Registration - VEL 632SChassis No - 14016M.O.T. - ExemptOdometer - 13,828 Examples of the Bertone-penned GT4 are a relatively rare sight at auction these days and, if this pretty 1978 example is anything to go by, it’s because their keepers have been hanging on to them – ‘VEL 632S’ has remained within the same ownership for no less than 28 years. A genuine righthand drive UK market example, it was apparently originally finished in yellow, but these days presents in the classic hue of Rosso Corsa that’s matched to Sand hide interior trim. We understand that the Prancing Horse has been dry stored for the last four years or so, prior to which it was treated to a service and a fresh set of engine belts. Along the way it has also been equipped with a pair of stainless-steel exhaust manifolds. The car is accompanied by every MOT carried out from 2006, documentation that gives credence to the notably low indicated total mileage of just 13,828. The vendor volunteers that the Ferrari would now benefit from a degree of paintwork and re-gassing of the air conditioning system. It comes complete with factory-fitted sunroof.Ferrari’s mould-breaking 308 GT4 was introduced at the Paris Salon in 1973. Originally marketed as a Dino, it didn’t, however, gain its Prancing Horse badges until 1976. It was the first production Ferrari to feature a mid-mounted V8 engine and the first to be clothed in Bertone-designed bodywork, the angular lines of which were a major departure from the sweeping curves of the Pininfarina-penned 246 that it replaced. The chassis was a stretched version of that used for the 246 – the combination of longer wheelbase and transversely mounted engine allowing room for a second (small) row of seats. The 3-litre light-alloy engine delivered 255bhp at 7600rpm – sufficient to endow the car with a top speed of over 150mph and a 0-60mph acceleration time of 6.4 seconds. It was mated to a traditional Ferrari ‘slotted gate’ five-speed gearbox mounted behind and beneath the engine. Production of the GT4 continued until 1980, when the model was replaced by the Mondial. Some 2,800 examples were made during the seven years of manufacture. In summary:Has remained in the current ownership for no less than 28 yearsMOT history seemingly backs ultra-low indicated mileage of 13,828Treated to new engine belts and a service four years ago

Registration - BX10 JEOChassis No. - SCBCK63W4BC067117M.O.T. - May 2024Odometer - 33,960 Please note -This lot is being re-offered due to a defaulting purchaserNow here’s a proper motorcar if ever there was one, as it’s a Supersports model from the original Continental GT range, and therefore the ultimate Bentley of its day. This particular example is resplendent in Pearlescent White that’s matched to suitably luxurious black leather trim, and rides on the correct 20-inch lightweight alloy wheels encased in Mr Pirelli’s ultra-high-performance P Zero tyres. According to Experian Autocheck, ‘BX10 JEO’ has had just four keepers to date, the most recent of whom has retained the car since 2018, so should therefore know it as well as anybody, and presently considers the mighty W12 engine, six-speed ZF Tiptronic automatic transmission, two-door coupe bodywork, paintwork and sumptuous upholstery to all be in ‘excellent’ order. Service history is paramount on a car of this nature, and this one is being sold with a complete record comprising 13 stamps, the last of which was dated as recently as April 25 this year. The odometer currently stands at a relatively modest 33,690 miles, meaning the six-litre engine should be in its absolute prime. The Continental Supersports made its debut at the 2009 Geneva Salon. It was the first Bentley capable of running on either petrol or biofuel. At the time of production it was also the most powerful and fastest model the company had ever produced, its 621bhp able to rocket the 4,938 lb leviathan to 60mph in around 3.5 seconds and on to a terminal speed north of 200mph. Among the car’s many high-tech attributes are: Torsen four-wheel drive with 40/60 rear-biased torque split; Continuous Damping Control; Bosch ESP with switchable Dynamic Mode; and carbonfibre-reinforced silicon carbide ceramic disc brakes. The cost new in 2010 would have been c.£163,000 before the addition of any options, which makes this extraordinary Bentley superlative value in today’s market. In summary:An immaculately presented example of a much-admired modelJust 33,690 miles and four keepers from newComes complete with a full service history and long MOT
Registration - K232 FYKChassis No - TBCM.O.T. - 09/2024Odometer - 84,000The vendor has apparently owned this cheeky 1993 Sprite for eight years. It was his first car, and we understand it to have been used regularly and well maintained but dry stored through the winter months. In recent times it has benefited from new front wings, rear valance, sills and wheels, and been resprayed in its original livery of Diamond White. The original interior has also received attention, with the centre console and facia having been renewed. The vendor admits the Mini has seen little use since the lockdown, but confirms that it’s a ‘reliable little car that does what it should’. He currently grades the engine, manual transmission, bodywork and upholstery as ‘excellent’, and the electrics and paintwork and tyres as ‘good’. It now seeks a new owner and is being offered complete with Sony radio/CD unit coupled to a separate amp and pair of parcel shelf-mounted speakers, its original handbook, pair of keys and a collection of old MOT certificates, plus a fresh one with 12 months to run. It is doubtful if any other model of car can match the classic Mini for the number of special editions it inspired. The Sprite was created in the autumn of 1983 in anticipation of the model’s upcoming 25th anniversary. It revived a name last used for the baby Austin-Healey back in 1971, and offered an intermediate level of trim between that of the Mini City on which it was based and the plusher Mini Mayfair. It was powered by the well-proven 998cc version of the A Series engine and initially offered in either Cinnabar Red or Primula Yellow matched to grey herringbone upholstery; though a number of other colours were later used. The Sprite rode on 5x10 inch Exacton alloy wheels and featured Mini Special wheel arch extensions, twin door mirrors, and 1275 GT instrumentation. The production run was 2,500 units. In summary:A tidy, well cared for specimen currently displaying 84,873 milesThe subject of a degree of recent bodywork restorationDeclared a Category D insurance write-off in August 2017
Registration - FHZ 2030Chassis No - 31807M.O.T. - ExemptOdometer - 75,500The sensuous curves of the 308 have aged well and this righthand drive 1980 GTS is an undeniably handsome stallion. It is finished in the classic combination of Rosso Corsa bodywork matched to Crema-coloured hide interior trim and a black Targa top, the overall effect of which is accentuated by the car’s Goodyear-shod split-rim alloy wheels. ‘FHZ 2030’ has remained in the care of the vendor for the last three years and benefited from a full service and change of engine belts in the last few weeks. He presently grades the five-speed manual transmission as ‘excellent’, the V8 engine and bodywork as ‘good’ and the paintwork and upholstery as ‘average’. The Ferrari is now being offered complete with its original tools, owner’s manual and service and warranty books, plus two A4 folders worth of history that includes a current MOT certificate valid for the next 12 months. The Pininfarina-penned 308 GTB debuted at the Paris Salon in 1975 as both a replacement for the Dino 246 and supplement for the Bertone-styled Dino 308 GT4 2+2. A notable departure for the early fixed roof 308s was the use of GRP for the bodywork and, while for some countries wet sump versions of the 2.9-ltre V8 engine were employed, European specification cars were fitted with dry sump units. The Targa-topped GTS was first seen at the 1977 Frankfurt Motor Show and, in common with its GTB sibling, then had its carburetted engine replaced by one with Bosch K-Jetronic fuel injection in 1980, giving rise to the GTSi and GTBi models respectively. By now the use of GRP for the fixed roof bodies had been dropped and both variants were clothed in steel. Production of the GTS version had totalled 3,219 cars by the time the model was replaced by the GTSi – the variant immortalised by Tom Selleck in his role as Magnum P.I. In summary:A handsome 13-owner example currently displaying 75,400 milesJust treated to a full service and renewal of the engine beltsComes with comprehensive history files and 12 months MOT
***NO RESERVE*Registration - FPU 628YChassis No - WF0AXXGCAACP83111M.O.T - August 2024Odometer - 89,806 ‘FPU 628Y’ was built in Saarlouis, Germany in August 1982 and first UK registered on October 1. It was acquired by the vendor, its second keeper, in January 1984, at which point the odometer registered 11,027 miles. He informs us that the Ghia has always been garaged and regularly home serviced throughout his tenure. Recent maintenance has included renewal of the engine belts and heater matrix and a brake overhaul at 88,030 miles – ie just 776 miles ago. Apparently the Escort was undersealed in PVC while in Germany and is ‘very solid underneath’. The vendor presently regards the 1.6-litre engine, five-speed manual gearbox (thought to be one of the first to be fitted to an Escort), five-door bodywork, Champagne Gold Metallic paintwork and mink fabric/brown velour upholstery to all be in ‘good’ condition. This fine Ford is now being offered complete with glass sunroof, Sharp radio/cassette, pair of auxiliary driving lights, large history file containing the vendor’s bill of sale, the original owner’s manual and an Escort operating guide. The third generation of Ford’s long-lasting Escort model ran from 1980 to 1986. Unlike the MKII which was essentially a reskin of the MKI, the MKIII was a major engineering and stylistic departure from its predecessors. The most significant changes were the adoption of front-wheel drive, an all-new hatchback body, and an equally fresh range of OHC ‘CVH’ engines in place of the long-serving OHV ‘Kent’ ones. Gone two were the cart springs on the rear, so the suspension was now independent all-round. By December 1982 the Escort had overtaken the ageing Cortina to become Britain’s best-selling car, a position it was to retain for eight consecutive years. In summary:A genuine, well cared for two-keeper 89,806-mile exampleComes with comprehensive history file and an MOT to August 2024Regularly home serviced and maintained as required
Registration - UTV 445HChassis No - AASAS630387AM.O.T. - ExemptOdometer - 42,400In common with Ford’s ubiquitous Cortina, the BMC multi-badged 1100/1300 model was once a top seller in the UK yet, according to the popular website ‘How Many Left’, there are currently only 314 Austin 1300 examples left in the UK, just 170 of which are licenced, of which ‘UTV 445H’ is one. Its vendor informs us that the car has recently been treated to a considerable degree of restoration and a full respray, and it certainly presents well with its fresh brown paintwork being complemented by tan leatherette upholstery. According to the driver’s door footplate the Austin was supplied new to its first keeper by Morkel and Carnill Ltd of Nottingham, and it was first registered on July 14, 1970. There have been a further five keepers since that time, but the vendor is satisfied that the total displayed mileage of 42,328 is correct, and presently considers the A Series engine, four-speed manual gearbox, four-door bodywork, paintwork and upholstery to all be in ‘excellent’ order. The car is now on offer complete with refurbished brake system, window etching, and stainless-steel wheels trims Owing to the overt success of the Mini, it made eminent sense to employ the same designer to create a successor for the larger Austin A40 and Riley 1.5. Codenamed ADO16, the newcomer launched with a Morris badge in August 1962 was therefore penned by Alec Issigonis, and echoed the Mini in having an ‘A’ Series engine mounted east-west up front, driving the front wheels. Its technical innovations included single-piston swinging caliper disc front brakes and a ‘Hydrolastic’ interconnected fluid suspension system. The appealing styling was the work of Carrozzeria Pininfarina which, with minor adjustments, went on to wear not only Morris but Austin, MG, Riley, Wolseley and Vanden Plas badges during the model’s 13-year reign, over which 2.1million examples were sold. In summary:A six-owner example currently displaying a credible 42,328 milesRecently treated to a degree of renovation and full resprayAll windows etched with the car’s registration number
Registration - RMU 706LChassis No - 136/8492M.O.T - April 2024Odometer - 67,000 ‘RMU 706L’ was registered to the first of its seven keepers on August 5, 1973. According to VDI Check, at the time the Jensen was finished in yellow and remained that way until 1988 when it was repainted in the current livery of blue bodywork matched to tan leather upholstery. The Interceptor entered its current ownership no less than 23 years ago, in whose care it has recently been treated to new water pump, brake discs and pads, steering rack and uprating of the radiator and fans. The car is considered by the vendor to have ‘excellent’ electrics, ‘good’ V8 engine, automatic transmission, bodywork and upholstery, and ‘average’ paintwork. The car is now seeking a fresh home and is being offered complete with Blaupunkt audio system and history file containing an assortment of invoices and old MOTs, plus a current certificate valid into April next year. Jensen’s striking replacement for the slant-eyed C-V8 first saw the light of day in 1966. It broke some of the firm’s established traditions in that the design was outsourced – to Carrozzeria Touring – and the bodies were made of steel rather than glass reinforced plastic. The early shells were also built in Italy, by Vignale, prior to a production line being established at Jensen’s plant in West Bromwich. Power was initially supplied by a 6,276 cc Chrysler V8, driving through either a four-speed manual or three-speed TorqueFlite automatic transmission to an LSD-equipped Salisbury rear axle. The MKII model of 1969 brought revised frontal styling and ventilated disc brakes. Introduced at the October 1971 Earl's Court Motor Show, the Interceptor III was visually distinguished by cast headlight surrounds, GKN cast alloy wheels and a comprehensively revamped interior and was produced in four Series – G, H, J and S4. By May 1972 the engines on RHD cars had been increased in capacity to a whopping 7,212cc. A total of some 6,408 Interceptors were produced between 1966 and 1976. These distinctive-looking Grand Tourers were bought by celebrities as diverse as Led Zeppelin drummer John Bonham, British Foreign Secretary Lord Carrington and World Motorcycle Champion Phil Read. In summary:A seven-keeper example currently registering 67,056 milesHas remained within the same ownership for no less than 23 yearsThe subject of recent mechanical maintenance
Registration - XRE 165GChassis - 129176M.O.T. - ExemptOdometer - 81 This immaculate-looking Dominator features the period-correct twin leading shoe front brake and cigar-shaped silencers, but benefits from a Boyer electronic ignition conversion. We understand that it spent its early years in Malta and was first UK registered when repatriated in 1994, since when it has had just three keepers, the most recent of whom has retained the bike for the last 10 years. He presently regards the engine, four-speed gearbox, frame, suspension, paintwork, brightwork and cycle parts as all being in ‘excellent’ condition, and informs us that the last service was caried out eight years ago by the acclaimed Norton specialist Pete Lovell.The 650SS (Sports Special) Dominator produced from 1962 to 1968 is considered by many to be the best of the Dommies. It combined a slimline version of the company’s immortal ‘Featherbed’ frame with a 646cc development of its proven Bert Hopwood-designed parallel twin engine. With an output of 49bhp, the SS had a top speed of 115mph-plus, and was therefore a good match for the rival Triumph Bonnevilles of the day.
Registration - R419 NDSChassis No - CP9A-0005024M.O.T. - September 2024Odometer - 111,487 Kms (69,274 Miles) Evos don’t come much smarter than ‘R419 NDS’. From its white OZ Racing alloy wheels to its cloth and Alcantara-covered Recaro seats the Lancer is pretty pin sharp. It was imported to the UK in 2021 by Guy Francis Specialist Cars and first registered on September 1 of that year. The vendor is the car’s third custodian since it arrived on these shores and would appear to have cherished it during his 11 months tenure, as the Mitsubishi is certainly presented in fine order. He informs us that it is basically a standard example that has been remapped and he has no hesitation in classing the turbo engine, five-speed manual gearbox, four-door bodywork, shiny white paintwork and grey and green upholstery as ‘excellent’. He is now selling the Lancer complete with a current MOT valid to September 5 next year, plus invoices and a service book relating to its UK-based maintenance, the last bout of which occurred in October last year. The odometer presently stands at 111,586 kilometers (69,336 miles). If you have been searching for an Evo V, then this handsome example must surely be worth a look. Mitsubishi’s Evo has been with us since 1992, during which time there have been 10 generations, each comprising a 2-litre turbocharged four-cylinder engine powering a four-wheel drive, four-door saloon. The EVO V reigned for exactly one year from January 1998 and brought a number of changes that included: flared arches front and rear, new adjustable alloy rear spoiler, 10mm increase in track, increase in wheel diameter from 16 to 17 inches in order to accommodate Brembo brakes, an increase in engine torque to 373Nm. Power output, however, remained the same at 276bhp. In summary:Imported to the UK in 2021, since when it’s had three keepersA very well-presented standard example that’s been remappedCurrently registering 111,586 kilometers (69,336 miles) from new Condition:
Registration - 731 PMTCassis No - HMA48075M.O.T. - ExemptOdometer - 74,400This decidedly smart-looking coupe was the subject of an older restoration that has clearly survived the test of time well, and helped one of the MG’s seven keepers to bag a box full of show-winning trophies, which come with the car. We understand that the previous keeper ‘searched high and low to find the best possible example’, and the vendor suggests he probably found it! He currently rates the bodywork, Chariot Red paintwork and red-piped black leather interior trim as ‘excellent’, and the 1500cc B Series engine and four-speed overdrive gearbox as ‘good’; and adds that the car ‘is a pleasure to drive and displays ample power, good brakes and smooth suspension’. This fine specimen is now being offered complete with a suitable history file, plus a fresh MOT valid for 12 months. The MOT history appears to support the modest indicated total mileage of 74,400. Though they were quite different to drive, the origins of the MG TF of 1953 lay in the TA of 1936. MG desperately needed a break with tradition. To quote the company’s own advertising, the MGA was the ‘first of a new line’. Launched at the Frankfurt Motor Show of 1955, it owed its modern streamlined design to the body Syd Enever created for George Philips’ 1951 Le Mans car. The newcomer featured a separate chassis penned by Roy Brocklehurst and was powered by the 1,489cc straight-four BMC B Series engine, as used in the MG Magnette saloon. Suspension was independent with coil springs at the front and featured a live axle hung on semi-elliptic leaf springs at the rear. Braking was by Lockheed drums all round. Steering was by rack and pinion, and the car was available with either steel disc or wire wheels. The engines of the early cars produced 68bhp, but this was soon raised to 74bhp. According to a period test by The Motor, this was sufficient to power the newcomer to 60mph in 16 seconds and on to almost 100mph. Both roadster and coupe versions were offered, a total of some 58,750 were produced before a facelifted model with 1,588cc engine was introduced in May 1959. In summary:A very well-presented seven-keeper, 74,400-mile exampleThe subject of an older restoration that’s stood the test of time wellComes with a box full of show-winning trophies and a fresh MOT
Registration - H595 WYGChassis No - TBCM.O.T - June 2024Odometer - 80,962 This handsome S3 has remained in the same ownership for the last 19 years. The vendor informs us that it is an unmolested matching numbers, home market example that has been serviced during every year of his tenure – the last bout of maintenance was carried out in February of this year. The TVR’s totally original white bodywork is matched to blue leather interior trim and blue hood and Targa top, and the vendor presently considers the V6 engine, five-speed manual gearbox, two-seater bodywork, paintwork and upholstery to all be in ‘excellent’ condition. He is offering the car complete with a file containing some service history, an assortment of bills and receipts and all its old MOTs, plus a current one valid to June 25 next year. The odometer currently displays an unwarranted but totally credible 80,962 miles from new. TVR’s S Series line of sports cars made its debut at the 1986 British International Motor Show and marked the first major milestone for Peter Wheeler since taking over the company from Martin Lilley. S1 variants are now extremely rare and powered by 160bhp versions of Ford’s 2.9-litre V6 powerplant, whereas S2-S4 models had the benefit of an extra 10bhp courtesy of basically the same engine. (Most) S3 and S4 cars benefited from longer doors, while S3s were unique in having traditional-looking burr walnut facias. There was also a V8 version of the S that was powered by either a 2.0-litre (yes really) or 4.0-litre derivative of the ubiquitous Rover engine. S Series production ran from 1986 to 1994 and comprised a total of 2,604 cars, 1,194 of which were equipped with one form or another of the V6 Ford engine, and 410 with the Rover V8. In summary:An apparently very original, unmolested S3A 10-keeper example currently displaying 80,962 milesHas remained in the current ownership for the last 19 years
Registration - G253 YDV Chassis No - ZFFWA20C000081819M.O.T - August 2024Odometer - 55,914 Please note, the registration number "484 BAM", as shown in the photos, is going on retention so is not included in the saleThis fine-looking 328 was supplied new to its first owner on August 5, 1989 by Stratstones of Wilmslow. Since then there have been a further seven keepers, the most recent of whom was gifted the Ferrari by his father 19 years ago. The car’s fully documented service history comprises 10 stamps up to 47,990 miles, followed by cambelt changes at 50,254, 53,526 and 55,784 miles, since when the Prancing Horse has covered just 132 miles. The vendor presently has no hesitation in confirming that the car’s V8 engine, five-speed manual gearbox, bodywork, Rosso Corsa paintwork and Crema hide interior upholstery are all in ‘excellent’ condition. The Ferrari is accompanied by a large history file containing assorted paperwork and old MOTs dating back to 1994, plus a current certificate valid for the next 12 months. The shapely 328 GTB and GTS were direct and relatively mild developments of the Pininfarina-penned 308 GTB and GTS, the most notable change from which was an increase in capacity from 2.9 to 3.2 litres for the V8 powerplant. The subtly restyled bodies were still largely hand-built for Ferrari by Scaglietti, while the interior was given a slightly more contemporary feel. The only major running change throughout the 328’s reign was the provision of an anti-lock braking system for the car’s ventilated discs. Production of the model ran from 1985 to 1989, and by the time it was replaced by the 348 in 1989 a total of 7,412 examples had been created – 6,068 GTSs and 1,344 GTBs; a ratio of almost 5:1 in favour of the Targa-topped GTS. With some 270bhp on tap, the slightly heavier 328 GTS could still sprint to 60mph in 5.9 seconds and on to a terminal speed of c.163 mph. In summary:A fine eight-keeper, 55,916-mile exampleGifted to the vendor as a wedding present from his father in 2004Comes with documented service history and a full year’s MOT
Registration - XJW 470GChassis No - 2064025M.O.T. - August 2024Odometer 62,154 The Fiat 500 packed a huge amount of Italian flair into a tiny package and, with its smart dark blue paintwork and black-piped ochre-coloured trim, ‘XJW 470G’ is a pleasing example of Italy’s much adored ‘people’s car’. First UK registered on June 24, 1969, this nimble little right-hand-drive motorcar has recently undergone a sympathetic restoration that included a full respray and new trim, while the underside was freshened up and finished in black. Its steel wheels sport quality Pirelli tyres, and the flip-back fabric sunroof allows driver and passengers to make the most of fine days. Accident damage caused the Fiat to be declared a CAT S insurance write-off in 2020 but, following the installation of a new rear quarter and much recent expenditure, ‘XJW 470G’ is now ready to share its undoubted charisma with a new owner. MOT records show that the car has covered just 1,000 miles in the past decade and confirm the total indicated figure of 62,154. The vendor describes the car’s all-round condition as ‘excellent’ and he believes that the four-speed gearbox is a later all synchromesh example. In the post-war austerity of the 1950s there was a race to develop small cars that required less steel to build and less fuel to run. Germany had already led the way with the Beetle, in France Citroën was not far behind with the 2CV and the UK was soon to develop the Mini. In Italy, Fiat gave its Lead Engineer Dante Giacosa broadly the same brief, and he met it with arguably the most stylish design of all the new compact cars. In July 1957 the Nuova 500 was born, meeting Fiat’s requirement to seat four adults in (relative) comfort while utilising a shell that was less than 10’ long. Echoing the VW Beetle, its 479cc engine was rear-mounted. The specification of the first incarnation included a full-length fabric foldable roof and ‘suicide’ doors. The 500D, introduced in 1960, featured a smaller sunroof and an uprated 499cc engine producing 17bhp, while the 500F of 1965 had front-hinged doors. In summary:A recently-restored example of an ever-popular Italian classicNew paintwork and trim in an attractive colour combinationJust 1,000 miles covered since 2013
Registration - J537 KAEChassis No - ZAM333B28AKALA190259M.O.T. - June 2024Odometer - 91,910 Please note, the registration number "D4 DAB", as shown in the photos is not included in the sale.This handsome righthand drive, matching numbers Biturbo is thought to be one of just 11 examples remaining, and is presented in fine order. Its strident red bodywork is matched to plush cream-coloured hide upholstery that’s highlighted by pale veneer trim on the facia, doors and console, and complemented by a black hood and silver alloy wheels. The vendor, the Maserati’s seventh keeper, acquired the car from a dealer in April last year, and he currently considers its twin-turbo V6 engine, automatic transmission, convertible bodywork, paintwork and upholstery to all be in ‘excellent’ condition, and confirms that the hood is in good working order. He informs us that the Biturbo was last serviced in April 2020, and is now offering this rare Italian beauty complete with Pioneer stereo unit, full service history, owner’s book pack, a large selection of bills and receipts, and a current MOT certificate valid to June 14 next year. The Biturbo was a family of executive grand touring cars produced by Maserati between 1981 and 1994 – the architecture of the model also served as the basis of all the company’s offerings between 1981 and 1987, including the Shamal and Ghibli II. The layout of the Biturbo was relatively conventional, with the engine and gearbox mounted up front and driving the rear wheels and its unibody constructed from steel. The 90-degree V6 powerplant was the first production unit to feature a pair of turbos and was made in a variety of capacities from 1996 to 2790cc – the latter version, as fitted to the sale car, had an output of some 225bhp. The convertible version of the Biturbo was lunched at the 1985 Turin Motor Show and was designed and assembled by Zagato in Milan. In summary:One of the few remaining righthand drive examplesSeven keepers and a documented 91,910 miles from newComes complete with full service history and a current MOT
Registration - H17 0MAChassis No - SAXXNNBYCBD077784M.O.T. - 06/2024Odometer - 42,000According to VDI Check this exceedingly smart cabriolet began life in Northern Ireland before returning to the mainland and being first DVLA registered in June 1994. The vendor apparently acquired the car from the marque specialist GC Minis of Swanley in Kent some five years ago. He believes that ‘H17 OMA’ is now one of only 42 such cabriolets remaining in the world, so a very rare car indeed. He informs us that its has always been dry stored and serviced every year during his tenure. Its resplendent Nightfire red bodywork is matched to a red hood, red-piped cream leather interior trim, and complemented by the polished set of Revolution alloy wheels on which it rides. The vendor presently classes the four-speed manual transmission, convertible bodywork and upholstery as ‘excellent’, and the 1300cc A Series engine and paintwork as ‘good’. He is now selling the Mini complete with Mountney wood-rim steering wheel, stereo system, spare wheel, toolkit, and a sizeable history folder containing the original book pack, receipts, tax discs and selection of old MOTs, plus a current advisory-free one valid into August next year. The odometer currently registers an unwarranted but totally credible total of 42,000 miles. The story of the Mini convertible began with Lamm Autohous of Achern, Germany, who began creating their own version during the 1980s. In 1991 Rover contracted the company to build 75 righthand drive prototypes for sale through 12 selected Rover dealers. The success of this project led to Rover’s own version that was launched at the NEC in 1992.

The vast majority of recipients of the Gold Close Combat Clasp wore the everyday version made of zinc, which is the primary reason for some of the tombac examples being found today in very good condition. Our piece has been worn by the recipient but still has 95% of it's original gilding and is in outstanding condition. Since the Gold Combat Clasp was awarded only for personal valor with a minimum of 50 close combat days it was held in the highest esteem by all soldiers. It is representing the highest Infantry award. A superb example of this prestigious award in excellent condition. One of the few originals and of outstanding rarity.

Deutsches Reich 1933 - 1945 - Kriegsmarine : Fahnenspitze für Standarten der KriegsmarineVergoldete Leichtmetallausführung. Auf der Unterseite der Hülse Herstellerzeichen "BILDGIESSEREI KRAAS BERLIN S42". Dazu originale Litze aus vergoldeten Metallfäden mit Spuren der originalen Benagelung. Die erste Truppenfahne, die an eine landgestützte Marineeinheit im Dritten Reich verliehen wurde, übergab man am 14. September 1936 während des 8. Reichsparteitags der NSDAP in Nürnberg der entsprechenden Einheit. Derartige Marine-Truppenfahnen wurden zu verschiedenen Zeitpunkten an Verbände von Marine-Artillerie-Bataillonen, landgestützten Marine-Stamm-Verbänden sowie diversen Marine-Schulen übergeben. Von den Standarten der deutschen Kriegsmarine scheint sich kein einziges Originalexemplar erhalten zu haben, da sie auf Befehl der Marineleitung vernichtet wurden, um nicht dem Feind in die Hände zu fallen. Die hier angebotene Fahnenspitze ist eines der ganz wenigen heute noch vorhandenen Zeugnisse dieser Regimentsstandarten. Einwandfreies Original mit zweifelsfrei alter Vergoldung. Fahnenspitze von allergrößter Seltenheit und musealer Bedeutung. The Third German Reich 1933 - 1945 - Navy : Kriegsmarine Standard Pole TopGold-plated light metal version. Manufacturer's mark "BILDGIESSEREI KRAAS BERLIN S42" on the underside of the hilt. Original braid of gilded metal threads with traces of the original nailing. The first troop flag (standard) awarded to a land-based naval unit in the Third Reich was presented to the corresponding unit on 14 September 1936 during the 8th Reich Party Congress of the NSDAP in Nuremberg. Such naval troop flags were handed over at various times to units of naval artillery battalions, land-based naval regular units as well as various naval schools.Not a single original example of the German Kriegsmarine standards appears to have survived, as they were destroyed on the orders of the naval command to avoid falling into the hands of the enemy.The flag pole top offered here is one of the very few surviving parts of these regimental standards today.Flawless original with undoubtedly authentic gilding.A highly important museum quality historical item of the utmost rarity.
