Lot 119

A 1991 Volkswagen Golf Driver, registration number H277 WYA, red. This local Somerset Volkswagen was supplied by Loders of Yeovil and was serviced by them until late last year. The recorded mileage of 90,000 miles is believed to be correct. The Driver was a cross over model between the GTi and the five door hatchback. The Golf is finished in red and is fitted with a factory sunroof, five speed gearbox, has the original tool kit and first aid kit. V5C, MOT to July 2016 See illustration

Lot 122

A 1955 Ford Thames E83W 10 CWT van, registration number HPR 569, green over black. This charming light commercial was purchased by the vendor from Tites Scrap Yard near Sherborne, Dorset in approximately 1977. When purchased it was signwritten in the livery of Plumbheat Ltd 122 South Street Bridport. A full restoration was carried out over the next six years with a full length sunroof, detachable side signboards and was converted to 12V electrics. Its first trip was to complete the London to Brighton commercial vehicle run which was completed from its home in South Petherton in Somerset up to London and from there to Brighton and back again all in one day. The van has attended numerous classic car events in the South West of England and has always been admired. The vendor advises us that the van has seen very little mileage in the last ten years, starts and runs well and has had a reconditioned gearbox supplied by the Ford Sidevalve Owners Club. The van is offered for auction with an accompanying history file with photographs, expired MOTs, SORNs and general correspondence. V5C, MOT and tax exempt See illustrations

Lot 183

A 1952 Bentley R Type saloon, registration number WXG 975, chassis number B121 RS, engine number B120R, Tudor over shell grey. This R Type has been registered in one family from new. It was originally supplied by Arnetts of Bournemouth, Dorset to the first owner Mr Ingram Spencer the founder of Hamworthy Engineering. On his death the Bentley was registered to his widow and then subsequently to the daughter upon her death. The Bentley is presented in remarkably original condition with the two tone grey coach work and grey piped blue leather interior having a well cared for patinnation. The brakes, clutch, gearbox and engine are said, by the vendor, to be in fine fettle and running and driving well. The accompanying history file contains receipts from Haynes Motor Museum, expired MOTs and a letter from the original owner's daughter which confirms the Bentley's family history. V5C, MOT to April 2016 See illustrations

Lot 132

A 1967 Humber Hawk estate historic rally car, registration number MDD 456F, Burnt almond. This now rare Humber estate has been campaigned by the vendor in various international rallies, including the arduous London to Cape Town Reliability Rally (a grueling 12,000 mile endurance test which passes through 27 countries along the way), and the Lands End to John O'Groats (LeJog) amongst others. In preparation for the London to Cape Town, the Humber was completely stripped and rebuilt with some creature comforts to aid comfort and driver pleasure. These included an air conditioning system, individual front seats, a 20 gallon fuel tank, the chassis was strengthened (with over plates), an oil cooler was fitted, rerouted fuel and brake lines inside the car, adjustable telescopic dampers and springs, and a Rootes floor change four speed gearbox with overdrive was fitted. All of the preparation certainly paid off as the car was very reliable with only minor problems being encountered on the epic journey. Since returning from Cape Town the Humber has seen some of the modifications returned to original specification including refitting of the bench front seat. This well proven historic rally car is offered for auction with a history file containing receipts, photographs of its exploits, magazines, handbooks and correspondence. RF60, V5C, no MOT, tax exempt See illustration

Lot 166

A 1957 Austin Healey 100/6, registration number 525 YUG, chassis number BN4L-O-35815, engine number 26D763760H, Colorado red with white side panels. Introduced in 1956 the 100/6 preceded the original 100. It was revamped with the C Series 2.6 litre straight six engine, replacing the original Austin Atlantic four cylinder engine, had a four speed gearbox, and a lengthened wheelbase from seven feet six inches to seven feet eight inches, which would allow the inclusion of two occasional rear seats in the BN4 variant. Originally a left hand drive export model which was transported to New York in 1957 and then would appear to have spent some time in California until 1975. Little is known until BN4L-O-35815 arrived back on these shores in 1991 via Stanstead Airport minus an engine. The Healey passed through various owners with varying degrees of restoration and maintenance being carried out, including the fitting of an incorrect 2912cc engine, until a major restoration was carried out by marque specialists Bill Rawles Classic Cars in 2012. During the restoration a new correct 2660cc engine was installed due to the previous engine being unserviceable. Further improvements carried out by Bill Rawles include a front disc brake conversion, Mallory distributor, alternator conversion, spin on oil filter kit, new tonneau cover, a full chassis internal Waxoyl treatment, a set of new spinners, all rubber bushes and gaiters were renewed, a new odometer was installed to match a non-matching instrument, new 72 spoke stove enamelled wire wheels and tyres were fitted, a full gearbox rebuild was carried out with overdrive on 3rd and 4th, various body improvements and engine details were carried out to meet concours condition. Since all of this remedial work was carried out the vendor now describes the car as in an excellent concours condition and his views would certainly seem to be justified as the car was awarded second in class (100/6;3000 Mk I and Mk II) at Austin Healey Club International, Farncombe in 2015 (certificate on file). With big Healeys becoming ever more popular with both the old guard and new enthusiasts, this meticulously restored example and concours entrant would certainly be an excellent example to embark on Healey ownership.

Lot 80

A 1976 BMW R75/6, registration number NFW 714P, frame number 4032706, engine number 621141, black. BMW's R75/6 was manufactured for only two years between 1974 and 1976. It features some improvements over its predecessor including a five speed gearbox and front disc brake. This example has seen very little use in recent years as can be seen from the MOTs on file, with ***only 35 (not 25) miles*** being added to the odometer since its last MOT certificate was issued (odometer read 63,435 miles on ***14th November 2014 (not 13th November 2015))***. A matching numbers machine which has stainless steel exhausts but is otherwise in very original condition. The BMW is offered for auction with an accompanying history file.

Lot 1

- Family owned since 1981 - Unrestored original condition - Supplied with a file or receipts and vehicle history Following its replacement of the MGA in 1962, the MGB was steadily updated during its 18 year reign. The MKII of 1967 brought a superior manual gearbox with revised ratios and synchromesh on all gears, as well as the option of a Borg Warner automatic unit. In 1969, Rostyle wheels replaced the previous pressed steel version for standard fit. With the MKIII derivative of 1972 came a new facia and improved heater. However, by far the biggest visual change in the car's history occurred two years later, when steel reinforced rubber bumpers replaced the chrome ones and the ride height was raised by one inch, in deference to the American market where 80 percent of MG B sales were made. By the time GT production ceased in October 1980, a total of 125,282 had been produced. A tidy-looking unrestored MKIII example equipped with the desirable overdrive transmission, 'OVH 262T' is finished in the striking combination of Tahiti Blue paintwork and striped Grey cloth interior trim. It has remained within the same family since 1981 and currently displays just 59,095 miles. The vendor regards the bodywork, paintwork and interior trim as 'fair' and the engine and gearbox as 'OK'.

Lot 10

- 1 of just 405 DBS V8s made (but only c.130 manual cars) - Current family ownership since 1988 but off the road since 2002 - Credible but unwarranted 48,000 miles showing on its 200mph speedometer The William Towns-penned DBS was intended to be a direct replacement for the ageing DB6 and slated to be V8-powered from birth. However, Tadek Marek's now much vaunted engine took longer to develop than expected, so the newcomer was unveiled in 1967 with the straight-six unit of the DB6, with what became known as the DBS V8 finally appearing in 1970. In this form, the newcomer could rush to 60mph in as little as 5.9 seconds and on to c.160mph, making it one of the fastest production cars in the world at that time. This fascinating lot represents the chance to obtain a rare, apparently low mileage Aston Martin part way through restoration. 'YCF 222' is one of just 405 5.3-litre fuel-injected DBS V8s made (only around 130 of which were similarly equipped with ZF manual five-speed transmission) and has remained within the same family since 1988. It was purchased by the vendor's father from Linden Classic Cars, Essex and the advert of the time stated that the Aston had previously been owned by a lady and had a new fuel system, but the bodywork was in need of restoration. In 1993 tenure was assumed by the vendor's brother, at which point it is imagined there was a degree of restoration and the colour was changed from Brown to Green. Ownership passed to the vendor in 1998 who is now putting the car on general sale prior to emigrating. The DBS is thought to be substantially complete but has been partially stripped and is being sold strictly as seen. The odometer currently displays an unwarranted but credible 48,061 miles and the car comes complete with: air conditioning; a 2002 invoice for £1,057.24 detailing work to the gearbox and brakes, engine service and MOT; selection of photos, plus a copy of the aforementioned advert. An unusual opportunity.

Lot 101

- 86,052 recorded miles and offered with an MOT into November 2016 - Original book pack with handbooks and service book containing 26 entries - Previous long term ownership and just treated to new plugs, leads and distributor cap Introduced in October 1983, the Jaguar XJ-S 3.6 was intended to be a sharper, more sporting foil to the range's established, soporific 5.3 litre V12 model. To emphasise the difference, it was fitted with a five-speed manual Getrag gearbox as standard. With some 225bhp and 240lbft of torque on tap courtesy of its 3590cc DOHC 24 valve straight-six, the claimed 140mph top speed and 0-60mph time of 7.4 seconds were a near match for the V12. Yet when such performance was not called upon, it could reputedly return thirty miles per gallon, a feat beyond the V12's capabilities. A revised, more positive feel to the power steering improved the handling still further. Finished in Metallic Red with Beige leather upholstery, 'H92 ARR' is an automatic example that displays 86,052 miles to its odometer. Riding on alloy wheels, the Jaguar pleasingly retains its original book pack, handbooks, collection of old MOT certificates and service book containing no less than 26 entries. Belonging to its previous keeper from 1996 to 2015, the XJ-S has just been treated to a new distributor cap, plug leads and spark plugs and is offered for sale with a current MOT certificate valid into November 2016.

Lot 113

- Desirable 'wide body' model, 2.8 litre engine with 5 speed manual transmission - 3 previous keepers, 76,700 recorded miles and original book pack - Extensive service history and MOT'd into March 2016 'S102 BEJ' is a rare wide-bodied example of the popular Z3 sports model manufactured by BMW from 1995 to 2002. It is a 1998 build car powered by the company's silky-smooth 2.8-litre straight-six engine and drives through a five-speed manual gearbox. The car is finished in Dark Metallic Blue that's complemented by Cream-coloured leather interior trim. The vendor informs us that the electrically-operated hood is so watertight that it didn't even leak when his wife submitted it to a car wash, and that the air conditioning system is 'fully operational and effective'. He tells us that the battery and Continental tyres are 'excellent', that the space saver spare 'has never been used' and that the toolkit is 'original and complete'. He finds the engine 'smooth and powerful' and sums up by saying 'the Z goes extremely well, is a pleasure to drive, and returns 33mpg on a run'. He currently grades the bodywork, interior trim, engine and transmission as 'excellent' and the paintwork as 'very good', and is offering the three-owner 76,700-mile BMW complete with Alpine sound system and CD multi-changer, fully stamped service book, selection of invoices and an MOT valid to March 18th 2016.

Lot 115

PLEASE NOTE: This vehicle has a new MOT   - Imported from the US in 2011 and one of the rare limited edition Chalon models - Wide wheel arches, Fuchs wheels and subject to past restoration work - 41,000 recorded miles and offered with a fresh MOT By the late 1960s, Porsche was looking for a replacement for its 912, while Volkswagen needed a substitute for the Karmann Ghia. The collaborative solution was the 914/4 and 914/6 born in 1969. Both versions carried the Porsche badge in the USA, but the 914/6 was discontinued in 1972. The gap in the line-up was then filled by a second Volkswagen-engined model powered by a 95bhp 2.0-litre version of the company's fuel-injected Type 4 unit. 914/4 production ceased in 1976 after in excess of 115,646 examples had been made, making it Porsche's best-selling model by that time. This left-hand drive example was imported from the US in 2011 and is one of the rare limited edition Chalon models complete with: Fuchs wheels, wide wheel arches; uprated five-stud running gear, braking system and exhaust; and pair of twin-choke carburetors. 'SVR 437H' is presented in Black inside and out and currently exhibits an unwarranted 41,000 miles. The vendor informs us that the Porsche was restored in 2010, the electrics have been overhauled and the 914 boasts many new parts. He now classes the bodywork and interior trim as 'excellent', the 2-litre engine and paintwork as 'very good' and the five-speed manual gearbox as 'good'.

Lot 120

- Illustrious racing history with the VSCC, VMCC and Morgan Three-Wheeler Club - Recently emerged from an extensive mechanical and cosmetic restoration - Nicknamed 'The Atomic Orange', c.70bhp but remains road usable By 1933 Morgan's three-wheeler chassis could be ordered with four types of body, namely: Super Sports, Sports Two-Seater, Sports Family and Family. The Super Sports was notable for its chromium-plated exhaust pipes that run the length of the body. Interest in Morgans of this period has never waned and, if anything, increased in recent times - the company's inspired decision to create a modern three-wheeler having brought the early cars to the attention of a new audience. The road-going Morgan Super Sports on offer is very well known within the VSCC, VMC and Morgan Thee-Wheeler (M3W) clubs, having an illustrious racing history comprising many race and two Morgan championship victories. Generally referred to as the 'Atomic Orange' (on account of its colour and performance), Chassis D743 was apparently manufactured in 1933 yet not road registered as 'TJ 9536' until March 29th 1935. It has recently been treated to a comprehensive restoration during which the 1220cc JAP V-twin engine and three-speed manual gearbox were overhauled by a recognised specialist, the two-seater body was repainted, and a new leather interior installed. The vendor informs us that with around 70bhp on tap in what is a very light car, the Morgan 'remains highly competitive in historic racing yet is still practical with battery, lighting, self-starter and reverse gear for road use'. He says it is 'a head turner on the road and in the paddock and has featured in many magazines and shows'. He currently classes the bodywork, paintwork and interior trim as 'excellent' and the engine and transmission as 'very good' and is now offering the Super Sports complete with: a copy of the Lancashire County Council registration; VSCC and M3W eligibility certificates; current V5C; and a selection of spare parts including a pair of racing wheels and tyres and a set of tuned exhaust pipes.

Lot 124

- Offered with extensive history file of old MOT's and invoices - 84,000 recorded miles and MOT'd into April 2016 - Recently serviced and offered with hardtop The Stag was styled by Italian maestro Giovanni Michelotti and featured independent suspension, disc/drum brakes and power-assisted rack and pinion steering plus an all-new OHC V8 of 3-litre capacity. 'SJD 800R' was manufactured in 1977 and an accompanying list of expenditure right through to the present day confirms it has received suitably regular attention. The engine was apparently overhauled in 2003/2004 and the Triumph sports a wooden dashboard, stainless steel exhaust system and both soft- and hardtop roofs. Over £3,000 has been invested in the car during the last year alone with work including a thorough service: cylinder block / radiator flushed, fresh coolant, gearbox oil renewed and engine oil / filter changed etc not to mention the installation of an oil cooler and re-plumped seats courtesy of new foam. The Stag features gleaming Inca Yellow bodywork teamed with Black interior trim, and is currently viewed by the vendor as having 'very good-excellent' bodywork and 'very good' paintwork, interior trim, V8 engine, automatic transmission and soft- / hardtop roofs (the latter costing nearly £2,000). This handsome Stag comes complete with extensive history file of invoices and old MOTs, plus one valid to April 15th 2016.

Lot 135

- An older restoration which still presents very well - Early pull handle example and current ownership since 1989 - Recent service and mechanical fettling totalling £907.45 Initially, the B was only available in Roadster form - the hatchback GT derivative not being offered until 1965. Suspension was by wishbones and coil springs at the front and a live axle mounted on leaf springs at the rear. Damping was by lever arm units all round. Braking was by discs at the front and drums at the rear. At launch, the model was powered by a three-bearing version of the 1798cc B-Series engine that produced 95bhp at 5,400rpm. However, with an eye on superior reliability, this unit was replaced by a five-bearing one two years into production. An older restoration which still presents very well, this early 'pull handle' example with three-bearing crank has been in the current ownership since 1989. Bought as an unfinished restoration project by the vendor the body was then painted in two pac and the engine and gearbox were overhauled. After being in long term dry storage the MG has recently been recommissioned at the cost of £907.45. This has included attention being paid to the brakes, clutch, carburettors and new batteries being fitted. Showing as having seven previous keepers and displaying 62,500 miles, '802 JWA' is offered with a MOT certificate into September 2016.

Lot 137

- Desirable 'Big Valve' engine, V5C shows two former keepers - Recently recommissioned (water pump, brake callipers, donuts etc) - Believed genuine 55,000 miles, Oatmeal trim, MOT'd till July 2016 Lotus first applied the Elan name to its small two-seater Roadster of 1962. It comprised a steel backbone chassis clothed in a lightweight fiberglass body. Power came from a 1558cc Cosworth twin-cam version of Ford's ubiquitous 'Kent' engine. With independent suspension all-round and four-wheel disc brakes, the Elan was both light and nimble. It was, however, rather lacking in space and in June 1967 Lotus introduced the Elan +2 Coupe for those that needed more accommodation. Based on a suitably lengthened/widened version of its smaller sibling's chassis, the newcomer enjoyed both better aerodynamics and superior grip (thanks to a 0.30 drag co-efficient and six-inch wider track/fatter tyres). And, as the name suggests, it offered two extra seats - in the company's own words, "The +2 is designed to carry two adults and two children on a long holiday in comfort." The +2S 130/4 version went on sale in February 1971, bringing with it a welcome a welcome boost in performance. Powered by a 'Big Valve' version of the same twin-cam engine, the +2 was now capable of 121mph and 0-60mph in a spirited 7.4 seconds. This right-hand drive +2S 130/4 vacated the Hethel factory in 1973 and is finished in the tasteful combination of Silver over Deep Red. The vendor informs us that it has had just three keepers to date, including himself, and that the condition of the original interior trim is commensurate with the odometer's low indicated mileage of just 54,800 over 43 years. Recent recommissioning that followed a period of storage included replacement brake callipers and drive shaft doughnuts. The vendor advises that the Lotus currently 'runs and drives very well' and that he considers the bodywork, paintwork, Oatmeal-coloured interior trim, 'Big Valve' engine and four-speed manual gearbox to all be in 'good' order.

Lot 138

- 1 of just 943 RHD examples made and supplied new to Australia - Restored to concours standard in Sydney during 2007 - Matching numbers car, original colours and recently repatriated Famously launched at the 1961 Geneva Salon, the Jaguar E-Type created a furore. With its stunning looks, outrageous performance and low 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 (torsion-bar front / coil-sprung rear) rack and pinion steering and four-wheel disc brakes gave it excellent road holding and 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. Responding to popular demand, the Coventry marque had footwell recesses pressed into the model's previously 'flat-floor' platform so that it could accommodate taller drivers / passengers; a change that occurred on right-hand drive Roadsters from chassis 850358 onwards. We are very grateful to the vendor for supplying the following description: 'Dispatched from the factory on 21st February 1962, chassis number 850375 was the ninth earliest Right Hand Drive roadster to be delivered to Australia. It was freighted to the Australian Distributor, Bryson Industries in the State of Victoria, and from their custody it was sold new, first registered on 10th April 1962. With all matching numbers, the vehicle was restored in Sydney during 2007 to Concours standards and still presents in excellent condition and drives superbly. The vendor adds the following important points; fully matching numbers car, early aluminium dashboard, 4 speed Moss gearbox, original Carmen Red with Biscuit leather trim, extensive history file, Jaguar Heritage certificate'.

- Original registration number and a credible but unwarranted 38,500 miles - Rare 'Deluxe' version with reclining front seats and floor change gearbox - History file including original logbook and 'no advisories' MOT Vauxhall's Victor was developed through five iterations from 1957 to 1978. While the F Series unashamedly echoed GM's American styling of the period, the ensuing FB Series of 1961 had much cleaner, more European lines. With it came corrosion protection, a higher compression engine delivering 49.5bhp, and the option of a four-speed all-synchromesh gearbox with floor change. The FB reigned until 1964, by which time 328,640 examples had been produced. The smartly-presented sale car is a 1962 Deluxe FB Saloon finished in the pleasing combination of Honey Gold over Polar White. Its impressive specification includes a heater, individual reclining front seats, and the aforementioned transmission. Though unwarranted, the indicated mileage is a very credible 38,449. The vendor informs us that 'the overall structure of the car is in excellent order; the vehicle drives effortlessly; the engine, drive train and running gear have been maintained to a very high standard; the brightwork is in super, original condition; and the beige interior has the most wonderful patina'. A full service has recently been carried out and the Vauxhall is being offered complete with original logbook, old MOTs, and receipts for work carried out. A true, time-warp British classic.

Lot 140

- Described as being in 'good to very good overall' condition - Said to start and drive 'very well' - Offered with handbook, workshop manual and old MOT certificates It is understood that the Super Minx launched in 1961 was initially intended to replace the Series III versions of the standard Minx, but was ultimately sold as a more up-market model alongside the so-called Audax cars. The Saloon variant reigned for seven years and through four different marks, the first three of which were powered by a 1592cc engine and the last by a 1725cc unit. Aimed at the top end of the family car market, the Super Minx was more spacious than the ordinary Minx and featured somewhat more elaborate trim. A 1962 example tested by Motor returned a top speed of 80mph and a 0-60mph time of 21.6 seconds. The MKII manual transmission Super Minx being offered is from the same year and sports White over Brown bodywork matched to Brown and Cream interior trim. The vendor regards the bodywork, interior, four-cylinder engine and four-speed gearbox as all being in 'very good' order and the two-tone paintwork as 'good'. He informs us that 'ZV 36733' 'starts and drives very well and that everything works as it should'. The Hillman is being sold complete with owners' handbook, workshop manual and a number of old test certificates.

- 1 of just 1,137 RHD (DC72) examples made, Getrag 'dog leg' gearbox, LSD - Recently MOT'd following prolonged storage and rated as 'a wonderful driver's car' - Would benefit from further recommissioning, Alpina badging / alloys The distinctive-looking M535i was introduced at the 1984 Paris Salon and based on BMW's mechanically identical E28-series 535i, but set apart by its M-Technic aero package. This comprised: deep front air dam; side valance; rear diffuser and spoiler; wheel arch extensions; and body-coloured bumpers. Inside there was an M-badged steering wheel and M-badged sports seats, just to remind you that you were driving something a little special. Some examples were also equipped with such desirable additions as the M-Technic chassis package (firmer Bilstein dampers, shorter springs and stiffer anti-roll bars); close-ratio Getrag gearbox with dog-leg change; and limited slip differential. Power came from the proven M30 3430cc straight-six in 218bhp/224lbft tune. When fully equipped, an M535i provided much of the fun of an M5 for a fraction of the price. 'B293 YYT' is such an example that sports Diamond Black bodywork, Grey cloth upholstery and Alpina wheels/badges. 1 of just 1,137 RHD (DC72) cars made, it was recently granted an MOT following long term dry storage, but the vendor recommends further recommissioning before further hard use. He currently grades the bodywork, engine and transmission as 'good', the paintwork as 'average-good' and the interior trim as 'poor'.

Lot 143

- Credible but unwarranted recorded mileage of 70,000 - Recent service, timing belt change and gearbox overhaul - MOT'd till Sep 2016, Black leather, much underrated sportscar Penned by legendary stylist Marcello Gandini, Bertone's Autobianchi Runabout concept car directly inspired the targa-roofed Fiat X1/9. Initially powered by a 1290cc engine allied to four-speed manual transmission, the arrival of a larger 1498cc powerplant and five-speed gearbox during 1978 brought 110mph performance. Great fun to drive, the X1/9 was built by both Fiat (1972-1982) and Bertone (1982-1989). According to its accompanying warranty / maintenance book, this particular RHD example was delivered to Fiat Auto UK Ltd (Channel Island Sales) on 13th April 1987. Although not UK road registered until the following year, service stamps suggest that the X1/9 had covered 52,700 miles by October 1992. Currently displaying an unwarranted but credible 70,000 miles to its odometer (seemingly less than 4,000 of which have been accrued over the past decade), the two-seater appears to retain much of its original Metallic Beige over Black paintwork and Black leather upholstery. Various invoices on file indicate the Fiat has been treated to a recent service and timing belt change, while the vendor informs us that it has also benefited from a gearbox overhaul. Offered for sale without reserve and MOT'd till September 2016, this appealing mid-engined sportscar comes with owner's handbook, workshop manual and owners' club literature.

Lot 145

- Extensively restored / uprated in 2003 and little used since - Dunnell Zetec 16v engine, 2000E gearbox, upgraded brakes etc - History file includes original invoice from Candor Motors Ltd (May 1968) This smartly-presented MKI Escort started life in May 1968 as an unpretentious 1300cc Super. Now it is an altogether different kettle of automotive fish and clearly capable of springing all sorts of surprises on the road, and probably the track too. Uprated suspension gives it a lower, meaner stance and we understand the modified braking system includes discs at the rear as well as the front. In place of the original Kent engine lurks a far more exciting Dunnell 2-litre Zetec unit, complete with wrapped stainless steel exhaust manifold. The passenger cell abounds with competition-orientated modifications, including: roll cage; Corbeau racing seats; Luke four-point harnesses; Sparco pedals; battery master switch; leather-rimmed alloy steering wheel; and OMEX rev-counter. Where the luggage used to sit are housed the competition fuel system, alloy petrol tank and battery. Outside you'll find a period door mirror and a set of very smart Ford alloy wheels. 'YWC 587F' is now looking for a suitably appreciative new home and comes complete with its original sales invoice, plus a large collection of other bills; including some from MKI Escort specialist Burton Power. Always popular and still winning on track and rally stage alike, MKI Escorts are now highly collectable.

Lot 146

- The subject of past restoration work, Surrey Top - Home market car with extensive history file - Touring kit (bulbs etc) and MOT'd until May 2016 Codenamed 'Zest', the TR4 was introduced in 1961. Though, based on the chassis and drivetrain of its much-loved TR3A predecessor, the newcomer cut a far more modern dash thanks to its all-new Michelotti-styled body. Power was provided by Triumph's proven 2138cc OHV four-cylinder engine, while mechanical updates included a wider track front and rear, rack and pinion steering and all-synchromesh gearbox. The optional overdrive was now made to operate on second and third gears as well as top. The final iteration of the TR4 was the TR4A, introduced in 1965. This embodied a number of small styling changes and upgrades to the specification but, more pertinently, some 75 percent of TR4As were equipped with independent rear suspension (IRS). The right-hand drive, 'home market' TR4A on offer is one of the desirable IRS cars. Built in 1965, it is finished in Red with Black leather upholstery and a Surrey top. Self-evidently the subject of past restoration work, the Triumph rides on wire wheels and sports BRDC, BARC and Le Mans Classic emblems to its wooden dashboard. Reportedly accompanied by 'an inches thick history file and touring kit (spare bulbs etc)', 'HLW 978C' also possesses a MOT certificate valid until May 2016.

Lot 147

- Finished in Sapphire Blue with cream leather interior - Reconditioned engine just fitted and retrimmed front seats - Offered with original handbooks and MOT'd into September 2016 Like the E-Type before it, the XK8 made its debut at the Geneva Salon - that of 1996 - and from launch was available in either Coupe or Convertible guise. At the time of the newcomer's unveiling, Jaguar Cars was owned by Ford, as was Aston Martin, and it made sound economic sense for the XK8 and similarly targeted DB7 to share the same platform. Prior to 2003, power for the XK8 was provided by a normally aspirated 4.0 litre version of Jaguar's DOHC V8 AJ26 engine. Finished in Sapphire Blue with Ivory leather interior, this particular example shows four previous keepers on its V5C Registration Document and the vendor informs us that the XK8 previously belonged to the proprietor of a Ford dealership. Recently treated to a reconditioned engine and re-trimmed front seats, the Convertible is also understood to have benefited from a full valet and detailing. Described by the vendor as 'excellent' with regard to its engine, automatic gearbox, interior and paintwork, this stylish Jaguar is offered for sale with handbooks and MOT certificate valid to September 2016.

Lot 149

- Offered with original bill of sale, sale brochure and collection of old MOT's / invoices - 74,000 recorded miles and last on the road in 2010 - 5 previous keepers and current ownership since 2001 Following its replacement of the MGA in 1962, the MGB was steadily updated during its 18 year reign. The MKII of 1967 brought a superior manual gearbox with revised ratios and synchromesh on all gears, as well as the option of a Borg Warner automatic unit. In 1969, Rostyle wheels replaced the previous pressed steel version for standard fit. With the MKIII derivative of 1972 came a new facia and improved heater. However, by far the biggest visual change in the car's history occurred two years later, when steel reinforced rubber bumpers replaced the chrome ones and the ride height was raised by one inch, in deference to the American market where 80 percent of MG B sales were made. By the time GT production ceased in October 1980, a total of 125,282 had been produced. Finished in the striking combination of Vermillion Orange paintwork with striped Grey cloth interior trim, 'VEU 97T' has been in current ownership since 2001, displays 74,000 miles to its odometer and was last on the road in 2010. Offered with its original bill of sale, collection of old MOT's plus invoices and original MG sale brochure, 'VEU 97T' will require recommissioning before returning to the road.

Lot 151

- LHD, original Red upholstery, overdrive, credible but unwarranted 67,000 miles - Repainted a few years ago and more recently treated to new wire wheels - Engine and gearbox said to be 'strong', NOVA declared and MOT'd till Sep 2016 A significant step in terms of 'Big Healey' evolution and foundation block for one of the 1960s' most charismatic rally cars, the 3000 MKI was introduced in March 1959. Powered by an enlarged 2912cc version of BMC's C-Series straight-six engine that developed some 124bhp and 167lbft of torque, it could be had in two-seater (BN7) or 2+2 seater (BT7) configurations. Progressively improved, the 3000 metamorphosed through MKII and MKIIa guises before the arrival of the ultimate MKIII BJ8 in October 1963. Boasting a centre console, proper convertible hood, wood veneer dashboard, redesigned exhaust system and wind-up windows, the 2+2 seater BJ8 proved a comfortable and fast grand tourer. With engine output boosted to 148bhp and 165lbft of torque thanks to a new camshaft and better valve springs etc, its reputed 124mph top speed was accessed via a four-speed manual gearbox. Last of the line, the Phase Two variant benefited from redesigned rear suspension, strengthened splined hubs and larger diameter front disc brakes. Finished in Old English White with Red vinyl upholstery, this particular left-hand drive example has not long been imported to the UK from Georgia. Reportedly NOVA declared and duty paid, the Austin-Healey is described by the vendor thus: 'A very solid and straight BJ8 that still carries its original interior and hood which are both in good order. Although, not warranted the low recorded mileage of 67,000 is commensurate with the overall condition. The car underwent a re-spray a few years ago and has been fitted with chrome wire wheels more recently. The engine is strong and the four-speed transmission, with functioning overdrive, is very good'. Seemingly well suited to Continental touring, this appealing left-hand drive Big Healey is offered for sale with MOT certificate valid until September 2016 and NOVA reference number.

Lot 18

- LHD example imported to the UK in 2002, Tan leather upholstery - Recent replacement clutch, exhaust, suspension spheres and carpets - Five-speed manual gearbox, said to 'drive very well', MOT'd till Aug 2016 The DS's Flaminio Bertoni-penned body was a stunning sight in the austere world of the '50s. Its self-levelling hydropneumatic suspension was also way ahead of its time, delivering a ride that many manufacturers would be grateful for even now. The newcomer was powered by an updated version of the OHV four-cylinder unit previously found in the Traction Avant. The gearbox was mounted ahead of the engine and the differential sandwiched between the two. Some 1.5 million D Series CitroÙns were produced and the model immortalised in such films as The Day of the Jackal. This left-hand drive D Super 5 came to the UK in 2002. The bodywork was Beige originally, but is now finished in the attractive combination of Silver over Burgundy that's teamed with a Tan leather interior. In recent times the clutch, exhaust system, hyropneumatic suspension spheres and carpets have all been replaced. The vendor informs us that the DS 'drives very well' and has enjoyed 'an excellent rolling restoration'. He currently regards the 2.2-litre engine, five-speed manual gearbox and interior trim as 'good' and the bodywork and paintwork as 'average'. He is now selling 'BWP 776M' complete with numerous old MOTs and one valid to August 18th 2016.

- Former Porsche Cars (GB) Press Car and 58,000 recorded miles - 20 service stamps, last cambelt change @ 52,766 miles - Certificate of Authenticity, leather upholstery and MOT till April 2016 The S2 saw the light of day in 1989, by which time the normally aspirated engine had grown to 3.0-litres in capacity. A total of 4,000 Cabriolet variants were produced before the 944 model range was superseded by the 968 in 1991. This decidedly handsome example started life on Porsche's UK press fleet before being acquired by a Simon Jones of St Helier, Jersey. The comprehensive service record (20 stamps) confirms it remained on the island until at least 2006 before returning to the mainland. The Porsche is finished in the attractive combination of colour-coded Alpine White bodywork, Blue hood and Blue leather upholstery, and rides on 17-inch Turbo hollow-spoke alloy wheels. It boasts an extensive specification including: electric hood; factory tonneau; headlamp washers; electrically-operated sports seats, windows, and heated door mirrors; Porsche floor mats; central locking/immobiliser; and JVC radio/CD player. It is currently viewed by the vendor as having 'very good' bodywork, paintwork, four-cylinder engine and five-speed manual gearbox, and 'good' interior trim. It is now being offered complete with warranted mileage of 58,000 (the service history confirms a cambelt change at 52,766), Porsche Certificate of Authenticity, and MOT valid to April 10th 2016. A seemingly very pleasing proposition.

Lot 23

- 1 owner from new, highly original and 'pin sharp' to drive - Chassis, brake and suspension replacement / overhaul by Miles Wilkins - Notably good panel fit, numerous rare features and 'no advisories' MOT The brainchild of Ron Hickman, Lotus's Elan was introduced at the 1962 Earls Court Motor Show and promptly redefined its class in terms of ride, handling and performance. One of the most desirable versions, the S4, arrived in March 1968. Characterised by its wider wheelarches, revised interior and brake servo, the variant was capable of 0-60mph in 7.8 seconds and a top speed of over 120mph. With more power (118bhp) and a close-ratio gearbox, SE derivatives were quicker still. The delightfully unmolested S4 SE Fixed Head Coupe being sold is a 1969 model finished in Lotus Yellow and trimmed in Black vinyl. Its somewhat unkempt appearance belies the fact that 'VUW 898G' is a genuine one owner car that has seen regular use. Moreover, under the careworn paintwork lies a galvanized Lotus replacement chassis, the installation of which formed part of an extensive 'nut and bolt' restoration of the running gear by leading marque specialist Miles Wilkins of Fibreglass Services. Lotus OEM parts were used wherever possible and the car's history file contains related invoices approaching £10,000 in value. A true enthusiast, the Fixed Head Coupe's sole registered keeper was careful to preserve its speed blade wipers, small thumb-latch boot handle, Special Equipment sill strips, interior chrome coat hooks, dashboard, crash pad and original locks (one key fits all). Built before a factory fire distorted the Elan's body moulds, the S4 enjoys notably good panel fit / gaps. The vendor currently grades the DOHC engine and four-speed manual gearbox as 'very good', the original bodywork and interior trim as 'good' and the paintwork as 'average'. He tells us that 'VUW 898G' drives notably well and is offering the car complete with a plethora of old MOTs plus the aforementioned bills. Thus, the next keeper can decide whether to complete the restoration or just enjoy this well-sorted example as is.

- 1 of c.356 made and among the best driving TVR models - Reputedly capable of 0-60mph in 4.4 seconds and 160mph plus - Main dealer and marque specialist service history, MOT'd till Sep 2016 TVR manufactured the Tamora between 2002 and 2006, during which time around just 356 were produced. It is widely considered to be one of the company's best driving models and, according to Autocar magazine, could achieve the benchmark sprint to 60mph in a lightening 4.2 seconds and top 170mph flat out - figures that wouldn't disgrace a supercar of today. The 350bhp and 290lbft of torque on tap were provided by a 3605cc version of TVR's in-house straight-six so called 'Speed Six' engine that was mated to a five-speed manual gearbox. Braking was by sizeable discs front and back operated by AP callipers, while the suspension comprised racing-style double wishbones at all corners. This macho-looking entry level Convertible was designed by Lee Hodgetts and Darren Hobbs and designed to fill the gap left by the departing Chimaera and Griffith models. When new, the Tamora was priced at £43,460. The very attractively-presented right-hand drive example now offered is finished in Titanio Grigio Pearl (that's Titanium Grey Pearl in non-TVR speak) matched to a Nimbus and Portland Grey interior - considered the combination of choice by many aficionados. The unmarked seven-spoked 16x7-inch alloy wheels are shod with Toyo Y-rated tyres. Other items of note among the car's impressive specification include: sports exhaust; upgraded alloy radiator; electronically-controlled doors, windows and mirrors; Black mohair hood with glass screen; adjustable steering column; Thatcham security; air conditioning; central locking; and CD player. 'LG52 CYO' currently displays a total of 48,000 miles and is considered by the vendor to have 'excellent' interior trim and 'very good' bodywork, paintwork, DOHC engine and manual transmission. The TVR is now offered for sale complete with service history courtesy of both franchise dealers and marque specialists. A relatively rare and exciting opportunity for the many enthusiasts of this much loved British marque.

Lot 26

- Two owners from new & 22,800 recorded miles - Offered with original handbooks, invoices and old MOT's - MOT'd into September 2016 Mercedes-Benz's SLK was introduced in 1997 as a competitor for the Porsche Boxster and BMW Z3 and was among the first models to feature an electro-hydraulic retractable hardtop. The first generation examples (codename R170) were manufactured until 2004, when they were superseded by the substantially revised R171-Series. This longer wheelbase model brought many revisions including: sharper styling; a galvanised, stiffer bodyshell; two-stage airbags; a faster-folding retractable roof; fabric wind-blocker; a new range of engines that began with a 1.8-litre supercharged unit; and the option of seven-speed automatic transmission. The punchy new powerplant was capable of whisking the revised two-seater to 62mph in 7.9 seconds and on to c.143mph. 'PK54 NZM' is a right-hand drive R171-Series example from the first year of production and is equipped with the aforementioned supercharged 1.8-litre engine coupled to the new automatic gearbox. It is very tidily-presented in Silver matched to a Black leather interior and has had just two owners to date who, between them, have apparently accumulated a mere 22,800 miles. The baby Benz now seeks a suitably caring new home and is being offered complete with its original handbooks, collection of invoices and old MOTs, plus one valid to September 26th 2016.

Lot 34

- 1 of c.500 examples made and museum displayed for many years - Credible but only unwarranted 37,000 miles - Dark Green hide, pre-selector transmission, good running order Popular among the types of DB18 were the three-seater Special Sports Drophead Coupes built by Barker between 1948 and 1952, of which some 500 were constructed. Topping the sturdy steel ladder chassis was a hand-beaten aluminium body, paired with heavy gauge steel wings. Power came from an in-line OHV six-cylinder engine of 2522cc that, courtesy of a high compression aluminium head and twin carburettors, produced 85bhp. This was mated to a four-speed Wilson pre-selector gearbox and the comprehensive specification included such mechanical niceties as automatic chassis lubrication and integral jacking. This splendid-looking example recently hailed from the Highlands of Scotland, but previously lived in Bristol and Chelmsford before spending many years in a Spanish museum; hence the credible (but unwarranted) overall mileage of 37,000. It is finished in two-tone Green and trimmed in Dark Green hide, and the vendor informs us that the engine bay is in 'show condition', the body and brightwork 'are excellent with no rust', the inside 'luxurious with soft Green seats and new carpets', and the hood 'in virtually new condition'. He believes there 'is nothing that currently needs attention', and is selling the Daimler complete with various items of paperwork and an original handbook.

Lot 35

- Number 22 from a limited production run and 1 of just 390 for the UK - Offered with original bookpack and service book containing 14 entries - Described as 'excellent' with regards to the paintwork, engine and interior Unveiled in 1993 and much-vaunted by the motoring media, the special edition Clio Williams was a nod to the relationship between Renault and the Williams F1 team to whom Renault was supplying engines, and sparked by the company's desire to homologate a 2.0-litre race engine. Evolved from the 1.8-litre Clio 16S unit, the 150bhp powerplant featured uprated valves, camshaft, exhaust manifold etc. It drove through a modified JC5 gearbox and the chassis benefited from firmer than standard suspension and a wider front track. A total of 5,400 examples were produced over two years in three generations, 390 of which were made especially for the UK market. One of the first of these iconic pocket rockets made, the sale car (No.22) has had seven owners to date and is smartly presented in the correct combination of Sports Blue paintwork and Gold-coloured eight-spoke Speedline wheels. The interior still boasts its 'W' monogrammed grey cloth seats and Blue Williams-branded floor mats. 'L580 BGV' is now offered complete with book pack containing 14 service stamps, old MOTs, load-cover with integral suit-carrier and original Hamilton & Palmer security system. MOT'd until 25th November 2016, the vendor regards the Clio as having 'excellent' bodywork, paintwork, interior trim, four-cylinder engine and five-speed manual gearbox.

- Modified in period by racing driver Sid Hurrell of SAH Accessories - 40DCOE Weber carbs, stainless steel exhaust and adjustable gas dampers - Subject to an extensive restoration and current ownership since 2002 Introduced in late 1968, the TR6 was effectively a cleverly updated TR5. Triumph initially turned to Michelotti for the body revisions - the Italian maestro who styled the TR4/TR5 - however he couldn't meet their schedule and the changes were ultimately achieved by Karmann. A total of 94,619 TR6s were produced, a mere 8,370 of which were sold on the home market. This very pretty-looking TR6 was supplied new in 1971 complete with conversion by SAH Accessories - the tuning shop operated by racing driver Sid A Hurrell was synonymous with modified Triumphs of the period. Just prior to the vendor's purchase from a Triumph dealer in 2002, it was treated to an extensive restoration, at which point it gained the following: 40DCOE Weber carburettors, stainless steel exhaust system, overdrive in third and top gears, adjustable gas dampers, uprated front anti-roll bar, five new wire wheels, skid plate, hood and tonneau covers, detachable wind deflector and storage bag. Finished in the pleasing combination of Green bodywork and Tan-coloured interior, 'DUB 548K is currently described by the vendor as having 'excellent' bodywork, paintwork, interior trim, six-cylinder engine and manual gearbox. An unrestored Works hardtop is available by separate negotiation.

Lot 4

- 1 of just 2,591 factory V8's - Offered with history file containing numerous old invoices and MOTs - Benefitting from a recent service and MOT'd into October 2016 A more powerful alternative to the standard MG B came in 1973 with the introduction of the V8 - a GT-only variant powered by the ubiquitous 3528cc Rover V8 unit. Inspired by the conversions carried out by independent tuner Ken Costello, the factory cars produced 137bhp - sufficient output for a sprightly 0-60mph time of around eight seconds and top speed of 125 mph. Production of the V8 was curtailed in 1976 after some 2,591 had been built. 'SRW 237M' is a tidy-looking home market example that hails from the first year of production. It sports Red bodywork complemented by Black interior trim and was the subject of a restoration c.2004. The vendor acquired the V8 in 2012 and has since treated it to a regular programme of maintenance eg: a new fuel tank was installed in 2012; new batteries fitted in 2014; and £375.50 was invested this October on a service and mechanical repairs. The odometer currently stands at an unwarranted 141,055 and this well-equipped B is being offered complete with: overdrive gearbox; full length Webasto sunroof; woodrim steering wheel; large collection of invoices from marque specialists; and numerous old MOTs, plus one valid to October 22nd 2016.
