1920 Rolls-Royce 40/50hp Silver Ghost Alpine Eagle Skiff TorpedoCoachwork by LabourdetteRegistration no. 4928 DGChassis no. 40FW*First owned by Marcel Boussac*Updated with a Hispano Suiza front axle and servo-assisted brakes*Professionally repainted and re-trimmed in 2011*Offered from a private collection*Exceptionally well maintained and 'on the button'Footnotes:'The directors were obviously as impressed with the car as the public were when they first saw it displayed... the company's future, based upon Royce's intuitive design genius and the uncompromising standards of workmanship he set, clearly lay in the rapidly expanding area of luxury cars...' – Edward Eves, Rolls-Royce, 75 Years of Motoring Excellence.Although the 40/50hp model would in any event have earned its 'The Best Car in the World' sobriquet (actually first used by the Pall Mall Gazette in November 1911), Rolls-Royce's decision to drop all other types only served to focus attention on what would become known as the 'Silver Ghost'. Prior to 1908, when it relocated to a new factory in Derby, the company founded by engineer Frederick Henry Royce and entrepreneur the Honourable Charles Stewart Rolls had manufactured a variety of models at its Manchester premises. Cars with two, three, four and six cylinders were made, and even an abortive V8, before Managing Director Claude Johnson's decision to concentrate on the range-topping 40/50hp. The latter had first appeared at the 1906 London Motor Show and became known as the 'Silver Ghost' the following year when chassis number '60551' was exhibited wearing silver-painted tourer coachwork by Barker & Co.The heart of the Silver Ghost was its magnificent engine, a 7,036cc (later 7,428cc) sidevalve six equipped with seven-bearing crankshaft and pressure lubrication. A sturdy chassis comprised of channel-section side members and tubular cross members was suspended on semi-elliptic springs at the front and a 'platform' leaf spring arrangement at the rear, though the latter soon came in for revision. The transmission too was soon changed: a three-speed gearbox with direct-drive top gear replacing the original four-speed/overdrive top unit in 1909. In the course of its 20-year production life there would be countless other improvements to the car, one of the most important being the adoption of servo-assisted four-wheel brakes towards the end of 1923.After a successful 2,000-mile trial under RAC supervision, the factory demonstrator - chassis '60551', 'The Silver Ghost' - was entered in the 1907 Scottish Reliability Trial, completing the 15,000-mile run with flying colours to set a new World Record. From then on the car's reputation was assured, not the least in North America where the wide-open spaces placed a premium on reliability and comfort. Royce's uncompromising engineering standards demanded only excellence of his staff in Manchester and later Derby, and no chassis was delivered until it had been rigorously tested.Rigorous testing continued to be undertaken publicly too in the interests of promoting sales, the next such enterprise being chief test driver Ernest W Hives' legendary journey in September 1911 from London to Edinburgh using top gear only. Rivals Napier had just completed a similar stunt and Rolls-Royce felt obliged to rise to the challenge. Hives' Silver Ghost averaged a remarkable 24.32 miles per gallon over the 400-mile journey and on its completion was taken to the Brooklands racetrack where it was timed at 78.26mph. That car, chassis '1701', incorporated under-slung cantilever rear springs and an engine upgraded with increased compression ratio and a larger carburettor, while the lightweight sports-tourer 'torpedo' coachwork was by Holmes & Co of Derby. Orders for replica London-to-Edinburgh models poured in.A luxury motor car, the 'Silver Ghost' was not designed with motor sport in mind but that did not deter the more enthusiastic owners. In 1912 Mr James Radley privately entered his 40/50hp in the Austrian Alpine Trial only to find that the three-speed gearbox's limitations prevented him from negotiating the Katschberg Pass. As a result, Rolls-Royce prepared four cars for the 1913 event, equipping them with four-speed transmissions and more powerful engines producing 75bhp (up from 60 horsepower) courtesy of a raised compression ratio and larger carburettor. These changes made for a dramatic improvement and the team cars won six awards, including the prestigious Archduke Leopold Cup. Inspired by this success, the factory began producing cars of the same specification for customers. Officially they were 'Continental' models but are better known by the evocative 'Alpine Eagle' nickname given them by Ernest Hives.The Silver Ghost remained in production in England until 1925, 6,173 being completed at the Manchester and Derby factories, and until 1926 at Rolls-Royce's Springfield plant in the USA where a further 1,703 were made, the longest production run of any model from this celebrated company.Little is known of this Silver Ghost Alpine Eagle's history other than that its first owner was textile manufacturing entrepreneur and racehorse breeder Marcel Boussac, who at that time was regarded as the wealthiest man in France (the Prix Marcel Boussac horserace is still run at Longchamps to this day). It is also worth mentioning that in addition to the Alpine Eagle specification mentioned in the build sheets, the chassis is designated 'high speed'. Boussac had his sporting Silver Ghost bodied by Labourdette, one of the oldest of Parisian master coachbuilders, and the result, with its dual cowl and long doors, is undeniably very elegant. Other notable features include a top-opening windscreen; rear Auster screen; Lucas 'King of the Road' headlights; scuttle-mounted sidelights; and Toby diver's lamps at the rear – all recently re-plated in nickel.West Hoathly Garage repainted the 'Ghost in 2011 to a very high standard while the interior was beautifully re-trimmed at the same time, featuring deep-buttoned light grey leather upholstery; a wooden dashboard; and blue carpets. Front and rear tonneau covers are present also. Sensible upgrades include a Hispano Suiza front axle; servo assisted brakes; Smiths 0-80mph speedometer; Smiths 8-day trip clock; electric fuel pumps; and a fuel gauge concealed within the glove compartment.Part of a private collection, exceptionally well maintained and 'on the button', this most elegant Rolls-Royce is ideal for 20 Ghost Tours and many other prestigious historic motoring events.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
One of only five UK-supplied right-hand drive manual models2005 Ferrari 575M Superamerica ConvertibleCoachwork by PininfarinaRegistration no. FJ06 AVPChassis no. ZFFGT61000144215*One of 559 built*Present ownership since 2007*Circa 22,086 miles from new*Full service historyFootnotes:In 2004, Ferrari released a limited run of 559 examples of a striking and innovative convertible version of the 575M: the Superamerica. Introduced in 2002, the 575M (Modificata) was an evolution of the acclaimed 550 Maranello. Styled by Pininfarina like its illustrious 'Daytona' predecessor, the 550 Maranello was similarly proportioned, adopting the classical combination of long bonnet, small cabin and truncated tail. Styling details such as the bonnet air scoop and hot air outlets behind the front wheelarches recalled the great competizione Ferraris of the past, in particular the immortal 250 GTO, while the tail incorporated Ferrari's characteristic twin circular lights. Drawing its name from the iconic Pininfarina-designed Lampredi V12-powered GT cars of the 1950s and '60s, the Superamerica retained the 575M's 5,748cc engine, six-speed gearbox, and running gear together with its general design while featuring a unique pivoting photo-chromic roof. The work of Pininfarina's chief stylist Leonardo Fioravanti, creator of the legendary 365 GTB/4 'Daytona', it was the first roof of its kind ever fitted to a production car and was built using a carbon fibre frame integrated with electro-chromic glass. The transparency of the glass could be adjusted from within the cabin to transmit varying amounts of light, letting in approximately the same amount of light as a conventional glass sunroof at its lightest setting and only 1% of the sun's rays at its darkest. With the press of a button, the Superamerica can be transformed into a convertible, with the roof rotating back to rest flush with the boot lid in just 10 seconds.Finished in Nero Daytona with matching leather interior, this stunning Superamerica was supplied new via Graypaul Nottingham to Howard Walker of Preston on 31 February 2005. Its late owner purchased the car from Graypaul Nottingham in June 2007 at 1,449 miles. The Ferrari was serviced by Graypaul in 2006 and there are a further seven services recorded, the most recent being by M D Allen in 2017 at 21,858 miles. (The current odometer reading is 22,086 miles.) A sports exhaust system was fitted 2008 and the Superamerica comes complete with its leather wallet; full book pack; and a file of old MoTs and most service bills accumulated during the deceased's ownership. The Superamerica has become one of the most highly coveted Ferraris of recent times thanks to its rarity, uniquely innovative design, and the exhilarating driving experience that can only be had behind the wheel of one of these modern Ferrari V12 roadsters. An opportunity not to be missed.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
