Supplied with desirable hardtopChevrolet 383c.i., 5.7 litre, V8 engineFounded in 1968, the Dax Cobra has steadily established itself as a much sought after classic sports car in its own right. John Tojeiro, the original designer of the AC Ace chassis became a director of the company and the car was renamed the Dax Tojeiro. The hugely charismatic Dax 427 has since remained the undisputed market leader for more than 25 years. The cars enduring popularity owes much to Dax's policy of continual product improvement and painstaking attention to detail. A philosophy that has clearly shaped every aspect of today's Dax 427. From its state of the art technical specification, top quality composite body and sumptuous leather interior to its deep-dished Halibrand style wheels, trademark stainless steel side pipe exhausts and low, wide, purposeful stance. For many years now the clear customer favourite has been the small-block Chevrolet V8, perhaps due to its competitive price and wide choice of power outputs. It's no exaggeration to say that the car amazes all that go out in it, harnessing the power of the V8 with ease and providing levels of grip, composure and ride comfort that simply have to be experienced to be believed. Even Jonathon Palmer was heard to say, "Wow, that's just staggering!" when taking the new demonstrator for a few laps around Brands Hatch, great praise indeed from an ex-Formula One driver.This simply fantastic example is presented in the British Racing Green with iconic racing stripes and unusually this has the optional and gorgeous hardtop which adds an element of real practicality to the V8 brute. It is fitted with the only engine to be found in a Cobra, the Chevrolet 383c.i., 5.7 litre, V8 engine. Naturally this example sounds fantastic and will give you goosebumps. It was first registered May 2002 and has since covered just over 10,259 miles. Contained within the detailed and impressive history file is a comprehensive collection of invoices relating to the cars build which includes many from Dax for what was clearly a no expense spared philosophy. Also bills for continual maintenance from some of the very best V8 specialists in the industry. The present owner was meticulous in sourcing this car having it purchased for his 50th birthday and no stone has been unturned in maintaining and accessorising, The result is simply stunning and would put a smile on anyone’s face.Chassis Number: SA9DAXM4R1A038210Engine Number: F0526TYZR0A1095Odometer Reading: 10,259 miles*Please note the registration will be retained and an age related plate will be issued in due course

Produced between 1961 and 1967, the TR4 combined a new, modern and aggressive body design by famed Italian stylist, Giovanni Michelotti with the basic chassis of the previous TR3A. The TR4 also improved passenger comfort with wind-up windows, face-level ventilation and an optional hardtop. The 2138cc engine of the late-production TR3A continued while the 1991cc engine was also made available to buyers who wanted to participate in two litre racing. When equipped with the optional overdrive, the TR4 was good for a top speed of almost 110mph. Today, the four-cylinder TR's are among the easiest of post-war classic sports cars to own and maintain being supported by a multitude of component suppliers and other specialists.This very nice, original, right hand drive 1964 Triumph TR4 with overdrive has been very well maintained by all of its previous owners. The last owner purchased this car in 2016 and went right through the cars mechanics in 2017 to prepare it for tours and rallies, which he did covering only 6,000 miles in five years. At the end of 2021 he had the car painted in its original colour red. The interior is black piped in white and features the original white dashboard and passenger grab handle. This TR4 is supplied with a V5 registration document and an MoT test certificate which expires in December 2022 along with a history file containing photocopies of previous registration documents supplied by DVLA, old MoT certificates going back to 1993 and a large number of parts invoices starting 2017. The current owner informs us that it runs and drives very well. The quality of this still very original yet fastidiously presented example should generate significant interest both within the TR Register and wider classic car enthusiasts community.
The Arnage T can lay claim to the title of world's fastest saloon, needing all but the last two spots on its 170mph speedometer. It is powered by another version of the 6.75 litre Rolls-Royce, V8 engine but treated to what Bentley described as 'the most thorough re-engineering of its life'. Other changes included the adoption of a 'drive-by-wire' throttle to go hand-in-glove with Bosch's Electronic Stability Program which replaced the Red Label's traction control but what really gives this nearly three-ton car its immense poise is a revised suspension that features 57% more roll stiffness than the Red Label. The car's basic structure is also 10% stiffer which means there are no creaks and squeaks of the sort that distinguished previous generations of Bentleys.Believed to be the only one, this Arnage T is finished in Iridium Green with contrasting Mocha interior. First registered on 31st March 2005, this level two facelift model boasts the supreme comfort expected from such a luxurious marque and performance which is quite breathtaking, especially given the size of the car. The interior is rich with leather, chrome dials, turned aluminium and gadgets. The exterior is subtly understated with only its side vents and 18inch split rim wheels providing a clue to its performance. Under the bonnet, the 6,750cc twin turbocharged engine offers performance that has to be experienced, 451bhp and 654ft-lbs of torque propel the car to 60mph in 5.5 seconds and on to 179 mph. Reported to run and drive very well, this car is believed to have never been driven in the wet. In fact, when the vendor purchased the car, the owner refused to let him come on the day he wished to pick it up, because it was raining. Having covered only 38,068 miles, this incredible car has led an easy life, the only reason for sale being a lack of use.Supplied with its UK V5C registration document, MoT test certificate valid until February 2023, original handbook, stamped service book and receipts all confirming that the car has been well maintained with nine stamps showing in the service book. This unmarked example certainly offers exceptional value for money.
Launched by Lotus in 1962, the two-seater Elan which had been a classic GT style 2+2 model was developed using a stretched chassis and widened track to accommodate two small rear seats. Improvements to the interior and the addition of front fog lights, in 1969, characterised the new Elan +2S but it wasn't until the much-awaited big valve head engines arrived early in 1971 that the Elan +2 really came of age thanks to the new 126bhp output. Known as the Elan Sprint, the same engine was transplanted into the +2S to create the Elan +2S 130. This version was capable of 125mph and 0-60 in just 7.4 seconds. It wasn't just the rapid performance that boosted Lotus's image but the fact that this model was the first that Lotus chose not to supply in kit form.This wonderful example of this iconic British classic from Colin Chapmans factory was purchased by the present owner in 2012 and has maintained the car superbly over the years with no expense spared. It is presented in red with black interior, both of which are superb condition. The car comes with a good history, with invoices from Classics by JSW and Paul Matty showing evidence of work carried out to keep this Lotus in the fantastic condition you see today. These 2+2 Elans are timeless in aesthetics and as fun on the road today as they were when first manufactured, mirroring Lotus success on the track which is born into Motorsport folk law.
The very pretty and highly desirable Mercedes-Benz 250 SL was the successor to the popular 230 SL and was first introduced to the public at the 1967 Geneva Motor Show. The brief production run ended a year later in January 1968 and as a result of this short run, the 250 SL is the rarest of the W 113 (Pagoda) series cars. These lovely German stalwarts were offered with a four-speed automatic, a four-speed manual box or the ZF five-speed. Also, for the first time an optional limited slip differential was also available. This fabulous fully restored, including engine rebuild, Pagoda Mercedes is presented in red with black leather interior and is left hand drive. Its restoration was carried out by various Mercedes-Benz specialists and looks fabulous. The car had a full glass-out respray, brand new Mercedes-Benz grained leather interior including full dash, door cards, seats etc. Brand new salt and pepper carpets have been installed and brand new wood including dash and surrounds. The restoration also included a brand new Mohair hood, exhaust, headlights and rubber seals throughout, interior works carried out by leading marque specialists, D Class of Surrey cost in excess of £16,000. The full list of the works carried out can be seen in the history file as well as the summary of the engine work which was carried out and it has covered zero miles since its completion. As part of its engine rebuild, it received a full tune up and reset all settings and controls, reset mixture/tappets and clearances as well as draining the oil, brake fluid and the braking system was fully bled. The original documents held on file include its Service Book, stamped Mercedes-Benz Kundendienst, Germany. Fastidious attention to maintaining originality including correct period Becker Europa radio, Hirschmann aerial and new Michelin tyres. This truly is a superb restoration and is resplendent in its gleaming new red paint. One of the finest of this marque on the market today. The Vendor has applied for a V5 log book from the DVLA but this may not have arrived by the time of the Auction. Therefor it may be sold without its new log book but when it arrives the new owner can then apply for it to be changed into their name.Interested parties should note that whilst driving well when being consigned and photographed three weeks ago, a new fuel pump has been fitted which currently is not working but the vendor will rectify at his cost before any new owner takes delivery of this vehicle.
The Bentley Continental Flying Spur (2006 - 2013) was the second Bentley manufactured since the Volkswagen Group purchased the brand in 1999, after the Continental GT. The Flying Spur is essentially a four-door version of the Continental GT, with a stretched wheelbase and greater length for more spacious rear seating. The two models were similarly priced. The 2013 Spur weighs 5,580lbs and carries the same twin-turbo, 6.0 litre W12 engine used in the Continental GT, for an output of 600 horsepower and 533 pound-feet of torque. It has a 0-60mph time of 4.5 seconds and a top speed of 200mph. The steering column-mounted paddle shifters enable direct access to the six-speed gearbox when the ZF transmission is put into S or sports mode.This lovely low mileage example of this luxury saloon is presented in silver with cream leather interior. It comes with full rear climate control, fully adjustable rear seats with memory, heated and cooled rear seats with massage capability, heated and electrically operated front seats multi-adjustable sunroof, rear electric blinds, multimedia, DVD, radio, TV, satellite navigation and phone fitting. The history file contains invoices from Jack Barclay and various other invoices charting its service history over the years, which includes six stamps in the service book from Jack Barclay. This Continental Flying Spur has the desirable two rear seat option, offering the occupants just that much more in terms of luxury and individuality, more akin to First Class travel on any airline!
The E-Type Series III was introduced in 1971, with a new 5.3 litre, V12 engine, uprated brakes, and standard power steering. Optionally, an automatic transmission, wire wheels and air conditioning were available. The brand new V12 engine produced 272bhp, had more torque, and a 0-60mph acceleration of less than seven seconds, which was phenomenal for the price of the car at that time, considering its competition in the marketplace. The short wheelbase fixedhead coupé body style was discontinued, with the Series III available only as a convertible and 2+2 coupé. The newly used longer wheelbase now offered significantly more room in all directions. These models were easily identifiable by the large cross-slatted front grille, flared wheel arches, wider tyres, four exhaust tips and a badge on the rear that proclaims it to be a V12. It is thought that only 7,990 convertibles and 7,297 fixedhead cars were produced.This lovely example of the V12 Series III E-type was originally supplied by Mann Egerton of London and registered in 1974 but originally manufactured in August 1973. The car is a low mileage, UK delivered, right hand drive, manual gearbox which has been owned by our vendor for 11 years and by the previous owner for 19 years before that. The vehicle is presented in in its original colour of Old English White with French Blue interior and a new mohair hood. Purchased in the Spring of 2011 this car has been continuously garaged by our vendor and has had regular specialist mechanical attention for services and maintenance during this period, as detailed in the large history file. Boasting two former keepers, the original owner having confirmed by letter that the mileage at the time was correct, this is an incredibly low owner car with confirmed mileage and a large amount of supporting history including Jaguar Heritage Trust letter and certificate, original handbook, original Jaguar Service Passport, many invoices and previous MoT test certificates.
When Alejandro de Tomaso acquired Maserati in 1976, he had ambitious plans for the marque. His plan was to combine the prestige of the Maserati brand with a sports car that would be more affordable than the earlier high-priced models that had traditionally made up the Maserati range. The Maserati Biturbo features, as the name implies, a two-litre V6 engine with two turbochargers and a luxurious interior. The car was designed by Pierangelo Andreani, an engineer from the De Tomaso team, somewhat influenced by the design of the newer Quattroporte III (Italdesign Giugiaro), as can be observed on the front fascia. The Biturbo was initially a strong seller and brought Italian prestige to a wide audience and competed (unsuccessfully) in the British Touring Car Championship in the late 1980's, the European Touring Car Championship and the 1987 World Touring Car Championship.This ultra rare Maserati 228 is presented in red with cream leather interior and was the actual car used in the original press release (a copy of which is in the history file). This is one of only 12 right hand drive cars in the UK and only 49 were ever made. Out of a total ever produced of this particular model, this is car number 163 of 469. The interior is luxuriously appointed and we are told the car drives well, with that evocative exhaust note from its V6 engine ever prominent, making this a joy to drive on the country roads.
Sharing the Volkswagen Group A5 platform, it debuted at the Frankfurt Motor Show in October 2003 and went on sale in Europe one month later. The GTI comes with VW's four-cylinder 2.0L Turbo engine (FSI) which gives it 197 bhp. Transmissions include a six-speed manual or six-speed DSG. The Mk. 5 is now regarded as probably the best incarnation of the legendary GTi after the original Mk. 1 of 1976-1983 and is fast acquiring modern classic status.Imported from Japan, this superb example is presented in black with grey GTi check cloth interior and is in great condition throughout. The car comes with electric folding mirrors, cruise control, climate control, electric windows, six-speed DSG automatic gearbox, privacy glass, Xenon headlights and it comes with a full service history with eight service invoices and stamped service book. This particular GTis condition should be viewed in the flesh to really appreciate it as it is unmarked inside, outside and underneath and comes with a mileage guarantee certificate! Great value and stunning to look at.
The 456M, M standing for Modificata, was unveiled in 1998, starting with chassis number 109589. Many changes were made to improve aerodynamics and cooling, and the interior €“ still featuring Connolly Leather €“ was refreshed with new seats and other conveniences including fewer gauges on the dash, and a new Becker stereo fitted in front of the shifter rather than behind, as in the very shallow and special Sony head unit in the 456 GT. The 456 had a smaller grille with fog lights outside the grille. The bonnet was the first commercial application of carbon fibre, the previous being made of a composite material. Power output remained unchanged on the Modificata using Bosch Motronic M5.2 engine management. The cylinder firing order was changed for smoother running.We are delighted to offer this example of a Ferrari 456M that can only be described as being in excellent condition. The car formed part of the world famous 543 car collection of the dentist Dr. James Hull.The coachwork on this Ferrari is presented in pale blue and is in fine order. Take a look on the inside and you will find the quality continues; the rich cream leather interior is elegant and complements the exterior perfectly. To be expected from such a splendid example, a good service history is supplied, including stamps in 2006,2007 and 2009 the next service was undertaken in 2020 following the cars 10 years in collections. This work included new belts, fuel pump, Pirelli P Zero tyres and recommissioning. The most recent service was completed at Dick Lovetts in January 2022 at 15,030 miles. Presented to auction with a V5C registration document and we are advised it will come to auction with a fresh MoT Test certificate.
These fabulous and popular little cars were designed in 1959 and were heralded as a new concept in car design. Little did they know or envisage what would become of these great models. With a monocoque shell, transversely mounted engine and front wheel drive, the new 'Mini' soon became popular across the world and to all types of individual well healed or not! The potential for competition use was soon seen by John Cooper; he eventually persuaded BMC and the two worked together culminating in 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. First registered on 13th June 1965 and sold by Swain and Jones Ltd of Farnham, Surrey, this exceptional Mini Cooper has completed less than 100 miles since a ground up, bare metal £31,000 restoration. Rarer than the Cooper S, these Mk. I Coopers are hard to come by, let alone in such incredible condition. The attention to detail throughout, such as the appropriate gaps between the wings and windscreen scuttle panel, most often filled in, is second to none. This little gem of a Cooper is the best Mini restoration the consigner has ever seen and is presented in its original specification of Almond Green with Old English White roof, matched to Porcelain Green and Dove Grey trim and an optional heater, as confirmed by its accompanying BMI Heritage Certificate. All the mechanicals including the engine, subframes, brakes, suspension and electrics were restored and rebuilt with all required parts being supplied by the best in the business, such as Newton Commercial for the interior, M/Machine body panels and British Motor Heritage. Images of the restoration along with the many invoices for parts and labour are included in the cars well presented history file. Reported by the vendor to drive better than new, this car sits beautifully on a set of rose petal alloy wheels, but also comes supplied with a set of 3.5€ steel wheels.Supplied with the Heritage Certificate, history file, photographic record of its restoration and MoT test certificate valid until June 2022. An unrivalled example of a British design icon presented in the iconic colour combination it left the factory in.
The Ferrari 348 was a mid-engined, rear wheel drive, V8 powered two-seater replacing the 328 in 1989 and continuing until 1995. Badged 348 TB for the coupé (Berlinetta) and 348 TS (Spider) for the targa versions, it features a naturally aspirated, 3.4 litre version of the quad-cam, four valve per cylinder engine which was originally found in the 288 GTO. As with its predecessors, the model number was derived from this configuration with the first two digits being the displacement and the third being the number of cylinders. The 348 was equipped with a dry-sump oil system to prevent oil starvation at high speeds and during hard cornering. It was also fitted with adjustable ride height suspension and a removable rear subframe to speed up the removal of the engine for maintenance.One of only 68 right hand drive Spiders imported to the UK, this beautiful Chiaro Blue with Crema leather example benefitted from a major service in February 2019 by SB Race Engineering and included the all-important cambelts. A bill for the service is included in the cars fantastic service history and shows exactly what was carried out. The comprehensive history file contains service and maintenance records chronologically filed for reference and the service book demonstrates a consistent and responsible approach to maintenance which is full to capacity, to the extent that the back cover is now being used to record the details with 17 overall stamps. Whilst the odometer reads 8,929 miles, the 348s were notorious for speedo head failures and this car indeed suffered from that. The true mileage currently stands at 55,649 miles which can be confirmed by looking at the service book, MoT test certificates, and comparing with the receipts in the service history. The fact that it is so well documented in the cars service history is testament to how well the car has been cared for throughout its life and any new owner can be reassured knowing it has benefitted from maintenance and service work when required. In more recent times the sticky plastic which many Ferraris of this era suffer from has been restored, a new clutch and release bearing have also been installed and a fresh set of Continental Sport tyres have been fitted. The gear change has also been adjusted and lubricated and fresh gearbox oil has been added. Needless to say, the 348 runs and drives very well indeed and sounds fantastic when on song.Supplied with a service book, Ferrari leather book pack, Ferrari tool kit, fitted tonneau cover, V5C registration document and a current MoT test certificate valid until September 2022. With only 68 right hand drive Spiders imported to the UK, this is even rarer in its fabulous colour combination and viewing of the car is highly recommended.
The fourth generation BMW M3 was announced on the 2007 Geneva Motor Show. It was originally set to be called M4 along with 3 Series coupés and convertibles that were to become the 4 Series but, due to the interest in retaining the M3 line as well as the plan for a separate 4 series line, this change was scrapped. Like the previous M3 generations that introduced a new engine, the fourth generation M3 did the same: the BMW S65 V8 engine producing 414bhp. The E92 M3 coupé inherited a carbon-fibre roof similar to the one used on the E46 CSL. For 2011, the E92 M3 received a model refresh, changes included minor interior trim pieces and LED rear taillights. The new M3 is again available as a four-door saloon, based on the E90 3 Series saloon, but unlike the regular saloons, the M3 version shares the coupé's wide and sculpted front end, including headlights. Although the front-end design of the saloon matches the specific look and high-performance character of the coupé, the side-sills and rear diffuser are tailored for the saloon.This superb, ex Sytner Used BMW example is presented in silver with black leather interior. This lovely convertible M3 comes with air conditioning, electric heated memory front seats, CD player and satellite navigation. It has the desirable DCT Automatic seven speed gearbox with paddle shift and is fitted with a Scorpion rear exhaust box and the car body has had a ceramic coating applied. The present owner has just had the car serviced on 24th/25th February, in accordance to the service book. The car also comes with a new MoT test certificate and a full BMW service history up to and including 2018 and thereafter specialists according to the service indicator. Also, the vendor informs us that it comes with a Motoreasy Plan C (2 year) warranty which is valid until August 1st this year and has not been used to date! This is one of the best examples of this model we have seen and €œwants for nothing€ as they say!
The 996 is the internal designation for the Porsche 911 model manufactured and sold between 1998 and 2005. On its debut, the 996 featured the most significant changes to the Carrera model since its 1963 introduction, namely the water-cooled engine replacing the previously air-cooled unit. Progressively stringent noise regulations, environmental concerns, a higher expectation for refinement and a high-performance, four-valve per cylinder engine made the switch necessary. Other changes included a sleeker body with a more steeply raked windshield and a redesigned interior. The performance characteristics remained superb with reliability at its core. The Targa models now featured a full glass and electronically operated roof. The 996 was another step forward for Porsche, making cars that not only excited their fan base but appealed to those who wanted a comfortable and practical everyday sports car that could sprint to 60 mph in a shade over five seconds.First registered 15th March 2002 this example presented in silver cost £66,608 when new which included cost options such as Porsche stability management, 18 inch Turbo wheels, sound package and painted instrument dials. Delivered to its first owner in Ascot the accompanying service booklet shows 10 main dealer stamps followed by a further 9 services with specialists with accompanying invoices the last with Northway which was a major service with spark plugs in October 2021. We are informed by the vendor that the car also boasts new discs and pads, a recent bore inspection in March 2021, new Bilstein shock absorbers, springs and bump stops and has a modern Apple Play/DAB stereo fitted the original also suppled. Offered with full book pack and an MoT test certificate until September 2022. The previous owner was a mechanical engineer and the attention to detail shows, recently ceramic coated this is a lovely example of the 996 incarnation and viewing is highly recommended.
This UK supplied right hand drive Series I 3.8 litre fixedhead coupé was manufactured on 28th February 1962 and is one of the first 250 E-Types produced. Delivered to its first owner, Mr Oggelsey of Harpenden, the Jaguar has had six keepers from new and was fitted with a replacement 3.8 Litre E-Type engine in period. Interestingly, the replacement engine block was originally fitted to chassis 875001, which was the first left hand drive E-Type roadster off the production line! In 2000 the Jaguar was treated much restoration work by Thoroughbred Car Services of Southend at a cost of some £12,000. This included renovation of the engine and gearbox, rebuilt carbs, new clutch kit, rebuilt axle, radiator overhaul and fitment of Kenlowe fan, new braking system, steering and suspension overhaul, new engine and gearbox mountings, an electrical system overhaul plus numerous other item. Acquired by the last owner in 2016, the E-Type was treated to further restoration work including repair to the body and floor panels and an extensive bare metal respray. At this time all rubbers, seals and trim parts were replaced as necessary, while the interior was also re-trimmed as required and a stainless-steel exhaust fitted. Following the restoration work, the E-Type has covered very little mileage and as such presents in wonderful order. The underside is very clean and the paintwork, shut lines and wheels are in very good condition. The moss gearbox performs as it should, and the engine, which holds good oil pressure, sounds fantastic when on song. Regardless of the recent low usage, OJC 433 has been fully maintained annually by renowned Jaguar specialist, Alan Collins and, despite its exempt status, comes with a MoT test certificate valid until July 2022. The history file that accompanies the car contains various invoices and photographs detailing the restorations, a V5C registration document, the original owners manual and sales brochure, a service manual, Heritage Certificate, and the original and rare paperwork wallets. Various sundry invoices are also present as well as 15 previous MoT test certificates. Also included is a Shelly Jack, Jaguar toolkit, spare wheel, wheel removal tools and a bespoke car cover. This is a very well presented example and we are sure it will enhance any serious collection. Ready to be enjoyed immediately by its new custodian.Interested parties should note that contrary to the catalogue description the replacement engine block number is not R10039 and it was not fitted to the first left hand drive E-Type roadster off the production line.
The Ferrari 575M Maranello is a two-seat, two-door, grand tourer which was launched in 2002, it is essentially an updated 550 Maranello featuring minor styling changes from Pininfarina. The 575M was replaced by the 599 GTB in the first half of 2006. Updates from the 550, included a renewed interior, but with substantial improvements mechanically, including bigger brake discs, a larger and more powerful engine, improved weight distribution, refined aerodynamics and fluid dynamics along with an adaptive suspension set-up (the four independent suspensions are also controlled by the gearbox, to minimise pitch throughout the 200 milliseconds shift time). Two six-speed transmissions were available, a conventional manual gearbox and for the first time on a Ferrari V12, Magneti Marelli's semi-automatic (Electrohydraulic manual) 'F1' gearbox. The 575 model number refers to total engine displacement in litres, whilst the 'M' is an abbreviation of modificato ('modified').This very good Ferrari 575M F1, fitted with the semi-automatic gearbox, was supplied new in 2002 by Cornes Ferrari in Japan and imported to the United Kingdom in May 2017. Finished in Argento Nurburgring (Silver) with contrasting Bordeaux leather interior with Bordeaux carpets. The car is supplied with a very good options list including electric seats, red brake calipers, 19 inch five spoke alloy wheels, a Bordeaux carpet rear shelf, climate control and black dials. It has been very well maintained with a full service history and comes with a V5 registration document, an MoT test certificate, the original manuals, toolkit and bag. this lovely Ferrari 575M Maranello is a great car to look at and an even better one to drive.
In 1959 the old Popular was replaced by a new version which was in production until 1962. Like the previous model it used a superseded Anglia bodyshell, this time that of the 100E, and it was powered by a strengthened 1172cc side valve engine producing 36 bhp. The brakes were now hydraulic with eight inch drums all round. The basic model stripped out many items from the old model but there was a large list of extras available; on the De Luxe version many of the extras were included as standard. In total 126,115 Popular 100Es were built. The Motor magazine tested a 100E in 1960 and found it to have a top speed of 69.9 mph, acceleration from 0€“50 mph in 19.6 seconds and a fuel consumption of 33.2 miles per gallon, the test car cost £494 including taxes with a comment that it was the lowest-priced orthodox saloon on the British market. In 1960, the manufacturer's recommended retail price of £494 was equivalent to 26 weeks' worth of the average UK wage. This Ford Popular 100E was first registered on 1 July 1958 and shows only three keepers since then. Described as being mechanically sound, this Fords most recent adventure was in the remake of the classic film the Ipcress File. Presented to auction with a V5C registration certificate and offered without reserve. This is a perfect, entry level, classic car which is suitable to be taken to any one of the numerous classic car events that occur all around the UK.
The Porsche 993 was introduced in 1993 as a replacement for the 964 generation of the iconic 911 model and was built until 1998. Regarded by many as the best generation of 911s ever produced from Stuttgart, this car was the last to use the air cooled flat-six engine that had powered 911s for the previous thirty years. The 993 was offered in a number of guises and specifications during its production life including two and four-wheel drive trains, known as Carrera and Carrera 4 respectively. The 993 was the first generation 911 to have standard six-speed manual transmission. The Carrera, Carrera S, Cabriolet and Targa models (2WD) were available with a Tiptronic four-speed automatic transmission which was first introduced in the 964.First registered on 1st August 1996, this fantastic example of the final air cooled 911 has only covered an incredible 36,170 miles in its 25 year life. The accompanying Porsche Certificate of Authenticity confirms that the car was delivered new to Stratstone Porsche in Midnight Blue Metallic with a dark blue hood and optional extras including 17€ New Cup design wheels, top tinted windscreen, immobiliser and a Sony CD radio tuner. Unchanged from its factory ordered specification, this must be one of the lowest mileage examples in existence. The cars history file shows every MoT test certificate from 2003 onwards, as well receipts for maintenance carried out and copies of the stamps from its service book. In the nicely presented history file is also a list showing all of the cars services and the mileages at each from new. Supplied with a fresh MoT test certificate valid through to February 2023 and two new rear tyres, the car has covered just over 100 miles since its last service at Porsche Brooklands in 2021. The vendor reports the car to run and drive just as you would expect a car of its pedigree to and is only selling due to lack of use, having covered less than a thousand miles in his entire ownership.Supplied with V5C registration document, MoT test certificate valid until February 2023, service history file, past MoT test certificates and Porsche Certificate of Authenticity. A rare opportunity to own a low mileage, unmodified design classic that was the evolutionary pinnacle of Porsches legendary air cooled flat-six.
Stylish, fast, and practical, the Stag began life as a Triumph 2000 based styling exercise by Italian carrossier, Giovanni Michelotti. A 2+2 convertible, Michelotti's design featured a quad-lamp grille and sculpted front and rear ends, the latter destined to appear on many future Triumphs. By the time production commenced in 1970, the 2000's six-cylinder engine had been replaced by a three litre V8. A padded, 'T' shaped roll bar bracing the door pillars and windscreen was one of the Stag's most distinctive features and the model was available in soft-top, hardtop or soft with hardtop formats. Motor Sport described the Stag's interior as, 'well appointed, having all the usual instrumentation one would expect in a high-performance car.' Presented in white with refurbished brown trim, this automatic example was first registered on 17th November 1977 and was 95% restored between 2015 and 2017 by a Stag enthusiast before the owner fell ill. Since then, the car has been garaged and SORN; it remained off the road until last year when it was completed by a local Stag specialist. It has benefitted from a recent new mohair hood with reconditioned frame, together with new chrome front and rear bumpers and a recently fitted modern Clifford alarm/immobiliser that works well. Included in the history file are many invoices from the restoration, old MoT test certificates and two sets of keys. Now presented as an older, well refreshed, restoration, this is a fabulous entry level classic with a thriving club network.
The notion that the Mini might have a future as anything other than basic transport was an anathema; the idea of a high-performance version was laughable. One man though, saw it quite differently. Racing car manufacturer John Cooper already knew quite a bit about tuning BMC's A-Series engine, he was running the company's Formula Junior effort at the time and a test drive in a prototype Mini convinced him of the car's competition potential. The Mini Cooper soon established its credentials as a rally and race winner and the stage was set for even faster versions. The first of these, the 1071cc Mini Cooper 'S' of 1963, took engine development a stage further and provided the basis for the 971 'S' and 1275 'S' of 1964.Originally registered on 22nd February 1966, this delightful Mini is finished in the great colour combination of grey with a white roof and the traditional grey interior. This Cooper S is in very good order showing no signs of corrosion. Extensive amounts of restoration work confirm this is a car that has been lovingly cherished. Lift the carpets and the floors are very solid, open the boot and she is nice and neat and tidy. Start the engine on this Mini and there are no adverse noises, rattles, or smoke; she runs very well. Out on the road, this genuine UK right hand drive Mini Cooper S drives exactly as she should, with brisk performance and excellent road holding. Supplied with a V5C registration document and a host of invoices.
The Austin Healey 3000 Mk. III was launched in October 1963 and remained in production until the end of 1967 when production of Austin Healeys ceased. Classified as the BJ8, the new model was the most powerful and luxurious of the big Healeys with a walnut veneer dash, wind-up windows and a 150bhp engine. Improvements to the engine included a revised camshaft, valve springs and twin SU 2 HD8 carburettors together with a redesigned exhaust system and servo-assisted brakes. In May 1964, the phase II version was introduced that gave better ground clearance at the rear by a modified chassis.This delightfully handsome Austin Healey was repatriated from North America, and subsequently registered in the UK on 10th September 2018. Various work has been completed including extensive work to the body as well as a refreshment of the coachwork. The fabulous two-tone green and cream paintwork is in good order and is complemented by a set of chrome wire wheels that are shod with a set of correct style tyres. Mechanically, this Healey has been overhauled and the vendor reports that it drives well. A large history file includes the US Certificate of Title, a British Motor Industry Heritage Trust Certificate, various invoices, and a UK V5/C registration document. Used occasionally since the import, this well presented Austin Healey is ready to be enjoyed by a new custodian.
When Porsche launched the 928 GTS in 1992, they knew it would be the last evolution of 928. Porsche did much to enhance performance and refinement, knowing that its luxury flagship would leave memories with Porsche enthusiasts. For the GTS, Porsche increased the engine capacity to 5397cc and added a catalytic convertor, with eight balance weights instead of six to enhance smoothness. This DOHC engine produced 350bhp and enabled a top speed of more than 170mph. The GTS engine was smoother and more flexible than its predecessor and was quieter and easier to drive. Changes to the chassis included a wider rear track and larger brakes. Externally, the GTS differed from S4 with its new style of alloy wheels, flared rear arches and a body-coloured rear spoiler. What Porsche wasn't advertising when the 928 was released was the price; it was among the most expensive cars on the road at the time. This severely hampered sales despite the model's high competency and long standard equipment list. Porsche discontinued the GTS model that year after shipping only 2,904 in total which in 1994 was a problem; in 2022 however, it has resulted in a rare and incredibly desirable Porsche. This Midnight Blue metallic Porsche 928 GTS has a mere 4,400 miles on its odometer and has spent much of its life as part of the Sultan of Bruneis car collection. With a close connection to the Sultan of Bruneis family, the car was acquired in 2017. It was subject of an extensive mechanical recommissioning service in 2018 and can claim to not yet be fully run-in. We understand when under Brunei ownership, the front wings and bonnet were resprayed due to sun damage but since then has had a restoration to bring it to a fine standard today. The interior is in lovely condition, as you might expect from a car with so few miles indeed time-warp condition. The GTS has been the collectors choice of the 928 range and continues to appreciate dramatically with a well-known film car selling in excess of $2 million in 2021, subsequently this example is estimated at an incredible price point. UK registered this example is ready to find a new home with a discerning car collector, or Porsche enthusiast especially with the incredible mileage and HJH Royal ownership and currently only one UK owner registered since.Interested parties should note that the V5 for this has been misplaced and the owner has applied for a replacement, this will arrive in due course
Alpine, once an independent company specialising in faster Renaults, and later a Renault subsidiary, established a fine competition history with the stunning Alpine A110, winning the 1973 Monte-Carlo Rally and World Championship. The successor was the Alpine A310 that was initially powered by a tuned 17TS/Gordini four-cylinder engine, the six-cylinder 2,664cc V6 option arriving in 1976. The A310 was labour intensive, having been developed for small-scale artisanal production, the basis being a hefty tubular steel backbone chassis clothed in a fibreglass shell. The engine was mounted longitudinally in the rear driving the wheels through a manual five-speed gearbox. With the weight a mere 980kg, the Renault Alpine was a fine performer indeed. This rare example, which began life as a standard A310, was the subject of a large article in Classic Cars magazine June 2019 edition. It is presented in white with black leather interior which was trimmed by a Renault specialist some years ago and looks great. The car was sold new to its first owner in France in November 1978, who transformed it into GT specification and in the history file is the original sale brochure which came with the car, albeit in French! Like so many seventies supercars, the massive wheel arch extensions were part of a Group 4 homologation overhaul intended to accommodate a new kind of motor sport-bred tyre, in this case, the Pirelli P7. Its all alloy wide angle 2.7 litre V6 is directly related to a Le Mans winner and fed by a bizarre looking combination of single and twin choke Solex carburettors. Its Alpine Fleschmann Nogano alloys were made exclusively for the GT pack by PLS and look superb on this ultra-rare French sports car. These Alpines were known for their steering which enabled drivers to use it to great success on Rallies and Hillclimbs throughout Europe. Its black leather interior also combines one or two hints that it was used at some point in its history for timed rallies with the presence of twin stopwatches and a timing device, although there is no suggestion or proof that it competed competitively in period or since! This is a superb opportunity to acquire a rare and exciting sports car from the 1970s which still looks very cool!Interested parties please note that this Alpine is a standard A310 and not a GT as described. It was changed to GT specification in the late 1970s by a previous owner in France.
Launched at the Geneva Motor Show in March of 1963, the 230 SL was a very different car to its predecessors. Intended as the replacement for the 190 SL, the 230 SL abandoned the four-cylinder engine in favour of a 2.3 litre fuel-injected, six-cylinder engine, producing 150bhp. The new engine was derived from that of the great 220 SE. The Paul Bracq penned body was an all-new, stylish design which became an instant classic. Beneath the skin, the running gear was conventional Mercedes-Benz, featuring independent suspension, disc brakes on the front and rear drums. Top speed was in excess of 120mph. Soon after the 230 SL was announced, Eugen Bohringer drove one to victory in the Spa-Sofia-Liège Rally. This impressive 1965 Mercedes-Benz 230 SL Roadster has benefitted from some noticeable tlc. The recently refreshed paintwork is in good order and presents well in white with a hardtop contrasting in black. The trim is impressive, and the car fired up on request. Offered to auction with a V5C registration document and a file containing various bills and receipts, this Pagoda Mercedes is keenly priced. These SL models were amongst the most-loved sports-tourers of their day and continue to be highly sought after by collectors and have recently seen a marked increase in values.
Launched at the Geneva Motor Show in 1993, the Ian Callum styled DB7 began production in 1994 at a new factory in Bloxham, Oxfordshire. It was engineered in conjunction with Tom Walkinshaws TWR group who built the new supercharged six-cylinder engine. In 1999, the new DB7 Vantage with a V12 engine was revealed. It didnt just bring a new powertrain but more aggressive styling with a bigger front grille, new fog, side and indicator lights and imposing 18€ wheels. The Vantage interior leather trim was cut and sewn at a special trim shop at Newport Pagnell where the carpet and wood veneers were also prepared. With the launch of the new V12 engine in the DB7 Vantage, production of the earlier straight-six DB7 ended in mid-1999.Originally registered on 1st March 2003 this beautiful Aston Martin is finished in Mendip Blue, a colour which really suits the sleek coupé. Having covered a mere 40,777 miles from new, to be expected this Aston Martin presents in great order all round. The V12 engine burst into life immediately when requested and we are advised she drives with no known faults. With only two previous keepers, this DB7 is supplied with a V5C registration document and a current MoT test certificate valid until 22nd November 2022 together with a history folder. This is a great looking Aston Martin fitted with the fabulous V12 power plant and is ready to be enjoyed immediately.
The BMW E30 3-series was first introduced in 1982, with the BMW built convertible version joining the line-up in 1988. Unlike the bulky Baur roll cage E30 convertibles that preceded it, the BMW factory-built convertibles used a strengthened windscreen to provide a cleaner and more attractive design and distinctive roof down profile. E30 convertibles manufactured between 1988 and early 1990 are considered the models to own as they were produced after the last major design update (1987 - often called Series 2) and before the final minor revision in late 1990 that moved away from chrome to colour coded bumpers and introduced a less desirable taillight configuration. BMW E30 3 series had a large variety of inline four and six-cylinder engine options. The 325i was the most desirable of the mainstream production six-cylinder engine option, producing a distinctive and smooth purr. The E30 is considered one of the car design icons of the 1980s.Originally supplied by Cooper St. James in London and registered on 24th May 1988, this car changed hands to the second owner and current vendor on 14th December 1989. The time warp condition of this 325i really does need to be seen to be appreciated. The Malachite Green paintwork is unmarked and totally original as is the natural leather. The hood is original and the only slight blemish is a light milkiness on the plastic rear window. The fastidious vendor has ensured whenever the hood was folded down, it was done correctly and patiently, hence there are no creases or marks. The 2494cc engine fired up immediately when requested and sounded delightful. We are advised by the vendor that she drives with no known faults. The original condition, together with the exceedingly low mileage of 22,429 and the impeccable service history make this a very desirable car. Supplied with a V5C registration document, together with a current MoT test certificate and the original service books. There can be very few BMW 325i convertibles that could compete with this superb example.
The Range Rover is a large luxury four-wheel drive sport utility vehicle launched in 1970 and is now in its fourth generation. In 1967, the first Range Rover prototype was built with the classic Range Rover shape clearly discernible although with a different front grille and headlight configuration. The design of the Range Rover was eventually finalised and signed off in 1969. Some 25 years after the introduction of the Range Rover, the second-generation Range Rover model designation P38A was introduced for the 1995 model year with an updated version of the Rover V8 engines. There was also the option of a 2.5 litre BMW six-cylinder turbo-diesel engine. This was a result of BMW's subsequent ownership of Rover Group and hence the Land Rover brand. The new model offered more equipment and premium trims and was positioned above the Land Rover Discovery to face the increased competition in the SUV marketplace. This model was the last to feature the Rover V8 engine and interior leather supplied by Connolly who sadly went out of business in 2002.Manufactured on 28th July 1994 and originally registered on 1st August this pre-production Range Rover has recently been restored to concours condition. This 4.0 SE was used as part of the original press launch at Cliveden and still bears the original registration number of M247 CVC. The bodywork was restored by Eric Tenney of Bodycraft, the Biarritz Blue paintwork finish is excellent. The manual gearbox and transfer case were overhauled by Hardy Engineering and the engine was rebuilt by SRS Engineering. The heating and air conditioning systems were restored and operate efficiently. The air suspension has also been totally overhauled and functions exactly as it should. Supplied with a V5C registration document together with an MoT test certificate valid until 14th September 2022. A comprehensive file with invoice for all the work carried out is present as is a Heritage Certificate. This P38 Range Rover represents a significant piece of British motoring history and appears to be attractively estimated given the pre-production status and remarkable condition.
