A GREAT BRITISH ICON AN ASTON MARTIN DB6 VANTAGE VOLANTE CHASSIS NO: DBVC/3683/R ENGINE NO: 400/3576/VC REGISTRATION: TMP 548F, RIGHT-HAND DRIVE WITH MANUAL TRANSMISSION Purchased by Mrs Sandra Bernstein, wife of Sidney Bernstein (later Lord Bernstein), the founder of Granada Television, on 18th May 1968 from Odeon Motors and registered TMP 548F, the same number plate it wears today. Mrs Bernstein was familiar with Astons having previously owned a DB5 Convertible. This Volante was to prove a firm favourite and she owned and cherished it for the rest of her life before passing the car to her son. Particulars of non-standard equipment are listed on the build sheet as follows: Volante ZF Vantage Convertible Spec. Vantage Engine Power assisted steering 3.73:1 Limited Slip Differential Chrome Road Wheels Power Operated Aerial Three Ear Hub Caps Two Lap % Diagonal Safety Belts (Front Seats) Seven Pints Anti-Freeze The car was delivered in Pacific blue with Natural hide (Connolly VM846) and fitted with a manual gear box. Today the car presents as it left the factory with the exception of a replacement Mohair hood in dark blue. Mileage from new is a mere 38,833. The car has a valid MOT certificate until September 2017. Only 29 DB6 Vantage Volantes were produced and as such they are highly prized by collectors. What makes this car so special is its single family ownership and its remarkable originality. The interior is wonderfully patinated, the engine bay is original and the engine remains leaded. As one would expect of a car of this age attention has been given to the sills, which were replaced in 2010. The history file that accompanies the car contains correspondence with Ian Mason, Ivon Dutton, Wren Classics and Goldsmith and Young. Today collectors are finding it increasingly difficult to acquire cars that remain original and unrestored from the day they left the factory. This is one such car and it represents a unique opportunity to purchase one of the rarest post-war Aston Martins. It is, in our view, the ultimate DB6 Vantage Volante.PLEASE NOTE THIS LOT IS NOT AVAILABLE FOR ONLINE BIDDING

1984 Audi Quattro - The subject of twenty-seven articles in Audi Driver magazine whilst owned by Paul Harris - Engine overhauled by John Reade complete with gas-flowed cylinder head, AET hybrid turbocharger and Karl Schmidt pistons - 104,700 recorded miles (accompanying service book carries stamps up to 90,000 miles) - Fettled by acknowledged specialists including Dialynx and so able to boast Koni adjustable dampers, Quattro MB-series twin-pot front brake callipers, Cargraphic stainless steel performance exhaust system and recent Toyo Proxes T1-R tyres Brainchild of Audi chassis engineer Jorg Bensinger and developed by a team of just twelve including Walther Treser, the 'Ur' (or original) Quattro was launched on March 4th 1980. Capable of humbling many a contemporaneous supercar thanks to its ingenious permanent four-wheel drive system and powerful turbocharged five-cylinder 2144cc engine, the newcomer was handbuilt by a dedicated team in Hall N2 at Audi's Ingolstadt factory. Progressively developed until production ceased in March 1991, most of the 11,452 cars completed were to left-hand drive specification. Supplied new to the Supertyres Motorist Centre Ltd of Welwyn Garden City, this particular example boasts service stamps up to 90,624 miles and a current odometer reading of 104,700. Professionally repainted in Pearlescent White, the Quattro also had its original engine extensively refurbished and lightly breathed upon by John Reade (an ex-Audi engineer who supplied powerplants for the David Sutton rally team) who gas flowed the cylinder head, installed Karl Schmidt pistons and an AET hybrid turbocharger prior to entering Paul Harris's ownership in 2004. The editor and publisher of Audi Driver magazine, Mr Harris dedicated no fewer than twenty-seven articles to 'B73 VTM' and its ongoing improvement. As well as keeping a personal diary of maintenance and fuel consumption, he entrusted the rally-bred Coupe to specialists such as Dialynx Performance Ltd so that it could be upgraded with a Cargraphic stainless steel exhaust system, Koni adjustable dampers, Quattro MB-series twin-pot front brake callipers and Toyo Proxes T1-R tyres. A familiar sight on Guild of Motoring Writers' events, the Audi was sold by Mrs Harris following her husband's death in 2015. Sparingly used as part of a private collection since then, 'B73 VTM' is offered for sale with a V5C Registration Document, fresh MOT certificate, original Service Schedule booklet, workshop manual, sundry invoices / receipts and the relevant issues of Audi Driver magazine.

1978 Ferrari 308 GTS - Desirable RHD UK car, recent comprehensive restoration by GTB Restorations Ltd - Silver with Blue interior, c.55,400 miles, documented history including original sales invoice - First owner: Tony Banks of Genesis, original registration number Considered by many to be one of the most beautiful designs of the 1970s/80s, the Ferrari 308 GTB was launched in 1975. Although the 1973 introduced 2+2 Dino 308 GT4 had nominally taken over the mantle of its namesake, the illustrious Dino 246 GT, the 308 GTB was in many ways the true successor to this classic design. Styled by Pinninfarina (the Dino 308 was Bertone's one and only Ferrari design) the 308 GTB was built by Scaglietti on the chassis and suspension of the 246 with a brand new 2926cc dry-sump V8 engine and most notably featured distinctive sculptured air intakes on the body sides ahead of the mid-mounted engine. Initially the cars were built with some fibreglass body panels (another first for a Ferrari) but from May 1977 all-steel construction was used. Long awaited, the open-topped GTS Spyder version arrived in March 1978 with a detachable centre roof section much in the manner of a targa rather than a full convertible. It did however only enhance the 308's delectable lines and the model then evolved through a fuel-injected version into the 3.2 litre 328 GTB/GTS until its replacement in 1988 by the less widely admired 348. By this time the 308/328 had become Ferrari's best-selling model to date, these sales including an Italian-market only 208 GTB/GTS 2-litre produced to circumvent Italian taxation laws. We are delighted to offer this desirable early production RHD carburettor example which has been the subject of a recent comprehensive restoration by renowned specialists GTB Restorations Ltd of Elmswell, Suffolk. A photographic feature on their website records their progress and gives testimony to the care and attention lavished on the car. A detailed summary of works carried out by them is also contained in the accompanying history file together with a photographic record comprising numerous images on disk. Works carried out included thorough restoration of the bodywork followed by a high quality and expensive bare metal respray to a 'piano finish' in the original shade of silver, attention to the blue interior including recovering of the seats, refurbishment of the wheels using the correct base coat and an engine overhaul which included the fitment of solid race valves. The vendor, who commissioned the works, has striven to keep the car as original as possible even down to sourcing a correct Carello headlamp replacement and correct vinyl to rejuvenate the targa roof section. New tyres were fitted all round including the spare and the original Ferrari labelled windscreen was retained. The all-important cambelts were replaced at the same time as the other mechanical work and the car has only covered a minimal mileage since completion. The odometer currently registers some 55,400 miles only. Understood to have been owned new by musician Tony Banks, of Genesis fame, FBC 564T has been in the current ownership since 2011 and is now only being offered for sale to help fund the purchase of another Ferrari. Offered with a detailed history file of invoices for past works and the recent restoration, original sales invoice, assorted expired MoT certificates, owner's manual, replacement service book, Swansea V5C document and current MoT, the car will also be serviced (again!) and checked over by GTB Restorations prior to being offered for sale. The original steering wheel, professionally re-leathered, will also be fitted. Whilst there would appear to be a plethora of tired LHD examples currently being offered on the market, a cherished and restored righthand drive carburettor model 308 GTS is much harder to find and we believe this fine example, properly looked after, should provide years of trouble-free enjoyment for the next owner.

1966 Aston Martin DB6 Vantage - Desirable Vantage in the current ownership for 30 years, stored since c.1991, engine free - Shell Grey with Dark Blue hide and blue carpet, original engine & registration number - Nice history file back to the 1970s including correspondence with original owner Introduced at the 1965 Motor Show, the Aston Martin DB6 was notable as the first model to be engineered following a factory move from Feltham to Newport Pagnell. Although, it shared the same visage as the outgoing DB5, the newcomer enjoyed notably better high-speed stability and interior space thanks to the provision of a Kamm tail and four-inch longer wheelbase respectively. Grafted over a sheet steel platform chassis, the four-seater's hand-finished aluminium panels helped contribute to a 1,466kg kerb weight. Praised by the contemporary press for its poise and handling, the DB6 employed all-round coil-sprung suspension, four-wheel disc brakes and rack-and-pinion steering. Powered by a reworked version of the fabulous Tadek Merak designed 3995cc DOHC straight-six engine featuring a trio of Weber carburettors, the desirable Vantage variant was quoted as developing 325bhp and 288lbft of torque. Fitted with a five-speed ZF manual gearbox as standard, it was reputedly capable of around 150mph and 0-60mph in 6.3 seconds. A contemporary road test by the legendary John Bolster achieved 6.1 seconds for the 0-60mph sprint and a maximum speed of 152mph. Some 1,750 DB6s were manufactured by the time the model was fully superseded by the DBS in February 1971, making it the most successful member of the DB4/DB5/DB6 lineage. A copy of the original guarantee in the history file issued on 10 March 1966 records that EBR 6D was supplied via Mill Garages Ltd of Sunderland and finished in Shell Grey with Dark Blue hide. Options recorded include: 3.73:1 LSD, heated rear screen, 3 ear hubcaps, additional carpeting and thinner rimmed steering wheel. At some point, a rare headrest has also been added to the passenger seat. The original owner recorded on the RF60 logbook was a Mr Kenneth Priest, a textile manufacturer, living near Huddersfield. A letter on file from him dated 1977 records that he kept the car for five years, covering 12,500 miles, and that servicing was always carried out at Newport Pagnell during his tenure. A further letter on file from the 2nd owner, a Dr Weightman, who subsequently purchased it from Mill Garages, records elicit runs on the M1 at over 130mph and how Mr Priest had the car chauffeur driven and never allowed it out in the Winter. In 1976 it was purchased for £1895 by a Mr Barnet-Lamb of Orpington from Performance Cars Ltd who, as evidenced by the invoice on file, took his year old MGB in part exchange. During his ownership, the engine was overhauled and an invoice dated 24 March 1977 is on file. Acquired by the vendor through Peter Bennett of Tarporley, Cheshire, in 1987 when displaying some 91,000 miles on its odometer, it then covered less than 3,000 miles before being put into dry storage amongst other cars in his collection around 1991. Complete with original engine and retaining its original registration number, EBR 6D has remained in storage ever since. A recent visual inspection suggests it to have survived extremely well with a nicely patinated interior. The engine, though not started for many years, is also said to turn freely. The bodywork certainly appears to be essentially solid and whilst there is no visible rust to the exterior, there are some minor areas of corrosion beneath the paintwork and some starring is evident in places along the front wings. The mileage of 93,398, though not warranted, is in keeping with the information contained in the history file and is therefore believed to be genuine. In addition to the correspondence from previous owners mentioned above, the history file also contains an instruction book, RF60 logbook, old MoTs dating from 1976 to 1991, assorted invoices (including Aston Service Dorset and Four Ashes Garage Ltd) and copy guarantee sheet. A tool roll and Swansea V5 document also accompany the car. A Vantage specification DB6 coming from long term ownership, in our opinion, EBR 6D represents an extremely exciting opportunity for collectors.

1964 Austin-Healey 3000 MKIII - Imported from America into New Zealand and comprehensively restored there by a friend of the vendor during 2011 to 2015 and converted to RHD - Imported to England by the vendor and just 115 miles are reported to have been covered since the photographically documented restoration. - Superbly presented underneath as well as on top, UK registered, over-drive equipped, and ready to be enjoyed A significant step in terms of 'Big Healey' evolution and foundation block for one of the 1960s' most charismatic rally cars, the 3000 MKI was introduced in March 1959. Powered by an enlarged 2912cc version of BMC's C-Series straight-six engine that developed some 124bhp and 167lbft of torque, it could be had in two-seater (BN7) or 2+2 seater (BT7) configurations. Progressively improved, the 3000 metamorphosed through MKII and MKIIa guises before the arrival of the ultimate MKIII BJ8 in October 1963. Boasting a centre console, proper convertible hood, wood veneer dashboard, redesigned exhaust system and wind-up windows, the 2+2 seater BJ8 proved a comfortable and fast grand tourer. With engine output boosted to 148bhp and 165lbft of torque thanks to a new camshaft and better valve springs etc, its reputed 124mph top speed was accessed via a four-speed manual gearbox. Last of the line, the Phase Two variant benefited from redesigned rear suspension, strengthened splined hubs and larger diameter front disc brakes. This example is believed to have been sold new in America and was imported into New Zealand at some point in its more recent life. A friend of the vendor restored the car for his own enjoyment and in doing so, transferred the steering wheel from the left side of the car to the right. Our vendor observed the rejuvenation of the car by his experienced friend and upon the completion of the work, he persuaded his friend to sell the car to him in February 2016. Our vendor is English but had resided in New Zealand for a few years, and when he moved back to England he brought the Healey with him and gained UK road-registration with the DVLA in October 2016. Described by the vendor as having an "excellent" engine and over-drive equipped transmission, body and paintwork, and black leather interior, the underside of the car is beautifully finished in body colour.

1956 AC Aceca-Bristol PLEASE NOTE: This vehicle has an electric fuel pump.- The third Aceca Bristol built and potentially Mille Miglia eligible - 'Matching' chassis and engine numbers plus overdrive - Subject to some £10,000 worth of work during the current ownership - Previously fettled by the likes of Spencer Lane Jones and TT Workshops The Aceca was the Coupe version of AC's much-vaunted Ace Roadster and sold between 1954 and 1963. It had equivalent engine options and by the end of production 151 AC-engined Acecas, 169 Aceca-Bristols and eight Ford Zephyr-powered versions had been manufactured. Chassis BE573 has the distinction of being the third Bristol-engined example made, and the sister car to the 1957 Mille Miglia competitor BE572 and the Ecurie des Trois Chevrons racer BEX574. It is understood to have been dispatched to dealer Johnson & Brown of West Bromley on September 11, 1956, who supplied it new to a J Mansfield of West Horsley. Its keeper in the early-mid 1960s was Richard Harding of Hereford before it was sold to his friend Roger Searle a few years later, while the accompanying continuation logbook confirms it was registered to Swanmore Garage of Bournemouth by March 1969. A fine matching numbers example, `XKR 7' retains its original 100D engine but these days benefits from an alternator, Kenlowe electric fan, dual circuit brakes, collapsible steering column, overdrive, Moto-Lita steering wheel and Willans harnesses. Restored in 2004, it is finished in Silver and trimmed in Grey hide. In recent times this lovely AC has benefited from a rear suspension overhaul and the replacement of the radiator, wheels and tyres. Its maintenance has been handled by the likes of, Spencer Lane Jones, TT Workshops and IT Racing, with whom the vendor has invested some £10,000 since buying the Aceca in 2013. He is now offering the car complete with a collection of old MOTs and invoices, a spare set of wheels and tyres, and photographs of the restoration. He presently classes the bodywork, interior trim, Bristol engine and four speed manual gearbox as `excellent', and the paintwork as `very good'. Motorsport enthusiasts should note that BE573 is potentially eligible for the Mille Miglia retrospective. PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl. VAT (@ 20%)
Lot 17
1961 Daimler SP250 Dart - The subject of much recent cosmetic and mechanical restoration work - Desirable 'B-specification' variant that is almost as smart underneath as it is on top - Hood, tonneau cover and 'no advisories' MOT valid until May 2018 Launched at the 1959 New York Motor Show, Daimler's Dart sportscar was hurriedly rechristened the SP250 following threats of legal action from Chrysler's Dodge division which already used the moniker. The striking-looking newcomer was clothed in a tough fibreglass body and built around a traditional cruciform-braced ladder-frame chassis. By 1960, Daimler was in Jaguar's hands and the so-called B-specification variant featured a much stiffer frame, equipped with additional outriggers and a strengthening hoop between the B-posts. The jewel in the car's crown was its engine, a silky smooth 2.5-litre V8 unit designed by Edward Turner. Suspension was independent with wishbones and coil springs at the front and a live axle hung on leaf springs at the rear. Braking was by hydraulically-operated discs all-round. Perhaps unsurprisingly given that Motor magazine found one capable of 123.7mph, the Metropolitan Police employed a fleet as high-speed pursuit cars! Production of what was arguably the Coventry marque's quirkiest ever model ceased in 1964 after a mere 2,645 had been made. Finished in Gunmetal Grey metallic with Light Grey leather upholstery, this particular B-specification example is described by the vendor as being in 'excellent' condition with regard to its engine, four-speed manual gearbox, electrical equipment, bodywork, paintwork and interior trim. Reputedly treated to much chassis restoration work by its previous keeper, 2016 saw the Daimler benefit from a thorough engine overhaul (new piston rings, inlet / exhaust valves and guides, unleaded fuel conversion), extensive gearbox refurbishment (fresh gears / bearings), full professional bodywork respray, replaced / renewed chromework and an interior retrim (new leather / padding, hood and carpets). Riding on chrome wire wheels and looking almost as sharp underneath as it does on top, this stunning Dart is offered for sale with V5C Registration Document, 'no advisories' MOT certificate valid until May 16th 2018 and assorted restoration photos. PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl. VAT (@ 20%)

1960 Alvis TD21 Drophead Coupe - 1 of just 192 Alvis TD21 Series I Drophead Coupes made - Supplied new to a member of the Maynard confectionary family - Treated to a full professional respray, rechromed bumpers and engine work since entering the current ownership in 2013 'A perfectly serviceable everyday car with extra "chic", extra performance, and high standards of comfort and safety, its appeal to a select but important clientele should be strong' (Motor magazine) Launched in late 1958, the Alvis TD21 was stylistically indebted to a special-order Hermann Graber Coupe variant of its TC21/100 predecessor. Suitably reinterpreted for production by Park Ward, the newcomer's decidedly elegant coachwork sat atop a rigid box-section chassis equipped with independent coil-and-wishbone front suspension and a leaf-sprung back axle. Powered by a 2993cc OHV straight-six engine allied to either four-speed manual or Borg Warner three-speed automatic transmission, the four-seater boasted a 100mph-plus top speed. Featuring a polished wood fascia, leather upholstery and pile carpets, the TD21 could be had in two-door Saloon or Drophead Coupe guises and was every bit as luxurious as its contemporaries. Superseded by the Series II in 1962, just 192 of the 784 Series I cars made were Drophead Coupes. First road registered as '707 AYP' by London County Council on October 6th 1960, this particular example - chassis 26392 - was supplied new to a member of the Maynard confectionary family. Acquired by R.E. Moon Esq. of Leigh-on-Sea some six years later, the Alvis subsequently belonged to the Stephenson family for more than two decades before entering the current (sixth) ownership during 2013. Treated to a full professional respray and re-chromed bumpers that same year, 2014 saw the original 'matching numbers' engine undergo recommissioning. Described by the vendor as being in 'very good' condition with regard to its engine, automatic gearbox, bodywork, paintwork and electrical equipment, he rates the interior trim as 'good / very good' and further informs us that the TD21 'drives well through all the gears'. This rare and imposing motorcar's extensive history file includes an instruction manual, Mr Moon's handwritten maintenance log and sundry Red Triangle invoices.

Lot 28
1958 Jaguar MK I 'Brian Lister Tribute' PLEASE NOTE: Since the catalogue went to press the vendor has informed us that his affinity for the Lister marque stems from the fact he owned the first factory-supplied Lister XJS and the prototype Lister 'Knobbly' Continuation car (BHL 146). Having amassed various spares for the latter he hit upon the idea of transforming 'WHP 17' into exactly the kind of 'sleeper' that Brian Lister might have created in period. As the seller succinctly puts it: 'With his passing, this is my tribute to an old friend!'- A 'wolf in sheep's clothing' powered by a John Pearson-built Jaguar D-Type 3.8-litre engine. - All synchro four-speed plus overdrive gearbox, uprated MK2 axles, LSD and power steering etc - Patinated red leather upholstery, 16-inch Halibrand peg-drive Lister wheels, alloy fuel tank etc - Engine formerly the property of John Coombs and fitted to his ex-Ecurie Belge D-Type, original 'WHP 17' registration number A member of the British Racing Drivers' Club with a keen appreciation for what the late Brian Lister achieved using Jaguar D-Type drivetrains in his fearsome 'Knobbly' cars, the seller commissioned Martin Greaves of Classic Performance Engineering to similarly upgrade this unsuspecting MKI in 2015. Built by marque expert John Pearson and previously employed to power the late John Coombs' ex-Ecurie National Belge Jaguar D-Type, the 3.8-litre engine which now nestles aboard 'WHP 17' is understood to have covered several hundred miles since Mr Pearson last refreshed it. Boasting a correct-type 'wide angle' cylinder head, six-branch big bore exhaust manifold, dry-sump lubrication and triple Weber carburettors etc, the potent straight-six is allied to Jaguar four-speed manual plus overdrive transmission (courtesy of an S-Type). As one might expect of an engineer who trained alongside John Pearson and has restored some of the world's most significant sports and competition cars, Mr Greaves was more than up to the challenge of corralling the numerous extra horses (albeit the seller was adamant they should use period parts wherever possible). Jaguar MKII front and back axles allowed for the fitment of Coopercraft vented disc brakes up front, a Powr-Lok limited slip differential at the rear and Koni shock absorbers all-round. The steering box is also a MKII item but has been uprated with electronic (EZ) power assistance. Affixed to the car via specially commissioned hubs, the 16-inch Halibrand peg-drive alloy wheels, Coombs-style rear arches and twin fuel fillers are the only external signs of the MKI's considerably enhanced performance potential. Although, the subtle Lister-referencing green and yellow banding around the radiator grille offers another clue that 'WHP 17' is no ordinary Jaguar. The interior with its original Red leather upholstery is similarly discrete. A veritable 'wolf in sheep's clothing' and a fitting tribute to a great man, 'WHP 17' doubtless has the potential to surprise and delight.

1999 Maserati 3200 GTA - 64,600 miles from new as substantiated by its extensive service history - Replacement automatic gearbox less than 1,000 miles ago, book pack, all keys, Becker stereo - 1 of 266 Maserati 3200 GTAs currently known to the DVLA Unveiled to the press in September 1998 by Luca di Montezemolo, Sir Stirling Moss and Giorgetto Giugiaro of Italdesign, the 3200 GT proffered a heady blend of style, luxury and performance. Powered by a 3.2-litre twin-turbo V8 developing some 365bhp / 362lbft, the 2+2-seater could be had with six-speed manual or (from 1999) four-speed automatic transmission. Christened the GTA, the self-shifter was reputedly capable of 0-60mph in 5.7 seconds and 168mph. Circa 870 of the 4,750 3200 GT/GTAs made were UK supplied. Finished in Grigio Touring Silver with Blue leather upholstery, this particular example is described by the vendor as being in 'excellent overall' condition with regard to its engine, automatic transmission, electrical equipment, bodywork, paintwork and interior trim. Serviced by Maranello Sales Ltd of Egham before migrating to Scotland, the Maserati appears to have well maintained thereafter. Indeed, its extensive history notes sixteen garage trips including several cambelt changes, suspension work and the installation of a replacement automatic gearbox less than 1,000 miles ago. Riding on Black-painted alloy wheels and understood to have covered just 64,600 miles from new, this rakishly handsome 3200 GTA is offered for sale with the aforementioned paperwork, book pack, all keys, Becker stereo and MOT certificate valid until December 2017.

1989 Ferrari 328 GTS - Desirable RHD example with just c.32,900 recorded miles - Rosso paintwork with Crema hide and red carpet - Good history file, MoT to May 2018 Introduced at the September 1985 Frankfurt Motor Show, the Ferrari 328 shot straight to the top of the 'junior supercar' league. Borrowed from the preceding 308, its tubular-steel chassis was equipped with double-wishbone independent suspension, front / rear anti-roll bars and potent disc brakes, and the adoption of a 288 GTO-specification steering rack brought notably sharper responses. Transversely mid-mounted, the newcomer's Tipo 105CB 'quad-cam' 32-valve V8 displaced 3185cc. Credited with developing 270bhp and 224lbft of torque, it was allied to five-speed manual transmission and gave suitably authoritative performance (0-60mph: 5.5 seconds / 158mph). Styled by Pininfarina, the 328 retained the same iconic silhouette as its forebear but added a larger 'egg crate' grille, new bumpers and reworked bonnet and boot lids. Available in both GTB (berlinetta) and GTS (spider) guises, the Ferrari also benefited from a revamped interior - again inspired by the 288 GTO - complete with improved switchgear, redesigned centre console and more cosseting seats. Beloved by the press and public alike, the 328 remained in production until 1989 by which time just 542 examples are thought to have been despatched to the UK. Delivered new on 1st August 1989 to a Roger Shrubb of Chorleywood via Lancasters of Colchester, this beautiful example was initially serviced by Strattons of Wilmslow before passing to its second keeper, Nicholas Goulandris of St John's Wood, London, on 22nd November 1990. By May 1995, with 16,608 miles recorded, it was being cared for by DK Engineering who also carried out a modification to the fuel injection system. DK continued to look after the car up to around 1997/8 following which servicing was entrusted to Moto Technique Ltd. Between 2000 and 2005 servicing was being done by Motorvation of Sarratt, Herts, before the car left the UK for a spell in Greece where maintenance and servicing was completed by official dealer Genesis SA of Athens. From the notes in the accompanying history file it came back to the UK in 2010, returning to Motorvation for servicing before passing to its third owner, Michael Docker of Loughton, Essex. In January 2012, a service at 32,137 miles was carried out by Maranello of Egham following which Graypaul completed another at 32,336 miles in May 2013 which included a complete application of Tuff-Kote Dinol retreatment to the underside. In August 2014, further servicing was carried out by Maranello of Egham at 32,491 miles before the car was offered for sale via Foskers with 32,606 miles on its odometer. Since acquisition by the vendor this cossetted example has continued to be used sparingly and still registers less than 32,900 miles. Included in the comprehensive history file are the wallet containing warranty card, service book and handbook, DVLA record print outs, numerous invoices from Foskers, Maranello, Graypaul, DK Engineering, Moto Technique, Motorvation and Genesis together with assorted expired MoT certificates back to 1997. The cambelts were last replaced by Foskers in January 2016 (less than 200 miles ago) and we understand the car will benefit from a checkover and an oil and cambelt service prior to the sale. Offered with Swansea V5C and MoT to May 2018, the vendor rates the bodywork, paintwork, engine, gearbox and electrics as all being in "excellent" condition. All in all, an extremely well-cared for righthand drive 328 that is worthy of close inspection. PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl. VAT (@ 20%)

1982 Porsche 911 Turbo - 1 of just 938 RoW C-Program Porsche 911 Turbos made - 58,000 miles from new and painted to Hellbronze Metallic to special order - Recently recommissioned following a prolonged period of dry storage and highly original In the early '70s, Porsche had designs on racing a turbocharged version of the 911, in support of which they planned a homologation special along the lines of the Carrera 2.7 RS. A subsequent change in the rules negated the need for a precise number of street legal vehicles but the company continued with the project anyway. Unveiled at the October 1974 Paris Show, the resultant Porsche 911 Turbo (930) was routinely among the fastest - if not THE fastest - accelerating supercars that money could buy during its fifteen-year production run (1975-1989). The newcomer was based around the Carrera 3.0 RS, the engine from which was modified courtesy of turbo technology originally developed for the legendary 917/30 CAN-AM cars. Initially displacing 3.0 litres, the need to keep pace with such supercar rivals as the Ferrari 512BB and Lamborghini Countach saw its force-fed flat-six grow to 3.3 litres in 1978. Although, the adoption of Bosch fuel injection some four years later brought no more horsepower (300bhp @ 5,500rpm), it did result in greater torque and better throttle response. Thus equipped, the 911 Turbo was reputedly capable of 0-60mph in 5.2 seconds and 162mph. To accommodate its extra performance over the 3.0 RS, the 930 sported revised suspension, larger brakes and a robust, four-speed gearbox. In order to help deliver the power to the road, a 'whale tail' rear spoiler was fitted and a wider rear wheel / tyre package was squeezed under specially flared arches. Adding this level of power to the already oversteer-prone handling of the 911 created a car that did not suffer fools gladly. In skilled hands, however, a 930 will show a clean pair of heels to most rivals. With more and more of today's supercars featuring traction control systems that cannot be deactivated, the first series 911 Turbo's 'Jekyll and Hyde' nature only adds to its appeal for certain enthusiasts. The Porsche Club of Great Britain estimates that less than 1,000 RHD 930s were UK supplied. 1 of just 938 'Rest of the World' (RoW) type C-Program 911 Turbos made between August 1981 and July 1982, this particular example - chassis 601 - was not only built to right-hand drive specification but also painted in special order Hellbronze Metallic. Although originally UK-supplied, the Porsche has been Eire-registered since 1984 and is understood to have covered just 58,000 miles from new. Recently recommissioned following a period of prolonged dry storage, the 930 is described by the vendor as being in 'very good / excellent overall' condition with regard to its 3.3-litre engine, four-speed manual gearbox, electrical equipment, bodywork, paintwork and interior trim. Pleasingly retaining its original Brown leather upholstery complete with Brown and Cream Pascha cloth inserts, the 2+2-seater also boasts air-conditioning and a period Blaupunkt stereo. Starting readily upon inspection and looking every inch the 1980s supercar in its special order livery, this reportedly low mileage 930 is expected to possess a fresh MOT certificate by the time of sale.
