Registration No: FDH 133H Chassis No: 1102517765 MOT: ExemptVery original and rare in this 'survivor' conditionRare and desirable Cobalt Blue with White interiorJust c.39,000 from new and with the original 'F code' engineEnthusiast owned and maintained for regular use at classic VW eventsNew for 1968, the semi-automatic Beetle was available on 1300cc and 1500cc models. Think of it as 3 gears (plus reverse) but without a clutch. The semi-auto has many fans and is mimicked by modern cars today. The Beetle utilised a torque convertor in simple but clever set-up. VW brochures of the time described it: "Drive 1, you can drive around town all day, Drive 2 is for the open road. Once you’re cruising above 55mph, you can shift or stick into it. And save extra gas. Another good thing about our new automatic stick shift is that you also can use it as a manual transmission. You simply shift through all 3 forward gears (Low, Drive 1, Drive 2) using the stick without a clutch."An unmodified 'survivor' Beetle with extensive originality, it began life as a 'special order' from Willenhall Coachcraft Volkswagen by Mrs H. Meads of Aldridge, aunt of the next and long-time custodian, Derek Crowther of Ludlow. 'FDH' was ordered in Cobalt Blue with a White interior and delivered on 10th March 1970. Displaying just some 39k credible miles, this is a 'never been pulled apart' true survivor which has merely had its original paint maintained, replacement wings, a front valance, and new running boards. The body and panel gaps are exceptional and just goes to show the pampered life it’s had, and garaged most of its life too, certainly by the vendor. The vendor advises us "it does have some paint chips on the edge of the driver's door along with a few other very small marks on the car, but all in all it’s truly stunning and so very original, please don’t get this confused with a restored car, it does have some patination, but that certainly adds to the car. Finding these original unrestored cars is next to impossible". The White interior being testament to how clean this car is now and how it has been cared for over the years and its low mileage. All the interior is in excellent condition with no damage apparent. A real rarity to find in such a genuine condition, the interior is original and very fresh and rarer to find an example that has never had a radio fitted. 'FDH' still retains its original warranty sticker in the passenger side window.In the words of the vendor: "It’s a 1300 semi-auto that’s incredibly easy to drive but can easily be converted to manual if that’s what you want. I think the semi-auto cars will have a much different appeal in years to come due to the next generation driving all these new auto cars". 'FDH' will be driven to Buxton by its VW collector/enthusiast owner; only selling due to space being made for an earlier car. Offered with the original sales receipt on file along with other history. It comes with a box full of all its history from day one including its original purchase receipt, there’s lots of other bits about it such as newspaper clippings. 'FDH' has won a few trophies in the past and those come with it. Accompanied by a current V5C. For more information, please contact: Andrew Talbot andrew.talbot@handh.co.uk 01925 210035
Registration No: MHE 283M Chassis No: BA0604 MOT: ExemptCurrent ownership since 2010Imported to the UK in 2003Understood to have been extensively restored in the early 2000sFitted with 'Group 4' stylingRiding on a set of Gotti split-rim alloy wheelsUnderstood to have been built in Spain by FASA RenaultUnveiled at the 1962 Paris Salon, the Alpine A110 proved more than a match for many contemporary sportscars thanks to its remarkably low kerb weight, superb traction and excellent handling. A rear-engined, rear-wheel drive design, the newcomer featured rack and pinion steering, all-round independent suspension and four-wheel disc brakes. Styled by Giovanni Michelotti, its fibreglass bodywork was bonded to a rigid steel backbone chassis resulting in a notably strong structure. Able to make the most of its humble Renault drivetrain, even the initial 1-litre variant was reputedly capable of 120mph. Progressively evolved over the course of its fifteen-year production life, the A110 distinguished itself in international competition. Winner of the 1968 Coupe des Alpes and 1971 Monte Carlo Rally, the sleek Berlinette claimed the World Rally Championship two years later. Alpine licensed the A110 to companies in Mexico, Bulgaria and Spain.In current ownership since 2010, this Alpine 110 was imported to the UK in 2003. Understood to have been extensively restored in the early 2000s, it is fitted with 'Group 4' styling. Riding on a set of ‘Group 4’ kit-wide Gotti split-rim alloy wheels, it is understood to have been built in Spain by FASA Renault and is titled under the model year 1974.The specification includes 1,289cc OHV 4-cylinder engine with a single twin-choke Weber carburettor potentially offering 95bhp at 5,300rpm via a 4-speed manual transmission, 4-wheel independent suspension and 4-wheel ventilated disc brakes. There is a half-cage fitted and there is a rear spoiler included but not fitted. In 2010, the car was purchased by the vendor from the known family of the previous owner and first UK keeper since importation into the UK in 2003. Previously finished in Red, restoration work included a repaint and parts used were supplied by Mecaparts, Bourges, France, the Alpine Specialists, with photographs of the restoration on file.The Alpine is offered with a collection of invoices, including those from Mecaparts, including some 2003 photographs of when the car was Red, a collection of old MOTs, an original owner’s handbook, a parts catalogue and club information. There is also a current V5C Registration Document. For more information, please contact: James McWilliam james.mcwilliam@handh.co.uk 07943 584760

Muscular yet agile, sophisticated and powered by a magnificent engine, it makes the Bentley GT look frumpy and cumbersome. If you have a loose £105,000 knocking about, there’s nothing that comes close to matching the CL63 AMG’ (CAR magazine, 5th October 2006) Launched at the 2006 Paris Salon, the C216 generation of Mercedes-Benz’s long-running S-Class Coupe was styled by Gorden Wagener and Peter Pfeiffer. An extravagant 2+2-seater intended to do battle with the Aston Martin DB9 and Bentley Continental GT, the newcomer was powered by various V8 and V12 engines with the fastest variants benefiting from the attention of the Stuttgart manufacturer’s in-house tuning division, AMG. Deemed by many to be one of the greatest, naturally aspirated V8 engines ever made, the 6208cc unit fitted to the CL63 AMG was rated at 518bhp and 465lbft of torque. Allied to seven-speed automatic transmission, it enabled the super coupe to blast from 0-60mph in 4.5 seconds. The top speed was limited to 155mph (though, 200mph was reputedly possible with the relevant electronics bypassed).Featuring the fabulous 6208cc V8 engine, developing some 518bhp / 465lbft, the CL63 AMG was a true ‘super coupe’. Finished in Obsidian Black with Anthracite Nappa leather upholstery and Piano lacquer Designo Black trim inserts, this 2007 example features autonomous cruise control, Dynamics front seats, the premium sound system, and has covered 86,000 miles from new. It is being offered with owner’s manual and the service book plus the current V5c document. For more information, please contact: James McWilliam james.mcwilliam@handh.co.uk 07943 584760
Registration No: MM51 ZBD Chassis No: WDB1704652F250983 MOT: September 2024Only 75,600 miles from new with just three former keepersLargest engine variant SLK with the 3.2-litre V6 engineRare and desirable six-speed manual transmissionStriking colour combination of Lazulithe Blue metallic with a two-tone Blue interiorAt the start of the 1990s, after the introduction of their two-seat grand-tourer, the R129 SL, the launch of the Mazda MX-5 encouraged Mercedes-Benz set out to create a new compact roadster, slotted below the SL. By late 1991, under Bruno Sacco, the first design sketches were drawn, with scale models being built in the first half of 1992. Massively successful in its first year, worldwide sales hit 55,000, over double the entire nine-year production of 190 SLs and between 1996 and 2004, over 311,000 SLKs were sold. The roof design consists of a folding steel hardtop with both halves linked by a mechanism that is locked securely when the roof is closed. At the touch of a button on the centre console, a hydraulic system controls the fully automatic folding process in which the boot lid is also integrated.Manufactured new in 2001 and supplied new to the United Kingdom, ‘MM51 ZBD’ was first registered on the 17th of October that year. Finished from the factory in Lazulithe Blue metallic paintwork with complementary two-tone Galaxy Blue and Merlin Blue leather interior upholstery with Eucalyptus wood dashboard, steering wheel grips and interior finishes. An example of the largest engine variant SLK (bar the AMG) with the 3.2-litre V6 engine, it is allied to the rare and desirable six-speed manual transmission, the SLK was provided with the options of an electric adjustable driver's seat, Mercedes-Benz radio with CD, interior protection package, and heated screenwash system.Offered now having covered just 74,600 miles from new and has only three former keepers.

Registration No: LBW 888E Chassis No: GHN399414 MOT: February 2025Acquired by previous keeper, E.F. Williams Esq, in 1980 and cherished across the next four decadesTreated to much work by Brown & Gammons in the 1980s and an Oselli conversion during 2003'Stage 2' 1995cc engine, sports recliner seats, alloy bonnet, uprated front discs, honed suspesnion etcChrome bumper looks but with enhanced performance and handling capabilitiesIntroduced in 1962, the MGB Roadster enjoyed an eighteen-year production run. With nicely balanced handling and a good turn of speed, it merited the old MG marketing slogan 'Safety Fast'. Based around a monocoque chassis featuring independent coil-sprung front suspension and a leaf-sprung 'live' rear axle, its 1798cc 'B' series four-cylinder engine was allied to four-speed manual transmission. Capable of over 100mph (especially if specified with overdrive), the provision of disc/drum brakes and rack and pinion steering greatly aided control. However, the biggest visual change in the car’s history occurred when steel reinforced rubber bumpers replaced the chrome ones and the ride height was raised by one inch. By the time Roadster production ceased in October 1980, a total of 399,070 are said to have been produced. The accompanying history file for this appealing, chrome bumpered Roadster dates back to 5th June 1980 when its longest-term owner – E.F. Williams Esq – bought it from well-known MG B exponent Barry Sidery-Smith of Westbury Garage for £2,150. Retaining the two-seater across four decades, Mr Williams commissioned renowned marque specialist Brown & Gammons to restore the bodywork in 1986 before agreeing a series of upgrades with David Eales of Oselli some seventeen years later. As well as being fitted with an Oselli ‘Stage 2’ lead-free 1995cc engine, the Roadster had its gearbox and back axle overhauled. The brakes and suspension were uprated to cope with the extra power and torque (later measured at 119bhp/142lbft) and the fresh coat of Woodland Green paint offset by Black leather sports recliner seats. In all the work cost some £13,308.28. Thereafter the MG was treated to a new mohair hood in 2007 and a replacement starter motor, alternator and gearbox (with associated transmission tunnel modifications) in 2016. Still highly presentable, ‘LBW 888E’ sports a Nardi wood-rimmed steering wheel, alloy bonnet, silver-painted wire wheels and negative earth electrics. Starting readily upon inspection, ‘LBW 888E’ is a tribute to Mr Williams’ caring ownership and Oselli’s workmanship.

Registration No: Y302 TNC Chassis No: ZFFYT53C000124671 MOT: October 20241 of just 513 UK RHD cars fitted with the F1 transmissionCurrent ownership since 2016 and over £15,500 expenditure while with the vendorWarranted 42,400 miles from newFull original book pack including the stamped service bookBelt service completed less than 100 miles agoPLEASE NOTE: This lot's most recent major service was in November 2023, not 2022 as catalogued.PLEASE NOTE: The rear diffuser for this lot was damaged since the photography. Additional images of this have been added to the website.‘The 360 is a devastating road car. It does everything you’d hope a Ferrari would but with such polish, precision, and ease that you don’t have to think twice about unleashing all its performance. There is perhaps no other car yet made that combines so much raw emotion with so much technical finesse (EVO magazine, June 1999)’Introduced in 1999 as a replacement for the F355, the 360 was an entirely new design featuring an aluminium spaceframe chassis which was 40% stiffer and 28% lighter than the tubular steel arrangement of its predecessor. The revised bodywork resulted in downforce improving by a factor of four over the F355. Powered by a 3.6-litre V8 coupled to either a six-speed manual or F1 electrohydraulic manual transmission, the 360's lighter weight improved the 0-60 mph dash to just 4.2 seconds with a nominal top speed of over 180mph. In 2001, the spider version was introduced, the stiffness of the spaceframe being ideally suited to handle an open top. This was followed in 2003 by the ultimate incarnation - the 360 racing series inspired Challenge Stradale - featuring a number of weight saving and tuning modifications by the factory.1 of just 513 UK-supplied, right-hand drive examples fitted with the F1 transmission, ‘Y302 YNC’ was registered new to the first owner in July 2001 through the supplying dealership, Stratsone Ferrari of Wilmslow, Cheshire. Finished in Grigio Titanio (Grey) Metallic paintwork with the optional embellished ‘Scuderia Ferrari’ shields on the wings, the interior is trimmed in Maroon leather interior upholstery, with a Black leather dashboard top, and the weather protection is provided in the form of a Black fabric convertible hood, which has been renewed during the Ferraris life and worked perfectly during our photography session.In current ownership since 2016, the 360 was purchased from the previous eleven-year custodian, and since the purchase, the vendor has lavished over £15,500 worth of expenditure on the Ferrari, notably including new radiators in 2018, significant cosmetic improvements in 2019, and at the end of 2023 a major service and cambelt change with new idler pulleys, as well as the gearbox actuator being overhauled, with less than 100 miles covered since this major service and belt change. The comprehensive history file also documents significant expenditure before the vendor’s ownership, which was completed by Ferrari specialists.The history file further includes the original book pack in the Ferrari wallet including the stamped service book that contains eleven service stamps, several previous MOT certificates, a current no advisory MOT certificate until October 2024, numerous (aforementioned) invoices for expenditure and improvement, and a current V5C document. Also accompanying the car is the Ferrari leather-bound tool kit and a fitted car cover, and the 360 Spider is offered now with a warranted 42,400 miles from new. The Ferrari 360 is a thrilling supercar, with the Spider even more aurally exciting than the Modena coupe thanks to being able to drop the roof to listen to the glorious V8 behind you; this is a well-maintained example with modest mileage. It is now ready to be cherished and enjoyed on the road by a new owner. For more information, please contact: Paul Cheetham paul.cheetham@handh.co.uk 07538 667452

With nicely balanced handling and a good turn of speed, it merited the old MG marketing slogan 'Safety Fast'. Based around a monocoque chassis featuring independent coil-sprung front suspension and a leaf-sprung 'live' rear axle, its 1798cc 'B' series four-cylinder engine was allied to a four-speed manual transmission. Capable of over 100mph, the provision of front disc brakes and rack-and-pinion steering greatly aided control.Manufactured new in 1975, this MG B was supplied new to the United Kingdom being first registered on the 1st of August that year. Finished in Blue paintwork with Black cloth interior upholstery and is accompanied by full weather equipment comprising full tonneau, hood tonneau cover, and hood, all trimmed in Black, as well as a body colour hard-top, albeit needs repainting.

Registration No: A861 VUU Chassis No: WDB1070422A003521 MOT: April 2025Supplied new via Mercedes-Benz of Nicosia (Cyprus) and imported to the UK by its first owner two years laterEligible for a zero rated (free) road fund licenceEighteen main dealer and specialist service stampsResident in London for much of its life and kept garagedComes with hardtop, (barely used) soft-top and optional rear seats etcPLEASE NOTE: This lot now possess a MOT certificate valid until April 2025. The odometer has recently stopped functioning but shows some 106,000 miles and not 109,000 as catalogued.Nicknamed the 'Panzerwagen' by Mercedes-Benz's own development engineers, the R107 series was the result of an extremely thorough design process. In an attempt to avoid falling foul of threatened American safety legislation, Stuttgart produced an open car whose structural rigidity surpassed that of some contemporary saloons! Indeed, even now some fifty years after its introduction the R107 retains a reassuring air of solidity. Allied to this was sure-footed handling courtesy of all-round independent coil-sprung suspension, power-assisted steering and disc brakes. Always more of a grand tourer than an out and out sports car, the vast majority of R107s were fitted with automatic transmission. Launched in September 1974, the Eurocentric 280SL was less powerful but more fuel-efficient than its V8 brethren. Though with some 185bhp and 177lbft of torque on tap from its fuel-injected 2746cc DOHC straight-six engine, the model could still boast authoritative 120mph performance. A distinct rarity in that it has only ever been registered to two members of the same family (father and son), chassis WDB1070422A009521 was factory finished in the attractive combination of Blue-Green Metallic with Dark Blue upholstery and a Dark Brown soft-top. Nicely specified, the 280SL boasts a Behr air-conditioner, 15-inch alloy wheels, optional rear seats and electric windows / mirrors. Supplied new by Mercedes-Benz of Nicosia, Cyprus, they carried out the first of eighteen services recorded in the accompanying maintenance booklet. Imported to the UK during 1986, the 280SL has always been kept garaged to the benefit of its bodywork (the wheelarches etc are notably sound). Warranted to have covered a modest 109,000 miles (the equivalent of 2,725 per annum), ‘A861 VUU’ has recently been recommissioned following a period of dry storage and is expected to possess a fresh MOT certificate by the time of sale. Due to be driven to Buxton, this appealing and well preserved 280SL is offered for sale with V5C Registration Document, owner’s manual, service book and assorted MOTs dating back to 1988 at 30,591 miles.

Registration No: P140 LRV Chassis No: SCFAA1119TK100669 MOT: April 2025 Presented in Cheviot Red with contrasting parchment interior54,600 miles from new21 service stamps,12 of which are Chiltern Aston Centre LtdOffered with a large collection of additional invoices and previous MOT certificatesAlthough Victor Gauntlett had long mooted the idea, it took the arrival of Ford money and TWR Group know-how for a new generation, 'small' Aston Martin to become a reality. Introduced at the March 1993 Geneva Salon - albeit deliveries did not start until late the following year - the newcomer had been subjected to more testing and development work than any of the marque's previous models. Indeed, under the watchful eye of Engineering Director Rod Mansfield Project NPX (as the DB7 was labelled) got through some thirty prototypes. Based around a steel semi-monocoque chassis the production version was equipped with all-round independent suspension, four-wheel disc brakes and power assisted rack and pinion steering. Derived from a proven Jaguar unit, the DB7's 3239cc DOHC straight-six engine boasted four valves per cylinder, Zytec multi-point fuel injection and an Eaton supercharger. Credited with developing 335bhp and 360lbft, it was allied to five-speed manual transmission as standard and reputedly enabled the Aston Martin to sprint from 0-60mph in 5.8 seconds and reach 161mph. However, it was the way the Fixed-head Coupe looked, rather than its performance potential, which wowed the public. Styled by Ian Callum, the DB7 has long been regarded as a modern masterpiece. Priced at circa £80,000 the six-cylinder coupe remained current until 1999 by which time some 1,578 had been sold.Presented in Cheviot Red with contrasting parchment interior, this lovely example in previous ownership was subject to the headlining being re-upholstered, battery replaced and some other small areas fettled. There are a couple of small details that make ‘P140 LRV’ stand out somewhat. One of which, is an invoice by Just Astons Ltd in October 2020, it is stated ‘It is one of the cleanest DB7s I have seen’.This notion of a well looked after car is further supported by what can only be described as fastidious work by a previous owner who even made amendments and comments specific to the car throughout the entirety of the owner’s section; examples of which includes amendments to the starting procedure, diagrams of key fobs, correct locations of buttons relative to the car, additional information within various sections etc.Now showing 54,600 miles on the odometer, this DB7 is offered with an impressive history file. The ‘service’ section on the owner’s manual is full with 21 stamps; 12 of which are Chiltern Aston. There is a large collection of additional invoices for servicing and other works, a large collection of previous MOT certificates, the Aston Martin Quick Reference Guide, Alpine radio and Multichanger manual and the current V5C.

Available in Saloon and later Coupe guises - both of which employed four doors - the big Rover was the luxuriously-equipped with independent torsion-bar front suspension, a leaf-sprung 'live' rear axle and disc/drum brakes. The initial 3.0-litre OISE straight-six engine was a development of the one used by its P4 stablemate (the production runs of the two models over-lapped), and automatic transmission, overdrive on the manual, and Burman power steering were all optional, with overdrive becoming standard from May 1960.Finished in Burgundy with Stone and with a Light Grey leather interior, chassis 74000965C was first registered on the 10th of August 1964, to the first owner, Maurice Langridge of Brentwood, Essex, before passing into the ownership (not stamped on the RF60) of a Raymond Langridge, Sawbridgeworth, Hertfordshire, at an unknown date, but likely within the same family.Currently Southern Ireland registered the Rover's previous UK registration number was 'EWC 443B' which will hopefully be re-issued.

Registration No: F159 TLX Chassis No: WP0ZZZ92ZJS841537 MOT: October 2024Subject to mechanical overhaul, interior re-fresh and a respray in Gloss Black between 2020-2021Unusual specification including Red interior inserts, factory heated seats and sliding roofExtensive history fileStyled by American Tony Lapine, Porsche's front-engined, water-cooled, V8-powered 2+2 928 was launched at the 1977 Geneva Salon. Not only was it about as mechanically different to the ubiquitous 911 as it could possibly be, but represented the company's first foray into grand touring territory. Nevertheless, it received a rapturous reception from the press and was duly awarded the 1978 Car of the Year Award. Debuting in 1986 for the 1987 model year, the S4 variant featured an updated version of the 5.0-litre V8 producing some 316hp and a larger torque converter on automatic transmission examples along with numerous styling updates to give the car a sleeker appearance. Production of the S4 ended in 1991 along with the GT model to make way for the 5.4-litre GTS which would last until 1995.First registered on 1st September 1988, this lovely Porsche 928 S4 is presented in Gloss Black with a contrasting Red and Black leather interior. ‘F159 TLX’ has an unusual specification with the Red interior, but was also specified with factory heated seats, additional amplifier, back support and electrical sliding roof.In January 2021, the car was sold to a previous owner, who undertook the task of making it ‘perfect’. In late 2020, the car had received extensive works with Simon Ainsworth Engineering, including Gaz suspension, braided brake lines, replacement steering rack bushes, the intake manifold and cam covers re-finished and re-fitted, injector seals, the underside Waxoyled, replacement front discs and pads, the gearbox and diff oil replaced and further fettling. Air conditioning was retrofitted with Climate Components Ltd.In April 2021, the car was subject to replacement carpets (including door panel carpet), the centre console armrest was retrimmed, further interior fettling and then subject to a complete respray in Gloss Black with Alchemy Paint Ltd. The parts used were primarily purchased directly from Porsche, including door seals and window guides. The wheels were then refurbished with Spit & Polish Alloy Wheel Reburbishment Services and after the car was complete, it was sold to the previous owner. ‘F159 TLX’ was sold to the vendor in a deal for one of his many historic race cars in 2023 and it is now offered for sale due to lack of use, having been stored in a professional facility since.Included with the vehicle is a comprehensive history file. Within is the original Porsche book pack, which includes the Porsche 928 S4 Driver’s manual, pocket guide to Porsche ownership, Porsche Approved programme handbook, Porsche service book and the Guarantee and Maintenance booklet which contains 16 stamps; the most recent at 119,619 miles. Also included is a large collection of invoices dating back as far as 1995, a large collection of MOT certificates dating back to 1999, a spare key and the current V5C document which displays 11 former keepers.

Registration No: CJV 17 Chassis No: B342MD MOT: ExemptCurrent ownership since 1971Offered with chassis cars, records and a collection of invoicesOriginal tool kit, jack and registration numberFactory maintenance/service manual, old tax discs, a copy of the old-style logbookIntroduced in 1946, Bentley's MkVI was the first vehicle ever offered by the company with factory-designed coachwork, and the first to be assembled in Rolls-Royce's Crewe factory rather than the old Derby premises. Aimed at the emerging 'owner-driver' luxury car market, the newcomer was closely based on the 1939 MkV (of which only fifteen were produced). Built around a massive cruciform-braced chassis with independent front suspension and a leaf-sprung 'live' rear axle, it was fitted with a freshly developed 4257cc OISE (overhead inlet side exhaust valve) straight-six engine mated to a four-speed manual gearbox. Capable of over 100mph when clad in the factory's understated 'standard steel saloon' coachwork, the MkVI quickly developed a reputation for being a refined yet responsive drive.Residing in ownership with the vendor for some 50 years, since 1971 to be more precise, we understand it was supplied new to the Limestone Farming co. Ltd in Gainsborough and to this day, still wears its original 1951 registration number ‘CJV 17’.With a largely original interior, it has seen a new headlining and there is also a working clock. Over the years ‘CJV’ has been Waxoyled four times and benefitted from a new radiator and a stainless-steel exhaust. It is understood there was an engine overhaul in the late 1970s and more recently it has benefitted from attention to the brakes. Accessories include the original jack with handle, wheel brace, tyre levers, spats and a complete tool tray. Additionally, ‘CJV 17’ has flashing indicators and a tow bar.Along with a collection of old MOT documentation dating back to 1975, also on file are the chassis card records, a collection of invoices, factory maintenance/service manual, old tax discs, a copy of the old-style logbook and the original handbook plus the current V5C. We are advised a number of spares are available by separate negotiation. For more information, please contact: James McWilliam james.mcwilliam@handh.co.uk 07943 584760
Registration No: J190 PKV Chassis No: WBABB22000EC16204 MOT: March 2025Rare and desirable Motorsport example, being 1 of only 250 produced in right-hand drive1 of only 50 manufactured in the final year (1991) and 1 of only 25 finished in Calypso Red Subject to a comprehensive restoration in 2010Current ownership since 2009 and seven former keepersPLEASE NOTE: This lot has eight former keepers instead of seven as catalogued.This lot has a fault with the electric hood which is not functioning. The fault is believed to be with the control module but this has not been confirmed. The 325i Motorsport was a limited-edition variant based on the 325i Convertible which was available between 1981 and 1991. There was a total of 590 cars produced and 250 in right-hand drive. The Motorsport kept mostly standard 325i running gear other than the addition of M-Technic sports suspension. Offered with the choice of manual or automatic gearboxes, the Motorsports were unique to the rest of the E30 range because of the paint colours and interior trims on offer. Colours were Macau Blue, Calypso Red, Sebring Grey, Mauritius Blue and Nagaro Silver depending on model year, with the interiors offered in an extended leather covering not only for the seats but the whole door card, centre and handbrake consoles as well as the ashtray. The early cars started with un-kitted metal bumpered cars (M-Tech 1 kit was an optional extra) through to plastic bumpered cars with the M-Tech 2 kit fitted as standard on later examples. The Motorsport cost over £30,000 when new.Manufactured in 1991, the 325i Motorsport was supplied new to the United Kingdom being registered on the 1st of August that year. This example is one of only 25 Motorsports manufactured in Calypso Red and is allied to the Lotus White leather Motorsport interior trim (only fitted to 1991 cars) which has recently been reconnolised. Provided with a comprehensive restoration in 2010, the BMW was subject to mechanical overhaul, suspension refurbishment, interior refresh, and the Black hood was replaced. Since then, the BMW has further been provided with renewed cooling equipment (including new water pump) in 2020, additional interior improvement and rear brake shoes in 2019. Supplied with a history file that includes a collection of past invoices, a small number of previous MOT certificates, and a current V5C document. Provided with a no advisory MOT certificate until March 2024, ‘J190 PKV’ is offered having covered a total of 122,500 miles (atoc) from new, the BMW has been in the current ownership for twelve years and has eight former keepers. The vendor rates the condition of the bodywork, paintwork, and electrical equipment as 'very good’, with the engine, gearbox and interior trim as ‘excellent’. A rare and desirable model in one of the most scarce of the limited colours. For more information, please contact: Paul Cheetham paul.cheetham@handh.co.uk 07538 667452
Registration No: NNB 259G Chassis No: 1R8948 MOT: ExemptDesirable 'matching numbers' example with just 12,000 recorded milesFinished in its original colour combination of Primrose Yellow paintwork with a Black leather interior and Black hoodLong-term previous ownership (thirty years)Recent new mohair hood and full repaintOffered with Heritage CertificatePLEASE NOTE: This lot now has a saleroom estimate of £50,000 - £60,000.Interested parties should note that with the minimal use the E-Type has seen, a degree of recommissioning should be anticipated.Triumphantly unveiled at the 1961 Geneva Motor Show, the Jaguar E-Type created a furore thanks to its supercar performance, stunning looks and modest price tag. Early racing success at the hands of Graham Hill and Roy Salvadori amongst others helped cement the newcomer's reputation. Built as a monocoque with an engine cradling front sub-frame, the E-type's combination of all-around independent suspension and disc brakes allied to rack-and-pinion steering resulted in excellent roadholding and handling capabilities. The indomitable straight-six XK twin-cam engine supplied abundant power. If the design had an Achilles' heel then it was the recalcitrant Moss gearbox. However, Jaguar was quick to correct this shortcoming with a four-speeder of its own design just part of a continual programme of E-Type development that saw the model metamorphose through three Series. Introduced in August 1968, the Series II cars were distinguishable by their revised bumper and light arrangements. Less noticeable was the increased size of the front air intake that in conjunction with dual cooling fans made the Series II better behaved in hot weather and heavy traffic. With its 4235cc engine developing a quoted 265bhp and 283lbft of torque, it was reputedly capable of nearly 150mph and 0-60mph in 7.5 seconds. Available in open two-seater, Fixed-Head two-seater and Fixed-Head 2+2-seater guises, the American market accounted for the vast majority of Series II production. 8,627 open two-seaters made were made.Chassis 1R8948 was dispatched to British Leyland, New York on the 3rd of May 1969, and was finished in arguably the best E-Type colour combination of Primrose Yellow paintwork with complementary Black leather interior trim and a Black hood – pleasingly the same livery in which the car is very smartly presented today. Among the accompanying history file is a document from the Illinois-based keeper who purchased the Jaguar in 1987 from the previous owner who had purchased the E-Type as a retirement fund and thus had scarcely used ‘1R8948’ with a view of maintaining its value. Retaining the Jaguar from 1987 to 2014, the document details his tenure; including the long periods of storage that account for the car's incredibly low mileage, as well as extensive improvements.Repatriated in 2014, the E-Type is now offered with just 12,067 miles on the odometer, making this 55-year-old matching numbers E-Type barely run in! At some stage, it has benefited from having its power-strangling Stromberg carburettors replaced by a trio of UK specification SUs, and having been converted to right-hand-drive. In current ownership since 2019, the vendor has again scarcely used the E-Type to maintain the low mileage. Offered with a Jaguar Heritage Certificate; reproduction handbook and workshop manual; a collection of invoices and a current V5C. Clearly the subject of ongoing maintenance over time, 'NNB 259G' boasts a previously retrimmed interior; brake and suspension overhaul including new bushes; a new mohair hood, exhaust system and Michelin tyres. The Jaguar was also repainted as recently as 2018. Surely one of the lowest mileage E-Type examples extant! For more information, please contact: Paul Cheetham paul.cheetham@handh.co.uk 07538 667452
Registration No: CCN 894B Chassis No: 11304212008246 MOT: ExemptRecently imported from California from the Beverly Hills Car ClubPresented in very original, solid condition in Red over Cream Leather InteriorA 'Coupe Convertible' with both hardtop and soft-top roofs, automatic transmission and power steeringFully UK registered with V5C Registration Document presentSuccessor to both the exotic race-bred 300SL 'Gullwing' Coupe and its humbler 190SL sibling, the W113 series SL proved more comfortable than the former and faster than the latter (a point emphasised by Eugen Bohringer's 1963 Liege-Sofia-Liege rally victory). First of the line, the 230SL was introduced at the March 1963 Geneva Salon. Penned by Paul Bracq, its wonderfully crisp styling clothed a monocoque chassis equipped with all-round independent coil-sprung suspension and disc brakes. Powered by a 2308cc SOHC straight-six engine mated to a four-speed manual transmission, the model was credited with 150bhp and 159lbft of torque. Reputedly capable of 124mph, it was praised by the contemporary motoring press for its performance, roadholding, and refinement. Available in Californian Coupe, Convertible or Coupe Convertible guises, the last of these came with both a soft-top and the famous 'Pagoda' hardtop roof, so called because of its gently scalloped centre section.First supplied to the U.S Market as a left-hand drive automatic car, chassis 11304212008246 pleasingly retains a high degree of originality including its original Red over Cream leather interior colour scheme. The car is understood to have been sold by the Beverley Hills Car Club and imported to the UK in 2021, when it was received into the custodianship of a Gentleman in London. The car was then purchased by the vendor in 2022 and was transferred to his business in 2023, therefore the V5C now displays two previous keepers.On inspection, the car appears to have retained a large amount of originality thanks to its previous life in the dry climate of California. The Red paintwork is patinated yet in overall 'fair' condition although a prospective purchaser may wish to refresh this. The interior is in a beautiful original condition and has benefitted from a set of carpets in the front of the car. Mechanically, the car does run and drive however it is understood that the head gasket has failed between a cylinder and a cooling channel and in need of replacement. However, the vendor has confirmed that he was using the car previous to the failure and all other mechanical elements are in 'good' order. The car is presented with its body-coloured Pagoda top plus a Cream mohair hood which complements the colour scheme of the car very well.The car now offers a prospective purchaser a dilemma as to whether to simply fix the mechanical issues and use as is or restore the car to its former glory - either way this is a fantastic opportunity to score the iconic 'Pagoda' 230SL for a reasonable sum.

Registration No: WIW 3679 Chassis No: Z16A0000990 MOT: NoneOnly 61,000 recorded miles and just three former keepers225hp 3-litre DOHC 24v V6 engineDesirable manual transmission exampleProduct of the same JDM 'arms race' that spawned the Honda NSX, Toyota Supra Turbo (A80) and Nissan 300ZX Twin TurboPart of the same Japanese Domestic Market (JDM) arms race that spawned the Honda NSX, Toyota Supra Turbo (A80) and Nissan 300ZX Twin Turbo, the Mitsubishi GTO debuted in 1990. Derived from the Mitsubishi HSX concept car that had appeared at the previous year’s Tokyo Motor Show, the newcomer bristled with cutting edge technology much of which is still being employed in today’s supercars including four-wheel drive, four-wheel steering, electronically controlled suspension, active aerodynamics and twin turbos. Styled by Masuru Suzuki, the 2+2-seater featured a distinctive ‘Coke bottle’ silhouette and cossetting interior. Eager not to incur Ferrari’s wrath, Mitsubishi marketed its flagship sportscar as the ‘3000 GT’ in Europe.Chassis ‘Z16A0000990’ was supplied new to the Japanese Domestic Market (JDM), before arriving in the United Kingdom in 1998. Fitted with the 3-litre DOHC 24v V6 engine producing 225hp allied to a five-speed manual transmission, the Mitsubishi is finished in Monza Red paintwork with two-tone Grey cloth interior upholstery, and features cruise control, Carrozzerla cassette radio, climate control, and electric windows. Purchased into current ownership in 2014 through auction, at which stage the Mitsubishi was described as in 'good' condition with regard to its engine, gearbox, electrical equipment, bodywork, paintwork and interior trim, it was also reported to have just benefited a recently renewed clutch assembly and had been regularly serviced.Placed into static display in dry storage since purchase by the vendor in 2014, the GTO now does require a thorough recommissioning although starts and proceeds under its own power, although the brakes certainly will require attention. Offered now with 61,000 miles on the odometer and has just three former keepers. Intended purchasers should note that the new owner will need to apply for a V5C document as there is not one present.

Registration No: SFK 600M Chassis No: 1S2329 MOT: ExemptOwned by the vendor's father from new54,412 miles from newOffered with a large history file displaying much recent expenditureFitted with the desirable manual gearboxBy 1971, Jaguar's jaw-dropping E-Type had been in production for a decade. Despite continual improvements, new emissions legislation in the all-important American market threatened to strangle the big cat's performance. Jaguar responded by giving its revered sportscar fresh claws in the shape of a 5343cc V12 developed from the stillborn XJ13 Le Mans project car. The new engine was both effortlessly powerful and eerily refined. "The turbine-like smoothness with which the engine provides a sustained shove in the back is almost uncanny, the more so when one accelerates hard in top gear." (Autocar 5th July 1973). With some 272bhp and 304lbft of torque on tap, the Series III E-Type once again had 150mph in its sights. A revised wheelbase yielded better cabin space, and in conjunction with wider front/rear tracks, new anti-dive front suspension geometry and fatter tyres gave improved road holding. Imbued with a more muscular stance thanks to its flared wheel arches, re-profiled wings and larger grille, the model also boasted vented disc brakes and a restyled interior.According to its accompanying Jaguar Heritage Certificate, chassis 1S2317 was completed on August 22nd 1973. Finished in Silver with Russet leather upholstery and a Black soft-top, the E-Type was despatched to distributor P.J. Evans of Birmingham some three weeks later and thence to the marque’s Castle St, Worcester franchisee. Purchased new by the vendor’s father and first road registered as ‘SFK 600M’ on 18th January 1974, the two-seater is warranted to have covered a mere 54,412 miles. Accumulating the majority of those during the 1970s (including several, memorable school runs), the Roadster was primarily restricted to holiday usage thereafter with trips to France and Cornwall. Driven less and less over the past thirty years, the Jaguar has nonetheless been treated to a fair amount of remedial work and minor restoration. Entrusted to leading marque specialist CMC of Bridgnorth in 2008, the E-type received attention to its power steering, brakes (new discs / pads), suspension bushes, rear subframe / differential, carburettors, fuel lines and cooling system etc plus the fitment of a stainless steel exhaust and five fresh tyres at a cost of £12,425.58. Benefiting from a new clutch slave cylinder and brake servo during 2009 and 2016 respectively, the Roadster was repainted by Worcester Classic Cars Ltd in 2017. The same company installed a new brake master cylinder and ignition pack during 2022. Awesome Auto Trimming of Cambridgeshire deep cleaned the upholstery / carpets as well as renewing the soft-top / boot mat and detailing the engine bay last year (associated £2,369 invoice on file). Passing from father to son in 2015, the latter comments: ‘a reluctant sale given the family history but I no longer have the time or budget to keep ‘SFK 600M’ in the condition it deserves’. A wonderful opportunity to acquire a low mileage, low owner, ‘matching numbers’, manual V12 Roadster at a tempting guide price.

Registration No: LJN 786E Chassis No: HBJ8L40857 MOT: March 2025Current ownership for the last twenty-one yearsSubject to extensive improvements while in the vendor's ownership including a bare metal repaintSpecified with overdrive and wire wheels from newUsed extensively while with the vendor touring the United Kingdom, Europe, and ScandinaviaOffered with a large history file including the BMIHT Heritage CertificateA significant step in terms of 'Big Healey' evolution and foundation block for one of the 1960s' most charismatic rally cars, the 3000 MkI was introduced in March 1959. Powered by an enlarged 2912cc version of BMC’s C-Series straight-six engine that developed some 124bhp and 167 lbft of torque, it could be had in two-seater (BN7) or 2+2 seater (BT7) configurations. Progressively improved, the 3000 metamorphosed through MkII and MkIIa guises before the arrival of the ultimate MkIII BJ8 in October 1963. Boasting a centre console, proper convertible hood, wood veneer dashboard, redesigned exhaust system and wind-up windows, the 2+2 seater BJ8 proved a comfortable and fast grand tourer. With engine output boosted to 148bhp and 165lbft of torque thanks to a new camshaft and better valve springs etc, its reputed 124mph top speed was accessed via a four-speed manual gearbox. Last of the line, the Phase Two variant benefited from redesigned rear suspension, strengthened splined hubs and larger diameter front disc brakes.Chassis ‘40857’ was completed on the 13th of March 1967 as a North American export car and was dispatched on the 31st of March that year destined for a dealership in Baltimore, United States of America. Specified from the factory with wire wheels, overdrive, an adjustable steering column, heater, Road Speed tyres, a laminated windscreen and a Black tonneau cover. Finished from new in metallic Golden Beige paintwork, with Black interior trim and hood, the Big Healey was repatriated to Britain in 1991 as a restoration project and was subject to repainting and converted to right-hand drive before returning to the road in 1992, before being purchased by the vendor in 2003 from renowned Austin-Healey specialist Murray Scott Nelson.Extensively improved throughout the vendor's ownership, the notable works include a carburettor refurbishment, new rear hub extensions, renewed starting equipment in 2021; front brake pads and rear brake shoes in 2020; heater and cold air trunking in 2019; new fuel tank in 2017; new wiring harness throughout in 2016; complete bodywork restoration and repainting in metallic Golden Beige paint (in a slightly stronger colour than the original) in 2015; new rear brake drums and shoes in 2014; new rear shock absorbers and new wire wheels in 2013. Earlier work also included a reconditioned overdrive and unleaded cylinder head, cylinder bores honed and new rings, new big end bearings, and stainless steel exhaust, and the 3000 has been serviced annually during the vendor’s ownership.Used widely while with the vendor touring the Outer Hebrides, Ireland, the Black Forest, Berlin, France, Switzerland, Holland, Denmark, and Sweden, with some 50,000 miles covered during the twenty-one years with the vendor. Offered with a large history file that includes the BMIHT Heritage Certificate, a vast selection of invoices for improvements and parts, a large collection of MOT certificates dating back to 1992, numerous photographs covering the bodywork restoration and repaint, breakdown of the improvement works completed while with the vendor, and a current V5C document, as well as two sets of keys, full weather gear in Black, and a no advisory MOT certificate until March 2025. Starting readily and running well during our recent photography session, this Healey is a very well-sorted example offered in an attractive colour scheme.

The latter became a familiar sight the length and breadth of the UK serving tradesmen and delivery drivers alike. Powered by three different A-Series OHV four-cylinder engines during its twelve-year production life, the diminutive commercial was surprisingly fun to drive thanks to the provision of independent front suspension, a well-located hypoid rear axle and hydraulic drum brakes. With so many worked into the ground, survivors are comparatively few and far between.First registered in the UK on 9th October 1962 and destined for Evans Motors Limited, Camarthen and then likely, Lloyd Motors, Aberayron (dealer sticker on the car) for Thomas Davies of Treberfedd Farm, Lampeter, and just 1 former keeper is recorded on the V5C. Accompanied by a BMIHT certificate, in 2020, the owner has taken the time to put the van back on its original 1962 issued registration number ‘OEJ 665’, as recorded manually in a copy of a local authority ‘Record of Motor Vehicles’ on file.In recent years the van has been the subject of restoration work to bring the condition back to a usable and conserved condition. There are many invoices on file for parts purchased at a cost in excess of £4,500, many from ESM Morris Minors Ltd. In 2021 and 2022, amongst the items supplied: the front horseshoe, a new rear bumper, wheel bearings rocker and sump gaskets, rear chassis legs, poly bushes, rear hangers, back axle hub and pinion seal, gearbox front cover and a clutch kit. Additionally, work on the braking system included the rear brake frame cylinder assembly and a front disc brake conversion.The engine received new big ends and mains, pistons and rings, thrust bearings, oil and water pumps, a duplex timing chain, a spin-off oil filter conversion, alternator conversion, alloy radiator, leads, plugs, points, a reconditioned exchange unleaded cylinder head, fuel pump, pipes and SU carb filters. Body panels purchased from ESM included front and rear panels, kick and sill panels. Inside there is an aftermarket rev counter, map light and a modern radio unit. Accompanying the little van are a couple of period Austin books, collection of spares and a current V5C. For more information, please contact: James McWilliam james.mcwilliam@handh.co.uk 07943 584760
Registration No: LB52 TPO Chassis No: ZAMBC38C000009158 MOT: April 2025SALE ROOM NOTICE: Please note that this car has now been issued with a fresh MOT.Extensive history with the majority of receipts from Maserati and FerrariFitted with a new gearbox and clutch 10,000 miles agoSupplied in the attractive colour combination of Silver over Black Leather interiorJust as the DB7 did for Aston Martin, at a stroke the 3200 rejuvenated the Maserati brand. Unveiled at the 2002 Detroit Show, the 177mph Maserati Coupe (a.k.a. 4200 GT) was styled by Giorgetto Giugiaro of Italdesign. A direct evolution of the 3200 GT, the 4200 GT Coupe was introduced at the Detroit Auto Show in 2002 and was a genuine four-seater powered by a normally aspirated, Ferrari-based engine, of 390bhp. Developing 385bhp/332lbft, its 4244cc V8 engine was allied to a six-speed transmission that could be had in conventional manual or 'Cambiocorsa' guises (the latter incorporating electrohydraulic assistance and F1-style steering wheel paddles).First supplied to a Mr A Peters of Twickenham, LB52 TPO was sold by HR Owen of Kensington and PDI'd on the 27th February 2003. Supplied with a comprehensive service history, the Maserati was cared for initially by a number of main Ferrari and Maserati dealers and then by specialists GC Motors later on. Now displaying nine previous keepers on the V5C, and fitted with a new gearbox and clutch a mere 10,000 miles ago, the current vendor acquired the car in late 2023 and has performed works in ready for an MOT including new front upper and lower wishbone bushes and has advised that he intends to put the car through an MOT prior to sale in our Buxton auction. Described as being in 'good' overall condition for the age given that it now displays circa 114,000 miles from new, it presents an excellent opportunity to buy a well cared for Italian GT car with excellent provenance for less than the price of a new VW Polo.

Registration No: SNV 860G Chassis No: 1K4954DN MOT: February 2025In current ownership since 2007 and serviced annually during this timeDesirable manual gearbox example with overdrive, and is believed to pleasingly retain its original interiorJust 84,500 miles recorded on the odometer which is believed to be genuineOffered with a large history file including MOT history back to the 1970sBuilt from 1962 through to 1969, the Daimler 2.5 V8/V8 250 was the first car to be produced by the marque on the Jaguar platform, and the last Daimler to feature its own engine. As a derivative of the all-conquering MkII Jaguar although its fluted grille and more luxurious interior gave the car an air of exclusivity. Its name was drawn from its Edward Turner-designed engine - a lightweight, eight-cylinder 2,548cc V8 shared with the SP 250. Production continued until the manufacture of all MkII derivatives ceased in 1969, by which time some 17,620 of the Daimler version had been made, making it the best-selling car in Daimler’s history.Chassis 1K4954DN was manufactured in 1969 and is a home market car, being first registered in the United Kingdom on the 13th of March that year. A notably late example with the pretty single-blade bumper, this desirable four-speed manual transmission with overdrive V8-250 is finished in Sable paintwork and is believed to pleasingly retain its original interior, trimmed in Tan leather upholstery. Showing a recorded mileage of some 84,500 miles, this mileage is believed genuine with supporting evidence back to the mid-1970s. Purchased into the vendor's ownership in 2007, the V8-250 has been MOT’d and serviced annually while with the vendor and has been maintained by Heritage Car Company of Malton. Work completed by the Heritage Car Company most recently included a renovated brake system including a reconditioned brake servo and a new master cylinder in 2024; renewed points, condenser, coil, spark plugs, and wiring repairs in 2023; and new tyres provided in 2022.Covering some 12,000 miles while in the vendor's ownership, the Daimler has been used on several Daimler Owner's Club rallies including trips to Cornwall, Scotland, and The Netherlands. Offered with a large history file that includes MOT history back to the mid-1970s (and which illustrates very few advisories in recent years); a current MOT certificate without any advisories until February 2025; previous tax discs; a large collection of invoices; the original operations manual, price list, car colour guide, and sales literature; and a current V5C document showing just four former keepers.

Registration No: YD55 WBP Chassis No: JHMAP113055201812 MOT: April 2025Five owners from new, soft-top (replaced 2021) and hardtop roofs98,500 miles with corroborating service historySaid to be 'a lovely reliable car that is very exciting at 6,000rpm and above'Introduced in 1999, the S2000 was Honda’s fiftieth birthday present to itself. Developed with precious little input from the marketing department, the front-engined, rear-wheel drive Roadster featured all-round independent double-wishbone suspension, four-wheel disc brakes and a Torsen limited slip differential. Boasting the highest per litre output of any normally aspirated engine, its 2-litre DOHC inline four was allied to six-speed manual transmission. Variable valve timing gave the 240bhp powerplant a Jekyll and Hyde character which enthusiasts loved. Inspired by various McLaren-Honda F1 cars, the digital dashboard and prominent Red starter button added to the theatre. The S2000 was thoroughly revamped for 2004 with production switching to Suzuka. As well as recalibrated brakes and suspension plus larger 17-inch alloy wheels and assorted cosmetic changes, the ‘facelifted’ version incorporated a stiffer subframe and new gearbox internals etc. Weighing just 1,260kg, the two-seater was reputedly capable of 0-60mph in 6.2 seconds and 150mph. More expensive than its Roadster sibling, the GT derivative came with a detachable hardtop in addition to its power soft-top. Of the 8,500 S2000s sold in the UK, some 6,300 are understood to remain. Finished in Moonrock Grey with a matching hardtop, Red soft-top and two-tone Black and Red leather upholstery, this UK-supplied, facelift S2000 GT entered the current (fifth) ownership in 2017. Warranted to have covered some 98,500 miles from new, ‘YD55 WBP’ is considered by the vendor to be in ‘good’ (interior trim, bodywork) or ‘very good’ (engine, gearbox, electrical equipment, paintwork) condition. Treated to a new hood in 2021, the Honda is summed-up as ‘a lovely, reliable car that pulls away at 2,000rpm and is very exciting at 6,000rpm and above’.

Martin Esq. of Healthguard Knitwear and reputedly later owned by the business tycoon Peter de SavaryPart of a private collection in recent years and employed for the occasional film and TV role including the Four Seasons mini-series (2008)Running and driving but in need of further mechanical recommissioning and a repaintWorthy of a return to its former gloryAn obvious evolution of its MKVI predecessor, the Bentley R-Type was introduced at the 1952 Earls Court Motor Show. 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 2,320 are thought to have been made (though, only 303 of those bore coachbuilt bodies). A decidedly rare motorcar, ‘FCH 880’ is understood to be one of just nine Bentley R-Type chassis to be clothed by Park Ward to its Design Number 552. A handsome four-seater Drophead Coupe with a power roof, well-resolved bustle boot and flowing wings, it was singularly expensive (especially when compared to a contemporary Aston Martin or Jaguar). Supplied new to Winston F. Martin Esq of the Healthguard Knitwear Company, the Bentley is thought to have spent time overseas before being re-registered with the DVLA during 1991. Further believed to have belonged to the noted collector and business tycoon Peter de Savary Esq, the R-Type entered the current family ownership some twenty-four years ago. Self-evidently the subject of much past restoration work, the Drophead Coupe helped earn its keep by appearing in the 2005 film ‘The Wedding Date’ and the 2008 TV mini-series ‘Four Seasons’. Showing just under 71,000 unwarranted miles to its odometer, ‘FCH 880’ appears to have covered less than 200 of those since last passing a MOT test. Laid-up in recent years, the Bentley has recently been recommissioned via the installation of a replacement starter motor. Although running and driving, it will doubtless require further mechanical work and servicing etc. Cosmetically, the Grey leather upholstery, wood veneers and soft-top are all in good order (albeit the power mechanism for the latter is not currently functioning). However, the plating has worn thin to the top of the radiator grille and the paintwork is heavily microblistered. A wonderful opportunity to acquire a scarce and very elegant coachbuilt R-Type for less than the price of a Special!
Registration No: 1543 MG Chassis No: GHN5443374G MOT: October 2024In current ownership since 2004Reconditioned engine from Ivor Seale fitted in 2021 with just 3,000 miles sinceExtensively improved during the vendor's ownershipOffered with apt cherished registration number ‘1543 MG’PLEASE NOTE: The exhaust system fitted was a mild steel one, not a stainless as informed in the printed catalogue.Introduced in 1962, the MGB Roadster enjoyed an eighteen-year production run. With nicely balanced handling and a good turn of speed, it merited the old MG marketing slogan 'Safety Fast'. Based around a monocoque chassis featuring independent coil-sprung front suspension and a leaf-sprung 'live' rear axle, its 1798cc 'B' series four-cylinder engine was allied to four-speed manual transmission. Capable of over 100mph (especially if specified with overdrive), the provision of disc/drum brakes and rack and pinion steering greatly aided control. However, the biggest visual change in the car’s history occurred when steel reinforced rubber bumpers replaced the chrome ones and the ride height was raised by one inch. By the time Roadster production ceased in October 1980, a total of 399,070 are said to have been produced.Chassis ‘GHN5443374G’ was manufactured in 1977 and was supplied new to the United Kingdom being road registered on the 1st of November that year. Finished in Flamenco paintwork with a Black leather interior upholstery and a Black hood, the MG was purchased by the vendor from a deceased estate in 2004 as a running car but requiring improvement. Benefitting from significant expenditure during the vendor’s ensuing twenty-year ownership, the work completed has included a bodywork restoration and repainting (with accompanying images), full re-wiring with some sensible upgrades, an interior refresh, a new mild steel exhaust system, and fitment of a reconditioned Ivor Seale engine in 2021 with just 3,000 miles since.A desirable overdrive example, the MG is offered with a tonneau cover which the vendor informs is in good condition, as are the tyres. The vendor rates the condition of the engine, electrical equipment, gearbox, paintwork, and interior trim as ‘very good’ and the bodywork as ‘excellent’. Offered with a history file that contains are large collection of previous invoices and MOT certificates, photographs of the bodywork improvements, and a current V5C document that shows seven former keepers. The recorded mileage (1)39,770 miles (at the time of consignment) is understood to be genuine, and the Roadster is offered with the very apt cherished registration number of ‘1543 MG’. A nicely presented example of the ever popular MGB, that is due to be driven some fifty miles to the sale. For more information, please contact: Paul Cheetham paul.cheetham@handh.co.uk 07538 667452
