2003 Caterham Super Seven Car Year: 2003 Car Manufacturer: Caterham Car Model: Super Seven Car Reg No.: FD03EFR Car Chassis No.: SDKRDKRR630022568 Car Colour: Yellow / Blue Automotive genius though he was, one imagines that the late Colin Chapman would be rather surprised that the Lotus Seven he launched at the 1957 Earls Court Motor Show, and then sold the manufacturing rights for in 1973, was still being built, bought, raced and enjoyed the world over, courtesy of Caterham. These days, though there is an ever-widening choice of chassis and engine options, the traditional narrow-bodied version of the car is still based on the Series 3 Lotus Seven. And, while few if any of the components are interchangeable between the Lotus and today`s Caterhams, the Chapman-penned concept and general configuration remain unaltered and, though many times copied, have never been bettered. For a while in the `60s, Sevens were banned from racing in the USA for being `too fast`. The model hit the same problem on this side of the Atlantic the following decade, prompting the then boss of Caterham Cars, Graham Nearn, to produce T shirts with the slogan "Caterham Seven..the car that`s Too Fast to Race.". They continue to embarrass all manner of usually vastly more expensive machinery, and with engines ranging from the 1.4-litre K Series to 2.3-litre Ford Duratec, 0-60mph is attainable in anything from 6.5 to just 3.1 seconds. This right-hand drive Super Seven was built in 2003 and purchased by the vendor direct from the manufacturer on April 1st 2006 for ú15,000. It is powered by the 1588cc version of the Rover-derived K Series engine mated to a five-speed manual gearbox, and is finished in Yellow with a Blue centre stripe and Black interior. A clearly little used example, it is regarded by the vendor as having "very good" bodywork, paintwork, interior trim, engine and transmission. `FD03 EFR` comes complete with a fresh MOT.

1927 Morris Cowley `Flatnose` Tourer Car Year: 1927 Car Manufacturer: Morris Car Model: Cowley `Flatnose` Tourer Car Reg No.: HH 3807 Car Chassis No.: 19746 Car Colour: Dark Blue This Flatnose Cowley was built and tested on April 28th 1927. By 1934 it was the property of a well-known writer and broadcaster from Carlisle, Daisy Washington. She was something of a motoring pioneer and one of the first women to drive ambulances for the British army in the Great War. Come WWII, she was back in France as captain of a F.A.N.Y unit assigned to the Polish forces. In 1950 she helmed `Happy Henry` (as she had christened the Cowley whose registration number is `HH 3807`), on a family trip from Carlisle to Oberammagau, Austria. In addition to the Cowley, she had a large 1920s Austin Saloon and though she would only tax one of them each year, she nevertheless drove whichever one she fancied; swapping the disc from car to car. According to the Cowley`s vendor, a disc for the Austin remains in the Morris`s windscreen to this day! Following Mrs Washington`s death, the Flatnose was auctioned at Harrison & Hetherington`s Borderway Mart of June 1978, where the present keeper acquired it for ú1,850 - considerably more than had been expected. However, one imagines the new owner must have been somewhat surprised to learn that Mrs Washington had in fact requested the car be burnt upon her death! Happily it lived on and, thanks to some remedial work carried out during 1979, was used for family outings in the Saffron Walden area until 1983; since when the four-seater has been stored in a dry barn. The vendor tells us that `HH 3807` is basically sound and original and features the rare, early-style sharp-edged radiator. This wonderful vintage Morris is being sold complete with green log book, photo of Mrs Washington polishing the car, articles from the Cumbrian Evening News, 1979 service/repair invoice, Flatnose Cowley manual and V5. A fabulous and affordable restoration project. Click Here to view this item on www.i-bidder.com
1973 Jensen Interceptor Mk3 Car Year: 1973 Car Manufacturer: Jensen Car Model: Interceptor Mk3 Car Reg No.: NBP 8M Car Chassis No.: 1368680 Car Colour: White Introduced at the October 1971 Earls Court Motor Show, the Jensen Interceptor III shared the same striking Vignale-penned sheetmetal and advanced tubular-chassis frame as its predecessors, but was readily distinguishable by its cast headlight surrounds, GKN alloy wheels and comprehensively revamped interior. Initially powered by a Chrysler 6.3-litre V8 engine, the model was soon upgraded with an even larger 7.2-litre unit. Boasting Torque-Flite three-speed automatic transmission and four-wheel disc brakes as standard, the 2+2-seater Coupe was both pleasingly refined and viciously quick. Indeed, the 7.2-litre versions were reputedly capable of 0-60mph in 6.4 seconds and 140mph. The model was bought by celebrities as diverse as Led Zeppelin drummer John Bonham, golfer Peter Butler, British Foreign Secretary Lord Carrington and World Motorcycle Champion Phil Read. The 1973 J-series versions are now particularly prized by enthusiasts. Finished in Off-White with a Black Everflex roof and Black leather upholstery, this particular example is described by the vendor as being in "excellent" condition with regard to its 7.2-litre V8 engine, three-speed automatic transmission, bodywork and paintwork, while he rates the electrical equipment and interior trim as "good" and "good original" respectively. The seller acquired `NBP 8M` in 2002 and considers it to be a substantially original car that has been merely refreshed over the years without ever requiring a full renovation The recorded mileage of just 58,854 miles from new is believed but not warranted to be genuine. The big Jensen has apparently been treated to a new carburettor, alternator, exhaust manifold, starter motor, battery and various electrical components within the last 10 years or so, and the vendor informs us that the only notable changes to the original equipment are a louvered bonnet, `SP` steering wheel and upgraded fans with manual override. Riding on the correct-type alloy wheels, this J-series Interceptor III is now offered for sale complete with MOT and road tax valid until the end of May.

1986 Porsche 924 S Car Year: 1986 Car Manufacturer: Porsche Car Model: 924 S Car Reg No.: C938CYN Car Chassis No.: WP0ZZZ92ZGN401051 Car Colour: Red Contracted to engineer a flagship sportscar for VW-Audi in the early 1970s (codenamed EA435), Porsche were only too glad to buy back the design rights when their client ran into financial difficulties. Paying a modest DM 100 million for the privilege, they readily agreed to VW`s stipulation that the car be built at the latter`s Neckarsulm plant. Suitably reworked, the Harm Lagaay-styled EA435 was unveiled to the world as the Porsche 924 in 1975. Based around a two-door monocoque bodyshell equipped with all-round independent suspension (MacPherson strut front, trailing arm rear), the newcomer boasted 50:50 weight distribution thanks to its rear-mounted transaxle. Powered by a VW-sourced 1984cc four-cylinder engine, the 2+2-seater was noted for its fine handling; some unkind pundits opining that the front-engined model cornered too well for a Porsche! Unveiled in late 1985, the higher performance `S` variant utilised the same 2479cc SOHC powerplant as its 944 sibling (albeit in slightly detuned guise). With 150bhp and 144lbft of torque on tap not to mention the benefit of power steering, the 924S was reputedly capable of 0-60mph in 8.4 seconds and 136mph. Only in production for three years, just 16,669 are thought to have been sold worldwide. Finished in Red with Black leather upholstery, this particular example was purchased by the vendor`s son in 2007. Since then the 924S is understood to have had its clutch, rear wheel bearings and water pump replaced as well as being treated to new timing and balancer shaft belts and tensioners etc. A new speedometer has also been required, so the total mileage is understood to be 69,000 rather than 32,345 currently showing. The vendor regards the bodywork, paintwork, interior trim, engine and five-speed manual gearbox as all being in "good" order and says the Porsche "seems tight and responsive". He is selling `C938 CYN` complete with owner`s manual, assorted invoices and MOT into March of next year. Click Here to view this item on www.i-bidder.com
1927 Chrysler Series 60 Tourer Car Year: 1927 Car Manufacturer: Chrysler Car Model: Series 60 Tourer Car Reg No.: SV 4360 Car Chassis No.: YE8055 Car Colour: Pale Green / Black Having rescued Willys from their financial woes but failed in his attempt to wrest control of the firm from John Willys, Walter Chrysler obtained a controlling stake in the ailing Maxwell Motor Company. By 1925 he had dropped the Maxwell name, rebranded the business as the Chrysler Corporation and created a triumvirate of notably gifted engineers in Breer, Skelton and Zeder. The launch of their new Series 50, 60, 70 and Imperial 80 models soon followed. Their numerical designations reputedly reflected the top speeds of which each variant was capable and therefore related to the size of engine fitted. The range was intended to provide customers with well-engineered cars at an affordable price and were, in many ways, ahead of their time - even featuring hydraulic braking on all four wheels. The approach was successful, with the company shooting to fourth place in the burgeoning American car market by 1927, as a result of some 192,083 sales. The splendid-looking right-hand drive Series 60 Four-Door Open Tourer offered was manufactured in 1927 and features Pale Green over Black bodywork and Black leather upholstery. It is reportedly powered by a six-cylinder engine of 2955cc mated to a three-speed manual gearbox. It is understood to have been imported from New Zealand some 20 years ago, where it had apparently undergone an extensive restoration. It retains many period features, including the wooden artillery wheels. It was recently equipped with a new battery, while the brake master cylinder was overhauled and the front brakes relined. The vendor describes the bodywork as "good/clean", the paintwork as "clean with no evident damage", the interior trim as "good" and the engine and gearbox as "serviceable". This charming vintage tourer is being sold complete with full weather equipment and tonneau, original driver`s instruction manual, photos of the engine work in New Zealand and an MOT into December.

1963 Alfa Romeo 2600 Sprint Car Year: 1963 Car Manufacturer: Alfa Romeo Car Model: 2600 Sprint Car Reg No.: 838 CLJ Car Chassis No.: AR821559 Car Colour: Red Introduced at the 1962 Geneva Salon, the Alfa Romeo 106-series was conceived as the Milanese manufacturer`s flagship range. Available in Berlina, Sprint and Spider guises, it was based on a reworked / elongated 102-series platform featuring all-round coil-sprung suspension and four-wheel disc brakes (though, some early cars had drums to the rear). Harking back to Alfa`s illustrious Grand Prix past, it was powered by a bespoke 2584cc DOHC straight-six engine. Credited with some 145bhp and 156lbft of torque, this monolithic all-alloy unit drove the rear wheels via a five-speed synchromesh manual gearbox. Arguably the best-looking variant, the two-door Sprint coupe was styled by newly appointed Carrozeria Bertone design chief, Giorgetto Giugiaro. Despite a reputed top speed of 125mph and spirited acceleration to match, the model was not as overtly sporting as it name implied. More of a sophisticated and refined Gran Turismo car instead, few rivals (and no other contemporary Alfa) could match its ability to seat four in comfort over long journeys at high speeds. Although, the Sprint outsold the Berlina and Spider, just 6,699 are thought to have been made during its six-year production life. Finished in Red with Tan hide upholstery, this particular example is understood to have been professionally converted to right-hand drive when new by Ruddspeed Engineering, who were the UK`s Alfa Romeo import agents at the time. The coupe has enjoyed long term ownership and was treated to a major restoration some years ago. Along the way, the three original Solex carburetters have been replaced by a set of 45DCOE Webers that not only look even more impressive, but are also understood to have added a further level of power. `838 CLJ` has recently enjoyed a full engine tune and extensive service and is said by the vendor to be "quick, responsive and fun to drive". Overall, he currently regards the bodywork, interior trim and engine as "excellent" and the paintwork as "very good". Click Here to view this item on www.i-bidder.com
1981 De Lorean DMC12 Car Year: 1981 Car Manufacturer: De Lorean Car Model: DMC12 Car Reg No.: ABW406X Car Chassis No.: SCEDT26TXBD005598 Car Colour: Stainless Steel Immortalised by its starring role in the film `Back to the Future`, the DMC-12 was the sole product of the DeLorean Motor Company that manufactured cars in Dunmurry, Northern Ireland from January 1981 until entering liquidation at the end of the following year. Some 9,000 examples were created, about 6,500 of which are thought to remain in existence. Impossible to confuse with any other car, the DeLorean was penned by Italian maestro Giorgetto Giugiaro and notable for its gullwing doors and unpainted stainless steel outer panels. Following pre-production problems, the vehicle was largely re-engineered by Lotus, resulting in a backbone chassis and running gear very similar to that of the Esprit. Power came from a rear mounted 2849cc V6 engine provided by the Peugeot-Renault-Volvo consortium. This gave 150bhp in European specification but some 20bhp less when equipped with emission equipment for the US market - the region in which most examples were sold. The positioning of the engine resulted in a weight distribution of 35F/65R. To keep production simple, there were just two options within the standard specification - the choice of manual or automatic transmission and either a Grey or Black interior. This car has automatic transmission and the popular Grey interior, but a unique story to tell. Manufactured in 1981, it was the first of 11 DMC-12s to be purchased from DeLorean`s receiver at a BCA auction at Blackbushe in 1982 and has remained in the same ownership ever since. Unregistered until this year, it has covered just 326 miles to date and is therefore presented in as-new condition. Its claim to fame is that it was employed in the promotion of Back to the Future and therefore played its part in cementing DeLorean`s short but dramatic history. Following some light recommissioning, this one owner, astonishingly low mileage DMC-12 is now offered with MOT into 2013. Click Here to view this item on www.i-bidder.com
2005 TVR Sagaris Car Year: 2005 Car Manufacturer: TVR Car Model: Sagaris Car Reg No.: L100TVR Car Chassis No.: SDLSA16A25B001174 Car Colour: Black Chameleon Designed by Graham Browne and Lee Hodgetts, the prototype Sagaris (the Greek name for a lightweight battle-axe) was unveiled at the MPH Show of 2003. The pre-production version then starred at the 2004 Birmingham Motorshow, yet it was not until 2005 that it finally became available to the expectant TVR enthusiasts. Conceived as a motorsport version of the T350 C, this was a racing car for the road; a Le Mans contender for the highways and byways. Below the bonnet of the `Blackpool Beast` lurked TVR`s 3996cc straight-six engine already known from the Tuscan S. This delivered some 380bhp and 349lbft of torque - sufficient output to fire the slippery two-seater to 60mph in just 3.7 seconds and on to a terminal speed of 185mph or more. Suspension was the traditional racing fare of double wishbones and coil springs at each corner and braking by sizeable ventilated discs all round - four-pot at the front and single pot at the rear. Steering was by power-assisted rack and pinion and the performance was delivered to the tarmac by 18-inch wheels shod with suitably meaty 255/35 section tyres. This is one mean-looking machine, its Black Chameleon hued bodywork teamed with dark-coloured alloys and a Black leather interior. It was purchased in September 2005 from marque specialist Christopher Neil for the not inconsiderable sum of ú55,425 and is being sold complete with the appropriate number plate - `L100 TVR`. The vendor classes the bodywork, paintwork, interior trim, six-cylinder engine and five-speed manual gearbox as all being in "very good" order. The odometer currently reads an unwarranted 25,894 miles and the current MOT is valid into July.
