Registration No: SGS 285W Frame No: 17721 Engine No: 14838 CC: 500 MOT: ExemptWell-presented and maintained lightweight tourerUsed in Guzzi Club events and the Tour Des ColsSupplied with a lots of paperwork, receipts and a V5CMoto Guzzi was established in 1921 by three friends from the Italian Air Corps and is Europe’s oldest motorcycle manufacturer in continuous production, based in the same factory in Mandello del Lario overlooking Lake Como ever since. After mainly producing single cylinder designs for their road bikes Moto Guzzi launched the 750cc V7 in 1969 to satisfy the demand for larger capacity bikes and the iconic transverse shaft drive vee-twin layout has now become Guzzi's signature design from the sporty Le Mans models to the custom Californias. The V35 and V50 models were launched as lightweight versions of the bigger capacity V-twins introducing an entirely new group of riders to the mystique and cachet of the Moto Guzzi brand.This V50, part of a Moto Guzzi enthusiast private collection, has enjoyed various modifications under his ownership to make it a more practical and comfortable lightweight Tourer. The bike has been maintained to a high standard, used mainly for VMCC and Moto Guzzi club events and taking part in the Pyrenees Tour des Cols in 2015. Acquired by him as an unfinished ‘project’ in 2012, it was treated to an engine overhaul including new barrel/piston kits, head and carb overhaul, a new breather system and K and N air filters. A new clutch plus a new starter motor (late geared type) were fitted with a new drive shaft/universal joint. A taper roller steering bearing conversion replaced the ball and cup originals and the bike refinished in Black and Gold paintwork with a Monza handlebar fairing and V65 lowers. A full brake caliper overhaul was carried out with new pads/discs, a Monza master cylinder and an overhaul of the original “linked” foot brake master cylinder, with Goodridge brake hoses all round. A Keihan stainless exhaust system and sump extension were practical additions. The bike is fitted with an Electrex World regulator-rectifier, better suited to the Moto Batt Gel Mat battery, Oxford heated grips and a Garmin GPS mount. The finishing touches are a new Elektronik Sachse electronic ignition and full carburettor overhaul in 2023. Included in the sale is a full maintenance/service record covering current ownership with parts receipts, a workshop manual and electronic ignition instructions /warranty information, spare cables, some service spares and the original V50 parts including the round headlight, Bosch electronic ignition system and original regulator -rectifier.

Registration No: LXS 715 Frame No: 21626 Engine No: 2286 CC: 250 MOT: ExemptRare in the UK Moto Guzzi Airone 250 SportTypical Italian style and race breed technologySupplied with a large paperwork file and a V5CMoto Guzzi was established in 1921 by three friends from the Italian Air Corps and is Europe’s oldest motorcycle manufacturer in continuous production, based in the same factory in Mandello del Lario overlooking Lake Como ever since. One of the founding fathers was Carlo Guzzi who gave his name to the company and was also the chief designer, always innovative they were very successful in Grand Prix racing with products as diverse as the 350cc horizontal single that won five world championships in a row to the incredible 500c V8. The forward facing cylinder with an outside flywheel became Guzzis signature layout until the arrival of the big vee twins in the late 1960s. The Airone isn’t as well known in the UK as its bigger brother, the 500cc Falcone, but in Italy the 250cc single was by far the bigger seller and the model was in production from the late 1930s through to 1957. An expensive bike in its day and rare in the UK, this beautifully presented Airone is the Sport model with a Sport cam, a higher compression piston and a Dellorto SS1 25mm carburettor. Bought by the vendor in 2013 as an unfinished project, the paint, chrome and preparatory mechanical work was already done with the cycle parts and frame repainted or re-chromed, wheels rebuilt and new or refurbished mechanical parts already sourced and purchased ready for the final engine rebuild. In 2018 the engine/gearbox was completely rebuilt using fully refurbished crankcases, a new crank, refurbished gearbox, a new clutch, plus all new bearings, bushes, gaskets and seals together with a full piston, barrel and head restoration. The bike has been fully rewired and with a reconditioned dynamo and magneto fitted. By late 2019 this Airone was finally ready for UK registration and issued with an age-related number. The machine was briefly run and tested after completion and went very well but due to ill health it has not been used since so will need a light recommissioning and then running in. The quality of the paintwork and the chrome/ alloy brightwork is very good and it comes supplied with a large paperwork file of technical information and receipts, some spares together with a current V5C.

It became a legendary model and also one of the most spectacular commercial successes in Vespa's history. The Primavera incorporated and combined a number of unique characteristics that had featured on other Vespa models. With previous sport models in mind like the GS, a small body like the Vespa 50 introduced in 1963 and the racing SS90. The Primavera was a fresh new model that particularly appealed to the younger rider. An elegant quick scooter with extraordinary handling that only one who has ridden one can relate to. The standard Primavera remained in production for 15 years and was only eclipsed in 1976 by the ET3 version, a model characterised by its electronic ignition, three transfer ports on the cylinder, a new elongated silencer taken from the SS90 and an ignition key on the handlebar. All of this translated into even better performance. The ET3 was in production for seven years until it was replaced by the PK range in 1983.This super example was recently restored by the well-respected Retrospective Scooters of London. It is one of the last ET3 Models to be produced in 1982 the last year of production. Our vendor purchased it in 2019 for £6750 (the bill is included in the documents) but rarely uses it so it is up for sale. It has only covered 1645 miles since the restoration. There are many original parts all over the machine as it is still a standard ET3 125 with original Dellorto carburettor albeit with a 12V conversion for better lights and ignition. Our consultant was able to see the scooter working fine and rode the scooter on the road. This most sought-after Vespa model seldom comes onto the market.

Interest in Morgans of this period has never waned and, if anything, increased in recent times‘Red Rusty’ was assembled approximately 8 years ago from a collection of original parts. A new wooden body was constructed using the traditional ash and tulip wood to the original Morgan patterns and construction methods. It also benefits from newly fabricated oil and petrol tanks from aluminium. Every other part of this Morgan is original and correct to the era and Morgan, we believe even the paint is still the original Morgan application. The JAP 1100cc OHV engine is the correct 60” water-cooled type with its desirable and rare twin-float carburettor and the added bonus of a modern electronic ignition ensures the performance is sufficient. The transmission, again, is the correct organ 3-speed with reverse with chain drive to the rear wheel. The unique patina and originality make this Morgan stand out from the crowd and is a hugely enjoyable and drivable Morgan. This is a truly usable car and would not disappoint its new owner and would be the talk any crowd of enthusiasts. For more information, please contact: Mike Davis mike.davis@handh.co.uk 07718 584217

Registration No: PXS 989 Frame No: 16728 Engine No: T1POB 16899 CC: 125 MOT: ExemptPLEASE NOTE: The reserve has been reduced.Extremely originalCorrect numbersV5C for UK roadsThe Lambretta Model B was first introduced in the November 1948 and represented numerous and substantial improvements over the preceding Model A. The wheels were increased to 8 inch as opposed to the previous 7 inch, a larger fuel tank, more efficient suspension and the adoption of a Teleflex hand gear change instead of the previous foot change system. Around 37,000 were produced in total in the 15 months the B was in production.This 1949 example was first registered in Milan the home city of the Lambretta and is supplied with its original Italian Milano ‘Targa’ number plate. Now UK registered to use on the roads here. It is roughly mid production and has the glass rear light lens (later models had plastic) and the bakelite Model A type light switch on the headlight. It is extremely original and on examination of the photographs one will see this. According to the vendor the fuel tank was cleaned internally, the carburettor was electrostatically cleaned and the scooter was fired with new tyres and fuel tap. The original flywheel was re-magnetised and the whole system is standard and still on original 6v electrics. The coil was replaced with a NOS original. The sooner had not been started for some considerable time but we were able to see it briefly running at the time of consignment. It will probably need another fuel service after not being used for some time. The seats are in good usable condition the rear one being an aftermarket accessory seat. The scooter also comes with an original user manual in Italian (not a copy) which is a valuable document in itself.

Registration No: 515 XVU Frame No: 309683 Engine No: 651402 CC: 125 MOT: ExemptExtremely original and standardIn fully working order ATCValuable accessoriesV5C for use on UK roadsThe Lambretta Li Series 1 was properly launched in April 1958. Some 7 months after the TV175 series 1 was launched. By then Innocenti had eliminated most of the engine problems that the 175 had. The Li 125 was a dramatic departure from the shaft driven LD range that had preceded it. The new enclosed chain driven engine was centrally positioned under the frame and had more power than the LD. With larger 10 inch wheels and beautifully designed panel work it was a superb scooter to ride and was instant hit. The Lambretta Li125 series 2 was launched in October 1959. Based on the successful series 1 with the obvious difference was the position of the headlight on the handlebars for better lighting when cornering. It had an engine based on the Li125 series 1 but with an increased stroke and several other small modifications all over the scooter that made it the best-selling Lambretta of all time.This very original machine was sourced according to our vendor via Rimini Lambretta Centre and was subject to a service there before being imported around 2020 into the UK. Originally licensed in Ancona, Italy the scooter is supplied with its original ‘Targa’ Italian number plate in addition to the UK license plate. During the service the scooter had a new rear shock fitted and new tyres. We are informed that even the piston is the original although it has had new rings fitted which are still not yet run in. The electrics are still on 6v points and all over the scooter one can see originality including the lights, carburettor and engine. The original paint shows no obvious signs of any touch ups and has a pleasant all over patina with a good condition front mudguard. The scooter has some valuable accessories including a Cavalli Falbo ‘pig nose’ horn cast embellisher, Cavalli fork covers and a top of the range Rimini leopard Pegasus seat. Other accessories are original hand and lever grips. The scooter comes with the steering lock key and is fitted with an aftermarket Li125 speedometer. We are informed by the vendor that the sooner rides really well and we were able to see the scooter running very well with no issues at the time of consignment. The original light switch has been damaged in storage and supplied is a genuine NOS replacement switch will be supplied with the lot. This scooter is ready to ride and enjoy on the road.

Registration No: Unregistered Frame No: 22/2/258767 Engine No: SX200/258901 CC: 198 MOT: ExemptOriginal all over including paintMany important original parts unique to the ‘Electronic’ present Rare Electronic version of the design icon by Nuccio Bertone acclaimed for his designs for Ferrari and LamborghiniCorrect numbers very closeNOVA for UK registration The DL200 was the last of the great Lambretta scooters that rolled off of Innocenti’s production line in Milan. Produced from January 1969 until April 1971 it is said a total of only 9350 DL/GP200s were made and less than 1000 were electronic versions. The DL200 followed the SX200 and retained the engine prefix of SX200 before the serial number. The iconic bodywork followed the trends of the day of the early 1970s. The Bertone design was more streamlined than its predecessors with a new 22/2 frame and rectangular headlight. There were however significant improvements to the engine over the SX including: improved crankshaft, a complete overhaul of the gearbox ratios and improved Ducati ignition. The electronic version went even further with a 6v electronic ignition and CDI unit and these today are extremely collectible. The only immediately noticeable difference between the DL and GP Electronics was the battery being absent from the DL version, and different front panel badge.This 1971 manufactured DL200 Electronic is in a challenging condition and will prove to be a project for only the most proficient Lambretta enthusiast. We can only guess what has happened to this poor machine as the frame is generally solid but looks like the scooter has misbehaved and has been attacked by a hammer. However, having said that it is in its original state and so many original and almost impossible to find parts are there and this can be clearly seen by examination of the photographs. Starting with the electrics she has 6v red original CDI 323901 with black wire and presumably the original electronic stator plate. The ignition switch is the original with key number 162 visible. The light switch is the original. The seat frame is the original Guiliari. The cables appear to have never been removed are all fastened with the correct straps and have the correct grease nipple points. The original KM speedometer is present and stopped at 10222 kms. The brake adjusters are the original late short versions found only on late GP/DLs. The plastic parts are also original black including the petrol flap. The correct ball-end levers, shark teeth and cast badges front and back are all present. The engine appears to be complete and original with correct kick start but the casing has significant damage. The carburettor and exhaust are missing but these are not hard parts to obtain. The side panels are missing but also standard DL/GP panels are identical. The front hub and disc brake all appear to be complete.This is a very rare opportunity for the most serious restorer or conservator of Lambrettas if you are up to the challenge.

Registration No: MWV160F Frame No: 20/9 590959 Engine No: N/A CC: 135 MOT: ExemptPLEASE NOTE: The reserve has been reduced.Professionally built in the UK to Rimini/CASA specificationUsed regularly by our vendorV5 and ready to use on UK roadsThe Lambretta Lui range was part of the ‘Luna Line’ and was launched in August 1968 as a futuristic masterpiece of Italian design collaboration between Innocenti and design house Bertone, famed for their designs for Ferrari and Lamborghini. A lightweight scooter it was marketed in the UK by Lambretta Concessionaires as ‘The Space Age Look for the year 2000’ in the space race era of the time in 1968. Despite a huge marketing campaign by Innocenti the Luna line sold poorly in general and this has resulted in a fairly scarce amount of survivors. It was one of the last scooters to come out of the famous Milan factory.A trend in recent times has been to customise the Luna Line scooters into road Tourers and this has been led largely by Dean at Rimini Lambretta Centre. A well-thought-out new engine (ONE 35) with a 135cc capacity has been refined over the last 10 years together with CASA Lambretta and has been tried and tested by Rimini staff on many long rides and rallies. The combination of compatible engineering components has resulted in a machine that can cruise at almost 70mph.Presented here is a 135cc Tourer that is reportedly using over £3500 in engine parts alone. The parts are pictured in this description and include: CASA engine casing polished by JW Polishing, a CASA 135cc top-end kit, CASA crank, Firefly 12v ignition, 5-speed CASA gearbox, Polini 24mm carburettor, CASA performance maxi box exhaust and BGM adjustable rear shock. The scooter also has a Vega style rear light set up and an inline Spare wheel on customised holder.The vendor has also registered the correct new capacity 135cc on the V5C registration document. He has also said that he has used the scooter often including recently and that it runs very well but may need some adjustment to the 5th gear which occasionally drops out. He informs us that a competent scooter mechanic will be able to solve this. For more information, please contact: Paul Diamond info@vintagescooters.co.uk 07768 313001

Registration No: PKE 335F Frame No: 125LIS 877264 Engine No: 125LIS 877392 CC: 200 MOT: ExemptFull creation in 2007 at Rimini Lambretta CentreMany original Ancillotti period partsImpressive attention to detailUnique tribute scooter signed by the Ancillotto brothers in personV5C stating 125cc for use on UK roadsRimini Lambretta Centre was formed in Italy in 1994 by British scooter enthusiast Dean Orton and Italian Lambretta genius Paolo Catani in 1995 then known as Adriatica Lambretta opened its first shop in a small seaside town just north of the city of Rimini. Quickly obtaining a reputation as a centre of excellence for quality Lambretta restorations the company moved into tuning, spare parts, and accessories for all models of Lambretta. With a professional team trained to apply fastidious attention to detail RLC has set the global bar for quality in the marque and is still an ever growing success today.The Ancillotti Tribute Racer came to be as an idea by Paolo Catani partly it is said because RLC had collected many scarce Ancillotti parts to hand. The Ancillotti story is a fascinating tale of racing passion actually going back to 1938 when Gualtiero Ancillotti opened a workshop in Florence modifying and racing Harley Davidsons. His two sons Alberto and Piero who in their early years had been racing go karts supported by their engineer father joined the business around 1962. After experimenting with motorcycles and Rumi scooters amongst others the Ancillotti brothers specialised as far as scooters went with Lambretta performance customisation from 1962 and did not deviate to Vespas as their great rival Giancarlo Gori had done when Innocenti folded. They were still working on racing motorcycles alongside and won over 20 national and international racing events. They had many trademark signatures including specialised engines, racing seats and exhausts that many know their name from today. Kits were sold internationally including via Nannucci in the UK. At their height 1978-79 they were selling around 3000 specialised machines a year and had 45 people working for them but around 1986 closed down due to Japanese competition. It was folklore that the Ancillotti brothers were not known for throwing money around and their own motorcycle club had added a dollar sign to the Florence clubs logo in tribute to their most famous members.The dollar sign is the first notable signature of this most splendid of machines. Completely Ancillotti style in the yellow colour that they used it is foremost the engine specification that needs to be mentioned plus the unique huge Jaeger rev counter another trademark Ancillotti feature and all on an original Florence Lambretta Special scooter - the birthplace of Ancillotti. The engine has full original Ancillotti 200cc kit: Dyke ring piston, barrel, 4 bolt fixing manifold and large bore exhaust. The seat is an original Ancillotti hand-made aluminium seat with pull-out cushion for fuel and it is this we are told that Giuliari used as the inspiration for their own reproduction version of the seat. A truly very rare accessory! When the scooter was completed it was signed by the Ancillotti brothers themselves one on each side panel with their definite signature of approval. The scooter was sold to a British collector Paul Cromwell who had seen it being created in 2007 and made sure it was going to be his. Our vendor, a perfectionist, bought it from Paul and commissioned British Lambretta performance guru Ron Moss to go over the motor. Ron was able to find out that one of the gudgeon pins had moved out of position and the piston had been scored. He was also able track down 2 exact Dyke ring original pistons by an incredible stroke of luck (the spare one is supplied with the lot) and he also sourced a period VHB 30mm carburettor. The result is we are told a smooth powerful reliable road scooter comparable to a GP200 in performance but with a pedigree of originality with so many original and rare performance parts within.The fastidious attention to detail typically any Rimini built scooter is there for all to see all over this scooter. Anyone who has had a chance to see a Rimini scooter or has been to their fabulous workshop will know that they only use the finest original parts. Of note on this machine to retain the originality it is still on original 6v points and the ignition is of course original number 646 with the original key as all of the locks are original with original Grabor, OMR and GAMA keys. The speedometer is an original SX200 version. On close inspection they cables are all correctly done as original spec with all grease points restored correctly and cables tied with correct fixings. Every nut and bolt is original either NOS or refurbished. The scooter is also supplied with the original Spartan tyres that were favoured by Ancillotti. The scooter is also supplied with its original Firenze (Florence) Italian registration document and even its original Italian FI prefix number plate and is also registered as a 125 in the UK on the V5C. Full details of the project and the restoration are still available to view on the Rimini Lambretta Centre website and can also be found in Scootering magazine September 2008, a copy of which is also supplied with the scooter.A Rimini special project restoration of this magnitude today would cost far in excess of the auction estimate. In addition there are the rare original Ancillotti parts that must make this a true one off. Perfectly set up by no other than the legendary Ron Moss this Rimini scooter is a unique opportunity.

Registration No: KCG 54E Frame No: SX200 835062 Engine No: SX200 835330 CC: 198 MOT: ExemptBritish registered from new with full historyOriginal green log book confirming provenanceCorrect numbers only 268 apartV5C for use on UK roadsMany regard the SX200 to be the finest scooter Innocenti produced, and possibly regarded as the best scooter ever made. The SX range retained most styling features of the TV 175/200 Series III that preceded it. The bodywork, however, was more angular and streamlined than that of the preceding LI models. Like the TV Series III, the headset housed a keyed ignition/light switch in the space where the standard LI had a simple kill switch. The SX200 had improved performance and gearing over the previous TV200 models. The SX is the quintessential Lambretta, they are extremely prized by collectors and the SX200 with its own uniquely styled panels and powerful motor is the absolute top of the scooter tree.This mid-production example was first registered in Great Britain by motorcycle dealers Williamson and Peacey of Winchester on 26th June 1967 and sold to David Rogers on the 18th June 1968. It has been left in the will of David Rogers the sole owner of the scooter to our vendor's wife. She has allowed a picture of David riding it back in the day with her mother to be included in the history file and this is included the sale. As we understand it David restored it around 2010 with the help of a motorcycle club after many years of wishing to do so. At this time he also applied for the original number to be restored to the scooter successfully. We note that the scooter has many original parts and the original speedometer shows a credible 7,373 miles. This can be deduced particularly because the panels are in extremely good condition and most notably the original Giuliari seat still has its original red cover in strikingly superb condition with no rips or tears. The engine casing and gear levers also looked like they had had light use. There are a great deal of other original parts used including the original ignition switch number 117, toolbox lock and key and steering lock are all original. The engine is completely standard as a 200cc with the original SH1/20 carburettor and original long reach kick start. The scooter is well presented with attractive red side panels which are also original. The number plate has period-style vinyl numbers. This SX200 has been converted to 12v electrics but the original 6v flywheel and stator plate are included in the sale along with a large amount of spare parts and manuals (photographs to follow). Our consultant was able to start the scooter easily and also rode it on the road. It sounded and handled very well and all worked as it should at the time of consignment.

It was the first scooter of the Li range and appeared some 7 months before the Li. The new 4-speed TV machine was able to reach an unprecedented 103kmh (64mph) which was a significant improvement on the 3-speed LD models which it replaced. However, the new engine was not without its problems and various changes to the design were made during its short production run to improve things. It had a large carburettor with a diaphragm and a complicated kick start arrangement. Early examples had cable adjusters on the handlebar levers. The rear suspension had a combined spring and hydraulic shock which allowed the engine to swivel silent mounts. The wheel rims had chrome edging. The rear light had a triple bulb arrangement with an orange lens either side of a red centre. The new enclosed chain driven engine had an increased capacity and the crankshaft, barrel, piston and gearbox ratio were changed. The front forks were fitted with external shock absorbers. The rear plate and fork links were redesigned to cope with the extra power. The TV175 models were fitted with a Veglia 120 km/h speedometer face and a dual seat. The ‘Lambretta’ and ‘TV175’ side panel badges were attached to the panels with small nuts as opposed to the riveted badges on the Series 1 Li panels. Often referred to as the ‘tourer’ it had a superb performance when running correctly coupled with beautiful styling and has been hugely sought after for many years by collectors.This early version example with cable lever adjusters was imported recently into the UK and is registered to enjoy immediately. She was reportedly in use on the road in Sweden up until the present and our vendor did join a local rally on it at the time of purchase riding some 50km without issue. The scooter certainly appears to be mechanically well maintained but with striking patina. The rear shock has been replaced with a correct type and the floor mats are new but we could find little else that was not original to the scooter. Used floor mats are sometimes available and would complete the entire original look. The seat is the original Aquila Continentale with a cover replaced long ago. Please see below videoOf note the original correct speedometer with chrome bezel is showing 11,694km. The scooter being largely untouched and unmodified is showing superb originality all over the machine including: Sound deadening rough in all the correct paces, lights front and rear, carburettor and fuel tap, ignition, engine and the electrics are still on 6v points. A TV series 1 in this unmodified condition, fully running with full keys and V5C is a rare and desirable machine.

Registration No: 398 XVX Frame No: VT74259 Engine No: V56 74183 CC: 125 MOT: ExemptRestored exampleVery presentableFull working condition ATCV5C present for use on UK roadsMotovespa from Ciudad, near Madrid had been manufacturing Vespas under license since 1956 broadly manufacturing models in line with the Italian ranges. Many of the parts were supplied from Italy (Piaggio) and France (ACMA) from the beginning and then later models had many Italian Piaggio supplied parts and this dId not alter until the last MotoVespas were produced. The 125 N was the first fully Spanish built wide frame Vespa after the grey Faro Basso type. It retained the crimped beading on the frame sides., which is a desirable effect. Often referred to as the Spanish ‘Struzzo’ (Italian for Ostrich) it resembled the Italian VL range. It had many features the same as the Struzzo including cabled handlebars, 3 gears, 8 inch wheels and Femsa ignition.Here we present a very attractive example that has been the subject of a very long restoration because of the owner's insistence on sourcing original parts which he tells us took patience. He bought it 8 years ago and has decided to sell to make room for a new project. We are informed by the vendor that the attractive light green period style colour was an original paint colour for the model in Spain but we cannot verify this, however, it really is a typical 50s colour and very nice too in our opinion. Original parts that we could see were the Veglia speedometer (Douglas), lights, hubs and rims, engine cowls and we are informed all of the panels are the originals restored. We are also informed that the engine is completely standard with original barrel and gearbox. The top of the petrol tank is original however the lower part is a SIP replacement as is the carburettor. The electrics have been converted to 12v with a quality Pinasco ignition system. The original Spanish number plate is also supplied and one can see the original owner's plate beneath the seat on the carb door.We were able to start the scooter easily at the time of consignment and our consultant also took it for a little spin and all seemed to work as it should.

Registration No: Unregistered Frame No: BA 16208 Engine No: 16208 CC: 125 MOT: ExemptExtremely originalVery rare Lilac paint optionExcellent very original condition, including paintIn good running conditionThe first time a Vespa was seen in Great Britain was on the stand of motorcycle manufacturer Douglas at the 1949 Motor Cycle Show. The scooter was discovered in Italy by Douglas managing Director Claude McCormack when the company was in the hands of the official receiver. The Vespa presented itself as a solution to the British companies problems and a deal was made with Piaggio to begin production of the Vespa under licence in Bristol in England starting with the ‘Rod model’ launched in March 1951.The 152L2 range of Vespas released in 1959 were the immediate successors to the long running ‘tubular handlebar’ scooters of the 1950s and in the UK was the first model made in Britain to have cast handlebars like the GS. The 152L2 came more into line with the Piaggio production style of the VNA and had a completely redesigned flat topped body and engine which formed the basis for decades of future Vespas. Many of the parts were imported from Italy and the 152L2 is unique in that it has a mix of Italian and British made parts. The engine was a rotary inducted design which improved reliability, gave more power but reduced fuel consumption and required less oil in the fuel mix. The carburettor was relocated to a position just above the engine. The whole package was a much more professional looking machine whilst retaining many similar features of the desirable lines of the GS. With a sale price of £131 the 152L2 was regarded as a very reliable machine and could travel at 46mph. They are now becoming increasingly collectible as with most of the Bristol made Vespas.This 152L2 is in an untouched original condition and in the very rare lilac paint option. The engine is completely standard 125cc with its original exhaust which started up easily at the time of consignment. We could not see any replacement parts except an original correct switch unit. The Veglia speedometer is showing 3,597 miles which could easily be true judging by the overall excellent condition of this scooter. The white Denfield Douglas seat is in excellent condition with no rips or tears. The original paint is extremely good and the original running in transfer is clear. The floor runners are excellent and correct. The scooter is supplied with its original and hard to find windscreen brackets also in the original Lilac colour. There are also original perimeter ‘Florida’ bars fitted. The scooter will need to be registered if to be used on UK roads. This is a very rare scooter in this colour and in such excellent original condition. Please see below video For more information, please contact: Paul Diamond info@vintagescooters.co.uk 07768 313001

1951 Francis Barnett Powerbike, 98 cc. Registration number VXS 927 (non transferrable). Frame number RN 16993. Engine number 189A/19693.Sold with the V5C, R.F.60, receipts for the restoration.Francis and Barnett Ltd of Lower Ford Street, Coventry were formed in 1919 by Gordon Francis and Arthur Barnett. They were motor cycle manufacturers who, for the 1939 season, produced an autocycle called the "J50 Powerbike". The Francis-Barnett Powerbike followed the usual pattern, the first model having the Villiers Junior engine. Just after the K50 was announced for the 1940 season, the engine was changed to the new Junior de Luxe. A feature of the Powerbike was a rear hub brake was actuated by back pedalling. This had a trip action that allowed it to be disconnected when wheeling the machine but automatically re-engaged it when the machine was ridden.When the war ended the Powerbike was quickly re-introduced but it now had a girder fork that used rubber bands to provide the springing. In June 1947 Francis Barnett was amalgamated with AMC.VXS was originally registered as LAC 509 to James Fennell, then Harold Knight in 1967 and then Kenneth Richardson. In 2016 the number was taken off and Ian de Courcy bought it for £1000. He had it professionally restored by Sam Wesley, the invoice for painting was £793. Sold by this auction house in 2020 to our vendor, they have used it on motorhome trips. A new carburettor has been fitted (the old one is included).

Registration - TLJ 293R Chassis No. - 6D6 14102854 M.O.T. - Exempt Odometer - 25,438 Reliant’s small four-wheeler is popular with custom car fans, and ‘TLJ 293R’ has clearly been a very enjoyable project for one such enthusiast. Cosmetically it has benefited from a full windows-out, doors-off respray in blue, new mirrors and front window seals and new front indicator units. It also sports a new, jaunty, custom-made Paisley velvet headliner which sets off the black interior nicely and is an absolute homage to the 1970s. The 850cc engine has been fully rebuilt – according to the current owner ‘everything’ is new, ‘including nuts and bolts.’ ‘TLJ 293R’ now boasts a large Weber 34 ICT carburettor, new alternator, radiator, starter motor, clutch and upgraded roller clutch release bearing and new brake shoes all round. It also has a Rebels Racing customised exhaust intake manifold and customised four-branch large bore outlet manifold as well as a full bespoke stainless steel exhaust pipe. Finally, the Kitten which now has rather sharper claws than when it rolled off the Tamworth production line, has had a full performance tuning on a rolling road. This eye-catching little car is offered at No Reserve and should reward its new keeper with a tremendous amount of fun. Launched in 1975 and produced in the UK until 1982, the Kitten was Reliant’s second try at entering the small economy car market, following on from the Reliant Rebel of the 1960s. Based on the Reliant Robin – albeit with a fourth wheel, double wishbone front suspension and a more forward-positioned, 850cc engine – the Ogle-styled Kitten was offered in saloon, estate and van variants. When it was first unveiled the feedback was that the Kitten was essentially just a four-wheeled Robin, so a speedy redesign of the front end was commissioned, utilising the square headlamps already seen on the Austin Allegro. The deluxe DL model, introduced in 1976, had a particular claim to fame – it was the first small car in the UK to come with a rear wiper as standard. In summary: An eye-catching example, performance tuned on a rolling road and offered at No Reserve Rebuilt engine with Weber 34 ICT carburettor New Rebels racing customised exhaust system

Registration - TK 4175 Chassis No. - 106539 M.O.T. - Exempt Odometer - 35,000 This delightful little Austin Seven Chummy tourer has had just three, devoted owners from new, with the first owner cherishing it for a remarkable 68 years. During the second owner’s 16-year tenure, ‘TK 4175’ was resprayed, changing the colour scheme from yellow over black to the blue over black which it sports to this day. This is an older restoration which the vendor describes as being in ‘very good condition’ throughout. The 800cc engine now boasts an upgraded SU carburettor, and the original carburettor is also offered with the car. The Chummy has also benefited from the electric start being converted to 12v power. It bears its original, transferable registration ‘TK 4175’, has recently had four new tyres fitted, and comes complete with full weather gear including side screens and a large file of historic invoices and documents such as the original buff logbook. This is a much-loved, jaunty little four-seater that will reward its new owner with an enormous amount of fun. Apparently inspired by the Peugeot Quadrilette, the now immortal Austin Seven was announced in 1922. It is amazing to think that its tiny splash-lubricated 696cc (soon increased to 747cc) engine was the design of an 18-year-old draughtsman called Stanley Edge, and the Seven immediately became the smallest four cylinder-engined car on the British market. It featured four-wheel brakes, suspension by semi-elliptic transverse spring at the front and quarter elliptic units at the rear, while the steering was by a worm and wheel system. Taken to heart by the British public, the Seven remained in production from 1922 until 1939, during which time some 290,000 were produced. It was also manufactured under licence in France, Germany, Japan and America. The remaining cars are a vital element of the vintage movement. In summary: A charismatic example, with just three owners from new A much-loved, older restoration, presented in ‘good condition’ throughout Comes complete with full wet weather gear and a large history file

Registration - FVL 931X Chassis No. - W0LOOOO46C2754554 M.O.T. - Exempt Odometer - 85,000 miles (136,697km) This left-hand drive Kadett was first registered in Hungary in 1982 and has been freshly imported from that country in a journey in which the vendor drove the estate car across Europe to the UK without encountering any faults. This is a very rare car in the UK, very well presented and with an unusual specification, including the Luxus pack as fitted at the Opel factory, and offered complete with the period Philips 674 radio cassette player. The bright red paintwork is nicely set off by the tan leather interior, which is in very good order. The vendor describes the bodywork as ‘excellent’ and tells us that there is no rust underneath, the car is fully undersealed and that the engine bay has been fully resprayed. The 1.6-litre, 90hp petrol engine has been fully serviced, with new head gasket fitted along with new timing belt and fluids, ignition system and brand-new Weber carburettor and the cylinder head has been skimmed. The car has been also treated to a new steering rack, wiring and door seals and to four new tyres. At some point in its history the vehicle’s four-speed manual gearbox has been replaced with a five-speed unit. We are assured that the car ‘always starts and drives perfectly’. The 136,000km – 85,000 miles – would appear to be credible. If we were the new owner, we’d be signing it up for the Hagerty Festival of the Unexceptional this year, and thoroughly enjoy watching people admire our new acquisition! The Kadett name was first used by Opel for a small family car built from 1936 to 1940. In 1962 Opel brought back the Kadett name for its new range of small family cars – though the size would grow over the next couple of decades. The A series Kadett was offered as a saloon, a coupe and an estate – ‘Car-A-Van’. The D-series – Opel’s first front-wheel drive car - was introduced in 1979, going on sale in the UK five months before the Vauxhall Astra, which was its British sister model. Opel produced the Kadett D Caravan from 1979 to 1984, with the 1.6 S variant represented by the sale car produced from 1981-84. The Kadett D Caravan was offered in 1.2-litre, 1.3-litre and 1.6-litre petrol and diesel variants. The 1.6 S petrol version had the highest performance, with a top speed of 105.63mph and a 0-60mph time of 11.4 seconds. In summary: A very rare sight on the UK’s roads A LHD example, recently driven from Hungary to the UK without any faults Fitted with hew head gasket, timing belt and fluids, ignition system and Weber carburettor

Registration – MCU 271K Chassis No. – 2322064672 M.O.T. – Exempt Odometer – 37,000 A prime example of classic VW campervan, this stunning T2 is presented in rich red paintwork with white roof and details. The current owner – one of only four in its history – has kept ‘MCU 271K’ for the last four years, with plenty of work carried out during that time. New paintwork, wheels – now Porsche models – exhaust, and carburettor have all been added, as has the engine itself. There is history of an engine change by a previous owner and, despite no paperwork available, the MOT certificates tally with the odometer’s 37,000 miles. Inside, there is a working fold-out bench/bed, as well as the raised roof that allows standing room within the vehicle. This left-hand drive example was imported from Germany in 2006, with body and paintwork rated by the present vendor as ‘excellent’, while the electrics, engine, and interior are reckoned ‘good’. Volkswagen’s ‘difficult second album’, the T2 had to follow in the hugely-popular footsteps of the Type 2 ‘Samba Bus’… but it more than passed muster. In 1967, the T2 ‘Bay Window’ replaced the Type 2 ‘Split Screen’ and came with significant changes to the suspension, windows, and engine mounting – in all, just about every panel and mechanical part was new for the T2. Regularly improved throughout its life, VW added developments such as disk brakes, an optional larger capacity engine, and styling changes, with the main design tweaks carried out in 1972. The following year, further design and mechanical changes were added to the T2, which included a 1.8-litre engine and further uprated brakes, before a 2.0-litre boxer was added to the range a year before the T2 halted production in 1979. In summary: · Well presented example of a classic camper · Currently registering just 37,000 miles on the odometer · Just four owners in the vehicle’s history

Registration - OTK 851S Chassis No. - 2382084822 M.O.T. - Exempt Odometer - 53,755 Bright and vibrant in period buttercup yellow and white, this example of a late-70s VW camper even has matching striped canvas roof, shown when popped-up. ‘OTK 851S’ has been given a thorough refurbishment by its current owner, with the camper being rebuilt, including overhauled suspension, brakes, and a full shell restoration with new front panel and paint inside & underneath. The manual gearbox and 1.6-litre air-cooled engine are original, though fitted with a new carburettor, while the wheels have been treated to a powder coating and new tyres. Inside, the interior comes with tweed-style front seats, and tartan upholstery in the rear, kitted out fully with camping equipment, including ‘rock-and-roll’ bed, sink, hob, fridge, and auxiliary battery, as well as factory-fitted elevating roof. The vendor describes all aspects of the T2 as in ‘average’ condition, other than the transmission which is rated as ‘good’, on this camper with an indicated 53,755 miles on the odometer. Volkswagen’s ‘difficult second album’, the T2 had to follow in the hugely-popular footsteps of the Type 2 ‘Samba Bus’… but it more than passed muster. In 1967, the T2 ‘Bay Window’ replaced the Type 2 ‘Split Screen’ and came with significant changes to the suspension, windows, and engine mounting – in all, just about every panel and mechanical part was new for the T2.

In Summary · Beautifully restored T2 camper, with pop-up roof, fold out beds, and cooking facilities. · Relatively low mileage example with less than 54,000 miles on the clock. · Ideal chance to own a fully-functioning classic camper.

Registration - CRU 724C Chassis No. - BB22EJ36783 M.O.T. - Exempt Odometer - 28,600 This gorgeous Ford Anglia 105E is presented in cream with two-tone grey upholstery in the cabin, and looks in immaculate condition inside and out. First registered in 1965, ‘CRU 724C’ has only had a handful of owners in its near 60 year existence, with the current keeper just the eighth incumbent, and owner for the last five years. The vendor describes all areas of the Anglia as ‘excellent’ and it’s clear to see that every care and attention has been paid to this famously-styled Ford two-door saloon. All work carried out has been professionally done, including welding and painting. The 1.0-litre engine benefits from a new head gasket and carburettor, and this 105E comes with five new tyres and wheels, including the spare. It has two owners handbooks, and also comes with an old-style registration document. With an exceptionally low mileage, ‘CRU 724C’ shows 28,600 miles on the odometer. The 105E Anglia took the time’s passion for Americana and applied it to the family car’s styling. A sloping nose, muted tail-fins, and aggressively cut rear window were a significant change over its more muted 105E forbear. Introduced in 1959, the Anglia came with a new 997cc straight-four engine, which remained sluggish, but far brighter in terms of acceleration than previous models.

2002 AC Cobra By Gravetti Engineering Transmission: manualMileage:12049When a Cobra 427, wearing 'Daytona' bodywork, was tested at 180mph on the M1, the Minister of Transport retaliated by slapping a 70mph speed limit on all Britain's roads. This (apocryphal) story is typical of the folklore that surrounds one of the last production cars to be designed, built and bought purely for the joy of driving. The GE 427 is a realistic replica of the 1960's classic; devastating acceleration, grossly illegal top speed, leech-like road holding and aggressive, head-turning body styling. But with the advantages of modern engineering techniques and safety features. GE Ltd. offered four engine and three gearbox options which were fully rebuilt and guaranteed for 12 months. The ladder style chassis was fully protected with two-part acrylic paint and waxoyl. The front and rear suspension and brakes were taken and modified from a donor Jaguar which also supplied the identity and year of the car. Rack and pinion steering and wheels are Halibrand replicas. As the GE sales brochure states: 'Don't buy a GE 427 to impress your mother-in-law. Don't buy one as a family runabout. Don't buy one to take your bank manager to lunch. Buy one for the sheer enjoyment.'This particular example is understood to have been built in the mid/late 1990's and first registered in October 2002. A full photographic record is included detailing the build. Power comes in the form of the trust Rover 3.5-litre V8 with a Holley four-barrel carburettor, giving ample power and that all important V8 rumble. The suspension is adjustable, so can be tailored to suit the preference of the driver depending on their requirements. The black mohair soft top is removeable, allowing for a very authentic looking car when the roof is removed completely, as the originals were. The car is in excellent order throughout, having covered less than 12,000 miles and the Royal Blue bodywork has an excellent shine. This Gravetti Engineering Cobra is valued at somewhere between 2%-3% of the price of an original 427, and certainly provides much more than 3% of the driving experience! Offered to auction with an MoT test certificate valid until May 2024, a V5C registration document and a comprehensive service record detailing works carried out over the years and a recent bill of nearly £1900 in August 2023 for work on the steering/suspension and a thorough service.  

1936 Singer Le Mans Special Speed Transmission: manualMileage:Singers started as a bicycle maker and ventured as a motor manufacturer in 1905. They expanded and became the main challenger to MG in the thirties producing British Sporting cars. In the early 30's Singer designed a small two-seater sports the Nine with a 972 cc capacity engine. This proved successful and they went larger by producing the 1.5 litre six-cylinder triple carburettor car which could travel at 70 mph and was timed at 103 mph at Le Mans.Singer set up their own competition department in March 1933 and success followed including Le Mans, Brooklands, TT and RAC Rally with their 1.5 litre cars. Later they were a major player in the trials that were enormously important in the 1930's; London, Exeter, Lands End, London Edinburgh and the Scottish six-day trials. Aside from Singers sports car success, Betty Haig drove her 1.5 litre example to Berlin in 1936 and won the Olympic Rally and came home with an Olympic Gold medal!This wonderfully restored example of the iconic Singer Le Mans Special Speed boasts its original 1.5 litre six-cylinder engine and is one of only 71 examples ever built. Offered in very good order throughout the Singer is presented in black coachwork with black wire wheels over an interior which boasts black leather seats and carpets and a wooden dashboard, and benefits from two spare wheels with fitted tyres mounted at the rear. Previously the subject of an extensive restoration the Singer has more recently been treated to significant engine work and is reported by the vendor to be in excellent running order, and indeed on our inspection the engine fired up on first turn and sounded fantastic! Accompanying the car is a sizeable history file including copies of the original sales specifications, recent invoices, photographs during a race meeting in period, and photographs of the restoration process. In very good condition throughout the Le Mans Special Speed is eligible for many motorsport events including the Flying Scotsman and the Le Mans Classic and can also be enjoyed on the open road!

1972 Ferrari Dino 246 GT Transmission: manualMileage:21750The Dino, named in honour of Enzo Ferrari's son, was a brand for V6 engined Ferraris and the project that Alfredo 'Dino' Ferrari worked on before he died tragically of muscular dystrophy at just 24 years old. In order to homologate Ferrari's Formula Two entry in 1966, the FIA requested that 500 production cars were produced using the same V6 unit as the race car. The Fiat Dino was born using the two-litre V6 Ferrari unit which was later used in the early 206GT versions of the Dino. Ferrari used the mid-engined configuration that was working well for them in sports car racing for the new Dino and the prototype 206S was shown at the 1966 Turin show. The car drew a positive response and Ferrari put the car into production, making it the first mid-engined production Ferrari. A 2.4 litre version on a longer wheelbase, the 246GT, replaced the Dino 206 in late 1969. The beauty of a mid-engined sports car is the handling, as the improved centre of gravity lends itself to better road holding. A Ferrari Dino has great cornering ability and is an enormously fun car to drive.Our vendor purchased this example back in 1987 and has cherished it ever since. Work life and family life meant the car never got used as much as he originally intended, so it was stored away and used very sparingly over the years. The car spent around 20 years off the road from the mid 1990's, so in 2019 a thorough recommissioning process began. The work was entrusted to Modena Engineering, who from late 2019 until late 2023, went right through the car inspecting and replacing anything which had deteriorated whilst it was in storage. A total of £54,279 was spent and the car is now in fine fettle. The work began by draining and renewing all fluids, carrying out a compression test, carburettor strip down and refresh, replacement of all coolant hoses, fuel tank internal inspection, new fuel hoses, new spark plus and HT leads, ignition and fuel system checks, brake caliper overhauled, new water flow housing, a tidy up of unnecessary wiring from the car and lots of focus on wiring in general, four new brake discs and pads, new brake pipes, new headlamps, new exhaust manifold gaskets, new CV boots, new engine mounts, overhauled starter motor and alternator, re-chroming of bumpers, suspension inspection, new Koni shock absorbers, new bushes, suspension geometry setup, steering rack overhaul, new undertray, work to internal floor panel, outer floor sills, new gearbox sump gasket, gear change adjustment setup, timing chain tension adjustment, valve clearances checked and adjusted, new head studs, general engine bay tidy up where necessary with cam cover vapour blasted and returned to black, internal paint used for camshaft end plates and oil filler neck, new aluminium expansion tank, interior removed, floor panels cleaned, new underfelt fitted for floors and bulkhead, door lock and window adjustments and many many other small but labour intensive recommissioning jobs.The car is now supplied to auction in excellent condition, with what appears to be its original seats, excellent paint and the knowledge that an expert has recently been right through the car and it is now ready to be enjoyed. We do know that this car was originally built as a left hand drive example, delivered to its first owner in Italy, but has always been right hand drive during our vendor's ownership. The car is offered with a very attractive estimate for any Dino and will be supplied with a V5C registration document and twenty pages of invoices detailing the recent works undertaken. Consignor Fraser Smith

1951 Daimler DB18 Transmission: manualMileage:43447The Daimler DB18 started out in 1939 as a six-cylinder chassis on which Daimler, and various other British coach builders, offered a range of bodies including drophead coupés. The car used a 2,522cc in-line six-cylinder engine fed by a single SU carburettor.  Throughout its life, 70bhp was claimed; although later, a change in the gearing to coincide with the introduction of the Consort in 1950, marked an increase in maximum speed from 76mph to 82mph which, by the standards of the time, was brisker than it looked. The car was supplied with the Daimler Fluid Flywheel coupled to a four-speed Wilson pre-selector gearbox. The independent front suspension used coil springs while the back axle was suspended using a traditional semi-elliptical set-up. This Barker-bodied Daimler DB18 was registered in 1951 and presents well in beige and cream coachwork with cream leather trim. Described by the vendor as €œdriving as she should€ with a very sweet 2522cc engine and smooth gearbox, everything appears to be present and working. DB18's are increasingly rare and this Barker bodied example in drophead coupé configuration looks to be a sound investment given the estimate. There is currently no V5C registration document for this car as the registration process is currently underway. Consigned by Dominic Lake.

1989 Austin Mini Thirty Transmission: manualMileage:86650By the time the Mini celebrated its 30th anniversary it had already passed the remarkable production milestone of five million (achieved in 1986). Based on the Mini Mayfair and introduced in June 1989, the 'Thirty' was the most luxuriously equipped Mini Limited Edition model to date. Just two alternative paint schemes were offered - Cherry Red or black - featuring contrasting duo-tone coachlines and '1959-1989' decals and bonnet badge. Wheel arch extensions, door mirrors and sill covers were colour-matched to the body, chrome finish being reinstated for the grille, bumpers and door handles, while Minilite-style alloy wheels (soon to feature on the Mini Cooper) were a particularly handsome addition to the package. The 998cc engine could now run on unleaded petrol, and a catalytic converter was available as an option. 3,000 cars were built for the UK market, the colour split being 2,000 in Cherry Red, 1,000 in black. First registered on 1st August 1989 this mini 30 special edition is owned by Lady Judy McAlpine and is part of the McAlpine collection. Offered with an MoT until March 2024 after a light recommissioning the car has largely been stood for many years in the collection covering less than 1,000 miles since 2016 hence may need a little further attention if intended to be driven regularly. This 1275cc Mini 'Thirty' is finished in maroon with black trim with a red-piped leather interior, while other noteworthy features include a white wood-trimmed dashboard, a sunroof, alloy wheels and spot lamps to the front. Presented to auction with a V5C registration document, previous MoT certificates and described as being in good condition having been stored inside away from the elements. This rare example would grace any collection or make an ideal run-around and is offered without reserve. Consignor Mathew Priddy Guide Price £5,000-£10,000 *Interested parties should note the number plate shown is to be retained and a new, age-related registration issued instead.     *Interested parties should note that this example still requires some recommissioning as the carburettor requires some attention. It is recommended that the car is trailered away.

1950 Jaguar XK120 Roadster Transmission: manualMileage:32000The Jaguar XK120 was manufactured between 1948 and 1954; Jaguar's first sports car since the SS100, which ceased production in 1940. The XK120 was launched in roadster form at the 1948 London Motor Show as a show car for the new Jaguar XK engine. It caused a sensation thus persuading Jaguar founder and design boss William Lyons to put the car into production. The '120' in its name referred to its 120mph top speed which made the XK120 the world's fastest standard production car at the time of its launch. It was available in two open versions; first as the roadster then also as a drophead coupé from 1953 and also as a closed, or 'fixedhead' coupé from 1951. With an alloy cylinder head and twin side-draft SU carburettors, the double overhead-cam 3.4 litre straight-six XK engine was comparatively advanced for mass-produced units of its time. This same basic design of the XK engine, later modified into 3.8 litre and 4.2 litre versions, survived late into the 1980s.Manufactured in August 1950, this XK120 Roadster is one of the earliest XK's built in steel after the factory moved away from aluminium over an ash frame. Notable features indicating this as an early car include the separate chrome side lights, the lack of wing vents, the early 'studless' cam cover engine and tall carburettor dashpots. Built at the Browns Lane Jaguar factory in Coventry, the accompanying letter from Jaguar Heritage confirms that the car was sold directly and shipped to Brylaw Motors of Melbourne, Australia. The car remained in Australia up until the late 1980's when the owner, a Mr. Hall shipped the car back to the UK when his job for Coca-Cola took him from the South Pacific region to Europe. He later went on to become Vice President of Coca-Cola in Europe and presumably, this influenced the decision to move.The car boasts an impressive specification including a five-speed gearbox, telescopic shock absorber upgrade, polyurethane suspension bushes, aluminium fuel tank, electric Kenlow cooling fan, adjustable electric power steering, aluminium sports bucket seats, Brooklands wind deflectors, recessed Monza style fuel filler cap, bonnet strap and bonnet louvres. To add to all this, the car has also benefitted from recently being repainted to a high level in British Racing Green and retrimmed in tan leather. The vendor reports the car to run and drive very well and is only offered for sale to fund a new acquisition.Supplied with a V5C registration document and file of receipts amongst other information. The Roadster version of the beautiful XK120 has always been the most coveted of the XK120 line up and to find such an early car with subtle, but practical modifications is a rare find.

1961 BSA C15 250cc Registration Number: RYM 631E Frame Number: C15G1149 Launched in September 1958 and running until 1967, the C15 was BSA’s 250cc single-cylinder OHV motorcycle offering, and the firm’s first four-stroke unit-construction bike. For most of that period, after the introduction of 'Learner Laws' in 1961, a 250cc was the largest capacity solo machine that a learner could ride unaccompanied when displaying L-plates in the UK. A road-going sports derivative was added in 1961, and off-road versions, for Trials and Scrambling, were also available in the range. First registered 15/05/1967, we understand this C15 has had just four previous owners from new, is matching numbers, and in very good order. The bike has been converted to a 12 volt electrical system, and now runs on a Japanese carburettor. A great looking example and we feel a good candidate for cost effective classic biking. The BSA is offered with logbook.

1957 BSA DBD34 Gold Star - Race Trim Registration Number: TBA Frame Number: TBA Possibly the most successful production racing motorcycle ever, the post-war Gold Star formed the mainstay of clubman's racing in the 1950s. Its domination of the Isle of Man Clubman's TT led to the event being dropped after Gold Star rider Bernard Codd's 1956 Senior/Junior double victory. For the majority of enthusiasts the 500cc DBD34 in Clubman's trim is the epitome of the 'Goldie'. The DBD, the ultimate road going 500 Gold Star, appeared in 1956 when the famous RRT2 close-ratio gearbox and 190mm front brake became standard equipment. From then on BSA's perennially popular sporting single changed little until its much lamented demise in 1963. Today, the Gold Star remains one of the most highly sought after of post-war British motorcycles and is supported by a most enthusiastic owners' club. This DBD Goldie 500, according to the VCMC letter accompanied with the bike, comprises a 1957 frame with 1961 engine, fitted with a Lucas racing magneto, Bing carburettor, SC T gearbox and Lyta alloy fuel tank.   Not currently road registered and in full race trim, this wonderful Goldy would be ideal for classic parades and competition use.

1961 Moto Parilla 250 Wildcat Registration Number: 294 UYV Frame Number: 700537 Engine No 700537 This machine is a rare beast. The Wildcat was a “USA-only” product of the Moto Parilla factory, made for the huge off-road and competition market. Designed with off-road in mind, it had an immensely strong “full-loop” frame (unlike the road bikes) and was fitted with top class Ceriani GP 35mm front forks (with damping adjustment from the saddle) and adjustable Ceriani rear shocks. Completing the high specification was a 7 litre tank, steering damper and steel based, leather covered seat. The engine was, at the time, the most powerful 250cc single engine in production with 26 bhp claimed. The Wildcat shared the same tune as the road-racing GS 250 model, with high compression piston, x1 cam (50/80/80/50 timing), 28mm Dellorto SSI carburettor and remote SS2 float bowl. Most Wildcats were bought as pure off-roaders with no intention of conforming to any road legalities such as lighting, instruments or silencing. A small number were sold with an optional “Enduro” kit which provided lighting with a headlamp and mounting “ears” at the front and a rear tail light and stop light switch. An extra coil fitted in the CEV 6055 magneto provided “direct” lighting and power for the stop light. This machine, equipped with the lighting kit and optional tachometer, started life in the UK in a batch imported by the UK concessionaire, and possibly sold via Comerfords in London. Around 30 machines were taken in a deal when the factory was effectively in receivership, but strangely no one outside the Parilla board knew this! This led to great difficulty in getting any spares for the Wildcats, as they were unique models in the range, sharing no cycle parts and only major engine components such as crankcases and barrels with other 250 models. Several of those bikes were used as parts “donors”, being stripped as required to keep customer bikes going or to repair them after crashes. Some Wildcats were “scrambled” by famous names such as world champion Dave Bickers, so one can imagine some damage was caused to the race bikes. This particular bike started out as “New Old Stock”, a new and unused engine, frame and swing arm unit which was bought from an enthusiast in Devon who had many years ago acquired several complete and incomplete Parilla models. Both engine and frame shared the same serial number so it was an obvious move to rebuild the bike to a high standard using the best original components available. It has been subject to a thorough restoration mechanically and cosmetically. Externally it is as near to 100% original as possible. Original gas tank, forks, mudguards and other missing components were located or came from a stock of new/old stock parts. Replica parts were not used other than the silencer to make it possible to use on the road. Internally the engine was checked over but being unused needed little work other than replacement of seals. In current ownership the following work has been completed: · All frame parts were powder coated gloss black. · All fork parts were powder coated wrinkle black as original · Fork stanchions hard chromed · OE fasteners and fittings were re-plated with dull zinc · All OE chrome work was re-plated to UK standards · Fuel tank de-rusted internally and refinished to OE standards and pattern · New gas taps were commissioned from the original manufacturers · The seat was repacked and recovered in Italy to ensure the exact stitching methods used were replicated · The wheel rims were replaced with flangeless alloy units and rebuilt using stainless spokes · New tyres fitted The Wildcat has been fitted with a custom made stainless steel “silenced” version of the original megaphone exhaust pipe, to tame a few of the many decibels produced by what is basically a “full race” ‘60’s engine tune. The lighting kit is not fitted at this point but an OE kit was supplied. In good running order (the engine was rebuilt by a renowned UK Parilla specialist). This rare bike comes with a certificate of authenticity and history file.

1963 Greeves Silverstone Race Bike Registration Number: N/A Frame Number: TBA  - Restored competition machine The first Greeves Silverstone clubman racer was a converted scramble machine by rider Reg Everett. In the 1963 race season, the production bike used a modified 24MDS frame, narrowed at the rear and powered by a Villiers 36A engine, fitted with a Greeves head and barrel. An Amal GP carburettor and expansion chamber were installed. The result was a nifty engine that produced 31bhp @ 7,400bhp The bikes were built through versions RA5 to RE5 until 1967. The Greeves Silverstone was the training ground for many aspiring famous racers and was the preferred mount for the famous Chas Mortimer School of Racing. This 1963 model uses the MDS frame and the Villiers 36A engine, which has been tuned and previously fitted to a competitive race kart. The engine has been rebuilt, though will require recommissioning. All in an interesting bike, ideal for shows, club events or just for fun.

1985 Yamaha SRX 600   Registration Number: C396 LBH Frame Number: 1JK-002140 - Lovely bike, refinished in Kenny Roberts colours The SRX was built to follow the success of Yamaha’s mighty SR500 and SR400. The model took the more modern and sporty engine from the XT600 and crafted it into a light, sporty street bike.  The power plant was an air cooled, overhead camshaft single cylinder 608cc engine, developing 45bhp @ 6500 rpm. The SRX600 featured a four-valve head cylinder head, a two stage carburettor with balance shaft fitted to the engine to stop vibration.   The chassis was a lightweight steel frame with alloy wheels, a double disc brake on the front, single disc brake on the rear wheel. With a top speed of 110mph, this was a very desirable package, and great fun. This lovely SRX has undergone restoration and then finished in the race colours of the famous Yamaha World Champion Kenny Roberts, a design Yamaha still use on bikes today. The SRX will be sold with a fresh MoT certificate.

Fully restored with a myriad of OEM+ upgrades, a simply outstanding example recently finished with a £10,000 respray. It was back in 1970 that Ford introduced their Rally Sport models - the RS range. Originally designed as a way of building limited numbers of homologation specials for serious competition use, it soon grew into a major marketing opportunity, and one that Ford grabbed with both hands. By 1976, when the RS2000 Mk2 was launched, the term RS had grown to mean something quite special. Unlike the Mk1 Escort which was designed by Ford of Great Britain, the Mk2 was a much more sophisticated design that was jointly developed with Ford of Germany. Based on a standard Mk2 two-door saloon shell, the RS2000 used the familiar 2-litre, inline four-cylinder, SOHC, Pinto engine mounted longitudinally in the bay driving the rear wheels. A single, twin-venturi 32/36 DGAV Weber carburettor was fitted with the option of a 'Group 1' dual Weber 40DCNF or IDF set up. The front suspension used independent MacPherson struts with an anti-roll bar and, at the rear, traditional leaf springs with telescopic dampers were utilised. Front-mounted discs and rear drums were used and 4-spoke alloy wheels came as standard. Its biggest distinguishing feature was a droop snoot polyurethane nose housing four headlamps which gave it a rather aggressive look. The new car was capable of 110mph with 0-60mph taking 8.9 seconds, not too shabby in 1976 and which, combined with the car's distinctive looks and that shiny RS badge, set Ford's showroom doors swinging. In late 1978, the Custom Pack became an option and included the following:Fishnet Recaro seats, full door cards, clock and pod centre console, 6J x 13" alloys, boot carpet, remote drivers door mirror and the back panel around the rear lights was painted black.First registered on 13th February 1980, this final year of production car has been subjected to a three-year intensive restoration, making it one of the best RS2000s we've seen, finished to the highest OEM/OEM+ standards with meticulous attention to detail. Mechanically, the engine has been professionally rebuilt and features an FR30 high-torque cam, +0.020 re-bore with new pistons, and all-new components including a Piper stainless steel custom manifold with a full exhaust system, new carburettor, oversized alloy radiator, electronic ignition, and an electric fuel pump with pressure regulator and filter. The original-specification 4-speed Type-E gearbox has been retained and rebuilt with new seals and bearings, ensuring that the car remains intact, as a 5-speed unit would have required altering the tunnel. A new, single-piece prop shaft is mated to a rebuilt rear axle, complete with new bearings, seals, and an overhauled differential with the correct 3.54:1 ratio.The suspension and handling have been improved with one inch lowering blocks at the rear, one inch lowering springs at the front, new rear leaf springs, Gaz adjustable shocks, shot-blasted and powder-coated NOS front struts, alloy front hubs, and a new 2.1 ratio steering rack with track-rod ends, all sitting on new JBW wheels shod in Yokohama tyres ensuring a responsive yet comfortable experience.Cosmetically the car has benefited from a hugely expensive professional respray, correct rear light lenses and a bonnet line that impeccably aligns with the nose cone. Inside, the Aldridge interior has been retrimmed, including seats, carpet and underlay, door cards, and rear quarter trims. The dashboard has a new circuit board for dash clocks, LED bulbs and a rebuilt steering column. The underside has received the same level of care as the interior and topside. No underseal has been applied, every bracket/component has been meticulously cleaned, shot-blasted, primed and sprayed and all seals and bearings have been replaced with new ones.The extensive rebuild is thoroughly documented with over 300 photos and a large folder of receipts, both keys and numerous original handbooks and Ford folders accompany this genuine RS2000 Custom.Specification Make: FORD Model: ESCORT RS2000 CUSTOM Year: 1980 Chassis Number: GCATWU004350 Registration Number: HKR 173V Transmission: Manual Engine Number: WU00435 Drive Side: Right-hand Drive Odometer Reading: 89000 Miles Make: RHD Interior Colour: Black ClothClick here for more details and images

The bike was given a larger two gallon tank to counteract the increased fuel consumption and apart from a few other minor changes it was identical to the swinging arm D3. The D5 is one of the rarest and hardest to source Bantam models due to its production run of just 12 months.  This is a nice, previously restored example of the D5 model and with the 175cc engine that makes it a very usable machine to enjoy on the roads or at some of the many summer shows.Comes with -  current V5CEstimate: £1,500 - 1,800
