored in recent years it will no doubt benefit from some recommissioning. Still fitted with lots of nice period brass fittings, and supplied with a UK V5 document, this is a charmingly original vintage tourer which we are sure will be fun to own and simple to maintain.

1966 SUNBEAM TIGER MARK 1 Registration Number: SLG 882D Chassis Number: 9472959.HRD.FE Recorded Mileage: 6,061 miles - In current family ownership since 1969 - Subject to older restoration, will now benefit recommissioning In part designed by sports car legend Carroll Shelby and racing supremo Ken Miles, the Cobra-killing Sunbeam Tiger was the real deal - a full-fat, high-performance version of the Rootes group’s popular Alpine sports car. The Rootes Group had ambitions to move onto the global stage with their products, which, in the US at least, meant they needed bigger engines with more power to challenge the big boys. Rootes initially approached Ferrari to redesign their standard 4-cylinder engine, hoping to trade on a ‘Powered by Ferrari’ moniker. Ultimately discussions with Ferrari were fruitless, however an alternative presented itself when Grand Prix driver Jack Brabham suggested a Ford V8, inspired no doubt by the success that British company AC had with the Cobra. Sunbeam asked Carroll Shelby to produce one functional prototype, which went to Great Britain for evaluation alongside one built on home turf. The Shelby-developed car was the clear winner! Development and production of the new “Tiger'' was then contracted to Jensen Motors Limited. Rootes made two series of the Tiger, Marks I and II, with 260cu and 289cu V8 motors respectively. The Tiger was popular with the public at the time, however due to financial difficulties for the parent company the model was ultimately doomed. When Rootes were bought out by Chrysler in 1967, the thought of producing a car with an engine supplied by a major competitor was just not palatable, and so the Tiger ceased production in 1967. This low ownership example was first delivered in the summer of 1966, finished in light blue and registered to Wood Lane Garage of Hale in Cheshire. A year later the Tiger was in private hands, selling once more in 1967 to Lancashire Cheshire Car Rentals. Our vendor’s father acquired the Tiger in August of 1969, enjoying it for a number of years before handing the car down to our vendor in 1987. It was decided a few years later that a restoration was due, and so the Tiger was comprehensively restored by the family in 1992, covering very little mileage since. Finished in a bright shade of red, with a stainless exhaust and Minilite wheels, the original steel wheels with trims are available, as is the hard top and tonneau cover. The Tiger has been garage-stored in recent years and will benefit from recommissioning, attention to the braking, and minor cosmetic improvement to the paintwork and trim. The Sunbeam is complete with a number of MoT certificates from 1992 to 2022, original logbook and current V5C, workshop manual, and photographic record of restoration. A true classic of the 1960s, with a little further TLC this open-topped hotrod will be ready to tear up the streets once more!

1966 MORRIS COOPER 1275 'S' Registration Number: PUB 536D Chassis Number: 1408 Recorded Mileage: TBA - First delivered to New Zealand - Matching engine and chassis - Subject to previous comprehensive restoration Designed by Alex Issigonis in 1959, a new concept in car design was born. With a monocoque shell, transversely mounted engine and front wheel drive, the new 'Mini', soon became popular across a broad spectrum of the population. The potential for competition use was soon seen by John Cooper; BMC were finally persuaded by John Cooper and the two worked together in culminating the birth of the Austin Mini Cooper and the Morris Mini Cooper in 1961. Victories in the 1964, 1965 and 1967 Monte-Carlo Rallies set the Mini on the road to fame but probably the greatest publicity was gained from their, somewhat unfair, disqualification for lighting irregularities in the 1966 event after coming in 1st, 2nd and 3rd. A more powerful Mini Cooper, dubbed the 'S', was developed in tandem and released in 1963. Approximately 2,500 Mk. II Cooper S were built making it one of the rarest versions of this very collectible motor car. First registered in 1966, this lovely Mini Cooper S was built under licence from BMC for the Australian market. As per standard production methods, the body and suspension were assembled in Australia, with a Cooper S 1275cc engine and gearbox shipped from the UK for completion. This Cooper S was specified with wind-up windows, twin fuel tanks, unique trim items and hydrolastic suspension. Delivered new to New Zealand and first registered on 1st January 1966, we understand this early example covered around 100,000 miles over a 35 year period. By the turn of the millennium a restoration was due, and so in 2001 the Mini’s paint was stripped, repaired as required, repainted and reassembled. The engine and other mechanicals were stripped and rebuilt to factory specifications. According to the Australian Cooper S register, the engine and body numbers are matching. After completion the Cooper was on the move to join a collection in the U.S. where it remained for a number of years, prior to being sold to a Canadian gentleman who had a passion for British cars. The Mini was used sparingly in Canada, mainly for car meets in the summer months. On the move once more, the Mini was acquired by a local British enthusiast who imported the car into the UK, attended to a number of minor detail items, fitted a rev. counter and retrimmed the dash covering. Tuned on a rolling road not long ago, and supplied with a V5C registration document, history folder and jack, this well travelled Cooper S looks lovely and we are sure will prove to be hugely enjoyable to own and drive.

1989 JAGUAR XJ40 3.6 Registration Number: F471 RFB Chassis Number: SAJJFALH3AA576567 Recorded Mileage: 103,131 miles - Two recorded owners from new - Offered with No Reserve The first all-new Jaguar saloon since the Series 1 XJ6 of 1968, the XJ40 was introduced at the 1986 Motor Show. A new Jaguar saloon under the code number XJ40 had been proposed as early as 1972, the final styling proposal being adopted by 1980. The longest development programme in Jaguar’s history, the new car was also the most stringently tested model that Jaguar had produced up to that time, with 250 prototypes and development cars covering over five million miles. The model featured a new engine family, state of the art electronic technology, and a unique J-gate automatic transmission. The XJ40 was powered by the AJ6 six-cylinder engine, replacing the classic XK engine in Jaguar’s saloon range, in 3.6 and 2.9 litre versions. The all-new body had significantly improved build methods over previous models, but its angular styling and six-light design were a break with Jaguar traditions, and perhaps for that reason, the XJ40 is sometimes seen as controversial. The XJ40 was later replaced by the much-revised X300 which marked a return from the angular styling of the XJ40 to a more traditional Jaguar look. This XJ40 is a 1989 3.6 model, with just two recorded owners from new, the current since July of 2003. A running and driving car, the Jaguar has been dry stored off the road since the passing of the former keeper. Offered with V5C and key, the XJ40 will be sold with no reserve to the highest bidder on the day.
