The Z3 was the first modern mass-market roadster produced by BMW as well as the first new BMW model to be assembled in the United States. It was introduced as a 1996 model year vehicle, shortly after being featured in the James Bond movie 'GoldenEye'. While the film was number one at the box office, sales of the car peaked and it was sold out by the time the car was launched. The Z3 was designed by Joji Nagashima of the BMW design team and developed from the E36 platform of the 3-Series. The resulting platform is often referred to as the E36/7(roadster) or E36/8(coupé). When launched, only the 1.9 litre straight-four engine was offered, but its 138bhp was not up to expectations. A 2.2 litre engine producing 168bhp was made available for the more enthusiastic driver and in 1997 a powerful six cylinder 2.8-litre engine producing 190bhp was an option, or a 3.0-litre straight-six with 228bhp.This very nice example is presented in probably the best colour combination of dark metallic blue with light tan leather interior and a black hood. The car has always been garaged whilst in our client’s ownership and it was last service in August 2023 by Autopics Limited. Presented in 8/9 of 10 condition according to the present vendor, this is a great pocket rocket convertible sports car by the famous German manufacturer added to which it is powered by the smooth and more desirable 2,800cc engine. Great fun! Consigned by James Good FUN EXAMPLE OF THIS POPULAR LITTLE CONVERTIBLE SPORTS CARPOWERED BY THE DESIRABLE 2.8 LITRE ENGINE

The Austin Healey Frogeye Sprite, is an iconic British sports car that has captivated automotive enthusiasts since its introduction in 1958. Designed by Donald Healey and produced by the Austin division of the British Motor Corporation, this small, affordable sports car became a symbol of post-war motoring innocence and spirited driving. The most distinctive feature of the Frogeye Sprite is its unique design. Its bulbous headlights are mounted atop the front bonnet, giving it a playful, cartoonish appearance that resembles a frog or a bug’s eye — hence the nickname ‘Frogeye.’ This unconventional styling was not only eye-catching but also practical; the raised headlights provided better illumination for night driving and helped reduce the car's overall height. Beneath its quirky exterior, the Frogeye Sprite was engineered for performance. It featured a 948cc, four-cylinder engine that produced around 43 horsepower, allowing for a top speed of approximately 80 mph. The weight of the car, at just over 1,600 pounds, combined with an agile chassis, gave the Frogeye Sprite exceptional handling characteristics. It became famous for its fun and engaging drive, making it a popular choice among amateur racers and weekend enthusiasts alike. The Frogeye Sprite was built on a simple platform that made it easy and affordable to maintain, which contributed to its popularity. The interior of the car was minimalistic, designed primarily for driving rather than luxury. With a basic dashboard and straightforward controls, the focus was squarely on the driving experience. This simplicity appealed to many drivers who valued the raw, unfiltered connection to the road. Production of the Frogeye Sprite continued until 1961, when it was succeeded by the later variants, including the Mk II. During its short production run, approximately 49,000 units of the Frogeye Sprite were produced, making it an enduring classic in the automotive world. The car’s racing pedigree, affordability, and quirky charm have solidified its status as a beloved icon. Today, the Austin Healey Frogeye Sprite is a sought-after by collectors, with enthusiasts restoring and preserving these charming vehicles. Its place in automotive history is secure, representing a joyful era of driving where style, simplicity, and fun took precedence over technology and luxury.Originally registered on 7th July 1960 this Frogeye Sprite is owned by a private collector, joining his impressive collection of other British sportscars. It is finished in maroon with a matching interior. The engine starts and runs well although this Austin Healey has been used very little of late and some light recommissioning may be necessary. It appears to be in sound condition and is offered for sale without reserve. Whether on a racetrack or a winding country road, the Frogeye Sprite continues to bring smiles to the faces of those fortunate enough to experience its delightful character.

The AMG V8 engine has a high-pressure die-cast alloy cylinder block and was one of the quickest production sports saloons in the world at the time of its launch with its impressive 507 bhp and 465 ft lb of torque accelerating the luxury saloon from 0-60 mph in just 4.3 seconds and on to a limited 155 mph. The E63 AMG is now mated to the 7G-Tronic automatic transmission. While the E500 and E550 had the standard Mercedes Airmatic DC suspension with adaptive damping, the E63 AMG has the AMG-tuned Airmatic suspension which with the stability control turned off gave it far better driving dynamics than its non-AMG predecessors.This stunning 2011 Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG Saloon is presented in Obsidian Black metallic with matching Anthracite Black leather interior and black ash wood trim.

As part of the MG line-up, the Midget has been known for its lightweight design and agile handling, making it a popular choice among driving enthusiasts. Featuring a petite two-seater configuration, this car is both compact and fun, ideal for those who appreciate a spirited driving experience. Under the bonnet, the 1970 MG Midget is powered by a 1.3-litre four-cylinder engine, which delivers a modest yet satisfying output of around 65 horsepower. While this may not seem substantial by today’s standards, the Midget’s low weight (approximately 1,590 lbs) allows for impressive performance and excellent fuel efficiency. Coupled with a four-speed manual transmission, the Midget offers an exciting, hands-on driving experience, with the engine sound enhancing its charm on winding roads. Visually, the 1970 MG Midget showcases classic lines and an appealing design that captures the essence of 1970s motoring. The round headlights, chrome bumpers, and signature MG grille are all characteristic features that contribute to its timeless aesthetic. Available in a variety of colours, the Midget was designed for open-top driving, with a convertible roof that adds to its allure, allowing enthusiasts to enjoy sunny days on the road. The MG Midget has garnered a cult following over the decades. Owners cherish not just its performance, but also the sense of freedom and nostalgia it evokes. Club events and classic car shows often feature these spirited little cars, where owners share their passion and pride in preserving this piece of automotive history.Originally registered on 9th January 1970 this MG Midget has formed part of a private collection in recent times. It has been well stored in a dry garage, however, a small amount of recommissioning may be required. We are advised the engine starts promptly and runs with good oil pressure. Finished in white with black interior this early Midget, with its chrome bumpers and Rostyle wheels, together with a rollover bar is a good looking example. Overall, the 1970 MG Midget stands out as a representative of a bygone era, cherished by collectors and drivers alike for its fun, engaging, and timeless driving experience. A good entry level car into classic motoring. Consigned by Stewart Banks. STARTS AND RUNS WELLWILL REQUIRE SOME LIGHT RECOMMISSIONING
Lot 102
The MGB was launched in May 1962 to replace the MGA. Introduced as a four-cylinder roadster, a coupé with 2+2 seating was added in 1965. The MGB was a relatively modern design at the time of its introduction, utilising a monocoque structure instead of the traditional 'body-on-frame' construction used on both the MGA and T-types. The lightweight design reduced manufacturing costs while adding to overall vehicle strength. Wind-up windows were standard and a comfortable driver's compartment offered plenty of legroom. The MGB's performance was considered brisk at the time of its introduction with a 0-60mph time of just over 11 seconds aided by the relatively light weight of the car.This lovely cherished example of one of Britain’s favourite sports cars is presented in red with black interior and has the benefit of nearly new hood. Its lively 1800 engine is mated to a manual gearbox with overdrive. The car was purchased by the present owner’s father in 2013 and has been in a dry garage since and was declared SORN in 2017. Since then and recently, the engine has been re conditioned and the car has been lightly re commissioned, resulting in a car that can be driven straight away. These are fun sports cars to drive and enjoy a great following by their car club where spares and events can be accessed. Consigned by James Good RE CONDITIONED ENGINEGOOD OVERAL CONDITION

The Jowett Motor Company was originally founded in Huddersfield, West Yorkshire by brothers Benjamin and William. The Jowett brothers began trading in 1901 and they produced both cars and commercials which were designed for the steep hills and sharp bends of the Yorkshire Woollen towns and Yorkshire Dales. Jowett used aluminium extensively and their vehicles were light, low-geared, reliable and competitively priced. They favoured the ability to climb over speed.This 1934 Jowett Kestrel presents well in dark green and black coachwork following an earlier restoration. On a recent inspection the car started first time and we are told that this rare British classic runs well. Its lightweight construction contributes to agile handling, making it popular among enthusiasts. With a combination of elegance and practicality, the Kestrel embodies the innovation of the 1930s automotive industry, standing out as a charming piece of automotive history. This Jowett Kestrel is available due to the unfortunate passing of its enthusiast owner and Jowett aficionado. Offered without reserve this is an ideal addition to any collection.

Introduced early in 1971, this impressive two-seater sports car replaced the 280 SL. The body and chassis of the third generation SL was considerably heavier and longer than its predecessor, but still showed a slight resemblance to them. The front and rear axles were similar to those of the 200-250 models, with independent wheel suspension using double wishbones and anti-drive control at the front and a diagonal swing axle at the rear. A four-speed automatic transmission was available as an option. The 3.5 litre V8 engine underwent slight modifications to those being used on other models and the gear lever was placed on the floor in the centre of the car. The standard transmission provided a top speed of 130mph and a very respectable 0-62mph in 8.8 seconds. As with the previous generation SL's, the vehicle came as an open roadster with removable hard top roof. The R107 body shape went on to become one of the longest running styles from Mercedes-Benz, remaining in production until 1989 with some 13 variants during that time. Even by today's standards for sports cars the 350 SL's spacious cockpit looks excellent with great ergonomics.This very nice early example of this iconic marque formed part of a private collection and has recently been recommissioned. The car is presented in the rare and very attractive light blue with blue interior, dark blue hood and a dark blue factory hardtop. The car comes with a history file and a fresh MoT test certificate. This 350SL is certainly a rare find, being presented in its colour combination you see today and is powered by the ubiquitous V8 providing wonderful power for cruising.

As part of the W115 series, produced from 1968 to 1976, the 200 model epitomizes the elegance and robustness that Mercedes-Benz is known for. While not the most powerful engine in the line-up, it provides a smooth and reliable driving experience, making it an excellent choice for both city commuting and long-distance journeys. The four-speed manual transmission, or the optional automatic, contributes to a seamless driving experience, allowing for smooth gear shifts and efficient power delivery.

One owner from newRecently servicedThe Lotus M100 Elan, launched in 1989, was a two-seater, convertible sports car designed by Lotus and built with the development and testing resources of General Motors. Around £35 million was invested in its development, more than any other car in Lotus history. Its design, featuring a fibreglass composite body over a rigid steel monocoque chassis, was true to Lotus founder Colin Chapman's original philosophy of achieving performance through lightweight. The name 'Elan' connected the car with its 1960s ancestor, the original Lotus Elan. Conceived as a mass-market car and in particular one that would appeal to US buyers. Consequently, Lotus put an enormous effort into testing the car; over a two-year period 19 crash cars and 42 development vehicles were built, logging nearly a million test miles in locations from Arizona to the Arctic. The Elan was driven at racing speeds for 24 hours around the track at Snetterton. Finally, each new car was test-driven for around 30 miles at Lotus's Hethel factory to check for any manufacturing defects before being shipped to dealers. First registered 31st March 1993 to its only owner and father of our vendor this stunning and original UK supplied M100 Elan is finished in Metallic Blue with a grey leather trim with cloth inserts and has covered under 18,000 miles from new. Having been always garaged and used on sunny days only the car has just been treated to a full service including new cambelt and light recommissioning with Lotus specialists Hofmann’s of Henley to the tune of circa £3,000 who also completed the MoT now until August 2025 and commented it was spotless but for one or two minor stone chips. Described by our vendor as staggeringly original this is a genuine collectors example in this condition. Offered with a detailed history file, original handbook and stamped service booklet, this sprightly modern classic will put a smile on the face of all who drive her.

The Austin Seven Swallow is arguably the first Jaguar produced as it was designed, styled and built by William Lyons & William Walmsley at the Swallow Coachbuilding Company before it became Jaguar Cars shortly after World War II. Production of their stylish sidecars began in the workshops of their Swallow Motor Company, whilst, at the same time, Sir Herbert Austin launched the cheap and simple ‘Seven’ model to compete with the light cycle cars of the period. An association was formed between Austin and the Swallow Sidecar Company and, although somewhat at arms’ length, each firm benefitted from the association with the Swallow coachwork giving the Seven a fashionable air that wasn’t available in house at Austin. The first hand formed aluminium over wood Swallow Roadster bodies appeared on the Austin Seven chassis in 1927 with the two-door saloon being launched at The London Motor Show in October 1928. The Swallow was known for its distinctive lines, colour schemes and bold, barrel like grille shell. It’s estimated that Swallow produced approximately 1,700 saloon bodies.With very few Austin Seven Swallow saloons remaining today, we are pleased to be able to offer one of these attractive and distinctive saloons from a private collector. This Swallow is largely original; the interior displays its factory headlining that has worn well and is complemented by an attractively finished dashboard and instrument set. We are informed that the Swallow is, mechanically in very good order, and apart from routine maintenance, has wanted for nothing. The 747cc four-cylinder engine was completely rebuilt in 2000 with evidential paperwork and little mileage since. This work included a re-bore, new sleeves, valves and big end bearings, whilst the three-speed manual gearbox, is slick and works perfectly. Structurally, the Swallow appears to be excellent, and a look underneath shows an exceptionally clean chassis. The coachwork is finished in the combination of navy blue over light blue. Some of the paintwork appears cracked (no doubt due to a previous repaint some years ago) but does not detract from the overall attractive look of the car. The original Swallow mascot, mounted upon the radiator cap comes with the car and is an attractive feature. This Swallow will arrive at the sale with, a current UK V5 registration document and significant history folder. With Austin Seven Swallows becoming increasingly hard to find within the market, this must represent an ideal opportunity to acquire a rare and interesting example of the ‘Seven’ marque.

Fantastic restoration opportunityDesirable 2/4 seater exampleWith more short chassis cars than tourers being produced in 1929, the efforts of the Aston Martin Works were clearly going towards the sports end of the market. By the end of the year the ‘Standard Sports Model’ had developed into the ‘Four-seater "International" Sports Model’, more commonly known simply as the "International". It was quickly and widely regarded as one of the best light sports cars of the day. The appearance of the cars at Brooklands racetrack and in rallies, sprints and hill climbs all around the country alongside the works team cars, increased the cars’ sporting reputation. The "International" was expensive but performance was good enough for the motoring press to praise the car highly. A significant amount of advertising was placed in the popular motoring press highlighting competition successes.The four-seater "International" Sports was built on the short chassis, most of the first series cars were bodied by E. Bertelli Ltd. The standard "International" coachwork was a slightly perpendicular open 2/4-seater, with minimal space in the back for passengers. It was characterized by a rather high profile stemming from a tall ‘wet case’ radiator (the shell forming the water tank) which was further emphasized by the 21" wheels. The fuel tank was enclosed beneath the rear of the body and the spare wheel bracketed on to the body at the extreme rear. The exhaust system was taken from the cylinder head in a simple manifold with the downpipe going down inside the bonnet to the tail pipe and exhaust box below the car. The windscreen folded forward from the base, not flat onto the scuttle (with the exception of the "International Le Mans" model).The engine, a Renwick & Bertelli designed overhead camshaft four-cylinder eight valve engine with dry sump as per the ‘Standard Sports Model’ had a power output approximately 60 bhp at 4,750 rpm. With twin SU 1⅛" side draught carburettor, Magneto ignition and two ‘Autopulse’ fuel pumps mounted on the rear of the chassis. Aston Martin designed a 4-speed crash gearbox with straight cut gears, constant mesh main shaft and layshaft, dog clutch fourth speed and reverse. Performance was brisk! approximately 80 mph and the price new in 1932 was circa £595.Originally purchased and registered in April 1931 to a W.H. Birmingham of Pyford near Woking, Surrey, this International 2/4-S passed to Viscount Curzon (later sixth Earl Howe) who was a known racing driver and Vice-Chairman of the Royal Automobile Club, director of Automobile Proprietary Ltd., Motoring Services Ltd., and a member of the RAC Public Policy Committee, the British Motor Sport Council. AMOC records show that GO 825 was never raced and thus presumably used on the road by the Viscount.In 1950 AMOC records show that a Mr R.G. Phillips in Cardiff owned GO 825 before the buff logbook shows Mr Gregory purchased it in Wimbledon in July 1952. Later Mr Norman and Mr Todd both owned the car in 1957, both residing in Surrey before Todd sold it to PO W.P. Dymund of RAF Debdon, however he also owned the car for less than a year before our vendors father Dr N. Powers of Cambridge purchased the car. He eventually moved to Binstead on the Isle of White with the car and has owned until his passing recently.The 1931 Registration document lists the car as cream with maroon but in 1957 the colour changed to green, the colour still found on the body today. The car has been in the Powers family for 65 years and his daughter had hoped to restore it with her father. The car, even in its current state will be missed by the family but unfortunately, they are unable to undertake the restoration themselves. An open bodied sports car in 2/4 configuration as denoted in the AMOC records. The original books and the International information are also available as collected by Dr Powers over his ownership.When Dr Powers passed away, the car was in two separate locations, but it has now been bought together and catalogued as you can see on the Historics website. The car is believed to be a fairly complete but requiring full and detailed restoration. The chassis number can be found stamped on the chassis but sadly the original chassis plate is not present. The items will all be at the auction location for collection with a selection of parts on display, with a pull photo catalogue reflecting that of the website to ascertain what is included in the sale.Included with the Lot are AMOC documents from the car’s early history and photos of the car in its original state, Buff logbooks and some later invoices from Dr Powers Tenure.

The elegant-shaped radiator and the compound curves of the front of the bonnet can be traced back to the DB3S with the sculpted interior and predominate curved lines, trimmed in Connolly leather further complimented by burr walnut panels. The engine is a light alloy, twin camshaft, supercharged in-line, six-cylinder with a displacement of 3,228cc.When recording the history of a modern classic with just one owner, it is destined to be quite a brief summary! With a fabulous history of service, maintenance and MoT test history, the beauty of this DB7 was established by the first and only owner who chose a Cheviot Red livery with two-tone Charcoal and Smoke leather interior punctuated by Walnut veneers. Flawless good looks aside however, there is a strong 28-year ownership with care and consideration clearly emphasised by appearance and condition. This purebred classic is not only of exemplary design but of investment quality and stunning from any viewpoint, a true testament to Aston Martin traditions and the dedication of its one single-minded owner.

5.0 litre 'homologation special'Multiple magazine-featuredThe R107 and C107 were built to exacting engineering standards, unsurprisingly, and with a more than subtle air of sophistication. What marks these streamlined sports cars out from the rest is the comfortable rear seats, sublime power delivery from the larger engined models and of course, the legendary Stuttgart build-quality. These imposing pillarless coupés have now become rare and prices are rising.When Mercedes-Benz returned to Works rallying in the 1970s, they needed to homologate the 450 SLC's new five-litre V8 rally car and thus the 450 SLC 5.0 was launched, with just 1,636 built between September 1977 and March 1980. By Mercedes-Benz standards, the 5.0 litre 450 SLC was a 'homologation special' when introduced in 1979 to help the works team's rallying efforts. With enlarged 240bhp light-alloy V8 (used throughout 1980s in all big Mercedes) with a three-speed automatic transmission. This super rare and desirable early 450 SLC 5.0 is offered directly from a private Mercedes-Benz collection. The WRC car featured aluminium body panels, front and rear spoilers and was capable of over 140mph top speed and was crowned the first V8-engined car (and the first automatic) to win a World Rally Championship event in a career that was short but impressive.This genuine left hand drive example is finished in its original light silver metallic with contrasting green velour interior. A multiple magazine-featured fast-road classic with a Homologation heartbeat. One of the rarer cars from The Stuttgart Collection, the history file is a delight and this very rare, left hand drive, multiple magazine-featured, homologation special may be the last 'sleeper' of its kind from this era. Please see full write up here; https://www.classicandsportscar.com/features/mercedes-benz-450slc-50-worlds-least-likely-rally-carWe are informed that the body and underside are free of structural rust, the paintwork presents very well and the interior is delightful.
