c.1930s Morgan Three Wheeler- c.1930s Morgan Three-Wheeler restoration project with Matchless V-Twin engine and Super Sports-style body - Abandoned on the vendor's farm over twenty years ago - Offered for sale at no reserve and without documentation This Morgan Three-Wheeler has lain unclaimed on the vendor's farm for over twenty years. The number plate it wears - 'APH 322' - is still recorded on the DVLA and HPi databases but is associated with the chassis number 'D363'. Whereas, the number visible on its torque tube seems to read either '89' or '68'. Thus, it is possible that this lot has no claim to the registration number 'APH 322' especially as chassis 'D363' began life as a Family (4-seater) model. By contrast chassis '89' was built as a Sports (2-seater) model. The Morgan Three Wheeler Club have told us they would support an application to the DVLA for chassis '89' (or chassis '68') to be allocated an age-related registration number provided that the Morgan was 'rebuilt with appropriate period parts'. In need of extensive restoration, the Three-Wheeler appears to be fitted with a water-cooled Matchless V-twin engine (MX2/673) and separate three-speed manual gearbox. Sporting a `barrel back' body, it is self-evidently incomplete. Nevertheless, this 'barn find' Morgan has the makings of a worthwhile project. Offered for sale with sundry spares but no documentation. PLEASE NOTE: Since the catalogue went to press we have been contacted by Martyn Webb, the Morgan Motor Company's archivist with the following information: 'The description that you have given is mostly correct although the engine number quoted (MX2/673) is for an air-cooled overhead-valve Matchless, whereas the engine illustrated has water-cooled barrels, (MX2 was air-cooled, MX4 was water-cooled), so it would seem that the engine has been altered in the past. According to our chassis records; MX2673 was originally fitted to chassis number D1704 which was a Super Sports model, despatched on 11th November 1936 to Jordan & Co, the Morgan dealer in Hull. 'APH 322' is a Surrey registration, so it is unlikely that this was originally allocated to chassis D1704. The body is a Super Sports model from the mid-1930s, so it may be that the engine is original to the body, albeit fitted with water-cooled barrels'. PLEASE NOTE: The Morgan Three-Wheeler Club have recently been in touch to say that they do not think this lot has a claim to the registration number 'APH 322', the corresponding logbook for which was apparently sold on eBay in 2006.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.

1936 Bentley 4.25 Litre Vanvooren Pillarless Sports Saloon- Supplied new to Jean Paul Boucheron of the jewellery dynasty and retained by his family until 2001 when it entered the current ownership- Very rare and elegant Vanvooren pillarless sports saloon coachwork- Built to RHD specification but for use 'in France and on the Continent' hence high ratio back axle, ski rack, 'Projecteur' centre spotlight, lightweight seats and Marchal headlights etc- Partial refurbishment during the current ownership (cylinder head overhauled, doors re-hung, bodywork repainted, upholstery re-trimmed etc)Unveiled to great acclaim at the August 1933 Ascot Races, the Derby Bentley was underpinned by a 'double dropped' chassis featuring all-round semi-elliptic suspension and four-wheel drum brakes. Powered by a more potent version of its Rolls-Royce 20/25 sibling's 3669cc OHV straight-six engine allied to four-speed manual transmission, the newcomer was soon christened the 'Silent Sportscar'. Responding to increased competition from the likes of Alvis and Lagonda, Bentley gave its customers the option of a larger 4257cc engine during the 1936 season. Priced at £50, a comparatively modest sum compared to the cost of a basic chassis, the new unit proved so popular that the smaller capacity powerplant was soon dropped. Nicely balanced to begin with, the Derby Bentley chassis proved more than capable of handling the extra power and torque. Of the 1,241 4.25-litre variants produced, just 46 were clothed by the Parisian coachbuilder Vanvooren. Highly influential during the 1930s (its patents were employed by over forty European rivals), Vanvooren looked set to become Bentley's preferred body supplier for the soon to be introduced 'Corniche' version of the MKV model until WW2 intervened.According to its accompanying copy build card records, this particular example - chassis B244GA - was intended for use in 'France and the Continent'. Ordered by Franco Britannic Automobiles Ltd on behalf of Monsieur Jean Paul Boucheron of 81 Avenue Malakoff, Paris, it was loaded aboard the SS Silver Thorn bound for Boulogne on 15th May 1936. Part of the Boucheron jewellery dynasty which had crafted pieces for countless heads of state the world over (the Greville Tiara remains a favourite of the British Royal Family), Jean Paul possessed an understandable eye for detail. As well as having Vanvooren fashion notably handsome pillarless four-door sports coachwork for the Bentley, he specified a fuel gauge in litres, speedometer in kilometres, taller 11x43 rear axle ratio for improved high-speed cruising (which FBA Ltd took from chassis B154GA), special damper settings (120lb front / 100lb rear initial load at minimum position), twin side wheel carriers and jewel-like Marchal lights. Given the Paris registration number '740 X 75', the 4.25 litre saw enthusiastic use in Monsieur Boucheron's hands. Treated to a rear axle overhaul during September / October 1938 including new gears and half-shafts, the Pillarless Sports Saloon also gained dual Lucas Mellotone horns in January 1940 (just months before the invasion of France). The horns were augmented by a centre-mounted spotlight complete with 'Projecteur' switch on the leather covered dashboard, while other unusual features included a rear-mounted ski rack and lightweight front seats. Relocating to England, the Bentley passed to one of Monsieur Boucheron's relations, Dr Louis Hamilton, and remained in his care until 2001. Entering the current ownership when Tennants auctioned off the entire contents of Dr Hamilton's magnificent home 'Southerly', the 4.25 Litre had lain dormant for decades. Found to be surprisingly sound and got going with a jury-rigged fuel supply and fresh battery etc, the pillarless sports saloon was nonetheless treated to a partial refurbishment. As well as a 'wings off / doors off' respray, re-upholstered seats and new headlining / carpets, the Bentley benefited from a cylinder head overhaul and fresh exhaust system etc. Pleasingly retaining its original factory-fitted engine (number P9BS) and distinctive Vanvooren coachwork, the four-seater has only recently been granted the UK registration number 'YWG 928'. Never fully restored, it has been sparingly used over the past sixteen years and is still running on an oil-filled coil! Only being offered for sale due to the vendor's poor health, the 'Boucheron Bentley' is now seeking a third family to own it and perhaps make it the jewel in the crown of their collection.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.

1978 Panther Lima DTV- A rare Dealer Team Vauxhall (DTV) version - Completely refurbished in 1999 and has covered a mere 3000 miles since- Subject to a fresh service, new clutch and offered with receipts and old MOTsThe Panther Westwinds Lima was a fun two-seat Roadster based on Vauxhall Magnum mechanicals. The sale car is one of the rare Dealer Team Vauxhall (DTV) versions, whose 2.3-litre engine therefore benefits from a big-valve cylinder head fed by a pair of twin-choke Dellorto carburettors, high lift camshaft and four-branch exhaust manifold. The related transmission is a five rather than four-speed manual unit. The model is quick, with a 0-60mph time nearer 6 than 7 seconds. 'LCX 430T' is an extremely smart example finished in Red over Silver complemented by Black interior trim. The car was completely refurbished in 1999 and has covered a mere 3000 miles since, and is now offered complete with a fresh service, new clutch and reclining seats (the old ones are available), colour-co-ordinated inertia reel seat belts, air horns, push button start and battery isolation switch, all receipts and old MOTs, plus one valid to September 18, 2018.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.

1987 Ford Sierra RS500 Cosworth- First registered to Ford's competition department & 23,100 miles from new - Presented in the livery of the Texaco Eggenberger car raced in 1987 by Klaus Ludwig and Klaus Niedwiedz - Current ownership since 2007 and build number 007 - Offered with a collection of old MOT certificates, sundry paper work, original service book plus sales brochure This very interesting fast Ford, build number 007, is one of just 500 righthand drive RS500 homologation specials created for the company by Aston Martin Tickford, with the aim of making the already highly competitive Sierra Cosworth 'unbeatable on the race tracks'. Probably a press car that was first registered to Ford's competition department in Cologne, before becoming the property of a Formula One manager and then part of an important collection of Ford vehicles after its arrival in the UK in 2007 when purchased by the current vendor. It is presented in the livery of the Texaco Eggenberger car raced in 1987 by Klaus Ludwig and Klaus Niedwiedz, with which they clinched the Entrant's division of the World Touring Car Championship for Ford, and would also have won the Driver's section too, had the RS500 not been disqualified from the James Hardie 1000 round in Australia for 'wheel arch panel irregularities'. 'E163 KHK' is understood to have covered only 23,100 miles from new and is offered with a collection of old MOT certificates, sundry German paper work, original service book plus sales brochure and it's understood the RS500 will possess a fresh MOT by the time of sale. The vendor classes its bodywork, Black paintwork, Grey interior trim, 2-0 litre engine and five-speed manual gearbox as all being in 'excellent' condition. A rare opportunity. Always quick to support the performance and motorsport markets, Ford introduced the be-winged XR4i in 1983, followed by the XR 4x4 in 1985, and the Sierra RS Cosworth in 1986, which was conceived to gain homologation for Group A touring car racing, and out of which grew the all-conquering RS500 Cosworth. The intention was to finish all RS500s in Black but, while most were, 56 ended up White and 52 were painted Moonstone Blue. The key differences between the standard product and the RS500 were: thicker walled cylinder block: larger Garrett turbocharger and intercooler; uprated fuel pump; uprated oil and cooling systems and secondary rear spoiler. The engine upgrades increased the output from 204bhp to 222bhp and the RS500 ultimately won 15 national series, including the 1990 British Touring Car Championship.PLEASE NOTE: We understand this Vehicle has not been presented for an MOT due to a braking system issue, which the Vendor believes may be linked to the ABS pump. A spare pump accompanies the Lot.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl. VAT

1970 Jaguar E-Type 4.2 Coupe- Warranted 13,000 miles from new in the hands of three American owners- Power steering, four-speed manual transmission, Black leather upholstery- Checked over by ADR Engineering of Wokingham since being imported to the UKIntroduced in August 1968, the Series II version of Jaguar's immortal E-Type sported redesigned bumpers and lights. Less noticeable was its enlarged front air intake which in conjunction with dual cooling fans made the newcomer better behaved in hot weather and heavy traffic. With its 4235cc DOHC straight-six engine developing a quoted 265bhp/283lbft, the Jaguar was reputedly capable of nearly 150mph and 0-60mph in 7.5 seconds. Rarer than its open two-seater and 2+2-seater siblings, just 3,786 left-hand drive fixed-head two-seaters were made.Finished in Opalescent Dark Blue with Black leather upholstery, this particular example - chassis P1R27815 - was supplied new to Jim Cox of Colorado Springs. Fitted with power steering and four-speed manual transmission, the Jaguar had covered just 881 miles by the time he sold it to F&R Import Ltd of Engleton, Colorado as an accompanying written affidavit from a Notary Public dated 2nd January 1987 confirms. Acquired by local enthusiast Karl Morgan thereafter, the E-Type returned to F&R for various works including a thorough engine overhaul with bills on file totalling some $14,600. Routinely serviced over the next twenty years (the mileage being stated as 10,925 on an invoice dated April 1995), the two-seater also benefited from the installation of a new wiring loom and general electrical refurbishment by Vintage Jag Works of Blackfoot in 2010 ($4,557). At some point ownership transferred to Karl's son David, of Idaho Springs, from whom the UK importer bought the car last year with a written affidavit certifying that its odometer reading of 12,990 miles was correct. Since arriving in the UK, the Jaguar has been checked over and treated to a full service, fresh battery, new front brake discs and rubber mountings, seals, bushes and hoses by ADR Engineering of Wokingham. Said to be in `very fine condition throughout', this highly original, `matching numbers', low mileage E-Type is worthy of close inspection.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.

1996 Porsche 911 Carrera Cabriolet- 1 of 129 UK-supplied cars fitted with the more powerful Varioram engine and six-speed manual transmission- Warranted 35,000 miles from new and with its previous keeper for thirteen years- Said to 'drive superbly as you would expect from such a nice, clean, low mileage example'Notable as Porsche's last air-cooled 911 range, the 993-series was introduced in September 1993. A quantifiable improvement in terms of handling, ride quality and refinement, the newcomer featured a monocoque bodyshell that was some twenty percent stiffer than that of the outgoing 964 series plus more planted multi-link rear suspension. Further benefiting from power-assisted rack and pinion steering and four-wheel ventilated disc brakes, the 993 was powered by a reworked 3.6 litre flat-six engine allied to six-speed manual or semi-automatic Tiptronic transmission. With some 272bhp and 243lbft of torque on tap, it was reputedly capable of 0-60mph in 5.5 seconds and 167mph. Debuting in March 1994, the Cabriolet version boasted a specially reinforced windscreen and snug electrically-operated canvas hood. Updated alongside its coupe and targa siblings, the soft-top gained the improved Varioram powerplant for the 1996-model year (August 1995 onwards). Developing an extra 13bhp and 8lbft of torque thanks to its improved volumetric efficiency, the revised unit gave a small but welcome boost to performance. For many the last 'true' 911, the 993 made way for the water-cooled 996 in 1998.Finished in Iris Blue with Grey Marble leather upholstery, this particular example is understood to be 1 of just 129 UK-supplied 993 Carrera Cabriolets to feature the more powerful Varioram engine and six-speed manual transmission. Warranted to have covered just 35,000 miles from new, the Porsche belonged to its previous keeper for thirteen years. Able to boast an electric hood with Dark Blue cover, wind deflector, Clarion CD player, four-spoke leather steering wheel, air-conditioning, headlight powerwash, hardback sports seats, 17-inch alloy wheels shod with four fresh Continental tyres, Porsche fitted carpet mats and electric windows, the 2+2-seater is said to `drive superbly as you would expect from such a nice, clean, low mileage example'. Offered for sale with extensive service history and fresh MOT certificate.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl. VAT

1967 Volkswagen Type 2 Camper Van- Restored c.2013/14 by Auto Impressions including new floors and outriggers- Retrimmed interior in leather, rock n roll bed, engine overhauled- Green / White with Green leather, RHD'Barry' has been in its current ownership for seven years, during which this now exceedingly smart camper has been treated to a comprehensive restoration by Auto Impressions of Reading. Most of the Volkwagen's internal and external panels have been renewed, including the floor and cross-members, and all the running gear has been either replaced or refurbished; as has the car's original 1500cc engine. Once finished, the exterior was repainted in the original colours of White over Green, while a new Green leather interior by Trimmania was installed complete with 'rock and roll' bed, cooker, fridge, sink and stereo. A period roof rack was also added and the suspension lowered by one inch for a superior ride. The vendor now unsurprisingly views the bodywork, paintwork, interior trim, flat-four engine and four-speed manual transmission as all being in 'very good' order and is now offering the Vdub complete with photos of the extensive work carried out.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.

1958 Jaguar XK150 S 3.4 Litre Roadster- The 7th righthand drive Roadster to be made and 48,300 recorded miles- Offered with a collection of old MOTs, invoices, dialogue of the restoration and Heritage certificate.- Extensive restoration in the 1990s by Goldsmith & Young of Warminster- Long term previous ownership, unleaded conversion and Coopercraft front brakesBy the time the XK150 was launched in May 1957, Jaguar had won Le Mans four times and was about to do so once again - what a backdrop against which to market a new sports car. Though the newcomer was a logical progression of the XK140, subtle changes to the bodywork gave this final iteration of the XK models a distinctly more modern air. The standard engine was the 3.4-litre DOHC straight six unit of the XK140, but most early 150s were fitted with the optional SE version that sported a cylinder head with larger exhaust valves and a pair of 1.75in SU carburettors. Still more power was available from 1958 in the form of the 'S' engine and its straight-port head linked to three SUs, for which 250bhp was claimed. By the time the model was superseded by the E-Type some 4,445 Fixed Head Coupes, 2,672 Drop Head Coupes and 2,265 Open Two Seaters had been produced.This exquisite 150 is possibly the first S version to be constructed and is certainly understood to be only the 7th righthand drive Roadster to leave the factory on the 4th December 1958 to Henlys of London. The first owner was a MR JHL Copper and its then understood to have been acquired by its long term previous keeper a Mr Murdoch Laing - initially of London but later Ross-shire, Scotland. 'VYR 764' was apparently treated to an extensive restoration of engine, bodywork and interior in the 1990s but, unhappy about the way it was progressing, Mr Laing had the task completed by Goldsmith & Young of Warminster. At some stage in the past the block has been replaced with a larger 3.8-litre unit, although it still retains the original triple carb head (no. VS1634-9) which has been modified to run on unleaded fuel and has been fitted with Coopercraft brakes. The vendor acquired the Jaguar in 2011, and presently considers the bodywork, paintwork, Tan leather interior, straight-six engine and four-speed manual transmission to all be in 'very good' condition. This rare and highly desirable XK is currently displaying (an unwarranted) 48,300 miles and is now being sold complete with collection of old MOTs and invoices, dialogue of the restoration and Heritage certificate.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.

1986 Ford Escort RS Turbo- The subject of much restoration / recommissioning during 2016- Original grey cloth upholstery, subtly modified / upgraded 1.6 litre turbocharged engine- MOT'd till April 2018Developed by Ford's Special Vehicle Engineering Department, the Escort RS Turbo broke cover in October 1984. Far more than a souped-up XR3i, the newcomer featured heavy-duty suspension, improved brakes and a viscous-coupling limited slip differential (the latter a road car first). A production run of 5,000 was planned to homologate the model for Group A competition but demand was such that 8,604 were made (with 5,576 being UK supplied). Only available in Diamond White - except for Lady Diana Spencer's unique Black example - the three-door sported a comprehensive body kit and was powered by a turbocharged 1597cc CVH four-cylinder engine allied to five-speed manual transmission. With some 132bhp and 133lbft of torque on tap, the Fast Ford was reputedly capable of 0-60mph in 7.8 seconds and 128mph. Described by Motor Sport magazine as "perhaps the most enjoyable hot hatch currently available on the British market", the Escort RS Turbo attracted a cult following that has gone from strength to strength over the last thirty-three years.Finished in Diamond White with Grey cloth upholstery, this particular example is described by the vendor as being in 'average / good' (interior trim), 'very good' (paintwork, electrical equipment) or 'excellent' (engine, gearbox, bodywork) condition. Reportedly the subject of an extensive restoration that was completed last year, C500 FKH' is further understood to have been featured in a recent Microsoft computer game. Offered for sale with V5C Registration Document and MOT certificate valid until April 2018.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl. VAT

1969 Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow MPW Two-Door Saloon- 1 of just 606 made - Professionally re-modelled to 'Bentley' specification by Royce Engineering some thirty years ago- Less than 76,000 miles from new and MOT'd till next AugustThe Shadow's arrival in 1965 was none too soon and did much to reverse the notion that Rolls-Royce was falling behind the times. It resulted in many firsts for the company, including: unitary construction rather than separate body/chassis units, disc rather than drum brakes and independent rear suspension. Though shorter and narrower than the Silver Cloud III it replaced, the John Polwhele Blatchley-penned Shadow nevertheless possessed greater space for both luggage and passengers and certainly boasted far more contemporary looks. At launch it was powered by a 172bhp V8 engine of 6230cc, though this was enlarged to 6750cc during 1970. Early cars employed the same GM automatic transmission as the Silver Cloud, but this was superseded by the much vaunted Turbo Hydramatic system from 1970 onwards. The car's famed 'magic carpet' ride was achieved courtesy of a high-pressure hydraulic system licensed from Citroen. Initially it featured self-levelling at both ends, but this was deleted from the front in 1969. A two-door Saloon variant with coachwork by Mulliner Park Ward was made available from 1966, just 606 examples of which were produced before the model morphed into the Corniche in 1971.On behalf of a valued client, this decidedly handsome Mulliner Park Ward two-door Saloon was converted from a Rolls-Royce into a Bentley 30 years ago, by marque specialist Royce Engineering. It is presented in its original livery of Regal Red coachwork, Beige hide upholstery and Red carpets. The vendor presently classes the V8 engine and automatic transmission as 'excellent' and the bodywork, paintwork and interior trim as 'very good'. The indicated mileage of 75,800 is apparently confirmed by the old MOTs that accompany the car, along with the driver's instruction manual, original tools, and even the emergency window winder handle; plus a current MOT certificate valid until August 18th 2018.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.

1946 Rover 12hp Sports Saloon- Entered from a private Irish collection- Older restoration in good overall condition- Elegant four-light, sports saloon coachworkUnveiled in 1937, the Rover P2 range comprised 10, 12, 14, 16 and 20hp models. Benefiting from a stiffer chassis and rod-operated drum brakes, the newcomers were widely praised by the contemporary press for their quality, looks and performance. Powered by a 1496cc OHV four-cylinder engine allied to four-speed manual transmission, the 12hp variant was credited with a nigh on 70mph top speed. Available in either 6-light Saloon or 4-Light Sports Saloon guises, a Tourer variant was added when production recommenced after WW2. Some 11,786 P2 12hp cars were made up until September 1939 and another 4,840 between 1946 and 1948.First registered in West Ham (or so its 'BJD 117' number plate would imply), little is otherwise known about the early history of this handsome 4-Light Sports Saloon. Belonging to David Whitehouse of Malton, North Yorkshire by August 1985, the Rover was sold to Michael Cayley Esq. of Sale, Cheshire some five years later. Mr Cayley is presumed to have carried out various restoration works before selling the 12hp to Clive Richardson Esq. of Welshpool in September 2008. As well as fitting a stainless steel exhaust, Mr Richardson paid attention to the car's steering box, brakes, shock absorbers and headlamps reflectors etc sourcing various parts from Meteor Spares Service Ltd of Nottinghamshire in the process. The Sports Saloon's last keeper prior to entering the current ownership was Jodie Green Esq. of Ely, Cambs. The most recent MOT certificate on file was issued during December 2010 since when the Rover appears to have covered some 700 miles. Presenting as an older restoration, the 12hp appears to pleasingly retain its original Brown leather upholstery and carries a supplier's plaque for Grose Ltd of Northampton to its dashboard. Offered for sale with V5C Registration Document and assorted invoices.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl. VAT

1947 Triumph 1800 Roadster- Entered from a private Irish collection- 1 of just 2,501 made- Engine overhauled by Maidstone Sports Cars during 1990Despite Donald Healey's best efforts to reinvent Triumph as the British equivalent of Alfa Romeo, the firm was essentially bankrupt by the time war broke out in 1939. Subsequently revitalised by Standard impresario Sir John Black, Triumph was able to launch two new models - the 1800 Saloon and 1800 Roadster - during 1946. Styled by Frank Callaby, the latter was a flamboyant mix of 1930s styling cues and boasted what was reputedly the last dickie seat to be incorporated into a production car. Bodied in 'Birmabright' aluminium alloy over ash (save for its steel pontoon front wings), the Roadster was underpinned by a tubular ladder-frame chassis featuring independent front suspension, a 'live' rear axle and four-wheel drum brakes. Powered by a 1776cc OHV four-cylinder engine (shared with the contemporary Jaguar range) allied to four-speed column-change manual transmission, the model was reputedly capable of 80mph. Superseded by a larger-engined version in 1948, just 2,501 1800 Roadsters are thought to have been made.According to its accompanying British Motor Industry Heritage Trust Certificate, this particular example - chassis TRD/1086 - was built to right-hand drive export specification complete with kilometres speedometer on 28th August 1947. An underbonnet plaque for Fergus Motors of New York suggests that the Triumph was resident in America for a while. Repatriated during the late 1980s, the Roadster had its engine overhauled by Maidstone Sports Cars during June 1990 (cylinder head refurbished, new valves / guides, fresh piston rings and big end bearings etc). Forming part of a private Irish collection for the last quarter of a century, this charming Triumph appears to be in basically good overall condition and started readily during our photography session (October 2017).PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.

1958 Jensen 541 Deluxe- Bare shell restoration 2013/2014 including retrim with Maserati-sourced leather, wooden dash etc.- JOC 'Best in Class' cup holder 2015/2016, Rosso Red with Mustard leather- Laycock overdrive, disc brakes, triple SUs, one of just 53 examples builtLike its contemporary Interceptor, Jensen's 541 flowed from the pen of Eric Neale, and first saw the light of day at the 1953 London Motor Show, with production commencing the following year. It had many points of interest. For example it was the first Jensen to feature a predominantly glass reinforced plastic body, the entire front section of which hinged upwards in order to give optimum access to the engine compartment. The material was chosen to overcome the relative post-war shortage of steel, and provide an economical solution to the problem of manufacturing a complex design in small numbers. There was also the benefit of a reduction in weight and, with the contribution of alloy-skinned doors and Perspex rear windows, the newcomer's overall dry weight was 2,690 lb versus the Interceptor's 3,020. Interestingly, not only was the body impressively light, but aerodynamic too - the drag coefficient of 0.39 being notably low for a large car of the period concerned. So to another first - in Deluxe specification, the 541 was also the first British four-seater car to be equipped with Dunlop disc brakes all round.The innovative body was mounted on a rigid steel chassis and the ensemble powered by a triple carburettor version of Austin's proven DS5 engine, complete with Weslake high compression cylinder head. The resulting output of 135bhp was sufficient to propel Motor magazine's test car to 60mph in 10.8 seconds and on to a mean top speed of 115.8mph. The unit drove through a four-speed manual transmission for which there was the option of Laycock de Normanville overdrive. Suspension was independent at the front by wishbones and coil springs, while the live rear axle was supported by leaf springs and further located by a Panhard rod. A total of 226 541s are known to have been built between 1954 and 1959, 53 of which were the Deluxe version that featured all the otherwise optional extras as standard. The original 541 was supplanted by the 541R and then 541S, bringing total series production to c.546, of which the Jensen Owners' Club believes less than 150 remain in existence.The appropriately registered 'TSV 541' now offered for sale is a 541 Deluxe that came off the line in November 1958. We should set the scene by pointing out that it won the Jensen Owners' Club's Best in Class Cup in 2015/2016, so is certainly no run-of-the-mill example. It was acquired by the vendor in 2012 having been dry stored for around 20 years. At this point it was stripped to a bare shell and every component, large or small, either replaced or refurbished as required. The exterior finish of vibrant Rosso Red was left unmolested, as it remained in fine order from an earlier repaint. The car was, however, treated to a new Maserati-sourced Mustard Yellow leather interior that's complemented by a bespoke light-coloured wood facia. This delightful Jensen seemingly wants for nothing, as its comprehensive specification includes: overdrive gearbox, twin stainless steel exhausts, chrome wire wheels, auxiliary front lights, period sports wing mirrors, and a period push-button radio fed by a roof-mounted aerial. The vendor currently classes the interior trim and transmission as 'excellent', the bodywork and paintwork as 'very good to excellent', and the straight-six engine as 'very good'. 'TSV 541' has so far travelled just 3,295 miles since the restoration was completed in 2014, and this lovely example of one of the British industry's rarer classic GT cars is now being offered complete with an MOT valid into October 2018, together with certificates covering the full period of the Jensen's current ownership.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.

1965 Jaguar E-Type 4.2 Coupe- 1 of 1,584 RHD Series 1 4.2 Fixed Head Coupes made- Purchased by the vendor from Eagle E-Types as a project car and extensively restored during 2014-2015- Original engine but sympathetically upgraded with a Tremec T5 gearbox, electronic ignition, Bluetooth 'hands free' telephone facility etcTriumphantly launched at the March 1961 Geneva Salon, Jaguar's '150mph' E-Type was the sports car that (a) put the swinging into the 'swinging sixties', (b) no lesser a man than Enzo Ferrari dubbed 'the most beautiful car in the world', and (c) transported a galaxy of stars from Brigitte Bardot to George Best, Tony Curtis to Donald Campbell and Roy Orbison to Steve McQueen. Though not designed as a racer, the E-Type was nevertheless a direct descendent of the all-conquering D-Type and thus had motorsport embedded in its DNA. Equipped with all-round independent suspension, rack and pinion steering and four-wheel disc brakes, its handling and roadholding proved more than a match for most rivals. Just one month from launch Graham Hill and Roy Salvadori drove the Equipe Endeavour E-Type ('ECD 400') to victory at Oulton Park and some fifty-six years later the model remains a force to be reckoned with in historic racing. Updated during August 1964, the Jaguar gained a larger 4235cc XK DOHC straight-six engine and more user-friendly manual gearbox with synchromesh on each of its four forward speeds. Thankfully, the Big Cat's beautiful styling remained unaltered until the introduction of the so-called Series 1.5 cars during September 1967 by which time just 1,584 RHD Series 1 4.2 Fixed Head Coupes had been made. According to its accompanying Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust Production Record Trace Certificate, this particular example - chassis 1E20499 - was completed on 26th March 1965 and despatched to South London Motors Ltd early the following month. First owned by Derek Clark, it subsequently passed to Surrey residents R.H. Hopkins, K. Lockhart, Michael Hammond and Edward Baylis. Taken off the road during the 1970s, the E-Type was re-registered with the DVLA under its original registration number 'ELA 867C' on April 1st 1979. Changing hands three times thereafter, the Fixed Head Coupe was purchased by the vendor in October 2013 from Henry Pearman of renowned specialist Eagle E-Types. Mr Pearman had been holding the Jaguar in stock as a suitable candidate for one of his company's restorations but agreed to sell it 'as was'.Enlisting the services of craftsmen local to his Suffolk home, the vendor had chassis 1E20499 treated to an extensive 'bare metal' restoration during 2014-2015. The bodyshell was repaired as necessary and its opening panels trued for alignment before being painted Opalescent Dark Green. The interior was re-upholstered by Aldridge Trimming and the brightwork refurbished. A Tremec T5 five-speed manual gearbox was fitted for improved high-speed cruising (the original gearbox and propshaft come with the car) and the E-Type further upgraded via the installation of a heated rear window, electronic ignition, updated starter motor, Bluetooth 'hands free' telephone facility, period looking but modern stereo, improved cooling and uprated brakes. Sent to marque specialist Roach Classics Ltd for a stem to stern 'spanner check', 'ELA 867C' was found to need little by way of adjustment / improvement. Unhappy with the performance of the car's original 'matching numbers' engine the vendor has just recently had it overhauled again this time by Woodbridge Classic Cars.Still being 'run in', the straight-six started readily upon inspection and ran well during our recent photography visit (October 2017). A handsome, home market car, 'ELA 867C' has much to recommend it. Offered for sale with V5C Registration Document, original logbook, restoration photos and MOT certificate valid until September 2018.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.

1968 Jaguar E-Type 4.2 2+2- Subject of a gradual comprehensive restoration that included conversion to righthand drive- Dispalys a credible 59,705 miles and fitted with five-speed manual gearbox- Offered complete with photos of the respray and engine overhaul`STN 169F' is a Series 1.5 model that was dry stored in the USA for 25 years before being repatriated in 2005. Since then it has been the subject of a gradual comprehensive restoration that's included conversion to righthand drive, a bare metal respray in British Racing Green, the installation of new Black leather interior trim (with the exception of the rear seat material), and overhaul of the 4.2-litre engine. Along the way it has acquired a stainless steel performance exhaust manifold and five-speed manual Getrag gearbox. However, due to unforeseen circumstances the Jaguar has remained unused since the completion of the work, and so is reluctantly being made available for sale. The odometer currently displays a credible (though unwarranted) 59,705 miles, and the vendor presently regards the car's bodywork, paintwork, XK engine and replacement transmission as all being in `very good condition, and the interior trim as `good'. The Jaguar comes complete with photos of the respray and engine overhaul. An affordable entry into the wonderful world of the E-Type.The 2+2 Fixed Head Coupe of the immortal E-Type (known as the XKE in America, where most examples were sold) was introduced in 1966. Nine inches longer and featuring a more vertical windscreen, it was equipped with a pair of small rear seats and a notably airy feel courtesy of its stretched wheelbase and raised roofline. It benefited from the same fully independent suspension, rack and pinion steering and disc brakes as its two-seater brethren. Powered by a 4,235cc DOHC straight six engine developing a quoted 265bhp and 283 lbft of torque, it was the first E-type model to list automatic transmission as an option. Only in production for some three years, a mere 5,600 are thought to have been built, just 1983 of which were examples of the Series 1.5 version.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.

1938 MG TA- Restored in 1980s and nicely mellowed with wonderful patina- Original registration number and buff logbook- History file including invoices and photos of the restorationAnnounced in 1936, the TA established the famous T-Series pedigree which would persist until the mid-1950s. Designed around a simple new ladder-type chassis frame, with beam axles and front and rear, allied to ultra-stiff leaf springs, the newcomer was powered by an overhead-valve engine allied to part-synchromesh four-speed manual transmission. The top speed was up to 75mph, the ride was firm, but the entire driving experience was exhilarating. A total of 3,003 TAs were produced until 1939.First registered on 6th April 1938 and understood to retain its original registration number, GRE 318 was restored during the 1980s and has been in the current ownership since 2005. Now finished in red with a lovely patina to the red leather seats, the car has been used sparingly by the vendor, mainly attending various shows around the country. Accompanied by a continuation buff logbook dating from 1960, Swansea V5C, assorted expired MoTs, invoices and restoration photographs, the most recent invoice on file relates to replacement of the master cylinder and front wheel brake cylinders in May 2017. Now only being offered for sale to assist with a family member's house purchase, this lovely TA is described as a "good useable example" with "very good" bodywork, engine, gearbox and interior and "good" paint.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.

1979 Porsche 928- Light Blue metallic with Pasha trim- Replacement AlliSport radiator, new injectors- Fuel system and brakes overhauledIntroduced at the 1977 Geneva Motor Show, the 928 was conceived (and priced) as the flagship of the Porsche range. A luxurious GT, it was styled in-house by American Tony Lapine as a replacement for the ageing 911. Ultimately, the newcomer failed to usurp its sibling despite becoming the only sports car ever to win the European Car of the Year title (1978). Built around a galvanised steel monocoque, the 2+2 made extensive use of aluminium for its wheels, doors, bonnet, transaxle housing, front suspension wishbones, rear suspension uprights, upper links and main cross member. Available with a choice of manual or automatic transmission the 928 was regarded as a crushingly capable Grand Tourer.This manual transmission 928 has been fitted with a replacement AlliSport radiator and new injectors whilst both the fuel system and brakes have benefited from being overhauled. The vendor informs us it has covered a genuine c.68,000 miles and that it "runs well". The car is accompanied by its handbooks, service book and assorted invoices and will have a new MoT in time for the sale.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.

2001 Aston Martin DB7 Vantage- 'Huge maintenance record with 15 Aston Martin stamps'- Last serviced at 86,672 miles and 'ready to go!'- Bi Xenon headlights, reverse parking sensors, Touchtronic semi-auto "For the record, the Aston Martin Symphony for 12 cylinders and 2 exhausts is the sweetest sound on tuned pipes this side of J.S. Bach himself . . . If Venus were to come calling as a GT coupe, she'd look like this" (Car and Driver, September 2000).Introduced at the March 1999 Geneva Salon, the Vantage version of Aston Martin's landmark DB7 broke with marque tradition by using a wholly different engine rather than a punchier version of its sister car's existing powerplant. Breathed on by Cosworth, the newcomer's 'heart' was a 5935cc 48-valve, all-alloy V12 that developed 420bhp and 400lbft. Initially available with a choice of six-speed manual or five-speed automatic transmission, the DB7 Vantage could be had with ZF's Touchtronic semi-auto from 2000 onwards (0-60mph in 4.9 seconds, limited 165mph top speed). To cope with such performance, the 2+2-seater's structure, suspension and brakes were all upgraded. Asked to rework his masterpiece, stylist Ian Callum added a reshaped back bumper, more pronounced sills, combined driving lamps / indicators and horizontal bars to the radiator grille. Priced at £92,500, Aston Martin's flagship came with central locking, electric windows / mirrors, traction control, ABS, air-conditioning, front airbags, alarm / immobilizer and 18-inch alloy wheels as standard. Notable as the marque's first V12 production model, the DB7 Vantage lasted until 2003 by which time some 2,385 coupes had been made.Finished in Buckinghamshire Green with Green-piped Cream leather upholstery, this particular example also boasts a walnut fascia, ZF 'Touchtronic' semi-auto transmission, reverse parking sensors, Bi Xenon headlights and fitted carpet mats. Last serviced at 86,672 miles, the DB7 Vantage is said to possess 'a huge maintenance history with fifteen Aston Martin stamps'. Described by the seller as 'beautiful looking and ready to go!', 'KE51 FKK' is offered for sale with V5C Registration Document and two keys.

A 2014 letter from the supplying dealer together with a copy of its stock book entry accompanies the car. In the current ownership for the past six years, it has been well maintained and benefits from the fitment of Koni shock absorbers and Eibach springs by Velocesport at a cost of over £4,000 having covered just 1,000 miles since.

1978 Triumph Stag- Part of the renowned Patrick Collection from new until December 2004 when it entered the current ownership- Notably late example that has covered just 10,800 miles from new- Original Passport to Service, handbook, Supercover documentation, 4-speed maual plus overdriveIntroduced in June 1970, the Triumph Stag was conceived as a luxury convertible sportscar to rival the likes of the R107-series Mercedes-Benz SL. As such, it came equipped with electric windows, power-assisted rack and pinion steering and servo-backed disc / drum brakes as standard. Based around a two-door monocoque bodyshell (stylist Giovanni Michelotti had physically shortened a pre-production Triumph 2000 saloon in order to fashion the initial prototype), the newcomer featured all-round independent suspension (McPherson strut front / semi-trailing arm rear) and a well laid-out 2+2 cabin. Neatly integrated, the substantial roll-over hoop that joined the B-pillars gained extra strength from a T-bar link to the windscreen frame. With some 145bhp and 167lbft of torque on tap from its bespoke 2997cc SOHC V8 engine, the model was reputedly capable of 120mph. Available with a choice of four-speed manual or three-speed automatic transmission all but the earliest Stags benefited from both hard- and soft-top roofs. Despite being in production for seven years during which time 25,877 cars were made, a mere 9,500 or so are thought to have survived.Retaining its original Passport to Service, handbook and Supercover documentation, this particular example formed part of the renowned Patrick Collection from new until December 2004 when it entered the current ownership. Issued with its last MOT certificate on January 7th 2004 at 10,187 miles, the Triumph has only covered an additional 700 miles since then. Resprayed from Red to Jade Green at the Patrick family's request before it even left the showroom, the Stag was treated to routine maintenance whilst in their care including a new clutch and overdrive overhaul etc. Benefiting from a Kenlowe fan, the factory-fitted V8 engine started readily during our recent photography session (October 2017). Offered for sale with the aforementioned paperwork, handwritten Patrick Collection maintenance log and assorted old MOT certificates (including its first one at 3,576 miles).PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.

1938 International D2 Pickup- Imported to the UK during the late 1990s and restored thereafter- A decidedly rare sight on British roads- Subtly upgraded with an alternator and 12-volt electricsPeriod pickups tend to ooze character, and that's certainly the case with 'SSJ 914'. It's presented with Green over Black bodywork and rides on Red wheels shod with whitewall tyres - the load bay features a fully boarded floor and wooden side rails. Built in 1938, this charming D2 Pickup was restored 60 years later, following its importation to the UK around 1997/1998. Its electrical system benefits from a conversion from 6 to 12 volts and an alternator in place of the original dynamo. The brake system has recently been checked and cleaned, and the vendor currently classifies the bodywork, six-cylinder engine and three-speed manual transmission as being in 'very good' condition, the paintwork as being 'good', and the Red and Green interior trim as 'average'. A splendid vehicle for helping to promote a business or just having fun. By International's standards, the D2 was a hot seller, with more than 80,000 examples manufactured between 1938 and 1940.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.

1963 MG Midget 1100- Finished in Iris Blue matched to a Blue interior and MOT'd into August 2018- 96,800 recorded miles and subject to an extensive restoration in 2008- Described as 'Very Good' with regards to the paintwork, interior and engineThis attractive Midget is a righthand drive home market example manufactured in May 1963, and therefore powered by the 1098cc version of BMC's immortal A Series engine. Between 2008 and 2010 it was treated to a bare metal restoration, during which it was repainted in its original livery of Iris Blue and treated to a complete retrim; also to original specification. The vendor has retained the car in dry storage, restricting its use to car meets and shows only. He presently grades the four-speed manual transmission as `excellent' and the bodywork, paintwork, interior trim and four-cylinder engine as all being in `very good' condition. Summarising the MG as `rust free, on the button, and ready to drive away', he is now offering it complete with Heritage certificate and an MOT valid until August 17 of next year. The car's total indicated mileage currently stands at totally feasible (though unwarranted) 96,801.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl. VAT

1990 Ford Sierra Sapphire RS Cosworth 4x4- 2 private keepers & just 15,843 miles from new- Complete with original book pack with all handbooks plus service book- Described as 'excellent' with regards to the bodywork, paintwork, interior, engine and manual five-speed gearboxReleased in the September of 1982, the Ford Sierra was a replacement for the ubiquitous Cortina and its German sibling, the Taunus. The aerodynamic styling was arguably ahead of its time and caused initial controversy - one eminent UK journalist nicknaming it the 'jelly mould'. Ford had the last laugh, however, with sales eventually reaching 1,299,993 units over the 11 years of production; making it Britain's 10th most popular car up to that time.Always quick to support the performance and motorsport markets, Ford introduced the be-winged XR4i in 1983. This was followed by the XR 4x4 in 1985, the Sierra RS Cosworth in 1986, the Sierra RS500 Cosworth in 1987, the Sierra Sapphire in 1988 and the Sierra Sapphire RS Cosworth 4x4 in 1990; some 12,250 of which were manufactured before Ford's power mantle was assumed by the Escort RS Cosworth in 1992. Though the 4x4 Sapphire never managed to emulate the two-wheel drive Cosworth's victory in a round of the World Rally Championship (Corsica, 1988), it nevertheless become a popular and successful weapon in national events, and examples are still contesting club rallies to this day.The immaculate example offered is understood to have started life as a showroom demonstrator and has only covered 15,843 miles to this day. Following periods in the care of St Helens Ford and then Corner Ford of Coventry, it was the property of a Mr Nigel Leek of the same city from 1990 until acquired by the vendor in 2007. Equipped with Bosch Green injectors and a ceramic clutch, the Cossie is presently considered by its vendor to have 'excellent' bodywork, White paintwork, Black interior trim, 2-litre engine and manual five-speed gearbox. He is now offering it complete with original book pack with all handbooks plus service book, collection of old invoices, tax discs and MOT certificates, plus one valid into August 2018.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.

1959 Jaguar XK150 SE Convertible- A right-hand drive, 'home market' car that has been extensively restored in recent years including conversion from fixed- to drophead coupe coachwork- Fitted with a replacement 3.8 litre engine modified to 'S' specification with triple SU carburettors plus a Getrag five-speed manual gearbox and electric power steering- Spax adjustable dampers all-round, 4-pot Coopercraft front brake callipers, high efficiency radiator core, alternator, hi-torque starter motor, stainless steel exhaust system etcThis stunningly-presented XK150 is a genuine righthand drive home market example that has not only been extensively restored and upgraded in recent years, but converted from Fixed to Drophead Coupe coachwork. The original engine has been supplanted by an S specification unit fed by a trio of 2 inch SU carburettors. The motor also benefits from: twin fuel pumps: alternator; high torque starter motor; 4.2-litre water pump conversion; high efficiency radiator core; stainless steel exhaust system; and battery isolator switch. It nowadays drives through a Getrag five-speed manual gearbox to an S type rear axle with limited slip differential. The braking system features four-pot Coopercraft front calipers and Aeroquip hoses, while the suspension has been improved with competition bushes on the front and Spax adjustable dampers all round. The Jaguar rides on 15 inch E-Type chrome wire wheels shod with 205 x70 Vredestein Classic Sprint tyres. Other improvements of note include power steering and a 16 inch wood rim steering wheel. 'TCA 740' has been finished using modern paints and rust-proofing materials and is presented with British Racing Green bodywork complemented by Magnolia-coloured leather interior trim, Tan hood and hood envelope, and Dark Green carpet. The vendor unsurprisingly presently classes the car's bodywork, paintwork, interior trim, XK engine and transmission as all being in 'Very Good' condition. A superior example fully suited to today's roads and traffic.Introduced in the May of 1957, the XK150 was the last Jaguar sportscar to utilise a separate chassis. Though a logical progression of the XK140, subtle changes gave it a distinctly more modern air. At launch, it was offered in Fixed and Drophead Coupe guise, the Roadster option following in 1958. By the time the model was superseded by the E-Type in 1961, some 4,445 Fixed Head Coupes, 2,672 Drophead Coupes and 2,265 Roadsters had been produced.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.

1950 MG YA- Known history from new & just 23,070 miles- Purchased new by Doctor Henry Lawson of Ambleside.- Treated it to a bare metal respray in the original colour of Pallendine Red.This delightful and incredibly original MG was purchased new by Doctor Henry Lawson of Ambleside. Only months later he went abroad and 'LTJ 900' was placed in storage for the next 22 years. It then joined the private collection of Bruce Hewitt of Windermere, but didn't revisit the public roads until it became the property of John Connell in 1993 - after 43 years it had covered just 14,000 miles and has only driven 23,070 to this day. Since acquiring the MG from Mr Connell's son in 2005, the vendor has treated it to a bare metal respray in the original colour of Pallendine Red.

1970 Morris Minor 1000 Saloon- Part of the Old Hall collection since July 1977 and just one previous keeper shown on its V5C Reg Doc- Used by the vendor's children to learn to drive and as shared 'weekend wheels'- Understood to have covered just 42,900 miles from new and MOT'd till Oct 2018Debuting alongside Jaguar's superbly glamorous XK120 at the 1948 London Motor Show, the Morris Minor was somewhat overshadowed. An exceptionally advanced design, the Minor was the brainchild of Sir Alec Issigonis. With a monocoque chassis, independent torsion-bar front suspension, all-round hydraulic drum brakes and rack and pinion steering the model possessed excellent handling but lacked the horsepower to exploit it. However, things improved markedly when the four-cylinder 1098cc OHV A-series equipped Series V was introduced in 1962. With up to 45bhp and 60lbft of torque being transmitted to its rear wheels via a four-speed manual gearbox, the Series V was capable of some 77mph.Reputedly first owned by Mrs Nellie Baldwin of Thirsk - the sole previous keeper listed on its V5C Registration Document - this particular example has formed part of the Old Hall collection since July 1977. Used by the vendor's children to learn to drive and as shared 'weekend wheels', the Morris is understood to have covered just 42,900 miles from new.

1993 Mercedes-Benz 300 GDS- Part of the Old Hall collection since May 2003- Desirable short wheelbase, 3-litre diesel, five-speed manual example- 32 entries in the service book and MOT'd till October 2018Development of the G-Wagen - short for Gelandewagen or 'Cross Country Vehicle' - began during the early 1970s at the suggestion of the Shah of Iran (then a major Mercedes-Benz shareholder). Exhaustively tested amidst the German coalfields, Sahara Desert and Artic Circle, the first workable prototype emerged during 1974. Entering production five years later, the G-Wagen began its metamorphosis from functional off-roader to luxury SUV in 1981 when niceties such as air-conditioning and automatic transmission joined the options list. Available in short- and long-wheelbase guises, Mercedes-Benz's evergreen 4x4 was thoroughly revised for 1990. Rechristened the 463 G-Class, it gained a trio of electric locking differentials, full-time 4WD, ABS brakes and an upgraded interior complete with wooden accents.Supplied new by main dealer Monarch Cars (Tamworth) Ltd, 'L766 COJ' returned to them for regular maintenance up until 118,242 miles. Entrusted to Marques of Tamworth and LA Services thereafter, its last oil change was apparently carried out some 2,000 miles ago at an indicated 166,085 miles. Part of the Old Hall collection since May 2003, this desirable short-wheelbase 463 G-Class is powered by a 3-litre straight-six diesel engine allied to five -speed manual transmission.

1965 Austin-Healey 3000 MKIII- A desirable home market, 'matching numbers' car - Supplied new by Cogger & Hawkins Ltd of Aylesbury complete with wire wheels and overdrive- Recently repainted and re-trimmed with 93,700 recorded milesUnlike many Big Healeys we see these days, `APO 373C is a genuine matching numbers, home market example that came off line in July 1965 destined for the dealer Cogger and Hawkins of Aylesbury, Bucks. It was built with a considerable number of desirable factory-fitted options including: overdrive, wire wheels, adjustable steering column, tonneau cover, laminated windscreen and heater. Fifty two years on, and the mileage stands at an eminently credible (be it unwarranted) total of 93,700. In 2009 the car benefited from an overhaul of its twin SU carburettors and the installation of an electronic ignition system. The gearbox and overdrive unit were overhauled in 2016, and in recent times the Healey has been repainted in its current shade of Blue, retrimmed in Blue-piped Cream hide and treated to a fresh Blue mohair hood. Taking all these improvements into account, the vendor presently views the bodywork, paintwork, interior trim, straight-six engine and manual four-speed gearbox as all being `very good' order, and is now selling the 3000 complete with Heritage certificate, and collection of invoices and old MOTs, plus a current MOT valid into March of next year.The Austin-Healey 100 was the toast of the 1952 London Motor Show, from when the newcomer enjoyed steady development. The four-cylinder cars gave way to the 100-Six of 1956, which in turn was replaced by the first of the 3000s in 1959. The final iteration was the 3000 MKIII, which was launched in October 1963 and mildly upgraded (Phase 2) in May the following year.

1953 Armstrong Siddeley Sapphire- Ideal restoration project- Swansea V5C- Blue with red leather, manual gearboxLaunched in 1952, the Sapphire range was powered by an advanced 3.4-litre six-cylinder hemi-head unit allied to either automatic or manual transmission as in the example offered here. Despite costing more than most rivals, the Sapphire was well-received and sold well before the company ceased production of motor cars in 1960 in order to concentrate on aircraft engineering.Purchased as a complete project in Devon in 2015 by a previous owner who intended to carry out a full restoration, work never commenced and the car was recently acquired by the vendor and fitted with a new 65AH battery, the missing ignition key replaced, engine started and found to "run well", other systems checked over, leaving just the coachwork to be refurbished or providing an opportunity to carry out a more comprehensive restoration depending on your preference. Sold strictly as viewed, it is offered with original Handbook, Workshop Manual and copy Spare parts Manual.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl. VAT

1974 Cadillac Eldorado Convertible- Subject to a braking system refurbishment in 2016 and a gearbox overhaul this year - Imported into the UK in 1981 and current ownership since 2012- Offered with a collection of old MOT certificates, invoices plus owner's manualThe Eldorado was a luxury offering that ran from 1952 to 2002 via 10 generations. The beautifully presented sale car is a fifth generation example powered by a V8 engine of 8.2 litres driving through a three-speed automatic transmission. Styling changes that differentiated the 1974 cars included: 5mph impact rear bumpers; horizontal tail lamps; fine mesh radiator grilles; and revised `space age' instrument panels. `SYP 183S' is finished in the striking combination of White hood over Red bodywork matched to a White interior. It was imported into the UK in 1981 and repainted in 2011 before being purchased by the vendor the following year. The braking system was refurbished in 2016 and this year included a £3,696 gearbox overhaul by Oakdene Automatic Transmissions of Nottingham. The vendor currently grades the engine and transmission as `excellent', and the bodywork, paintwork and interior trim as `very good'. The Caddy comes complete with old MOT certificates, invoices plus owner's manual and a current MOT into April 2018.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl. VAT

1943 Ford GPW Jeep- Used in the European Theatre of Operations during World War Two (and retains a bullet hole to its inner wing)- Later saw service with the Norwegian Armed Forces for many years- Runs and drives well and has been to the D-Day beaches recentlyArguably more iconic than a Sherman Tank or P-51 Mustang, the Jeep is for many the definitive WW2 vehicle. Equipped with a torquey L-headed 2.2-litre engine driving all four wheels via a three-speed manual box and two-speed transfer case, the tough, go anywhere four-seater did its job exceptionally well. By the end of the war, 647,870 Jeeps had been produced - 281,448 of which were manufactured by Ford. Reported to have seen service in the European Theatre of Operations during World War Two, this Jeep carries a corroborating bullet hole to its inner wing which in turn explains the presence of a replacement Kaiser Supersonic Model 4L134 engine. Otherwise, the 4x4 is thought to retain its original body tub and seat frames (the latter with the correct 'F' logo still clearly stamped into them). Maintained and used by the Norwegian Army for decades, the Jeep presents as a workhorse rather than a show queen. Driven from Norway to the UK, it is variously described by the vendor as being in 'good' (paintwork), 'very good' (engine, interior trim) or 'excellent' (bodywork, electrical equipment, transmission) condition. Taken to the D-Day Beaches recently, chassis 112537 is among the more authentic Jeeps that we have encountered.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl. VAT

1943 International Harvester M5 Half-Track Personnel Carrier- Used during the Allied liberation of Europe most likely by the Polish forces- Subsequently seconded to the French Army who stationed it in French Guyana, South America for decades- Brought back to France in the 1980s and sold to Belgian collector, and Supreme Court Judge, Mr Louis Amerijckx who stored it in the grounds of his chateau- Acquired from Mr Amerijckx by Ivo Rigter in Summer 1987 and treated to a 2,500-hour, 'chassis up' restoration over the next twenty-seven years!- Correct-type engine was overhauled by the Bugatti works during the 1960s (and again as part of the refurbishment). Genuine parts were used wherever possible and sourced from all over the globe- Vehicle is liveried in the markings of the Polish 10th Regiment Dragonders and as a tribute to the famous Polish SOE Agent Maria 'Krystyna' Janina Skarbek. Surviving WW2, she became a British Citizen and took the name Christine GranvilleConceived as a high-mobility infantry vehicle capable of resisting small arms fire and shell / mortar splinters whilst carrying a dozen troops at speeds in excess of 40mph, the M3 Half-Track was also considerably easier to drive than a Full-Track machine. Despite the best efforts of the White, Autocar and Diamond T Motor Companies, demand was still outstripping supply by mid-1941. Approached by the US Army's Ordnance Department, the International Harvester Company of Chicago, Illinois designed its own version. Utilising 5/16-in homogenous armoured plate (as opposed to 1/4-in face hardened steel), the resultant M5 was heavier than the M3 but compensated by featuring a strengthened chassis and hull, tougher 'banjo' axles and more powerful International Harvester RED-450B straight-six OHV engine. Credited with developing some 143bhp and 348lbft of torque, the latter was allied to four-speed manual transmission. Visually distinguished by its flat-section front wings and rounded rear corners, the M5 is deemed by many to be the ultimate Half-Track. Over half of the 4,625 IHC Half-Track M5 Personnel Carriers made came to Britain to be distributed under the Lend-Lease programme.Delivered on April 27th 1943, this particular example - serial number M5-2696 - is believed to have been used by Polish forces during the Allied liberation of Europe and thus may even have participated in the capture of the Kriegsmarine naval base at Wilhelmshaven. Known to have been in Germany following the cessation of hostilities, it was thoroughly overhauled by the Mercedes-Benz Works before being reallocated to the French Army. Stationed in French Guyana, South America for decades, the Half-Track returned to France during the 1980s where it was acquired as surplus by the Belgian collector Mr Louis Amerijckx. Then a Supreme Court Judge and chateau owner, Mr Amerijckx took some persuading but eventually sold the M5 Personnel Carrier to Dutch enthusiast Ivo Rigter in 1987. Determined to return the IHC machine to factory specification and condition, Mr Rigter scoured Europe and the United States in search of correct parts. Some twenty-seven years and 2,500 restoration hours later, the Half-Track was finally completed to his satisfaction.Despite their Mercedes-Benz overhaul plaques, the pre-refurbishment engine and gearbox were found to be too heavily water damaged to reuse. Another RED-450B straight-six OHV engine was duly found (and turned out to have been overhauled by Bugatti during the early 1960s), while Mr Stel from Radio Kootwijk provided a replacement gearbox. The rear tracks were sourced from Portugal and any truly obscure components made from scratch by Mr Rigter and his team. A hobby that turned into a business, by the time M5-2696 was completed Mr Rigter had founded the BAIV BV International Trading Company (BAIV standing for British and American Invasion Vehicles). The quality of the work which has gone into rejuvenating the Half-Track has to be seen to be appreciated but an idea can be gleaned by viewing the following YouTube link: www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLVZjReelx9dNWmoaewpMIZk7-XFGI-kSK Sporting the markings of the Polish 10th Regiment Dragonders, the M5 Personnel Carrier also has the name 'Krystyna' emblazoned on its doors as a tribute to Christine Granville (nee Maria Krystyna Janina Skarbek) a remarkable Polish lady who served as a Section D and SOE agent during WW2 and who may or may not have inspired the character of Vesper Lynd in Ian Fleming's James Bond novel 'Casino Royale'!Driven less than 1,000 miles since the completion of its painstaking restoration, the use of modern materials means that its rear tracks appear all but unworn. Participating in the Dog Green Camp Omaha Beach 2014 meeting, the IHC machine has also been used by the vendor for taking friends to the pub! Potentially road legal once UK registered, it would make a hell of a statement at the Goodwood Revival! Only coming to market because the vendor wishes to reduce the size of his military vehicle collection, this fabulous Half-Track is offered for sale at somewhat less than its restoration would cost to repeat today.

1955 Guy Otter Flat Lorry- Formerly the property of the Wednesbury Tube Co- Treated to an extensive 'chassis up' restoration in the 1990s and recently repainted to a high standard to refresh its cosmetics- 3800cc diesel engine, 5-speed manual gearbox, 2-speed Eaton back axleWorks Manager at Sunbeam until 30th May 1914 when he resigned to found Guy Motors Ltd, Sydney S. Guy was a highly driven individual who left a lasting impression on the British Motor Industry. Within four months his fledgling concern not only had its own factory at Fallings Park, Wolverhampton but was also producing an innovative 30cwt lorry. Built using a much lighter form of pressed steel frame (where rivals employed far heavier rolled steel channel ones), the latter became renowned for its ability to cross rough terrain. Diversifying into the manufacture of aero engines and even depth charges during WW1, Guy Motors Ltd dabbled with motorcar production during the 1920s before concentrating on commercial vehicles. The firm's famous Red Indian mascot appeared in 1934 (inspired by its 'Feathers in our Cap' advertising slogan) and that same decade witnessed the launch of the forward-control Otter. Reintroduced after WW2, the Otter could be had with a choice of petrol or diesel engines and from 1952 featured an all-steel cab.Formerly the property of the Wednesbury Tube Company, this particular example is a long wheelbase, alloy-bodied, drop side flat lorry. Powered by a 3.8 litre Gardner 4LK diesel engine allied to a David Brown gearbox and driving the rear wheels via an Eaton two-speed back axle, it was treated to an extensive 'chassis up' restoration during the 1990s. Recently re-painted to a high standard, the Otter sports a Red chassis, Burgundy cab / body and Black wheels. Described by the vendor as being in 'very good' (interior trim) or 'excellent' (bodywork, engine, transmission, paintwork, electrical equipment) condition, this handsome Guy lorry would make an ideal promotional vehicle or period car transporter.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.

1969 Ford Mustang Bud Moore Trans-Am Tribute Car- Built in the USA as a tribute to the legendary Bud Moore race cars and authentically detailed- LHD, tuned 351ci V8 engine, 4-speed Top Loader manual gearbox, 3.77 Positraction rear end- Period bucket seats, uprated suspension / brakes, open side pipes, currently set-up for American circuit usageAwarded five Purple Hearts and two Bronze Stars during World War Two, Bud Moore showed the same courage and conviction in his civilian endeavours. A talented engineer with a celebrated eye for detail, he was already something of a NASCAR legend when Ford asked him to prepare two Mustangs for Parnelli Jones and George Follmer to drive in the 1969 SCCA Trans-Am Championship. Based around bodyshells that had been specially lightened and strengthened by Kar Kraft of Brighton, Michigan, the SportsRoof Mustangs that Moore created proved faster but more fragile than Roger Penske's hitherto unstoppable Chevrolet Camaros. Undeterred, the Blue Oval badged racers he developed for 1970 won six out of eleven rounds that year and with them the Championship title. Built in the USA as a tribute to Bud Moore's fabled 1969/70 Trans-Am cars, this beautifully detailed Ford Mustang racer is described by the vendor as being in 'excellent' order with regard to its tuned 351ci V8 engine, four-speed Top Loader manual transmission, electrical equipment, bodywork, paintwork and interior trim. Set-up for American circuit usage, it further benefits from a fuel cell, 3.77 Positraction rear, period race seats / belts, heavy-duty suspension and uprated brakes. Sounding decidedly purposeful through open side pipes, this stunning Mustang would doubtless be great fun on competitive Tour events.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.

1931 Morris Family Eight Saloon- Part of the Old Hall collection since December 2011- Supplied new via the main London Morris distributor Stewart & Arden Ltd- One of just twenty-three known survivors and pleasingly retains its original 847cc OHC engineIntroduced in August 1931, the Family Eight was the last model to utilise Morris's sophisticated, WW1 aero-engine inspired 847cc overhead camshaft engine. Based on a stretched wheelbase version of its Minor sibling's chassis (up from 6ft 6in to 7ft 7in), the newcomer also boasted a rear-mounted fuel tank, safety glass and hydraulic brakes. Faced with a marginal per unit profit margin and instances of oil leaking down the drive shaft from the camshaft bevel into the dynamo (a non-issue these days thanks to modern `O' rings), Morris dropped the Family Eight Saloon and Eight Sports Coupe after a single season during which they had accounted for just 4,488 sales. According to a letter on file from the Morris Register dated 17th November 1988 to then owner J. Thompson Esq of Huddersfield, `MU 3842' was one of only twenty-three Family Eight Saloons known to have survived. The same missive states: `The registration number series "MU" were specifically allocated by Middlesex to the main London Morris distributors, Stewart & Arden Ltd'. Still bearing a supplier's plaque for South London Motors Ltd, an accompanying continuation logbook suggests that the four-seater belonged to George Mileham Esq. of Mablethorpe, Lincs by 1935 and Ivan Pickering Esq. of Melton Mowbray, Leics some thirty-three years later. Subsequently owned by R.C. Schofield Esq. of Aldwark and S.E. Schofield Esq. of Thirsk, the Morris has formed part of the Old Hall collection since December 2011. Pleasingly powered by its factory-fitted OHC powerplant, the Family Eight also appears to retain much of its original Green leather upholstery. Starting readily during our recent photography session (October 2017), `MU 3842' benefits from a new fuel pump and fresh MOT certificate. Showing an unwarranted 38,250 miles to its odometer, this delightful Family Eight comes with a period Operation Manual and sundry paperwork.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.

1932 Rolls-Royce 20/25 Park Ward Saloon- Part of the Old Hall collection since October 2005 and known as Lady Mary - Supplied new to Mrs D.K. Bland of Debden Manor, Saffron Walden, Essex and fitted with Park Ward Four-Light Saloon coachwork - Previous maintenance by West Hoathly Garage, David Haines, Alpine Eagle and Ristes and MOT'd till October 2018 Launched in 1929, the Rolls-Royce 20/25 was powered by a 3669cc OHV straight-six engine allied to four-speed manual transmission. Usefully faster than its 20hp predecessor, the model remained in production until 1936 by which time some 3,827 had been sold. Capable of supporting a wide variety of coachwork, the 20/25hp's substantial ladder frame chassis was equipped with all-round semi-elliptic leaf-sprung suspension, four-wheel drum brakes and a mechanical servo. According to its accompanying copy RREC build records, this particular example - chassis GBT25 - was supplied new to Mrs D.K. Bland of Debden Manor, Saffron Walden, Essex on April 1st 1932. Allowed £125 for her 1925 Austin open car, she paid a further £1,450 for the Park Ward bodied Four-Light Saloon and kept it for fifteen years. Belonging to Bernard Patrick Cromie Esq (who had been awarded a Military Cross whilst serving with the Royal Field Artillery during WW1) and most likely others thereafter, the Rolls-Royce passed to its previous keeper, John Flannary Esq., on August 9th 1986. Entrusted to marque specialists West Hoathly Garage, David Haines & Sons Ltd and Alpine Eagle during Mr Flannary's tenure, the 20/25 was repainted in the 1990s as well as having attention paid to its Brown leather upholstery, clutch, carpets, brightwork and wheels etc. Rechristened `Lady Mary' upon joining the Old Hall collection during October 2005, there was a suggestion at the time from Alpine Eagle that `EV 5476' had had its `engine overhauled fairly recently' but no corresponding invoice. Treated to a front axle refurbishment and some steering and brake work by Ristes Motor Company Ltd in February 2007 at a cost of £8,513.75, the Rolls-Royce has predominantly been maintained in-house over the past decade. Starting readily during our recent photography session (October 2017) and appearing to be in `good overall' order, Lady Mary is offered for sale with history file and MOT certificate valid until October 2018.PLEASE NOTE: This lot started readily and ran well when we photographed it last month. However, the cap at the back of the magneto has gone missing and as such we have not had it running in the saleroom.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl. VAT

1955 Bentley R-Type Saloon- Part of the Old Hall collection since July 2006- Previously supplied by renowned Rolls-Royce and Bentley specialists Frank Dale & Stepsons- Self-evidently the subject of much past restoration work, four-speed automatic transmission, MOT'd till Oct 2018An obvious evolution of its MKVI predecessor, the Bentley R-Type was introduced at the 1952 Earls Court Motor Show. Subtly reworked from the previous model by in-house stylist John Blatchley, it boasted a notably larger boot and reprofiled rear wings. Switching from riveted to welded frame construction at chassis B349TO, the newcomer featured independent coil-and-wishbone front suspension, a leaf-sprung 'live' rear axle and servo-assisted four-wheel drum brakes (hydraulic front / rod rear). Powered by a 'big bore' 4566cc straight-six inlet-over-exhaust engine allied to either four-speed manual or automatic transmission, the R-type was a surprisingly strong performer, able to reach more than 100mph. Praised by the contemporary motoring press for its high-speed handling and well-appointed interior, the model remained in production until 1955 by which time some 2,017 Standard Steel Saloons are thought to have been made.First registered by Huntingdonshire County Council (or so its distinctive 'OEW 100' number plate would imply), this particular example has formed part of the Old Hall collection since July 2006. Previously supplied by renowned Rolls-Royce and Bentley specialist Frank Dale & Stepsons, the R-Type has self-evidently benefited from much past restoration work. Finished in Maroon with Beige leather upholstery, its odometer shows an unwarranted 42,700 miles. Fitted with a centre spotlight, modern indicators and four-speed automatic transmission, the Bentley presents nicely and started readily during our recent photography session (October 2017). Offered for sale with V5C Registration Document, large and small tools and MOT certificate valid until October 2018.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl. VAT

1979 Ford Capri 3.0 S- Said to be 'very original' and matching numbers - Recently serviced, Ziebarted from new and 69,580 recorded miles- Offered with Ford main dealer history and previous MOT certificatesPopular in period and immortalised by the popular TV series `The Professionals', Ford of Europe's answer to the American Mustang is an increasingly sought-after classic - especially in 2.8 or 3.0-litre guise. The apparently very original matching numbers example offered has only ever had two owners and the indicated mileage of 69,580 is understood to be genuine. `GFE 552T' has benefited from being Ziebarted from new, retains its original panels and paintwork and shows no evidence of corrosion or restoration inside or out.

1954 Mercedes-Benz 300 B 'Adenauer' Cabriolet- Very rare right-hand drive example and current ownership since 1971- First registered to Mercedes-Benz UK and retained by them until 1965- Substantially complete but in need of restorationWith global interest in classic cars showing little sign of abating, one might imagine all the gems that were secreted away in barns and garages over the years had been unearthed and accounted for. Happily, that's not the case, as confirmed by this sale's pair of Mercedes-Benz 300s which have remained hidden in the West Riding of Yorkshire for the past 20 years. These exciting finds were among the most expensive cars on the planet in period. However, it is this four-door Cabriolet that is of especial interest, as it is thought to be one of just seven righthand drive examples and therefore exceedingly rare as well as very desirable.We are informed that it vacated the Mercedes factory in Stuttgart on November 19, 1953. Originally finished in `Middle' Red, it was first registered to Mercedes-Benz UK and retained by them until 1965. It was then the property of two private owners before being acquired by the vendor in 1971. These days it sports Deep Blue bodywork teamed with a sumptuous Grey leather interior. Though clearly in need of restoration, it is in sound condition and substantially complete. It presently displays a credible total mileage of 76,296 and is now being made available complete with buff log book, original service book, sales parts list, instruction manual, and some photos of it in its pomp. A truly unique opportunity for Mercedes-Benz collectors everywhere.The 300, aka W186, Mercedes was manufactured from 1951 to 1957 and offered in four-door Salon, Phaeton, Cabriolet and Limousine guise, all powered by basically the same 2996cc SOHC straight-six engine. The B version of the car was introduced in March 1954 and benefited from vacuum-assisted power brakes and an increase in power to 123bhp. The `Adenauer' sobriquet was a nod to Germany's Chancellor of the period, who owned several W186 models.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl. VAT

1971 Jaguar E-Type 4.2 Roadster- 45,500 recorded miles and just 1,700 miles covered since an engine overhaul by VSE of Powys, Wales in 2007- Subject to a mechanical overhaul by marque specialists Wat Jag in 2013 at the cost of £12,572.45- Fitted with five-speed gearbox conversion and stainless steel exhaust system- Offered complete with a large collection of invoices dating back to 1973 and old MOT certificatesThis eye-catching Series 2 E-Type features glossy Red bodywork matched to a Black hood and contrasting Cream leather interior. We understand its first owner was Mr Dennis Meighan of London, who retained the Jaguar until it was purchased by the vendor in 2006. A spell in storage apparently accounts for the low recorded mileage of 45,500, just 1,700 of which have been accrued since an engine overhaul by VSE of Powys, Wales in 2007. In 2013 £12,572.45 was invested with marque specialists Wat Jag of Great Longstone, Derbyshire, which funded: a rear axle overhaul; the installation of four pot brake calipers and vented discs, and Gaz dampers; and tuning of the triple SU carburettors. Welcome upgrades to the original specification include a five-speed gearbox conversion and Series 1-style stainless steel exhaust system. The vendor presently classes the E-Type's 4.2- litre straight-six engine as `excellent', the manual gearbox and interior trim as `very good' and the bodywork and paintwork as `good', and confirms the Jaguar `runs and drives well'. He is now offering `DLM 210J' complete with a large collection of invoices dating back to 1973, a reproduction handbook and workshop manual, and a number of old MOT certificates, plus an advisory-free one valid into April of next year.At launch the new Jaguar was the fastest production car of its time - its 3.8-litre engine allowing a 0-60mph acceleration time of around seven seconds and a top speed of c.150mph. Despite this, the engine size was increased from 3.8 to 4.2-litres in October 1964 and, with the change, came a sweeter all-synchromesh gearbox, better brakes and more comfortable seats. The Series 2 models introduced in 1969 are distinguished by their lack of headlamp covers, enlarged front air intake, repositioned front indicators and tail lights, wrap-around rear bumper, twin-electric fans, and refashioned facia and seats.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.

2013 Land Rover Defender 90 LXV 65th Anniversary- 1 of 65 limited edition examples, 1 owner & 3,500 miles from new - Offered with original order letter, sales invoice, key ring, handbooks and personal letter from the CEO of Land Rover- Described as `excellent' with regards to its bodywork, paintwork, interior trim, engine and transmissionThere were a number of limited editions of the venerable Defender during its lifetime, among the most desirable of which were the examples built in 2013 in celebration of Land Rover's 65 birthday. Christened LXV (65 in Roman numerals), the edition was limited to 65 vehicles, making it rare from the outset. Each was based on the two-door Defender Hard Top model and powered by the company's proven 120bhp 2.2-litre diesel driving through a six-speed manual gearbox. Special exterior treatment that defined the LXV included Santorini Black paintwork teamed with contrasting Corris Grey roof grille and headlight surrounds, and 16-inch Sawtooth alloy wheels. The interior boasted leather trimmed seats with LXV-embossed headrests and unique orange stitching for the seats, steering wheel and centre storage compartment. A union flag decal and LXV logo on the rear completed the unique LXV package.The example now being sold goes a stage further and even features an LXV registration. `S5 LXV' was purchased new by the vendor, a Land Rover enthusiast, so is a one owner vehicle that has so far amassed a mere 3,500 miles. Always garaged, it is presently considered by him to have `excellent' bodywork, paintwork, interior trim, engine and transmission. He is now making it available for sale complete with the original order letter, sales invoice, key ring, handbooks, all related invoices and personal letter from the CEO of Land Rover. A serious consideration for Land Rover collectors everywhere.The ubiquitous and much-loved Defender was produced from 1990 to 2016. It was a direct descendant of the original Land Rover launched in 1948 and, though it retained its ancestor's rough, tough go anywhere qualities to the end, it also became a cult vehicle for a new breed of enthusiast who demanded a level of King's Road chic and creature comforts never previously envisaged. Production may have ceased but demand continues unabated.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl. VAT

1972 Jaguar E-Type V12 Roadster- Current family ownership since 1979, c.30,000 miles only from new- Original hood, body attended to and bare metal respray in 2015- Manual transmission, current MoT to October 2018The last E-Type Jaguar rolled off the production line in 1975, yet the model still has a unique ability to excite enthusiasts of all generations, its Malcolm Sayer-penned lines thought by many to be among the most striking ever to adorn a motorcar. It made its debut at the 1961 Geneva Salon and was the fastest production car of its time - its 3.8-litre straight-six engine allowing a 0-60mph acceleration time of a whisker over seven seconds and a top speed of circa 150mph.From birth, the car was available either as a Fixed Head Coupe or two-seat Roadster. The engine size was increased from 3.8 to 4.2-litres in October 1964. With the change came a sweeter all-synchromesh gearbox, better brakes and more comfortable seats. For 1966, a 2+2 version of the Coupe was added to the range. It was 9in longer and featured a more vertical windscreen. The Series 3 cars were introduced in 1971, virtually all of which were fitted with Jaguar's new 5.3-litre V12 engine. The original wheelbase was discontinued and the revised car offered only as Roadster or 2+2 Coupe. Production continued until the model was superseded by the XJS in 1975, by which time some 15,000 V12-engined cars had been produced.The manual transmission Roadster on offer is a very original March 1972 example that has been in the current family ownership since 1979. Its Primrose Yellow bodywork is teamed with a Black leather interior and original Black hood, the car riding on Chrome wire wheels. The vendor advises the recorded mileage of just c.29,800 is correct from new. It was treated to a bare metal respray as recently as 2015 and is now considered to have 'very good' bodywork, paintwork, interior trim, V12 engine and transmission. It comes with a number of old MOT certificates and one valid into October 2018.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl. VAT

1970 Jaguar E-Type Series III 4.2 2+2 - Chassis Number One and Body Number One- The first left-hand drive Series III 2+2-seater made and the only example fitted with a 4.2-litre XK engine- Referred to by Jaguar Enthusiast magazine as 'A Ghost of an E-Type' and 'the one missing link' (August 2017 issue)- Offered from the collection of music producer Pete Waterman and in his care since the late 1980s.Although conceived to power a new generation of saloons (starting with the MK VII), Jaguar's first 'clean sheet' engine design debuted aboard the XK120 Roadster. Sir William Lyons' reasoning being that it was less risky to prove / develop the straight-six DOHC XK unit in a low volume sportscar than a high volume 'tin top'. The same thought process applied to the Coventry manufacturer's second 'clean sheet' powerplant. Hence, its much vaunted 5.3 litre SOHC V12 was 'debugged' in the Series 3 E-Type before appearing in the XJ12 Saloon.Reconfiguring the E-Type to house the 60-degree V12 was no easy feat. As well as a new bulkhead and front subframe, the Series 3 gained revised steering, brake and suspension assemblies plus a host of bodywork and interior changes. With the V12 representing a relative leap into the unknown and the XK unit having a loyal following courtesy of its five Le Mans 24-hours victories, Jaguar engineered the Series 3 to accept both powerplants.Early brochures thus mentioned 'A new Jaguar Engine - the 5.3 litre V12 to supplement the 4.2 litre six cylinder XK engine' and even featured pictures of the latter but in reality derivatives equipped with the smaller powerplant were never made available to the general public. Marque authorities have suggested that a mere six or seven cars were factory-fitted with XK DOHC 4.2 litre engines during the development and production of the Series 3 (though, some of those were heavily modified Series 2/3 hybrids). As such, the Series 3 4.2 litre is rarer than any other E-Type variant including the fabled 'Lightweight'.Presumed lost for many years and so referred to as 'A Ghost of an E-Type' and 'the one missing link' by Jaguar Enthusiast magazine (August 2017 issue), this particular example is wrongly listed on various websites as chassis number 1S70001 or 1W700001. In fact, the number clearly stamped into the 2+2-seater's original chassis plate reads '1W70001', while its body and engine numbers are recorded as '4W50001' and '7R39503-9' respectively.Although Jaguar Heritage quote the first left-hand drive Series 3 2+2-seater as being chassis number 1S70001 with body number 4S50001, '1W70001' would most likely have been identified as such many moons ago had it not formed part of music producer Pete Waterman's private collection since the late 1980s. A long-term Jaguar enthusiast whose stable has included C- and D-Types as well as other significant E-Types, Mr Waterman acquired the unique Series 3 via marque specialist Lynx.Published in the December 1980 issue of Jaguar Driver magazine, a letter from the 2+2-seater's then owner James Johnson of Brooklyn, New York outlines its early history:'The car is in all original concours condition save the new paint job, carpeting and exhaust system I have had to restore. I have won second and third prizes in Empire Division Jaguar Club Concours which I have entered. The only work needed on the car is to have the engine paintwork detailed. After purchasing the car I became interested in its history and wanted to confirm my suspicions that it was extremely rare. I wrote to Mr Bob Lewis at Jaguar Service, Radford who responded to me through Cindt Greico at Jaguar Rover Triumph in Leonia, New Jersey. It seems that this response had crossed the desk of Mr Graham W Gardener, Manager - Engineering Liaison of JRT in Leonia and he wrote to me personally. To begin with Mr Lewis confirmed for me that the car is what I thought it to be. Mr Gardener tells me that this is the Series 3 E-Type 6-cylinder imported by JRT Leonia into the US. He further informed me that this car was used to obtain certification for the 4.2 litre engine for the 1971 model year. In addition he says that the York air conditioning compressor installed in my car is unique as Delco-Air compressors were normally used. In my quest for information about the car I phoned Mr Gardener. He stated that at approximately 10,000 miles he sold the car to a used car dealership in Queens, New York City. From there a man bought the car, ran it an additional 17,000 miles and died, willing the car to his wife. His wife being completely un-automobile orientated, wrapped the car in plastic and stored it in her garage for five years. She had met a gentleman in the interim and when he proposed and asked her to move out of the state with him she went about selling the car to me. Unfortunately, she wrapped it in plastic so the paint discoloured, mottled and peeled off with the plastic when she unwrapped it'.Prior to being sold to the used car dealership in Queens, New York, chassis 1W70001 is rumoured to have been driven by a female member of the Whitehead family. Graham W. Whitehead was President of Jaguar Cars North America for several decades and his involvement might well explain why the E-Type was issued with the distinctive New Jersey registration plate 'JAG UR'. Acquired from James Johnson by marque enthusiast (and former owner of the Works D-Type 'OKV 2') Godfrey Miller, the Series 3 is understood to have retained its original tyres at the time! Mr Miller still has fond memories of the car and only reluctantly sold it to Guy Black of Lynx. A sticker affixed to the 2+2-seater's windscreen suggests that it was enjoyed on The Garden State's roads until at least 1986 and although not warranted its present odometer reading of 53,800 miles is highly credible...PLEASE NOTE: The Jaguar Heritage Trust Production Record Trace Certificate for this lot states that it was initially sent to the Jaguar Cars Ltd Experimental Department. The manufacturer's Car Record Book further confirms that the E-Type was originally finished in Warwick Grey with Red interior trim and quotes its chassis, engine and body numbers as: '1W 70001 BW', '7R39503-9' and '4W 50001' respectively. The chassis plate currently fitted to the car appears to be a factory installed item but lists the chassis number as '1W 70001'. Furthermore, the 2+2-seater is equipped with four-speed manual rather than Borg Warner (hence BW) automatic transmission. We queried this anomaly with the Jaguar Heritage Trust and they replied as follows: 'It is entirely possible that during its time as an experimental vehicle a variety of gearboxes were fitted'. They also commented: 'Jaguar did build chassis 1S 70001, but not with the body number you suggest. We would describe chassis 1W 70001 BW as the first and only LHD Series 3 with a 4.2 litre six-cylinder engine'. So there you have it, this historic E-Type is 1 of 1.

1955 Jaguar XK140 SE Fixed Head Coupe- A Special Equipment model supplied new to the USA but later resident in Australia- Extensively restored / upgraded in 2010 including conversion to right-hand drive, power assisted steering, four-wheel disc brakes- Further benefiting from five-speed manual transmission, wider wheels / radial tyres and air-conditioning etcLaunched at the 1954 Motor Show, the XK140 boasted the same bewitching styling as its forebear but allied it to a host of mechanical improvements. Chief among these was the adoption of rack and pinion steering. Though, the fitment of telescopic shock absorbers (in place of the XK120's antiquated lever arm dampers) also had a noticeably beneficial effect on handling / roadholding. With its engine and bulkhead repositioned three inches further forward, the new model enjoyed a notably roomier cabin (the fixed and drophead coupe variants gaining occasional rear seats as a result). Available in 'standard', 'special equipment' or 'special equipment plus C-type cylinder head' guises, power and torque outputs ranged from a quoted 190bhp/210lbft to 210bhp/213lbft. Distinguished by its one-piece bumpers and simpler, more imposing radiator grille, the XK140 was among the fastest cars of its generation. Reputedly capable of over 130mph, it focused public consciousness on Jaguar's continued success at Le Mans (the Coventry marque winning the endurance classic in 1951, 1953, 1955, 1956 and 1957).Supplied new to America as a Special Equipment model, chassis S814633DN subsequently relocated to Australia where, in 2010, it was extensively refurbished and upgraded. As well as being converted to right-hand drive, the 2+2-seater was fitted with an uprated cooling system, electric boot release, wider wheels shod with radial tyres, four-wheel disc brakes, five-speed manual transmission, power assisted steering and air-conditioning. Starting readily upon inspection, its twin SU carburettor-fed 3.4 litre DOHC XK engine allies a MKVII block to a MKI cylinder head. Feeling discernibly modern on a recent brief test drive with an impressive turn of speed, this handsome XK140 SE Fixed Head Coupe has completed several long distance tours in the vendor's hands reportedly 'proving a reliable and enjoyable companion on each one'. Offered for sale with UK V5C Registration Document and Heritage Certificate.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl. VAT

c.1949 Ford F-1 V8 Woodie Estate- Reputedly supplied new to the US Consulate in Ireland for use by the Consul General's bodyguards (and one of just three such 'Woodies' made)- Treated to an extensive bodywork / woodwork restoration by S.T. Foreman of Bosham, West Sussex during the 1990s- Formerly registered with the DVLA as 'MSU 202' prior to entering the current Irish ownershipIntroduced in late 1947, the F-Series was Ford's first post-WW2 truck design. Also known as the Bonus-Built, the newcomer boasted a one-piece windscreen, wider cab and integrated headlamps. The majority of F-Series were supplied in Pickup, Panel Van, Cab over Engine or School Bus guises (though, Ford also sold bare chassis for speciality bodies to be built upon). Power was provided by a range of 'Flathead' straight-six and V8 engines. Most variants utilised three-speed manual transmissions but some of the heavier duty ones had five-speed gearboxes. Marmon-Herrington All Wheel Drive remained an option on all F-Series until 1959. Stylistically updated with a single-bar grille in 1951, the first-generation Bonus-Built was superseded by the F100 for the 1953 model-year. The F-Series Pickup proved to be the USA's best-selling vehicle for 23 years and its best-selling truck for 31.Reputedly one of three such Ford F-1 light commercial chassis that were specially bodied in Cork for use by the US Ambassador to Ireland's bodyguard troupe, this unusual Woodie Estate later migrated to Llangendeirne, West Wales. Acquired by hoteliers Mr & Mrs Knowles of Bramshaw, Lyndhurst in February 1996, the Ford ferried numerous of their guests around over the next seventeen years. Entrusted to coachbuilders, S.T. Foreman Woodwork Restorations of Bosham, West Sussex, the F-1 emerged from a full bodywork refurbishment during 2007. Powered by a 239ci (3.9 litre) V8 engine allied to three-speed manual transmission, assorted paperwork suggests that Mr Knowles sourced any necessary mechanical parts from marque specialist Joblot Automotive Inc of New York. Sparingly used since entering the current Irish ownership four years ago, the Ford remains presentable and is said to 'drive very well'. Offered for sale with various restoration photos and sundry paperwork (including an expired V5 Registration Document for the number plate 'MSU 202').PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.

1970 Jaguar E-Type 4.2 2+2- In the current ownership since 1974 (2nd owner) and registering less than 20,000 miles- Sable with Beige leather, manual transmission UK RHD example- Restored in 1987 by Southern Classics and now requiring attention to cosmeticsOwned by the vendor since 1974, XTN 372H has had just two private owners from new. A copy old logbook shows it was first registered to a company of the original owner who then transferred it into his own name. The dealer from whom the car was purchased also registered the car totalling four entries but just one private previous keeper. The mileage in 1974 was 7,302 and whilst the owner cannot warrant the mileage was correct when purchased, he can confirm he has covered just c.11,600 miles, the odometer currently reading just c.18,900 miles. Stored from 1978, in 1986 the bodywork and paint were restored by Southern Classics and in 1987 the engine and gearbox overhauled by Peter Dodd (at c.17,500 miles). A new bonnet was also fitted around this time. In 1990 the seats were restored by Leather Renovations. Following a further period of storage, the car was recommissioned by Thomas Barclay Ltd at a cost of some £8,000 in 2015-16. Some attention to its microblistered paintwork is needed, but this low-ownership, low-mileage E-Type is well worth the effort.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.

1926 Sunbeam 20.9 Coachbuilt Saloon- Timewarp car that belonged to its first owner, Malcolm Rollo Esq., from 1926 - 1964 and has had just four keepers since- Engine overhauled during the 1990s with assistance from marque specialist Bill Barrott and wings refurbished that same decade- Interior little changed since the car left the factory- Said to 'run lovely on the road with lively performance combined with a decent four wheel braking system'The 1920s witnessed Sunbeam win the French and Spanish Grand Prixs, finish second at Le Mans, set numerous Land Speed Records and cause Henry Royce consternation regarding the quality and refinement of its products. Introduced in 1926, the 20.9hp was powered by a 2916cc OHV straight-six engine allied to four-speed manual transmission. Reputedly capable of over 70mph (coachwork permitting), the newcomer shared numerous drivetrain components with its glamorous 3-Litre Super Sports sibling. Available in Tourer, Fixed Head Coupe, Folding Head Coupe, Coachbuilt Saloon, Weymann Saloon and Rally Weymann Saloon guises, some 2,560 20.9hp cars are thought to have been made before the model was revised for 1931. Though, today survivors are comparatively few and far between. Contemporary Sunbeam brochures reveal that the 20.9hp Coachbuilt Saloon was priced at a hefty £895 and could be ordered in `Claret, Dark Smoke Blue or Dark Blue' over Black and with `cloth or best quality English leather of suitable colour to match the paintwork'.According to its accompanying paperwork, this handsome 20.9hp Coachbuilt Saloon has had just five owners from new (the first of whom, Malcolm Rollo Esq. of Rochford House, Tenbury kept it until 1964). Treated to a degree of restoration work during the 1990s including an engine overhaul and refurbished wings, the Sunbeam is described by the vendor as being in `good' (paintwork, electrical equipment) or `very good' (engine, gearbox, bodywork, interior trim) condition. He goes on to say: `This car is a genuine timewarp. It runs lovely on the road with lively performance and a decent four-wheel braking system. The interior is virtually as it left the factory. Recent new tyres. We are only parting with her due to downsizing our collection. She comes with a history file including many letters, old MOTs, buff logbook, V5C Registration Document and a workshop manual'.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.

1954 Jaguar XK120 Fixed Head Coupe- Exported new to Venezuela and distributed to its first keeper by CAMAV of Caracas- Recently fitted with replacment steering box, brake calipers and alternator- Heritage certificate and an MOT valid to September 2018 although exemptThis extremely attractive matching numbers 1954 XK was exported new to Venezuela where it was distributed to its first keeper by CAMAV of Caracas. At the time it was finished inside and out in Suede Green. At some stage it crossed into North America as it was from Washington DC that it was repatriated in 2014. The vendor purchased it from a private collection, since when the steering box, brake calipers and alternator have all received attention. These days `663 UYU' sports Ivory bodywork teamed with a Tan-coloured leather interior. It is considered to have `excellent' 3.4-litre XK engine and manual transmission, `very good' bodywork and interior trim, and `good' paintwork. It comes complete with Heritage certificate and an MOT valid to September 17 next year. A potentially fine addition to any classic car collection.It is true to say that the phenomenal success of the XK120 was completely unexpected by Sir William Lyons and his team, whose post-war focus was the MKVII Saloon. However, as that car and its XK engine neared completion in 1948, it occurred to Lyons that a sports car powered by the stunning new DOHC unit would probably outperform almost anything else in production at the time. The extraordinary decision was therefore made to design and build an XK-powered two-seater in time for display at the Earls Court Motor Show of October 27 - an apparently impossible task in the time available. However, within a few days of the Bronze show car going on display, it was evident that a complete rethink was required - such was the euphoria with which the XK120 was greeted. In the end, production spanned five years and the car was produced in three guises - Roadster, Fixed Head Coupe and Drophead Coupe; the combined production volumes of which were 12,055.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.

1967 Jaguar MK II 3.8 Litre- Desirable 3.8 litre with manual overdrive gearbox- 77,000 miles and MOT'd into August 2018- Offered with a collection of old tax discs, invoices and MOT certificatesInextricably linked with the 'swinging '60s' and the first choice of the period's bank robbers as well as the police who chased them, the MKII was one of the cars to have. The optimum version was the 3.8 litre-engined model with overdrive manual gearbox, so the righthand drive matching numbers sale car ticks all the right boxes. It's understood (but not warranted) to have covered only 77,000 miles from new, and was treated to a respray in Golden Sand five years ago, and an engine overhaul in 2013.
