Registration No: K200 LME Chassis No: WDB1714422F149743 MOT: April 2025Offered with current V5C documentFinished in the attractive colour combination of Iridium Silver Metallic with Red leatherOffered with its original book service book and collection of MOTsThe Mercedes-Benz R171, introduced in 2004, marks the second generation of the SLK-Class roadster. A successor to the R170, the R171 brought significant updates in design, technology, and performance. This sleek convertible featured a retractable hardtop, allowing drivers to enjoy the exhilaration of top-down motoring or the comfort of a Coupe at the push of a button. With various engine options, including four and six-cylinder variants, the R171 catered to a diverse range of preferences, balancing sporty handling with refined luxury. Its enduring popularity was attributed to its timeless styling and the incorporation of innovative safety features, making the Mercedes-Benz R171 stand-out in the Roadster segment during its production span until 2010.First registered on the 11th November 2006, this SLK was specified in what is arguably the most attractive colour combination of Iridium Silver Metallic with a complementing Red leather interior. During ownership it has stayed in factory specification. The original Mercedes-Benz Service Booklet is present and records 9 entries for servicing at main dealer and independent garages, with further servicing recorded with Freeway Autos of Wigan 2018-2020. 'K200 LME' was last serviced in on 27th August 2021 at 90,710 miles, with oil and filters being done. It is offered without a reserve and accompanied by the Service Booklet, invoices for servicing and the current V5C Registration Document.

Registration No: KSG 557 Chassis No: TDC 1490 MOT: ExemptEntered from a deceased estate Dry stored for a number of years, but started and driven during our recent photography sessionDesirable (and transferable) cherished registration number Supplied with the original folding logbook Current ownership since 1993The first car to carry the Triumph badge following the company’s takeover by the Standard Motor Company, the Triumph Renown was rushed out within months of the end of the war to cash in on the booming post-war export market. The cars were coachbuilt by Mulliner of Birmingham in the ‘Razor Edge’ style that was all the rage on prestigious models of the late 1930s/early 1940s from makes like Bentley and Rolls-Royce. Due to post-war steel shortages, most of the body panels were in lightweight aluminium over a traditional ash frame. In 1949, the original 1.8-litre engine was replaced by the excellent Standard 2,088cc unit and three-speed column-change gearbox which literally transformed the car, giving 75mph performance. In 1949 things got better still with the launch of the TDB which had much-improved coil spring front suspension (rather than transverse leaf) and the option of overdrive. From 1952 a stretched TDC model was available which gave significantly more legroom for rear seat passengers, had a larger rear window and push-button rather than lever-operated door handles. Just 9,301 Renowns were built in total of which only 2,609 were TDC models and only a tiny handful survive today, making this a rare car indeed.This Renown TDC dates from 1953 and has been consigned to us from a deceased estate. Finished in striking Black, with a contrasting Cream interior; the Saloon is described by a representative of the vendor’s family as ‘Average’ with regard to the paintwork, ‘Good’ with reference to its bodywork and electrical equipment, whilst the engine, transmission and interior trim are described as ‘Very Good’. Starting easily and running nicely as we moved it around for these photographs, this extremely rare and quirky pocket limousine looks excellent value (considering it is being offered entirely without reserve!). Offered with a large selection of paperwork and history, including the original folding logbook, expired MOT certificates, tax discs and sundry correspondence.

Registration No: 551 XWD Chassis No: A1210428501142 MOT: July 2025Subject to a thorough brake overhaul, new battery, replacement engine mounts and fresh bushes earlier this yearOffered with a collection of invoices and current V5C documentSubject to a repaint in Ivory plus an engine overhaul as part of a major refurbishment in c.2005Current ownership since 2018The 190SL was introduced in 1955 – the year Mercedes swept all before it on the Mille Miglia with the 300SLR. Indeed, the graceful, new two-door, convertible grand tourer was sold alongside the road-going version of the SLR – the 300SL - whose styling it strongly resembled. In fact, the underpinnings of the two cars were quite different and, while the 300SL had a purpose-built tubular spaceframe (W198), its smaller sibling was built on a shortened version of the ‘Ponton’ saloon (W121) platform, which was of monocoque construction. The 190SL also boasted an all-new engine - an over-square SOHC straight-four unit of 1897cc that produced some 120bhp, which was sufficient to propel the car to a maximum speed of 112mph. The engine was coupled to a manual four-speed gearbox. The suspension comprised double wishbones and coil springs at the front and a coil-sprung swing axle at the rear. Steering was by recirculating ball and braking by power-assisted drums all round. Built to the highest standards and among the quickest comparable cars of the time, the 190SL featured a well-appointed cockpit, notable comfort for its occupants and relatively generous luggage space. The 190SL continued in production until 1963, when both it and the 300SL were replaced by the 230SL (W113). By this time 25,881 190SLs had been produced. Factory finished in the rare and attractive hue of Ivory (DB608), this particular example was one of just 2,722 190SLs completed during the 1958 model year. Thought to have begun life in Europe - if only because of its KPH speedometer (and other metric instruments) - the two-seater subsequently migrated to the USA. Acquired by its penultimate American keeper in 1994, the Mercedes-Benz emerged from an extensive refurbishment eleven years later. As well as a bodywork restoration and repaint, the work encompassed an engine overhaul, interior re-trim and a soft-top and sundry re-chroming. The gauges were renovated, the brake servo / water pump / shock absorbers replaced and the wheel bearings repacked etc. A popular upgrade, the original Solex carburettors were removed in favour of Mikuni units (which deliver more power as well as easier starting and smoother running). Resident in Maine between 2015 and August 2018 when it entered the current ownership, the 190SL journeyed across the Atlantic that same year. Kept in climate-controlled storage since arriving on these shores and road registered with the DVLA as ‘551 XWD’, the two-seater was entrusted to Southern Classics of Twickenham some four/five months ago where it was treated to a thorough brake system overhaul, replacement propshaft coupling, alternator mounting kit, new engine mounts (x4) and fresh anti-roll bar bushes (x8) plus a new chrome starter button at a cost of £5,813.06. Believed to retain its original carpets, the vendor has also ordered a new 14-pc set to be included in the sale (or post-sale depending on production time and shipping). Passing an MOT test on July 2nd 2024 with ‘no advisories’, the 190SL has barely been driven since. Indeed, it has covered minimal miles in the 19 years since the big 2005 renovations. Still presenting well as an older restoration and seemingly ready to be enjoyed by a new owner, ‘551 XWD’ is offered for sale with V5C Registration Document and sundry paperwork.The vendor informs us plans for romantic weekend country lane jaunts and pub lunch stops, have for the past few years given way to children immersed in weekend sport and with time needing to be spent with other classic cars he has, so, with a heavy heart, it is now offered to market for someone else who will have the time to use, enjoy and share such an example of a beautiful Mercedes marque.

Registration No: WLD 762G Chassis No: 1A33641BW MOT: January 2025Displaying a credible c.63,900 milesUsed frequently in current ownershipBenefitting from a recent service with attention paid to the brakes, suspension and fuel systemFitted with wire wheels and recently re-chromed bumpersIntroduced in 1966, the Daimler Sovereign was a more luxurious version of the contemporaneous Jaguar 420. Differentiated from its sibling by means of a fluted radiator grille and a better standard of equipment, it otherwise shared the same monocoque bodyshell equipped with all-round independent suspension, servo-assisted disc brakes and a detuned version (245bhp vs. 265bhp) of the Jaguar MkX's 4235cc DOHC straight-six engine. In many ways a testbed for the forthcoming Jaguar XJ6's styling and mechanical layout, the Daimler Sovereign remained in production until 1969 by which time some 5,829 left and right-hand drive examples are thought to have been made. Among the rarest of the Browns Lane-designed Daimlers, the Sovereign is a highly underrated motorcar combining an elegant 1960s design with surprisingly modern road manners.This Daimler Sovereign was registered new in October 1968. Believed to be finished in Old English White, the interior presents as very original and is finished in a complementing Blue. In recent ownership, ‘WLD’ has been used as a ‘regular driver’, along with a collection of other regularly used classic cars and motorcycles. Upon our visit the Damiler started up on the button and drove well having recently benefitted from a recent service with attention paid to the brakes, suspension and the fuel system. The service history suggests the displayed mileage of some 63,978 miles is credible, with 60,102 miles recorded up to 1990, with the car being laid-up in storage for a number of years afterwards.Chrome wire wheels, recently re-chromed bumpers and raised silver on black number plates contribute to a smart appearance, otherwise, cosmetically the car suffers from a few bubbling spots on the bodywork and a dent on the nearside rear door, but otherwise, it appears very solid. The last MOT was carried out in January 2024 with the odometer reading 62,974 miles and no advisories. Offered with a current V5C, 'WLD' would make a very useable classic that with a bit of attention to the bodywork, could be quickly improved upon.
