Registration - GDW565WChassis - GCATWM010920M.O.T. - ExemptOdometer - 9.512 Here we have a very smartly presented MKII RS2000 Custom that’s finished in the discreetly attractive combination of Nordic Blue bodywork and light beige interior trim. It was apparently stored for 10 years by the previous owner and has travelled a mere 200 miles in the last 14. However, it has been the subject of much attention, including a full engine and gearbox rebuild four years ago by Burton Power, during which the motor was fitted with a brand-new pair of Weber carburettors. Among the many other items replaced are: the brake system, front and rear dampers, and the upholstery which was installed by Aldridge Trimming of Wolverhampton. Additions to the standard specification include power-assisted steering by Burton Power and a Pandora Elite alarm system. The vendor currently classes the Pinto engine, five-speed manual gearbox and upholstery as ‘excellent’, and the two-door bodywork and paintwork as ‘good’. He is now offering the fast Ford complete with: upgraded sound system, jack, spare wheel, and a history file containing old MOTs, plus invoices and photos in support of the work carried out. Ford’s long awaited MKII RS2000 was launched at the 1975 Earls Court show. Based on the two-door saloon, it was the most luxurious of the sporting Escorts of the time, and was powered by an uprated version of the 2.0-litre SOHC Pinto unit employed in the Capri, Cortina and Granada – a four-into-two exhaust manifold coupled to a big bore exhaust system raising its output to 110bhp. This was sufficient to help sprint the Escort to 60mph in 8.5 secs and on to a top speed of almost 110mph. The foam-filled plastic snout and flexible rear spoiler were said to give a significant reduction in drag. The custom version offered from late 1978 onwards featured the following: fishnet headrests on Recaro seats, full door cards, clock, centre console, 6Jx13in RS alloy wheels, boot carpet, remote-control driver’s door mirror, black rear body panel. In summary:A handsome six-keeper example that’s driven 200 miles in 14 yearsEngine, transmission, brakes and interior all recently rebuiltComes complete with power steering and aftermarket alarm system

Registration - YSJ 491Chassis No. - BB31.3534M.O.T. - ExemptOdometer - 9,601The vendor bought this B31 from a friend in 1999. It was in pieces at the time and he’s since restored it to the current condition. The gearbox was completely rebuilt by a specialist, as were the front forks. The rear suspension units have also been fully overhauled, the frame powder-coated and all the nuts and bolts replaced with stainless steel items purchased from BSA dealer Lightning Spares of Sale. The vendor volunteers that the primary drive, which was the subject of an older restoration, would now benefit from some attention, and that the whole machine deserves a degree of recommissioning. In summary he presently rates the frame, suspension and red paintwork as ‘excellent’, the cycle parts as ‘good’, and the single-cylinder 350cc engine, four-speed gearbox and brightwork as ‘average’. ‘YSJ 491’ comes complete with a selection of spares and a modest history file containing its original BSA service sheets, photographs etc. Based on pre-war designs, BSA’s B31 was the company’s first offering following the cessation of hostilities. It was powered by a single-cylinder four-stroke engine of 350cc and c.17bhp. Swinging arm rear suspension was introduced in 1954 and the model continued in production until 1959.

Registration - RB07 SCOChassis - JF1GDFKH37G069764M.O.T. - December 2023Odometer - 30,500 In 2007 Subaru UK importers IM Group paid tribute to the late 2001 World Rally Champion Richard Burns by collaborating with Prodrive to develop the RB320, a special limited-edition of the all-wheel-drive Impreza WRX STI. The ‘320’ not only referred to the 320bhp the car’s Prodrive-tuned flat-four 2457cc turbocharged engine produced at 6000rpm, but also the number of examples of the model that were created, of which the appropriately-registered ‘RB07 SCO’ is one. RB320s were readily identified by their Obsidian Black Pearl paintwork, bespoke 18” dark anthracite alloy wheels, special-design stainless steel mesh grilles, unique front lip spoiler and Day-Glo orange ‘RB’ external badging, which echoed the colour of Richard Burns’ crash helmet. In addition to the Prodrive-tuned engine, the RB320 benefited from special Prodrive suspension featuring Bilstein dampers, Eibach springs, adjustable Eibach rear anti-roll bar and lower ride height. It also boasted a six-speed quick shift manual gearbox, RB-branded gearknob and mats, black and blue suede effect interior trim, and Prodrive-branded chrome exhaust muffler and, when accelerated flat out, could achieve the 0-60mph sprint in just 4.8 seconds. In road tests, Evo magazine commented ‘Uncorked on a great British B-road the 320 absolutely flies’, while Autocar described the RB320 as ‘Definitely the best current-model Scooby we've seen; Burns would have loved it.’ ‘RB07 SCO’ is an extremely well-presented example of this most desirable of Imprezas, and comes complete with service history and current MOT valid to December 8, plus an MOT-backed total mileage of just 30,480. It is now champing at the bit to hit the road or trackday circuit in the hands of a new owner. Now in its sixth generation, the Impreza has been a staple of the Subaru range since 1992. The WRX (World Rally eXperimental) versions were a performance derivative developed from the specification of the company’s works competition cars. Subaru’s success on the world rally stage (the Impreza WRC has won a total of six world rally titles) has long since made the cars a go-to option for performance drivers. In summary:A striking-looking and powerful limited-edition modelOne of just 320 produced in honour of the late Richard BurnsIndicated mileage of 30,480 is supported by the car’s history

Registration - 863 UYEChassis No - 02951388M.O.T. - ExemptOdometer - TBC And now for something truly special – a wonderful lefthand drive Peugeot 403 Pickup, that may even be familiar to you if you’re a regular attender of classic race meetings or the Eroica Britannia retro cycling events, for which it’s acted as a service vehicle. The pickup had just four owners from new, the first of which was a French family from whom the renowned Bugatti guru and race driver Ivan Dutton purchased it in 2014 in order to tow his competition car. It then passed into the hands of the equally well-known racer Martin Overington, who’s also the current owner of the Hotel de France, that’s inextricably linked with the great Aston Martin and Ford racing teams of yore, and the incomparable 24 Heures du Mans race – both men are listed on the Peugeot’s V5. The Peugeot is finished in a pleasing shade of Turkis Blue and trimmed in a mix of grey fabric and blue vinyl. The Pickup’s handy specification includes a good quality tilt that’s less than 10 years old, plus a tow hook and related electrics. Recent maintenance has involved an engine rebuild and replacement of the clutch and suspension bushes, plus a full lubrication service. The vendor presently classes the four-cylinder engine as ‘excellent’, and the four-speed column change gearbox, bodywork, paintwork and upholstery as ‘good’, and adds that ‘863 UYE’ ‘has always been dry stored during his tenure and starts easily and drives well’. He is now offering this delightful and rare Peugeot complete with a spare wheel and a host of spare parts (including a very rare and valuable phosphor bronze crown wheel and pinion), a comprehensive history file that includes various magazine articles (eg a four-pager from the Classic & Vintage Commercials publication), and numerous other items of paperwork. An unrepeatable opportunity.In summary:A splendid and rare period Peugeot PickupJust four owners including a pair of well-known racing driversThe perfect tender for the world’s top classic race meetings The Pickup’s handy specification includes a good quality tilt that’s less than 10 years old, plus a tow hook and related electrics.

Registration - SLX 569Chassis - A1543700HC0M.O.T. - January 2024Odometer - 34,160 This delightful and ultra-rare (only five remain in the UK) Minx convertible is arguably deserving of its own feature film. Back in March 2019, rotten as a pear and stripped for spares following zero interest in it as complete project, it was three days away from an appointment with the crusher when the vendor came galloping over the hill on a white charger (we made that last bit up) and rescued it for the princely sum of £400. The first task was to source a pair of new rear wings and door shuts, as the originals were long gone. A trusty fabricator friend of the vendor then began the long road to recreating the shell, while another rebuilt the engine and gearbox, while yet another (Paddy from VC Classics of Doncaster) dealt with the Minx’s reassembly, respray in Rover Old English White, installation of new carpets etc. The painstaking rebuild was carried out to original specification with one obvious exception – due to a lack of hood and hood frame, the car was reconfigured as a roadster with tonneau; something that can easily be reversed for the cost of a bespoke hood, if and when required. ‘SLX 569’ started life in black and was first registered in Park Lane, London in March 1956. No more is known of its history until it was purchased by a Mr Scutter of Reading in 2001. It then languished on his farm until his death in 2017, at which point the rights passed to his son from whom it was rescued two years later. Unsurprisingly the vendor now considers the 1390cc four-cylinder engine, column-change four-speed transmission, bodywork, paintwork and cream upholstery to all be in ‘excellent’ condition. Only completed in January this year, this splendid phoenix of a Hillman is now ready for some lucky new owner to enjoy. It comes complete with a separate rebuilt gearbox (the one in the car is slightly noisy in first and reverse due to a chipped tooth), splendid two-tone tonneau cover, history file and a current MOT valid to January next year. In summary:A unique four-keeper, 34,217-mile exampleRescued from certain destruction and lovingly rebuilt over 4 yearsUnderstood to be one of only five such convertibles left in the UK

Registration - OKC10FChassis - 1225247M.O.T. - ExemptOdometer - 28,040 ‘OKC 10F’ is a fine, right-hand-drive example of a rare model - some 119,767 BMW 2000s were produced, but www.howmanyleft.co.uk estimates that there are now just 41 licensed in the UK, with a further 36 on SORN. The bill of sale for the example on offer shows that it cost £1,900 when purchased new from a BMW dealer in Liverpool in March 1968. It was then garaged for some years after the original owner fell ill before being restored by the second one, and then passing into long-term family ownership before eventually being acquired by the current keeper. He informs us that the two-tone burgundy and black faux leather interior trim is in ‘excellent’ condition, while all the mechanical parts have been overhauled, replaced or serviced by specialist BMW restorers – this includes the automatic gearbox, which has been rebuilt. He adds that the body and (original) silver paintwork are ‘showing signs of age but are still respectable’, while the BMW’s MOT history appears to support its notably low indicated mileage of 28,041. The 2000 was one of BMW’s ‘Neue Klasse’ (‘new class’) models, which are credited with reversing the marque’s fortunes between 1962 and 1972. The first of this line, the BMW 1500, was introduced in 1961 and went on sale the following year. The all-new car had an equally new engine – a combination BMW had not produced since 1933, when it did so with the 303. As well as the four-cylinder overhead camshaft M115 engine, the 1500 boasted independent suspension all-round with MacPherson struts up front – a first for BMW. The model also introduced the era of the ‘Sharknose’ BMW and was an immediate hit, with the company breaking even in its first year of production, after years of operating losses. The following year, a 47 percent increase in sales allowed BMW to pay shareholder dividends for the first time in two decades. Launched in 1965, the larger-engined 2000 was heralded by Autocar as ‘the best BMW yet’. In summary:A rare, little-used example of one of BMW’s ‘Neue Klasse’ carsMOTs apparently support the indicated mileage of 28,041A comprehensive mechanical overhaul included a gearbox rebuild

Registration - DNN 543Chassis - S1/E/152922M.O.T. - ExemptOdometer - 94,784 Morris 8s are rare visitors to the auctions these days, and it’s certainly a long time since we’ve seen one in this condition. It was first registered in July 1937 and decades later has been the subject of a comprehensive restoration that was started in the 1980s by a previous owner and recently completed by the vendor. The engine was apparently rebuilt at the outset but has covered very few miles since. Within the last two years the body was removed, the chassis treated to some minor welding, the car repainted in the more appealing combination of black over green, the interior completely retrimmed, and new tyres fitted all round. The work included an overhaul of the braking system, but the vendor is keen for us to point out that the rear shoes currently have a tendency to bind, while the front linings apparently need matching (spare linings are included in the lot). The car has been refurbished to original specification, the only exception being the very sensible addition of flashing indicators. A WW2 theme has been created by the addition of white bumpers, side stripes and headlight mask, but the latter two can apparently be readily removed if desired. The vendor presently classes the bodywork and upholstery as ‘good to excellent’ and the engine, gearbox and paintwork as ‘good’, and he is now selling ‘DNN 543’ complete with new six-volt battery, luggage rack, suitcase, period-correct jack, toolkit, tyre pump, oil can, a selection of genuine WW2 related items (suitable for re-enactments) and some spare parts, plus a history file containing receipts and photos covering the work carried out. The Series I Morris Eight was unveiled in 1935 as a rival to Ford’s hot-selling Model Y. It was better equipped than most of its competitors and boasted electric wipers, synchromesh on its upper two gearbox ratios and Lockheed hydraulic brakes. The model was powered by a 918cc side-valve engine of 23.5bhp and ultimately produced in no less than five guises – ie two and four-door saloon, cabriolet, tourer and van. A total of 164,102 Series Is were produced all told. In summary:The subject of a recently completed long-term restorationNotably well presented to original specificationComes with some genuine WW2 items suitable for re-enactments

Registration - R994 BWTChassis No - SAXXPDNADBD157772M.O.T. - NoneOdometer - 14,600Here we have the potential bargain of the sale – a totally original Rover 100 that’s covered just 14,611 warranted miles from new and is being sold at No Reserve. In short, if you are seeking an economical university runabout for your son or daughter, then ‘R994 BWT’ could well fit the bill perfectly. Its red three-door hatchback bodywork is teamed with Ascot grey/fawn cloth interior trim that’s in unmarked condition. The Rover is powered by an 1120cc version of the K Series engine, drives through a five-speed manual gearbox, and rides on steel wheels shod in quality BFGoodrich tyres. It has had a total of seven keepers to date, and was acquired by the current one a year ago. He says the car ‘runs and drives superbly’ and presently grades the four-cylinder engine, transmission and upholstery as ‘excellent’ and the bodywork and paintwork as ‘good’, and is now selling the car complete with new fuel pump, Philips radio/cassette and history that supports the ultra-low indicated mileage. The Rover 100 was the final iteration of what started life as the Austin Mini Metro. That model first saw the light of day in 1980 and was intended as a larger alternative to the classic Mini, which was now 21 years old. Some of the Mini’s proven underpinnings were carried over; not least its sub-frame mounted 998 and 1275cc engines that drove the front wheels via a four-speed manual gearbox. The suspension was a version of the Allegro’s Hydragas system. The newcomer was initially just sold in three-door Hatchback form, but the packaging was good, accommodation deceptive and the ride and handling much lauded, and the model became a big seller, with a million finding homes within the first 10 years of production. By May 1990, the Austin had been heavily revised and morphed into the Rover Metro, complete with a new range ofK Series engines, and by December 1994 even the Metro moniker itself had been consigned to history and the car renamed the Rover 100. In summary:Just 14,611 warranted miles and seven keepers from newAn original unmolested example with ‘unmarked’ interiorEntered from a deceased estate and being sold at No Reserve

Registration - M3 EOVChassis No - WBSBG92000EA89525M.O.T - July 2024Odometer - 109,000 This very tidy Evo certainly looks the part, its Estoril metallic paintwork contrasting nicely with the grey Alcantara interior trim and shiny BMW Motorsport alloy wheels. It has had a total of just seven keepers to date, the most recent of whom has retained the car since July 2017. It was apparently serviced last month, and other recent maintenance has included: refurbishment of the engine’s VANOS system; replacement of the cam cover gasket; the installation of a new Milltek exhaust system; new front brake discs and pads and fresh rear calipers and pads; refurbishment of the Fulda-shod wheels. The vendor presently grades the six-speed manual transmission as ‘excellent’, the six-cylinder engine, two-door bodywork and upholstery as ‘good’, and the paintwork as ‘average’. He is now offering the BMW complete with: engine strut brace; sunroof, Sony CD player and 10-stack autochanger; spare wheel and tyre; full tool kit; first aid kit; and a pair of A4 folders covering the car’s history, plus a current MOT valid into July of next year. The odometer presently registers c.109,000 miles The third generation of BMW’s all-conquering 3 Series model (code name E36) was launched to much acclaim in October 1990. It was penned by Pinky Lai and Boyke Boyer who, as its silhouette suggests, were intent on optimising the newcomer’s aerodynamics. The model was ultimately produced in saloon, hatchback, coupe, convertible and estate guises, and with a choice of engines ranging from 1.6 to 3.2 litres. The M3 variant was offered from 1992 to 1999, the desirable Evolution development of which was launched at the 1995 Frankfurt Salon and featured a larger 3.2-litre engine of advanced specification, that was coupled to a six-speed Getrag gearbox. The E36 range was supplanted by the E46 in the year 2000. In summary:An eye-catching example of the relatively rare Evo variantThe subject of considerable recent maintenanceComes with Milltek exhaust, sunroof, Sony CD system and MOT

Registration - J767 WFFChassis No. - WBAEG22040CB57622M.O.T. - November 2023Odometer - 83,344The resplendent Brilliant Red bodywork of this very original-looking 850i is matched to grey leather interior trim and period-correct BBS alloy wheels shod with Dunlop Sport tyres all round. The vendor is a BMW enthusiast and BMW Club member in whose care ‘J767 WFF’ has been for the last 24 years. He informs us that on his watch it has always been garaged, regularly serviced by BMW dealers and treated to regular visits to car shows etc. He regards the condition of the interior to be ‘outstanding, with carpets that look as-new’, and presently grades the V12 engine and automatic transmission as ‘excellent’, the paintwork as ‘good’ and the coupe bodywork as ‘average to good’. He is now offering the five-owner BMW complete with factory-fitted sunroof and audio system (including boot-mounted CD autochanger), full set of tools, spare wheel/tyre, service records, selection of invoices, book on the 850i model and a current MOT valid into November. The odometer currently stands a totally credible 83,344 miles. A relatively rare sight on British roads, the Klaus Kapitza-penned 8 Series BMW (chassis code E31) was introduced at the Frankfurt Motor Show of 1989. Though it effectively supplanted the venerable 6 Series (E24), it was in fact conceived as an additional model line and, with more performance and a higher price tag, was aimed further upmarket. During its 10-year reign, the four-seat 8 Series was available in 830i, 840i and 850i form, though by far the biggest seller was the 4,988cc, 296bhp 850i that was manufactured from 1989-94, of which over 20,000 were produced. The V12 engine was mated to either a 6-speed manual gearbox or 4-speed automatic unit. The fully independent suspension featured struts at the front and coil springs on the rear. Steering was by ball and nut and braking was by discs all round – vented at the front; solid at the rear. Despite a considerable unladen weight of 1790kg, the performance of the 850i was brisk, with the top speed electronically limited to 155mph and the 0-62mph dash accomplished in 6.8 seconds. In summary:A very well presented example with ‘outstanding’ interiorHas remained in the current ownership for the last 24 yearsJust five owners and an indicated 83,344 miles from new

Registration - HHW 218GChassis No - EC1006192M.O.T. - ExemptOdometer - 2,270We understand from the vendor, that this very rare motorcycle was the subject of a concours-standard restoration courtesy of the previous keeper, and that the vendor himself has ridden it just one mile since purchasing it 5 years ago. It has been well looked after though, having been dry stored in a heated garage following the draining of the fuel tank and 2 stroke oil. In preparation of its sale, the engine oil has been renewed and a fresh Yuasa battery installed. ‘HHW 218G’ certainly looks the part with blue paintwork complementing the black of the frame. The vendor presently regards the rotary-valve two-stroke engine, gearbox, frame, suspension, paintwork, brightwork, and cycle parts as all being in ‘excellent’ order. He is now offering the bike complete new Metzeller tyres and inner tubes, the original handbook and toolkit, various pamphlets etc. Best known as a tyre manufacturer, the giant Bridgestone corporation began making motorcycles in 1958. It created models in a range of capacities, including four versions of the 100cc one – the TMX, Trail, Sport and GP; the latter of which had a rotary gearbox that allowed racers to change direct from top to first gear. However, the company ceased all motorbike manufacture in 1970 under pressure from Japan’s mainstream manufacturers, who threatened to cease purchase of Bridgestone’s tyres if the company continued making motorcycles as well.

Registration - RL02 HJDChassis No - WP0ZZZ98Z2U604687M.O.T. - 12/2023Odometer - 95,000Boxsters have been lauded by the press and enthusiasts alike from the day the model was launched 27 years ago, despite which they remain remarkably good value in the second-hand market. This tidy 986 example is powered by the 2.7-litre engine which drives through the optional Tiptronic paddle-shift gearbox. It has recently been treated to a new hood and nowadays rides on a set of premium Pirelli P Zero tyres. The vendor, the Porsche’s sixth keeper, inform us that while in his care it ‘has always been dry stored and well maintained, runs and drives superbly, and could happily be employed as a daily driver’. He presently grades the flat-six engine, transmission and convertible bodywork as ‘excellent’, the black leather trim as ‘good to excellent’, and the silver paintwork as ‘good’. ‘RL02 HJD’ is now being sold complete with a full service history (including the stamps of a number of Porsche specialists), a pair of keys, an assortment of invoices, and a current MOT valid to December 4. The chic two-door, two-seat Boxster was introduced alongside the evergreen 911 in 1996. Being of mid- rather than rear-engined configuration it actually exhibited superior handling and roadholding to the seemingly immortal 911, winning immediate acclaim from the media and customers alike. It was also the first road-going Porsche since the 550 Spyder to be designed from scratch as a roadster, having been penned that way by Dutch designer Harm Lagaay, who was also primarily responsible for the 968, 993, Cayenne, 996 and Carrera GT. The Boxster sobriquet was a contraction of ‘boxer-engined roadster’ – the newcomer being a convertible with water-cooled flat-six engine. At launch the powerplant was 2.5-litres in capacity, but the standard offering was increased to 2.7-litres in 2000, coincident with the introduction of the higher performance 3.2-litre S. Suspension was independent all round by MacPherson struts and coil springs, braking by power-assisted ventilated discs, and steering by rack and pinion. With 225bhp on tap the 2.7-litre version was capable of sprinting to 60mph in only a little over six seconds and on to a top speed of almost 160mph. In summary:A tidy six-keeper, 95,513-mile example with automatic transmissionRecently treated to a new hood and a set of premium tyresComes complete with full service history and current MOT

Registration - S475 UKYChassis No - VF7S6NFZF56784290M.O.T. - NoneOdometer - 65,000 According to the ‘How Many Left’ website, just 653 Saxo VTRs are currently licensed for use on UK roads, which explains why these attractive pocket-rockets are now rarely seen. This attractive MK1 version matches Poseidon Blue paintwork to multi-coloured cloth interior trim. Its relatively modest indicated mileage of 65,507 is supported by its MOT record and stems from the Citroën having been dry stored for the past 10 years and travelled only 13,221 miles in the last 17. The vendor currently classes its four-cylinder engine, five-speed manual gearbox and paintwork as ‘excellent’ and the three-door bodywork and upholstery as ‘good’. He is now selling the Saxo without Reserve and complete with glass sunroof, Wharfdale audio unit and Dimma locking fuel cap. Launched in 1996, the Saxo was Citroën’s replacement for the successful AX, and was certainly a step forward in terms of design. The frontwheel drive newcomer was offered with a choice of no less than four petrol engines varying in capacity from 954 to 1587cc, and one diesel unit of 1527cc. There were two sporting options among the range – VTR and VTS. The MK1 VTR (1997-1999) was powered by a fuel-injected eight-valve version of the company’s four-cylinder 1587cc powerplant, the output of which was 90bhp. Thanks to a lightweight bodyshell, this was sufficient to sprint the three-door hatchback to 60mph in under 10 seconds and on to a top speed of c.116mph. Suspension was by coil springs up front and torsion bars at the rear, and braking by discs all-round, ventilated at the front. The bodykit that distinguished the VTR from the more junior members of the line-up was shared with the top of the range VTS model. In summary:An apparently very original eight-keeper exampleThe modest overall mileage of 65,507 is backed by the MOT recordDry stored for the last 10 years

Registration - A423 MDYChassis - C66500M.O.T. - June 2024Odometer - 55,400 This eye-catching Morgan is accompanied by a substantial history file of invoices and photographs documenting the extensive body-off restoration to which it was treated in 2019/2020. The 1597cc, four-cylinder Ford CVH engine was completely stripped and rebored; the cylinder head skimmed; the crankshaft overhauled with new bearings; the timing belt, water pump and oil pump replaced; the carburettor overhauled, and a Piper fast road camshaft and new pistons rings, alternator and coil installed. The Ford Type 9 manual five-speed gearbox with long 1st gear was overhauled by specialists Leek Transmission, and a new brake master cylinder, pipes and calipers fitted, along with uprated dampers and springs and a new wiring loom. The body received new door posts and a fresh pair of steel front wings prior to undergoing a full professional bare-metal respray in British Racing Green. To complete the picture, the interior was retrimmed in green-piped cream leather. In total, more than £10,000 was spent on bringing the car up to ‘excellent’ condition throughout, while the wood of dashboard, Moto-Lita steering wheel and gear-knob help retain the period feel that typifies the 4/4. The odometer presently indicates a credible though unwarranted total mileage of 55,397, while MOT records confirm that this very tidy Morgan has covered fewer than 1,000 miles since 2007. Launched in 1936, the 4/4 was the first four-wheeled vehicle Morgan produced, with the 4/4 name indicating four wheels and four cylinders. Production was halted briefly during WWII and from March 1951 to September 1955, other than that it ran continuously until 2018, making the model the world’s longest-running production vehicle. This nimble sports car originally featured a 1122cc Coventry Climax engine, while the Series II 4/4 introduced in 1955 featured a Morgan Plus 4 chassis and 1172cc side-valve engine. Various incarnations followed, leading to the launch of the 4/4 1600 in 1968, to which the 1597cc Ford CVH engine was fitted from March 1982 to November 1991, during which time 1,652 4/4s like the one now offered were built. In summary:A handsome example of the quintessential British sports carThe subject of a well-documented restoration in 2019/2020Subtly modified with fast road camshaft and uprated suspension

Registration - G701 HUGChassis No - WF0FXXGBBFKJ11557M.O.T. - May 2023Odometer - 88,055 The white bodywork of ‘G701 HUG’ is matched to grey cloth interior trim, while the Sapphire rides on its original set of silver-painted RS Cosworth lattice-patterned alloy wheels that are nowadays shod with quality Bridgestone Potenza tyres all-round. It is a rear-wheel drive example that returned to the UK a year ago following a 12-year sojourn in the car-friendly climate of Spain. While there, it formed part of a private collection and was housed in an underground garage, thereby avoiding the dashboard damage that so often afflicts these cars when permanently at the mercy of the Mediterranean sun. The vendor informs us that there are no visible signs of corrosion, and he presently considers the turbo engine, five-speed manual gearbox, bodywork, paintwork and upholstery to all be in ‘good’ order. He is now selling this desirable fast Ford complete with a-31 wastegate actuator, stainless steel exhaust system, its original airbox, glass sunroof, Panasonic CD/radio player coupled to a Pioneer multi-changer, and 12 months’ worth of MOT. The odometer currently registers an unwarranted but totally credible 88,055 miles. Released in the September of 1982, the Ford Sierra was a replacement for the ubiquitous Cortina and its German sibling, the Taunus. Always quick to support the performance and motorsport markets, Ford introduced the be-winged XR4i version 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 RS Cosworth in 1988 and the Sierra Sapphire RS Cosworth 4x4 in 1990. Thanks to cleaner aerodynamics, the Sapphire’s drag coefficient of 0.33 was superior to that of the original three-door cars, allowing marginally superior performance figures of 0-60mph in 6.1 seconds and a top speed of 150mph. Some 13,140 examples were built at Genk, Belgium over the model’s short two-year reign – 1988-1990. In summary:A well-presented two-wheel drive exampleRecently returned from a 12-year sojourn in sunny SpainFitted with a -31 wastegate actuator and stainless steel exhaust

Registration - H612 OCCChassis - ZFFSA17S000088920M.O.T. - ExemptOdometer - 38,968 km (24,213 Miles) ‘H612 OCC’ has had just the one keeper since this handsome lefthand drive Testarossa was imported to the UK from Switzerland in 2017. During his tenure it has covered only 3,000 miles and benefited from the replacement of the engine belts and clutch and the fitment of a fresh set of Pirelli P Zero tyres all-round, while the last oil service was carried out by the vendor as recently as this year. Once finished in metallic grey, it is these days presented in Rosso Corsa that’s perfectly complemented by Crema hide interior trim. The odometer presently displays a very credible though unwarranted total mileage to date of 38,965 kilometres (24,212 miles) and this desirable Prancing Horse is presently considered by the vendor to have a ‘good’ 12-cylinder engine, five-speed manual gearbox, two-door bodywork, paintwork and upholstery. It is now offered complete with some UK service history, plus a current MOT valid to April 4 next year. Ferrari’s mid-engined, flat-12 Testarossa was unveiled to an expectant media at the Champs-Elysée’s Lido nightclub on the eve of the 1984 Paris Salon. Though an evolution of the 512BBi, it had a markedly different appearance. In order not to recreate the high cabin temperatures of its predecessor, the Testarossa featured a pair of rear-mounted radiators. This called for large, slatted intake ducts leading from the doors and rear quarter panels, and it was these that gave the newcomer both its distinctive looks and considerable girth. The model was also longer and higher, resulting in more passenger and luggage accommodation. The Testarossa name (Italian for ‘red head’) was an echo of Ferrari’s immortal Testa Rossa sports racing cars of the 1950s and the engine’s cam covers were painted red, as before. The five-litre Colombo-designed unit was very similar to that of the 512BBi, but featured four-valves per cylinder. Together with other improvements, this resulted in a healthy output of 390bhp – sufficient to power the sleek new Prancing Horse to 60mph in just over five seconds and on to a top speed of some 180mph. In summary:A well-presented lefthand drive example imported from SwitzerlandJust 3,000 miles covered since arriving in the UK in 2017Recently fitted with new engine belts, clutch and tyres all-round

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

It features lefthand drive and the column gearchange and three rows of seats that are an integral part of the Famililale model’s specification. It is finished in black over Dove Grey and trimmed in a mix of fabric and green vinyl up front, and green vinyl for the second and third rows of seats. Recent maintenance has included a rebuild of the braking system and the replacement of the distributor, HT leads and brake cylinders. The vendor now feels the Peugeot ‘runs well and is very solid’, and presently grades the four-cylinder 1468cc engine, four-speed manual gearbox, five-door bodywork and upholstery as ‘good’, and the paintwork as ‘average’. He is now offering this rare slice of France complete with a selection of paperwork, a workshop manual, and an assortment of tools. The mid-sized 403 model was produced by Peugeot from 1955 to 1966, during which time no less than 1,014,111 examples were produced. The model was offered in no less than seven guises, namely four-door saloon, five door estate, convertible, pickup, van and, courtesy of a lengthened wheelbase, a Familiale and Commercial estate. The interesting Familiale, the subject of this lot, featured three rows of seats, thereby turning the 403 into a 7/8-seater vehicle. It also featured full-reclining front chairs and a column mounted gearchange. The successor to the 403 was the four-times East African Safari Rally-winning 404.

Registration - YDT 385GChassis No - GCN1/2096GM.O.T - ExemptOdometer - 6,812 (unwarrented) This decidedly good-looking Snowberry White MGC roadster was the pride and joy of the vendor’s late father and was the transport of choice for her wedding last year. A righthand drive, matching numbers example, it has remained within the family’s care since November 2015, during which time it has been reserved for sunny weekends and visits to car shows. We are informed that the engine was rebuilt by Vic Young in 2005 and these days sports a trio of HS6 SU carburettors and an 18-row oil cooler. The subject of a comprehensive restoration in 2012/2013, the MG also now features a stainless-steel exhaust system, uprated front disc brakes, Spax adjustable dampers and rides on Minilite-style alloy wheels shod with good quality Avon tyres. The nicely patinated white-piped black leather interior is apparently original aside of its desirable Moto-Lita wood-rim steering wheel. Always ‘dry stored and well maintained’, this fine manual gearbox roadster comes complete with a chrome luggage rack and is accompanied by a comprehensive history file that includes a BMIHT Heritage Certificate. Intended as a flagship sports car to replace the Austin-Healey 3000, the MGC was introduced in the autumn of 1967. Based around the two-door monocoque bodyshell of the humble B, the newcomer was powered by a 2912cc OHV straight-six engine allied to either a new heavy-duty, all-synchromesh, four-speed manual overdrive gearbox, or three-speed automatic transmission. Other mechanical differences included: a larger radiator, torsion-bar front suspension, telescopic dampers and lower geared rack and pinion steering. The C was visually distinguished from the B by its 'power bulge' bonnet and taller 15-inch wheels. While early road tests criticised the car's 'nose heavy' handling (the engine was 209 lbs heavier than the B’s and the weight distribution was 53:47), later reports were kinder. With some 145bhp and 170 lb ft of torque, the model could complete the 0-60mph dash in around 10 seconds and hit 120mph flat out. Sadly, too readily confused with its smaller-engined brother, it was axed in 1969 after just 4,544 roadsters and 4,458 GTs were made. Now, 50-plus years later, the MGC's lack of period sales success only serves to make it more collectible. In summary:A notably well-presented, matching numbers, home market exampleThe subject of an engine rebuild in 2005 and restoration in 2012Features upgrades to engine, brakes, suspension and exhaust

It was acquired by the vendor, its second keeper, in January 1984, at which point the odometer registered 11,027 miles. He informs us that the Ghia has always been garaged and regularly home serviced throughout his tenure. Recent maintenance has included renewal of the engine belts and heater matrix and a brake overhaul at 88,030 miles – ie just 776 miles ago. Apparently the Escort was undersealed in PVC while in Germany and is ‘very solid underneath’. The vendor presently regards the 1.6-litre engine, five-speed manual gearbox (thought to be one of the first to be fitted to an Escort), five-door bodywork, Champagne Gold Metallic paintwork and mink fabric/brown velour upholstery to all be in ‘good’ condition. This fine Ford is now being offered complete with glass sunroof, Sharp radio/cassette, pair of auxiliary driving lights, large history file containing the vendor’s bill of sale, the original owner’s manual and an Escort operating guide. The third generation of Ford’s long-lasting Escort model ran from 1980 to 1986. Unlike the MKII which was essentially a reskin of the MKI, the MKIII was a major engineering and stylistic departure from its predecessors. The most significant changes were the adoption of front-wheel drive, an all-new hatchback body, and an equally fresh range of OHC ‘CVH’ engines in place of the long-serving OHV ‘Kent’ ones. Gone two were the cart springs on the rear, so the suspension was now independent all-round. By December 1982 the Escort had overtaken the ageing Cortina to become Britain’s best-selling car, a position it was to retain for eight consecutive years. In summary:A genuine, well cared for two-keeper 89,806-mile exampleComes with comprehensive history file and an MOT to August 2024Regularly home serviced and maintained as required

A lefthand drive Series 2 export model at birth, it has also been converted to righthand drive, though retains its original Stromberg carburettors – home-market cars breathed through a trio of SUs. The Jaguar was gifted to the vendor by his late mother and father, and he currently classes the four-speed manual transmission, roadster bodywork and paintwork as ‘excellent’, and the straight-six engine and black leather upholstery as ‘good’. He is now selling this attractive E-Type complete with a blue tooth stereo system. The odometer presently indicates a totally credible though unwarranted total mileage of 72,372. The last E-Type Jaguar rolled off the production line in 1975, yet the model still has a unique ability to excite enthusiasts of all generations, its Malcolm Sayer–penned lines thought by many to be among the most striking ever to adorn a motor car. The E-Type or XK-E as it was known in the USA, made its debut at the 1961 Geneva Salon. Like the XK120 before it, at launch the new Jaguar was the fastest production car of its time – its 3.8-litre straight-six engine allowing a 0-60mph acceleration time of a whisker over seven seconds and a top speed of circa 150mph. From birth, the car was available either as a fixed head coupe or two-seat roadster. The engine size was increased from 3.8 to 4.2-litres in October 1964. With the change came a sweeter all-synchromesh gearbox, better brakes and more comfortable seats. What are retrospectively known as Series 2 cars were launched in 1968 – they featured a number of modifications required by the Federal market, eg: exposed headlamps, collapsible steering column, safety rocker switches for the facia, larger bumpers and revised side, stop and flasher lamps.

It’s another model that’s suddenly become rare too, with only around 10 thought to be left on our roads. Recent maintenance has included a degree of chassis welding by a Ford specialist and the installation of a new fuel tank. The vendor now grades the DOHC 2.0-litre engine and five-speed manual gearbox as ‘excellent’, the light grey fabric upholstery as ‘good’, and the five-door bodywork and metallic blue paintwork as ‘average to good’; and adds that the Sierra behaved impeccably on a recent 300-mile journey. The sprightly-looking five-keeper Ghia is now seeking a new owner, and is being sold complete with glass sunroof, alloy wheels, headlamp wash/wipe, electric windows, central locking, JVC stereo unit, roof bars, two sets of keys, a ‘massive’ file of invoices and old MOTs etc, plus a current certificate valid to June 19 next year. Released 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.

Its vendor informs us that the car has recently been treated to a considerable degree of restoration and a full respray, and it certainly presents well with its fresh brown paintwork being complemented by tan leatherette upholstery. According to the driver’s door footplate the Austin was supplied new to its first keeper by Morkel and Carnill Ltd of Nottingham, and it was first registered on July 14, 1970. There have been a further five keepers since that time, but the vendor is satisfied that the total displayed mileage of 42,328 is correct, and presently considers the A Series engine, four-speed manual gearbox, four-door bodywork, paintwork and upholstery to all be in ‘excellent’ order. The car is now on offer complete with refurbished brake system, window etching, and stainless-steel wheels trims Owing to the overt success of the Mini, it made eminent sense to employ the same designer to create a successor for the larger Austin A40 and Riley 1.5. Codenamed ADO16, the newcomer launched with a Morris badge in August 1962 was therefore penned by Alec Issigonis, and echoed the Mini in having an ‘A’ Series engine mounted east-west up front, driving the front wheels. Its technical innovations included single-piston swinging caliper disc front brakes and a ‘Hydrolastic’ interconnected fluid suspension system. The appealing styling was the work of Carrozzeria Pininfarina which, with minor adjustments, went on to wear not only Morris but Austin, MG, Riley, Wolseley and Vanden Plas badges during the model’s 13-year reign, over which 2.1million examples were sold.

Registration - SV5322Chassis No - 87K5M.O.T. - ExemptOdometer - 4,000 There are dance enthusiasts the world over who’d give anything to witness the incomparable Fred Astaire perform live once more. Sadly, that’s a wish we cannot grant, but we can offer you the chance to own a very special motorcar that once belonged to him – ie this spectacular-looking 1924 Rolls-Royce 20hp roadster. Finished in yellow that’s complemented by a tan hood and tan leather upholstery, it was exported early on to the USA, where it is thought to have had its its dashing roadster-style coachwork fashioned by Inskip of New York, and where it was for a while the property of one of the most famous dancers of all time. By 1988 it had been repatriated and designated the registration ‘SV 5322’. The accompanying history file shows the roadster was then entrusted to Dennis Pilling & Son of Leigh in Lancashire, who performed a thorough mechanical overhaul on the Rolls-Royce, at a cost of almost £30,000 (a very large sum at the time). The vendor presently classes the six-cylinder engine, dickie-seat roadster bodywork and upholstery as ‘excellent’, and the four-speed central-change gearbox and paintwork as ‘good’. The motorcar comes complete with a large history folder containing an assortment of receipts and invoices, plus photographs and an array of other documents that prove the connection to Fred Astaire. Unveiled in 1922, the 20hp was a second string to the Rolls-Royce bow - a shorter, more economical sibling to the Silver Ghost which broadened the marque’s reach to span both the very rich and seriously wealthy. Instantly distinguished by its horizontal radiator shutters, the newcomer was constructed around a ladder-frame chassis of 129-inch wheelbase. Power came from a 3,127cc straight-six, OHV monobloc engine mated to a three-speed manual gearbox. Suspension was by semi-elliptic leaf springs all-round. Braking was initially on the rear wheels alone, while steering was by worm and nut. Progressively updated to feature a four-speed gearbox and servo-assisted all-wheel braking, the ‘baby’ Rolls remained in production until 1929, by when some 2,885 examples had vacated the company’s Derby factory. Lighter and more responsive than the Silver Ghost, the 20hp was capable of exceeding 60mph.

Registration - PAO 524PChassis No - 1237L65414034M.O.T. - ExemptOdometer - TBC Now here’s something to set the pulse racing. It’s a manual gearbox C3 Corvette equipped with the relatively rare L82 engine, which means 5.7-litres (350ci) of torquey V8 performance – sufficient, according to the American magazines of the day, to whisk the mighty Vette to 60mph in as little as 6.8 seconds. It’s true to say that ‘PAO 524P’ couldn’t manage that right now as it’s in need of a new clutch, but the Chevy starts, runs and makes all the right noises, so the potential is self-evident. The car’s striking grey exterior is enhanced by a broad central black and orange stripe, suitably shiny side mufflers and chunky Riken tyres on alloy rims. The purposeful interior features orange-piped black leather seats, a Pioneer stereo system and monogrammed Corvette mats. The clutch aside, the vendor presently classes the eight-cylinder engine, four-speed manual gearbox and electrics as ‘excellent’, and the bodywork, paintwork and upholstery as ‘good’. The lefthand drive Stingray comes without history, so the currently indicated total mileage of 25,808 is unwarranted, though highly credible. The third generation Corvette (C3) came to market in 1968 and was continually developed until the all-new C4 model of 1984. While the engine and chassis components were mostly carried over from the C2, the interior and most striking of bodies were all new. The exterior design was a development of that penned by Larry Shinoda under the guidance of Bill Mitchell for the Mako Shark II concept car. The ladder-type chassis was broadly as created for the C2 by Zora Arkus-Duntov - the most significant element of which was the independent rear suspension that featured lateral struts, radius rods and transverse leaf spring. 1979 was the best ever year for Corvette production, with 53,807 cars manufactured. Only 5,720 examples were fitted with the desirable L82 engine in 1976, which makes the sale car a pretty rare beast, especially on this side of the pond. In summary:An eye-catching example equipped with the desirable L82 engineJust one recorded UK owner since being imported in 2020Currently in need of a replacement clutch

The home-market MG has remained in the care of its current keeper for the last five years and has apparently been the subject of a considerable degree of restoration, including a full respray. The vendor now considers its five-speed manual transmission and two-seater bodywork to be in ‘excellent’ order, classes the four-cylinder engine and black vinyl upholstery as ‘good’, and the yellow paintwork as ‘average’. He is now offering the rubber-bumpered Midget complete with black hood, roll hoop, Moto-Lita wood-rimmed steering wheel, Caliber stereo system, brand new set of JDM Minilite-style alloy wheels, and a current MOT valid for the next 12 months. By the ‘60s, the MG Car Company had long since been absorbed into the giant British Motor Corporation (BMC). In an effort to fully capitalise on the many respected names in its care, the company embarked upon a programme of ‘badge engineering’, and the new MG Midget was essentially a MKII Austin-Healey Sprite in a slightly different suit of clothes, and initially powered by a 948cc A-Series engine. By the time of the 1966 MKIII, the motor’s capacity had increased via 1098cc to1275cc, semi-elliptic rear springs had replaced the quarter elliptics, and the front brakes were now discs. There were also wind-up windows and a superior hood. In 1972 a lower-geared Triumph steering rack was fitted, a second silencer added and the dynamo ousted in favour of an alternator. The final iteration, the MKIV, brought deformable federal bumpers allied to an increased ride height and a new engine and gearbox – the 1,493cc and four-speed manual units from the Triumph Spitfire. With 66bhp now on tap, the venerable little two-seater was capable of a genuine 100mph flat out. A total of 226,001 Midgets were built between 1961 and 1979.

The vendor informs us that the Mini was completely renovated eight years ago, work that included the replacement of the flooring. He now classes the 850cc engine and four-speed manual gearbox as ‘excellent’, and the bodywork, paintwork and upholstery as ‘good’.

In addition to the saloon, BMC built a variety of other versions including: the Traveller, the sporty Cooper and Cooper S models, the Clubman and 1275 GT, the Moke, the pick-up and the popular Mini van. The latter was based on the longer platform of the Traveller and had a load capacity of 0.25 tons. Available from 1960 until 1982, it was classed as a commercial vehicle and therefore avoided sales tax; making it a cheaper alternative to a car, as well a handy goods vehicle – some 521,494 examples were manufactured all told.

It’s had just four keepers from new, the most recent of which has retained the car for the last seven years. Along the way its original automatic transmission has been replaced by a four-speed manual gearbox and a rebuilt, lower-mileage MG 1300 engine fitted in place of the Wolseley one. It has also benefited from a range upgrades, including: a pair of rebuilt Cooper S carburettors, conversion from dynamo to alternator, and addition of a brake servo, electronic ignition and performance plugs and leads, and 13-inch steel wheels shod with good quality Avon tyres. The original front seats have been replaced with a pair of heated hip-hugging ones, the headlining renewed and high quality red-piped blue carpets installed. The vendor informs us that the body and subframes ‘are very solid and have been regularly Waxoyled’, and he currently classes the engine and gearbox as ‘excellent’, and the four-door bodywork, Trafalgar Blue and black paintwork and red leather upholstery as ‘good’. He is now offering the Wolseley complete with aftermarket rev-counter, pair of period spot lights, tow pack, mud flaps and a Sony audio unit.

One thing’s for sure, they don’t come much smarter than ‘F112 DGC’, which has been the subject of a body-off restoration within the last 12 months, and so should surely be fit to provide uninterrupted pleasure for many years to come. It’s finished in two-tone grey and trimmed in matching grey fabric, and rides on brand new wheels and tyres. The refurbishment is more than skin deep too, as the twin-cylinder engine has also been overhauled and, in a nod to modern motoring, has been equipped with electronic ignition. Unsurprisingly the vendor considers the 602cc motor, four-speed manual gearbox, bodywork, paintwork and upholstery to all now be in ‘excellent’ order. What’s more, the Charleston comes complete with every MOT from new, plus a current one valid to February 12 next year. What’s not to like?! The creation of Citroën’s incomparable Deux Chevaux (2CV) dates back to 1936 and was intended to motorise the large number of French farmers still relying on the horse and cart. The unique design brief called for: a low-priced, rugged ‘umbrella on four wheels’ that would enable four peasants to drive 110lb of farm goods to market at 31mph in clogs and via muddy, unpaved roads; including transporting eggs across a ploughed field without breaking them. No less than 3.8million examples were ultimately produced via 11 factories across the world (including one in Slough, England) between 1948 and 1990, by when the ageing design had been defeated by contemporary legislation. However, the charm of the model never fades and good ones remain keenly sought by collectors and classic car enthusiasts alike. The Charleston version began life in October 1980 as a one-season-only special edition, but proved sufficiently popular to be incorporated into the main range in July 1981. Related changes to the specification included inboard disc brakes at the front and a mild uplift in power to 29bhp courtesy of a different carburettor – the maximum speed now topped 70mph, just!

Registration - UFK 199FChassis No - 395015869GTHS0M.O.T. - ExemptOdometer - 52,537 This handsome example of the final iteration of the Rootes Group’s popular two-seater sports car has undergone a degree of sympathetic restoration in the hands of its current keeper. This has included a recent respray in British Racing Green, undersealing, engine bay refurbishment, reconditioning of the manual four-speed gearbox and renewal of the hood, alternator and brake servo. A GT model, it comes with the detachable factory hardtop, as well as the aforementioned hood and a tonneau cover. ‘UFK 199F’ has had just three keepers from new and has remained in the present ownership since 2016. The dashboard, trim, black vinyl seats and wood-rim steering wheel are nicely patinated, while the 1725cc, four-cylinder engine retains its original-specification twin Stromberg carburettors. The odometer presently reads 52,537 miles. The vendor informs us that the car drives well, and describes the paintwork as ‘excellent’ and the rest of the vehicle as being in ‘good’ condition - it is accompanied by a large history file. Offered at No Reserve, the Alpine provides an excellent opportunity to acquire a classic British sports car offering the choice of both of hard and soft-top motoring. Launched in 1959 and based on a modified Hillman Husky floorpan, the Sunbeam Alpine was very much aimed at the US market by the Rootes Group, who marketed the Series 1 in the States with the tagline ‘Sleek – Swift – Spectacular’. The purpose-built sports car featured advanced monocoque construction and a 1494cc engine – and even boasted wind-up front windows; a rarity amongst British sports cars of the time. It soon established a reputation for reliability, which would continue across all five generations. Successive series would see performance increases as more powerful engines were introduced, while styling refinements further improved practicality and kept the car current. The final version, the Series V, was launched in 1965 and featured a 1725cc engine producing 92bhp. Production ceased on January 1, 1968.

We understand that it spent its early years in Malta and was first UK registered when repatriated in 1994, since when it has had just three keepers, the most recent of whom has retained the bike for the last 10 years. He presently regards the engine, four-speed gearbox, frame, suspension, paintwork, brightwork and cycle parts as all being in ‘excellent’ condition, and informs us that the last service was caried out eight years ago by the acclaimed Norton specialist Pete Lovell.The 650SS (Sports Special) Dominator produced from 1962 to 1968 is considered by many to be the best of the Dommies. It combined a slimline version of the company’s immortal ‘Featherbed’ frame with a 646cc development of its proven Bert Hopwood-designed parallel twin engine. With an output of 49bhp, the SS had a top speed of 115mph-plus, and was therefore a good match for the rival Triumph Bonnevilles of the day.

From its white OZ Racing alloy wheels to its cloth and Alcantara-covered Recaro seats the Lancer is pretty pin sharp. It was imported to the UK in 2021 by Guy Francis Specialist Cars and first registered on September 1 of that year. The vendor is the car’s third custodian since it arrived on these shores and would appear to have cherished it during his 11 months tenure, as the Mitsubishi is certainly presented in fine order. He informs us that it is basically a standard example that has been remapped and he has no hesitation in classing the turbo engine, five-speed manual gearbox, four-door bodywork, shiny white paintwork and grey and green upholstery as ‘excellent’. He is now selling the Lancer complete with a current MOT valid to September 5 next year, plus invoices and a service book relating to its UK-based maintenance, the last bout of which occurred in October last year. The odometer presently stands at 111,586 kilometers (69,336 miles). If you have been searching for an Evo V, then this handsome example must surely be worth a look. Mitsubishi’s Evo has been with us since 1992, during which time there have been 10 generations, each comprising a 2-litre turbocharged four-cylinder engine powering a four-wheel drive, four-door saloon. The EVO V reigned for exactly one year from January 1998 and brought a number of changes that included: flared arches front and rear, new adjustable alloy rear spoiler, 10mm increase in track, increase in wheel diameter from 16 to 17 inches in order to accommodate Brembo brakes, an increase in engine torque to 373Nm. Power output, however, remained the same at 276bhp.

It is an eight-keeper example that has remained in the current ownership since December 2009. Clearly cared for, it was apparently treated to a gearbox rebuild and degree of restoration as well as a repaint as recently as two years ago. The vendor further informs us that the Ford has been serviced and MOT’d every year during his tenure. He nowadays views the hatchback bodywork and upholstery as ‘excellent’, and the V6 engine, five-speed manual gearbox and metallic paintwork as ‘good’. The Capri is now being offered complete with factory-fitted sunroof, CD/MP3 player, spare wheel, jack and a comprehensive A4 folder containing every old MOT, plus a current one valid into January next year. Popular in the ‘70s and ‘80s, Europe’s answer to the Mustang is hot property once again, and for many enthusiasts the pick of the Capri bunch is the last of the big-engined options. Worthwhile improvements came with the MKII variants of 1974 and the quadruple headlamp MKIII cars of 1978. Then in 1981 the venerable 3-litre Essex-engined versions were dropped in favour of the so-called 2.8i Injection – a single-car range powered by the lusty fuel-injected 2.8-litre Cologne V6 engine. Power rose to 160bhp and, soon after launch, the old four-speed gearbox was replaced with a more contemporary five-speed unit. Ford now had a stylish four-seat coupe with the performance to shame rivals of four times the price - it could hit 60mph in 7.8 seconds and top 130mph flat out.

It drives through the optional five-speed automatic gearbox. Its Brilliant Red paintwork contrasts well with the grey leather interior trim and period-correct BBS alloy wheels. The coupe has had just five keepers to date, the most recent of whom assumed possession in 2014. He currently grades the engine and gearbox as ‘excellent’, the bodywork and upholstery as ‘good’, and the paintwork as ‘average’, and is now offering the car at No Reserve complete with: factory-fitted sunroof and radio/cassette player, six-stack CD multi-changer, book pack that includes a replacement service book stamped up to 97,349 miles, a sizeable folder of invoices and receipts, plus a current MOT valid to December 21. The odometer currently indicates a total of 113,107 miles. During its 10-year reign, the (E31) 8 Series was offered in 830i, 840Ci and 850i/Ci form, of which the 840Ci was the second most popular variant. When introduced in mid-1993, it was fitted with a 4-litre V8 engine mated to either a 5-speed automatic or a six-speed manual transmission. The fully independent suspension featured struts at the front and coil springs on the rear. Steering was by ball and nut and braking by discs all round. Over 1.5 billion Deutschmarks is said to have been spent on the car’s design and development, which included the use of CAD tools (still quite rare at the time) and wind tunnel testing, the combined effect of which was a very competitive drag coefficient of 0.29. Though electronically limited to 155mph, this endowed the more powerful 8 Series models with a potential top speed of almost 190mph. Total sales of the range were some 30,600, the model’s potential being somewhat limited by the recession of the time.

We understand that the previous keeper ‘searched high and low to find the best possible example’, and the vendor suggests he probably found it! He currently rates the bodywork, Chariot Red paintwork and red-piped black leather interior trim as ‘excellent’, and the 1500cc B Series engine and four-speed overdrive gearbox as ‘good’; and adds that the car ‘is a pleasure to drive and displays ample power, good brakes and smooth suspension’. This fine specimen is now being offered complete with a suitable history file, plus a fresh MOT valid for 12 months. The MOT history appears to support the modest indicated total mileage of 74,400. Though they were quite different to drive, the origins of the MG TF of 1953 lay in the TA of 1936. MG desperately needed a break with tradition. To quote the company’s own advertising, the MGA was the ‘first of a new line’. Launched at the Frankfurt Motor Show of 1955, it owed its modern streamlined design to the body Syd Enever created for George Philips’ 1951 Le Mans car. The newcomer featured a separate chassis penned by Roy Brocklehurst and was powered by the 1,489cc straight-four BMC B Series engine, as used in the MG Magnette saloon. Suspension was independent with coil springs at the front and featured a live axle hung on semi-elliptic leaf springs at the rear. Braking was by Lockheed drums all round. Steering was by rack and pinion, and the car was available with either steel disc or wire wheels. The engines of the early cars produced 68bhp, but this was soon raised to 74bhp. According to a period test by The Motor, this was sufficient to power the newcomer to 60mph in 16 seconds and on to almost 100mph. Both roadster and coupe versions were offered, a total of some 58,750 were produced before a facelifted model with 1,588cc engine was introduced in May 1959.

The TVR’s totally original white bodywork is matched to blue leather interior trim and blue hood and Targa top, and the vendor presently considers the V6 engine, five-speed manual gearbox, two-seater bodywork, paintwork and upholstery to all be in ‘excellent’ condition. He is offering the car complete with a file containing some service history, an assortment of bills and receipts and all its old MOTs, plus a current one valid to June 25 next year. The odometer currently displays an unwarranted but totally credible 80,962 miles from new. TVR’s S Series line of sports cars made its debut at the 1986 British International Motor Show and marked the first major milestone for Peter Wheeler since taking over the company from Martin Lilley. S1 variants are now extremely rare and powered by 160bhp versions of Ford’s 2.9-litre V6 powerplant, whereas S2-S4 models had the benefit of an extra 10bhp courtesy of basically the same engine. (Most) S3 and S4 cars benefited from longer doors, while S3s were unique in having traditional-looking burr walnut facias. There was also a V8 version of the S that was powered by either a 2.0-litre (yes really) or 4.0-litre derivative of the ubiquitous Rover engine. S Series production ran from 1986 to 1994 and comprised a total of 2,604 cars, 1,194 of which were equipped with one form or another of the V6 Ford engine, and 410 with the Rover V8.

Its distinctive Lightning Yellow bodywork contrasts splendidly with the black suede/leather interior trim and black Fox alloy wheels that are shod with Falken tyres. A genuine UK specification car, ‘DG53 ENR’ has only just benefited from a service that included the replacement of the timing and auxiliary belts and water pump. It is now regarded by the vendor as having a ‘good’ 305bhp turbo engine, six-speed manual gearbox, four-door bodywork and paintwork, and ‘average’ upholstery. We understand that the Mitsubishi’s MOT history confirms the currently indicated mileage of 56,925, and the car comes complete with a current MOT certificate valid into September of next year. All things considered, ‘DG53 ENR’ represents a rare and exciting opportunity for Evo fans everywhere. The eighth generation version of Mitsubishi’s legendary Evo was in production from 2003 to 2005. Originally a single model range, it proved so popular in the US that a family of variants was ultimately evolved. All were powered by a version of the now familiar 1997cc turbocharged in-line four-cylinder engine, but output varied considerably from country to country and special edition to special edition. Variants offered on the UK market included the 260 (260bhp), FQ300 (305bhp), FQ320 (325bhp), FQ340 (345bhp) and FQ400 (405bhp). The sale car features a number of FQ-300 badges inside and outside the vehicle, a console-mounted one of which is combined with the car’s allocation number #433.

Its comprehensive specification includes overdrive, an upgraded Pioneer sound system, leather-rimmed steering wheel and a pair of large auxiliary driving lights. The MG has remained within the current ownership for the last couple of years and is regarded by the vendor as having an ‘excellent’ engine and manual gearbox, and ‘good’ bodywork, paintwork and upholstery. This presentable home market example has evidently been serviced within the last two months and is now being sold complete with its original spare wheel, Haynes owner’s manual, a sizeable history folder of invoices, receipts and old MOT certificates, plus a current one valid for the coming 12 months. The vendor believes the indicated total mileage of 58,066 to be correct. Introduced in May 1962, the monocoque MGB was a welcome progression from the body-on-frame T-Series and MGA models that preceded it. The more modern construction resulted in weight savings, reduced manufacturing costs and notably tauter handling. It was initially only available in roadster form – the Pininfarina-penned hatchback GT derivative with 2+2 seating not being offered until October 1965. The MKII model of 1967 brought an updated manual gearbox with revised ratios and synchromesh on all gears, as well as the option of a Borg Warner automatic unit. Other changes included a revised rear axle, and a switch from dynamo to alternator. In 1969, Rostyle wheels replaced the previous pressed steel version for standard fit. By the time GT production ceased in October 1980, a total of 125,282 had been produced.

Since then there have been a further seven keepers, the most recent of whom was gifted the Ferrari by his father 19 years ago. The car’s fully documented service history comprises 10 stamps up to 47,990 miles, followed by cambelt changes at 50,254, 53,526 and 55,784 miles, since when the Prancing Horse has covered just 132 miles. The vendor presently has no hesitation in confirming that the car’s V8 engine, five-speed manual gearbox, bodywork, Rosso Corsa paintwork and Crema hide interior upholstery are all in ‘excellent’ condition. The Ferrari is accompanied by a large history file containing assorted paperwork and old MOTs dating back to 1994, plus a current certificate valid for the next 12 months. The shapely 328 GTB and GTS were direct and relatively mild developments of the Pininfarina-penned 308 GTB and GTS, the most notable change from which was an increase in capacity from 2.9 to 3.2 litres for the V8 powerplant. The subtly restyled bodies were still largely hand-built for Ferrari by Scaglietti, while the interior was given a slightly more contemporary feel. The only major running change throughout the 328’s reign was the provision of an anti-lock braking system for the car’s ventilated discs. Production of the model ran from 1985 to 1989, and by the time it was replaced by the 348 in 1989 a total of 7,412 examples had been created – 6,068 GTSs and 1,344 GTBs; a ratio of almost 5:1 in favour of the Targa-topped GTS. With some 270bhp on tap, the slightly heavier 328 GTS could still sprint to 60mph in 5.9 seconds and on to a terminal speed of c.163 mph.

Registration - XJW 470GChassis No - 2064025M.O.T. - August 2024Odometer 62,154 The Fiat 500 packed a huge amount of Italian flair into a tiny package and, with its smart dark blue paintwork and black-piped ochre-coloured trim, ‘XJW 470G’ is a pleasing example of Italy’s much adored ‘people’s car’. First UK registered on June 24, 1969, this nimble little right-hand-drive motorcar has recently undergone a sympathetic restoration that included a full respray and new trim, while the underside was freshened up and finished in black. Its steel wheels sport quality Pirelli tyres, and the flip-back fabric sunroof allows driver and passengers to make the most of fine days. Accident damage caused the Fiat to be declared a CAT S insurance write-off in 2020 but, following the installation of a new rear quarter and much recent expenditure, ‘XJW 470G’ is now ready to share its undoubted charisma with a new owner. MOT records show that the car has covered just 1,000 miles in the past decade and confirm the total indicated figure of 62,154. The vendor describes the car’s all-round condition as ‘excellent’ and he believes that the four-speed gearbox is a later all synchromesh example. In the post-war austerity of the 1950s there was a race to develop small cars that required less steel to build and less fuel to run. Germany had already led the way with the Beetle, in France Citroën was not far behind with the 2CV and the UK was soon to develop the Mini. In Italy, Fiat gave its Lead Engineer Dante Giacosa broadly the same brief, and he met it with arguably the most stylish design of all the new compact cars. In July 1957 the Nuova 500 was born, meeting Fiat’s requirement to seat four adults in (relative) comfort while utilising a shell that was less than 10’ long. Echoing the VW Beetle, its 479cc engine was rear-mounted. The specification of the first incarnation included a full-length fabric foldable roof and ‘suicide’ doors. The 500D, introduced in 1960, featured a smaller sunroof and an uprated 499cc engine producing 17bhp, while the 500F of 1965 had front-hinged doors.

It has had four keepers since being imported from the USA in 1991, the most recent of whom, a member of the Midget & Sprite Club, has retained the car since 2014. He informs that it is still powered by its original 948cc A Series engine, but that the speedometer was renewed in 2012, the bodywork restored in 2014 and, over time, the brightwork and steering wheel refurbished and the seats recovered. He presently regards the powerplant, four-speed manual gearbox, two-seater bodywork, paintwork and upholstery to all be in ‘excellent’ order. The little Sprite is now offered complete with soft top, tonneau in excellent condition, standard hard top and sports hard top, both in need of renovation. Further desirable extras to accompany the car include Philips radio/cassette, aftermarket voltmeter, a stack of invoices and selection of old MOTs, plus a current certificate valid into April next year. Thanks to its prominent, bonnet-mounted headlights, the original Sprite quickly became known as the ‘Frogeye’ - a moniker that has stuck to this day. The little two-seater, designed by the Donald Healey Motor Company and built by BMC at the MG factory in Abingdon, was launched in Monte Carlo immediately prior to the 1958 Monaco Grand Prix. The unique, one-piece bonnet covered a mildly tuned, 43bhp 948cc version of the BMC A series engine already found in the Austin A35 and Morris Minor. The suspension was by coil springs and wishbones at the front and quarter elliptic springs at the rear, with lever arm dampers all round. The construction was ‘integrated’ rather than a full monocoque and featured forward projecting chassis legs of the type used in the E-Type Jaguar. The minimal specification excluded exterior door handles and boot lid. Some 49,000 Frogeyes were built between 1958 and 1961.

A lefthand drive example, the Fiat was apparently imported from Santa Clara, California in 1993, since when it’s had three UK keepers, the most recent of whom acquired the car in 2015. The vendor nowadays considers the 2.0-litre twin-cam engine, five-speed manual gearbox, convertible bodywork, Ferrari Azzuro (metallic blue) paintwork, and beige vinyl upholstery to all be in ‘good’ order. We understand that the last service was conducted within the last 12 months and confirm the car’s tidy four-spoke alloy wheels are shod with quality tyres – Goodyear on the front and Yokohamas on the rear. This fine-looking Fiat is now being sold complete with Pioneer sound system and a degree of history. Fiat’s handsome 2+2 124 Sport Spider made its debut at the 1966 Turin Salon. The Ferrari 275 GTS-esque newcomer was styled and manufactured by Pininfarina and based on a shortened version of the popular 124 Saloon platform. Targeted at the American market, the newcomer was powered by a belt-driven DOHC version of the saloon’s four-cylinder pushrod unit, complete with alloy crossflow head. Initially 1438cc in size, it grew in stages over 20 years to 1995cc, taking the power output from 89bhp to 104bhp respectively (133bhp in the case of the 1995cc turbo engine). The engine drove through either an all synchromesh five-speed manual gearbox or a General Motors three-speed automatic unit. Suspension was independent at the front by wishbones and coil springs, and by live axle, Panhard rod and coil springs at the rear. Braking was powerful courtesy of discs all-round and the steering was initially by worm and roller, but eventually rack and pinion. The model line finally ceased in 1985 after almost 200,000 Spiders had been produced – 75 per cent of which were destined for the American market.

This tidy specimen matches Signal Orange bodywork to black quilted interior trim and rides on a set of five-spoke Compomotive alloy wheels. It resided in South Africa until imported to the UK in the Autumn of 2020. Since arriving on these shores it has undergone a sympathetic restoration that included complete refurbishment of the underside and any other bodywork that was deemed necessary, followed by a repaint of the affected areas and engine bay. The 1600cc Kent engine was rebuilt and fitted with a downdraft Weber carburettor topped by a K&N performance filter. The four-speed manual gearbox was also rebuilt and uprated with a quick shift change. The driveline now benefits from a rally specification English rear axle. The vendor currently rates the OHV engine and transmission as ‘excellent’, and the two-door bodywork, paintwork and upholstery as ‘good’. The Ford comes complete with a degree of supporting paperwork and two sets of keys. The Ford Escort is one of the motor industry’s longest running success stories, with over 4.1 million examples of the model being sold over a period of 33 years, and it was frequently Britain’s best-selling car during the 1980s and 1990s. The second of the six generations was ushered in during 1974 and reigned until 1980. Much squarer in shape than its predecessor, it was offered in the four guises of two and four-door saloon, estate and van, and in various levels of trim and performance. Versions of the MKII were manufactured or assembled from CKD kits in England, Ireland, Germany, Australia, Israel, New Zealand, Holland and South Africa. For the latter market, UK-built MKIIs were exported to the country, where they were assembled at the Ford plant in Silverton. The beauty of the dry South African climate and salt-free roads is that car bodies and undersides are far less likely to suffer from rust or rot, making vehicles imported from there highly desirable. The added bonus for a UK owner is that they are usually righthand drive, as is the case with ‘VSM 250T’.

The vendor, the Maserati’s seventh keeper, acquired the car from a dealer in April last year, and he currently considers its twin-turbo V6 engine, automatic transmission, convertible bodywork, paintwork and upholstery to all be in ‘excellent’ condition, and confirms that the hood is in good working order. He informs us that the Biturbo was last serviced in April 2020, and is now offering this rare Italian beauty complete with Pioneer stereo unit, full service history, owner’s book pack, a large selection of bills and receipts, and a current MOT certificate valid to June 14 next year. The Biturbo was a family of executive grand touring cars produced by Maserati between 1981 and 1994 – the architecture of the model also served as the basis of all the company’s offerings between 1981 and 1987, including the Shamal and Ghibli II. The layout of the Biturbo was relatively conventional, with the engine and gearbox mounted up front and driving the rear wheels and its unibody constructed from steel. The 90-degree V6 powerplant was the first production unit to feature a pair of turbos and was made in a variety of capacities from 1996 to 2790cc – the latter version, as fitted to the sale car, had an output of some 225bhp. The convertible version of the Biturbo was lunched at the 1985 Turin Motor Show and was designed and assembled by Zagato in Milan. In summary:One of the few remaining righthand drive examplesSeven keepers and a documented 91,910 miles from newComes complete with full service history and a current MOT

***NO RESERVE*Registration - 39 PHYChassis No - PADX197315M.O.T. - ExemptOdometer - 96,727 ‘39 PHY’ has had just six keepers in its 61-year life, the last two of whom have invested a fair degree of time and money in what is now a decidedly rare model that had already benefited from such period modifications as power steering, four-speed gearbox with floor-mounted change and overdrive. The recent work has included: a respray from white to two-tone blue; conversion to allow the use of E10 fuel; the re-coring of the radiator; replacement of the head gasket, water pump, headlights, door locks, spark plugs and leads, and three quarterlights; the installation of bespoke window rubbers, front inertia seatbelts, pair of Revotec electric cooling fans, reversing light, contemporary indicators and aftermarket gauges. More fundamental has been the upgrade to the braking system that now features servo-assistance and discs up front. The vendor currently considers all major aspects of the Vauxhall to be in ‘good’ order and is offering the car complete with a modest history file. When did you last see one of these? The PA Cresta was produced at a time when the design of the UK-built Vauxhalls was heavily influenced by its parent company, General Motors, and the tail fins, wrap around windows and white-wall tyres were all echoes of the Buick Special already on sale in the US. Launched in October 1957, the model reigned for five years before being replaced by the completely restyled PB, during which period 81,841 examples were manufactured. The model was initially powered by the 2262cc six-cylinder engine of the preceding E Series Cresta, but this was heavily revised in 1960, and cars from August that year onwards benefited from a more powerful version of 2651cc. A Motor magazine road test of one of the later cars produced a 0-60mph time of 15.2 seconds and top speed of a whisker under 95mph. The powerplants drove through either a column-change three-speed manual or Hydramatic automatic transmission. In summary:Just six-keepers and an indicated 96,727 miles over 61 yearsPeriod mods include four-speed manual gearbox and power steeringThe subject of recent maintenance and improvements

Registration - LSM 754FChassis No - 103068M.O.T. - ExemptOdometer - 20,054We understand that this tidy CB77 was lovingly restored by the vendor’s late father and has spent the last few years slumbering in its owner’s living room, which has helped to keep the total indicated mileage down to a very reasonable 20,054. The vendor currently classes the Honda’s cycle parts as ‘excellent’, the twin-cylinder engine, four-speed gearbox and brightwork as ‘good’, and the silver and red paintwork and suspension as ‘average’. Renowned for its reliability, the CB77 (aka Super Hawk) was in production from 1961 to 1968. Its tubular steel frame was powered by a SOHC air-cooled parallel twin-cylinder powerplant of 305cc, whose output of 28bhp was sufficient to propel the machine to a top speed just shy of 105mph. The model was immortalised by none other than the ‘King of Rock ‘n’ Roll’, Elvis Presley, who rode a CB77 in the 1964 movie Roustabout.

Registration- YNE 784LChassis No - AR3042285M.O.T. - August 2021Odometer - 65,373 The history file that accompanies this splendid-looking lefthand drive Spider tells us it was exported new to an Alfa Romeo dealership in Pennsylvania, USA, where the garage owner promptly adopted it for his personal use. The third US owner acquired the Alfa in 2010, and correspondence on file confirms how much he doted on it, only running the two-seater on warm days and spending some $6,000 on reconditioning it in 2017. It was in 2020 that the Alfa was imported to the UK and allotted the registration ‘YNE 784L’. An extensive restoration followed a year later, work that included a conversion to European specification, refurbishment of the underside and a full respray, plus new black mohair hood, hood cover and Minilite-style wheels shod with Pirelli P6 tyres. The interior remains to original specification, including a period push-button radio, and the car is now offered complete with original US registration documents, original handbooks, service book and spare wheel. The UK history includes a host of invoices from specialists such as Classic Alfa and Alfaholics. The Spider was launched at the 1966 Geneva Salon and is said to have been the last project with which ‘Pinin’ Farina was personally associated. Just one year later the model was immortalised by the Dustin Hoffman film ‘The Graduate’. The chassis was based on that of the Giulia 105 and the Series One examples were powered by a 1,570cc version of Alfa’s four-cylinder twin-cam unit. The car boasted a sporting specification, including independent front suspension, disc brakes all-round and a five-speed manual gearbox. The Series 2 Spider arrived in 1970. The rounded tail was replaced with a distinctive ‘Kamm’ design and a year later engine capacity was increased to 1962 cc, prompting the name to be changed to 2000 Spider Veloce. With 131bhp on tap, this was the quickest Spider yet and capable of over 120mph. In summary:A four-keeper, very well-presented exampleExtensively restored in 2021, with a substantial history fileImported from the USA in 2020 and converted to UK specification

Registration - FX08 JDZChassis No. - ZDMA109AA813021554M.O.T. - May 2024Odometer - 17,422There’s much to know about this splendid six-keeper Multistrada, which has remained in the vendor’s care for the last four years, during which time it has been ‘garaged and well maintained’. The 1100cc V-Twin engine benefits from having electronic ignition and MIVV exhaust system, while other particular points of note include: the carbonfibre engine cowl and chain guard etc; the Marchesini wheels wrapped in ‘good’ Bridgestone Battlax tyres; new high-performance clutch slave cylinder; heated handlebar grips (Oxford Products), and the framework for panniers. We understand that ‘FX08 JDZ’ was treated to a desmo valve service by Ducati Manchester as recently as 700 miles ago, and that the Multistrada is now considered by the vendor to have ‘excellent’ engine, five-speed gearbox, frame, suspension, red paintwork, brightwork and cycle parts. He is now offering this princely Italian motorcycle complete with alarm/immobiliser, pair of keys, partial service history, original owner’s manual, history file containing invoices etc, plus a current MOT valid to May 24 next year.

Registration - EDL 246FChassis - 25114206DM.O.T. -ExemptOdometer - 15,250 ‘EDL 246F’ proudly exhibits the patina of its 18 years of service with an MOD fire unit. The present owner, who purchased it direct from the MOD in April 1984 and is listed on the V5 as the only keeper since the vehicle became DVLA registered, has evidently maintained it in good running order. The related work has included: the installation of a galvanised chassis; the replacement of the fuel system, carburettor, distributor and coil, as well as fresh springs and dampers all-round. In addition, the chassis has been undersealed, and in 2016 the Landie was apparently treated to a professional respray. The vendor currently classes the 24-volt electrics as ‘excellent’, the bodywork, green paintwork, four-cylinder 2.25-litre petrol engine and four-speed manual gearbox as ‘good’, and the black interior as ‘average’. MOT records appear to support the stated mileage of just 15,227 miles and that less than 1,000 have been covered since the respray. ‘EDL 246F’ is now being offered at No Reserve and, with its undoubted off-road capabilities, this long wheelbase (109”) pick-up would surely be equally rewarding as a practical workhorse or a participant in classic Land Rover and military vehicle events. That even the last of the classic Defenders is immediately recognisable as a direct descendent of the Land Rover launched at the 1948 Amsterdam Motor Show is huge testimony to Maurice Wilks’ original design. The Landie was designed for light agricultural use and to create the cashflow required to kickstart Rover’s post-war passenger car production. The irony of its longevity is that production was only intended to run for two-three years. Instead, it rapidly became the workhorse of the world. The model steadily progressed from a single offering with 1.6-litre petrol engine to a complete family of long and short wheelbase derivatives with an ever-increasing choice of powerplants. By the time of the Series IIA, production was at its all-time peak of over 60,000 vehicles per annum. and the model is considered by many to be the most durable of all the Land Rover Series vehicles. In summary:A former MOD fire truck with just one owner since 1984It exhibits an MOT-supported mileage of just 15,250The subject of a professional respray in 2016
