It is a very well specified example and was ordered new with £6,500 worth of optional extras which includes a factory hardtop roof. The outside is finished in a black metallic paint which works well with the grey leather interior (both are in good order).

1990 Ford Sierra Sapphire RS Cosworth 4x4Registration no. H741 XYCChassis no. WFOFXXGBBFLU56291Odometer Reading: TBCMoT Expiry: 10/12/2021*No-expense-spared extensive restoration*Engine seriously upgraded*First-class presentationAn urban legend if ever there was one, Ford's performance range surpassed itself with the Sierra Sapphire 4x4 – but there was always room for even more power, as this example shows. This 1990 example has an urban streetfighter air but it is important to look beyond the external appearance to the close attention to detail, whether in the bodywork's restoration or the mechanical upgrading. Our vendor says the bodyshell has been extensively restored, being stripped back to bare metal before any corroded material was cut out and replaced, And to save the next owner having to repeat the exercise the underside was coated with anti-chip and the latest rust-proofing was sued throughout. The interior features the original grey leather Recaro seats with custom-made red seat belts front and rear, and dashboard inlays feature piano-black gloss and carbon fibre. The engine's upgrading features an extensive list of new components that include a WRC Inconel exhaust manifold with IHI RX6 hybrid turbocharger, air-injection anti-lag system, Group A alloy twin fan radiator and a Thermatic electric water pump – the fluids are kept moving through Samco silicone hoses. Power delivery is through a Quaife Group N close-ration gearbox and Helix five-paddle clutch. The power hike is kept in check with adjustable Konis and Eibach lowering springs all round, steering being handled by a Mercedes-Benz electric power steering pump, and a new Group A loom handles the electrical side. With such a considered approach to restoration and improvement, this Sapphire is certain to please anyone looking for a practical, rapid and eye-catching modern classic saloon.Please click the link to view the walkaround video of this lot: click hereFootnotes:Please note the odometer reading is 7,832.Vendor Score Total: 81/100Bidders should note that the automated 100-point Seller's Assessment is provided by each Seller at the point of consignment using the guidelines below, and is not provided, assessed or verified by Bonhams MPH.

1989 Mercedes-Benz 300 SE Transmission: automaticMileage:67584The Mercedes-Benz W126 is a series of saloon vehicles manufactured from September 1979 as the successor to the earlier W116 line, the W126 being the second generation of the Mercedes-Benz flagship to officially bear the S-Class name referring to Sonderklasse or ‘special class’. The W126 was initially offered in straight six, V8, and turbo diesel saloon models. Compared to its predecessor, the W126 was more aerodynamic, fuel efficient, capacious, and more powerfully engined. The W126 range also introduced many Mercedes-Benz safety innovations including the first airbag (supplemental restraint systems), seatbelt pre-tensioners, and traction control. The W126 had a twelve-year production run between 1979 and 1991, the longest of any S-Class generation since the flagship models were first built in the mid-1950’s.This delightful Mercedes-Benz was originally registered on 13th January 1989 and has covered 67,584 miles in its 32 years on British roads. The light blue coachwork is in very good order and the contrasting dark blue velour interior virtually unmarked. Clearly a very well cared for example, this 300 SE comes from the era when Mercedes-Benz were building cars that would seemingly last forever. Supplied with a V5C registration document and a current MoT test certificate valid until 1st February 2022, with only three previous keepers these W126 models are becoming increasingly rare-particularly in this condition.Interested parties should satisfy themselves as to the description and condition of each lot prior to the sale.

1983 Mercedes-Benz 280 SL Transmission: automaticMileage:45644The Mercedes-Benz SL (Sport Leicht) has been in production since 1954 with perhaps the most influential model being the W113 Pagoda of 1963. This second generation evolved from the 230 SL to 250 SL, finally becoming the 280 SL. The W113 was replaced by the W107 in 1971 and as the engines became larger, the bodywork and weight of the cars also increased, as so often happens in mid-life! The SL improved through the years with technical innovation but still managed to keep its fundamental character and identity of an up-market, high quality sports car. Its reputation went from strength to strength and it was rare to see an episode of Dallas or Dynasty in the 1980's without an SL making a star appearance. The impressive soft-top mechanism which folds down out of sight under a panel ahead of the boot lid gave the car a beautifully sleek, uncluttered appearance. Of all the engine offerings the 280 remains sought after with the smaller 2.8 litre engine offering plenty of power but with the advantage of less weight and thus improved handling.Offered in splendid red coachwork with near new chequered cloth trim, this stunning example of the R107 includes the desirable rear bench seat. This cherished example shows 14 main dealer stamps in the original service booklet; it has since had a documented history detailed by the current owner in the history file including a comprehensive service in November 2019 preceded by an independent valuation of £30,000 by UK Sportscars and a further inspection to confirm the bulkhead is in excellent condition. Originally supplied by Waterhouse Mercedes-Benz Ltd of Chelmsford to a Mr Wood in March 1983, this well specified and low mileage example is amongst the best we have seen. Offered with an MoT test certificate valid until October 2021, with no advisories, viewing is highly recommended to appreciate this fine Mercedes roadster.Interested parties should satisfy themselves as to the description and condition of each lot prior to the sale.

1972 Mercedes-Benz 280 SEL (3.5 litre) Transmission: automaticMileage:28850The Mercedes-Benz W108 and W109 were luxury cars produced from 1965 through to 1972 and 1973 in North America only. The line was an update of the predecessor W111 and W112 fintail saloon. The W108 models were the 280S and 280SE, with production starting in November 1967. These replaced the 250S, 250SE and 300SE, however production of export-designated 250S would continue until March 1969. In January 1968, the model line was joined by yet another car, the 280SEL. The car had the longer wheelbase of the W109, but lacked the expensive and problematic pneumatic suspension and other features of the 300SEL. Hence the chassis code remained W108.Imported from Japan, this lovely very original example is presented in black with grey interior which is half cloth and half MB-Tex. Its smooth and rare 3.5 litre V8 is mated to an automatic gearbox and with its sprung suspension, this model is one of the most desirable for the discerning collector. These luxury saloons were the choice of Embassies and Royalty around the world and were a delight to drive, performing well on those long journeys which ate up the miles effortlessly and in comfort. This particular car us showing a mere 28,850km (17,926 miles) on the odometer. A very nice example indeed and ready for a new custodian.Interested parties should satisfy themselves as to the description and condition of each lot prior to the sale.

2006 Mercedes-Benz S65 AMG V12 Twin Turbo Transmission: automaticMileage:58000The wizards of Affalterbach, creators of the AMG company in 1967 which became the official engine tuner for Mercedes-Benz in 1999. The Mercedes-Benz W221 was the chassis code of the Mercedes-Benz S-Class, the successor of the S-Class W220. The S-Class are the flagship vehicles of Mercedes-Benz and each generation typically introduces a range of technical innovations and developments that over time will find their way into smaller cars. The Mercedes-Benz S65 AMG, the most powerful top of the line S-Class model made, was even more appealing thanks to a series of subtle yet extremely effective fine-tuning measures, the performance saloon is even more striking and priceless than ever before. The updated technology is aimed at ensuring a more dynamic driving experience as well as optimum active and passive safety. Exclusivity and dynamism combined with effortless superiority and state of the art technology, the top S-Class model from Mercedes AMG embodies all these characteristics and more. The AMG six litre bi-turbo V12 engine of the S65 AMG delivers maximum power of 612hp and maximum torque of 1000 Newton metres, accelerating from 0-100km/h in just 4.4 seconds. The saloon is electronically limited to 250km/h. Despite no changes having been made to the engine data and performance values, it has still been possible to reduce fuel consumption and CO2 emissions by up to three percent. The S65 continued to use the five-speed gearbox, because it can handle the higher torque of the engine, as opposed to the seven-speed transmission.This good Mercedes-Benz S65 AMG was supplied new in July 2006 by Mercedes-Benz Stockport with AGM options including 20” forged wheels and carbon fibre piano lacquer trim. The car is with standard wheels also has a set of Brabus 21” wheels with low profile tyres comes with it.

Recently the car has been to a Mercedes-Benz specialist where it has had a control module replaced, a service carried out, gearbox oil changed and a new MoT test supplied with the car. Finished in dark blue with dark tan leather interior, this Mercedes-Benz S65 AMG is supplied with a V5 registration document, an MoT test certificate which expires in April 2022 and the stamped service book. The top of the line, S65, set new standards in equipment not only with its powerful engine but also with its suspension, brakes and with its active and passive safety systems.

2000 Mercedes-Benz SL320 Transmission: automaticMileage:62890Unveiled at the March 1989 Geneva Motor Show, the new Mercedes-Benz R129 Series SL range was beautifully engineered. Based around a two-door monocoque bodyshell, its sophisticated, all-round independent suspension (double-wishbone front/five-link rear) was augmented by a host of active and passive safety features including electronic stability control, ventilated ABS disc brakes, adaptive-damping shock absorbers, front airbags and an integral rollover bar that deployed in less than a third of a second if the car ever sensed an impending flip. Suitably cosseting, the convertible's impeccably built cabin consisted of a fully automated power hood and featured such advancements as memory seats, electric windows and mirrors and an adjustable steering column. Yet lurking beneath all the luxury and refinement was a performance orientated sports car.This lovely example of this popular and final R129 model is presented in silver with a black leather interior. It comes with a book pack, service book with ten stamps and was last serviced 600 miles ago in 2020, six invoices can be seen in the history file. The car also comes with its Japanese Mileage Guarantee Certificate verifying its mileage as correct. These, last of the line V6 engined SL’s are extremely popular models today and this particular SL320 represents great value for money considering its original book price.Interested parties should satisfy themselves as to the description and condition of each lot prior to the sale.

1963 Mercedes-Benz 220SE Cabriolet Transmission: automaticMileage:6659The Mercedes-Benz W111 was produced from 1959 to 1968 and was the chassis code given to its top-range vehicles, including four-door saloons, with two-door coupés and cabriolets being produced from 1961 to 1971. Design of a replacement for the two-door Pontons began in 1957 as most of the chassis and drivetrain were to be unified with the saloon with the emphasis on the exterior styling. Some of the mock-ups and prototypes show that Mercedes-Benz attempted to give the two-door car a front styling similar to the Pagoda roadster. The rear bodywork persisted however and as such although officially still called a 'fintail', the rear end design had no chrome fin highlights. Production began in late 1960 and in February of the next year the coupé was premiered in Stuttgart for the 75th anniversary of the opening of the Mercedes-Benz Museum. The convertible followed at the Frankfurt Motor Show a few months later and this was almost identical to the coupé with the soft-top roof folded into a recess behind the rear seat and covered by a tightly fitting bag. Unlike the previous generation of the two-door Ponton series, there was only one model for the two-door vehicle, the 220SE badge on both versions, with the identical 2195cc engine. This right hand drive Mercedes-Benz 220SE Cabriolet was supplied new in 1963. In more recent times the vendor has commissioned a restoration which included a full respray, a rebuilt front suspension and various other works. Unfortunately, due to unforeseen circumstances the restoration came to a halt this year leaving the project agonisingly close to completion. Importantly, the bodywork is good with little sign of age and the engine is running, with most of the laborious jobs already completed we believe this example would be a very rewarding project for the new owner. 1960's Mercedes convertibles are becoming increasingly sought after by people from all over the world, making them a very sound investment for the future and this example, offered with its current UK V5 registration document and various sundry invoices should not be overlooked!

1965 Mercedes-Benz 220 SE Coupé Transmission: manualMileage:70000With a production run that started in 1959 and finished in 1968, the Mercedes-Benz W111 series was the top of the range line-up for the German manufacturer. The addition of two-door coupés and cabriolets was made in 1961. These new models were the replacement for the two-door Pontons and factory prototypes show that Mercedes-Benz attempted to give the two-door car a front styling similar to the Pagoda roadster. The rear bodywork persisted and although officially called a fintail the rear end design had no chrome fin highlights. The coupé was premiered in Stuttgart for the 75th anniversary of the Mercedes-Benz Museum.This superb example is presented in light blue with wonderful red leather interior. It comes with a history file containing details of a detailed body and engine rebuild together with a CD providing evidence of work completed along with further invoice history of work carried out. This fabulous example of this iconic classic from the Germany manufacturer is exemplary in its condition and has won overtime many awards at Mercedes-Benz events. The ivory steering wheel and gear knob add to is nostalgic feel, particularly complemented by its fabulous interior which is extremely comfortable as with all Mercedes-Benz of this era are! The wooden instrument binnacle and screen surround have been treated to some honest updating, without losing the authenticity of her 50 years of life and the lighting has been upgraded with LED bulbs, without changing the lenses so that you wouldn't realise. Powered by its smooth six-cylinder engine mated to a manual gearbox, this stunning classic will turn heads everywhere. Interested parties should satisfy themselves as to the description and condition of each lot prior to the sale.

1972 Mercedes-Benz 280 SE Coupé (3.5 Litre) Transmission: automaticMileage:91876In the summer of 1965, Mercedes-Benz launched its new replacements for both W 111 and W 112 saloons, the W 108 and W 109 respectively. In a bizarre twist of fate, this car's design was based on the W 111 coupé but widened and squared off as the fintail fashion was quickly fading by the mid 1960s. However, both W 111 and W 112 models were modernised; the 220 SE was superseded by the 250 SE which featured the new 2,496cc engine, producing 150bhp at 5500rpm, giving it a significant improvement in top speed. Visibly, the changes only affected the new 14 rims with new wheel trims; this was to accommodate the larger disk brakes and the new rear axle. In November 1967, the 250 SE was superseded by the new 280 SE. Inside, the car received wood veneer on the dashboard and other minor changes. A final model was added in August 1969, the 280 SE, 3.5 litre. It was fitted with the brand-new M116, 3,499cc, V8 engine with 200bhp at 5,800rpm, a top speed of 130mph and a 0-100 at 9.5 seconds. To accommodate the large engine, the car's front grill was widened and front bumpers were modified.This fabulous and original right hand drive example is the much sort after V8 example and is presented in pristine silver/blue metallic with light beige leather interior. The wood panels and facia are in exemplary condition throughout, as are all the leather seats. This model is powered by the strong and hugely desirable 3.5 litre V8 engine which is wonderful on long journeys, coping effortlessly with motorway cruising but is just as at home in the winding country roads. There is a substantial history file presented with this Mercedes-Benz which contains many invoices for work done over the years, accompanying this are original Mercedes booklets and many previous MoT test certificates. Restored to a very high standard by the current vendor, this car was taken back to bare metal and the body and chassis were repaired and treated where necessary, the photos on file showing just how thorough the restoration was. The engine, interior and paintwork were also extensively renewed by marque specialists and present in excellent order throughout. This is one of best examples of this model available on the market today.Interested parties should satisfy themselves as to the description and condition of each lot prior to the sale.

2001 Mercedes-Benz SL500 Silver Arrow Transmission: automaticMileage:54600The 4973cc, R129 Mercedes-Benz SL500 carried on the tradition of the fast and reliable grand touring convertible from Mercedes-Benz. Born out of the earlier 500 SL models, the new SL500 featured many new and innovative ideas for the time such as controlled electronic damping, automatically expanding rollover bar and a more modern multi-link rear axle. A fully operating electric hood, windows, door mirrors and seats made this model easy and comfortable to operate. With powerful engines, stopping power was aided by anti-locking braking for reassurance. During 1995, a mild facelift was carried out to the model range that included revisions to the headlights, taillights and several new features adopted as standard including side air bags, automatic climate control and ESP. A special edition of 2001 SL500 and SL600 was made to celebrate the 1930's Silver Arrow race car. It had a two-tone interior, leather on steering wheel and seats, and special wheels. Built mainly for the US market, right hand drive SL500 Silver Arrows are rare; it is believed that only a hundred were made for the UK market.The Mercedes-Benz SL500 Silver Arrow Limited Edition offered here is one of the 100 UK supplied cars and was first registered in March 2002. Having covered a mere 54,600 miles, this stunning example is finished in Silver Arrow metallic silver with grey and black leather interior. The car boasts a sizeable history file and the last service recorded was carried out recently and included a replacement of the shock absorbers. Specification highlights include factory panoramic hardtop, climate control, cruise control, 18” alloy wheels, electric seats with memory, heated seats, CD auto-changer and wind-deflector. This stunning SL is the perfect opportunity to own a usable modern classic that will surely appreciate over time.Interested parties should satisfy themselves as to the description and condition of each lot prior to the sale.

2006 Mercedes-Benz C55 AMG Transmission: automaticMileage:78500The C55 signified a return to AMG’s V8 roots, after barely a three-year flirtation with a supercharged V6. AMG found 8,100 homes for the C32, but the AMG engineers seemed much happier now that there was a serious, big-capacity, naturally aspirated 5.4 litre V8 powering the meatiest C-Class and the badge is there to, well, to ensure the owners don’t forget. It is not the performance, AMG claimed 5.2 seconds to 62mph for both C55 and C32, or even the transformation to a deep, wonderfully muscular exhaust note, but the makeover in the dynamics that stood the new sports saloon apart. The C55 marked a small, but perceptible, shift towards a sharper, more sporting focus, that set it closer to the M3 than any previous AMG hot rod C-Class.This example is presented in Obsidian Black with black AMG leather interior. The car was recently imported from Japan and comes with its service book with invoices and a Mileage Guarantee Certificate which verifies the car’s mileage. These cars are extremely quick, being powered by the mighty 5.5 litre V8 mated to an automatic gearbox, a true ‘wolf in sheep’s clothing’. Electric Glass sunroof, cruise control, Electric windows, climate control air conditioning and full AMG leather interior complement this superb German pocket rocket. Interested parties should satisfy themselves as to the description and condition of each lot prior to the sale.

1965 Mercedes-Benz 230 SL Pagoda Transmission: manualMileage:63374The Mercedes-Benz W113 roadsters, designed by Paul Bracq, were produced from 1963 through to 1971 and were known as the 'pagoda roof' SL. All models boast an inline six cylinder engine with multi-port fuel injection. Rear wheel drive configuration was complemented by independent rear suspension, a feature that greatly improved road handling. The 230 SL made a remarkable debut at the prestigious Geneva Motor Show in March 1963 where the famous German engineer Fritz Nallinger introduced it as follows; it was our aim to create a very safe and fast sports car with high performance which, despite its sports characteristics, provides a very high degree of travelling comfort.First registered on 1st January 1965, this wonderful and very rare right hand drive, manual gearbox 230 SL was first registered ACR 650C. Accompanied by the original green logbook, it shows that in 1974 the personal plate of SAE 5 was put on the car at a cost of £5. The vendor requested the DVLA to reapply the plate when he restored the car, which he acquired in 2018 in need of what can only be described as a ‘total restoration’. The degree of what was needed can be seen in the wonderful photographic book that accompanies the car and shows the condition from purchase through to total restoration. Indeed, so comprehensive was the restoration that it is hard to imagine that the car presented here was the same one seen in 2018. Taking just over two years to complete, it is only for sale due to a lack of storage. The car was restored using only Mercedes parts with one bill showing over £15,000 in parts alone, the whole project being totally without compromise. The interior is all new, as are most of the panels. The car was given a bare metal respray in its original colour of navy blue with cream leather interior and new hood. Even the tyres are new! The only modifications from its factory specification are the upgrade from a 230 SL engine to a freshly rebuilt 250 SL engine to improve the driving experience and the addition of a cold start feature, a common issue with the SL’s. The vendor indeed describes the car as immaculate and a pleasure to drive.Supplied with UK V5C registration document, original logbook, old MoT and photographic picture book of its restoration. The car also comes supplied with its hardtop roof and includes the SAE 5 number plate. This fantastic example of a Pagoda is not to be missed.Interested parties should satisfy themselves as to the description and condition of each lot prior to the sale.

1964 Mercedes-Benz 230SL Pagoda Transmission: automaticMileage:50380The Mercedes-Benz W113 roadsters, designed by Paul Bracq, were produced from 1963 through to 1971 and were known as the 'pagoda roof' SL. All models boast an inline six-cylinder engine with multi-port fuel injection. Rear-wheel drive configuration was complemented by independent rear suspension, a feature that greatly improved road handling. The 230 SL made a remarkable debut at the prestigious Geneva Motor Show in March 1963 where the famous German engineer Fritz Nallinger introduced it as follows It was our aim to create a very safe and fast sports car with high performance which, despite its sports characteristics, provides a very high degree of travelling comfort”. Early or pre-September 1964 cars had a vertically mounted spare wheel that recessed into the spare wheel well on the left hand side of the boot. After September 1964 Mercedes-Benz did away with the wheel well, instead lying the spare wheel horizontally, compromising boot space commonly known as thus early cars known as ‘Drop floor cars’ which are desirable especially for those touring and wanting the extra space. Sold at auction to Pagoda restoration specialists in March 2020 by Historics, this early ‘drop floor’ or vertically mounted rear wheel well, UK supplied right hand drive matching engine and chassis car has had an interesting last 18 months. The result of a bad debt, it was repossessed by the bank (Santander) before being offered by Historics having been stripped and readied for restoration with some £10,000 having been spent in preparation. Our vendor, a specialist in Pagoda restorations, saw the potential in EYY 323B and set about a full nut and bolt restoration with circa £30,000 spent on the body alone which included sand blasting, four new lower corners, floor and boot plan before beautiful paint was applied. Presented in Ivroy White with Midnight Blue leather trim the engine turns freely but has not yet been tackled. The new shocks and suspension components are ready for fitting and supplied with the car as are, we believe, all items that should be required to complete the project. The UK V5C registration document reveals four previous owners and importantly, that it was registered in the UK from new, making this a factory right hand drive example which is particularly desirable; especially with the mileage which is believed to be correct.  Finished UK supplied Pagodas, can sell for as much as £180,000 plus! The finish so far is extremely good and the project is certainly on its way to completion; remarkably being offered without reserve. Please note that the information provided is all we currently have and therefore we strongly recommend viewing of the car and its parts on one of our four viewing days.   We are sure you will not be disappointed. Guide price £55,000 - £65,000Interested parties should note that the V5 for this car which was last issued in 2016 has been misplaced and therefore a replacement will need to be applied for with the DVLA by the new owner.Interested parties should satisfy themselves as to the description and condition of each lot prior to the sale.

1972 Mercedes-Benz 280SE (3.5 Litre) Transmission: automaticMileage:17700The first 'S-class' Mercedes arrived in 1968 in the form of the 280S and 280SE which were large comfortable sports saloons offering powerful touring capabilities and luxurious interiors with space to seat five occupants. Known as W108/109 models, they were constructed on an 108” wheelbase and the new S-Class saloons were much heavier than earlier models. The styling was updated using a thoroughly modern design featuring the attractive stacked layout of the headlights which was popular during the period. Although the 280 was usually powered by a 2.8 litre straight six engine, Mercedes-Benz rather confusingly added a V8 engined 280SE to the model range. The 280SE 3.5 had a 3.5 litre V8 engine and came with both automatic and manual transmission and power steering. These saloons were well equipped and extremely powerful. The 280SE 3.5 would reach a top-speed of 125mph and offered effortless high-speed cruising mated with supple ride comfort. Between 1971 and 1972 Mercedes-Benz produced 11,309 examples and they have always been popular with collectors and enthusiasts alike.The 300SE and 300SEL were especially well appointed, featuring burrwalnut dashboards, automatic transmission and power windows. When the eight cylinder cars were introduced in 1970, the standard transmission was the four-speed automatic box driven via a fluid flywheel rather than the more conventional torque converter however, buyers could specify a four-speed manual gearbox. This Mercedes-Benz 280SE saloon is the desirable model fitted with the 3.5 litre V8 engine mated to the four-speed automatic gearbox. Originally painted in Icon Gold metallic, it had a colour change in 1984 and it is now finished in black with Cognac interior and comes with the added benefit of an electrically operated, factory fitted, sunroof.The present owner purchased this car from a deceased estate and then lightly recommissioned it in April 2021 to get the car to start, run, drive and stop, although a full recommissioning of this rare saloon is necessary before being driven on the road. A great project! Interested parties should satisfy themselves as to the description and condition of each lot prior to the sale.

2007 Mercedes-Benz SL600 Brabus Transmission: automaticMileage:64369The fifth generation of the iconic Mercedes-Benz two-door convertible has the factory code R230 and was produced between 2001 and 2008. It features a retractable hardtop, known as the Vario roof and an active body control system which offers the balance of comfort and handling by regulating the firmness and heights of the suspension. From 2004 the model was updated to include a seven speed transmission which is superior to the previous five speed version.This impressive SL600 was first registered in September 2007 and has benefitted from additional body styling by Brabus and presents extremely well in black with a beige interior. This sleek cruiser is enhanced with a set of split rimmed alloy wheels. The stunning looks of this Mercedes are complemented by a good service history. Turn the key and the 5.5 litre V12 engine fires into life producing a glorious exhaust note and, we are told, is a joy to drive. Presented to auction with a V5C registration document, a current MoT test certificate and a file containing various bills and receipts. This rare example is well estimated and would make an ideal summer tourer.Interested parties should satisfy themselves as to the description and condition of each lot prior to the sale.

1990 Mercedes-Benz 190E 2.5 16V Cosworth Transmission: manualMileage:112077In 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.This lovely example of this highly sought after model is especially rare being right hand drive and is presented in black metallic with black leather interior. It comes with an electric sunroof, electric windows, electric front seats and cruise control. The present vendor replaced all the door panels and the bonnet as well as replacing the spoiler with a new one and then had the car resprayed in 2018. The car looks superb! The history file contains various invoices from past work including the latest expenditure of £1622 with Steve Redfearn Mercedes-Benz Specialist in Wimbledon. This car has been very well looked after and it is refreshing to see such an example in such wonderful condition throughout.Interested parties should satisfy themselves as to the description and condition of each lot prior to the sale.

2001 Mercedes-Benz SL320 Designo Transmission: automaticMileage:58375The in-house model name at Mercedes-Benz for the SL launched in 1989 was the R129 and it was produced until 2002. Launched as a two door, two-seater roadster with an automated textile roof with a shell like, colour matched powered tonneau cover. This new model featured many innovative details for the time including the option of electronically controlled damping and a hidden, automatically extending roll-over bar. Delivered with an impressive number of standard features and a removable hardtop, this new model was to prove a best seller during its successful 13 year production.This limited edition Designo example is presented in the striking colour combination of Alanite Green with a contrasting beige leather interior and is one of the finest examples we have seen. With a limited run of only 50 cars produced for the UK market, this low mileage, attractive roadster comes with its factory hardtop and an impeccable MoT test history and an impressive service history with nine service stamps in the book and plenty of supporting invoices. This car has been owned and cherished by the vendor since 2014 and used sparingly as a summer car. The hood was replaced in 2019 and the under bonnet sound proofing has been replaced. Presented to auction with a V5C registration document, an MoT test certificate valid until March 2022 and a wind deflector, this low mileage example has been well looked after by the owner and has covered a mere 58,375 miles from new.

1984 Mercedes-Benz 280 SL Transmission: automaticMileage:124757The Mercedes-Benz R107 was produced from 1971 through to 1989 and became the second longest single series ever produced by Mercedes-Benz after the G Class. Sold under the SL model names, the R107 replaced the W113 SL Class in 1972 which was in turn replaced by the R129 SL Class in 1989. The SL variant was a two-seat convertible/roadster with standard soft top and hardtop and optional folding seats for the rear bench. Volume production of the first SL started in April 1971 alongside the last of the W113 cars. Of all the engine offerings the 280 remains sought after with the smaller 2.8 litre engine offering plenty of power but with the advantage of less weight and thus improved handling. The SL Roadster has since become the epitome of what a luxury roadster should look like and can be found from Aberdeen to Antibes and indeed in every corner of the earth and wherever the jet-set congregate.This good 1984 Mercedes-Benz 280 SL Roadster has covered less than 8,000 since 2006, as confirmed by the MoT history. Purchased in 2014 with 124,300 miles on the odometer it has been fully maintained which has included having a new black soft top fitted in 2015 and new tyres at a cost of £450 each, which were fitted in 2016. More recently, during the last year, the interior was stripped out and the bulkhead repaired, the floors were treated, offside front suspension mount was replaced and a new battery fitted, at a cost of £4,000. It was also serviced and passed the MoT. This 280 SL Roadster is finished in red with matching red hardtop, contrasting light beige interior with the optional rear seat and is supplied with a UK V5C registration document, an MoT test certificate which expires in June 2022, and records going back to 2014.

2010 Mercedes-Benz E350 CDI Sport Convertible Transmission: automaticMileage:60000Historically, the E-Class is Mercedes-Benz' best-selling model, with more than 13 million sold by 2015. The first E-Class series was originally available as a four-door saloon, five-door estate, two-door coupé and two-door convertible. From 1997 to 2009, the equivalent coupé and convertible were sold under the Mercedes-Benz CLK-Class nameplate; which was actually based on the mechanical underpinnings of the smaller C-Class while borrowing the styling and some powertrains from the E-Class. A trend continued with the C207 E-Class coupé/convertible which was sold parallel to the W212 E-Class saloon and estate models. With the latest incarnation of the E-Class released for the 2017 model year, all body styles share the same W213 platform. The coupé (C207) was first shown at the 2009 Geneva Motor Show, while the convertible (A207) was unveiled at the 2010 North American International Auto Show.This superb example is presented in Graphite with grey leather interior. This car comes with a full service history and has just been serviced by the present owner. The leather front seats are heated and the car has the ‘air scarf’ fitted for wind noise reduction, front and rear park distance control and a CD player.

2003 Mercedes-Benz SL55 AMG Transmission: automaticMileage:87243The fifth generation of the legendary SL series of two-door convertible sports cars was known as the R230.

2004 Mercedes-Benz E320T V6 Estate Avantgarde Transmission: automaticMileage:20300The 2003 E-Class was larger than its predecessors while offering less interior space, particularly in the estate version, than the W210 it replaced.

1999 Mercedes-Benz SL 320 Millennium Edition Transmission: automaticMileage:76856Following the resounding success of the R107, the R129 Mercedes-Benz SL had a rather tough act to follow, and it still had to carry on the tradition of a fast and reliable grand touring convertible. The advantage designers had with the R129 was technology. By the time the final car rolled off the production line in 1989, these earlier models had been in production for 18 years with very little change. Therefore the new SL featured many new and innovative ideas, such as controlled electronic damping, automatically expanding roll-over bar and a more modern multi-link rear axle. In addition to this was a fully operating electric hood, windows, door mirrors and seats, which made this model easy and comfortable to operate. The SL boasted a more powerful engine and the stopping power was aided by anti-locking braking for added reassurance.This stunning metallic silver Millennium Edition 320 R129 is complemented by full black leather and a panoramic hardtop which is very desirable for this marque. Within the full book pack there is a service booklet stamped comprehensively with the most recent with Mercedes-Benz specialists Hampshire Service Centre in Fleet at 76,848 miles in July this year. The car has had just six former keepers in 23 years and feels like a low mileage and low owner car. Also in the history file are invoice and service schedules from Mercedes-Benz and an MoT test certificate valid until March 2022. Heated electric seats and the original stereo name but a few extras these Millennium Editions were very well specified with. This car is a perfect for top down motoring this summer with the added bonus of being a potential appreciating modern classic, just look at the R107 prices rising exponentially.Interested parties should satisfy themselves as to the description and condition of each lot prior to the sale.

2005 Mercedes-Benz C55 AMG Estate Transmission: automaticMileage:54699The C55 signified a return to AMG’s V8 roots, after barely a three-year flirtation with a supercharged V6. AMG found 8,100 homes for the C32, but the AMG engineers seemed much happier now that there was a serious, big capacity, naturally aspirated 5.4 litre V8 powering the meatiest C-Class and the badge is there to, well, to ensure the owners don’t forget. It’s not the performance, AMG claimed 5.2 seconds to 62mph for both C55 and C32, or even the transformation to a deep, wonderfully muscular exhaust note, but the makeover in the dynamics that stood the new sports saloon or estate apart. The C55 marked a small, but perceptible, shift towards a sharper, more sporting focus, that set it closer to the M3 than any previous AMG hot rod C-Class. This example is presented in silver with black leather interior. Originally registered in Japan on 1st June 2005, was imported to the UK and registered to its first UK owner on 10th November 2018. Owned by a Mercedes-Benz enthusiast the car comes complete with Japanese service book showing the car was serviced in 2005, 2007, 2008, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2014, 2015 and 2016 corroborating the mileage at 34,952 miles when imported, this is supplemented by its UK servicing showing servicing in 2018, 2019, and 2020 with mileage at 52,028. The UK servicing was carried out by independent garages for which invoices are available. With these examples air conditioning, electric seats, electric windows and cruise control were fitted as standard. With the values of the earlier Cosworth-inspired super sports Mercedes rocketing well into six figures, this pure-blood AMG is already a collectible Mercedes AMG hot rod, with blistering performance and that oh-so-inspiring and famous AMG V8 exhaust note. An awesome car which is also ideal for the family, what a great combination!Guide Price £9,000 - £14,000 Interested parties should satisfy themselves as to the description and condition of each lot prior to the sale.

1995 Mercedes-Benz E320 Sportline Cabriolet Transmission: manualMileage:84785Mercedes-Benz expanded the well regarded W124 E-Class range to include a stylish coupé version launched at the Geneva Motor Show in 1987, featuring a lower roofline and pillarless side treatment in the best Stuttgart coupé tradition. Built on a slightly reduced wheelbase, the interior was redesigned to accommodate four adults with individual rear seats and unique touches including the automatic arm that offered front seat passengers their seat belts and set the coupés apart from their four-door cousins. With open top cars making a comeback in the latter part of the 1980s, Mercedes-Benz engineers set about adding a cabriolet variant to the W124 line-up, extensively reinforcing the coupés bodyshell to make it more rigid, without compromising safety. In fact, there were over 1,000 modifications to the cabriolet’s body, including a system of protective head restraints, activated by a computer, in the event of a rollover. The hood was typically well finished, with heated rear glass and beautiful fitting, folding into the boot to completely disappear when stowed, while a wind deflector and power mechanism were two extra cost options.This lovely example of this sought after cabriolet model is presented in Blue/Black with a Mushroom leather interior. This Sportline Cabriolet comes with the extremely rare factory hardtop which was a very expensive option at the time and one which is rarely seen on the roads today. The car comes with electric windows, electrically operated hood and has a current MoT test certificate which expires in January 2022. The car is in wonderful condition throughout belying its age. A true retro Mercedes-Benz which is revered as one of the greatest family sports coupés and powered by the smooth six-cylinder, three litre engine, it is effortless to drive.Interested parties should satisfy themselves as to the description and condition of each lot prior to the sale.

The term SL-Class refers to the marketing variations of the vehicle, including the numerous engine configurations spanning five design generations. The Mercedes-Benz R107 and C107 cars were produced from 1971 through to 1989, being the second longest single series ever produced by Mercedes-Benz after the G-Class.
