11th/12th Cent. north-east Indian Pala period Gandhara style "Siddharta Gautam" sculpture/stele in black hardstone with a "Greek" draped cloth and a serene facial expression In view of the fact that clothing, jewelery and background decorations were not introduced to the Pala sculptures until the 10th century, the origin of this image can be traced back to the 11th/12th century || NOORD-OOST INDIA - PALA-PERIODE - 11°/12° EEUWmooie sculptuur of stele in zwarte hardsteen (81 x 61 x 20 cm) met de afbeelding van Siddharta Gautama, de historische Boeddha, in Gandhara-stijl, met een op "Griekse wijze" gedrapeerd kleed om zich en een serene gelaatsuitdrukking. De Pala-dynastie, die heerste van de 8e tot de 12e eeuw over grote delen van vooral noordoost-india en het boeddhisme favoriseerde, bouwde een rijk uit dat zich in het noordwesten uitstrekte tot het Gandhara-rijk (in het huidige noordelijk Pakistan en Afghanistan). Hierdoor werd de Pala-beeldhouwkunst onvermijdelijk beïnvloed door de bekende Gandhara-stijl van de boeddhistische kunst, die zich ontwikkelde uit Griekse, Syrische, Perzische en Indische sculpturele tradities. Gelet op het feit dat pas vanaf de 10° eeuw kledij, juwelen en achtergronddecoratie hun intrede deden bij de Pala- sculpturen, situeert het ontstaan van dit beeld zich in de 11°/12° eeuw

2007 Porsche 911 Type 997 Turbo Coupé Registration no. not registered Chassis no. WP0ZZZ99Z7S789587•Built to Swiss specification•Tiptronic transmission•Exceptionally well specified (options list available)•Stored in recent years•Showing circa 1,100km from newFootnotes:Representing a major step forward, the Type 996 version of Porsche's perennial 911, introduced in 1997, really did justify its maker's claims to be 'all new'. With the 996's introduction, Porsche finally adopted water cooling for the flat-six engine, which remained behind the rear wheels of a car that shared no panels with its immediate predecessor and was longer, wider, and higher than before. Devotees of the 911 Turbo had to wait a few years before they could get their hands on the 996 version, which did not arrive until the autumn of 1999. The new 3.6-litre Turbo engine was derived from that of the GT3 sports-racer, featuring twin turbochargers, and now developed its maximum of 414bhp at a relatively low (for a sports car) 6,000 revs, with 413lb/ft of torque available from 2,700 to 4,600rpm. As usual, the Turbo was styled more aggressively, with a wider body, broader rear wing, and air intakes in the front bumper and ahead of the rear wheels. Like its predecessor, the new Turbo was only available with all-wheel drive. Not surprisingly, given the Type 996's wholesale re-engineering, the successor Type 997 - introduced in 2004 - represented evolution rather than revolution, the most significant changes being to the interior and exterior styling. The latter marked a welcome return to the 911's traditional oval headlights, and the interior too was more classic 911 than that of the outgoing 996. The base 3.6-litre engine remained essentially the same as the Type 996's, while the more expensive 'S' models came with a more powerful 3.8-litre unit. The Turbo, though, kept the '3.6', which now featured Variable Turbine Geometry (VTG) turbo-chargers for better throttle response. There was also a new four-wheel drive system. As is the case with many modern auto 'boxes, Porsche's Tiptronic got the Turbo off the line quicker than the manual-transmission version, the former racing to 100km/h in 3.7 seconds compared with the latter's 3.9. Finished in paint to sample Nordic Gold metallic with Magnolia interior trim to sample, the one-owner, low mileage 997 Turbo offered here was built to Swiss specifications and comes with copies of the bill of sale and full listing of its specification. Highlights of the latter include the following:Tiptronic S gearboxSycamore wood packageHeated seatsRear wiperCeramic composite brakesTop-tinted windscreenPark assistSport Chrono Package TurboSupple leather front and rearDoor entry guards in stainless steel, illuminatedRoof lining in leatherInstrument dials in Speed YellowPorsche crest in headrestsSeat belts in Speed YellowFootrest in aluminiumThis Turbo also has extensive extra leather trim throughout the interior.

1961 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Spider Coachwork by Carrozzeria Pininfarina Registration no. 898 XVF Chassis no. AR 171451 Engine no. AR0010600134•Supplied new to the USA•Left-hand drive•UK resident since 1998•Professionally restored 2016-2020 (bills available)•Immaculate condition Footnotes:It was Max Hoffman, importer of various European makes into the USA, who suggested that Alfa Romeo build an open roadster to compete with the small British sports cars that were proving so popular in North America. Design proposals were commissioned from Bertone and Pininfarina, with the latter securing the commission despite Hoffman's preference for the former. Designed and built by Pininfarina, and notable as the famous Turin coachbuilder's first volume-produced car, the original Alfa Romeo Giulietta Spider of 1955 brought a level of refinement and mechanical sophistication to small sports cars that made the opposition look dated. With such a pedigree the Spider was, not surprisingly, a huge success, becoming mainland Europe's best-selling small sports car and continuing in revised, longer wheelbase form after the introduction of the 101 Series in 1959. This restored 101 Series Giulietta Spider was supplied new to Alfa Romeo Inc of Newark, USA before relocating to sunny California in the late 1970s. Brought to the UK in 1998, the Alfa was purchased by the current owner in 2014 and restored by Quest Brothers Classic Cars of St Ives, Cambridgeshire over three years from 2016 onwards (bills available). The car was stripped to a bare shell, which was discovered to be rust-free; the shell was then soda blasted, repaired and primed. At this point, the running gear (already restored and powder coated) was installed and the car checked before being dismantled back to a bare shell for painting throughout. The paint colour used was the original AR716 Grey, with a tough, chip-resistant material incorporated in the paint for the under-body areas. Mechanically and electrically, everything was stripped and rebuilt, including an overhaul of the 1300 engine; stripping, inspecting and rebuilding the gearbox and differential; replacing all bearings; fitting a new wiring loom; rebuilding the instrument cluster, etc. As one would expect, the interior too was refurbished and re-trimmed in original red (floor coverings, seat coverings, door cards, etc. Other notable features include a Weber carburettor (for smoother running); a rare new-old-stock Abarth exhaust system; and an auxiliary input for the original radio. (The original Solex carburettor and air box are included in the sale.)The Giulietta has covered some running-in test miles, with the Weber carburettors (replacing the original Solex) tuned and the brakes just bedded in. Although this car does not require an MoT certificate, one was acquired on completion and has since expired (in 2019). Fewer than 1,000 miles have been covered since the engine rebuild and this delightful Giulietta Spider is ready to be enjoyed.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

2009 Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren 722 S Roadster Registration no. not registered Chassis no. WDD1994761M0019•Limited edition model commemorating Mercedes-Benz's famous 1955 Mille Miglia victory•One owner from new•Less than 100km on the odometer•Stored since delivery•Attractive colour combinationFootnotes:Manufactured between 2003 and 2010, their new SLR supercar allowed Mercedes-Benz and its then Formula 1 partner, McLaren, to showcase their collective experience in the development, construction, and production of high-performance sports cars. Built at Mercedes-Benz's AMG performance division, the SLR's engine is a 5.5-litre, 24-valve, supercharged V8 producing 617bhp, making it one of the most powerful ever found in a series-produced road-going sports car. Impressive though this peak horsepower figure is, it is the torque produced by this state-of-the-art 'blown' motor that is its most remarkable feature. The torque curve is almost flat: there is already 440lb/ft by 1,500 rpm and well over 500lb/ft between 3,000 and 5,000 revs. Needless to say, the SLR McLaren delivers performance figures that are still among the best in its class. Taking just 3.8 seconds to sprint from 0-100km/h (62mph), it passes the 200km/h (125mph) mark after 10.6 seconds and from a standing start takes just 28.8 seconds to reach 300km/h (186mph). The two-seater has a top speed of 334km/h (207mph). The five-speed automatic transmission was specially optimised for very high torque while affording the choice of different shift characteristics using the Speedshift system.The stylish roadster offered here is an example of the Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren 722 S Edition. The '722' refers to the victory in the 1955 Mille Miglia of Stirling Moss and his co-driver Denis Jenkinson, whose Mercedes-Benz 300 SLR had the starting number '722' (indicating a start time of 7:22 a.m.). The roadster variant of the 722 Edition was unveiled at the 2007 Frankfurt Motor Show as the 722 S. The latter used the same engine and running gear as the coupé together with the standard SLR roadster's folding roof mechanism. Its performance was on a par with that of the closed coupé. The model went on sale in January 2009 and production was limited to 150 units.Sold new to the current vendor, this 722 S roadster was built to Swiss specifications and comes with a list of the following features among others:Sienna Pearl paintworkSilver Arrow beige leatherRed-black fabric soft-topGarage door openerAudio 30 APS with radioMobile phone pre-installationFire extinguisherTechnical modifications (model year 2009)CD changerPassenger compartment protection19' multi-spoke wheels in forged aluminium19' brake systemBlack carbon interior trimSoft-top mechanism coverCarbon-fibre bucket-type sport seats XL sizeSpecial red seatbeltsBrake callipers in gold colour2-tone steering wheelOffered with copies of its purchase invoice and receipt, the car has spent most of the time since delivery in dry storage, hence its low mileage of less than 100km.

2007 Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren 722 Edition Coupé Registration no. not registered Chassis no. WDDAJ76F67M001264 Engine no. 15598060001309•Limited edition model commemorating Mercedes-Benz's famous 1955 Mille Miglia victory•Built to Gulf States specification•Offered from storage•Circa 250km on the odometerFootnotes:Manufactured between 2003 and 2010, their new supercar allowed Mercedes-Benz and its then Formula 1 partner, McLaren, to showcase their collective experience in the development, construction, and production of high-performance sports cars and, just like its legendary 300 SLR predecessor of 1955, it incorporated technological developments that were ahead of their time. Yet the term 'supercar' does not do full justice to the SLR, which, its peerless performance notwithstanding, is a luxurious and finely engineered Gran Turismo in the best traditions of Mercedes-Benz. The heart of any car is its engine, and that of the SLR McLaren is truly outstanding. Produced at Mercedes-Benz's AMG performance division, it is a 5.5-litre, 24-valve, supercharged V8 producing 617bhp, making it one of the most powerful engines ever found in a series-produced road-going sports car. Impressive though this peak horsepower figure is, it is the torque produced by this state-of-the-art 'blown' motor that is its most remarkable feature. The torque curve is almost flat: there is already 440lb/ft by 1,500 rpm and well over 500lb/ft between 3,000 and 5,000 revs. Needless to say, the SLR McLaren delivers performance figures that are still among the best in its class. Taking just 3.8 seconds to sprint from 0-100km/h (62mph), it passes the 200km/h (125mph) mark after 10.6 seconds, and from a standing start takes just 28.8 seconds to reach 300km/h (186mph). The two-seater has a top speed of 334km/h (207 mph). A 2007 model, the car offered here is an example of the '722 Edition', the '722' referring to the victory in the 1955 Mille Miglia of Stirling Moss and his co-driver Denis Jenkinson, whose Mercedes-Benz 300 SLR had the starting number '722' (indicating a start time of 7:22 a.m.). Invoiced to the current vendor in March 2007, the car is finished in stunning Crystal Antimon Grey Metallic with Silver Arrow leather trim in classic 300SL Red. Standard equipment includes an Audio 30 APS sound system; garage door opener; passenger compartment protection; and brake callipers painted in red; while a CD changer; Mercedes-Benz telephone; and 'XL' size front seats are among the factory options fitted. Offered with a copy of the purchase invoice, the car has been stored for some time (showing a mere 250km on the odometer) and will require re-commissioning before returning to the road.

1937 SS 100 Jaguar 2½-Litre Two-seater Sports Chassis no. 18050 Engine no. 250997•One of approximately 190 SS 100 2½-Litre models made•Present ownership since 2010•Restored to concours condition over the last 10 years•Featured in numerous publicationsFootnotes:Launched for 1936, the SS 100 was the first real high-performance model produced by SS Cars Limited and used a new Weslake-developed overhead-valve engine in a shortened SS 1 chassis. The introduction of the OHV unit was considered to justify the adoption of a new name for the series, SS Cars boss William Lyons later recalling 'I immediately pounced on Jaguar as it had an exciting sound to me'. ('Jaguar' would be adopted as the marque name in 1943, 'SS' having by then acquired a somewhat tarnished reputation).'SS' originally stood for the Swallow Sidecar & Coachbuilding Company, which had been founded in Blackpool, England by William Walmsley. The company branched out into motor manufacture in 1926, its first major success being an attractive sports saloon on the Austin Seven chassis, the design being the work of Walmsley's partner, one William Lyons. Relocation to Coventry followed and the Swallow range expanded to include models on Morris Cowley, Wolseley Hornet and Standard Sixteen chassis. Marque status arrived in October 1931 with the launch of the SS 1, the chassis of which was supplied exclusively to Swallow by Standard, who also provided the six-cylinder sidevalve engine and four-speed gearbox. Although unspectacular in performance, the SS 1 went some way towards establishing the pattern for future Jaguars, combining sporting good looks with a better-than-average specification and all at a bargain price. By the time the SS 90 sports car arrived in 1935, William Heynes had joined as Chief Engineer. Based on a shortened SS 1 chassis, re-engineered by Heynes, the SS 90 again demonstrated Lyons' consummate skill as a stylist, its long bonnet, smoothly flowing wings, cut-away doors and truncated tail making it every inch the epitome of the 1930s sports car. Although good for 90mph, the SS 90 was handicapped by the limitations of its sidevalve engine, a deficiency that would soon be rectified by another of Lyons' new recruits, gas-flow consultant Harry Weslake. Launched in 1936 alongside the 2½-Litre saloon, the SS 100 Jaguar sports car marked the company's first use of the 'Jaguar' name. Beautifully styled in the manner of its SS 90 predecessor, the newcomer employed a shorter, 102'-wheelbase chassis and a revised version of the 2,663cc Standard six which, equipped with Weslake's overhead-valve cylinder head and breathing through twin SU carburettors, now produced 104bhp. Although a fine touring car, the SS 100 was marketed as primarily for competition work. Its first major success came early, if somewhat unexpectedly, when Tommy Wisdom, crewed by his wife Elsie, won the arduous International Alpine Trial in 1936, beating Bugatti and bringing the fledgling marque to the attention of the Continental public. This would be the first of many successful rallying forays, including class wins in the RAC events of 1937 and 1938, and the Alpine (outright) again in 1948. Around 190 2½-Litre and 116 of the later 3½-Litre cars had been made by the time SS 100 production was prematurely ended by the outbreak of war.Chassis number '18050' was delivered by Henlys, Manchester to its first owner, Jack Harrop, in December 1936, that year's cars being the first to carry the 'Jaguar' name. Harrop entered the car in the 1937 RAC Rally, which he won, achieving the highest score among all the classes. The 1937 RAC Rally is on record as having some of the worst ever driving conditions, with heavy snowdrifts to battle through. That same year Harrop entered the Monte Carlo Rally and won the RSAC award for the top entrant from Scotland. At the time of delivery, the car went to Switzerland where Jack Harrop lived. He served as a fighter pilot in WW2 and sadly was killed in action. SS Jaguar Cars featured a picture of '18050' in their 1939 sales brochure under 'Sporting Success' (copy on file). '18050' is also featured with pictures in several motoring journals of 1937 including Speed magazine, some of which are in the accompanying file. There are also some action pictures taken of the car crossing the finishing line in Monte Carlo and during the rallies. '18050' is also featured in Andrew Whyte's book, SS 100 Super Profile. After the war the car ended up going to the USA, eventually ending up in the ownership of William Martin, a prominent SS 100 collector. In 1993 William sent the car back to the UK to be garaged by a friend for eventual restoration. However, the restoration never happened and the SS languished in the garage for the next 17 years until 2010, when William realised at the age of 80-plus years he was not going to get around to the restoration and decided to offer it for sale to the current vendor. William travelled to the UK from his California home to visit the vendor at his home to discuss the deal and proposals for the car's restoration. He was very keen that it should be a sympathetic restoration and needed to satisfy himself on this point before agreeing the sale. The restoration took 10 years to complete and included the following work:•Engine completely rebuilt by specialist (the block is endorsed with the SS 100 by the factory)•Gearbox rebuilt by a specialist, and a new propshaft made using the original yokes •Chassis medium-blasted and then hot zinc sprayed followed by three coats of specialist chassis paint•Ash body frame removed and all joints re-glued; gusset-strengthening ash built in; frame re-skinned; new plywood floors, all as original•Springs overhauled and new Silentbloc bushes fitted •Original Luvax shock absorbers overhauled and refitted; André Hartford shock absorbers replaced•Original brake shoes relined and all rods plated and refitted•Total electrical rewire using Autosparks (Lucas) wiring loom•All brightwork removed and refurbished (re-chroming undertaken by Derby Plating)•QK596 headlights restored by Vintage Headlight Restorations•Steering rack overhauled by Holman Engineering•Total interior re-trim with new leather throughout by restoration specialist John Foy using original trim patterns and detailing•New door cards, hood, tonneau cover, side screens and carpets. •All dashboard instruments overhauled and re-calibrated by a specialistThe repaint was undertaken by a specialist coachwork sprayer in the original SS colour of Maroon. The car sits on a set of new MWS wheels with New Zealand rims and Blockley tyres. With the car are the restored SS 100 jack, tools, and a starting handle. During the restoration the car was inspected and verified by David Davenport of Davenport Cars Ltd (specialist restorers of SS Jaguars from all around the world). Throughout the restoration the vendor emjoyed the help and support of some of the world's leading authorities on the SS marque: David Davenport, Alan Crouch, Jaguar Drivers' Club, Alan Gibbons, and from Australia John Clucas and Ed Nantes. The SS 100 was one of the fastest and best-handling sports cars of its day, as its competition record both before and after the war bears witness to. Representing a rare opportunity to acquire an historically significant example of the model that can be said to have started the Jaguar legend, '18050' is eligible for a wide variety of the most prestigious historic motor sports events.

1976 Aston Martin Lagonda Series 1 7.0-Litre Saloon Registration no. not UK registered Chassis no. L/12007/RCAC Engine no. V/540/2007•One of only eight made•Extensively upgraded by R S Williams Ltd•Stored since acquisition in 2008•Requires re-commissioningFootnotes:The Lagonda brand had been moribund for a decade when Aston Martin revived it in 1974 as the model name for a sensational new four-door saloon based on the existing two-door V8. A prototype ('MP/230/1') had been used by David Brown in 1969 but the project would not come to fruition until after his departure and Aston Martin's acquisition by Company Developments. Launched at the London Motor Show in October 1974, the new Lagonda was 305mm (12') longer in the wheelbase than the two-door V8 whose engine and running gear it shared and to which it bore an understandably strong resemblance. Priced at £14,040, including Purchase Tax, at the time of its launch, the Lagonda cost 24% more than the contemporary V8 and thus was one very expensive motor car. Unfortunately, the ongoing Middle East 'oil crisis' and other economic woes meant that the market for a 160-mph luxury saloon had declined sharply. An exclusive model even by Aston Martin standards, the Lagonda was catalogued until June 1976, by which time only seven had been made. Chassis numbers ranged from '12001' to '12007', while a further example - '12008' - was sanctioned later. Of the seven cars built in period, five were completed with automatic transmission and only two with the ZF five-speed manual gearbox, '12007', the car offered here, being one of them.In the early 2000s, '12007' was extensively re-engineered and enhanced by respected marque specialists R S Williams Ltd, and post-completion was featured in Octane magazine (Issue 7, 2004). The project took two people a year to complete, consuming 4,000 hours at an estimated cost of £100,000. Suitably and sympathetically modified for everyday use, the Lagonda incorporates the electronic communications systems required by the business user of the day; nevertheless, retaining originality was always an intention and all the modifications are reversible. Already a powerful car, the Lagonda was endowed with even greater urge courtesy of R S Williams' 7-litre conversion. The conversion places particular emphasis on torque, producing a substantial 550lb/ft and 480bhp against the estimated 350lb/ft and 320bhp of the 5.3-litre original, increases that more than offset the weight gain associated with the Lagonda's extra equipment. This in turn necessitated up-rating the Chrysler Torqueflite automatic transmission, which has replaced the original ZF manual 'box. The current vendor purchased the Lagonda at Bonhams' sale at Aston Martin Works Service in May 2008 (Lot 320). Kept in storage since then, the car will require re-commissioning before further use. Offered with copies of its Car Record Card and Middle Eastern registration document, '12007' represents an exciting opportunity to acquire an extensively upgraded example of one of the rarest and most exclusive of post-war Aston Martin products.Please note that if this vehicle is to remain in the UK, it will be subject to Import VAT at 5% on the hammer price to clear customs.
