Lot 101
The 944 was to feature new styling based upon the Le Mans-styles-Porsche 924 Carrera GT, along with a brand-new Porsche-designed and developed 2.5 litre, four-cylinder engine. Sales of the 168bhp coupé went through the roof with a massive 26,800 Porsche 944s being produced by the end of 1982. To put this figure into context, the entire Porsche company made just 28,000 cars in 1981. The new Porsche owners were attracted by the stunning looks and presence of the model and in 1985, the 'Lux' coupé arrived with a completely new interior design dominated by a smooth, sweeping oval dashboard. This severed all ties with the 924 and completed the move upmarket for the 944. The dash provided improved ergonomics for the instruments with all useful components and buttons placed close at hand. Originally registered on 23rd March 1989, this fabulous Porsche has been exceedingly well cared for by the vendor. Mechanically the car is faultless and the same can be said for the cosmetics. The blue coachwork was refreshed to a very high standard, the vendor then proceeded to have the car completely PPFd (paint protection film) at a cost of circa £5,000. The Linen leather interior is in splendid condition with a lovely patina. The split rim alloys are new and unmarked, the original wheels are available and will be supplied with the car. The fastidious vendor is a very knowledgeable classic car collector and has ensured this Porsche presents in the best possible condition and wants for nothing. A Porsche 944 turbo is a great car to drive, particularly with a manual gearbox as this example is. Supplied with a V5C registration document together with an MoT test certificate valid until 17th September 2022, this is an extremely fine Porsche.
Lot 104
The Jaguar Mk. II was a medium sized saloon built from 1959 to 1967 as a successor to the 2.4 and 3.4 litre models. The Mk. II was handsome, powerful, and good handling saloon which was offered with a choice of three six-cylinder twin cam engines; 2.4 litre, 3.4 litre or 3.8 litre. After the appreciation of the Mk. I, Jaguar's successor was well received thus making a good car even better. Similar in appearance but with a bigger glass area, it boasted a wider track to improve road holding together with minor front suspension changes to reduce body roll and fitted with the new Dunlop disc brakes all-round rather than drum brakes. The 210bhp 3.4 litre engine variant proved to be the most popular, offering the best compromise between performance and economy. Naturally, the performance was excellent, and the Mk. II has enjoyed great success on the track and can still be a very competitive historic race car. Raced by all the top drivers of the day including Graham Hill, Roy Salvadori and Michael Parkes, the Mk. II scored victories throughout saloon car races in the 60's and was also raced across Europe in the Tour de France and Monte-Carlo rally. The car also gained a reputation as a capable 'getaway car' among the criminal underworld. The Mk. II had seating for five adults and in 3.8 litre specification, could outrun almost any other car on the road.This example is presented in light Quartz Gunmetal Grey with blue leather interior. This was originally a Rhodesian car which we understand was imported to the UK in 2014 and registered with the DVLA in May 2015. Its original 3.4 engine has been replaced by the more potent and powerful 3.8 litre which is mated to a Borg Warner three-speed automatic gearbox. The interior is in good condition with the burr walnut woodwork looking good and is complimented by the Moto-Lita wooden steering wheel, so evocative of this era. The car comes with an original Jaguar workshop manual, Jaguar Heritage Trust certificate and various invoices. These are quintessentially British and evoke many nostalgic memories for a great deal of people, this is no exception!
Lot 123
The first 996 Series cars arrived on our shores in October 1997 but 2001 saw a revision of the 911 Carrera 2 and 4 ranges, with turbo-look headlamps, revised steering and suspension, interior upgrades, but most importantly of all, a 3.6-litre engine which developed 320bhp. The Cabriolet version's hood was amended, and it also gained a glass rear window. A Carrera 4S model with broad turbo style wide arches debuted in summer 2003. This stunning Guards Red 996 Carrera 4S is a credit to its owner. Offered in the more desirable manual guise, he purchased this Porsche in 2018 after an exhaustive search for the perfect 911 Cabriolet to enjoy his retirement and settled upon this all-Porsche main dealer history car with just two previous owners having importantly had all the necessary IMS bearing checks completed. The car had been ordered new from Porsche GB in Reading with a selection of upgrades that can all be found in the order letters and original documentation from 2004, this is coupled with a near perfect history file containing every invoice, service bill and receipt since new. The order summary showed that this C4S was specified with optional cruise control, heated seats, rear console, and handbrake in exterior colour (something that really brightens up a 911 interior) and CD autochanger along with PCM system and telephone module. Add in the tracker and tax, this car was £76,041 when new. The first owner kept the car until 2012 when the second owner purchased and thankfully kept up the maintenance with Porsche themselves. In 2019 feeling very happy with his 911 and shortly after a major service with Porsche Mid-Sussex, the car developed an engine fault which eventually was diagnosed as an IMS bearing failure, the owner contacted Porsche and in August of 2019 paid to have a brand-new short Porsche 911 engine fitted at the expense of a heavily discounted £9,719 by Porsche themselves at 45,818 miles. The car has since been serviced by Porsche and is much like a car that has covered 12,000 miles let alone 57,000. With no expense spared, a fully Porsche stamped and invoiced history, two keys and the desirable hardtop with stand and cover, this is a truly special example with an engine that is barely run-in!Interested parties should note that the original service book has been misplaced, however all the service invoices are in the history file. If found the vendor will forward this on to the winning bidder.
Lot 132
Introduced at the 2005 Geneva Motor Show, the V8 Vantage featured Aston Martin's advanced VH platform (bonded aluminium) architecture and a 4.3-litre 'quad-cam' dry-sump V8 developing some 380bhp and 302lbft. Available with a choice of manual or sportshift transmission, the newcomer was reputedly capable of 0-60mph in 4.7 seconds and 175mph. One of the new and hugely competent range of motorcars Aston Martin now offer.With just four former owners from new this superb-looking example comes with the six-speed manual transmission, and 19€ seven-spoke alloy wheels. Presented in metallic black with a contrasting leather interior, it also benefits from a black power hood and comes complete with satellite navigation, air-conditioning, Aston Martin alarm system, auto dim rear view mirror, bright finish grille and Xenon HID headlamps. In good condition throughout, the Aston is supplied with a V5C registration document, many old MoT records, sundry invoices, Aston Martin books, and a MoT test certificate valid until July 2022. Arguably the prettiest of modern-day Aston Martins, the V8 Vantage model looks fantastic and is even more impressive to drive.Interested parties should note that contrary to the catalogue description this example has an automatic gearbox and is not a six-speed manual.
Lot 134
The TR5 was built for a 13 month period between August 1967 and September 1968 in Coventry. Visually identical to the Michelotti styled TR4, the TR5 hid the main differences under the body. The most significant change was the 2.5 litre straight-six fuel-injected engine developing around 150bhp and which was carried forward to the TR6. At the time, fuel injection was uncommon in road cars. Triumph claimed in their sales brochure that it was the first British production sports car with petrol fuel injection. This engine could propel the TR5 from 0-50mph in just 6.5 seconds and on to a top speed of 125mph. Standard equipment included front disc brakes, independent rear suspension, rack and pinion steering and a four-speed gearbox. The available optional extras included overdrive, wire wheels and a hardtop with detachable roof panel, known as the Surrey Top.This stunning, fully restored, manual with optional overdrive TR5 was built in June 1968 before being first registered on 1st August, this is verified by the accompanying Heritage Certificate. Presented in possibly the best colour combination of dark blue with cream trim, this example completed a nut and bolt restoration in 2014, the restoration spanned the best part of a decade and can be seen in photos contained within the history file. Bills found in the history file amount to over £40,000 and include a full engine rebuild by Newark engines in Nottinghamshire before Rawles motorsport, in 2012, reconditioned and fitted a lightened flywheel, piper 244R camshaft and Revington TR exhaust. The chassis was galvanised and strengthened and the quality of the works is easy to see and is borne out by the smooth running of its 2498cc engine. Since the restoration the car has never seen the wet and has been housed in a garaged by its subsequent owners. Fitted with a rally bar with spots however the chrome front bumper is available. A recent inspection by Andrew Holyoak valued this example more than £50,000 and we can see why.Offered to auction with a V5C registration document, MoT test certificate with no advisories until February 2023, details and invoices from the restoration and a Heritage Certificate, this example is offered at a fraction of the expenditure lavished upon the vehicle during its restoration with only 1161 original right hand drive cars built it would be a great investment.
Lot 14
Synonymous with the swinging ‘60’s and the hit TV series, Inspector Morse, the Jaguar Mk. II has been used as a vehicle to transport everyone from dignitaries and politicians to bank robbers and the criminal select. When released, traditional Jaguar buyers had no need to feel alienated by the new offering from Coventry as the interior was up to their usual standards with leather and walnut being the order of the day. With 112bhp available, the 2.4 was not overly burdened with pace so, importantly, coupled to a manual gearbox with overdrive it would be the more frugal of the range but give the driver the ability to utilise the full range of the 2.4 engine. Presented in the splendid colour combination of Westminster Blue with deep red trim, this Mk. II has been owned by our vendor and Jaguar Enthusiast member for some 19 years having purchased the car in 1999 from a Mr Smith who had owned the car for the previous decade. After deciding to sympathetically restore the car, between 1999 and 2002 this Mk. II received a full retrim and interior restoration together with a complete brake overhaul, now boasting Coopercraft brakes, before the mechanicals were overhauled a year later with the engine and gearbox removed by Motafix of Bushey, Herts. The exact date the bodywork was restored is unknown, but it presents well today with the chromework and paint in keeping with an elegant but older restoration. The engine has seen a more recent upgrade to SU’s coupled to new manifolds to make more regular use more pleasant. Within the history file, numerous receipts and MoT test certificates can be found naturally from a car owned for such a long period. This very attractively priced Mk. II, with the crucial manual gearbox and optional overdrive, is a must for the budding Jaguar enthusiast or those looking for a great looking and practical classic car.Guide Price £10,000 - £15,000
Lot 142
The Nash Motor Company forms part of the very backbone of the American motor industry right from its inception in 1916 right through until relatively recently in 1957. It is also responsible for several safety innovations from unibody construction right through to seat belts with many models available throughout this period and it is the eight cylinder Advanced model that we have today.This standard Art-Deco coupé body was designed by Count Alexis de Sakhnoffsky, the Russian-born son of Prince Vladimir Sakhnoffsky who came to the West after fleeing the Bolshevik Revolution in Russia. By the early 1920s, Sakhnoffsky had become known in Europe as a designer of ultra-modern, streamlined sports cars. This put his design skills in high demand and, by 1929, Sakhnoffsky moved to America and began working for several motor companies including Auburn, Cord, and American Austin. Indeed, the L-29 Cord body he designed for himself won the Grand Prize at the 1929 Monaco Concours d'Elegance and the Grand Prix d'Honneur at the 1929 Beaulieu Concours.In fact, it was the coupé that formed the basis of what we have here. An Australian (hence righthand drive) industrialist fell in love with this model and bought three examples. This was just the beginning however as he then had them stripped back and rebuilt to his own specification.They benefitted from a huge straight eight-cylinder, overhead valve engine with an advanced twin ignition, 16 sparkplug layout with power passing through a flexible three-speed manual gearbox.Restored in Australia by the previous owner, now deceased, it was then shipped to the UK by the vendor in September 2005. During its time here, it has been meticulously prepared to the extent that every single element of the original electrical and mechanical system now works and every part of this car functions as it should. For safety, directional signals have been added and it also benefits from a recent service and 12-month MoT test. It has since gone on to win a myriad of accolades including several concourse prizes, full details of which can be found in the accompanying file.Whilst two other examples of this car were thought to have been built, the whereabouts of these are unknown and so, therefore this, with its period set of hickory-shafted golf clubs and picnic set, represents one of the rarest Nashs in the world.Interested parties should note that this example is fully UK road registered and complete with a UK V5C.
Lot 16
Rick Stevens founded Kougar Cars in 1979, although the first (approximately 30) cars were marketed by a company called Storcourt Wells Ltd. He built the prototype in 1976 which incorporated an aluminium body, all the other cars have a fibreglass bodyshell. Ricks inspiration for the Kougar originated in his ownership of a Jaguar S-Type saloon but recognised that it had a scrap value of only £100 to £200. He also realised that a first-class sports car could be made by connecting the heavy lumps of the Jaguar together with a simple light weight body and chassis unit. The sports car design was not directly inspired by any particular vehicle, but he admitted to having a certain fondness for the Frazer Nash TT replica and the Healey Silverstone.Registered on 19th April 1968 as a Daimler SP250, this Kougar is now fitted with the ultra-reliable 4235cc six-cylinder XK unit, mated to a manual gearbox with overdrive. Recent work carried out on this Kougar includes removing the body, inspecting, and painting the chassis. A new rack and pinion have been fitted as have a new clutch, radiator, and new carpets. The vendor - a knowledgeable classic car enthusiast has enjoyed owning WPO 464F and is only selling this stylish sports car due to lack of suitable storage space. We are advised she drives well, and the engine appeared to have excellent oil pressure during our inspection. Sitting proudly on wire wheels, this Kougar is offered for sale with a V5C registration document and a tonneau cover in anticipation of any inclement weather.
Lot 162
Sharing the Volkswagen Group A5 platform, it debuted at the Frankfurt Motor Show in October 2003 and went on sale in Europe one month later. The Golf Mk. 5 was replaced in 2009 with the Mk. 6. The GTI comes with VW's four-cylinder 2.0L Turbo engine (FSI) which gives it 197 bhp. Transmissions include a six-speed manual or six-speed DSG. The Mk. 5 is now regarded as probably the best incarnation of the legendary GTi after the original Mk. 1 of 1976-1983 and is fast acquiring modern classic status.Imported from Japan, this superb example from the daddy of hot hatches is presented in red with grey GTi check cloth interior and is immaculate throughout. The car comes with electric folding mirrors, cruise control, climate control, electric windows, six-speed DSG automatic gearbox, privacy glass, Xenon headlights along with 12 invoices and stamps. This particular GTis condition should be viewed in the flesh to really appreciate it. Great value, extremely low mileage and stunning to look at.
Lot 163
This model was introduced by the British Motor Corporation in 1952 and manufactured from 1953 to 1956. It was designed under the Nuffield Organization but by the time it was released, Wolseley was part of BMC. Much of the design was shared with the MG Magnette ZA which was released later in the same year. Unlike the MG, the 4/44 used the 1,250 cc XPAW engine a version of the XPAG engine previously seen in the later MG T-type series of cars but detuned by only having a single carburettor. The four speed manual transmission had a column change. The car had upmarket trim with wooden dashboard and leather seats and a traditional Wolseley radiator grille with illuminated badge but was expensive at GBP997 on the home market. The 4/44 was replaced in 1956 by the similar Wolseley 15/50.This lovely example of this very British model is presented in dark green with green leather interior showing a nice patina. The present owner has carried out some recent repairs and some upgrades, which include electronic ignition, electronic fuel pump, new stainless steel exhaust system, new tyres/tubes (Vredestein classic), full brake overhaul and a full service and MoT test certificate which expires in February 2023; the full list is available to read in the history file. The interior woodwork is in good condition, and we are told the car drives well. A wonderful traditional British motor car which is practical and spacious for those trips to shows and rallies.
Lot 24
The Porsche 944 was built from 1982 to 1991 and was built on the same platform as the 924. It was intended to last into the 1990s but major revisions planned for a 944 S3 model were eventually rolled into the 968 instead which replaced the 944. The 944 was a successful model and was available as both a coupé and cabriolet in naturally aspirated and turbocharged forms.This manual Guards Red 944 was first registered on 1st January 1985 supplied by John Lamb Porsche in Chesterfield and is complemented by charcoal 944 trim with embossed Porsche logo. An incredibly low mileage example for the year and boasting just five owners from new we are informed that everything works as it should and is a fabulous drive. There is a good history file with a stamped service booklet in the book pack and this coupé has recently been treated to a cambelt change and full service as well as an MoT test certificate valid until November 2022 incidentally with no advisories. Owned and enjoyed by a Porsche club GB enthusiast this is a very nice example of an appreciating modern classic.
Lot 27
Talbot or Clément-Talbot Limited was an English-French automobile manufacturer founded in 1903. Clément-Talbot's products were named just Talbot from shortly after introduction, but the business remained Clément-Talbot Limited until 1938 when it was renamed Sunbeam-Talbot Limited. The founders, Charles Chetwynd-Talbot, 20th Earl of Shrewsbury and Adolphe Clément-Bayard, reduced their financial interests in their Clément-Talbot business during the First World War.This well presented example has been in continuous use throughout its life and is offered in good order throughout. The Darracq coachbuilt body is in good condition and the six-cylinder, overhead camshaft, 2.3 litre Talbot engine is in good working order, as is the four-speed pre-select gearbox with centrifugal clutch. The interior is largely original apart from the front seat cushions which have been re-covered at some stage during its life, all in all showing a nice patina. Fitted with a remote modern oil filter and offered with a sizeable history file which includes many club magazines, technical drawings, invoices for work done over the years, workshop manual instructions, sundry invoices, and an old original-style logbook dating back to 1947. This fine 30s tourer is ready to go and represents fantastic value for money in comparison to similar models of its era.
Lot 28
The 1948-1953 Chevrolet Series 3100 ½ ton pick-ups benefited from a redesign that took Chevrolet trucks into a new era of comfort, convenience, and style. Chevrolets restyled Advance Design trucks were introduced in 1947, well ahead of its first new post-war cars and little changed in appearance through 1953. The basic intent was to provide more room and comfort for occupants. These pick-ups had a bench seat accommodating three people instead of the old separate seats and for the first time, the seat was adjustable for longer leg room. The cab, described as Unisteel Battleship construction, was larger in every direction. New extra-wide doors swung open on concealed hinges and extended down to cover the sills. The window area grew considerably via a wider windscreen, side windows and backlight, a vast improvement all-round compared to the previous models. The rare 1954 model saw significant design changes for one year only. The windscreen was changed to one piece without a centre vertical dividing strip, the steering wheel was revised as were the taillights, grille and dashboard.The original paintwork on this 1954 model 3100 pick-up has a wonderful patina and, we are told, has the original woodwork in the load space area. This column shift, manual transmission example fired up when requested and we are informed drives well. We strongly advise any interested parties to personally inspect this Chevrolet as it is in such original condition and imported from a dry state, showing no sign of any corrosion. The phrase they dont build them like they use to applies to this ½ ton pick-up. The file for this Chevrolet contains a Nova certificate following the pick-ups importation and a V5C registration document has been applied for.
Lot 29
First launched in the 2006 model year, the Cayman is a coupé derived from Porsche's second and third generation Boxster roadster, styled in its first iteration by Pinky Lai. All Caymans were manufactured in Finland by Valmet Automotive. The car is not named after the Cayman Islands. Both the car and the islands are named after the caiman, a member of the alligator family. When the Cayman arrived at dealerships for sale, the automaker adopted four caimans at Stuttgart's Wilhelma Zoo.This example of the Porsche Cayman is presented in Silver with blue leather trim, importantly this has the manual gearbox as it is befitting of a true drivers car. Optioned from new was a Porsche Navigation combined with aftermarket Bluetooth and Cayman S Wheels. The service history is comprehensive early servicing with Porsche in 2008 and 2010 and more recently with specialists. In March 2020 at 58,000 miles a bill of £1,825 can be found for replacement of the air/oil separator, water pump & hoses, temperature sensor, auxiliary belt and tensioner. All four wheels were refurbished and minor service, brake fluid change and new battery carried out in January 2022. The car is offered to auction with a V5C registration document and a valid MoT test certificate. It is powered by a 2.7 litre flat-six engine and mated to that manual gearbox we are told is a joy to drive.
Lot 34
Launched at the 1963 Earls Court Motor Show, the P6, Rovers internal project name, was aimed at the young executive who wanted modern, sporting, high quality transport. Winner of the European Car of the Year Award 1964, it had an advanced design that included a De Dion tube rear suspension, disc brakes all round and an alloy bonnet and boot lid. The early four-cylinder power plants remained conventional until the introduction of the fabulous Buick derived 3528cc V8 which joined the party in 1968, and it is one of those V8 powered motor cars offered today. A Borg Warner 35 automatic was the only transmission until the 1971 addition of a four-speed manual 3500 S model, fitted with a modified version of the gearbox used in the 2000/2200. The letter S did not denote Sport, it was chosen because it stood for something specific on those cars: Synchromesh. However, it is important to note that the 3500 S was noticeably quicker than the automatic version of this car with a 0-60 mph time of 9 seconds, compared with 10.1 for the automatic car. Moreover, due to the fuel-guzzling nature of automatic gearboxes of this era, the manual car's official cycle was 24 mpg compared to the automatic's 22 mpg.This stunning Rover has been restored to concours standard and is a credit to the skilled workmanship as well as the current vendor. The Russet Brown coachwork is in unmarked condition and has a lovely finish to the paintwork. The red leather trim has been renewed and again, to a very high standard, the colour contrast between the exterior and interior certainly complements each other. The standard 3.5 litre block has been upgraded to a 4.0 litre, offering a brisker performance, the original block is available with the car if required. Start the engine on this P6 and it is immediately apparent this is a special motor car, the familiar V8 burble is evocative. We are advised this Rover drives very well with no known faults. Aesthetically, these are beautiful cars and the ergonomics make this a delightful car to drive. With every panel as straight as one could ever wish for and doors that close with the lightest of pressure and the faintest click, the phrase they dont build like that anymore springs to mind. Viewing is highly recommended of this Rover P6 3500 S to appreciate the quality.
Lot 35
When the Klaus Kapitza designed 8 Series was launched at the Frankfurt Motor Show in 1989, it felt like a glimpse into the future with its angular styling. An upmarket range with superior performance and price tag to match, the 8 Series was designed to be a stand-alone premium model although seen to be the successor to the 6 Series. The 8 Series was offered in 830i, 840Ci and 850i/Ci form and, when introduced in mid-1993, it was fitted with a four litre, V8 engine mated to either a five-speed automatic or a six-speed manual transmission. Producing a very healthy 282bhp, this version could achieve the 0-62mph sprint in an impressive 6.9 seconds; importantly with the naturally aspirated V8, acceleration was effortless and refined. Over $1 billion dollars are said to have been spent on the car's design with CAD design and wind tunnel technology. From mid-1995, production phased in the newer 4.4 litre M62B44 engine, which had better fuel economy and more torque, though power output remained unchanged.Originally supplied by the BMW main dealer on the 14th June 1996 this 1996 BMW 840ci is in the stable of BMWs that our vendor has collected over the past decade and interestingly all in the same colour. Presented in Maroon with Grey leather this example has just five former keepers and boasts a comprehensive history file. Owned by our vendor since 2018 the car has remained garaged and cared for. The paintwork in in very good order and inside boasts the original Nokia mobile phone and cradle that befitted these executive coupés. Treated to a recent MoT test certificate these BMW 8 series are becoming a more appreciated modern classic and this example no exception. What better way to enjoy driving than in this pillarless coupé.Guide Price £8,000 - £12,000
Lot 41
With a name reminiscent of the 500 Mondial race cars from the 1950s, the Ferrari Mondial was a replacement model for the Ferrari 308 GT4. The Mondial was the first Ferrari where the entire engine, gearbox and rear suspension assembly was mounted on a detachable steel subframe, making engine removal for a major rebuild or cylinder head removal much easier than it was on previous models. The steel coachwork was taken care of by Carrozzeria Scaglietti and built over a lightweight steel box section space frame. The Mondial 8 is considered one of the marque's most practical vehicles.Originally registered on 12th November 1986, this Ferrari Mondial is presented in metallic grey with lovely Crema trim which is in good condition. The car presents well and is offered with many invoices from Superformance and a stamped service booklet combined with all but one MoT test certificate since 1991. Fitted with a sports exhaust which gives this wonderful 32 valve Ferrari the sound of a Formula 1 car, combined with the practicality of four seats. Supplied with a V5C registration document together with a history file containing the original service book, owners manual and invoices within the leather-bound folder. Accompanied by an MoT test certificate valid until July 2022, this is an appreciating classic which we believe to be one of only three UK cars presented in this colour combination and boasting the desirable 3.2 litre Quattrovalvole engine. The vendor has addressed several issues that were present when he purchased the car and the impressive list of works done is present in the file. These include considerable work to the ignition and electronics giving this Ferrari a new lease of life. A job relocation is the reason for the reluctant sale by the vendor.

An upmarket range with superior performance and price tag to match, the 8 Series was designed to be a standalone premium model although seen to be the successor to the 6 Series. The 8 Series was offered in 830i, 840Ci and 850i/Ci form and, when introduced in mid-1993, it was fitted with a four litre, V8 engine mated to either a five-speed automatic or a six-speed manual transmission.

From mid-1995, production phased in the newer 4.4 litre M62B44 engine, which had better fuel economy and more torque, though power output remained unchanged. Manufactured on 12th June 1996, this beautiful BMW has been very well cared for throughout its 26 years on British roads. The car has had 13 services in that period and the modest mileage of 64,911 is warranted with comprehensive maintenance records and previous MoT test certificates. However, the current fastidious vendor appears to have taken this car to a different level. Having purchased a jolly good car on 1st September 2020, he has spent a further £16,000 during his stewardship, resulting in what must surely be one of the best 840Cis available in the country today. The work has been carried out by Automotive Solutions in Henley-on-Thames and by Sytner BMW in Maidenhead. Work includes new front and rear brake discs, rebuilt brake calipers, new rocker cover gaskets and a major service including a gearbox service. Four new Hankook tyres have recently been fitted to the unmarked alloy wheels. The red coachwork is unmarked as is the grey leather interior. Supplied with a V5C registration document together with a current MoT test certificate, valid until 17th January 2023 and a comprehensive history folder, together with an original spare key. Prices have been increasing of late for these handsome iconic cars of the 90s. Viewing is highly recommended to appreciate the quality of this stunning example.

The Porsche 928 GTS was the final, and some say ultimate, iteration of Porsches grand tourer. Famously intended to replace the venerable 911, the 928 ended up complementing the rear-engined model perfectly; with a mighty V8 engine under the bonnet, the 928s 50:50 weight distribution endowed it with both power and sublime handling. While its size might have counted against in along tight, twisty lanes, nothing feels better in long, sweeping, high speed curves, especially behind the wheel of a GTS, where that deep front spoiler and huge rear wing help crush it into the tarmac.Its an easy supercar to drive, too. The visibility from the drivers seat is unparalleled, as are the ergonomics; the 928 can easily be used as a daily driver, dismissing the weekly Waitrose run with the same disdain as a 500-mile road-trip.Presenting in Schwarz Black metallic this 928 GTS was first registered on the 16th February 1995 directly to HJH Aisah Binti Haji Matussin in the Brunei Royal family from Porsche AG Stuttgart with Porsche GB confirming the date of manufacturer as the 25th August 1994. Imported to the UK in 2017 having covered very few miles the car was recommissioned at a cost in excess of £8,000 including new cambelts and given a fresh MoT test certificate, more recently it has had refreshed paintwork with another invoice in excess of £6,000. The later 5.4 Litre automatics with the thunderous V8 featured the Dynamic Kickdown gearboxes setting them apart from the previous models and uprated electric. Having covered a staggering 8,200 miles from new this now represents a real collectors example and boasting 345bhp an MoT test certificate until May 2022, drivers manual and a global service centre booklet. Still showing as with the first UK owner it is sure to be very popular amongst collectors especially with a certain risky business 928 having claimed a world record price at auction last year making this look an incredible price point for such a low mileage example with provenance.Interested parties should note, as an extremely low mileage collector example this car has spent most of its life in storage therefore it is advised some minor mechanical recommissioning maybe required.

The Triumph TR3 was built between 1955 and 1962 and was usually supplied as an open two-seater, although an occasional rear seat and bolt-on steel hardtop were available as extras. It was powered by a 1991cc engine which initially produced 95bhp increasing to 100bhp at 5000rpm. The four-speed manual transmission could be supplemented by an overdrive unit on the top three ratios electrically operated and controlled by a switch on the dash. In 1956, the front brakes changed from drum to disc becoming the first British series production car to do so. Because of these disc brakes, the TR3 became known for its superior braking ability, making it an autocross favourite. This beautiful TR3 is presented in stunning white coachwork with contrasting and retrimmed grey trim. It was originally registered to South Africa and in 2004 was restored to a then concours level winning both silver and gold medals at the National Triumph and KZN Concours d’Elegance events. The process was described as a no expense spared nut and bolt rebuild and the quality is still evident today. The previous owner, an ex-resident of South Africa, sourced and purchased the car from renowned dealer Norman Frost of Frost Brothers in Knysna and imported the car to the UK in June 2018 having covered only 2,000 miles since the restoration. Despite being overhauled and uprated including TR4 manifolds and carbs with a road race cam and rack and pinion steering, he wanted the car to look, start and run perfectly so employed the services of ‘The Village Garage’ in East Grinstead to sweep through the car and ensure he got full enjoyment out of it every time he turned the key. Having spent in the region of £4,000 fettling the car to his requirements it now runs and drives very well indeed. The current vendor purchased this wonderful example from us last year, however he has unfortunately not had the time to use it. Coming to the market having been dry stored and maintained to a high standard it is offered with a comprehensive history file including photographic evidence of the restoration and all relevant documentation, this is a wonderful sports car and viewing is strongly recommended.

The very pretty and highly desirable Mercedes-Benz 250 SL was the successor to the popular 230 SL and was first introduced to the public at the 1967 Geneva Motor Show. The brief production run ended a year later in January 1968 and as a result of this short run, the 250 SL is the rarest of the W 113 (Pagoda) series cars. These lovely German stalwarts were offered with a four-speed automatic, a four-speed manual box or the ZF five-speed. Also, for the first time an optional limited slip differential was also available. This fabulous fully restored, including engine rebuild, Pagoda Mercedes is presented in red with black leather interior and is left hand drive. Its restoration was carried out by various Mercedes-Benz specialists and looks fabulous. The car had a full glass-out respray, brand new Mercedes-Benz grained leather interior including full dash, door cards, seats etc. Brand new salt and pepper carpets have been installed and brand new wood including dash and surrounds. The restoration also included a brand new Mohair hood, exhaust, headlights and rubber seals throughout, interior works carried out by leading marque specialists, D Class of Surrey cost in excess of £16,000. The full list of the works carried out can be seen in the history file as well as the summary of the engine work which was carried out and it has covered zero miles since its completion. As part of its engine rebuild, it received a full tune up and reset all settings and controls, reset mixture/tappets and clearances as well as draining the oil, brake fluid and the braking system was fully bled. The original documents held on file include its Service Book, stamped Mercedes-Benz Kundendienst, Germany. Fastidious attention to maintaining originality including correct period Becker Europa radio, Hirschmann aerial and new Michelin tyres. This truly is a superb restoration and is resplendent in its gleaming new red paint. One of the finest of this marque on the market today. The Vendor has applied for a V5 log book from the DVLA but this may not have arrived by the time of the Auction. Therefor it may be sold without its new log book but when it arrives the new owner can then apply for it to be changed into their name.Interested parties should note that whilst driving well when being consigned and photographed three weeks ago, a new fuel pump has been fitted which currently is not working but the vendor will rectify at his cost before any new owner takes delivery of this vehicle.

The E-Type Series III was introduced in 1971, with a new 5.3 litre, V12 engine, uprated brakes, and standard power steering. Optionally, an automatic transmission, wire wheels and air conditioning were available. The brand new V12 engine produced 272bhp, had more torque, and a 0-60mph acceleration of less than seven seconds, which was phenomenal for the price of the car at that time, considering its competition in the marketplace. The short wheelbase fixedhead coupé body style was discontinued, with the Series III available only as a convertible and 2+2 coupé. The newly used longer wheelbase now offered significantly more room in all directions. These models were easily identifiable by the large cross-slatted front grille, flared wheel arches, wider tyres, four exhaust tips and a badge on the rear that proclaims it to be a V12. It is thought that only 7,990 convertibles and 7,297 fixedhead cars were produced.This lovely example of the V12 Series III E-type was originally supplied by Mann Egerton of London and registered in 1974 but originally manufactured in August 1973. The car is a low mileage, UK delivered, right hand drive, manual gearbox which has been owned by our vendor for 11 years and by the previous owner for 19 years before that. The vehicle is presented in in its original colour of Old English White with French Blue interior and a new mohair hood. Purchased in the Spring of 2011 this car has been continuously garaged by our vendor and has had regular specialist mechanical attention for services and maintenance during this period, as detailed in the large history file. Boasting two former keepers, the original owner having confirmed by letter that the mileage at the time was correct, this is an incredibly low owner car with confirmed mileage and a large amount of supporting history including Jaguar Heritage Trust letter and certificate, original handbook, original Jaguar Service Passport, many invoices and previous MoT test certificates.

Sharing the Volkswagen Group A5 platform, it debuted at the Frankfurt Motor Show in October 2003 and went on sale in Europe one month later. The GTI comes with VW's four-cylinder 2.0L Turbo engine (FSI) which gives it 197 bhp. Transmissions include a six-speed manual or six-speed DSG. The Mk. 5 is now regarded as probably the best incarnation of the legendary GTi after the original Mk. 1 of 1976-1983 and is fast acquiring modern classic status.Imported from Japan, this superb example is presented in black with grey GTi check cloth interior and is in great condition throughout. The car comes with electric folding mirrors, cruise control, climate control, electric windows, six-speed DSG automatic gearbox, privacy glass, Xenon headlights and it comes with a full service history with eight service invoices and stamped service book. This particular GTis condition should be viewed in the flesh to really appreciate it as it is unmarked inside, outside and underneath and comes with a mileage guarantee certificate! Great value and stunning to look at.

This UK supplied right hand drive Series I 3.8 litre fixedhead coupé was manufactured on 28th February 1962 and is one of the first 250 E-Types produced. Delivered to its first owner, Mr Oggelsey of Harpenden, the Jaguar has had six keepers from new and was fitted with a replacement 3.8 Litre E-Type engine in period. Interestingly, the replacement engine block was originally fitted to chassis 875001, which was the first left hand drive E-Type roadster off the production line! In 2000 the Jaguar was treated much restoration work by Thoroughbred Car Services of Southend at a cost of some £12,000. This included renovation of the engine and gearbox, rebuilt carbs, new clutch kit, rebuilt axle, radiator overhaul and fitment of Kenlowe fan, new braking system, steering and suspension overhaul, new engine and gearbox mountings, an electrical system overhaul plus numerous other item. Acquired by the last owner in 2016, the E-Type was treated to further restoration work including repair to the body and floor panels and an extensive bare metal respray. At this time all rubbers, seals and trim parts were replaced as necessary, while the interior was also re-trimmed as required and a stainless-steel exhaust fitted. Following the restoration work, the E-Type has covered very little mileage and as such presents in wonderful order. The underside is very clean and the paintwork, shut lines and wheels are in very good condition. The moss gearbox performs as it should, and the engine, which holds good oil pressure, sounds fantastic when on song. Regardless of the recent low usage, OJC 433 has been fully maintained annually by renowned Jaguar specialist, Alan Collins and, despite its exempt status, comes with a MoT test certificate valid until July 2022. The history file that accompanies the car contains various invoices and photographs detailing the restorations, a V5C registration document, the original owners manual and sales brochure, a service manual, Heritage Certificate, and the original and rare paperwork wallets.

The Ferrari 575M Maranello is a two-seat, two-door, grand tourer which was launched in 2002, it is essentially an updated 550 Maranello featuring minor styling changes from Pininfarina. The 575M was replaced by the 599 GTB in the first half of 2006. Updates from the 550, included a renewed interior, but with substantial improvements mechanically, including bigger brake discs, a larger and more powerful engine, improved weight distribution, refined aerodynamics and fluid dynamics along with an adaptive suspension set-up (the four independent suspensions are also controlled by the gearbox, to minimise pitch throughout the 200 milliseconds shift time). Two six-speed transmissions were available, a conventional manual gearbox and for the first time on a Ferrari V12, Magneti Marelli's semi-automatic (Electrohydraulic manual) 'F1' gearbox. The 575 model number refers to total engine displacement in litres, whilst the 'M' is an abbreviation of modificato ('modified').This very good Ferrari 575M F1, fitted with the semi-automatic gearbox, was supplied new in 2002 by Cornes Ferrari in Japan and imported to the United Kingdom in May 2017.

The Porsche 993 was introduced in 1993 as a replacement for the 964 generation of the iconic 911 model and was built until 1998. Regarded by many as the best generation of 911s ever produced from Stuttgart, this car was the last to use the air cooled flat-six engine that had powered 911s for the previous thirty years. The 993 was offered in a number of guises and specifications during its production life including two and four-wheel drive trains, known as Carrera and Carrera 4 respectively. The 993 was the first generation 911 to have standard six-speed manual transmission. The Carrera, Carrera S, Cabriolet and Targa models (2WD) were available with a Tiptronic four-speed automatic transmission which was first introduced in the 964.First registered on 1st August 1996, this fantastic example of the final air cooled 911 has only covered an incredible 36,170 miles in its 25 year life. The accompanying Porsche Certificate of Authenticity confirms that the car was delivered new to Stratstone Porsche in Midnight Blue Metallic with a dark blue hood and optional extras including 17€ New Cup design wheels, top tinted windscreen, immobiliser and a Sony CD radio tuner. Unchanged from its factory ordered specification, this must be one of the lowest mileage examples in existence. The cars history file shows every MoT test certificate from 2003 onwards, as well receipts for maintenance carried out and copies of the stamps from its service book. In the nicely presented history file is also a list showing all of the cars services and the mileages at each from new. Supplied with a fresh MoT test certificate valid through to February 2023 and two new rear tyres, the car has covered just over 100 miles since its last service at Porsche Brooklands in 2021. The vendor reports the car to run and drive just as you would expect a car of its pedigree to and is only selling due to lack of use, having covered less than a thousand miles in his entire ownership.Supplied with V5C registration document, MoT test certificate valid until February 2023, service history file, past MoT test certificates and Porsche Certificate of Authenticity. A rare opportunity to own a low mileage, unmodified design classic that was the evolutionary pinnacle of Porsches legendary air cooled flat-six.

Alpine, once an independent company specialising in faster Renaults, and later a Renault subsidiary, established a fine competition history with the stunning Alpine A110, winning the 1973 Monte-Carlo Rally and World Championship. The successor was the Alpine A310 that was initially powered by a tuned 17TS/Gordini four-cylinder engine, the six-cylinder 2,664cc V6 option arriving in 1976. The A310 was labour intensive, having been developed for small-scale artisanal production, the basis being a hefty tubular steel backbone chassis clothed in a fibreglass shell. The engine was mounted longitudinally in the rear driving the wheels through a manual five-speed gearbox. With the weight a mere 980kg, the Renault Alpine was a fine performer indeed. This rare example, which began life as a standard A310, was the subject of a large article in Classic Cars magazine June 2019 edition. It is presented in white with black leather interior which was trimmed by a Renault specialist some years ago and looks great. The car was sold new to its first owner in France in November 1978, who transformed it into GT specification and in the history file is the original sale brochure which came with the car, albeit in French! Like so many seventies supercars, the massive wheel arch extensions were part of a Group 4 homologation overhaul intended to accommodate a new kind of motor sport-bred tyre, in this case, the Pirelli P7. Its all alloy wide angle 2.7 litre V6 is directly related to a Le Mans winner and fed by a bizarre looking combination of single and twin choke Solex carburettors. Its Alpine Fleschmann Nogano alloys were made exclusively for the GT pack by PLS and look superb on this ultra-rare French sports car. These Alpines were known for their steering which enabled drivers to use it to great success on Rallies and Hillclimbs throughout Europe. Its black leather interior also combines one or two hints that it was used at some point in its history for timed rallies with the presence of twin stopwatches and a timing device, although there is no suggestion or proof that it competed competitively in period or since! This is a superb opportunity to acquire a rare and exciting sports car from the 1970s which still looks very cool!Interested parties please note that this Alpine is a standard A310 and not a GT as described. It was changed to GT specification in the late 1970s by a previous owner in France.

The Range Rover is a large luxury four-wheel drive sport utility vehicle launched in 1970 and is now in its fourth generation. In 1967, the first Range Rover prototype was built with the classic Range Rover shape clearly discernible although with a different front grille and headlight configuration. The design of the Range Rover was eventually finalised and signed off in 1969. Some 25 years after the introduction of the Range Rover, the second-generation Range Rover model designation P38A was introduced for the 1995 model year with an updated version of the Rover V8 engines. There was also the option of a 2.5 litre BMW six-cylinder turbo-diesel engine. This was a result of BMW's subsequent ownership of Rover Group and hence the Land Rover brand. The new model offered more equipment and premium trims and was positioned above the Land Rover Discovery to face the increased competition in the SUV marketplace. This model was the last to feature the Rover V8 engine and interior leather supplied by Connolly who sadly went out of business in 2002.Manufactured on 28th July 1994 and originally registered on 1st August this pre-production Range Rover has recently been restored to concours condition. This 4.0 SE was used as part of the original press launch at Cliveden and still bears the original registration number of M247 CVC. The bodywork was restored by Eric Tenney of Bodycraft, the Biarritz Blue paintwork finish is excellent. The manual gearbox and transfer case were overhauled by Hardy Engineering and the engine was rebuilt by SRS Engineering. The heating and air conditioning systems were restored and operate efficiently. The air suspension has also been totally overhauled and functions exactly as it should. Supplied with a V5C registration document together with an MoT test certificate valid until 14th September 2022. A comprehensive file with invoice for all the work carried out is present as is a Heritage Certificate. This P38 Range Rover represents a significant piece of British motoring history and appears to be attractively estimated given the pre-production status and remarkable condition.
