1986 Mercedes R107 560 SLMake: MercedesModel: 560 SLYear: 1986Mileage: 73800VIN: WDBBA48D3GA050138Configuration: Left Hand DriveRegistration: Contact AucitoneerTransmission: automatic With the big-engined 5549cc V8 560SL not being available when current in Europe, examples are few and far between on this side of the Atlantic. This one was part of a private SL collection in 'dry-state' California, until being shipped to the UK in 2020. Once here, the vendor reports that it was resprayed earlier this year, the electrics checked over and other work carried out. The import taxes have been paid, and a V5 registration document applied for. The document folder includes the original Los Angeles Mercedes-Benz invoice - for $55,060 including, amusingly, a 'gas guzzler tax' of $1300 - plus an Experian vehicle history report that throws up no red flags. There's also the rather tatty remnants of the owner's handbook, a guide to the Becker radio/cassette player and instructions on how to operate the cruise control. The original service history book shows servicing every year through until 1993, when the mileage was 73,804 miles. PLEASE SEE BELOW FOR VIDEO PRODUCED 21ST JULY BY ACA OF THIS CAR.

1989 Jaguar Sovereign 5.3 V12 Auto Make: JaguarModel: Sovereign Year: 1989Mileage: 111616VIN: SAJJDALW3CB482443Configuration: Right Hand DriveRegistration: G932HUJTransmission: automaticAlthough, in six-cylinder form, Jaguar's Series 3 XJ saloon shape was discontinued with the launch of the more square-rigged XJ40 model in 1987, it continued as a 12-cylinder model until 1992. The Sovereign name was also 'borrowed' from sister marque Daimler marque to denote the top-of-the-line Jaguar variant. This example was inherited by the registered keeper in 2018 from his father-in-law, who had purchased it in 1996. He'd had extensive bodywork done on it during 1998 when it reached 91,435 miles (for which there is a photographic record); however, we're advised that the 111,616-mile car still has its original floors and sills. The well-organised history folder contains the current V5, a large stack of invoices totalling many thousands spent over the years, MoTs dating back to 1994 (which verify the recorded mileage), photos, notes, tax discs, newsletters, and other sundry paperwork, including hand-written notes and diagrams. There's also the original document wallet with owner's handbook, electrical data chart, service book (stamped up to 75,627 miles in 1996), maintenance booklet, specification sheet, pre-delivery inspection checklist and sound system guide. However, what really stands out is the owner's 'diary' - a handwritten log of the car's adventures from August 1996 (at 79,500 miles) through to August 2014 (108,524 miles). The chronicle ranges from jobs such as checking the thermostats in a saucepan of hot water to major jobs such as the suspension, brakes and steering restoration and upgrade from December 2005 to January 2006. There's also a CD detailing all this work. The Jaguar's MoT is valid until August 2022 and it has recently been serviced, at a cost of nearly £800. The car's condition is very good inside and out, with both the grey leather and woodwork in the cabin presenting very well. PLEASE SEE BELOW FOR VIDEO PRODUCED 18TH AUGUST BY ACA OF THIS CAR.

1947 Triumph 1800 Roadster Make: Triumph Model: 1800 Roadster Year: 1947Mileage: 78375VIN: TRD704Configuration: Right Hand DriveRegistration: YAS611Transmission: manualForever associated with Jim Bergerac's crime-busting antics in the hit BBC TV series of the 1980s and early 1990s, one of the Triumph Roadster's other claims to fame is that it was the last British car to feature a dickey seat. This 1947 example has been converted from column change to floor change (to a very professional standard), although the original bits will be sold with the car. The vendor reports that the car was restored from 2001 to 2003 - including having all its woodwork renewed - and was then used for shows and pleasure trips, including a a few visits to Jersey and, on one memorable occasion, ferrying John Nettles - Jim Bergerac himself - around when he opened the BBC Radio Norfolk show. The history file includes pictures of the restoration, MoTs dating back to 2006, and a wide assortment of 21st century bills, including one for a stainless steel exhaust in 2008. There's also the instruction book, Triumph Roadster Club restoration guide and technical handbook, plus a plaque from when the car won an award at the Hatton Country Show Rally in June 2007. The odometer records the mileage as 78,375. Although the restoration was getting on for 20 years ago now, the car's condition is holding up well, with the exterior and interior in very good order. The chrome is free from any significant blemishes, and the leather, wood and carpeting inside show very few signs of age or wear. PLEASE SEE BELOW FOR VIDEO PRODUCED 20TH JULY BY ACA OF THIS CAR.

Lot 459

A cleverly-engineered, hand-built re-creation of the pretty little 206SP using a 246 Dino as a base.A US-supplied, left-hand drive Ferrari 246 expertly re-engineered into a remarkable 206 SP re-creationChassis professionally modified in the US, 206 SP Alloy body constructed by Giordenengo in Italy to original specificationsFitted with a longitudinally-mounted, 206 alloy block engine understood to have been rebuilt with balanced crank and motorsport pistonsCurrently UK-registered as an historic vehicle, previously registered in Germany and on-the-button ready for useIssued with FIVA papers in November 2012, features in ‘Ferrari World Book’ chassis 01508 Type 246 Red Dino 206 replicaBody and interior beautifully restored in the UK by highly regarded classic specialists Sherwood RestorationsA beautiful machine with excellent road manners suitable for road or perhaps competition useLike its big brother, the 330P3, the Dino 206S was bodied by Drogo’s Carrozzeria Sports Cars and utilised a multi-tube frame with alloy panels riveted to it for additional stiffness, in essence a semi-monocoque structure. Ferrari’s intention was that 50 of the cars would be built, qualifying it as an FIA Group 4 Sports Car, but the financial difficulties that would lead to Ferrari’s merger with Fiat three years later prevented that optimistic goal from being met and in the end only 18 of these wonderful, quick, beautiful sports racers were built. Consequently, what started out as a Dino 206 S (for Sport) became known as the Dino 206 SP (Sport Prototipo).Offered here is a truly remarkable 206 SP re-creation constructed using a 1971 246 Dino GT as a base with the chassis re-engineered in the USA and an all-alloy body beautifully hand-crafted in Italy. This car started life as an American-spec Ferrari Dino supplied new in 1971 and at some point, when Dino values were at a low ebb, a high quality conversion was undertaken.Documents within the history file confirm that Jim Carpenter, a well-regarded Ferrari specialist based in Arizona, would be responsible for the Chassis modification and an all-Aluminium hand-crafted body would be commissioned by Giordenengo in Italy. The ’71 246 GT chassis was professionally modified to accept a longitudinally-mounted Ferrari 206 Dino alloy block engine which, we understand, had been uprated with ‘motorsport’ pistons, a balanced crankshaft, connecting rods and flywheel.Reportedly never raced, the car was exported to Germany with all copies of registration papers on file and later imported into the UK. Once in the UK, the car was subject to further attention from highly regarded classic specialists, Sherwood Restorations. The scope of work included some bodywork, a full re-paint in Rosso Corsa, a new custom-made windscreen (with a spare also produced which accompanies the car), a cabin re-trim and various other works to bring this fascinating 206 SP re-creation up to its best. It must be noted that the standard of finish achieved is remarkable and any inspection of this vehicle is highly recommended with no disappointment expected.Accompanying the car is an equally fascinating and detailed history file including a copy of the FIVA Identity Card granted in 2012, current UK registration papers (V5c), copies of previous German registration papers, details and invoices for restorations works by Sherwood Restorations, invoices from other more recent mechanical maintenance works, old MOT Certificates, correspondence between previous owners and Jim Carpenter, the Ferrari Owners Club UK and copies of paperwork from America.In summary, this is a very attractive, well-engineered, highly versatile 206 SP re-creation that can be enjoyed as a well-mannered sports car or perhaps used in competition. The overall quality of finish is remarkably good, the Targa roof can be removed and neatly stows in the rear, the visibility from the cabin is superb, the controls are light and extremely responsive, the engine fires on-the-button and sounds keen and healthy and we are informed that the handling at speed is sublime.It’s also worth noting that this example is recorded in the ‘Ferrari World Book’ – Handbuch Der Ferrari Seriennummern 1947-2007 which records ‘Chassis 01508 – Type 246 Red Dino 206 Replica’ which certainly underlines its provenance. To re-create this 206 SP replica today to this standard would cost a fortune, with a donor potentially costing as much as our lower estimate and we believe we believe, at this guide, this gorgeous little red Ferrari represents superb value.  SpecificationMake: FERRARIModel: 206Year: 1971Chassis Number: 01508Registration Number: FSP 716Transmission: manualEngine Number: 2.0/0015 Drive Side: Left-hand DriveOdometer Reading: 1019 MilesMake: LHDInterior Colour: RedClick here for more details and images
