Lot 301

Registration No: J910 CVG Frame No: ZDM8885S000662* Engine No: 00718 CC: 888 MOT: NoneAmazingly presented and collectable limited edition 851 SP3Authentically restored to 'as new' condition at great expenseSupplied with photos of the restoration, manuals and a V5CDucati was established in 1926 by Antonnio Ducati and his sons, initially producing electrical components. After WW2 they moved into motorcycles with the Cucciola, essentially a pushbike with a clip-on engine. By the 60s they had become associated with performance bikes selling a range of sporty 250 and 350 singles. In response to the demand for larger capacity bikes, chief engineer Fabio Taglioni designed the classic V Twin bevel drive engine first used in the 1971 GT750. This proved to be an immediate success, helped considerably by Paul Smart's win in the 1972 Imola 200 race. This started a tradition of race-winning V-twins that have gone on to dominate World Superbike racing over the years with models such as the 851, 888, and 916. In the early 1990s, Ducati started a tradition of producing limited editions of the previous year's race bikes, partly to get around homologation rules but also to give riders the ultimate in superbike performance. The 851 SP3 was built to celebrate Raymond Roche's win in the 1991 championship and to form the basis of the bike that Doug Polen went on to dominate proceedings over the next 2 years.This SP3 is presented in absolutely amazing condition and to use much abused, but in this case correct term, 'must be seen to be appreciated'. Bought new in October 1991 it has been serviced at 1000, 3000, 4768, 5294, 8517, 11860, 16992, 22534 and 26880 kms between then and 2003 by various recognised Ducati specialists. It was then restored at great expense with the intention of putting it back to good as new condition, with much of the work being carried out by the experts at Ducati Coventry, and has seen very little use since. Whilst there are a few photos showing the bike being worked on in their workshops, unfortunately the bills had to be 'lost' before the previous owner's wife discovered how much was actually being spent! The attention to detail and quality of the work is fantastic. The bike has been carefully dry stored in a protective bubble as part of an enthusiast's private collection for the last few years so would need some recommissioning before use. It comes supplied with a Ducati paddock stand, its original owner's manual, service book, some receipts, a few old MOTs and a current V5C.

Registration No: FTO 832C Frame No: TV3 551235 Engine No: TV/2 553434 CC: 198 MOT: ExemptOne owner from newRegistered new on 8th November 1963 in NottinghamBuff logbook and full historyFull original keys for ignition, steering lock and tool boxOn DVLA system for use on UK roadsThe Lambretta TV175 Series 3 was launched in March 1962 and it was the first scooter supplied with an internal disc brake. It was a remarkable change from the previous TV175 Series 2 with new sleek slim styling. The front shock absorbers were enhanced with extra dampers as in the previous TV Series 2 models. The TV series 3 also had larger silent blocks than the previous engines and it had a very good reputation as a smooth and well-balanced scooter with great handling attributes. The larger-engined TV200 quickly followed the TV175 slim style in early 1963 at the specific request of the British importer Lambretta Concessionaires who wanted an even more powerful model than the TV175 to satisfy their customer base. Genuine TV200 Lambrettas were instantly recognised as the GT200 to differentiate them from the TV175 models. The first versions had Li style panels and the later versions had SX-type panels with polished flashes and were often sold with a coloured top on the panel.This extremely original later example of a genuine GT200 was sold new by Horace Rogers Ltd of Nottingham to our vendor's father on the 10th November 1965. It was used by his father with mother as pillion up until the early 1980s with a now 16116 miles on the clock when they had a spill and it was never ridden again and stored in a dry garage until now. It was however MOT’d and taxed annually until 1988. As far as purity is concerned a GT200 stated as that on the first buff logbook (as opposed to TV200) and with fibreglass mudguard from new and the whole scooter is in such original untouched condition. The paint all over is as it was when sold with Gold highlighted panels with no visible touch-ups that we could see and the running in transfer is still visible inside the leg shields. The exception is the visible dent from the accident on the front and the replacement lower headset repaired at the time. The scooter still has its original ULMA/Nannucci accessory rear rack it was sold with and Ulma rubber carpet which is quite perished now. Under the floor mat the floor is in excellent condition as see in the photographs. There is also an accessory fuel gauge in gallons as sold by Lambretta Concessionaires and an ULMA wheel disc in amongst a large amount of spare parts and genuine tools. Spare cables, plugs and bulbs were in the toolbox showing a well-used and loved scooter while on the road. One side panel has an ingenious device as a lever which looks like a classic car handle but it works and shows that this was a used and loved machine while on the road. Everything else appears to be original. The scooter also comes with a selection of genuine manuals including the first edition of the official Lambretta Workshop manual. There are many parts supplied that were found with the scooter including the original TV200 rear frame badge and disc brake windows. Also, the helmet used back in the day and rider’s gauntlets. No attempt was made to start the scooter. It is a lovely precious item and we expect some serious interest in this scooter.

Registration No: Unregistered Frame No: 5JD 19623 Engine No: 5JD 19623 CC: 150 MOT: ExemptThe Sportique Supreme is one of the rarest British built Vespa Douglas modelsOne of the last ever models produced by Douglas in BristolOriginal paint under the overpaintOriginal matching numbersOriginal Green logbook for simple UK registrationThe first time a Vespa was seen in Great Britain was on the Douglas stand at the 1949 Motor Cycle Show. The scooter was discovered by Douglas managing Director Claude McCormack when the struggling company was in the hands of the official receiver. The Vespa presented itself as a solution to the companies problems and a deal was made with Piaggio to begin production of the Vespa under licence in Britain starting with the ‘Rod model’ launched in March 1951. Piaggio soon regretted this decision and consequently Douglas under-performed and was several years behind the Italian models until the late 1950’s when parity was almost made. The result in today’s international collectors market is that British built Douglas Vespas have in recent times emerged with a special rarity status.The Supreme was one of three special edition Sportiques made by Douglas in Bristol. The Sportique itself was almost identical to the Piaggio VBB with a reliable 150cc motor using many Piaggio supplied Italian parts and sporting an attractive GS style clam shaped 60 MPH speedometer. The ‘Grand Luxe’ ‘Grand Tourer’ and ‘Supreme’ were all unique designs built from 1962 to 1965. The Supreme was supplied in bespoke silver paint with chrome side panels and front mudguard from new in keeping with the ‘Mod’ demand at the time.This Supreme was originally registered in Taunton, Somerset on 20th April 1964. A new keeper in 1974 a Thomas Cole from Bath and then a John Lewis of Radstock. It has obviously been overpainted but some effort has been made to reveal the original paint and this could be continued. The result could potentially be a unique patina. The chrome panels are still showing some chrome evidence and a similar outcome could be achieved. It is evident that the scooter has had a sidecar fitted in its life and the top fitting bracket is still attached. There is one hole in the floor where the lower sidecar bracket would have been. Other than that it is very solid generally all over. There is a high level of originality including: Douglas D handgrips, original speedometer, lights are original, seat and badges. The front Douglas badge is also original and just needs the remaining overpaint scraped off. The cylinder head and exhaust are missing however there are some parts supplied and replacement parts for these engines are not difficult to source. This is an extremely worthwhile project and a very rare machine. For more information, please contact: Paul Diamond info@vintagescooters.co.uk 07768 313001

Shane Warne & Muttiah Muralitharan signed Limited Edition Lithograph with COA This absolutely stunning item of signed Cricket Memorabilia a striking action lithograph that takes you on a photographic and factual journey through Shane Warne and Muttiah Muralitharan's continuing battle to become the world's greatest wicket taker. Personally signed by both spinners and independently authenticated and certified by the major chartered accounting firm PricewaterhouseCoopers, 'Record Pursuit' is available in a strictly limited edition of 350Officially licensed by Cricket Australia and Sri Lanka Cricket, each are individually numbered and measure in at a large and impressive 650mm by 450mmRivals, friends, headline-makers and two of the world's greatest bowlers, Shane Warne and Muttiah Muralitharan will remember 2004 as a watershed in their colourful careers, with both spinners passing 500 Test wickets and continuing their 'battle' to become the world's greatest-ever wicket taker Their race to be the first spin bowler to take 500 wickets was a classic ' cat and mouse' struggle during Australia's 3-Test series in Sri Lanka in March 2004. After a well-publicised and determined duel, Warne was victorious, taking wicket number 500 on March 12, during the 1st Test in Galle. By the end of the tour, the ledger read: Warne 517 wickets, Muralitharan 513 - with West Indian great Courtney Walsh's world record of 519 wickets ready to be broken It was Muralitharan who first claimed that illustrious 'crown', passing Walsh's record during Sri Lanka's Test series against Zimbabwe in May 2004. The champion off-spinner set a new world record when he captured his 520th wicket in the 1st Test in Harare on May 8. Muralitharan then dismissed a further seven Zimbabwean batsmen in the series to take his tally to 527. Shane Warne's quest to overhaul Muralitharan in the world wicket-taking began in the two-Test series against Sri Lanka in Darwin and Cairns in July. Warne took 3 wickets in the 1st Test in Darwin to move within reach of Muralitharan, before equalling his world record mark with a sensational haul of 7 wickets in the 2nd Test in Cairns! Warne held the record until it was broken by Muralitharan on December 3, 2007A superb item of Cricket Memorabilia to celebrate the two statistically greatest Bowlers of all time!
