A 1955 BSA C10L, registration number UTC 959, green. When the C10 reappeared after the WWII, its oil was no longer contained in a fuel tank compartment but in a separate tank bolted to the saddle tube. The girder forks were replaced by a telescopic items in 1946 and part way through 1949 an alloy cylinder head was adopted. The model ran on as an updated C10L, with alternator electrics, plunger rear suspension and four speed gearbox until its production demise in 1957. This charming C10L is presented in good condition and has been well maintained and improved by the current owner. This has included rebuilding the carburettor, replacing the clutch and numerous other consumables. The machine will be offered for auction with a history file.

A 1978 Cotton 250cc LCRS ex junior TT road racer, unregistered, red. This rare Cotton works bike is one of three that competed at the 1978 Isle of Man TT races where it finished 38th in the junior TT ridden by Ron Haslam finishing in a time of 2 hours 8 minutes and 55.4 seconds at an average speed of 87.79 mph. The bike was subsequently sold to John Baker who rode the road racer until the mid 1980s where upon the machine went into storage. It was purchased by our vendor in 2004. On acquiring the Cotton it was found to be in a sorry state and a full restoration was carried out, including a rebuild of the water cooled Rotax engine and six speed gearbox. Since completing the restoration the vendor has used the Cotton on various parade laps at classic motorcycle meetings where it has always been admired. No accompanying paperwork See illustrations

A 1967 Austin-Healey BJ8 3000 MK III, KBV 829F, a four speed manual gearbox with overdrive, finished in Healey blue, with an Ambla blue trim, walnut dashboard and a blue hood, on wire wheels. The car has a current MOT expiring on 4th September 2018 and is presented in good overall condition, save one small area of rust to the lower nearside rear wing behind the wheel and two professionally repaired sections to the lower rear wings behind both doors, awaiting a final top coat of paint. A file of maintenance receipts provides further historical detail to a much cherished car. The BJ8 Mark III 'Big Healey' was manufactured between 1964-1967. This car is a late example, registered in February 1967 and is supplied with a Heritage certificate, no 89/2929, which states that the car was originally supplied to North America as LHD, finished in Healey Blue with Ambla blue trim and on wire wheels. The car remains in original colour and specification with original engine and chassis numbers, but not with an adjustable steering column or white wall tyres as stated on the heritage certificate and clearly changed to RHD following importation to the UK in on 19th May 1990. History: The Austin-Healey 3000 Mark III was announced in February 1964. The power increased from 136 bhp to 150 bhp with the fitting of a new higher lift camshaft and SU HD8 carburettors, increasing the choke size from 1.75 to 2 inches. Power-assisted braking became standard instead of optional and the Mark III car's fascia displayed its speedometer and tachometer directly in front of the driver, together with new Ambla blue vinyl upholstery and wind-up windows. The production of Mark III BJ8s finished at the end of 1967. A recently ordered door card requires fitting to the drivers door and some small areas of paintwork are required to finish an otherwise very nice motorcar.

c.1930s Morgan Three Wheeler- c.1930s Morgan Three-Wheeler restoration project with Matchless V-Twin engine and Super Sports-style body - Abandoned on the vendor's farm over twenty years ago - Offered for sale at no reserve and without documentation This Morgan Three-Wheeler has lain unclaimed on the vendor's farm for over twenty years. The number plate it wears - 'APH 322' - is still recorded on the DVLA and HPi databases but is associated with the chassis number 'D363'. Whereas, the number visible on its torque tube seems to read either '89' or '68'. Thus, it is possible that this lot has no claim to the registration number 'APH 322' especially as chassis 'D363' began life as a Family (4-seater) model. By contrast chassis '89' was built as a Sports (2-seater) model. The Morgan Three Wheeler Club have told us they would support an application to the DVLA for chassis '89' (or chassis '68') to be allocated an age-related registration number provided that the Morgan was 'rebuilt with appropriate period parts'. In need of extensive restoration, the Three-Wheeler appears to be fitted with a water-cooled Matchless V-twin engine (MX2/673) and separate three-speed manual gearbox. Sporting a `barrel back' body, it is self-evidently incomplete. Nevertheless, this 'barn find' Morgan has the makings of a worthwhile project. Offered for sale with sundry spares but no documentation. PLEASE NOTE: Since the catalogue went to press we have been contacted by Martyn Webb, the Morgan Motor Company's archivist with the following information: 'The description that you have given is mostly correct although the engine number quoted (MX2/673) is for an air-cooled overhead-valve Matchless, whereas the engine illustrated has water-cooled barrels, (MX2 was air-cooled, MX4 was water-cooled), so it would seem that the engine has been altered in the past. According to our chassis records; MX2673 was originally fitted to chassis number D1704 which was a Super Sports model, despatched on 11th November 1936 to Jordan & Co, the Morgan dealer in Hull. 'APH 322' is a Surrey registration, so it is unlikely that this was originally allocated to chassis D1704. The body is a Super Sports model from the mid-1930s, so it may be that the engine is original to the body, albeit fitted with water-cooled barrels'. PLEASE NOTE: The Morgan Three-Wheeler Club have recently been in touch to say that they do not think this lot has a claim to the registration number 'APH 322', the corresponding logbook for which was apparently sold on eBay in 2006.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.

1918 Austin Twenty EXP1 Prototype Tourer- The very car that Edgar Wren drove nationwide to drum up orders for Austin's upcoming 20hp model- Rescued from a hedgerow as a rolling chassis and treated to an extensive restoration during the 2000s- Featured in numerous publications: The Autocar (1918), The Austin Advocate (1919) and The Automobile (2009)Herbert Austin was nothing if not ambitious. By the outbreak of the First World War the company that bore his name was Britain's fifth largest motorcar manufacturer. However, the firm with which he had begun his motoring endeavours, Wolseley, was the biggest. Accepting government contracts for aircraft, shells, heavy artillery and 3-ton lorries saw the Austin Motor Company prosper during WW1 and its workforce expand from 2,500 to 22,000. Sensing an opportunity to leapfrog his rivals and taking a leaf from Henry Ford's book, Herbert Austin decided to offer just a single model when peace returned. Hugely impressed by the Hudson Super Six he ran during the hostilities - an example of which had successfully completed the first two-way transcontinental trip from New York to San Francisco and back in 1916 - he challenged his designers to create a similarly well-engineered machine. The first prototype Austin Twenty began to take shape in the chassis erecting shop at Longbridge during 1917 and an abridged specification was published in that September's issue of The Austin Advocate magazine. Like the Hudson Super Six, the newcomer featured a substantial ladder frame chassis equipped with all-round semi-elliptic leaf-sprung suspension, rear wheel brakes, an engine of monobloc construction with in-unit, centre-change gearbox and a sheet metal radiator cowl. Displacing 3610cc, its unstressed sidevalve four-cylinder engine developed 40bhp @ 2,000rpm (an output sufficient for Austin to later warrant that the chassis could reach 70mph). Eminently tuneable, privateer Felix Scriven's `Sergeant Murphy' and the Works' `Black Maria' both proved that an Austin Twenty could beat a Bentley 3 Litre or Vauxhall 30/98 in competition (Scriven's mount reaching 104mph at Brooklands).Labelled P1's (with `P' signifying Post War), two prototype Austin Twenties were readied for 1918, a Landaulette and a Tourer. Road registered as `OB 6912', the latter sported a commodious four-door, five-seater body with a prominent hood well and internal storage for two spare wheels. With dreams of producing 25,000 cars a year (a gargantuan increase on the 3,000 that Wolseley had managed in 1914), Herbert Austin despatched Works test driver Edgar Wren on a nationwide trip aboard `OB 6912' to drum-up interest. With a projected price of just £495 for the Tourer, and thanks also to the efforts of sales organiser Alfred Dupuis who travelled the Commonwealth and was reliant merely on photos and specification sheets, Austin had attracted some £6,000,000 worth of orders by July 1919. Unfortunately, the company could not fulfil them. The government tax on excess war profits meant that Herbert Austin could not afford to fully equip his expanded factories and the awful carnage of World War One had resulted in a severe shortage of skilled labour. Without the hoped-for economies of scale, Austin found itself losing money on every Twenty sold and thus had to introduce a `temporary surcharge' of £100 per car in October 1919. Things went from bad to worse with the global economic slump of 1920-1921 and by December that year Austin was in receivership. The company famously bounced back with the Twelve and Seven models and the Twenty remained in production until December 1929 by which time some 15,287 had been made. Famously long-lived, it was not unheard of for a Twenty to cover in excess of 1,000,000 miles. Indeed, the motoring historian and long-term Twenty owner Mike Worthington-Williams has suggested that the model is `the hardest wearing machine of all time'. Presumed lost for many years, `OB 6912' was re-registered with the DVLA on August 2nd 1983. A rolling chassis when found, it was treated to an extensive `ground up' restoration during the 2000s with replacement parts being sourced or made as necessary. Using period photos as a guide the car's Tourer coachwork was painstakingly recreated and fitted with such niceties as an Auster screen, fold-out occasional seats and deep-button Black leather upholstery. There can be comparatively few cars that have been featured in magazine articles ninety-one years apart but as well as gracing the pages of The Autocar in November 1918 and The Austin Advocate in July 1919, `OB 6912' was the subject of a four-page article in The Automobile for August 2009. Described by the vendor as being in `excellent overall' condition with regard to its engine, gearbox, electrical equipment, interior trim, bodywork and paintwork, he succinctly sums-up `OB 6912' as `a true piece of British motoring history'.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.

1934 Lagonda Rapier Tourer- 1 of just 470 made- Well maintained and improved over the last 30 years- An ideal entry to the world of prewar motoring and said to be in beautiful conditionIntroduced at the 1933 Olympia Motor Show, the Lagonda Rapier featured a notably advanced 1104cc DOHC four-cylinder engine that developed 50bhp @ 5,400rpm. Prohibitively expensive to manufacture, the model was dropped when Lagonda went into administration during 1935. Revived by the aptly-named Rapier Cars Ltd of Hammersmith, the new concern contributed a further 46 cars to the total production tally of 470 before folding in 1938. First registered in Belfast on 31st December 1934 (or so its 'CZ 7070' number plate would imply), this particular example - chassis D11284 - is known to have belonged to Terence Riggs Esq. of Havant some forty years later. Subsequently owned by well-known Lagonda Rapier Register member Mr Harold Fox of Buckinghamshire (1990-2002) and Mr Alan Croft of Surrey, the Tourer has more recently formed part of the Donington Park Collection. Reportedly treated to an engine and gearbox overhaul by acknowledged marque specialist I&J MacDonald during 1994-1995 and a bare metal respray by Metcalfe & Rosedale of Bedfordshire in 2000, the latter is understood to have involved five coats of primer and five of topcoat, prior to which parts of the ash body frame had been replaced and new front wings and running boards fabricated. At the same time the interior was re-trimmed in Connolly hide and Wilton carpeting, and some re-chroming carried out. Other components refurbished include the starter motor, dynamo, carburettors and magneto (the latter most recently in 2013) while the wiring has been replaced and an original Brooklands-style steering wheel fitted. Weather equipment consists of a double duck hood and full tonneau. Described by the vendor as being in 'beautiful condition', he goes on to say that 'this easy to handle vehicle is an ideal entry to prewar motoring'. Offered for sale with UK V5C Registration Document, period brochure, instruction book and large history file containing numerous invoices.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.

1987 Ford Sierra RS500 Cosworth- First registered to Ford's competition department & 23,100 miles from new - Presented in the livery of the Texaco Eggenberger car raced in 1987 by Klaus Ludwig and Klaus Niedwiedz - Current ownership since 2007 and build number 007 - Offered with a collection of old MOT certificates, sundry paper work, original service book plus sales brochure This very interesting fast Ford, build number 007, is one of just 500 righthand drive RS500 homologation specials created for the company by Aston Martin Tickford, with the aim of making the already highly competitive Sierra Cosworth 'unbeatable on the race tracks'. Probably a press car that was first registered to Ford's competition department in Cologne, before becoming the property of a Formula One manager and then part of an important collection of Ford vehicles after its arrival in the UK in 2007 when purchased by the current vendor. It is presented in the livery of the Texaco Eggenberger car raced in 1987 by Klaus Ludwig and Klaus Niedwiedz, with which they clinched the Entrant's division of the World Touring Car Championship for Ford, and would also have won the Driver's section too, had the RS500 not been disqualified from the James Hardie 1000 round in Australia for 'wheel arch panel irregularities'. 'E163 KHK' is understood to have covered only 23,100 miles from new and is offered with a collection of old MOT certificates, sundry German paper work, original service book plus sales brochure and it's understood the RS500 will possess a fresh MOT by the time of sale. The vendor classes its bodywork, Black paintwork, Grey interior trim, 2-0 litre engine and five-speed manual gearbox as all being in 'excellent' condition. A rare opportunity. Always quick to support the performance and motorsport markets, Ford introduced the be-winged XR4i in 1983, followed by the XR 4x4 in 1985, and the Sierra RS Cosworth in 1986, which was conceived to gain homologation for Group A touring car racing, and out of which grew the all-conquering RS500 Cosworth. The intention was to finish all RS500s in Black but, while most were, 56 ended up White and 52 were painted Moonstone Blue. The key differences between the standard product and the RS500 were: thicker walled cylinder block: larger Garrett turbocharger and intercooler; uprated fuel pump; uprated oil and cooling systems and secondary rear spoiler. The engine upgrades increased the output from 204bhp to 222bhp and the RS500 ultimately won 15 national series, including the 1990 British Touring Car Championship.PLEASE NOTE: We understand this Vehicle has not been presented for an MOT due to a braking system issue, which the Vendor believes may be linked to the ABS pump. A spare pump accompanies the Lot.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl. VAT

1962 Hotchkiss M201 Jeep- Built in France under licence in 1962- Believed low mileage example in "good condition"- 24 volt, new carburettor, original shovel, axe and hoodKnown in France as 'La Jeep', the Hotchkiss M201 was the standard light transport used by the French army from the end of WW2 up until the 1980s. Initially built under licence as MBs, they were known as M201s from 1956 and remained virtually unchanged throughout production - a fitting testament to the efficiency of the original design.This LHD example was a licence built jeep produced in 1962 which was UK registered in 1998. Said to be in good running order, the vendor surmises from the condition of the chassis and transmission that it has covered relatively few miles in its lifetime. Fitted with 24 volt electrics, a new carburettor has been fitted although the original unit is included. Powered by a 2.2-litre petrol engine, it is accompanied by an original shovel, axe and hood. Said to have "excellent" bodywork, engine and electrics with "very good" paintwork, gearbox and interior, several old MoT certificates are included in the history file and the owner informs us it will have a new MoT in time for the sale.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl. VAT

1975 Land Rover 88 Series III- A matching numbers example that has covered just 50,000 miles from new- Served as a 'weekend toy' for taking to shows and events- Said to have 'very good' bodywork, paintwork, interior, engine and transmission.The ubiquitous land Rover steadily progressed from a single offering to a family of long and short wheelbase derivatives with an ever increasing choice of engines. The Series III of 1971-1985 is the most common, of which 440,000 were produced. Outwardly it was almost identical the IIA, but the diesel version benefited from a higher compression ratio and the gearbox from synchromesh on all ratios, while the cab featured a more modern, moulded plastic facia. The vendor informs us that this very pretty matching numbers example has covered just 50,000 miles from new. It is immaculately presented in White over Blue and powered by the standard specification 2.25-litre diesel engine of the period. In recent years it has served as a 'weekend toy' for taking to shows etc. Registered as an historic vehicle, it is currently regarded by the vendor as having 'very good' bodywork, paintwork, Black interior trim, engine and transmission.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl. VAT

1986 Ford Escort RS Turbo- The subject of much restoration / recommissioning during 2016- Original grey cloth upholstery, subtly modified / upgraded 1.6 litre turbocharged engine- MOT'd till April 2018Developed by Ford's Special Vehicle Engineering Department, the Escort RS Turbo broke cover in October 1984. Far more than a souped-up XR3i, the newcomer featured heavy-duty suspension, improved brakes and a viscous-coupling limited slip differential (the latter a road car first). A production run of 5,000 was planned to homologate the model for Group A competition but demand was such that 8,604 were made (with 5,576 being UK supplied). Only available in Diamond White - except for Lady Diana Spencer's unique Black example - the three-door sported a comprehensive body kit and was powered by a turbocharged 1597cc CVH four-cylinder engine allied to five-speed manual transmission. With some 132bhp and 133lbft of torque on tap, the Fast Ford was reputedly capable of 0-60mph in 7.8 seconds and 128mph. Described by Motor Sport magazine as "perhaps the most enjoyable hot hatch currently available on the British market", the Escort RS Turbo attracted a cult following that has gone from strength to strength over the last thirty-three years.Finished in Diamond White with Grey cloth upholstery, this particular example is described by the vendor as being in 'average / good' (interior trim), 'very good' (paintwork, electrical equipment) or 'excellent' (engine, gearbox, bodywork) condition. Reportedly the subject of an extensive restoration that was completed last year, C500 FKH' is further understood to have been featured in a recent Microsoft computer game. Offered for sale with V5C Registration Document and MOT certificate valid until April 2018.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl. VAT

1974 Mercedes-Benz 450 SLC- LHD example registering c.44,000 miles only, Black coachwork with cloth interior- Previously registered to Island Trading Co and Palm Pictures with licence plate 'HYD 1'- Understood to have possibly been used by Bob Marley when visiting the UKSharing the same basic (R107) platform architecture as its convertible sibling, the Mercedes-Benz 450SLC fixed head coupe was introduced in 1972. A full four-seater, equipped with independent suspension, power steering and disc brakes, it proved a refined grand tourer. Predominantly allied to automatic transmission, its 4520cc SOHC V8 engine developed a quoted 217bhp and 265lbft of torque.This LHD example was previously registered to Island Trading Co and Palm Pictures (V5 on file) under licence plate 'HYD 1' and the vendor informs us it is believed to have been used by reggae legend Bob Marley when visiting the UK. Chris Blackwell, record producer and businessman, had helped forge Marley's career and was the founder of Palm Pictures and Island Records. Finished in black with grey / black cloth interior, the vendor now rates the bodywork, paintwork, engine, gearbox and interior as "very good". Currently registering just c.44,150 miles, the car is accompanied by a Swansea V5c document, MoT to July 2018 and a quantity of expired MoTs back to 1992.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.

1966 Austin Gipsy Series IV Station Wagon- Purchased new by the police force in Whitchurch, Hants but designated as a reserve vehicle and scarcely used - Remarkably original having had just three private keepers since being sold off by the police in 1996 - Believed to have covered just 4,952 miles from new! Introduced in 1958, the Austin Gipsy featured an all-steel body and fully independent suspension utilising Flexitor rubber units developed by Alex Moulton. Powered by a 2199cc OHV four-cylinder engine that drove all four wheels via an all-synchromesh, four-speed gearbox coupled to a high/low ratio transfer box, the newcomer would climb a 45-degree slope and haul a maximum payload of 0.5 tons. The Series II Gipsy of 1960 was available in short- (90in) or long-wheelbase (111in) guises and had its mountaineering credentials proven when a team of London University students used one to scale Ben Nevis (Britain's highest peak at 4,406ft). There was no Series III Gipsy, but at the end of 1962 the leaf-spring equipped Series IV appeared. Gipsy production ceased in 1969 after some 21,208 examples had been sold. A rare Series IV Station Wagon, this particular example was reportedly purchased new by the police force in Whitchurch, Hants. However, the allocation of a fleet of Ford Transits saw the Austin quickly consigned to the role of reserve vehicle and stored in a local garage. Its services were never called upon and the garage proprietor purchased it from the police during 1996. He in turn sold the Gipsy to its previous keeper some seven years later. Entering the current ownership via our October 2010 auction, the Austin had not long been treated to a new clutch master cylinder and brake overhaul (at a cost of £911.91). Described at the time as being 'immaculate and original', it remains highly presentable today. Believed but not warranted to have covered just 4,952 miles from new, the Series IV Station Wagon has formed part of a private Irish collection for the past seven years. Starting readily during our photography session (October 2017), it is accompanied by assorted spares, workshop manuals and old Whitchurch-issued tax discs etc.PLEASE NOTE: This lot is currently registered in Eire and as such does not carry the UK number plate 'KYP 637D' which was surrendered when it was exported. It should be possible to reunite the Austin with its original number plate should a new owner so wish. Although, this will be at the discretion of the DVLA.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl. VAT

1958 Jensen 541 Deluxe- Bare shell restoration 2013/2014 including retrim with Maserati-sourced leather, wooden dash etc.- JOC 'Best in Class' cup holder 2015/2016, Rosso Red with Mustard leather- Laycock overdrive, disc brakes, triple SUs, one of just 53 examples builtLike its contemporary Interceptor, Jensen's 541 flowed from the pen of Eric Neale, and first saw the light of day at the 1953 London Motor Show, with production commencing the following year. It had many points of interest. For example it was the first Jensen to feature a predominantly glass reinforced plastic body, the entire front section of which hinged upwards in order to give optimum access to the engine compartment. The material was chosen to overcome the relative post-war shortage of steel, and provide an economical solution to the problem of manufacturing a complex design in small numbers. There was also the benefit of a reduction in weight and, with the contribution of alloy-skinned doors and Perspex rear windows, the newcomer's overall dry weight was 2,690 lb versus the Interceptor's 3,020. Interestingly, not only was the body impressively light, but aerodynamic too - the drag coefficient of 0.39 being notably low for a large car of the period concerned. So to another first - in Deluxe specification, the 541 was also the first British four-seater car to be equipped with Dunlop disc brakes all round.The innovative body was mounted on a rigid steel chassis and the ensemble powered by a triple carburettor version of Austin's proven DS5 engine, complete with Weslake high compression cylinder head. The resulting output of 135bhp was sufficient to propel Motor magazine's test car to 60mph in 10.8 seconds and on to a mean top speed of 115.8mph. The unit drove through a four-speed manual transmission for which there was the option of Laycock de Normanville overdrive. Suspension was independent at the front by wishbones and coil springs, while the live rear axle was supported by leaf springs and further located by a Panhard rod. A total of 226 541s are known to have been built between 1954 and 1959, 53 of which were the Deluxe version that featured all the otherwise optional extras as standard. The original 541 was supplanted by the 541R and then 541S, bringing total series production to c.546, of which the Jensen Owners' Club believes less than 150 remain in existence.The appropriately registered 'TSV 541' now offered for sale is a 541 Deluxe that came off the line in November 1958. We should set the scene by pointing out that it won the Jensen Owners' Club's Best in Class Cup in 2015/2016, so is certainly no run-of-the-mill example. It was acquired by the vendor in 2012 having been dry stored for around 20 years. At this point it was stripped to a bare shell and every component, large or small, either replaced or refurbished as required. The exterior finish of vibrant Rosso Red was left unmolested, as it remained in fine order from an earlier repaint. The car was, however, treated to a new Maserati-sourced Mustard Yellow leather interior that's complemented by a bespoke light-coloured wood facia. This delightful Jensen seemingly wants for nothing, as its comprehensive specification includes: overdrive gearbox, twin stainless steel exhausts, chrome wire wheels, auxiliary front lights, period sports wing mirrors, and a period push-button radio fed by a roof-mounted aerial. The vendor currently classes the interior trim and transmission as 'excellent', the bodywork and paintwork as 'very good to excellent', and the straight-six engine as 'very good'. 'TSV 541' has so far travelled just 3,295 miles since the restoration was completed in 2014, and this lovely example of one of the British industry's rarer classic GT cars is now being offered complete with an MOT valid into October 2018, together with certificates covering the full period of the Jensen's current ownership.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.

1965 Jaguar E-Type 4.2 Coupe- 1 of 1,584 RHD Series 1 4.2 Fixed Head Coupes made- Purchased by the vendor from Eagle E-Types as a project car and extensively restored during 2014-2015- Original engine but sympathetically upgraded with a Tremec T5 gearbox, electronic ignition, Bluetooth 'hands free' telephone facility etcTriumphantly launched at the March 1961 Geneva Salon, Jaguar's '150mph' E-Type was the sports car that (a) put the swinging into the 'swinging sixties', (b) no lesser a man than Enzo Ferrari dubbed 'the most beautiful car in the world', and (c) transported a galaxy of stars from Brigitte Bardot to George Best, Tony Curtis to Donald Campbell and Roy Orbison to Steve McQueen. Though not designed as a racer, the E-Type was nevertheless a direct descendent of the all-conquering D-Type and thus had motorsport embedded in its DNA. Equipped with all-round independent suspension, rack and pinion steering and four-wheel disc brakes, its handling and roadholding proved more than a match for most rivals. Just one month from launch Graham Hill and Roy Salvadori drove the Equipe Endeavour E-Type ('ECD 400') to victory at Oulton Park and some fifty-six years later the model remains a force to be reckoned with in historic racing. Updated during August 1964, the Jaguar gained a larger 4235cc XK DOHC straight-six engine and more user-friendly manual gearbox with synchromesh on each of its four forward speeds. Thankfully, the Big Cat's beautiful styling remained unaltered until the introduction of the so-called Series 1.5 cars during September 1967 by which time just 1,584 RHD Series 1 4.2 Fixed Head Coupes had been made. According to its accompanying Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust Production Record Trace Certificate, this particular example - chassis 1E20499 - was completed on 26th March 1965 and despatched to South London Motors Ltd early the following month. First owned by Derek Clark, it subsequently passed to Surrey residents R.H. Hopkins, K. Lockhart, Michael Hammond and Edward Baylis. Taken off the road during the 1970s, the E-Type was re-registered with the DVLA under its original registration number 'ELA 867C' on April 1st 1979. Changing hands three times thereafter, the Fixed Head Coupe was purchased by the vendor in October 2013 from Henry Pearman of renowned specialist Eagle E-Types. Mr Pearman had been holding the Jaguar in stock as a suitable candidate for one of his company's restorations but agreed to sell it 'as was'.Enlisting the services of craftsmen local to his Suffolk home, the vendor had chassis 1E20499 treated to an extensive 'bare metal' restoration during 2014-2015. The bodyshell was repaired as necessary and its opening panels trued for alignment before being painted Opalescent Dark Green. The interior was re-upholstered by Aldridge Trimming and the brightwork refurbished. A Tremec T5 five-speed manual gearbox was fitted for improved high-speed cruising (the original gearbox and propshaft come with the car) and the E-Type further upgraded via the installation of a heated rear window, electronic ignition, updated starter motor, Bluetooth 'hands free' telephone facility, period looking but modern stereo, improved cooling and uprated brakes. Sent to marque specialist Roach Classics Ltd for a stem to stern 'spanner check', 'ELA 867C' was found to need little by way of adjustment / improvement. Unhappy with the performance of the car's original 'matching numbers' engine the vendor has just recently had it overhauled again this time by Woodbridge Classic Cars.Still being 'run in', the straight-six started readily upon inspection and ran well during our recent photography visit (October 2017). A handsome, home market car, 'ELA 867C' has much to recommend it. Offered for sale with V5C Registration Document, original logbook, restoration photos and MOT certificate valid until September 2018.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.

1968 Jaguar E-Type 4.2 2+2- Subject of a gradual comprehensive restoration that included conversion to righthand drive- Dispalys a credible 59,705 miles and fitted with five-speed manual gearbox- Offered complete with photos of the respray and engine overhaul`STN 169F' is a Series 1.5 model that was dry stored in the USA for 25 years before being repatriated in 2005. Since then it has been the subject of a gradual comprehensive restoration that's included conversion to righthand drive, a bare metal respray in British Racing Green, the installation of new Black leather interior trim (with the exception of the rear seat material), and overhaul of the 4.2-litre engine. Along the way it has acquired a stainless steel performance exhaust manifold and five-speed manual Getrag gearbox. However, due to unforeseen circumstances the Jaguar has remained unused since the completion of the work, and so is reluctantly being made available for sale. The odometer currently displays a credible (though unwarranted) 59,705 miles, and the vendor presently regards the car's bodywork, paintwork, XK engine and replacement transmission as all being in `very good condition, and the interior trim as `good'. The Jaguar comes complete with photos of the respray and engine overhaul. An affordable entry into the wonderful world of the E-Type.The 2+2 Fixed Head Coupe of the immortal E-Type (known as the XKE in America, where most examples were sold) was introduced in 1966. Nine inches longer and featuring a more vertical windscreen, it was equipped with a pair of small rear seats and a notably airy feel courtesy of its stretched wheelbase and raised roofline. It benefited from the same fully independent suspension, rack and pinion steering and disc brakes as its two-seater brethren. Powered by a 4,235cc DOHC straight six engine developing a quoted 265bhp and 283 lbft of torque, it was the first E-type model to list automatic transmission as an option. Only in production for some three years, a mere 5,600 are thought to have been built, just 1983 of which were examples of the Series 1.5 version.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.

1938 MG TA- Restored in 1980s and nicely mellowed with wonderful patina- Original registration number and buff logbook- History file including invoices and photos of the restorationAnnounced in 1936, the TA established the famous T-Series pedigree which would persist until the mid-1950s. Designed around a simple new ladder-type chassis frame, with beam axles and front and rear, allied to ultra-stiff leaf springs, the newcomer was powered by an overhead-valve engine allied to part-synchromesh four-speed manual transmission. The top speed was up to 75mph, the ride was firm, but the entire driving experience was exhilarating. A total of 3,003 TAs were produced until 1939.First registered on 6th April 1938 and understood to retain its original registration number, GRE 318 was restored during the 1980s and has been in the current ownership since 2005. Now finished in red with a lovely patina to the red leather seats, the car has been used sparingly by the vendor, mainly attending various shows around the country. Accompanied by a continuation buff logbook dating from 1960, Swansea V5C, assorted expired MoTs, invoices and restoration photographs, the most recent invoice on file relates to replacement of the master cylinder and front wheel brake cylinders in May 2017. Now only being offered for sale to assist with a family member's house purchase, this lovely TA is described as a "good useable example" with "very good" bodywork, engine, gearbox and interior and "good" paint.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.

Based on a Rolls Royce 20/25 chassis and running gear, it is powered by a 4-litre Rolls Royce FB 60 engine with automatic gearbox.

1955 Mercedes-Benz 300 B 'Adenauer' Saloon- Offered for spares or repair, LHD, Red leather upholstery - Engine and gearbox removed in the past (though, parts of the former appear to remain) - Imported from the USA some years ago, comes with an old US title and proof of UK VAT paid. Synonymous with (and nicknamed after) Konrad Adenauer - the first Chancellor of the Federal Republic of Germany - who ran no less than six during his tenure, the Mercedes-Benz Type 300 (or W186) was launched at the 1951 Frankfurt Motor Show. Able to accommodate up to six people, the Type 300 was available in Saloon or Cabriolet guises. A credible rival to the Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud / Bentley S1 pairing, the vast majority of the 6,214 Type 300 Saloons made were to left-hand drive specification. Finished in Black with Red leather upholstery, this left-hand drive example is offered for spares or repair having had its engine and gearbox removed at some stage in the past. The gearbox is missing but various parts of the engine remain including, what we guess to be, the cylinder block, cylinder head, cam cover, sump and assorted internals (such as pistons and conrods etc). The bellhousing, steering wheel, twin Solex carburettors (plus associated manifolding) and sundry items of door furniture etc are present too. Described by the vendor as having 'good' bodywork but 'poor' interior trim and paintwork, this incomplete Mercedes-Benz is being sold strictly as viewed and without documentation. PLEASE NOTE: Since the catalogue went to press we have been informed that this lot comes with an old US title and proof of UK VAT being paid from when it was imported several years ago.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.

His response was the now legendary Mini. Featuring an ingenious transverse-mounted powertrain (with engine sat atop of the gearbox), all-round independent 'rubber cone' suspension, front-wheel drive and compact rack and pinion steering, the newcomer was a packaging masterpiece; not to mention one of the most influential automotive designs ever conceived. A fine example of a Rover Mini Cooper in British Racing Green with a white roof and black cloth upholstery 'J535 JUT' has just undergone an extensive bodywork restoration, windows out re-paint and mechanical overhaul.

In more recent years it has served as a classic rally car, and to that end is equipped with: road rally camshaft, six-branch exhaust manifold, competition clutch, straight-cut gearbox with competition overdrive, limited slip differential, alloy sump and guard, Works hard top, roll hoop and Cibi£ auxiliary lights, and in this form competed on the 1997 Monte Carlo and 1999 Rally des Alpes events. More recently, '1735 ME' has benefited from new wings and dampers on the rear.It is finished in the attractive combination of White hard top over Light Metallic Blue bodywork, teamed with dark Blue interior trim. The vendor currently considers the bodywork, interior trim, straight-six engine and transmission to be in 'very good' order, and the paintwork to be of a 'good' standard, and is selling the Healey complete with green log book, large collection of tax discs and old MOTs, plus one valid into August of next year. The following are available by separate negotiation: hood, tonneau cover and bumpers.The 'Big' Healey enjoyed steady development, with the early four-cylinder cars giving way to the 100-Six in 1956, and the first of the 3000s in 1959. By now engine capacity had risen to 2912cc and power output to 124bhp - sufficient to grace the standard car with a 0-60mph time of 11.4 seconds and a top speed of 114 mph. There was the option of Laycock de Normanville overdrive, and braking had been improved by the adoption of discs at the front. There were two body options - a two-seater (BN7) or occasional four-seater (BT7). By the time of the MKII in 1961, a total of 2,825 BN7s and 10,825 BT7s had been produced.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl. VAT

1948 Morgan 42829- A restoration project that may have had past competition usage- 0-8,000rpm Aquaplane rev counter, twin spare wheels and replacement Ford engine- Offered for sale at no reserve and without documentationAccording to the Morgan Sports Car Club's records, 'JYH 340' was despatched to a London dealer on 3rd July 1947 in an unfinished state (i.e. not painted or trimmed). Originally powered by a Standard 10 OHV engine allied to a four-speed Moss gearbox, the 4-4 acquired what appears to be a Ford 1172cc sidevalve four-cylinder engine prior to being abandoned on the vendor's farm over twenty years ago. Now in need of total restoration, the presence of a 0-8,000rpm Aquaplane rev counter and twin spare wheels suggest that the Morgan may have had past competition usage. Offered for sale with a quantity of spares but no documentation.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl. VAT

1990 Ford Sierra Sapphire RS Cosworth 4x4- 2 private keepers & just 15,843 miles from new- Complete with original book pack with all handbooks plus service book- Described as 'excellent' with regards to the bodywork, paintwork, interior, engine and manual five-speed gearboxReleased in the September of 1982, the Ford Sierra was a replacement for the ubiquitous Cortina and its German sibling, the Taunus. The aerodynamic styling was arguably ahead of its time and caused initial controversy - one eminent UK journalist nicknaming it the 'jelly mould'. Ford had the last laugh, however, with sales eventually reaching 1,299,993 units over the 11 years of production; making it Britain's 10th most popular car up to that time.Always quick to support the performance and motorsport markets, Ford introduced the be-winged XR4i in 1983. This was followed by the XR 4x4 in 1985, the Sierra RS Cosworth in 1986, the Sierra RS500 Cosworth in 1987, the Sierra Sapphire in 1988 and the Sierra Sapphire RS Cosworth 4x4 in 1990; some 12,250 of which were manufactured before Ford's power mantle was assumed by the Escort RS Cosworth in 1992. Though the 4x4 Sapphire never managed to emulate the two-wheel drive Cosworth's victory in a round of the World Rally Championship (Corsica, 1988), it nevertheless become a popular and successful weapon in national events, and examples are still contesting club rallies to this day.The immaculate example offered is understood to have started life as a showroom demonstrator and has only covered 15,843 miles to this day. Following periods in the care of St Helens Ford and then Corner Ford of Coventry, it was the property of a Mr Nigel Leek of the same city from 1990 until acquired by the vendor in 2007. Equipped with Bosch Green injectors and a ceramic clutch, the Cossie is presently considered by its vendor to have 'excellent' bodywork, White paintwork, Black interior trim, 2-litre engine and manual five-speed gearbox. He is now offering it complete with original book pack with all handbooks plus service book, collection of old invoices, tax discs and MOT certificates, plus one valid into August 2018.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.

1959 Jaguar XK150 SE Convertible- A right-hand drive, 'home market' car that has been extensively restored in recent years including conversion from fixed- to drophead coupe coachwork- Fitted with a replacement 3.8 litre engine modified to 'S' specification with triple SU carburettors plus a Getrag five-speed manual gearbox and electric power steering- Spax adjustable dampers all-round, 4-pot Coopercraft front brake callipers, high efficiency radiator core, alternator, hi-torque starter motor, stainless steel exhaust system etcThis stunningly-presented XK150 is a genuine righthand drive home market example that has not only been extensively restored and upgraded in recent years, but converted from Fixed to Drophead Coupe coachwork. The original engine has been supplanted by an S specification unit fed by a trio of 2 inch SU carburettors. The motor also benefits from: twin fuel pumps: alternator; high torque starter motor; 4.2-litre water pump conversion; high efficiency radiator core; stainless steel exhaust system; and battery isolator switch. It nowadays drives through a Getrag five-speed manual gearbox to an S type rear axle with limited slip differential. The braking system features four-pot Coopercraft front calipers and Aeroquip hoses, while the suspension has been improved with competition bushes on the front and Spax adjustable dampers all round. The Jaguar rides on 15 inch E-Type chrome wire wheels shod with 205 x70 Vredestein Classic Sprint tyres. Other improvements of note include power steering and a 16 inch wood rim steering wheel. 'TCA 740' has been finished using modern paints and rust-proofing materials and is presented with British Racing Green bodywork complemented by Magnolia-coloured leather interior trim, Tan hood and hood envelope, and Dark Green carpet. The vendor unsurprisingly presently classes the car's bodywork, paintwork, interior trim, XK engine and transmission as all being in 'Very Good' condition. A superior example fully suited to today's roads and traffic.Introduced in the May of 1957, the XK150 was the last Jaguar sportscar to utilise a separate chassis. Though a logical progression of the XK140, subtle changes gave it a distinctly more modern air. At launch, it was offered in Fixed and Drophead Coupe guise, the Roadster option following in 1958. By the time the model was superseded by the E-Type in 1961, some 4,445 Fixed Head Coupes, 2,672 Drophead Coupes and 2,265 Roadsters had been produced.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.

Introduced in 1960, the rare 500 D Trasformabile offered a full length folding roof and more performance from a detuned version of the Sport model's powerplant. Now a true motoring icon, the 500 is recognised as a landmark design in the history of motoring. This charming righthand drive conversion was sourced in Italy and professionally restored in 2012 by Signature Automobiles of Beckenham as a 40th birthday gift for the vendor's wife.

1950 MG YA- Known history from new & just 23,070 miles- Purchased new by Doctor Henry Lawson of Ambleside.- Treated it to a bare metal respray in the original colour of Pallendine Red.This delightful and incredibly original MG was purchased new by Doctor Henry Lawson of Ambleside. Only months later he went abroad and 'LTJ 900' was placed in storage for the next 22 years. It then joined the private collection of Bruce Hewitt of Windermere, but didn't revisit the public roads until it became the property of John Connell in 1993 - after 43 years it had covered just 14,000 miles and has only driven 23,070 to this day.

1970 Morris Minor 1000 Saloon- Part of the Old Hall collection since July 1977 and just one previous keeper shown on its V5C Reg Doc- Used by the vendor's children to learn to drive and as shared 'weekend wheels'- Understood to have covered just 42,900 miles from new and MOT'd till Oct 2018Debuting alongside Jaguar's superbly glamorous XK120 at the 1948 London Motor Show, the Morris Minor was somewhat overshadowed. An exceptionally advanced design, the Minor was the brainchild of Sir Alec Issigonis. With a monocoque chassis, independent torsion-bar front suspension, all-round hydraulic drum brakes and rack and pinion steering the model possessed excellent handling but lacked the horsepower to exploit it. However, things improved markedly when the four-cylinder 1098cc OHV A-series equipped Series V was introduced in 1962. With up to 45bhp and 60lbft of torque being transmitted to its rear wheels via a four-speed manual gearbox, the Series V was capable of some 77mph.Reputedly first owned by Mrs Nellie Baldwin of Thirsk - the sole previous keeper listed on its V5C Registration Document - this particular example has formed part of the Old Hall collection since July 1977. Used by the vendor's children to learn to drive and as shared 'weekend wheels', the Morris is understood to have covered just 42,900 miles from new.

1965 Austin-Healey 3000 MKIII- A desirable home market, 'matching numbers' car - Supplied new by Cogger & Hawkins Ltd of Aylesbury complete with wire wheels and overdrive- Recently repainted and re-trimmed with 93,700 recorded milesUnlike many Big Healeys we see these days, `APO 373C is a genuine matching numbers, home market example that came off line in July 1965 destined for the dealer Cogger and Hawkins of Aylesbury, Bucks. It was built with a considerable number of desirable factory-fitted options including: overdrive, wire wheels, adjustable steering column, tonneau cover, laminated windscreen and heater. Fifty two years on, and the mileage stands at an eminently credible (be it unwarranted) total of 93,700. In 2009 the car benefited from an overhaul of its twin SU carburettors and the installation of an electronic ignition system. The gearbox and overdrive unit were overhauled in 2016, and in recent times the Healey has been repainted in its current shade of Blue, retrimmed in Blue-piped Cream hide and treated to a fresh Blue mohair hood. Taking all these improvements into account, the vendor presently views the bodywork, paintwork, interior trim, straight-six engine and manual four-speed gearbox as all being `very good' order, and is now selling the 3000 complete with Heritage certificate, and collection of invoices and old MOTs, plus a current MOT valid into March of next year.The Austin-Healey 100 was the toast of the 1952 London Motor Show, from when the newcomer enjoyed steady development. The four-cylinder cars gave way to the 100-Six of 1956, which in turn was replaced by the first of the 3000s in 1959. The final iteration was the 3000 MKIII, which was launched in October 1963 and mildly upgraded (Phase 2) in May the following year. The most powerful and luxurious of all the derivatives, it had lively performance courtesy of its 150bhp straight-six engine and featured such niceties as wind up windows and a walnut-veneer facia. 3000 production closed at the end of 1967 after 42,926 had been made, 17,712 of which were MKIIIs.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.

1937 Talbot BI 105 Airline Saloon- Stalled restoration with much work completed in the 1980s- Engine overhaul by Arthur Archer c.30 years ago, rechroming done etc.- Believed to include most parts to finishUnveiled at the October 1935 London Motor Show, the BI 105 was arguably the last 105 variant to remain true to designer Georges Roesch's engineering principles. Notably rigid and low-slung, the newcomer's chassis was reinforced by the use of a massive tubular cruciform brace and additional perforated channel sections to the inner face of its main side members. Equipped with all-round semi-elliptic leaf-spring suspension, Luvax adjustable dampers and large-diameter drum brakes, the BI 105 was powered by a free-revving 3-litre straight-six engine allied to Wilson pre-selector transmission. A rival to models from Alvis, Bentley and Lagonda, just 97 BI 105s are thought to have been made.This fascinating project has been in the current ownership for the past eight years following its acquisition from Birmingham coachbuilder Jack Castle. The vendor has now reluctantly decided that family commitments will prevent him from lavishing the time and attention required to restore the car. We are informed that much work was carried out in the 1980s including an engine overhaul by Arthur Archer (never run since and free) and an overhaul of the pre-selector gearbox. The suspension and braking system were also attended to, whilst much of the brightwork has been rechromed. The vendor believes almost all parts needed accompany the car together with a Swansea V5C, two old buff logbooks and a history file containing two original handbooks and information from Archers. One of just a tiny handful of survivors, DLP 937 represents a rare opportunity for the discerning Talbot enthusiast.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl. VAT

1951 MG TD- Genuine righthand drive TD that spent some of its early life in New York - Treated to a body-off restoration and respray in Ivory- Five-speed gearbox, stainless steel exhaust system and full weather equipment'XFO 698' is a genuine righthand drive TD that spent some of its early life in New York and comes with an original 'Big Apple' tax disc. In 1997 it crossed the Atlantic to the Isle of Man before being acquired by the vendor in 2006. Since then it has been treated to a body-off restoration and respray in Ivory, which is complemented by Black interior trim and weather equipment. The MG further benefits from the installation of a five-speed gearbox (the original will be available to the purchaser) and stainless steel exhaust system. In recent times the car has been stored in a carpeted garage and only used in fine weather. It is now offered for sale due to a family bereavement and is considered by the vendor to have 'very good' bodywork, paintwork, brightwork, upholstery, 1250cc XPAG engine, transmission and tyres. This much loved example is being sold complete with receipts for work done.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl. VAT

1967 Triumph Vitesse Convertible Conversion- Recent repaint and new hood, dark blue with tan interior- Wood refurbished, carpets replaced- Good quantity of old MoTs back to 1983, assorted invoicesThe Vitesse was launched in the April of 1962 and was effectively a big-engined version of Triumph's four-cylinder Herald range, based on the same backbone chassis. Like the Herald, it was styled by Giovanni Michelotti, who managed to redeploy most of the Herald body panels while giving the newcomer its own distinctive character, courtesy of a 'Chinese eye' four-headlamp front end. Power initially came from a 1596cc version of the family's straight-six Vanguard engine, though this was enlarged to 1998cc in 1966, when a more robust gearbox and better disc/drum brakes were also installed.Originally starting life as a saloon, LAO 354E is understood to have been converted around 1980 being enjoyed by two owners for the next twenty years. In 2013 the car was discovered needing work by a previous owner who commissioned a respray, a mechanical inspection, the fitting of new carpets and soft top. MoT'd to February 2018, it is offered with Swansea V5c, assorted invoices, summary of works completed and a quantity of old MoT certificates.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.

1974 Cadillac Eldorado Convertible- Subject to a braking system refurbishment in 2016 and a gearbox overhaul this year - Imported into the UK in 1981 and current ownership since 2012- Offered with a collection of old MOT certificates, invoices plus owner's manualThe Eldorado was a luxury offering that ran from 1952 to 2002 via 10 generations. The beautifully presented sale car is a fifth generation example powered by a V8 engine of 8.2 litres driving through a three-speed automatic transmission. Styling changes that differentiated the 1974 cars included: 5mph impact rear bumpers; horizontal tail lamps; fine mesh radiator grilles; and revised `space age' instrument panels. `SYP 183S' is finished in the striking combination of White hood over Red bodywork matched to a White interior. It was imported into the UK in 1981 and repainted in 2011 before being purchased by the vendor the following year. The braking system was refurbished in 2016 and this year included a £3,696 gearbox overhaul by Oakdene Automatic Transmissions of Nottingham. The vendor currently grades the engine and transmission as `excellent', and the bodywork, paintwork and interior trim as `very good'. The Caddy comes complete with old MOT certificates, invoices plus owner's manual and a current MOT into April 2018.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl. VAT

1953 Jaguar XK120 Drophead Coupe- Sold new in 1953 via Jaguars Los Angeles distributor Hornburg- A Matching numbers & freshly restored example- Fitted with a Guy Broad five-speed gearbox and offered with a collection of invoices According to its vendor, this handsome matching numbers Jaguar `is in beautiful condition and in need of no work whatsoever'. A lefthand drive export model it was sold new in 1953 via the company's Los Angeles distributor Hornburg. As now, it was finished in Dove Grey complemented by Tan-coloured interior trim. Apparently it did a modest amount of racing in Arizona in the `70s, the area it spent most of its life in until being shipped to Germany in 1990, where it was stored in a container awaiting a renovation that was never completed. Fast forward to 2015 when it was acquired by a classic car company who sold it to the vendor a year later, following which he instigated a full body-off restoration, during which no corrosion was encountered. The refurbishment involved: a total bare-metal respray; full retrim, including dashboard and carpets; replacement hood; fresh chrome bumpers and grill; and new Guy Broad five-speed gearbox, wire wheels and tyres. The total of the parts alone was over £24,000. It is intended that this desirable XK will be UK registered in time for the sale and it comes complete with Heritage certificate.The stunning-looking XK120 Roadster caused a sensation when launched at the 1948 London Motorshow. Capable of 120mph and more, it immediately assumed the mantle of the world's fastest production car. The equally elegant Fixed Head Coupe version followed in 1951 with the Drop Head Coupe completing the range in 1953. The key to the car's electrifying performance was its all new, alloy-headed DOHC 3.4-litre, straight-six engine, the basic design of which successfully powered a whole range of Jaguars until the late `80s. In order to confirm the model's top speed potential to the press, the second XK120 built was driven flat out on the Jabbeke straight, Belgium, achieving an astonishing 136.596mph in stripped form.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.

1962 Jaguar E-Type 3.8 Roadster- Repatriated from America in 1989 and believed to have covered just 2,200 miles since being extensively restored the following decade- Originally finished in Cream with Red upholstery and a Blue roof (the same livery it pleasingly sports today)- Sympathetically improved and recommissioned during the current five-year ownership (hi-torque starter motor, improved oil filtration, polybushed suspension, new in-tank fuel pump etc)- 'Matching' chassis and engine block numbersFamously launched at the 1961 Geneva Salon, the Jaguar E-Type created a furore. With its stunning looks, outrageous performance and accessible price tag, the newcomer left rivals reeling and customers clamouring. While, early competition success at the hands of Graham Hill and Roy Salvadori amongst others helped cement its reputation. Built as a monocoque with an engine cradling front sub-frame, the model's combination of all-round independent suspension, rack-and-pinion steering and four-wheel disc brakes gave it excellent roadholding / handling capabilities. Fed by triple SU HD8 carburettors and topped with a 'straight port' DOHC cylinder head, its 3781cc straight-six engine was quoted as developing some 265bhp and 260lbft. Allied to a four-speed Moss gearbox, the free-revving unit reputedly enabled the E-type to sprint from 0-60mph in 6.9 seconds and onto 150mph. Seemingly borrowed from a light aircraft, the wonderful turned aluminium centre console that adorned its dashboard was complemented by scalloped 'Dunlopillo' seats and a wood-rim steering wheel. Achingly beautiful yet viciously quick, the E-type remains for many the ultimate production Jaguar.According to an accompanying letter from Jaguar Cars Ltd, this particular example - chassis 877233 - was built on 2nd May 1962 and originally finished in Cream with Red upholstery and a Blue hood. Despatched from Browns Lane to Jaguar Cars New York, it remained Stateside for twenty-seven years before being repatriated by J.G. Johnston Esq. Purchased from the latter by M. Butcher Esq., the E-type was treated to an extensive restoration including conversion from left- to right-hand drive between 1990 and 1995. Paperwork on file indicates that much of the work was carried out by Andrew Morgan and MG Engineering of Great Yarmouth. Although, the two-seater still required fettling when acquired by previous keeper Brian Marshall of Hitchin during January 1995 as assorted bills from the likes of XK Engineering Ltd, SC Parts Group and SNG Barratt testify. Sparingly used by Mr Marshall, 'VSU 331' is thought to have covered just under 2,000 miles in his hands. Dry stored for a couple of years prior to entering the current ownership during June 2012, the Jaguar has since been recommissioned. As well as new gaskets, its 3.8 litre straight-six engine gained a new hi-torque starter motor and improved oil filtration system. Pleasingly, the cylinder block appears to be the car's factory-fitted original, while its cylinder head looks to be a correct-type replacement (from another pre-1963 E-Type). A fresh in-tank fuel pump was fitted and the fuel system gone through. The suspension was polybushed and the brakes overhauled with the rear subframe being removed, checked over and repainted too. Starting readily upon inspection and presented in its original livery, this delightful E-Type has been exhibited at several local car shows and is expected to possess a fresh MOT certificate by the time of sale.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.

1943 International Harvester M5 Half-Track Personnel Carrier- Used during the Allied liberation of Europe most likely by the Polish forces- Subsequently seconded to the French Army who stationed it in French Guyana, South America for decades- Brought back to France in the 1980s and sold to Belgian collector, and Supreme Court Judge, Mr Louis Amerijckx who stored it in the grounds of his chateau- Acquired from Mr Amerijckx by Ivo Rigter in Summer 1987 and treated to a 2,500-hour, 'chassis up' restoration over the next twenty-seven years!- Correct-type engine was overhauled by the Bugatti works during the 1960s (and again as part of the refurbishment). Genuine parts were used wherever possible and sourced from all over the globe- Vehicle is liveried in the markings of the Polish 10th Regiment Dragonders and as a tribute to the famous Polish SOE Agent Maria 'Krystyna' Janina Skarbek. Surviving WW2, she became a British Citizen and took the name Christine GranvilleConceived as a high-mobility infantry vehicle capable of resisting small arms fire and shell / mortar splinters whilst carrying a dozen troops at speeds in excess of 40mph, the M3 Half-Track was also considerably easier to drive than a Full-Track machine. Despite the best efforts of the White, Autocar and Diamond T Motor Companies, demand was still outstripping supply by mid-1941. Approached by the US Army's Ordnance Department, the International Harvester Company of Chicago, Illinois designed its own version. Utilising 5/16-in homogenous armoured plate (as opposed to 1/4-in face hardened steel), the resultant M5 was heavier than the M3 but compensated by featuring a strengthened chassis and hull, tougher 'banjo' axles and more powerful International Harvester RED-450B straight-six OHV engine. Credited with developing some 143bhp and 348lbft of torque, the latter was allied to four-speed manual transmission. Visually distinguished by its flat-section front wings and rounded rear corners, the M5 is deemed by many to be the ultimate Half-Track. Over half of the 4,625 IHC Half-Track M5 Personnel Carriers made came to Britain to be distributed under the Lend-Lease programme.Delivered on April 27th 1943, this particular example - serial number M5-2696 - is believed to have been used by Polish forces during the Allied liberation of Europe and thus may even have participated in the capture of the Kriegsmarine naval base at Wilhelmshaven. Known to have been in Germany following the cessation of hostilities, it was thoroughly overhauled by the Mercedes-Benz Works before being reallocated to the French Army. Stationed in French Guyana, South America for decades, the Half-Track returned to France during the 1980s where it was acquired as surplus by the Belgian collector Mr Louis Amerijckx. Then a Supreme Court Judge and chateau owner, Mr Amerijckx took some persuading but eventually sold the M5 Personnel Carrier to Dutch enthusiast Ivo Rigter in 1987. Determined to return the IHC machine to factory specification and condition, Mr Rigter scoured Europe and the United States in search of correct parts. Some twenty-seven years and 2,500 restoration hours later, the Half-Track was finally completed to his satisfaction.Despite their Mercedes-Benz overhaul plaques, the pre-refurbishment engine and gearbox were found to be too heavily water damaged to reuse. Another RED-450B straight-six OHV engine was duly found (and turned out to have been overhauled by Bugatti during the early 1960s), while Mr Stel from Radio Kootwijk provided a replacement gearbox. The rear tracks were sourced from Portugal and any truly obscure components made from scratch by Mr Rigter and his team. A hobby that turned into a business, by the time M5-2696 was completed Mr Rigter had founded the BAIV BV International Trading Company (BAIV standing for British and American Invasion Vehicles). The quality of the work which has gone into rejuvenating the Half-Track has to be seen to be appreciated but an idea can be gleaned by viewing the following YouTube link: www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLVZjReelx9dNWmoaewpMIZk7-XFGI-kSK Sporting the markings of the Polish 10th Regiment Dragonders, the M5 Personnel Carrier also has the name 'Krystyna' emblazoned on its doors as a tribute to Christine Granville (nee Maria Krystyna Janina Skarbek) a remarkable Polish lady who served as a Section D and SOE agent during WW2 and who may or may not have inspired the character of Vesper Lynd in Ian Fleming's James Bond novel 'Casino Royale'!Driven less than 1,000 miles since the completion of its painstaking restoration, the use of modern materials means that its rear tracks appear all but unworn. Participating in the Dog Green Camp Omaha Beach 2014 meeting, the IHC machine has also been used by the vendor for taking friends to the pub! Potentially road legal once UK registered, it would make a hell of a statement at the Goodwood Revival! Only coming to market because the vendor wishes to reduce the size of his military vehicle collection, this fabulous Half-Track is offered for sale at somewhat less than its restoration would cost to repeat today.

1955 Guy Otter Flat Lorry- Formerly the property of the Wednesbury Tube Co- Treated to an extensive 'chassis up' restoration in the 1990s and recently repainted to a high standard to refresh its cosmetics- 3800cc diesel engine, 5-speed manual gearbox, 2-speed Eaton back axleWorks Manager at Sunbeam until 30th May 1914 when he resigned to found Guy Motors Ltd, Sydney S. Guy was a highly driven individual who left a lasting impression on the British Motor Industry. Within four months his fledgling concern not only had its own factory at Fallings Park, Wolverhampton but was also producing an innovative 30cwt lorry. Built using a much lighter form of pressed steel frame (where rivals employed far heavier rolled steel channel ones), the latter became renowned for its ability to cross rough terrain. Diversifying into the manufacture of aero engines and even depth charges during WW1, Guy Motors Ltd dabbled with motorcar production during the 1920s before concentrating on commercial vehicles. The firm's famous Red Indian mascot appeared in 1934 (inspired by its 'Feathers in our Cap' advertising slogan) and that same decade witnessed the launch of the forward-control Otter. Reintroduced after WW2, the Otter could be had with a choice of petrol or diesel engines and from 1952 featured an all-steel cab.Formerly the property of the Wednesbury Tube Company, this particular example is a long wheelbase, alloy-bodied, drop side flat lorry. Powered by a 3.8 litre Gardner 4LK diesel engine allied to a David Brown gearbox and driving the rear wheels via an Eaton two-speed back axle, it was treated to an extensive 'chassis up' restoration during the 1990s. Recently re-painted to a high standard, the Otter sports a Red chassis, Burgundy cab / body and Black wheels. Described by the vendor as being in 'very good' (interior trim) or 'excellent' (bodywork, engine, transmission, paintwork, electrical equipment) condition, this handsome Guy lorry would make an ideal promotional vehicle or period car transporter.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.

1954 Sunbeam-Talbot 90 MKIIa Drophead Coupe- Finished in Grey and matched to a Grey interior- Bodied by Thrupp & Maberley and displays 47,188 miles- Current ownership since 2009 and subject to degree of re-commissioningLaunched in July 1948, the Sunbeam-Talbot 90 was essentially a reworking of the company's pre-war 2-litre chassis design. However, the newcomer's adoption of overhead valve gear gave it a surprising turn of speed. Quick to capitalise, the Rootes competition department hastened the model's development. Thus, the 90 MKII of 1950 boasted not only a new chassis with independent front suspension but also a capacity increase to 2267cc. Driven by Stirling Moss, Desmond Scannell and John Cooper, a MKII finished second overall on the 1952 Monte Carlo Rally presaging the arrival of the faster, more powerful MKIIA. Equipped with bigger brakes and slotted wheels to assist cooling, the latter could be had in four-door Saloon or two-door Drophead Coupe guises. Bodied by Thrupp & Maberley, the `soft top' MKIIA proved to be the rarest `90' derivative. Finished in Grey matched to a Grey interior the sale example entered current ownership in 2009 and has been subject to degree of recommissioning which has included a new wiring harness, overhauled brakes and a new exhaust. Displaying 47,188 miles the vendor currently grades the engine, gearbox, paintwork and interior as `average'.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl. VAT

1969 Ford Mustang Bud Moore Trans-Am Tribute Car- Built in the USA as a tribute to the legendary Bud Moore race cars and authentically detailed- LHD, tuned 351ci V8 engine, 4-speed Top Loader manual gearbox, 3.77 Positraction rear end- Period bucket seats, uprated suspension / brakes, open side pipes, currently set-up for American circuit usageAwarded five Purple Hearts and two Bronze Stars during World War Two, Bud Moore showed the same courage and conviction in his civilian endeavours. A talented engineer with a celebrated eye for detail, he was already something of a NASCAR legend when Ford asked him to prepare two Mustangs for Parnelli Jones and George Follmer to drive in the 1969 SCCA Trans-Am Championship. Based around bodyshells that had been specially lightened and strengthened by Kar Kraft of Brighton, Michigan, the SportsRoof Mustangs that Moore created proved faster but more fragile than Roger Penske's hitherto unstoppable Chevrolet Camaros. Undeterred, the Blue Oval badged racers he developed for 1970 won six out of eleven rounds that year and with them the Championship title. Built in the USA as a tribute to Bud Moore's fabled 1969/70 Trans-Am cars, this beautifully detailed Ford Mustang racer is described by the vendor as being in 'excellent' order with regard to its tuned 351ci V8 engine, four-speed Top Loader manual transmission, electrical equipment, bodywork, paintwork and interior trim. Set-up for American circuit usage, it further benefits from a fuel cell, 3.77 Positraction rear, period race seats / belts, heavy-duty suspension and uprated brakes. Sounding decidedly purposeful through open side pipes, this stunning Mustang would doubtless be great fun on competitive Tour events.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.

1992 Range Rover Vogue EFi- 5 previous keepers and only 58,100 miles from new- Fitted with bespoke drinks cabinet in the boot - Offered with its original book pack with handbooks plus service bookThere was always scope for the production of a vehicle that combined the no-nonsense Land Rover's off-road prowess with a greater degree of on-road chic and comfort. Though various plans were mooted in the 1950s, it was the emergence of the American SUV a decade later that finally convinced Rover to create such a model. Spen King famously oversaw the '100 inch Station Wagon' project that was finally revealed as the Range Rover in 1970. The David Bache-penned newcomer was powered by the ubiquitous Rover V8 which was connected to a permanent four-wheel drive system for optimum traction. The sale example is finished in Bronze matched to a cloth interior and was supplied new by Lex Landrover of Knutsford. Having had just 5 previous keepers and only covering 58,100 miles from new this smart looking example is offered with its original book pack with handbooks plus service book and a collection of invoices, old MOT certificates and original sales brochure. At some stage it has been fitted with a bespoke drinks cabinet in the boot and is currently described by the vendor as 'Very Good' with regards to the interior, engine, paintwork plus gearbox and is offered with an MOT certificate into October 2018.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.

1956 Land Rover 107- Genuine UK supplied first registered 8 October 1956- Original and transferable registration mark- 2 litre petrol, overdrive gearboxThis is where 'The Best 4x4 by Far' started - a utility vehicle devised in 1947 by the Wilks brothers for use on their farm and inspired by the wartime Jeep. Thanks to its ingenious high/low ratio four-wheel drive system, the resultant 4x4 was possessed of incredible climbing ability in all conditions including battlefields.This UK supplied Land Rover 107 pick-up was first registered on 8th October 1956 and comes with a host of old tax discs from new. The two-litre petrol engine is believed to be the original unit and is said to be in "good" condition, as is the bodywork, gearbox and interior trim. A buyer may wish to smarten the "old" paintwork or use the vehicle as is. An invoice on file details recent work to the front and rear brakes and a re-cored radiator. Finished in grey with grey interior, the odometer displays some 68,450 miles and the Swansea V5 indicates the registration RAA 293 is transferable. With the 70th anniversary of production coming up next year interest in the marque is sure to grow and now may well be a wise time to buy.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.

1971 Jaguar E-Type 4.2 Roadster- 45,500 recorded miles and just 1,700 miles covered since an engine overhaul by VSE of Powys, Wales in 2007- Subject to a mechanical overhaul by marque specialists Wat Jag in 2013 at the cost of £12,572.45- Fitted with five-speed gearbox conversion and stainless steel exhaust system- Offered complete with a large collection of invoices dating back to 1973 and old MOT certificatesThis eye-catching Series 2 E-Type features glossy Red bodywork matched to a Black hood and contrasting Cream leather interior. We understand its first owner was Mr Dennis Meighan of London, who retained the Jaguar until it was purchased by the vendor in 2006. A spell in storage apparently accounts for the low recorded mileage of 45,500, just 1,700 of which have been accrued since an engine overhaul by VSE of Powys, Wales in 2007. In 2013 £12,572.45 was invested with marque specialists Wat Jag of Great Longstone, Derbyshire, which funded: a rear axle overhaul; the installation of four pot brake calipers and vented discs, and Gaz dampers; and tuning of the triple SU carburettors. Welcome upgrades to the original specification include a five-speed gearbox conversion and Series 1-style stainless steel exhaust system. The vendor presently classes the E-Type's 4.2- litre straight-six engine as `excellent', the manual gearbox and interior trim as `very good' and the bodywork and paintwork as `good', and confirms the Jaguar `runs and drives well'. He is now offering `DLM 210J' complete with a large collection of invoices dating back to 1973, a reproduction handbook and workshop manual, and a number of old MOT certificates, plus an advisory-free one valid into April of next year.At launch the new Jaguar was the fastest production car of its time - its 3.8-litre engine allowing a 0-60mph acceleration time of around seven seconds and a top speed of c.150mph. Despite this, the engine size was increased from 3.8 to 4.2-litres in October 1964 and, with the change, came a sweeter all-synchromesh gearbox, better brakes and more comfortable seats. The Series 2 models introduced in 1969 are distinguished by their lack of headlamp covers, enlarged front air intake, repositioned front indicators and tail lights, wrap-around rear bumper, twin-electric fans, and refashioned facia and seats.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.
