2002 Honda VFR800FA-2 Transmission: manualMileage:27265This delightful Honda was originally registered on 1st September 2002, the last MoT expired on 30th March 2022 and the bike has covered a mere three miles since. Forming part of a large collection, this Honda was used on a regular basis. The battery is flat although we have had the bike running and she appears to run well. Unfortunately the documentation has been misplaced and the new owner will need to apply for a V5 registration document.

Supplied with a V5 document.

1965 Ford Cortina Mk. I Transmission: manualMileage:3500The Cortina was Ford's mass-market compact car and sold extremely well. It was produced in five generations: the Mk. I through to the Mk. V, although officially the last one was called the Cortina 80. With variants of the Cortina reaching sales of over one million, each successive model proved more popular than its predecessor.  Such was its fame in the UK, that the BBC Two documentary series Arena once devoted an entire programme to the car and its enthusiasts. In response to the huge success of the Mini, Ford responded not with a small car but with a larger family offering which they could sell in large numbers.This example was registered new on 3rd September 1965 and has had just two owners from new. Acquired by the current vendor in 2006 who set about restoring the Cortina to fast road/track specification. During the restoration a Vulcan engineering 2100 pinto engine was fitted, coupled to a type 9 five-speed gearbox. The Cortina was also treated to a rack and pinion conversion, Ford Capri single leaf springs, a FR33 high lift Kent camshaft, new cambelt, new water pump and coil overs. Sitting proudly on Lotus Cortina 5.5J steel wheels, the bodyshell includes a well fitted roll cage and the interior includes a Lotus dashboard and clocks. Presented in blue and orange livery the Cortina looks superb and turns heads wherever it goes. A fun and rather quick example we are sure this example, in its fast road specification, will be huge amounts of fun for the new owner at a very modest outlay.

2005 Alfa Romeo 147 GTATransmission: manualMileage:39,7502005 Alfa Romeo 147 GTA: Launched in 2002 as the top of the range hatchback model for Alfa Romeo, the GTA is powered by the classic Busso 3.2 litre 24 valve V6. Said to produce some 247bhp it gave a top speed of circa 153mph. Characterised by wider arches, Teledial 17-inch alloys and a more aggressive grille design, most examples had six-speed manual transmission whilst a small number featured the Selespeed automated manual system. In total, 5,029 147 GTAs were built, 1,004 of which were Selespeeds. This original UK manual example is presented in metallic silver. It was first registered in March 2005 and has just three former keepers. Its most recent service was by  CG Motortech in Milton Keynes in Sept 2021. This  car comes with two keys and is fitted with a Clifford Alarm system, OZ Racing 19” Ultraleggera wheels and the seats are upgraded to OMP Strada reclining bucket seats. With the current mileage at just 39,750 miles and having had very few owners this is a great find.

2007 Subaru Impreza WRX STi Pro-DriveTransmission: manualMileage:72,600 The WRX (World Rally eXperimental) flat-four engine is turbocharged and develops around 235bhp in initial trim. Relatively modest by today’s standards but anything but in-period, and its lively engine is mated to a manual gearbox and a sophisticated four-wheel-drive system. A relatively lightweight car, it goes like stink and took the motoring world by storm. Rally win followed rally win - and the Brits wanted a piece of the action, importing both saloon and hatchback variants by the container load.  The second-generation cars, available from 2000, officially boasted between 261bhp and 276bhp depending on the model, enough to propel the 1,360kg Impreza to a top speed of over 150mph via a 0-62mph time of under five seconds.  Rallying legends such as Colin McRae and Richard Burns took the already potent Impreza STi and turned it into an iconic machine, the likes of which we will probably never see again. On a performance-per-pound basis they were extraordinarily cheap when they were new, and a series of upgrades and model changes that encouraged owners to change their cars more frequently than they might otherwise have done. Originally registered on 1st September 2007 this Impreza has been very well cared for. The silver coachwork is in very good order as is the black leather interior. The comprehensive history folder includes the certificate and invoice for the Prodrive Pack in 2007 when the car was only a month old. Also present in the history folder is every previous MoT certificate. A Cat 1 alarm system is fitted (with PIN) and this Subaru comes with the original handbooks and service book with 11 stamps, five of which are by Subaru main dealers. Coil over suspension and a performance exhaust system ensure this is a car that not only handles well but sounds superb. Supplied with a current V5 registration document, a current MoT test certificate valid until 10th April 2023 and two sets of keys. With only three former keepers, this very well-presented Subaru Impreza WRX STi is a great car to drive.

1993 Mini Moke Transmission: manualMileage:12947With the laudable intention of providing a lightweight scout vehicle for the British Army, BMC inadvertently created one of the swinging sixties most iconic vehicles. Who can forget those fringed and tasselled Mini Mokes driving around `The Village' carrying out duties such as taxi, ambulance, hearse, bomb-disposal vehicle and election campaign bus during episodes of The Prisoner. Lack of ground clearance made it ineffective as a military tool; yet the civilian version carved itself a niche as a cult mass-produced `beach buggy' for nations with hotter climes than Britain. Running gear was shared with the basic Mini, and initial production was at Cowley, before moving to Longbridge. Between 1964 and 1968, 14,500 Mokes were built in the UK, but only 10% stayed in Britain. 26,000 were made in Australia between 1966 and 1981. A further 10000 were built in Portugal from 1980 to 1993 when production ended. Portuguese production allowed the Moke to rationalise components with the then current Mini Mk. IV and included the fitment of disc brakes and 12 wheels. In a final ironic twist, Rover Group, as BMC had by then become, sold the Moke business to Cagiva for production in Italy, but the motorbike maker only built around 1,500 between 1990 and 1993.This lovely car offered here was one of the final Mini Mokes built. Purchased by a private collector, from Monaco in 2013 and brought to the UK. In his ownership it has received a complete repaint in the original colour white, the bespoke white leather upholstery with red piping and matching red seatbelts have been replaced, whilst being kept running and useable. The Moke is nicely equipped with a removable roll bar and weather gear, allowing for year-round use.This Mini Moke is supplied with the Monégasque registration document and the NOVA number to allow registration in the UK. Ideal for a summer residence or an eye-catching addition to any collection, this desirable Mini Moke remains one of the most fun ways to see and be seen, either here or on the Mediterranean coast.

1968 MG C Roadster Transmission: manualMileage:16321The MGC was the first 'high performance' version of the MGB. From early in the design stages of the MGB there was an intention to create high performance variants, using a range of Vee engines that did not make it to production. The MGC was much more than a tuned MGB, in fact it was a completely re-engineered car, but retained many visual connections to the MGB. On the outside the MGC was often mistaken for an MGB as the only visual difference was the heavily bulged bonnet with a transverse chrome strip that accentuated the bulges, and the standard use of 15” wheels instead of the 14” used on the MGB. Inside there were very few differences between the B and C, other than the 140mph speedometer and tachometer with a yellow and red banding, set against lower RPM than the MGB. One of just 1,403 home market supplied cars, this Mineral Blue example with overdrive gearbox was delivered to University Motors of Epsom in 1968 and then sold on to Mr. J. Edwards on 12th February of that year. Mr Edwards kept the car until the late 1980's, when it was purchased by a Mr. William Scholfield, who shared and enjoyed the car with his son until 2007. Reportedly only used on sunny days throughout Mr. Scholfield's ownership, it was however treated to running restoration work throughout the 1990's, with well regarded Oselli Engineering modifying the cylinder head for unleaded fuel and upgrading it to Stage 1 tune, along with upgrading the camshaft to aid with engine pickup. The bodywork was also repaired where required and resprayed by Falla Classics in Bournemouth in 1997. To aid in the drivability of the car, Oselli fitted a quick rack steering rack along with stiffer antiroll bar and telescopic dampers all round. A servo has also been fitted to aid braking. Amongst the many receipts in the car's history file are also included the car's original BMC 'Passport to Service' booklet which shows the service stamps for the first few years with University Motors, (and later receipts for more work carried out by them in the early 1980's), as well as a copy of the original green logbook. The vendor reports the car to run and drive extremely well and certainly presents very well and is a rare example of an MGC that has led a pampered life.Supplied with a UK V5C registration document, impressive history file, MoT test certificates dating back to the mid 1980s, owner's handbook and manual, along with a photographic record of its restoration, file of receipts and a current MoT test certificate valid until July 2023. Such a beautifully presented car, with such an impressive history file is hard to find, especially being one of the 1,403 UK supplied home market cars.

1965 MG B Roadster Transmission: manualMileage:87495The MGB was launched in May 1962 to replace the MGA and was introduced as a four-cylinder roadster with a coupé added in 1965. It was a relatively modern design at the time of its introduction, utilising a monocoque structure instead of the traditional 'body-on-frame' construction used on both the MGA and MG T-types. The lightweight design reduced manufacturing costs while adding to overall vehicle strength. Manual windows were standard and a comfortable driver's compartment offered plenty of legroom. The MGB's performance was considered brisk at the time of its introduction with a 0-60mph time of just over 11 seconds; this was aided by the relatively light weight of the car. Handling was one of the MGB's strong points. The three-bearing 1798cc, B-Series engine produced 95bhp at 5,400rpm with the engine upgraded in October 1964 to a five-bearing crankshaft to improve reliability. The MGB was one of the first cars to feature controlled crumple zones designed to protect the driver and passenger at a 30mph impact.This early, desirable, 'pull handle' restored MGB roadster with overdrive has been fully maintained until the car was taken off the road in 2005. Prior to going into hibernation this MG had substantial amounts of money spent on it. It received a restoration in 1988, when the engine was replaced with a genuine BMC 'Gold Seal' unit. In 2011 the car was recovered from the barn where it was being stored and sold as a sound restoration project. It went into storage until it was purchased again in 2017 and has spent the last five years undergoing a complete rebuild by an MG enthusiast. The engine has had the big end bearings replaced, new piston rings and the cylinder head overhauled. The gearbox was rebuilt by Hardy Engineering Transmissions Ltd. They also checked the overdrive unit and the rear differential. A new wiring loom was supplied and fitted and at the same time the polarity was changed from positive to negative earth. This lovely MGB roadster has been repainted in its original colour Tartan Red and has black leather interior. It is also supplied with a new hood and has a tonneau cover. In the history file are a large number of invoices going back to 1988, old MoT test certificates up to 2005, the V5 registration document, an old V5 and the Heritage Certificate. This represents an opportunity to purchase a car that will give the new owner good, reliable motoring in this popular marque.

2016 Rolls-Royce Wraith 'Inspired by Fashion' Transmission: manualMileage:17963Unveiled at the 2013 Geneva Motor Show, the Rolls-Royce Wraith is a luxury Grand Tourer based on the chassis of the Rolls-Royce Ghost. This new model shares its name with the 1938 model built by the original Rolls-Royce company. The body style is a two-door pillarless coupé where all side windows can roll down like a convertible.This delightful Wraith is finished in white with a contrasting red wrap and black alloy wheels and is complemented with a white and red interior created by 'Inspired by Fashion' and includes the desirable star light headliner. This limited edition is one of very few examples designed by 'Inspired by Fashion'.  A very stylish and imposing car which is synonymous of everything the Rolls-Royce marque stands for; power, grace, space and prestige all in one package. Open the door and the sumptuous interior and great ergonomics are obviously apparent. Sit in and drive the car and you enter a whole new world of luxury. Supplied with a history file containing the relevant books, old MoT records, a UK registration document, and a current MoT test certificate valid until June 2023. In excellent condition throughout, this Limited edition Rolls-Royce is very collectible indeed and looks superb. Ready to be enjoyed immediately by its new custodian.Interested parties should note that the current registration number is not included in the sale. An age related registration number will be allocated to the car.

1974 Lamborghini Espada Series III Transmission: manualMileage:19989The 1967 Geneva Motor Show event saw the unveiling of the sensational Lamborghini Marzal. A concept car which was seen as an approach to a four-seat Lamborghini. A forerunner for the successful distinct Espada. Named after a matador's sword, the Espada was styled along lines similar to those of the concept Marzal but carried a 4.0 litre V12 up front, first seen in the 400GT and Islero. Introduced in January 1970, the Series II cars came with an extra 25bhp, 155mph top speed, an improved dashboard layout and the option of power assisted steering. The dashboard was revised yet again in late 1972 for the Series III, which also incorporated power steering as standard, up-rated brakes, minor suspension improvements, and a restyled front grille. Espada production ceased in 1978 after 1,217 of these imposing cars had been built. Even today there are few cars that can match the on-road presence of the Espada.First registered new in South Africa on 1st June 1974, this remarkably original Espada found its way to the UK in 2014. Having not been subjected to the British climate for most of its life, the bodywork is incredibly solid. Unlike so many Espada's, this car retains many of the incredibly rare trim parts, so often lost or removed from cars. Parts like the bumpers, windscreen surrounds, rear screen rubber, steering wheel and fuse box cover have all survived and remain with the car. After the car's import to the UK, it was sent to the highly regarded Lamborghini expert Colin Clarke Engineering, who went through the car servicing and repairing whatever was required. £12,000 was spent with Colin Clarke in 2015 having this service, before having a further £4,350 spent in 2016 with SMDG Ferrari in Cranleigh. Another £660 was spent back with Colin Clarke in 2020 to have the car's carburettors set up and the engine tuned. The brakes were also rebuilt in 2020 by the then owner before the car was sold to the vendor, who has enjoyed it as part of his collection ever since. Indeed, these wonderful Lamborghini V12 engines sound fabulous when accelerating - so evocative!Supplied with a UK V5C registration document, owner's handbook, sales brochure and file of receipts. The guide price offers incredible value for money when compared to the cost of restoration and it is unusual to find an Espada that is both so solid and original. Presenting very well, this lovely Lamborghini is sure to turn heads wherever it goes.

1968 Morris Mini Cooper S Mk. II Transmission: manualMileage:31026The motoring correspondent of The Times reported in May 1963 the Mini while a popular second car in many households was no longer strictly the fashion, the Grande Luxe Mini de Ville by Radford had taken over. On test in London, he reported, it attracted more attention than a Ferrari Berlinetta with its special colour scheme and trim, sliding sunroof, radiator grille with two more recessed lights, special sound insulation and electric windows. The car tested by The Times also had white leather upholstery and deep lambswool carpets, tachometer, ammeter, oil gauge, clock, headlamp flasher and water temperature gauge. Further extras were: a laminated wood steering wheel, automatic red caution lights on open doors, a reading light, cigar lighter, twin-speaker radio and an air blower to demist the rear window. After the 1967 Earls Court Motor Show The Times recorded that Captains of Industry ordered them, painted them to match their Rolls-Royces and gave them to their wives. Pop Stars and West End playboys presumably invested in them as a status symbols. The reporter tested 'a typical Mini de Ville', a 1275 Mini-Cooper S with an engine performance pack providing up to about 110 m.p.h. Outwardly the only distinction was the magnesium alloy wheels, sunroof and non-standard paint. Inside absolutely everything seemed like a refugee from a Rolls-Royce.This exceptional 1968 Morris Mini Cooper S Mk. II has all the hallmarks of being a superb example built by Radford, but no records to prove this can be found. Purchased by a private collector in 2016 where it remained until now only covering 70 miles in this time, but still being fully maintained. The previous owner purchased the car around 2012 from a long-term owner who lived in Derby. Between his purchase and the car being sold in 2016 he sent it to marque specialists Paul Preston Classic Mini Restoration for repainting and restoring as necessary. Stripping the car down and removing the original paint, it was found that the body was sound and rust free, the coachbuilders work was to the highest 'Rolls-Royce' standards where the Mk. II body shell had been de-seemed and lead filled including the smoothed front panel. The car was repainted to the highest of standards in the original colour of maroon. Refitted the excellent bespoke cream and piped red, Connolly leather interior, the burr walnut dashboard with a full compliment of Smith gauges and felt roof lining, A and C pillar panels and Mota Lita wood rimmed steering wheel. Other Radford features include a Webasto folding sunroof and grill recessed Lucas spotlights. During this time the engine and gearbox were overhauled. This lovely Cooper S is supplied with a V5 registration document, the heritage certificate confirming that it is a matching numbers car and file with history.

1966 Ford Mustang FIA 'Notchback' Transmission: manualMileage:UK saloon racing in the 1960s was epitomised by the battles between the American V8s and the British Lotus Ford Cortinas and Austin Coopers of the day. They were driven, in the British Saloon Car Championship (pre-BTCC), by current Grand-Prix stars such as Jim Clark, Jack Brabham and Graham Hill, as well as saloon car specialists like Frank Gardener, Brian Muir, Sir Gawaine Bailie, Roy Pierpoint and Jack Sears. It was an exciting and evocative period of racing and the crowds enjoyed the closeness of the racing brought about by the contrasting abilities of the nimble Cortinas and Minis and the straight line speed of the V8s.Imported to the UK in 2010, this 1966 dry state Arizona sourced Mustang, was bought with the sole intention of being built into a top specification FIA race car. The car was stripped and then acid dipped to give a lightweight and ideal starting point. Built from the ground up by Any Yool, the car was purchased by the vendor in 2016 after the car had won its class at the 2015 Spa 6 hour race. Since then, the car has been subject to intense development with no stone left unturned. The supplied history file shows this development and the cost that comes with that, amounting to well over £150,000, excluding the cost of the car in 2016.Now only offered for sale to help fund a FIA TVR Griffith project, this ultimate specification FIA Mustang is available at a fraction of the cost to build a comparable car, with all of the development work having already carried out. No expense has been spared since the vendors ownership, with help coming first from V8 specialist Nigel Reuben Racing and more recently the legendary Alan Mann Racing team. In fact, Steve Soper recently took the car for a couple of laps of Donington on a test day and immediately managed a 1:22:82 lap in traffic, on only one flying lap. Given that his qualifying lap in April of this year in his own car, was only 3 tenths of a second quicker, shows the car definitely has the capability to compete for race wins. The specification of this car is truly impressive, boasting amongst other things; an Inconel exhaust system, (an extremely light and expensive metal used to make Formula 1 exhausts), Kenny Coleman EDA FIA specification engine, new rear axle, new gearbox, new Alan Mann custom dampers and new VBox Lite datalogger and video system along with its FIA technical passport valid through until the end of 2028. Such is the quality of the car that it was invited to race in the 2021 Pierpoint Cup at the Goodwood Members Meeting, where the vendor shared the car with racing legend Jochen Mass, (whose signature can be seen on the glove box).Supplied with a UK V5C registration document, file of receipts, FIA papers, Alan Mann set-up information folder and eight spare wheels. Road registered and wanting for nothing, this FIA Mustang presents an opportunity to acquire a fully developed car that is eligible for all the top events including Goodwood and Masters Series, amongst many others.

1969 Porsche 911E FIA Race Car Transmission: manualMileage:82764The original 911 series is often cited as the most successful competition car ever, especially when its variations are included; namely the powerful 911 derived 935 which won Le Mans as well as other major sports cars races. The original Porsche 911 with its famous and distinctive design was mechanically notable for being rear-engine and air-cooled. Production would run from Autumn 1963 until 1989. For the 1969 model-year 'B-series' 911, Porsche lengthened the wheelbase by 57mm and began manufacturing the engine cases in magnesium to save approximately 10kgs hung over the rear wheels and replaced the single battery with two smaller batteries mounted either side of the front compartment improving weight distribution throughout the car. They achieved their goal, improving the handling and increased performance with a new Bosch mechanical fuel injection system standard on the 911E and 911S models.Although first registered in July of 1970, this 911E was actually manufactured in 1969 and was supplied with the new Bosch mechanical fuel injection system. Built into a race car from the ground up over a four-year period from 2008 by highly regarded and renowned Porsche 911 specialist Steve Monk of Bodywerks, the car is a high-quality example with front running capability. The quality of Monk's work can be seen throughout the car, with his signature attention to detail ever present. The supplied FIA technical passport is valid for another six years until the end of 2028. Running on an original set of Fuchs alloy wheels, sprung by Bilstein dampers and mounted on Elephant solid bushes, this car is not the usual tired racer and is ready to win straight away. Last run at the Spa Summer Classic in July of this year, the car ran without fault and is now only for sale due to a home move. The supplied files show over £53,000 worth of receipts, which represent only part of the expenditure over the years. Parts and labour have only ever been supplied by the best including; Tuthill, Tognolla, Bob Watson, Tech 9 and of course, Steve Monk. The included rebuilt original engine maintains the cars 'matching numbers' status and still sports its MFI system, whilst the installed race engine runs on carburettors to FIA specification. The race engine was built to a high specification with Jonny Middleston cylinder heads, Kent race camshafts, lightened flywheel, 215mm clutch, billet conrods and competition pistons. Included in the file are also Dyno sheets, the most recent of which showing maximum engine power of 199.2bhp, (on the race engine).Supplied with a UK V5C registration document, file of receipts, FIA papers, photographic record of the build and the original rebuilt engine. A rare opportunity to own a road registered and very capable race car, built by the best, at a fraction of the price it would cost to build today.

1964 MG B Roadster Transmission: manualMileage:1968The MGB is a staple of everyday life. After launch in 1962, it went on to become one of Britain's best-selling and most loved sports cars, bringing stylish design, an exciting drive and everyday usability to thousands of drivers who were glad to switch from sensible saloons. Due to their popularity and reliability, the club support is excellent with many are still on the road especially as their fixed head cousins still very affordable. 'Safety Fast' was the slogan which summed up this well-balanced sports car, especially with front disc brakes as standard.This clean example has been restored but, thankfully, still carries some patina both externally and internally, indeed the interior has been beautifully prepared with the red leather seating and contrasting green piping matching well with the exterior paintwork and black double-duck soft top. The painted wire-wheels are in good condition as are indeed the tyres that surround them including the two-eared spinners that keep everything on. In 2016, this car was sent to Surrey Sports & Classics Limited, MG specialists, where it underwent a thorough restoration costing in excess of £18,000 with invoices to show. (The bonnet seems to have been in a hailstorm although, I'm informed, mobile 'paint-less dent repair services' exist. This will be attempted to rectify prior to the sale). The engine looks great and is reported to run well and. With a new 12-month MoT test certificate, this is to be offered here without reserve.

1995 Nissan Skyline GT R33 Transmission: manualMileage:16928 The R33 incarnation of the GT-R is still a pure sports car experience, but now aided by some of the most revolutionary handling technology to influence modern performance driving.The new R33 Skyline GT-R was launched in January 1995 with a base GT-R and the V Spec model which offered a sportier suspension set-up resulting in lower ground clearance, and also featured the newer ATTESA E-TS Pro all-wheel drive system, which included an Active Limited-Slip Differential.At the heart of the V-spec was the ATTESA-ETS Pro Electronic Torque Split System which, at the time, made it arguably the most technologically advanced production car in the world. The system was conceived in the 1990s for the JTCC to enable some 600bhp to be fed through the wheels and on to the racetrack efficiently. The V Spec also featured an active LSD on the rear axle which further aided traction by calculating the optimum torque-split between the left and right rear wheels, variable from fully locked to totally free. Working along with ATTESA-ETS PRO, is the SUPER HICAS rear-wheel steering. This uses a series of sensors to monitor vehicle motion, rate of turn and the driver's action on the steering wheel. Complex software then compares this information to the computer predictions of the car's ideal turning characteristics, adjusting the angle of the rear wheels to reflect the driver's intentions. The result of this type of technology? Neutral steering and unrivalled cornering capabilities.The engine in the R33 was nearly identical to the previous R32 using the same turbochargers and the same specification for the manual gearbox, although the synchros were made to be stronger.The increased body rigidity and improved handling potential necessitated several specially designed cross members being incorporated into the monocoque and extra torsion bars were added to the multi-link suspension to further enhance stability. Working closely with Bridgestone technicians to perfect the Potenza tyres, Nissan put the prototype R33 GT-R through its paces in all weathers at the notorious Nürburgring, earning them a daring reputation amongst other manufacturers. To equalise front/rear weight distribution, the bonnet and front wings were made of aluminium instead of steel and the battery was fitted at the base of the car's boot, lowering the centre of gravity and further improving handling. The braking system was designed by Italy's famous Brembo Spa, suppliers to many of the world's Formula 1 teams at this time. Four-piston calipers were fitted on the front with two-piston calipers on the rear to bite into the discs with a diamond shaped ventilation bores which increased the surface area to aid heat dissipation.This, Japanese imported, superb example of the fearsome Skyline is presented in Midnight Purple with grey/blue cloth interior. It is powered by the mighty 2.5 six cylinder turbocharged engine. Inside the Skyline GT-R, form followed function. Mono-form bucket seats with integrated headrests that are lightweight yet immensely tough provide the ideal driving position and supported the body against the G-forces endured under hard acceleration and cornering. The car comes with a full service history and has recently had its timing belt and auxiliary belts changed as well as having new wheels and tyres fitted also. Since being imported from Japan in 1999, the car has only had one UK owner and has been beautifully kept in this time having been dry stored with air conditioning, from then until today. This Skyline is in superb condition throughout and will come to auction with a new MoT. A true  'Wolf in sheep's clothing'! The odometer is in kilometers but translated it reads 16,928 miles. To note, the same model has just been sold in the USA for circa £175,000.

2009 Volkswagen Golf GTi 'Pirelli' DSG Transmission: automaticMileage:55712The Volkswagen Golf Mk. 5 was the fifth generation of the Volkswagen Golf and the successor to the Mk. 4. 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.This lovely, limited edition 'Pirelli' Mk 5 GTi is presented in black, with black leather/Alcantara interior with yellow stitching, and bearing the eponymous Pirelli design in the centre of the seats which looks superb. It comes with a full history with all books present, two keys, power steering, climate control, cruise control, electric windows and electric folding mirrors. It is also fitted with the desirable six speed automatic DSG gearbox. It was last serviced 4000 miles ago in Japan and is in very good condition throughout.

1989 Mercedes-Benz 190E 2.5 16V CosworthTransmission: manualMileage:90,500In 1983, Mercedes-Benz introduced the Cosworth 2.3 16V into their range and the new cars were substantially different from the other 190 models. The body kit reduced the drag coefficient and the steering wheel was smaller than that on other 190s, whilst the fuel tank was enlarged to 70 litres. The Getrag five-speed, manual gearbox was unique to the 16 valve and featured a 'dog-leg' first gear. An enlarged 2.5 litre engine replaced the 2.3 in 1988 and offered double-row timing chains to fix the unreliable single chains on the early 2.3s. The power output was up by 17bhp with a slight increase in torque. It is debated whether the 2.5 engine was developed and built by Mercedes-Benz or by Cosworth … Interestingly, they were not keen to broadcast the fact that their most sporting saloon car had an engine developed by a British company. The suspension on the 16 valve models is very different from the standard 190 and as well as being lower and stiffer, it has larger anti-roll bars, harder bushes and hydraulic self-levelling suspension on the rear allowing the rear ride-height to remain constant even when the car is fully loaded.Presented in Smoke Silver with contrasting Black leather interior, this example features the desirable manual gearbox. Recommissioned in 2021 following a decade in storage, this Mercedes-Benz had £6,288 spent on it including a new battery, fuel distributor, clutch master / slave cylinders, spark plugs, injectors and brake calipers etc. In addition, the self-levelling rear suspension was fettled and the engine tuned. Currently showing some 90,500 miles, this impressive 190E boasts the original tool kit, spare wheel, owner’s manual, service booklet (the latter carrying sixteen stamps) and old MOT certificates from 1999-2011 in a large history file. Offered with an MOT Valid until 09 March 2023 a real wolf in sheep’s clothing.*Interested parties should note that the current registration does not come with the car and that a new one will be issued.Interested parties please note that this Lot is not sold with its most recent V5C however this has been applied for and will arrive in due course; we will forward this onto the successful bidder.  

2005 Mercedes-Benz McLaren SLR Coupe Transmission: automaticMileage:3357The SLR McLaren, introduced in November 2003, was Mercedes-Benz's foray into the world of the supercar, alongside such cars as the Porsche Carrera GT and the Ferrari Enzo. It was developed in collaboration with the McLaren Technology Centre which, at the time, was partially owned by Mercedes-Benz. While Ferrari and Porsche pursued creating the best all-out supercars that the world had ever seen, Mercedes-Benz and McLaren attempted to create a car that coupled the best aspects of supercars with that of grand tourers. Engineers at Mercedes-Benz and McLaren took care to place the V8 as far back as possible in the chassis in order to improve the car's handling, giving the SLR near-perfect weight distribution. The SLR's engine produces 617bhp at 6,500rpm, thanks to a Lysholm-type twin-screw supercharger. A dash from 0-60mph took 3.8 seconds and the car leads to a quarter mile in just over 11 seconds with a top speed of 206mph. Its AMG Speedshift R transmission provides three manual modes to suit the owner's style of driving. Other remarkable technical features include the Sensotronic 'brake by wire' system, carbon-ceramic disc brakes and an automatic airbrake which can bring the SLR to a screeching halt from 120mph to a dead stop in less than 240 feet.This Mercedes-Benz SLR was manufactured in 2005 and presented in silver, typically synonymous with the Silver Arrows. This low mileage McLaren is in a condition commensurate with such few miles on the clock. The cockpit area of a SLR is a thing of beauty and to drive such a car is a memorable experience. The ultra-comfortable sports seats and luxurious interior are finished in black leather complementing the striking silver exterior. The SLR Coupé is a very versatile vehicle, comfortable to drive at 30mph, yet simply stunning to drive at high speed. The fabulous engine fires up at the press of a button on the gear lever which is reminiscent of a 'jet fighter' and drives with no known faults. Built in the UK and then shipped to the U.A.E, this SLR was then imported back to the UK in 2012 to our private owner.Recently MoT tested with a UK V5C registration document, this is truly a collectable example with circa 2,085 miles from new. Whether you are driving to your local restaurant or to the South of France, there can be few more exciting ways to travel than a Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren.

2011 Piaggio Vespa PX125 Transmission: manualMileage:13136The Vespa has evolved from a single model motor scooter manufactured in 1946 by Piaggio & Co. of Pontedera, Italy. Designed by Renzo Spolti and Vittorio Casini and known as the MP5 (Moto Piaggio no.5). From its inception the Vespa scooter has been known for its painted, pressed steel unibody, which combines a complete cowling for the engine, a flat floorboard and a prominent front fairing. Upon seeing this new design for the first time, Enrico Piaggio exclaimed 'Sembra una Vespa!' (It resembles a wasp). The new scooter had been named. This iconic design has featured in displays at the Guggenheim in New York and the Pompidou centre in Paris.This scooter evokes the heady, sharp suited days of the 60's Mod era. This scooter has been wrapped to give a chrome effect and fitted with the mirrors and flag detailing of a classic Brighton cruiser. Purchased by a private collector in 2018, it has driven one mile since, but has been maintained 'in house' and we are informed that it starts and runs well.We believe that this Vespa featured in Episode Two of the first series of the Simon Callow television drama, The Rebel. We are advised by the HPI check that this scooter is listed as a category C insurance loss and is supplied with a V5 registration document. There is no better way to take a trip down memory lane than on this modern version of a motoring and design icon.

2003 Porsche 911/996 Carrera Targa Transmission: manualMileage:107622The 996 is the internal designation for the 911 model manufactured from 1997 until 2006. It was replaced by the 997 in 2004. The 996 had little in common with its predecessor, with the first all new chassis platform since the original 911 and a new water-cooled engine. Technically, it was a major change, a complete breakthrough from the original car other than the overall layout.  At its debut, the 996 featured the most significant change from the classic 911 series: a water-cooled engine replacing the previously air-cooled engine. Progressively stringent emissions and noise regulations, environmental concerns, a higher expectation for refinement and the need for a high-performance four valve per cylinder engine made the switch necessary. Other major changes include a completely new platform having a sleeker body with a more raked windshield, and a re-designed interior along with new 'fried egg' shaped headlamps instead of previous 'bug eye' headlamps. This example of the 996 Carrera Targa is both owned and the daily driver of the proprietor of Porsche Specialists Porsche Torque. As such this car has been maintained regardless of cost and fastidiously since he purchased from one of his customers in early 2019. Originally registered March 2003, this car boasts just four former keepers. From new, the 996 was optioned with Bose sound system, Carrera wheels, PSM, Telephone Module and Parking Assistance - this equates to £3,258 of extras to the original list price of £61,550. In our vendor's stewardship the car has been serviced annually, most recently in August this year. It has had new rads and condensers, new shock absorbers and suspension mounts all round including uprated suspension and a sports exhaust. Treated to a new MoT certificate, what better 911 to buy than the personal car of a specialist who knows of all and any possible requirements for the iconic sports car.

1979 Renault 5 Gordini Mk. ITransmission: manual The Renault 5 Alpine was one of the first hot-hatches, launched in 1976 - going on sale two months before the original Volkswagen Golf GTI. The right-hand drive version was shown at the British Motor Show in 1978 and was officially on sale from 4 April 1979 in the UK and was sold as the Renault 5 Gordini because Chrysler Europe already had the rights to the name "Alpine" in the UK. UK launch price was £4149, nearly a third more than the previous top model the TS at £3187, showing the considerable changes to the car over the 64PS TS which could not reach 100 mph compared to the 93PS Gordini which could reach 110 mph. The 1.4 L OHV engine, mated to a five-speed gearbox, was based on the Renault "Sierra" pushrod engine, but having a crossflow cylinder head with hemispherical combustion chambers and developed 92 hp, twice as much as a standard 1108 cc Renault 5. The larger engine and its various performance parts meant that the spare wheel could no longer fit there and was relocated to the boot/trunk. The Alpine could be identified by special alloy wheels and front fog lights and was equipped with stiffened suspension, but still retaining the torsion bar at the rear with added anti-roll bars. Renault quoted a top speed of 110 mph and tested in the July 1979 issue of UK magazine CAR, it achieved a 0-60 mph in 9.7 seconds.First registered 8th August 1979, this rare Silver Mk I Gordini is likely one of the earliest examples of a Mk I still in existence in the UK. Purchased in 2015 complete and as a good runner it was owned by two brothers who took great pride in their cars and loved this 5 dearly. They maintained the car- which could outperform a turbo car in certain situations- impeccably. The seats are very rare, in the original fabric and in fantastic condition, having spent much of their lives having been protected by special seat covers made to protect them and complement the original interior. As with all old Renault 5s it had some bodywork imperfections, therefore our vendor decided to sympathetically restore it, and spent many hours of the restoration determined to keep this car as original as possible- including a sympathetic respray. The decals have been reproduced from originals, wheels have been refurbished and diamond cut, new tyres fitted and it presents as a time warp example. Having been in storage since the restoration was completed and not driven on the road since, it is therefore stunning; but with this in mind, the car would benefit from a check over before it was driven on the road in anger. Simply put, find another… and then find another in this condition with thousands spent in a sympathetic restoration. A true collectors dream and incredibly rare on these shores. Why waste your time with a Mini, when you could have Gordini?Restored sympatheticallyIncredibly rare UK supplied Mk I

1975 Range Rover ‘Suffix D’Transmission: Manual Right from the beginning, the Range Rover represented something of a lifestyle movement. Although considered rudimentary by today’s standards, the ‘Suffix A’ was billed as a ‘Four-In-One’ car. It was a luxury car, a performance car, an estate and, of course, a cross-country car. They were launched with the ubiquitous Rover V8 engine which delivered 135bhp but, more importantly, 185lb/ft of torque. Various improvements were made through the suffixes (A-F) with the 1976 suffix D benefitting from improved carburettors, interior lighting in the headlining and more luxurious carpeting on the transmission tunnel. This ‘D’ suffix two-door Range Rover was delivered new to its new owner through Crabtree and Nicol Ltd of Doncaster in January 1975.  This spectacular example has recently undergone a total 1,000+ hour, nut and bolt restoration costing in excess of £70,000. The running gear has been stripped and rebuilt using new parts as required. Fitted with up rated springs and shock absorbers, an electronic ignition and SU carburettors. The bodywork has been stripped, repaired, or replaced as found necessary and the interior has been fully retrimmed and restored to near original specification. The bodywork is painted in its original colour of Masai Red and is finished to a very high standard. The body frame, panels and chassis have been fully treated with anti-corrosion coatings to further extend the service life of this wonderful car. The vehicle is now absolutely superb, representing all that it became famous for when first manufactured. These were undoubtedly the best 4X4 produced, creating a vehicle where the occupants felt at home on a farm, in a field, or indeed heading out for a night out! Fully restored Range Rovers such as this come with a significant waiting list and are highly sought after, and this superb one in Masai Red is available to be driven away now -although we should note having only covered 7 miles on the road since its completion, this vehicle will require running-in-… It is surely a wonderful investment which could be either kept as part of a collection or used as daily mode of transport.Incredible full ‘nut and bolt’ restored exampleCirca £70,000 restoration billOriginal matching numbers Suffix D  

2018 Porsche 911 / 991 GT3 TouringThe seventh generation of Porsche's perennial 911 sports car was designated 'Type 991', succeeding the Type 997. Introduced at the Frankfurt Motor Show in September 2011, the Type 991 is only the third all-new platform for the 911 since the original of 1963, the second being the Type 996 of 1999. Porsche's signature 'flat-six' engine was available in three different capacities in the Type 991 (3.4-liters, 3.8-liters, and 4.0-liters) with power outputs ranging from the entry-level Carrera's 345bhp up to the Turbo S's 552 horsepower. Following its established practice, Porsche also offered Cabriolet, Targa, GT3 and GT3 RS variants to cater for all customer demands ranging from soft-top boulevard cruiser to track-day assault weapon. In September 2015, the Type 991 was introduced in revised and restyled form for the 2016 model year, becoming the '991.2' in factory parlance. To the concern of some traditionalists, turbo-charged engines were now standardised throughout the range. The purists did not have to wait long for their concerns to be assuaged, as in March 2016 at the Geneva Motor Show Porsche unveiled the limited edition 911 R, featuring the 'old' GT3 RS's normally aspirated 4.0-litre 493bhp engine and a new six-speed manual gearbox. Extensive changes were made to the engine allowing a 9,000 rpm redline from the 4.0-liter flat-six engine. Porsche's focus was on reducing internal friction to improve throttle response. The 991.2 GT3 brought back the choice between a manual transmission or PDK dual clutch transmission. A Touring version was also introduced which came standard with the comfort package and the manual transmission along with the deletion of the fixed rear wing and employing an electronically operated rear wing instead.This UK registered example presented in Fashion Grey offers an incredible 588 miles from new. Presented as new in the rarer Touring specification, this example is in collector condition and very desirable.Incredible low mileage exampleDesirable, 6-speed manual shift, high-performance 4.0-Liter 991.2 GT3

1987 Mercedes-Benz 300 SL Transmission: automaticMileage:20994The Mercedes-Benz R107 SL model was launched in 1971 and continued a tradition of two-door sports tourers from the world famous German manufacturer that dates back to 1954. The car featured a two-door monocoque bodyshell with independent all-round suspension. The success and popularity of the model is borne out by the 237,287 units that were produced during the cars impressive 18 year build run. This stunning example of the facelift 300 SL is presented in Ivory with beige MB Tex trim, Mercedes-Benz's extremely durable alternative to leather, and looks new. This example recently inspected by the SLSHOP was supplied new with optional extras including electric windows, rear seats, paint work protection, heat insulating glass and a contrasting dark brown hood. Boasting just three owners from new and a low mileage of just 60,000. Within the original wallet we find the owner's manual and 11 service stamps coupled with invoices throughout the 1990s and 2000s. The 300 with its 3.0 litre straight-six engine has long been seen to be the best combination of power and drivability for the R107, and this example comes with the added comfort of being inspected and maintained by the country's leading Mercedes-Benz SL specialist. A unique, low mileage example with years of enjoyment potential. A fine machine in all round excellent condition. 

1966 Ford Mustang Fastback Transmission: manualMileage:78424The Ford Mustang was the brainchild of Lee Lacocca and was branded as the first 'Pony Car', borne out of a need to compete with the flood of European sports cars coming into the USA in the sixties. The first production Mustang rolled off the assembly line in Dearborn, Michigan on 9th March 1964 and was introduced to the public at the New York World's Fair on 17th April 1964.Registered new in 1966, this superb looking example has more recently been imported to the UK in 2019. Since being imported the Mustang has been part of a private classic car collection where it has been treated to an extensive restoration. The coachwork was completely stripped and repainted and the interior was renewed. The engine was also fully inspected, and a comprehensive top end engine rebuild was completed, as such the Mustang presents in excellent condition and drives very well indeed. Fitted with desirable upgrades including an aluminium radiator and disc brakes at the front, the vendor reports the Mustang sounds fantastic when on song and drives very well indeed! One of the best we have seen, the Fastback is offered with a history file documenting the restoration, various sundry invoices, and the current UK registration document. We are sure it will be keenly contested at auction.

1933 Pierce Arrow 836 Club Brougham Two-Door Coupé Transmission: manualMileage:56300While the Pierce-Arrow became one of the most prestigious automobiles available, their beginnings were humble. Bicycles first, as with many firms of note, but by the turn of the century, steam cars broke through using De Dion engines. The cars became bigger and moved over to the internal combustion engine culminating in the Great Arrow that helped gain Pierce its reputation by winning the first five Glidden Tours, a reliability trial of 1,100 miles whilst still aiming firmly at the wealthy end of the marketplace. President Taft was the first US President to use one for official occasions with Roosevelt following the trend and many more to come.Throughout WWI, the Pierce-Arrow commercial line was busy turning out two and five-ton trucks ordered in their hundreds by both the French and English governments. Post-war, production resumed although the attention to detail remained the same. Controlling interest of the Pierce-Arrow Motor Car Company was then purchased by the Studebaker Corporation in 1928. While the two companies maintained independent, Pierce-Arrow's future was now influenced by its new major stockholder.Registered in 1933 and built in Buffalo, USA, this 836 two-door Club Brougham, the name taken from Lord Brougham-designed horse-driven coach. With just four owners throughout its 89 years, all of which have been traced throughout its extensive history file, its long-term membership of the Pierce Arrow Society has been recorded over time, a club famous for its meticulous database of cars and their owners.The car's 56,300 recorded mileage is documented and correct and the overall condition is exceptional with numerous wins at various car shows. Power comes from a flat-head, straight eight-cylinder engine with a two-stage carburettor an advanced & retarred choke with a three-speed manual gearbox and freewheel. This can also just the use of the clutch on first gear only if required and benefits from a four-wheel parking brake. An enlarged carburettor has been fitted allowing the engine to run good and cool alongside a new starter motor and refurbished gearbox and examination of clutch. The carburettor has been overhauled with work carried out by specialists, Overton's.This hugely elegant and imposing American classic sits on brand new whitewall tyres with the steering, linkage and each wheel professionally balanced. A damper has been fitted to the steering wheel and the electrics are now operated by twin six-volt Optima batteries with an isolation switch and charging points for maintenance trickle chargers. The original exhausts have also been copied and replaced by stainless steel items. I'm sure the vendor would not my saying this but the owner is a perfectionist and has even had the vulnerable Pierce Arrow mascot restored to first class condition with the bow and arrow rebuilt in solid silver.Owned for over 12 years and after a recent 600-mile tour of Norfolk and Suffolk with no issue, the owner will certainly be sorry to see her go.(Music with thanks to Audionautix)

2015 Evanta Barchetta Transmission: manualMileage:3751There will be multiple aesthetic signals firing at you thick and fast as the first gaze upon the Evanta Barchetta. Drink it in. It is achingly beautiful, especially in this colour scheme, and is reminiscent of a number of different 50s sports racing cars of the period. Ferrari, Aston Martin Zagato's, Maserati and the Browns Lane competition Jaguars to name but a few.The short-lived British Evanta Motor Company was the brainchild of Ant Anstead, a hugely knowledgeable gentleman with the foresight to be able to visualise something so glorious. The composite Kevlar body envelopes a truly frightening Chevrolet 6.2 litre LS3 engine pushing out over 450bhp. Mr. Anstead, the anchor-man from tv's 'For the Love of Cars', did not just focus on the aesthetics. They followed through with fully adjustable suspension, bias adjustable disc brakes all round, full stainless 16 wire wheels, bespoke cooling and fuel systems, modern ECU power, plus leather and Alcantara trim. Offered with deep rich burgundy paintwork and complementary Oxblood Red leather interior, it can only really be described as faultless. Not content with the exterior design and the technical thought that has gone through this project, the cockpit is all handmade leather, quilted transmission tunnel and doorcards with the icing on the cake, a machine-turned aluminium steering wheel boss and wood-rimmed steering wheel. With a full one year MoT test certificate, it would appear that the chassis number shows this to be the very first one made.A 'visualisation' was created by Gun Hill Studios and can be seen here..https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r8A7ffSTxRcWhat a rarity, what a treat!Interested parties should note that the current registration does not come with the car and that a new one will be issued.

1968 Aston Martin DBS (Six-cylinder) Transmission: manualMileage:84426Following on from the DB6, the DBS was initially conceived as a limited production, fast two-seater and prepared to accommodate the new Tadek Marek-designed V8 engine. The DBS evolved throughout its development cycle to include deeper spoilers and better ventilation. The 'four-headlight' DBS has become highly valued and a very early manual car, such as this, is one of the most sought-after versions, appreciated as both collectible and eminently useable on an everyday basis. It has certain important and unique features, lost in later models, such as the wood panel dash and the distinctive 'three flutes' behind the rear windows, both of which make the car more attractive than the later cars.The AML build sheet indicates that it was a factory demonstrator from October 1968 until December that year when documents detail transfer to the second owner, a Mr. Vickers of London. Little history exists of its early life until 1992 when it was discovered standing in a barn for 10 years, with the engine head off, awaiting attention. It was subsequently sent to a restorer in Hailsham, East Sussex where the car was dismantled but re-assembly never took place, although the engine appeared to be in one piece. It was a full eight years later that, at the owner's request, Aston Martin Specialists, Newlands Motors, collected the car from Hailsham in late 2000 and set about restoring the car. They fully expected to have to work on the engine, but running it up after re-assembly, the pressures and functions were 100%. There was a brief couple of years of intermittent usage before the car was returned to storage for another four years until the current owner who asked Newlands Motors to recommission the car resulting in an invoice of nearly £8,500.It was in 2010, that Aston Martin specialists Byron International, were asked to market the car on behalf of the owner and it quickly found a new home with an enthusiast in France. There it has remained for the past 10 years, enjoyed and used sparingly. Making the decision to part company with the car did not stop the owner in ensuring the mechanical elements were in tiptop condition, replacing gaskets and servicing the car as late as December last year.From 2000-2012, Newlands Motors have been servicing it regularly and comprehensively and from 2013, there were a number of different specialists until 2015 when it arrived at RS Williams albeit briefly. Aston Workshops in 2017, then various others, including RS Williams, for sundry servicing. Latterly AES, specialist Aston Martin engineers in Leiston but more importantly, since February 2021, it has been looked after by Vantage Engineering in West Sussex, a highly recommended firm, for its preparation for sale. With its predecessors, the DB4, DB5, and DB6, still commanding huge premiums on the current value of a DBS for cars of similar condition, this represents an excellent opportunity to acquire a six-cylinder Aston Martin from the hand built era of the marque.Whilst this lot is currently registered in France, it has now been imported to the UK and a NOVA certificate issued to register the car once again in the UK. It is now expected that the previous UK registration number will be reassigned.

1983 Opel Manta Transmission: manualMileage:40240Opel released the Manta A, back in 1970, as a competitor to the Ford Capri. Equipped with either a 1.6 or 1.9 litre CIH, (Cam In Head built by General Motors), and fitted with either a four-speed manual or three-speed automatic, the Manta became known as one of the best handling cars in its class. This also proved well in the world of rallying, where it had great success in both Europe and the United States. In 1975, the Manta B was launched, which was basically a redesigned Opel Ascona, but with more sporty styling, similar to the UK equivalent of the Ascona, the Mk.1 Cavalier sports hatch. The next major update came in 1982 when the Manta received the updated 1.8 litre engine, like the one we have here. This engine was more economical and could also use unleaded fuel. This proved very popular and was used up until the end of the production run of the Manta.This very nice example is presented in silver with grey interior. The owner carried out some welding to the subframe last year, of which the invoice can be seen in the history file, and the engine was serviced earlier this year. The history file also contains a sale brochure for the model old MoT test certificates and various other invoices. Please note that this car suffered some damage in December 1999 and was deemed a Category D Insurance loss. According to the HPI it states the vehicle was damaged but repairable and the insurer decided not to repair. The car has been taxed and has had an MoT since and is currently insured and taxed and on the road.

1998 Mini Cooper Transmission: manualMileage:70725Launched in 1996 the Mk. VII was the final version of the classic shaped Mini. The car was now fitted with twin point injection with front-mounted radiator, a full-width dashboard replaced the original shelf, internal bonnet release and the Introduction of an airbag on the driver's side. The basic Mini was the 1.3i, the other model in the range being the Mini Cooper. The end of production in October 2000 not only signalled the end of original Mini production after 41 years, but also brought about the demise of the 1275-cc engine which had powered the Mini and numerous other BL/BMC/ARG cars for more than 35 years. The Metro had ceased production two and a half years earlier, ironically meaning the Mini outlived the car that was supposed to replace it.This impressive Cooper edition was supplied new to Japan in 1998.This 1275 Mini has been well looked after and is described by the vendor as '10/10 in every regard'. Presenting in white with a contrasting black roof, black wheel arches and fitted with driving lamps, this iconic car certainly looks the part. The interior is fitted with leather seats, a new one-piece red carpet, a bespoke carbon fibre dashboard and door finishers and air conditioning. We are also informed that the looks are complemented by the drive of this car which has benefitted from a new gearbox, new clutch, new wheels and tyres, adjustable shock absorbers and a recent service. Offered without reserve this Mini would grace any collection.

1960 Jaguar Mk.II Saloon Transmission: manualMileage:71633The Jaguar Mk. II was a medium size saloon built from 1959 to 1967 as a successor to the 2.4 and 3.4 Mk. I models. The Mk. II was handsome, powerful and a 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, making a good car even better.  Similar in appearance, but with a bigger glass area, the Mk. II boasted a wider track to improve road holding, together with minor front suspension changes to reduce body roll, and the new Dunlop disc brakes fitted 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, therefore the Mk. II 3.8 litre has enjoyed great success on the track and can still be a very competitive historic race car.This 1960 Jaguar Mk. II 3.8 litre was purchased by the current owner in 1995 as a restoration project. After many months of stripping down then removing all the paint and filler, he set about rebuilding the body shell. The vendor then carried out any repairs as necessary and fitted four new original Jaguar doors and metal rear wheel spats. The original colour was changed from grey to Old English White, the reassembly was started and mechanicals refitted. In the late 1990s work stopped and it went into storage, then twelve years ago it was taken to well-known classic Jaguar specialists based in Maidenhead who finished the assembly. They refitted the new red leather interior, adding to all the re-chromed bumpers and window frames etc. When new the car was supplied with an automatic gearbox which at some point has been replaced with a manual gearbox with overdrive, which was overhauled in 2013. Around the same time the engine was taken out again and completely rebuilt. When it was removed it was discovered that the 3.8 engine had been replaced with a 3.4 litre unit from a later Jaguar S-Type. The car has been fitted with electric power steering replacing the original fluid system. In 2020 the rear axle was removed and completely rebuilt, and at the same time it was fitted with new chrome wire wheels and tyres. This Jaguar Mk. II is supplied with a V5 registration document and a very large file containing information, invoices and some photographs of the restoration. This is a very good reliable example, perfect for historic rallies, Bicester Scrambles or just touring.

1971 Triumph Stag Transmission: manualMileage:55000Launched in 1970, the Triumph Stag was a luxury grand tourer. Envisioned as a luxury sports car, it was designed to compete directly with the Mercedes-Benz SL class models. All Stags were four-seater convertible coupés. However, for structural rigidity and to meet new American rollover standards at the time, the Stag required a B-pillar 'roll bar' hoop connected to the windscreen frame by a T-bar. A new 2.5 litre V8 designed and developed by Triumph's Harry Webster was later enlarged to 2,997cc. Most Stags were fitted with a Borg Warner automatic gearbox, although manual gearboxes with overdrive were available. Electric windows, power steering and power-assisted brakes were fitted as standard.This example was first registered 5th November 1971. Presented in white with black trim, it features the desirable manual gearbox with overdrive and that unmistakable V8 growl. Owned by our vendor for the past six years, this handsome convertible has benefitted from ample care and attention during his tenure. Works completed include a new hood and frame, carpets and front seats, refurbished body work; specifically, a new wing, arches, sills and a full respray.  Described as a ”œgreat usable Stag”, with matching numbers engine, it also boasts an original 55,000 miles on the clock. Other recent upgrades include a rebuilt suspension including: all new polybush mounts, new clutch, tyres and a new replacement wooden dash. The manual with overdrive gearbox has been reconditioned, and the V8 triumph engine stripped and rebuilt, with the vendor stating that it holds good compression. The SU carburettors have also been refurbished and a new stainless-steel exhaust fitted to complement that fantastic V8 sound. Offered with a good history file, this is a well-priced example of the 70s icon. 

1988 Ford Fiesta XR2 Transmission: manualMileage:49917This Ford Fiesta was the second generation of the Fiesta supermini built by Ford Europe. Originally introduced in 1983, it was a mild facelift of the original car, with some re-engineering to accept an expanded range of engines and it was available in 3-door hatchback and panel van styles.Arguably the most desirable of the Fiesta line up was the XR2. This is certainly the case with the car here on offer. A low mileage example with lots of history, this XR2 was subject to a complete bare metal restoration. A total of three months was spent on a body jig and all new panels were fitted where required and then resprayed in original white.  The car was completely refitted at Rindt Vehicle Design with suspension and brakes enjoying a total overhaul. The result is this stunning, rust-free car that can be enjoyed for years to come. The vendor informs us that prior to the auction this stunning Ford will be serviced and given a year's MOT.

1986 Jeep CJ7 Transmission: manualMileage:51339The Willys Jeep (later Kaiser Jeep or AMC Jeep) is the civilian version of the Willys military Jeep of World War II.  The first Willys CJ prototype (the CJ-2) was introduced in 1944 and the same basic vehicle remained in production through seven variants and three corporate parents through 1986 when production of the Jeep model was officially ended. The Jeep CJ-7 and Jeep CJ-8 were replaced in 1986 by the similar-looking Jeep Wrangler. The Jeep CJ-7 featured a wheelbase 10 longer than that of the CJ-5 and lacked its trademark rear curve of the door cut-outs. To help improve vehicle handling and stability, the rear section of the chassis stepped out to allow the springs and shock absorbers to be mounted closer to the outside of the body.Presented in blue with grey trim,  this late UK supplied 1986 CJ-7 was one of the last built. According to the previous owner,  this is a Renegade specification example which was initially restored prior to the present owner purchasing it in 1998. Sitting on two inch wider than stock arch extensions and Sahara deep dish wheels with new BFG mud terrain tyres and raised Rancho shocks. In 2008 our vendor purchased an AC 5.0 litre V8 engine to replace the 4.2 litre and spent circa £9,000 with AC Automotive having it rebuilt and installed it with all new pistons, a Holly injection system costing £2,400 and a further £2,000 spent on a custom stainless steel exhaust system  and a new radiator. The vendor then decided to have the car taken back to bare metal and repainted in an original Jeep colour - a further £3,500! Recently new seats and half doors have been supplied and fitted from the US and an occasional soft top is supplied, the hard top is available but is unrestored without glass. Currently showing 51,339 however,  the new engine was fitted at 36,000 miles (just 15,000 miles since engine rebuild).   A comprehensive history file accompanies the car and MoT test certificates dating  back to 1998 with a declaration from the purchase in 1998 from the previous owner. A good example of the CJ-7 which is becoming ever more popular and a perfect summer toy to enjoy.

1937 Ford Popular 103E Transmission: manualMileage:Rather than ditch the pre-war designed cars altogether, the brains at Ford decided that they still needed a cut-price new car offering to undercut the boxy 100E. It was a simple set-up, much of the chrome disappeared, the dashboard, as a Bakelite unit, also went and it became, because of its now much reduced price, highly desirable.  Today the Ford 103E, as with all the small sidevalve Fords, continues to be a sound choice for classic car ownership. Spares are still readily available from various marque specialists, and its reliability is legendary.This charming example has been in the same ownership for 27 years and has been maintained very well throughout this time. In very good condition, it comes complete with various sundry invoices, old registration documents, previous MoT test certificates and the current UK registration document. An affordable and extremely useable classic, this example which is offered at no reserve, should be keenly contested at auction.

1970 Morris 1100 Mk. II Transmission: manualMileage:83500In 1962, a quite revolutionary new saloon was launched by BMC. With the codename ADO16 this new car was hot from the drawing boards of Alec Issigonis, who set out to design a larger and more sophisticated car which incorporated more advanced features and innovations, and the world famous Italian design house Pininfarina. Offered in many guises by Innocenti, Morris, Riley, Wolseley, Vanden Plas and Austin, the ADO16 was truly universal in its appeal. In line with BMC's policy at the time, Austin badged versions of the ADO16 were built at Longbridge, whilst Morris and MG versions were assembled at Cowley. This 1970 Morris 1100 Mk. II Four-Door Saloon presents well in Teal Blue with black upholstery. A very well cared for Morris 1100 that is an ideal starter classic. Charming in both presentation and performance the car is described by the vendor as a delight to drive. The paintwork is still very bright and the upholstery is unmarked and in great order. The navy carpets are also very good with no signs of wear or fading. It has had an aftermarket amp gauge fitted as well as a dual oil pressure / temperature gauge which are both very useful. Underneath the car is very solid and has been well maintained over the years. This attractive car benefitted from an earlier restoration and recent service works. We are also informed that this car has been used by Marvel films in the film 'Loki'. The car is accompanied by a history folder containing various bills, invoices and old MoT's dating back many years, as well as the original driver's handbook. This 1100 is a genuine car that must be seen to be truly appreciated.

1956 Ford E83W Pick-up Transmission: manualMileage:52000The Ford E83W, also sold under the Fordson brand, was a 10cwt (half ton) light commercial vehicle, built at the United Kingdom's Dagenham plant between 1938 and 1957. They were powered by the 1172cc Ford side valve engine, with a commercial gearbox, and were equipped with a very low ratio differential, making them much slower than the saloons, but giving them far greater torque.Anthony Hoists Ltd was a coachbuilder who specialized in modifying new commercial vehicles for the major motoring manufacturers, they built the steel back bodies for the E83W and others, with the Fords it was listed as a Builders Truck, rather than a pick-up it was certainly much beefier than the standard Ford offering which was made from wood. The E83W was aimed at the small haulage and support vehicle market. Vans were the most common, along with builders' flatbed pick-ups with wooden side and tail boards. The rarest by far is the steel back Side-Step pick-up, with less than 20 known to exist in the world.Offered here is an extremely rare Ford E83W. Acquired by the current vendor in 1997, it has been extensively restored and has been dry stored ever since. In excellent condition the Pick-up looks superb with period correct sign written livery. The Ford has been used for shows and classic car rallies throughout the current tenure. Offered with various sundry invoices, old MoT test certificates and the current UK registration document. Coming to the open market for the first time in over two decades, this wonderful example is offered without reserve and will be huge amounts of fun for the new owner.

1975 Alfa Romeo Alfetta GT 1800 Transmission: manualMileage:66Alfa Romeo's Alfetta name is synonymous with the post war 158/159 Grand Prix racing cars that became known as the 'invincible Alfetta' after winning every race entered in 1952. 30 years later, in 1972, Alfa Romeo re-introduced the Alfetta name with the introduction an all new saloon (Berlina); named such as the new car shared the transaxle and de Dion suspension design of the earlier race cars. The front suspension was all new thinking with a complex progressive rate set up which used torsion bars in place of the familiar coil springs of the earlier Giulias and Giuliettas. In 1974 a GT version was offered; designed by the stylist Giorgetto Giugiaro, the new Alfetta GT left little doubt as to the car's ancestry. With the gearbox at the rear coupled with the de Dion design and new front suspension, the Alfetta offered 50/50 weight distribution over both axles, giving the GT extraordinary stability at speed. In 1976, the GT, initially offered with a capacity of 1570cc (1.6 litre), was replaced by the 1779cc (1.8 litre) with the fuel filler-cap now visible, as well as the Alfa Romeo badging written above the number plate.The left hand drive example presented today represents one of the first series with the narrow metal bumpers and an 1800cc engine developing 118hp. It is presented in silver with black interior and comes with its green history book and a Auto Club D'Italia Certificate dated 2011. These Italian sports cars are lively to drive offering typically good handling with their 1800 four-cylinder engine providing ample performance.
