Registration No: KXS 326 Chassis No: 376820 MOT: ExemptUnderstood to have been used by the Italian Army, and painted in those colours to suitSupplied with very rare metal half doors and complete hood and sidescreen setKept in fine mechanical fettle by the vendor PLEASE NOTE: The quoted chassis number indicates that this lot is a 1944 Willys MB Jeep and not a 1944 Ford GPW Jeep as catalogued and UK road registered. Given the interchangeability of the two designs it is not unusual to find a Willys registered as a Ford and vice versaArguably more iconic than a Sherman Tank or P-51 Mustang, the Jeep is for many the definitive WW2 vehicle; a workhorse of the US and Allied forces during WW2 and kept in service all around the world for decades afterwards. Born out of the American Quartermaster Corps' 1940 invitation to submit a prototype go-anywhere four-wheel drive light reconnaissance vehicle which led to a three-way competition between Bantam, Willys-Overland, and Ford, the winning design's simple but effective chassis, ingenious transmission, rugged suspension, and flathead Go-Devil 60hp 2.2-litre 'four' proved invaluable for hauling troops out of trouble. About 650,000 MB types were built between 1941 and 1945, by Willys and (in greater numbers) by Ford. Finding a Jeep still retaining all its original components is rare because, after WW2, many Jeeps were rebuilt on a ‘mix and match' basis, meaning it is common to find components from all three makers combined in one vehicle.According to the dating certificate presented within the history file, chassis 376820 is a war-time Ford built GPW Jeep that was completed in October 1944. Little is known of the early history of the vehicle, however, it is understood to have originally been supplied with very rare removable metal half doors that it retains to this day. Previously registered in Italy, it is understood to have seen service in the Italian Army post war and is painted in the iconic light green colour to suit. The current keeper bought the vehicle in a non running state in 2019 from a gentleman who had been the long term owner since 1989 and imported it to the UK, where it was registered with the DVLA on the registration number 'KXS 326'. and there are invoices on file for parts including a new carburettor and fuel pump and it is described by the vendor as being in 'very solid' condition having believed to have been in the dry climate of Italy since the end of WW2, although the paintwork is aged. The vehicle is now described as being in 'fine mechanical condition' and has been used a number of times for summer trips to the pub with the keepers' grandchildren, although should a prospective new owner get caught in rain, there is a hood and full sidescreens supplied.Offered at No Reserve for our Buxton sale, this presents a perfect opportunity for any enthusiast to either restore to US Army specification or to have fun with as is at the upcoming summer shows.

Registration No: 749 HOJ Chassis No: 860467 MOT: Exempt1 of just 1,799 RHD examples madeProvided with a full restoration between 1999 and 2001Dry stored in the vendor's garage for the last c.20 years and therefore in need of a thorough recommissioningA home market car with matching chassis and engine block numbersOne of the great motoring icons of the last century, Jaguar’s E-Type is a car that has always inspired loyalty and devotion. Born out of the fabulous D-type racer, the newcomer soon acquired a strong competition heritage of its own (as witnessed by Briggs Cunningham and Roy Salvadori’s strong drive to 4th overall in the 1962 Le Mans 24-hours). Faster and more glamorous than virtually all its production rivals, it put many so-called ‘sportscars’ to shame at its 1961 Geneva Motorshow launch. Certainly, few could live with its reputed 150mph top speed or the savage acceleration that allowed it to touch 60mph in less than 7 seconds. In an age when a decent family saloon could call upon its engine for 65bhp, the E-Type’s 3781cc, DOHC, straight six claimed an additional 200bhp. While Ferrari`s lauded 250GT SWB and 250 GTO made do with live rear axles, the E-type utilised a sophisticated independent rear set-up with inboard rear disc brakes. Rack and pinion steering enabled the driver to make the most of the monocoque chassis’ excellent road holding and handling, putting it light years ahead of American designs like the Corvette.Manufactured on the 30th of April 1962, chassis 860467 is one of just 1,799 right-hand drive 3.8 Fixed Head Coupe examples produced and was supplied new to the home market by distributors Ritchies Ltd., Glasgow, being dispatched on the 15th of May. Provided with a comprehensive restoration between 1999 and 2001, the E-Type’s bodywork was taken back to bare metal and new panels fitted as required, with the Jaguar thereafter provided with a full repaint Red. New or re-chromed trim finished the exterior appearance, with the engine and transmission provided with full overhauls, including the engine receiving a replacement cylinder head (although the matching numbers head is accompanying). A Kenlowe fan, Lumenition ignition system, and stainless-steel exhaust finished the mechanicals before the interior was provided a full retrim in Tan leather. Invoices in the history file total some £9,000 worth of expenditure.Purchased by the vendor in 2003, 860467 was used on the road for a couple of years before the E-Type was parked in the vendor's garage due to other commitments and has not seen the road since. Offered for sale now due to the vendor’s realisation that he will not get the E-Type back on the road, it is offered requiring a thorough mechanical recommissioning before pressing back into use. Supplied with a history file that contains the aforementioned invoices, as well as a Jaguar Heritage Trust certificate, CD workshop manual, owner’s manual, maintenance charts, some previous MOTs, and a V5C document. Pleasingly retaining its original, ‘matching’ chassis and engine cylinder block, the Fixed Head Coupe also boasts the chassis number being stamped on the picture frame. With just 1,799 RHD 3.8 Fixed Head Coupe examples produced, survivors are now highly sort after, making ‘749 HOJ’ a highly worthwhile recommissioning project.

Registration No: F319 ODP Chassis No: SALLDHHB7FA360263 MOT: April 2025Offered with a collection of invoices and a current V5CSubject to lots of expense at Land Rover specialist in current ownershipFresh MOT expected by the time of salePLEASE NOTE: This lot is offered with an MOT certificate until April 2025.The ‘One Ten’ was introduced in 1983. Further differentiated from its Series III predecessor by a taller one-piece windscreen, modernised interior and more sophisticated Range Rover-derived permanent four-wheel drive system, the newcomer gained a shorter wheelbase sibling, the ‘Ninety’, in 1984. With their superior load capacity, handling and ride comfort, the ‘One Ten’ (110) and ‘Ninety’ (90) proved strong sellers.Offered here is a very practical iteration of the Land Rover Defender 110. A long-wheelbase 110 example of the Pickup Defender, it has also benefitted from a purposefully built enclosed Defender hardtop by Ifor Williams. There is still space for 2 passengers up front as per the usual ‘Landy’ configuration.Subject to lots of expense in current ownership, expenditure in 2021, at a Land Rover specialist, involved the wiring of the front DRLs, replacement of o/s front door hinges, replacement of the heater blower motor, replacement of the brake light and hazard light switch and repair to the wiring for the rear lights. Expenditure in 2023 included replacement of the head and rocker gaskets, along with a door lock and ignition barrel. A fresh MOT is expected by the time of sale. It is offered with a collection of invoices and a current V5C. For more information, please contact: James McWilliam james.mcwilliam@handh.co.uk 07943 584760
Registration No: DBP 238G Chassis No: 1R7043 MOT: ExemptRepatriated to the UK in 1989 and subsequently converted to RHDSubject to an extensive restoration in the late 1990sFitted with triple SU carburretors and a sports manifoldOffered with a Jaguar Daimler Heritage Certificate, collection of invoices and restoration photographsTriumphantly unveiled at the 1961 Geneva Motor Show, the Jaguar E-Type created a furore thanks to its supercar performance, stunning looks and modest price tag. Early racing success at the hands of Graham Hill and Roy Salvadori amongst others helped cement the newcomer's reputation. Built as a monocoque with an engine cradling front sub-frame, the E-type's combination of all-around independent suspension and disc brakes allied to rack-and-pinion steering resulted in excellent roadholding and handling capabilities. The indomitable straight-six XK twin-cam engine supplied abundant power. If the design had an Achilles' heel then it was the recalcitrant Moss gearbox. However, Jaguar was quick to correct this shortcoming with a four-speeder of its own design just part of a continual programme of E-Type development that saw the model metamorphose through three Series. Introduced in August 1968, the Series II cars were distinguishable by their revised bumper and light arrangements. Less noticeable was the increased size of the front air intake that in conjunction with dual cooling fans made the Series II better behaved in hot weather and heavy traffic. With its 4235cc engine developing a quoted 265bhp and 283lbft of torque, it was reputedly capable of nearly 150mph and 0-60mph in 7.5 seconds. Available in open two-seater, Fixed-Head two-seater and Fixed-Head 2+2-seater guises, the American market accounted for the vast majority of Series II production. 8,627 open two-seaters made were made.Supplied new by the Overseas Motors Corporation, Fort Worth, Texas, to John K. Harrell Jr. of Houston Texas. This Series 2 Roadster is finished in Silver wth a Black hood and hood cover. Inside, you’ll find Red trim looking splendid when complemented to a Silver car. Originally a left-hand drive market US car it now features a sports manifold and triple SUs with trumpets. Shipped to the UK around December 1989 ‘DBP 238G, was subsequently converted to a right-hand drive configuration. Its understood that in the late 1990s or early 2000s the Roadster was subjected to bodywork, paint and mechanical work, with a collection of restoration photographs on file. Fast forward to 2021 the Jaguar was the subject to £3,223 worth of work by Paul Brown Jaguar. Other work has included the fitment of electronic ignition.There is a collection of old MOT documentation dating back to 1989, the year of repatriation to the UK, and an original Jaguar Passport to Service. A Jaguar Daimler Heritage Certificate is also on file with a current V5C document. For more information, please contact: James McWilliam james.mcwilliam@handh.co.uk 07943 584760
Registration No: UO 6944 Chassis No: 259167 MOT: ExemptSubject to a full restoration during the 1980sSupplied with an extensive history file that includes a buff logbook and many period documentsConverted to utility specification by Whiteway’s Cider in period and eligible for historic commercial vehicle eventsMorris Motors began in 1912 when bicycle manufacturer, William Morris, moved on from the sale, hire and repair of cars to car manufacturing. He planned a new light car assembled from bought-in components; in this way he was able to retain ownership by keeping within the bounds of his own capital resources. A factory was opened in 1913 at the former Oxford Military College in Cowley, Oxford, where Morris's first car, the two-seat Morris Oxford 'Bullnose' was assembled. Morris Cowley was a name given to various cars produced by the Morris Motor Company from 1915 to 1958. In 1926, the Bullnose radiator was replaced by a flat version known as the ‘Flatnose’ and built by Morris until 1931.First registered on the 31st May 1928, 'UO 2944' was built as a two-seat Tourer with dickey which was converted within the first few years of its life into a very pretty utility vehicle by Whiteway's Cider of Exeter. Fitted with its smart wooden pickup back, it was used regularly to transport bags of apples from the orchard to the pressing factory. It subsequently was transferred into the ownership of a local doctor and remained in his custodianship for over fifty years and was used to travel the length and breadth of the country - with a number of house moves between Devon and London recorded in the buff logbook on file. In 1980, and now in a rather dilapidated state, it was donated to a charity auction in aid of a local church and was sold to a Morris enthusiast who carried out an extensive, ground-up restoration which is documented via a set of photographs. After restoration, it became a regular sight at numerous Bullnose Morris Club events throughout the 1980s and featured in a number of the club magazines. Offered for sale in 2002, our vendor (who owns a number of Morris Oxfords and Cowleys) bought the vehicle via auction and has maintained the car himself ever since, attending a number of events including the London to Brighton Commercial Vehicle Run, where it was greatly received. In the vendor's words, mechanically it is in 'good fettle' and starts up very easily with all functions working as intended. The bodywork is still in a very respectable condition, with aging that is expected from a 40 year old restoration and the interior is in 'very good' condition, with the Blue leather seat suiting it very well. The mohair hood, also now 40 years old, is somewhat faded but appears in overall 'fair' condition. Now ready for a new, loving owner, 'UO 6944' is ready for enjoyment and will surely give many years of happy driving and should turn heads with its interesting history.

Registration No: PUI 3831 Chassis No: SAJJNADW3DB170271 MOT: July 2024Current ownership for c.8 yearsFitted with TWR style bumpers and rear spoilerFinished in light Blue complemented to a Cream leather interiorLaunched in 1975, Jaguar's XJS was never envisaged as a direct replacement for the E-Type. More of a soporific grand tourer than an out-and-out sports car, it was designed to seamlessly blur borders rather than blast down back roads. To this end, it was equipped with automatic transmission as standard. Although, when fed the quoted 295bhp and 318lbft of torque developed by a post-1981 H.E. (high efficiency) 5.3 litre V12 engine, this still resulted in a claimed top speed of 150mph and 0-60mph in less than eight seconds. Introduced at the 1988 Geneva Motor Show, the long-awaited full convertible version featured a reinforced floorpan, frameless doors and sophisticated electric hood (complete with heated glass rear window). Underpinned by the same all-round independent coil-sprung suspension and power-assisted rack and pinion steering as its Fixed Head Coupe siblings, the soft-top came with anti-lock brakes as standard. Priced at some £40,000, a waiting list was quick to form.First registered on the 23rd May 1990, finished in light Blue complemented to a Cream leather interior with a Blue hood, this XJ-S has resided in current ownership for some 8 years. This Convertible example of the XJ-S marque is fitted with the period TWR-style bumpers and rear spoiler, evoking the motorsport heritage of the XJ-S. It is being offered with an MOT certificate into July 2024 and current V5C is present. For more information, please contact: James McWilliam james.mcwilliam@handh.co.uk 07943 584760
Registration No: 549 GYP Chassis No: 860554 MOT: ExemptOriginally built as a right-hand drive Fixed Head Coupé but was re-shelled as a Roadster during an extensive overhaul in the 1990sSupplied with a history file dating back to 1973 including Green continuation logbookA home market car that has been improved with features such as a full synchromesh 4.2 E-Type gearboxOwned by the vendor since 2018 and maintained regardless of costPLEASE NOTE:This lot has a fault with the electric hood which is not functioning. The fault is believed to be with the control module but this has not been confirmed.Famously launched at the 1961 Geneva Salon, the Jaguar E-Type created a furore on its debut and has become one of the most iconic designs in automotive history. With its stunning looks, outrageous performance and accessible price tag, the newcomer left rivals reeling and customers clamouring. While early competition success in the hands of Graham Hill and Roy Salvadori among others helped cement its reputation on the racetrack, the list of celebrity owners ensured its cult status on the roads. Built as a monocoque with an engine cradling front sub-frame a la D-Type, the model's combination of all-round independent suspension, rack-and-pinion steering and four-wheel disc brakes gave excellent road-holding and handling capabilities. Fed by triple SU HD8 carburettors and topped with a 'straight port' DOHC cylinder head, its 3781cc straight-six engine was quoted as developing some 265bhp and 260lbft. Allied to a four-speed Moss gearbox, the free-revving unit reputedly enabled the E-Type to sprint from 0-60mph in 6.9 seconds and onto 150mph – figures the press cars certainly managed even if the standard ones couldn’t quite! Seemingly borrowed from a light aircraft, the wonderful turned aluminium centre console that adorned its cockpit was complemented by scalloped 'Dunlopillo' seats and a wood-rim steering wheel. Achingly beautiful yet viciously quick, the sublime E-Type remains for many the ultimate production Jaguar.Understood to have been manufactured in 1962, chassis 860554 was purportedly first registered in July 1964. Built as a UK Market, right-hand drive Fixed Head Coupé in Blue. Little is known of the early history of the E-Type until 1973, when it was under the custodianship of Hardings Motors Ltd of London Road, Leigh-on-Sea. The car was purpotedly sold to a local gentleman by Hardings - a Mr. J.I. Gilmore of Church Road, Shoeburyness and then through the hands of a number of owners (one as far away as Plymouth) before it was apparently laid up until the 1980s. By this point, it is understood that '549 GYP' was bought by a Gentleman who was ex-Jaguar who deemed it necessary to overhaul it. For whatever reason (either increasing values of Roadsters particularly or a very rotten FHC shell) the car was re-shelled as a Roadster during this extensive overhaul which included painting the new bodywork in Sherwood Green and trimming the interior in tan leather to full 1964 3.8 Litre E-Type specification including the vinyl covered centre console. The 3.8 Litre engine unit was also overhauled around this time and it is believed that the fully synchromesh gearbox from a 4.2 Litre car was fitted to improve the driving experience in place of the original Moss gearbox. Having been in the ownership of two other enthusiasts since this period, the owner (who owns a number of fine Jaguars) bought '549 GYP' in 2018 to 'cover for' his other E-Type whilst it was away being restored and has enjoyed a number of long trips and rallies with the car. The car has been maintained exceptionally within the vendor's ownership, who describes it as being 'ready to go anywhere' as it is in 'very good' order mechanically. The history file backs up these claims and includes a number of service receipts and invoices for shotblasting and repainting the inside of the bonnet and headlamp bowls and the fitment of a Lucas 123 distributor. Now, with a driveway and garage filling up with a number of 'Big Cats', including his original E-Type that is back home from restoration, it is time for this iconic vehicle to find a new, loving home.On our inspection, we were greeted with the pleasing sight of the Sherwood Green paintwork with Black Mohair hood, which the present owner describes as being in 'very good' order, having stood up remarkably well given that the overhaul was completed in 1995. The Tan Leather upholstery has also worn with an attractive patina which is to be expected from nearly 30 years of loving ownership. However, please note that if you are of the opinion that everything must be of concours standard, it will need some amount of work to arrive to that level. The car started remarkably quickly when we visited the car with the note of the legendary twin-cam straight six resembling a purr through a fresh looking stainless steel exhaust system.Presenting the perfect opportunity to own a 3.8 Litre Series 1 E-Type Roadster at a much lower premium than a more original car might, this Jaguar would make a fantastic drivers' car for anybody who can overlook a six-digit number stamped on a chassis plate - after all, just look at it!

Registration No: FRB 418L Chassis No: 5917T MOT: ExemptCurrent ownership for some twenty-two years1 of just 12 Marcos GTs with the Triumph 2500cc engineNotably improved during the vendor's ownershipExtensive chassis enhancementsMarcos was founded in 1959 by Jem Marsh and Frank Costin, and it was Costin's earlier work on the De Havilland Mosquito that led to the newcomer's first monocoque chassis being constructed from marine plywood. The later Luton-built versions benefited from less radical styling by Dennis Adams and were powered by a range of Ford engines. Nine Xylons and 13 Luton Gullwings saw the light of day, many of which were raced - light and nimble, they were very successful; especially in the hands of Jackie Stewart, Jackie Oliver and Marsh himself. Costin left the company in 1961, following which all design matters fell to Dennis Adams and his brother Peter, and it was their GT of 1964 that really put Marcos on the map. By 1969 the famous wooden chassis had been usurped by a more conventional steel one, and by 1971 Ford V6 power had been exchanged for that of the Volvo straight-six engine widely used until Marcos was forced into liquidation in 1972.Chassis 5917T was manufactured in 1972, being first registered on the road on the 21st of August that year. One of just twelve GTs fitted with the Triumph 2.5-litre straight-six engine allied to a four-speed manual transmission with overdrive, the Marcos is finished in Red paintwork with Black vinyl interior upholstery and has a Black sunroof. In previous ownership from 1992, the Marcos is understood to have received either a full replacement (non-Marcos) chassis or extensive chassis repairs, which appear to be of a better quality than the original. Acquired by the vendor in 2002, the Marcos was running (albeit poorly) and requiring improvement when purchased.The vendor then provided the Marcos with an engine overhaul including changing to twin SU carburettors from Strombergs and thereafter used ‘FRB 418L’ regularly for around five years. Gradually improved across the vendor's ownership, the Marcos has benefitted from bodywork improvements, paintwork throughout including the underside of the bonnet and boot, changes to enhance the usability including better headlamps and the inclusion of indicator and wiper sticks onto the steering column, a new fuel tank, and re-trimmed sunroof. Starting readily and both running and driving well during our photography session, the Marcos has been used for shows and events but has seen minimal use since the lockdown.Supplied with previous MOTs and tax discs, old photographs, and a current V5C document, the Marcos is accompanied by the original alloy wheels. Showing some 79,500 miles on the odometer, the Marcos has two former keepers recorded on the V5C document. For more information, please contact: Paul Cheetham paul.cheetham@handh.co.uk 07538 667452
Registration No: WL 369 Chassis No: 151057 MOT: ExemptRestored during the 1960s and hardly used since, although recommissioned and kept in ready-to-use condition by the vendorSubject to a full engine overhaul within recent yearsDesirable two-seat tourer with Dickey seatIntroduced during 1913, the basic Morris 'Bullnose' design lasted until 1926 by which time its variants accounted for an impressive forty-five percent of new car sales in the UK. Compared to domestic and foreign rivals in the 12hp-14hp market, the model offered notably good performance courtesy of its torquey, four-cylinder engines and light yet robust leaf-sprung chassis. As well as having its engine enlarged from 1548cc to 1802cc for 1923, the more expensive Oxford derivative gained a longer wheelbase and four-wheel brakes two years later.Pleasing supplied with its original bill of sale, this charming Morris Oxford has an extensive history file dating all the way back to the 1920s and its buff log book displaying a number of previous owners - and still retains its original registration number. Understood to have been subject to ground up restoration during the 1960s when vintage cars were back in fashion thanks to clubs such as the VSCC - WL 369 was then painted in Plum over Black as it presents in today, used until the early 1970s and then laid up. The vendor took ownership of the car in 2013 and a previous owner had attempted to unseize the engine, although this had displaced a bore liner in the process. The vendor undertook a full engine overhaul with a Morris specialist and ensured the rest of the car was mechanically sorted. Sadly, in his 10 years of ownership the vendor has not used the car on the road at all, although has ensured it is in fine fettle throughout, and has therefore decided that it is time for this fine little car to find a new, loving home.

Registration No: YP 3916 Chassis No: 12651 MOT: ExemptIn current ownership for some thirty yearsTwo-seater coachwork with dickie seatBrakes relined and magneto overhauled in the last couple of yearsThe AC model made famous by The Hon. Victor Bruce’s win in the 1926 Monte Carlo RallyPLEASE NOTE: Since the catalogue went to press, we have been informed that the first Aceca had a single, passenger door only.It is therefore thought that this lot is a Royal Two-Seater with Dickey model. Although AC’s reputation was established by John Weller’s highly advanced overhead-camshaft six-cylinder engine fitted to this example, which offered 15.7bhp and 75mph in period, its early offerings relied on proprietary four-cylinder engines. The AC Six chassis featured quarter-elliptic springing front and rear, a three-speed gearbox in unit with the rear axle and worm final drive. Front-wheel brakes were optional at first, standard issue from 1927. Rated at 12hp for taxation purposes the four-cylinder AC remained in production until 1926, the firm relying exclusively on the Weller 15.7hp six thereafter. The Six took its place in history at the hands of AC works driver, The Hon. Victor Austin Bruce’s, achieving an outright win at the 1926 Monte Carlo Rally.Chassis 12651 was manufactured new in the year of The Hon. Victor Austin Bruce’s Monte Carlo Rally win, 1926, being supplied new to the United Kingdom and first registered on the 16th of July that year. Fitted with two-seater coachwork with dickie seat, the AC is presented in the attractive colour combination of British Racing Green paintwork with Black wings, and complementary Green interior upholstery. It is accompanied by its full weather equipment (hood, tonneau, and sidescreens) trimmed in Black, and features a three-speed box and rear brakes. Purchased from a friend of the vendor, who had owned the Six since 1988, the vendor acquired ‘YP 3916’ in 1994 and has used the car on several runs and rallies including touring the Cotswolds.Coming off the road in 2020, following the lockdown, the AC has remained off the road since and will therefore require a degree of recommissioning before pressing into use again. Despite this, during this period 12651 has benefitted from relined brakes and an overhauled magneto. The vendor informs that he believes the AC is ‘very good throughout mechanically’ and therefore only a light recommissioning should be required. Offered with a current V5C document showing just three former keepers, ‘YP 3916’ with the famous Weller’s six-cylinder engine is a very usable 1920s car and would be a great recommissioning project.

Registration No: T.B.A Chassis No: 74000965C MOT: ExemptFinished in Burgundy with Stone and with a Light Grey leather interiorOriginal service book and Rover Owner’s Instruction ManualA spare set of tyres, interior woodwork, factory spot lamps and spares includedCredible 22,700 miles recorded on the odometerPLEASE NOTE: Upon the successful sale to a UK buyer a V62 will be completed with a view to a new V5c document being issued by the DVLALaunched in Autumn 1962, the Rover P5 was conceived to stave off increasingly refined competition from the likes of Jaguar and Mercedes-Benz. Available in Saloon and later Coupe guises - both of which employed four doors - the big Rover was the luxuriously-equipped with independent torsion-bar front suspension, a leaf-sprung 'live' rear axle and disc/drum brakes. The initial 3.0-litre OISE straight-six engine was a development of the one used by its P4 stablemate (the production runs of the two models over-lapped), and automatic transmission, overdrive on the manual, and Burman power steering were all optional, with overdrive becoming standard from May 1960.Finished in Burgundy with Stone and with a Light Grey leather interior, chassis 74000965C was first registered on the 10th of August 1964, to the first owner, Maurice Langridge of Brentwood, Essex, before passing into the ownership (not stamped on the RF60) of a Raymond Langridge, Sawbridgeworth, Hertfordshire, at an unknown date, but likely within the same family.Currently Southern Ireland registered the Rover's previous UK registration number was 'EWC 443B' which will hopefully be re-issued. A service book with the following entries: Eastern Automobiles of Chelmsford at 1,166 miles on 8.10.1964; at 3,033 on 16.3.65; at 6,597 on 20.10.65; at 9,363 on 19.9.66; at 11,737 on 20.6.67 and with JD Vehicle Services, Middlesex at 16,659 on 18.4.00; 19,101 at 19.5.05. The P5 is offered with a number of old tax discs, a Rover book pack with the Rover Service book, Rover Distributors and Dealers book, Rover Service Guide and Warranty book, Rover Owner’s Instruction Manual and the old buff logbook and Eire/Ireland Registration Document. A spare set of tyres, interior woodwork, factory spot lamps plus spares are included in the sale and a new exhaust has been fitted.

Registration No: NNB 259G Chassis No: 1R8948 MOT: ExemptDesirable 'matching numbers' example with just 12,000 recorded milesFinished in its original colour combination of Primrose Yellow paintwork with a Black leather interior and Black hoodLong-term previous ownership (thirty years)Recent new mohair hood and full repaintOffered with Heritage CertificatePLEASE NOTE: This lot now has a saleroom estimate of £50,000 - £60,000.Interested parties should note that with the minimal use the E-Type has seen, a degree of recommissioning should be anticipated.Triumphantly unveiled at the 1961 Geneva Motor Show, the Jaguar E-Type created a furore thanks to its supercar performance, stunning looks and modest price tag. Early racing success at the hands of Graham Hill and Roy Salvadori amongst others helped cement the newcomer's reputation. Built as a monocoque with an engine cradling front sub-frame, the E-type's combination of all-around independent suspension and disc brakes allied to rack-and-pinion steering resulted in excellent roadholding and handling capabilities. The indomitable straight-six XK twin-cam engine supplied abundant power. If the design had an Achilles' heel then it was the recalcitrant Moss gearbox. However, Jaguar was quick to correct this shortcoming with a four-speeder of its own design just part of a continual programme of E-Type development that saw the model metamorphose through three Series. Introduced in August 1968, the Series II cars were distinguishable by their revised bumper and light arrangements. Less noticeable was the increased size of the front air intake that in conjunction with dual cooling fans made the Series II better behaved in hot weather and heavy traffic. With its 4235cc engine developing a quoted 265bhp and 283lbft of torque, it was reputedly capable of nearly 150mph and 0-60mph in 7.5 seconds. Available in open two-seater, Fixed-Head two-seater and Fixed-Head 2+2-seater guises, the American market accounted for the vast majority of Series II production. 8,627 open two-seaters made were made.Chassis 1R8948 was dispatched to British Leyland, New York on the 3rd of May 1969, and was finished in arguably the best E-Type colour combination of Primrose Yellow paintwork with complementary Black leather interior trim and a Black hood – pleasingly the same livery in which the car is very smartly presented today. Among the accompanying history file is a document from the Illinois-based keeper who purchased the Jaguar in 1987 from the previous owner who had purchased the E-Type as a retirement fund and thus had scarcely used ‘1R8948’ with a view of maintaining its value. Retaining the Jaguar from 1987 to 2014, the document details his tenure; including the long periods of storage that account for the car's incredibly low mileage, as well as extensive improvements.Repatriated in 2014, the E-Type is now offered with just 12,067 miles on the odometer, making this 55-year-old matching numbers E-Type barely run in! At some stage, it has benefited from having its power-strangling Stromberg carburettors replaced by a trio of UK specification SUs, and having been converted to right-hand-drive. In current ownership since 2019, the vendor has again scarcely used the E-Type to maintain the low mileage. Offered with a Jaguar Heritage Certificate; reproduction handbook and workshop manual; a collection of invoices and a current V5C. Clearly the subject of ongoing maintenance over time, 'NNB 259G' boasts a previously retrimmed interior; brake and suspension overhaul including new bushes; a new mohair hood, exhaust system and Michelin tyres. The Jaguar was also repainted as recently as 2018. Surely one of the lowest mileage E-Type examples extant! For more information, please contact: Paul Cheetham paul.cheetham@handh.co.uk 07538 667452
Registration No: OEJ 665 Chassis No: A-AV8/13582 MOT: ExemptThe subject of restoration work in recent yearsSome £4,500 of parts purchaseFront disc brake conversion and other uprgadesOriginal owner's manual and a collection of spare parts includedIntroduced in 1956, the Austin A35 could be had as a two- or four-door saloon, two-door Countryman estate or Van. The latter became a familiar sight the length and breadth of the UK serving tradesmen and delivery drivers alike. Powered by three different A-Series OHV four-cylinder engines during its twelve-year production life, the diminutive commercial was surprisingly fun to drive thanks to the provision of independent front suspension, a well-located hypoid rear axle and hydraulic drum brakes. With so many worked into the ground, survivors are comparatively few and far between.First registered in the UK on 9th October 1962 and destined for Evans Motors Limited, Camarthen and then likely, Lloyd Motors, Aberayron (dealer sticker on the car) for Thomas Davies of Treberfedd Farm, Lampeter, and just 1 former keeper is recorded on the V5C. Accompanied by a BMIHT certificate, in 2020, the owner has taken the time to put the van back on its original 1962 issued registration number ‘OEJ 665’, as recorded manually in a copy of a local authority ‘Record of Motor Vehicles’ on file.In recent years the van has been the subject of restoration work to bring the condition back to a usable and conserved condition. There are many invoices on file for parts purchased at a cost in excess of £4,500, many from ESM Morris Minors Ltd. In 2021 and 2022, amongst the items supplied: the front horseshoe, a new rear bumper, wheel bearings rocker and sump gaskets, rear chassis legs, poly bushes, rear hangers, back axle hub and pinion seal, gearbox front cover and a clutch kit. Additionally, work on the braking system included the rear brake frame cylinder assembly and a front disc brake conversion.The engine received new big ends and mains, pistons and rings, thrust bearings, oil and water pumps, a duplex timing chain, a spin-off oil filter conversion, alternator conversion, alloy radiator, leads, plugs, points, a reconditioned exchange unleaded cylinder head, fuel pump, pipes and SU carb filters. Body panels purchased from ESM included front and rear panels, kick and sill panels. Inside there is an aftermarket rev counter, map light and a modern radio unit. Accompanying the little van are a couple of period Austin books, collection of spares and a current V5C. For more information, please contact: James McWilliam james.mcwilliam@handh.co.uk 07943 584760
