1995 Aston Martin Vantage CoupéRegistration no. Not UK RegisteredChassis no. 070109Offered without reserve•Built for the Belgian market•Left-hand drive•Desirable manual transmission•Formerly UK registered •Low mileage recordedFootnotes:'Brutal' was a word used more than once to describe the fastest Aston Martin ever on its introduction in 1992, but as the Vantage had no less than 550bhp available to propel its two tons, the choice can only be judged fair comment. A consummate fast tourer, the Virage left room at the top of the range for an out-and-out sportscar, hence the Vantage. Although the two models appear superficially similar few panels are shared, and beneath the skin the Vantage chassis boasts the kind of extensive re-engineering required to cope with the massive increase in performance. The latter comes courtesy of a blown version of Aston's 5,340cc V8, twin mechanically driven Eaton superchargers being preferred to turbo-charging on the grounds of superior throttle response. Quite apart from its stupendous maximum output, remarkable enough in itself, the engine is monstrously torquey, producing 550lb/ft at 4,000rpm, a figure that makes even the mighty Chrysler Viper V10's 450lb/ft seem puny by way of comparison and the ZF manual gearbox's six-speeds an unnecessary luxury.On test with Autocar magazine, a development Vantage raced to 60mph in a Ferrari 512TR-destroying 4.6 seconds, reaching the 'ton' just 5.5 seconds later. Autocar summed up the Vantage as, 'a real Aston Martin; a big, very beautiful, very fast, albeit expensive GT with so much appeal and purpose behind it that it is more an experience than it is mere transport'.A desirable manual transmission model, left-hand drive chassis number '070109' was built for the Belgian market and originally finished in Rolls-Royce Royal Blue with Parchment leather interior. The car was first registered in the UK (incorrectly as a 'Virage Vantage') on 1st August 2003 and MoT'ed in 2005 at 10,127 miles. The vendor acquired the Vantage from marque specialist Desmond Smail in May 2008, at which time it was stated that it had been owned by 'King Fahd Bin Abdula Aziz' (sic) presumed to be HRH King Fahd bin Abdulaziz Al Saud of Saudi Arabia. The recorded mileage was given as 10,500. The car is fitted with mph speedometer showing 1,148 miles. A copy of the sales invoice is on file and the car also comes with copies of its specification sheet and last (expired) UK V5C Registration Certificate.The Vantage has been on static display for a number of years and will require recommissioning prior to road use.

One owner from new2010 Porsche 911 Type 997 Sport Classic CoupéRegistration no. Not RegisteredChassis no. WP0ZZZ99ZAS794193•One of only 250 made•Built to Swiss market specification•402bhp engine•Six-speed manual transmission•Showing 182 km at time of cataloguing Footnotes:Representing a major step forward, the Type 996 version of Porsche's perennially popular 911, introduced in 1997, really did justify its maker's claims to be 'all new'. With the 996's introduction, Porsche finally adopted water cooling for the flat-six engine, which remained behind the rear wheels of a car that shared no panels with its immediate predecessor and was longer, wider, and higher than before. Not surprisingly, given the Type 996's wholesale re-engineering, the successor Type 997 - introduced in 2004 - represented evolution rather than revolution, the most significant changes being to the interior and exterior styling. The latter marked a welcome return to the 911's traditional oval headlights, and the interior too was more classic 911 than that of the outgoing 996. In developing the Type 997, Porsche had started with the more challenging cabriolet, reasoning that if the open car could be made sufficiently stiff, the coupé would easily achieve the required rigidity. The base 3.6-litre engine remained essentially the same as the Type 996's, while the more expensive 'S' models came with a more powerful 3.8-litre unit. The Turbo, though, kept the '3.6', which now featured Variable Turbine Geometry (VTG) turbo-chargers for better throttle response. As is the case with many modern auto 'boxes, Porsche's Tiptronic got the 911 off the line quicker than the manual version. Unlike in its earliest days, when only a tiny handful of models was on offer, the 911 in more recent decades has spawned a host of special, limited-edition variants catering for every taste, many of them offering increased performance over the base model. One such member of the Type 997 family is the Sport Classic, based on the Carrera S, which was introduced at the 2009 Frankfurt Auto Show. Production was limited to 250 units, all of which were sold in under 48 hours. Using the wider Carrera 4 body, but without four-wheel drive, the Sport Classic was inspired by the legendary Porsche 911 Carrera RS of 1973, adopting its illustrious ancestor's trademark fixed position ducktail spoiler. Normally aspirated, the Sport Classic's engine produced 402bhp courtesy of a newly developed variable resonance intake manifold with six switchable valves, while a six-speed manual gearbox was the only transmission on offer. Other notable features included a 'double bubble' roof; 1970s-style chequered-finish door trim; Espresso (dark brown) braided leather upholstery; ceramic composite brakes; lowered suspension; Fuchs 19' alloy wheels; and special Sport Classic Grey exterior colour. Built to Swiss specification, this rare and collectible Sport Classic was sold new to the current owner on 31st March 2010. To say that the standard specification was generous would be a gross understatement (it runs to almost 70 items) with only three optional 'extras': Sport shifter, preparation for mobile phone, and factory collection! Specification highlights include the following:Tyre pressure monitoringSide skirtsDoors in aluminiumWindscreen with grey top tintB-Xenon headlightsTaillights with clear glass lookPorsche Communication Management (PCM) including GPS navigation moduleSix-disc CD/DVD auto changerAutomatically dimming mirrorsBose surround sound systemCruise controlHeated front seatsAdaptive sports seats with driver memoryRepresenting a wonderful opportunity to acquire a little used example of the rare and exclusive, limited-edition Porsche 911 Sport Classic, the car is offered with copies of the aforementioned purchase invoice and specification sheets.

1979 Aston Martin V8 Vantage Sports SaloonRegistration no. Not UK RegisteredChassis no. V8/VOR/12194Offered without reserve•Factory-fitted automatic transmission•Used by AML Ltd director Peter Cadbury•Correct Tourmaline Blue paintworkFootnotes:With the resurrection of the 'Vantage' name in 1977, Aston Martin enthusiasts everywhere breathed a sigh of relief; previously applied to high-power versions of the DB six-cylinder cars, it had been dormant since the V8's arrival back in 1969. A heavier car than its six-cylinder predecessor, the V8 suffered as emissions legislation became ever more strangulating, leading to concern that Aston Martin's traditional performance image might be lost. The arrival of the Vantage dispelled any such worries. Propelling Aston's V8 back into the supercar league was a tuned version of the existing 5,340cc engine breathing through a quartet of 48mm Weber carburettors rather than the standard 42mm instruments. Valves and ports were enlarged and the camshafts changed, the end result being an estimated maximum output of around 375-380bhp - in Rolls-Royce fashion the factory chose not to disclose the actual figure, merely claiming that power was 'adequate'. In 1978 the V8 Vantage earned the title of 'world's fastest accelerating production car' and throughout its life delivered outstanding performance by any standard, accelerating to 60mph in just 5.2 seconds on its way to a top speed of 175mph. With such high speeds attainable, aerodynamic refinements were called for. Thus the Vantage gained a deep front 'chin' spoiler, blanked off front grille and a boot lid spoiler, the latter being bolted on to the earliest cars and later integrated into the bodywork. There were commensurate improvements to the suspension, brakes and tyres. Its accompanying copy Car Record Card confirms that this home-market V8 Vantage was despatched from Aston Martin's Newport Pagnell works on 12th November 1979 finished in Tourmaline Blue with Fawn leather interior trim. Notable factory features included a wood interior to V8 saloon specification; two detachable headrests; two Rearguard fog lamps; a Blaupunkt Bamberg stereo radio/cassette; and no front grille blanking plate. The current owner purchased the Vantage at Bonhams' Beaulieu sale in September 2011 (Lot 518). At that time we made the following statements: 'Copies of subsequent correspondence with the vehicle also confirm that V8/VOR/12194 was then converted by the Works Service Department from manual to automatic transmission for Aston Martin Lagonda Ltd director Peter Cadbury – one of only three such conversions believed to have been undertaken by Works Service at the time and a full 6 years before automatic transmission was officially offered on this model. Later enhancements include a deep front spoiler, Ronal alloys, a new steering wheel and a Vanquish-style starter button.''Stamped vouchers in the Service Booklet record services carried out at regular intervals by AML and AVJ from July 1980 at 1695m to October 1990 at 52,695m. More recent services have been undertaken by marque specialists Runnymede (in) September 2005 at 64,445m and by Nicholas Mee (in) November 2006 at 70,140m. While receipts on file detail further work carried out by the workshops of Lincoln Scott, HWM, Waterside Classics and Nicholas Mee including replacement sills 2003, full re-trim in cream hide piped in blue 2005, replacement air-conditioning 2006 and new brake discs 2007. The total mileage of 73,044 displayed when entered is also confirmed by readings from 19 MoTs dating back to 1987/8, the latest being valid until December, while 20 previous tax discs are also present as are a 1978/9 sales leaflet and price list.'Unfortunately, all of the aforementioned documentation is no longer with the car, apart from an old-style UK V5C Registration Certificate. As the car was subsequently exported, an application to retain the registration mark will be required.The V8 Vantage has been on static display for a number of years and will require recommissioning prior to road use.

1971 Aston Martin DB6 Mark 2 Sports SaloonRegistration no. Not UK RegisteredChassis no. DB6MK2/4320/ROffered without reserve•One of only 240 DB6 Mark 2s built•Original colour combination•Present ownership since 2009Footnotes:In 1958 Aston Martin introduced its DB4 model, the first of a line which culminated in the DB6 built between 1965 and 1969. A key factor in the success of the DB6's DB4 progenitor was general manager John Wyer's decision that the new car be styled in Italy, rather than by the works, and the commission was superbly executed by Touring of Milan. The platform chassis was the work of Aston Martin's chief engineer Harold Beach, while the new twin overhead camshaft engine had been conceived by his colleague, Tadek Marek, and race tested in the DBR2 before its production debut in the DB4. With the arrival of the DB5 in 1963, engine capacity was upped, by enlarging the bore from 92 to 96mm, from 3.7 to 4.0 litres and this power unit was carried over to the DB6 for 1966. Power output on triple SU carburettors was 282bhp, rising to 325bhp in Vantage specification on triple Webers. Borg-Warner automatic transmission was offered alongside the standard ZF five-speed manual gearbox, and for the first time power-assisted steering was an option.The DB6 differed from its predecessors in having a longer wheelbase, which, at 8' 5¾', was 3¾' longer than that of the DB5. This meant more room for rear passengers, making the DB6 more of a family man's car, and helped it sell better than the earlier models in the series. The bodywork was distinctive, with a slightly higher roofline than the DB4 and DB5, and featured an aerodynamically efficient, abbreviated 'Kamm' tail. In the summer of 1969 the Mark 2 DB6 was announced in saloon and convertible versions. Distinguishable by its flared wheelarches and DBS wheels, the DB6 Mark 2 came with power-assisted steering as standard and could be ordered with AE Brico electronic fuel injection. When DB6 production ceased in 1970, a total of 1,567 saloons had been made, only 240 of which were to Mark 2 specification.First registered on 16th March 1971, this late DB6 Mark 2 was first registered (as 'EPY 501J') to S F Craggs Esq of East Yorkshire, while the AMOC Register records a subsequent registration as 'GPE 650J'. The car was built with the optional Borg Warner automatic transmission, and left the factory finished in the classic combination of Silver Birch with black Connolly leather interior. Purchased from marque specialist Desmond Smail in September 2009, the Aston is offered with copies of the sales invoice, factory guarantee form, and its last - and expired as it has been exported - V5C Registration Certificate.This rare MK2 has been on static display for a number of years and will require recommissioning prior to road use.

c.2001 Ducati 748 R Series 2Registration no. Not UK RegisteredChassis no. ZDMH300AA1B008413•Sold new in Italy•Only 200 kilometres recorded•Offered from a respected UK Ducati collection•Requires re-commissioningFootnotes:Introduced in 2000, replacing the 748 SPS, the 748 R was built in order to homologate parts which Ducati required for their World Supersport Championship contender. The frame was borrowed from Ducati's 996 World Superbike racer, permitting the use of a much larger (14-litre) airbox and throttle body with a single shower-type fuel injector. Cams, valves, con-rods, etc were all up-rated and the 996-based engine produced a remarkable 106bhp at 11,000rpm from its 748cc. Other notable features included a slipper clutch, different chassis settings and lightweight Marchesini wheels. For 2001, a second series was introduced, with Öhlins forks and rear shock absorber replacing the previous Showa items. The frame was lightened and at the same time stiffened by using a carbon fibre airbox. There were also detailed improvements to the engine.This machine is one of the desirable 2nd Series, which we understand was limited to circa 1,500 units, this one being number '475'. Released from a respected UK Ducati collection, it is effectively new, having covered only 200 kilometres since it left the Bologna factory. As the machine is virtually unused, it should require light re-commissioning before use. This rare and desirable modern Ducati is offered with its original Italian registration papers; original owner's manual and service book; UK Nova declaration; and two keys.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
1979 Aston Martin V8 Vantage Sports SaloonRegistration no. Not UK RegisteredChassis no.

There were commensurate improvements to the suspension, brakes and tyres. Unlike the V8 saloon, which reverted to fuel injection in 1986, the V8 Vantage kept its 48IDF Weber carburettors to the end of production in December 1989, by which time 361 cars had been built. Originally finished in Old English Pewter with Fawn trim, chassis number '12204' was delivered equipped with the following options: two detachable headrests; electric sliding roof; headlamp wash/wipe; lambs' wool front seat covers; and lockable filler caps. The car's first owner was P Crane Esq of GTV Caravans, Bristol. The current owner purchased the Vantage from respected Aston Martin specialist Keith Riddington's Classicmobilia in October 2010, by which time it had been refinished in California Sage and re-trimmed in Magnolia. Accompanying purchase paperwork records the displayed mileage as 61,000 and states that the Aston had recently been subject to a full engine rebuild and replacement clutch. The car is offered with an old-style V5C Registration Certificate and copies of factory build documents.

One owner from new2000 BMW Z8 RoadsterRegistration no. W607 OSSChassis no. WBAEJ11020AF77419•Rare and exclusive limited edition model•One of 5,703 built•Supplied new in Germany•41,186 miles from new•Full BMW service historyFootnotes:In recent times many motor manufacturers, particularly those with a significant sporting heritage, have felt the need to reference iconic models from the past when launching their latest. BMW has proved adept at exploiting this 'retro' trend, commencing in 1996 with the Z3 coupé and convertible, the styling of which brilliantly recalled its fabulous '328' sports car of pre-war days. Its next effort along similar lines - the 'Z07' concept car of 1997 - took its inspiration from the post-war Alfred Goetz-designed '507', a luxurious limited-edition roadster.The sensation of the 1997 Tokyo Auto Show, the Z07 was received so enthusiastically that BMW took the decision to press ahead with a production version: the Z8. For the most part the Z8 remained remarkably faithful to the original concept, retaining the 507-like twin-nostril front grille and distinctive front-wing vents. A period-style interior had been one of the Z07's most remarked upon features, and that too made it into the Z8.The Z8's body panelling and spaceframe chassis were fabricated in lightweight and corrosion resistant aluminium, while the 32-valve 4,941cc V8 engine, shared with the M5 saloon, was built by BMW's Motorsport division. With 400bhp on tap, the Z8 raced to 100km/h (62mph) in 4.7 seconds and only the built-in limiter stopped it from exceeding 250km/h (155mph). Power reached the run-flat tyres via a Getrag six-speed manual gearbox. Needless to say, the Z8 also came with all the modern appurtenances one would expect of a flagship model: traction control, stability control, front and side air bags, GPS navigation, climate control and power operation of the seats, steering wheel and convertible hood all being included in the package. The fact that the Z8 was a low-volume model assembled, for the most part, by hand, enabled BMW to offer customers considerable freedom in personalising their cars. Further enhancing its appeal to collectors, the factory announced that a 50-year stockpile of Z8 parts would be maintained. Despite a (US) launch price of over $128,000, initial demand was so high that a bidding war broke out, with many Z8s selling for well in excess of that figure. By the time production ceased in 2003, 5,703 of these fabulous cars had been built. This Z8 was purchased new by the vendor from Frankfurt BMW and used by him in Germany and Switzerland before being brought to their UK country house. An exceptionally well maintained example, the car comes with full BMW service history and a good supporting file, including bills from BMW Norwich. Since 2018 the Z8 has been maintained by BMW specialists BMP Conversions in Norfolk. Bills total some £21,000 for works/parts including new VANOS units, lambda sensors, engine servicing, etc, etc. The body has recently been repainted professionally by Pronto Prestige in Norwich (bill for £7,600). Showing a little over 41,000 miles on the odometer, and recently MoT'd, we are advised this Z8 has never wanted for anything, presents beautifully and drives very well. A true collectors' BMW.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
1959 Alfa Romeo Giulietta SprintRegistration no. 330 XVNChassis no. 149309141Offered without reserve•Original European left-hand drive example•Finished in Bianco Nube with a blue vinyl/light grey cloth interior •One owner from 1966 to 2012, an incredible time warp•Formed part of world-class collections•Wonderful history fileFootnotes:Following the ravages of war Alfa Romeo regrouped, equipping their rebuilt factories with the latest machinery to enable them once again to become a major manufacturer on the world stage. An all-new business plan was devised to gear up production and the 1,290cc Giulietta emerged to fulfil those ambitions. In best Alfa Romeo tradition, a twin-overhead camshaft engine was to power the new model, the smallest engine size ever offered by the company but yet, in standard form, developing a more than healthy 80bhp. The unit installed is a correct specification replacement and an early variant with gear driven fuel-pump. Although offered as a four-door saloon it was the sporting Bertone-styled Giulietta Sprint which captured the Italian sporting motorists' heart with its neat and functional styling turning heads from absolutely every angle. A mildly developed Veloce engine was offered as an option giving 90bhp and providing a top speed in excess of 100mph. Handling was enhanced by independent front suspension with coil springs and wishbones with coil spring, radius arms, and A-bracket at the rear. The model ceased production in 1965 following an eleven-year run. This delightful Giulietta Sprint 750B dates from 1959 and was built in left-hand drive for the German market. Later that year, it was sold by Auto Freidrich in Frankfurt to its first owner. The early ownership details are unknown but on 1st July 1966, it was acquired by Douglas Foon Gee of Bellevue, Washington State, who evidently loved the little Alfa as he was to own it until August 22nd, 2012, a total of 46 years. It is believed the original engine suffered from frost damage whilst in his ownership. In 2017 it was sold to Axel Schuette and subsequently joined a significant private collection in Germany. The condition genuinely needs to be seen to be fully appreciated. This beautiful Alfa has been cherished and has retained such a remarkable quality throughout. The odometer readying of circa 59,000 km (circa 37,000 miles) is thought to be original. In October this year it was sent to respected Alfa specialist Chris Robinson who carried out a extensive service, including work to brakes, steering, suspension, fuel pump etc. During this work the sump was removed to assess the internal condition of the engine. He found evidence of a recent rebuild. Invoices for the Robinson work are on file totalling £1,460.It is supplied with its original Alfa pouch containing the Certificato di Origine, Owner's Manual (in German), a number of US Certificates of Title, the spare keys and the original jack.Lot to be sold without reserve.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
2004 Aston Martin Vanquish SRegistration no. YJ54 TSMChassis no. SCFAC143J5B501642Offered without reserve •Imported from Japan•Right-hand drive•Automatic transmission•Only 29,000 kilometres (approximately 18,000 miles) recorded Footnotes:An entirely new Aston Martin for the 21st Century, the V12-engined Vanquish coupé debuted at the Geneva Auto Show in March 2001 with deliveries commencing a few months later. Styled by Ian Callum, the man responsible for the DB7, the Vanquish was developed with assistance from Aston Martin's parent company Ford using constructional techniques more advanced than those of any contemporary road car. The monocoque tub was made of heat-cured bonded aluminium, braced by a central tunnel of carbon fibre to create a lightweight structure of exceptional rigidity, thus enabling the chassis engineers to develop suspension combining excellent handling and roadholding with unrivalled ride quality. First seen in the DB7 V12, the 5.9-litre, 48-valve engine developed 460bhp at 6,800rpm, with 400lb/ft of torque available at 5,500 revs. The six-speed gearbox was controlled by F1-style paddles and could be operated in either of two modes: fully manual or computer-controlled automatic, with a 'sport' setting available on both. The inventory of standard equipment included almost everything the discerning connoisseur could wish for, while the performance - 190mph and 0-60mph in 4.5 seconds – placed the Vanquish firmly in the supercar class.The Vanquish was built in two versions: two-seater and 2+2. A pleasing blend of up-to-the-minute technology and traditional materials, the interior was dominated by an imposing aluminium centre console while also featuring Connolly leather upholstery and Wilton carpeting, emphasising the Aston Martin heritage, for despite its advanced specification, the Vanquish was built like all other Astons before it: one at a time and by hand. Like many of its illustrious brethren, the Vanquish enjoys the distinction of being a 'James Bond' Aston Martin, featuring in the movie Die Another Day starring Pierce Brosnan as '007'. Offered here is an example of the revamped Vanquish S that superseded the original version in 2004. Chief upgrade concerned the engine, which now produced 514bhp, an output good enough to make the Vanquish S a 200mph car. The previously optional Sports Dynamic Pack of enhanced steering, suspension and brakes came as standard with the Vanquish S. The vendor saw this Vanquish S in Japan and loved its Old English White colour and contrasting black/red interior. The car was imported after the selling garage had completed some restoration work. Since then the vendor has completed trips to Lake Como and back and, somewhat less exotically, Leeds to Bury St Edmunds, and describes the Vanquish as a great classic drive. Currently showing only 29,000 kilometres (approximately 18,000 miles) on the odometer, the car is offered with a V5C document and current MoT.Lot to be sold without reserve.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
