Official UK press car and one of 53 right-hand drive examplesSuperbly presented in Grand Prix White with Guards Red Fuchs alloys LSD, 5-speed G50, shortened gear lever, Sport shock absorbers, top-tinted screen Official UK Porsche GB press car. Extensive history file. 89,700 milesFull-service history. Certificate of Authenticity. Original bill of sale. Both original keysWhen Porsche wanted to build a 9112.7 RS for the 1980's, it came up with the Carrera 3.2 Club Sport, a car which ~ like an RS has gone on to become a sought-after classic. In common with its RS predecessor, the key to the Club Sport is lightness. Without going crazy, Porsche shaved around 40kg off the standard car's 1210kg. This was done by omitting unnecessary 'luxuries' including electric windows, rear seats, rear wiper, radio, rear quarter panels, door pocket lids, central locking, engine-and luggage-compartment lights, passenger sun visor, underseal (although some UK cars retained some protection), some sound-deadening (that in the engine bay and roof lining remained), and even the coat hooks. There were manual heater controls (as fitted on earlier 911s) instead of an automatic thermostat system, whilst air-conditioning was deleted in markets where that was standard.In addition, the car was fitted with a lighter starter motor, simplified (and therefore lighter) wiring loom, and an alloy spare wheel. Despite the reduced specification, the Club Sport's interior was far from austere, with full carpeting (including over the rear seat area) and comfortable pinstripe fabric seats, although some examples had leather seats. Mechanically, the car retained the standard 3.2 engine, albeit blueprinted, fitted with lighter hollow inlet valves, and located on stiffer mounts. A revised engine management system increased the rev limit from 6520rpm to 6840rpm but, bizarrely, Porsche didn't claim any increase in power over the standard engine's 231bhp. The power was fed through a G50 gearbox with a shorter throw and taller fourth and fifth gears, and a limited-slip differential. Suspension, meanwhile, was uprated with nothing more than Bilstein gas dampers all round. The majority of Club Sport's were finished in Grand Prix White with the option of large 'Carrera CS' side decals in Guards Red. The Fuchs alloy wheels usually had matching red centres, but could also be specified in black or white. Only 340 Club Sports were built, with 53 right-hand-drive examples coming to the UK, where road testers received it with open arms; Motor claimed it to be the fastest 911 it had driven, and good value at some £3,000 cheaper than the standard car.The example we have here is finished in Grand Prix White and Black leatherette with pinstripe black seats. As a factory Club Sport, it comes with an LSD, 5-speed G50 gearbox, shortened gear lever, forged alloy wheels, 'Sport' shock absorbers, top tinted windscreen, and Clubsport Equipment. It also retains its original Blaupunkt radio cassette.This stunning 3.2 Club Sport (number 22 out of the 53 RHD UK cars delivered) was supplied through JCT600 in Bradford to Porsche themselves and subsequently became the official Press Car as confirmed by the history file. This is a superb read and even includes an original press release (addressed to Mr Tony Dron no less!). The car has been sold throughout the years by both Porsche themselves and well respected Porsche specialists. The service history mirrors this and dates all the way back to the initial 'Running-in' service, with invoices to verify from the current day back to 1992. Currently owned and loved by Silverstone Auctions M-D, Nick Whale, under his ownership the Club Sport has been maintained by respected Porsche Specialists, Tuthill Porsche, and was last serviced in 2019, with invoices on file. The original invoice from Porsche GB to the first private owner is also included. Supplied with all the history detailed above, the Porsche CoA, the stamped original service booklet and 2 original keys. The 3.2 Club Sport is a very rare machine, a desirable 80s Porsche for the serious collector and tipped to seriously increase in value. It is a true drivers car ~ and one with such an interesting history is surely the one to own.You can now book a one to one appointment (up to one hour) to view this lot at our central location between 16th and 30th July.

Elegant 1950s open-top, two-seat Tourer.One of only 31. Thought to be the 8th from last TB Tourer to be manufactured2993cc, OHV, seven-bearing, straight-six. Manual gearbox Finished in Porcelain White with a white-piped red hide interiorOriginal dashboard in red with a cream Bakelite wheel and cream instrument facesThe cutaway doors are rear-hinged and the windscreen can be folded flat Only three registered keepers with the DVLAThis car has formed part of a large collection with little or no use. An element of recommissioning is to be expected to return it to the road once againThe TA21 was Alvis' last 'clean sheet' car design to reach production. The newcomer sought to move the marque back into a more expensive area of the market than its predecessor, the immediate post-war TA14, but remained faithful to many of the company's tried and tested engineering practices. Consequently, it retained independent front suspension on a massive cross member mounted to a rigid box-section chassis frame with leaf-sprung rear suspension, though there were telescopic dampers all round and hydraulic brakes, twin-leading shoe at the front, made a welcome appearance. To keep the 2993cc OHV seven-bearing, straight-six engine silent, light springs held the pushrods in permanent contact with the rockers. In the same way that Alvis had offered an open two-seater version of the TA14, it commissioned AP Metalcraft of Coventry to perform the same conversion on the TA21 chassis, creating the TB21, though it dropped the controversial grille used on the TB14 in favour of the traditional Alvis frontage. In keeping with its sporting pretensions, the cutaway doors were rear-hinged and the windscreen could be folded flat. As the car was lighter than the TA21 the final drive ratio was raised from 4.09:1 to 3.77:1, helping to increase the top speed to 95mph and at the same time improving economy. But its high price of £1,598 kept the car exclusive and only 31 were built between 1951 and 1953.This particular manual gearbox TB21 Tourer left the factory towards the end of production and is thought to be the eighth from last to be manufactured. Finished in, we believe, Porcelain White with a red hide interior and with only three former keepers registered with the DVLA, this particular TB provides interested parties with an opportunity to acquire an elegant 50s Sports Tourer, rarely available on the open market.In recent years the Alvis has formed part of a large collection and as such has received little or no use and an element of recommissioning is to be expected to return it to the road once again.

A superbly presented, low ownership Mk2 with just 9,500 milesA late production face-lift Mk2 specified for driving purity with 2WD and a manual gearboxJust 9,500 miles from new and in amazing condition wholly commensurate with the low mileage and diligent ownership by just two previous keepers3.6-litre dry-sumped, water-cooled flat-6 with 320PS. 0-62mph in 4.9 seconds and a top speed of 178 mphTastefully finished in Polar Silver and optioned with a factory-fitted Aero Kit and Sports exhaustFull service history - most recent major service just over 1,000 miles agoSupplied with a complete book-pack and spare keysProduced from 1997 to 2004, the 996 received the first all-new platform in the 911's 34-year existence, but was controversial at the time of its launch mainly because it was the first 911 to switch from air to water-cooling. In 1998, Car and Driver put the Carrera 2 up against the Ferrari 355 and the Porsche came out on top. Furthermore, it was prized as the EVO Magazine car of the year with "its ability to be approachable and accessible like a sports car, but still with the ability to inspire awe like a supercar... on the road its purity of purpose, poise, finesse and honed athleticism allowed it to dominate a test that included the Ferrari F355 and Elise 135".The base model, the Carrera 2, is now rightly regarded as the purest, most driver-focused model in the range, being rear-wheel drive, with three pedals, and has a beautiful naturally aspirated flat-six. It's the lightest water-cooled 911 you can buy, the same-generation GT3 included. It's also 80kg lighter than the air-cooled 993 predecessor, which is 50% wobblier. And you still get the rear +2 seats, as a 996 is 18.5cm longer than the previous 993.The car presented here is C16 (UK-supplied), last-year-of-production Mk2 (face-lifted) model, with the staggeringly low mileage of just 9,500. It really must be seen to be fully appreciated, this cossetted example really is in superb original condition and still retains that distinctive 'new car smell'. It was delivered new on the 3rd of January 2004 via Porsche Centre Aberdeen and returned a further three times for a service at 3,175 miles, 5,014 miles, and 6,795 miles, all with its first owner who kept it until 2017. Our vendor acquired the car later in 2017, through Porsche specialist Steve Bull. He, in turn, kept this lovely Porsche in the manner to which it had become accustomed and it has always been garaged and was serviced (including a belt change) at Cotswold Porsche Specialists at 8,382 miles. With a complete book-pack, including its original service booklet, an as-new full key set and invoices for maintenance, this is simply the nicest 996 C2 we have ever offered for sale and it must be one of the best available anywhere currently.You can now book a one to one appointment (up to one hour) to view this lot at our central location between 16th and 30th July.

The 'SA-30 Collection' - 30 exceptional vehicles chosen to celebrate 30 years of the Silverstone Classic and all excitingly offered at No ReserveA wonderfully cherished example with just 72,915 miles from newOnly four previous owners, one owner from 1972 until 2001Remarkably original. Wonderful, gently-patinated interiorAttractively finished in Admiralty Blue with a Silver Birch Roof and Rostyle wheelsConsidering the design is over 50 years old, these cars still turn headsIn 1965, Rover's Managing Director, William Martin-Hurst, secured the tooling and production rights to the 3528cc all-alloy OHV V8 '215' engine from Buick and, after a period of development, it was ready for use in Rover's model range. Although a marriage of expediency, the union between Rover's stately P5 and the ex-Buick V8 resulted in an unexpectedly fine motorcar. The new aluminium V8 was significantly lighter and considerably more powerful than its predecessor, delivering 160bhp and a massive leap in torque to 210 lbs/ft. at 2600rpm, vastly improving pace, comfort, balance, handling, economy and reliability.Launched in 1967, the Rover P5B (or P5 Buick if you prefer) was conceived to stave off increasingly refined competition from the likes of Jaguar and Mercedes-Benz. Available in Saloon and Coupe guises, both of which employed four doors, the big Rover was equipped with independent torsion-bar front suspension, a leaf-sprung 'live' rear axle and disc /drum brakes. Fitted with three-speed automatic transmission and power-assisted steering as standard, it proved a relaxing drive although capable of a comfortable 115mph. The exterior was mostly unchanged, apart from bold '3.5 Litre' badging, a pair of fog lights which were added below the headlights, creating a striking four-light array and the fitting of chrome Rostyle wheels with black painted inserts. The svelte Coupe had a slightly lower roof-line, slimmer chromed window surrounds, twin-armchair rear seats and additional dash instruments, and is the most collectable variant today.Well-appointed in the best Rover tradition, the P5B's 'Gentlemen's Club' interior made it a firm favourite with businessmen, politicians (Harold Wilson's car was reputed to have a pipe rack in the back) and even HM The Queen who apparently still owns her Arden Green Saloon. Production lasted until 1973 by which time 9,099 Coupés and 11,501 Saloons had been built.HPX 301H was first registered on 01/06/1970 and was finished in Admiralty Blue with a Silver Birch Roof and a Cream leather interior. It may have remained with the dealer for a period of time as its first registered owner was Trevor Tiffin Nash who acquired this 3.5-Litre Coupe on 12/04/1972 from Boorers Garage in Broadwater with the original Bill of Sale for £1,750 in the owner's file. Boorers were, in fact, the Rover agents and, somewhat poignantly, within the file is a small faded advert cut from the Sussex Argus and dated 07/04/1972 for this car (£1,895) clipped to a copy of the same paper's obituary of Mr Tiffin on 7/01/2008. He had, in fact, sold the car to Charles Regan on 9/02/2001 who also became a long-term owner, passing it on to Owen Lavington on 13/09/2017.The history file is huge with well over 100 invoices for maintenance, routine repairs etc. with only two larger invoices obvious, one for a gearbox rebuild in May 1981 and one for new sills and inner and outer arches dated January 2008. The file also contains lots of MOTs, SORN notifications from 2004 to 2014 and V5s etc. There is a plastic wallet containing the original Owner's Operating Manual, Owner's Instruction Manual and the stamped service record which starts at 1,579 miles on 29/06/70 and finishes on the last page at 40,700 miles on 8/05/83.It appears that HPX has never been restored and is all the better for it. The Admiralty Blue paintwork still shines, the brightwork is excellent and the Rostyle wheels look crisp. The Rover's cream interior certainly feels original with that cosy lived-in feel often present in a much-loved family car, and the car simply 'stands well'.The mileage of 72,915 appears to be corroborated by the car's MOT and Service history and we understand that it runs and drives superbly. The P5B is a go-anywhere, welcome-anywhere kind of 'Classic' and, unlike an old MG, you don't have to don seven layers of clothing to go to an event. In period, these big Coupes were head-turners and were perceived to belong to comfortably off owners who appreciated quality and had a certain sense of style, and basically, nothing has changed. This lovely Rover is only available as our inveterate collector vendor has found one with even lower mileage.You can now book a one to one appointment (up to one hour) to view this lot at our central location between 16th and 30th July.

The 'SA-30 Collection' - 30 exceptional vehicles chosen to celebrate 30 years of the Silverstone Classic and all excitingly offered at No ReserveOne of only 230 UK right-hand drive QVs produced and just 41,046 miles from newPresented in gleaming Rosso Corsa with magnolia leather and Bordeaux carpetsThe car's classic looks are complemented by a deep front spoiler and Speedline wheelsA very original example that has been cherished by the same family since 1987, acquired at circa 23,217 miles£16,000 spent on substantial service works in February 2019 by Kent High Performance at 40,941 milesFabulous documented history. Original service wallet, book pack, tool kit, jack kit and standard exhaustEnticingly offered at No reserve - one for the true Ferrari enthusiast to use and enjoyOctober 1975, saw the debut at the Paris Motor Show of the most successful shape ever to wear the Cavallino Rampante emblem, the Ferrari 308, and during its comparatively long production run from 1975-89, the model was consistently popular and kept the factory busy. This new car was constructed on a traditional steel tube chassis, but its beautiful body was initially manufactured in GRP before, after two years, Scaglietti started making GTBs in steel. The 3-litre, four-cam V8 was more or less unchanged until March 1981 when Bosch fuel injection was added in place of the 4 double-choke Webers, reducing the engine's power output significantly, although the final drive was altered on these cars to give similar acceleration to a carburettor car. Two years later, the 4-valve per cylinder Quattrovalvole or 'QV' model pushed output back up to 240 hp restoring the status quo. European-spec cars boasted higher horsepower than cars built for the American market and were somewhat lighter. Only 3,042 Spider Quattrovalvoles were produced, with just 230 RHD examples supplied to the UK and they are considered by many to be the most desirable of all the 308 variations as they are the fastest and most subtly styled with a deep front valance, racing mirrors, and short lightweight bumpers.This lovely GTS (Spider) is classically finished in Rosso Corsa with Magnolia leather and Bordeaux carpets. The paintwork and coachwork are exactly as you might hope to find and the timeless looks of this 45-year-old design are complemented by the deep front valance and optional roof-mounted aerofoil. It has been part of one family since 1987 until joining our vendor's collection last year and is accompanied by a great history file. The substantially documented current mileage is 41,046 and within the file is an invoice from highly regarded marque experts Kent High Performance, dated February 2019, for a full cambelt and substantial service to include rebuilt Koni shocks, rebuilt heater, alloy wheel refinish with new tyres and more at 40,941 miles with less than 110 miles travelled since.Presented with the car is its original wallet containing the service books and manuals documenting the cars excellent service history and a folder containing a number of bills/invoices detailing attention over the years. The tool kit and jack appear original and the standard factory exhaust looks quite at home.In superb condition for its age and mileage, this rare right-hand drive, QV Spider has patently been well looked after and is a fantastic example of the ultimate evolution of the 308. Enticingly offered at No Reserve, it's one for the true Ferrari enthusiast to use and enjoy.You can now book a one to one appointment (up to one hour) to view this lot at our central location between 16th and 30th July.

The 'SA-30 Collection' - 30 exceptional vehicles chosen to celebrate 30 years of the Silverstone Classic and all excitingly offered at No ReserveDelivered new to Porsche Slovenia in July 2009 finished in double blackA 3.8-litre, manual gearbox, 429bhp, Generation II factory Club SportCentre-lock wheels, red callipers, bespoke rear wing, lightweight seats, harnesses, fire extinguisher and a roll cageTwo further owners in Germany before being acquired by our vendor to join his collectionComprehensive service and MOT at Paragon Porsche in June 2020This rare car has covered just 9,323 miles (15,005km) from new and is unquestionably among the best in existenceThis was the final evolution of Porsche's acclaimed 997 GT3 series, reflecting the changes made for the second generation of the 997 911. Porsche's GT series cars are produced in limited numbers by their Motorsport Division, alongside the racecars on which the GT3 is based, and as such the GT3 had been absent from Porsche's price list since the tail end of 2007.Visually the new generation GT3 mirrors a number of changes introduced with the 2nd generation 997 road car, namely the introduction of daylight running lights and changes to the interior, however, the GT3 does not follow the regular series 911's introduction of direct fuel injection nor the option of Porsche's PDK gearbox. Porsche cite the 20kg saving, and customer preference for mechanical interaction, as the logic for sticking with a conventional six-speed manual transmission.The Gen II car was powered by an enlarged version of the motorsport-derived, flat-six, now displacing 3.8-litres instead of 3.6, increasing power by 20bhp to 429bhp. Torque is also bolstered, particularly through the mid-range, whilst economy and emissions also benefitted and significant aerodynamic tweaks generated substantial extra downforce neatly offset by the larger engine's increased torque. Other detailed changes included lighter wheels, with a single centre bolt, shaving 2.5kg from the unsprung mass, and larger yet lighter front discs brakes.Delivered new to Porsche Slovenia in July 2009, this 911 would have been among the earliest 997-series cars to be built to the improved Generation II specification. It is estimated that in 2009, the first year of these '997.2' models, only 766 Porsche 911 GT3s were built.The car you see here is one of them and, rarer still, it was specified new as a factory Clubsport example - a designation that has become recognised worldwide as adorning only the very best driver's cars. Flawlessly finished in the desirable double-black colour scheme, this GT3 Clubsport manages to be exciting and yet almost subtle, with only the centre lock wheels, red callipers and rear wing alluding to its performance capabilities.On the inside, the lightweight seats, harnesses, fire extinguisher and roll cage are the more obvious Clubsport additions. However, that's not to say that this GT3 has been compromised for road use; the seats are in fact remarkably comfortable and the harnesses and fire extinguisher remain unfitted, boxed and stored in the boot. Given this and the GT3's stunning condition, we wouldn't be surprised if it has never even seen a racetrack.At 8 months old the GT3 Clubsport migrated back home to Germany, where it was registered to a specialist engineering company north of Frankfurt. A year later the Porsche was sold to a packaging firm, before being transferred into the Managing Director's name in May 2013. At this point, the car had covered 11,368km and an inspection two years later show that the mileage had only increased to 14,436km.The third owner bought the Porsche in 2017 to add to his significant private collection and it was from there that our vendor was able to acquire it.The stamped service records indicate that the car benefitted from a Porsche service on 13-09-2011 at 8,074km, 08-09-2014 at 13,420km and most recently was treated to a comprehensive service and a fresh MOT at Paragon Porsche here in the UK on 15/06/2020 at 14,992km. Today the 911 has still only covered 9,323 miles (15,005km) from new and is unquestionably among the best in existence.With a proper manual gearbox, 45-years of continuous 911 development and a 3.8-litre flat-six, it's little wonder that these GT3s are a favourite among motoring journalists and have become a must-have road car for racing drivers and collectors alike.You can now book a one to one appointment (up to one hour) to view this lot at our central location between 16th and 30th July.

A right-hand-drive SVR with just 2,720 miles from newThe SVR is a lighter, faster and sharper version of Jaguar's F-Type R All-Wheel Drive5-litre supercharged V8 producing 567bhp and 516lb.ft. 0-60 in 3.5 seconds and 200mphEight-speed automatic transmission by Special Vehicle Operations and split-bias 4-wheel driveUnique SVR seats with Lozenge Quilt pattern, suede cloth-covered instrument binnacle and centre console, SVR steering wheel and anodized aluminium paddlesTitanium and Inconel exhaust system offers a fabulous 'harder-edged' soundIn Corris Grey Metallic and presents as you would expect for what is essentially a car still being run in!This is a VAT qualifying car so 20% needs to be added to the Hammer PriceIn the same month that the F-Pace SUV became the fastest-selling Jaguar of all time, the F-Type arrived in 'Supercar 'territory. Introduced at the Geneva Motor Show in March 2016, the F-Type SVR was a lighter, faster and sharper version of Jaguar's F-Type 'R' All-Wheel Drive. It was powered by the same 5-litre supercharged V8 but now produced 567bhp at 6,500 rpm and a remarkable 516lb.ft of torque at 3,500rpm, with all this power transferred to the road through a Special Vehicle Operations - developed, eight-speed automatic transmission and split-bias 4-wheel drive.The SVR was now a seriously quick motor car with 0-62mph in a tad less than 3.5 seconds and a genuine 200 mph available, however, the external differences from the F-Type R were stylish and subtle with a new aerodynamics package that included a new front bumper, splitter, flat undercarriage, rear venturi and an active rear wing that rises at 70mph. What wasn't quite so subtle was the new Titanium and Inconel quad-pipe exhaust system which was a full 16kg lighter but featured valves that open at 2,500rpm generating a distinctive metallic bark that will rattle windows and upset the neighbours. You don't have to use full throttle and it is possible to progress in a civilised manner, but the option is there!However, more impressive than the increased power output is the way the SVR conducts itself. We quote from a recent Road Test in Classic Car Magazine;"Yet more impressive than the raw speed is the way it's delivered. The smaller-engined, rear-drive F-types regularly trouble their electronic stability systems, but in four-wheel-drive SVR form traction is outrageous. Off the line the Jag just grips and goes, and the same applies when putting the power down early out of a corner: it's composed, controlled and deeply impressive.The beautifully weighted steering filters out any semblance of kickback, yet retains far more feedback than most modern systems, with delicious accuracy. Switch to 'Dynamic' mode and the car gets stiffer, harder and more focused, the smooth auto 'box serving up immediate, aggressive changes when commanded by the steering wheel-mounted paddles.Yet although there's grip and body control enough to ensure that your passenger will need the large grab handle, it's delivered without the back-breaking ride you might expect, particularly when you switch to 'Normal' - but then Jaguar always was a master of chassis that blended balance and suppleness."Inside the cockpit is truly state of the art and indications that you are in the SVR include very handsome quilted leather covering seats and door panels. The stitched shapes take the form of the 'Jaguar Heritage' lozenge, a subtle nod to the racing DNA of the brand and a lovely touch.
