Deutsches Reich 1933 - 1945 - Kunst : Professor Josef Wackerle: Entwurf für die Plastik "Amerika" für das Passagierschiff "Columbus", des größten Schiffes der Norddeutschen "Lloyd.Gipsrelief "Amerika" als Entwurf für die in Eichenholz geschnitzten Plastik für den Rauchsalon II. Klasse des Passagier - Schiffes "Columbus". Gips mit Terracotta - Tönung. Im zeitgenössischen vergoldeten Holzrahmen. 54 x 114 cm m. R. Bei diesem Exemplar handelt es sich um die in Gips gefertigte Urform der Plastik Amerika, eines von insgesamt vier Wandreliefs die Wackerle für den Rauchsalon II. Klasse des Passagier - Schiffs Columbus geschaffen hat. Die Themen dieser Reliefs waren Europa, Afrika, Asien und Amerika. Die Columbus war das schönste und größte Passagierschiff der Norddeutschen Lloyd, das nach dem 1. Weltkrieg gebaut wurde. Die in Gips geschaffenen Entwürfe dienten als Vorlage für die in Eichenholz geschnitzten Reliefs, die in die Wände des Salons eingelassen wurden (vgl. Abb. in der vom Norddeutschen Lloyd herausgegebenen Broschüre "Columbus", S. 40f ). Für dieses Schiff wurden die Innenausbauten von Prof. Paul Ludwig Troost durchgeführt, der sich bereits auf diesem Gebiet einen Namen geschaffen hatte, und der später auch die "Europa", das Flaggschiff des Norddeutschen Lloyd, ausgestattet hat. Prof. Troost hat für diese Aufgabe die besten Künstler der Zeit verpflichtet. Die Zusammenarbeit mit Prof. Wackerle war hierbei besonders fruchtbar. Die Columbus wurde im Jahr 1924 in Dienst gestellt. Das Schiff hat sich gleich nach Kriegsausbruch im September 1939 im südwestlichen Atlantik in aussichtsloser Lage selbst versenkt. Joseph Wackerle (* 15. Mai 1880 in Partenkirchen; ? 20. März 1959 ebenda) deutscher Bildhauer und Medailleur. Wackerles Großvater war Holzschnitzer, während sein Vater als Baumeister tätig war. Mit 13 Jahren besuchte Wackerle die Holzschnitzschule in Partenkirchen. Danach folgte eine Ausbildung an der Kunstgewerbeschule und an der Akademie in München. Mit 26 Jahren wurde Wackerle künstlerischer Leiter der Porzellanmanufaktur Nymphenburg in München. 1909 erhielt er auf der Großen Berliner Kunstausstellung eine kleine Goldmedaille. Von 1913 bis 1917 wirkte er als Lehrer an der Unterrichtsanstalt des Kunstgewerbemuseums Berlin. 1917 trat er die Nachfolge von Josef Flossmann an der Münchner Kunstgewerbeschule an und folgte 1924 einem Lehrauftrag der Münchener Akademie, an der er bis 1950 unterrichtete. Wackerle nahm an den Olympischen Spielen 1928 in Amsterdam teil. Bei den Kunstwettbewerben stellte er in der Kategorie Gemischte Skulpturen, Reliefs und Medaillen eine Medaille für den Sport vor, gewann aber keinen Preis. Auch an den Kunstwettbewerben der Sommerspiele 1932 nahm er mit seinem Werk Verfassungsplakette 1929 teil. 1930 wurde er mit dem Bayerischen Maximiliansorden für Wissenschaft und Kunst ausgezeichnet. Zu seinem 60. Geburtstag im Jahr 1940 erhielt Wackerle auf Vorschlag von Adolf Hitler die Goethe-Medaille für Kunst und Wissenschaft. Bereits 1937 hatte Goebbels den Reichskultursenator Wackerle für den Deutschen Nationalpreis für Kunst und Wissenschaft vorgeschlagen.

Deutsches Reich 1933 - 1945 - Kunst : Professor Josef Wackerle: Entwurf für die Plastik "Asien" für das Passagierschiff "Columbus", des größten Schiffes der Norddeutschen "Lloyd.Gipsrelief "Asien" als Entwurf für die in Eichenholz geschnitzten Plastik für den Rauchsalon II. Klasse des Passagier - Schiffes "Columbus". Gips mit Terracotta - Tönung. Im zeitgenössischen vergoldeten Holzrahmen. 54 x 114 cm m. R. Bei diesem Exemplar handelt es sich um die in Gips gefertigte Urform der Plastik Amerika, eines von insgesamt vier Wandreliefs die Wackerle für den Rauchsalon II. Klasse des Passagier - Schiffs Columbus geschaffen hat. Die Themen dieser Reliefs waren Europa, Afrika, Asien und Amerika. Die Columbus war das schönste und größte Passagierschiff der Norddeutschen Lloyd, das nach dem 1. Weltkrieg gebaut wurde. Die in Gips geschaffenen Entwürfe dienten als Vorlage für die in Eichenholz geschnitzten Reliefs, die in die Wände des Salons eingelassen wurden (vgl. Abb. in der vom Norddeutschen Lloyd herausgegebenen Broschüre "Columbus", S. 40f ). Für dieses Schiff wurden die Innenausbauten von Prof. Paul Ludwig Troost durchgeführt, der sich bereits auf diesem Gebiet einen Namen geschaffen hatte, und der später auch die "Europa", das Flaggschiff des Norddeutschen Lloyd, ausgestattet hat. Prof. Troost hat für diese Aufgabe die besten Künstler der Zeit verpflichtet. Die Zusammenarbeit mit Prof. Wackerle war hierbei besonders fruchtbar. Die Columbus wurde im Jahr 1924 in Dienst gestellt. Das Schiff hat sich gleich nach Kriegsausbruch im September 1939 im südwestlichen Atlantik in aussichtsloser Lage selbst versenkt. Joseph Wackerle (* 15. Mai 1880 in Partenkirchen; ? 20. März 1959 ebenda) deutscher Bildhauer und Medailleur. Wackerles Großvater war Holzschnitzer, während sein Vater als Baumeister tätig war. Mit 13 Jahren besuchte Wackerle die Holzschnitzschule in Partenkirchen. Danach folgte eine Ausbildung an der Kunstgewerbeschule und an der Akademie in München. Mit 26 Jahren wurde Wackerle künstlerischer Leiter der Porzellanmanufaktur Nymphenburg in München. 1909 erhielt er auf der Großen Berliner Kunstausstellung eine kleine Goldmedaille. Von 1913 bis 1917 wirkte er als Lehrer an der Unterrichtsanstalt des Kunstgewerbemuseums Berlin. 1917 trat er die Nachfolge von Josef Flossmann an der Münchner Kunstgewerbeschule an und folgte 1924 einem Lehrauftrag der Münchener Akademie, an der er bis 1950 unterrichtete. Wackerle nahm an den Olympischen Spielen 1928 in Amsterdam teil. Bei den Kunstwettbewerben stellte er in der Kategorie Gemischte Skulpturen, Reliefs und Medaillen eine Medaille für den Sport vor, gewann aber keinen Preis. Auch an den Kunstwettbewerben der Sommerspiele 1932 nahm er mit seinem Werk Verfassungsplakette 1929 teil. 1930 wurde er mit dem Bayerischen Maximiliansorden für Wissenschaft und Kunst ausgezeichnet. Zu seinem 60. Geburtstag im Jahr 1940 erhielt Wackerle auf Vorschlag von Adolf Hitler die Goethe-Medaille für Kunst und Wissenschaft. Bereits 1937 hatte Goebbels den Reichskultursenator Wackerle für den Deutschen Nationalpreis für Kunst und Wissenschaft vorgeschlagen. Er wurde als Künstler von den nationalsozialistischen Machthabern hoch geschätzt, sodass er im August 1944 von Hitler in die Gottbegnadeten-Liste mit den wichtigsten deutschen Bildhauern aufgenommen wurde, was ihn von Kriegseinsätzen befreite. Zu seinen bekanntesten Werken gehört die Skulptur "Der Rossführer" auf dem Reichssportfeld Berlin. Wackerle erwarb sich einen Namen als meisterhafter Brunnenplastiker.

Midnight Purple, V-Spec, 26 years ownership and just 12,500 miles from new is a hard combination to beat! The R33 is now rightfully seeing the appreciation it deserves and what an undeniably incredible example this one is following its major service. The R33 was surrounded by huge hype following the popularity and cult status of the R32 and was unveiled at the 30th Tokyo Motor Show in August 1993, with the public having to wait until January 1995 for the GT-R to hit dealerships. This stunning 1995 R33 GT-R V-Spec is a remarkable example that's been preserved amazingly well and is one of 805 Series 1 V-Spec cars finished in the synonymous Skyline colour of LP2 Midnight Purple. It has covered just 12,500 miles from new, untouched by modifications even down to the seldom-seen original twin-pipe exhaust, with the car retaining all the original Japanese safety stickers and decals, preserved in remarkable condition.As a 1995 car, it spent its first three and a half years in Japan before being imported to the UK by the Toy Store Motor Company in 1999, who converted the speedometer to MPH, when our vendor purchased and registered the car in their name meaning it benefits from single UK-ownership. The reupholstered interior colour change was undertaken during its time in Japan and complements the car nicely. Changing from cloth to leather, the original seats, door cards and handbrake/shift boot were re-trimmed, so to put back to standard would be a remarkably easy task. The interior features lots of its original components such as the correct GT-R chequered flag mats.The car has been in long term, temperature-controlled storage and, as is frequently the case, the original book packs and Japanese history have been misplaced, so its history is limited to its UK V5C and invoicing for recent recommissioning work. The refresh has been undertaken by marque experts, Green End Garage, and included the timing belt, spark plugs and all fluids to give full confidence to a future custodian. Little used over here, it has covered just 30 miles between 2006-2024, and will come to auction with a fresh MOT offering peace of mind. The car appears absolutely on the button both mechanically and cosmetically.It's worth noting that there appears to be an erroneous input on the GT-R Registry where it states the car is white, however, as shown by the chassis number and chassis plate, it has always been LP2 Midnight Purple.The exterior, in totally original condition with gleaming paintwork, features the impossible-to-source 'V-Spec' decals and GT-R badges, factory-stamped forged 17" alloy wheels, Xenon headlights and adjustable rear spoiler. Accompanied by its original GT-R keys, this low mileage R33 GT-R V-Spec is just sensational to drive. Having spent so much time in a temperature controlled storage facility, under the ownership of its single enthusiast UK custodian, this car has been preserved exceptionally well, a testament to the previous owner and an asset to the next. Road &Track Magazine summarised the R33 GT-R very well in July, 2019 stating 'It isn't just better than you'd expect, it might well be the high-point of GT-R heritage'.The R33 GT-R has been criminally underrated for a long time, sometimes subdued by the racing pedigree and successes of the R32 GT-R, and the cult-like following and Hollywood stardom of the R34 GT-R but thankfully, the Japanese performance car market has woken up and there is an opportunity to be part of it with this original, well-cared for, low ownership and incredibly low-mileage R33. We welcome any inspection of this example; it will not disappoint.Specification Make: NISSAN Model: SKYLINE R33 GT-R Year: 1995 Chassis Number: BCNR33006649 Registration Number: N210 SGY Transmission: Manual Engine Number: RB26 Drive Side: Right-hand Drive Odometer Reading: 12535 KM Make: RHD Interior Colour: Purple/White LeatherClick here for more details and images

Right-hand drive JDM Nissan Skyline R33 GT-R, sympathetically modified but remaining largely unmolested. Following up on its widely celebrated R32 predecessor, the arrival of Nissan’s R33-generation Skyline GT-R in 1995 played a big part in the model’s eventual long-term success. Just prior to its release, several major Japanese auto manufacturers signed a panic-induced 'gentlemen’s agreement' with the government, limiting new model performance rating figures to 276bhp. There had, perhaps, never been a more inauspicious moment to release a sports car in Japan. Nissan, for its part, printed official marketing materials for the R33 which did not mention that the engine delivered approximately 300bhp straight from the showroom floor.The R33 nevertheless debuted at an optimal moment in popular culture. Video games such as Gran Turismo popularized the Skyline and other Japanese performance cars of the era even in the US and other envious markets where the GT-R was not be sold. It perpetuated the Skyline GT-R’s nickname, 'Godzilla, the monster from Japan', earned by the R32 after stellar performances in early 1990s Australian motorsport, as car enthusiasts embraced Nissan as a force to be reckoned with. Indeed, the R33 would make appearances in the first few Fast & Furious films of the 2000s, and its R34 successor was notably driven by the late Paul Walker, further publicizing the Skyline GT-R name.Finished in Motorsport White with a grey interior, this superb R33 GT-R has been sympathetically modified but remains largely unmolested throughout with an impressive cockpit area enhanced by a carbon fibre pack and a well detailed engine bay should the show arena beckon. Mechanically, it still wears the original turbos on factory settings running through equal-length downpipes supplied by RHD Japan, fitted in 2020 with unspent gases exiting through a Blitz Nur Spec exhaust system. Recently serviced, the Skyline is running and performing well and it is clear to see that it has been maintained as required over the years by its fastidious custodians including general services and cam belt changes being adhered to as and when required.Other works carried out over the years are detailed in the comprehensive history file that accompanies the car. Currently running on a set of Enkei RFPi alloy wheels fitted with Yokohama Advance AD08 tyres, the Nissan presents extremely well and with the JDM market moving on at a pace, your early inspection is welcomed and encouraged to fully appreciate the quality of this increasingly desirable Skyline.Specification Make: NISSAN Model: SKYLINE R33 GT-R Year: 1995 Chassis Number: BCWR33005746 Registration Number: J222 DST Transmission: Manual Engine Number: RB26 Drive Side: Right-hand Drive Odometer Reading: 106600 KM Make: RHD Interior Colour: GreyClick here for more details and images

**Please note for clarity the car has an ‘untouched underside’ and no restoration work has been done since its import. It retains its original GT-R mats and most of the standard original parts will be in the boot/included in the sale. The Rays wheels were on the car upon purchase and in our vendors ownership, all work has been undertaken by J A Kit and Customs with the exception of MOTs.** Simply put, this R34 is JDM royalty. Possibly the most iconic car from the modern classic era, immortalised in film franchises and rightfully adored by all. With mechanical upgrades and JDM goodies galore, this R34 is running c.550bhp, yet looks undeniably OEM+. Offered directly from ‘The Well Timed' Collection.The Skyline R34 GT-R is highly revered by all, whether a JDM aficionado or not, one cannot deny their presence and popularity in the car world. Standing as arguably the most iconic Japanese performance car in history. Whilst many of the PlayStation generation may have first experienced the drama of the R34 GT-R V-Spec through Gran Turismo, it was its appearance in the Fast and Furious franchise that led to an explosion in global popularity for the R34 GT-R, with the late Paul Walker driving one in 2 Fast 2 Furious, enhancing its almost cult status.But it was in the 'real' world where the R34 GT-R V-Spec would cement its reputation. Described by Evo magazine as 'A warrior-class performer' in its 2007 road test, where a standard R34 GT-R was pitted against the likes of the McLaren F1, Pagani Zonda, Ferrari F40 and Bugatti Veyron, the GT-R’s reputation as a class act remained intact. While the R34 may not be able to claim the original 'Godzilla' title, as that remains with the R32 GT-R, the newcomer certainly carried the torch, and arguably the R34 GT-R has become the most iconic and most recognised car ever to emerge from Japan, especially in their late 1990s golden era. The R33 GT-R was a very good car, but many found it to be too bulky in design and too heavy to be a worthy successor to the R32 GT-R, which the R34 sought to rectify and did so with flying colours. Released with a shorter, sharper design and the performance to match, it’s safe to say the bite truly matches the bark.The car featured aggressive new styling, a stiffer bodyshell and a reworked version of the bulletproof and highly modifiable RB26DETT twin-turbo inline-six under the bonnet, mated to an all-new Getrag 6-speed gearbox and transfer case, although the electronically-controlled Super HICAS rear-wheel steering system was retained. Unlike some other performance cars of the 1990s, Nissan did not neglect the braking system and fitted Brembo brakes with 300mm vented discs. For a car released in 1999, the R34 came crammed full of technology meaning it was well ahead of its time. It featured a 5.8" LCD multifunction display in the dashboard, showing seven different live readings of engine and vehicle statistics such as boost pressure, oil/water temperature and throttle percentage among others.The V-Spec was introduced in October 1999, just nine months after the launch of the R34 Series I, making it an almost immediate upgrade over the standard car. While the Series I was a fantastic car, the improvements were thorough and ensured the V-Spec and V-Spec II cars are even more desirable. Changes for the V-Spec included an improved suspension system, featuring stiffer springs and dampers, Brembo brakes as standard, lighter forged aluminium wheels allowing wider tires, an active Limited Slip Differential and an improved aero package with a front lip spoiler and carbon fibre rear wing.Arguably the black sheep of 'The Well Timed' Collection, this R34 is simply phenomenal. Of the 11,578 R34 GT-Rs produced, just 1,238 of them were Bayside Blue (TV2) V-Spec Is, and this is surely one of the finest examples to reach the open market.This R34 GT-R V-Spec I presents in simply exceptional condition and has been maintained religiously throughout its eight-year UK ownership. Within the history file there is every MOT since its 2015 import and a whole host of Japanese paperwork including the original service pack, featuring an abundance of rarely kept Japanese maintenance paperwork, original Skyline instruction manual and three sets of keys. Additionally, there is paperwork documenting its upgrades whilst in Japan including the ¥915,000 (c.£5,000) sheet of fitted JDM upgrades including HKS, NISMO and Apexi parts amongst others, as well as their accompanying sales sheets. The bulk of the UK servicing has been undertaken by J A Kit & Customs, as well as by our enthusiast vendor.Our vendor wanted the car to be the best of the best, whilst retaining OEM/OEM+ aesthetics and fitted a host of upgrades including bronze Rays CE28 wheels, electronically adjustable Tein coil-over suspension, NISMO sway bars, an HKS turbo timer, new turbos, a Link G4 ECU and a host of undetectable mechanical upgrades (summary sheet provided in history file), which allowed marque specialist tuner, Martin Battye, to extract well over 500bhp from the wonderful RB26.With the way that R34 GT-R prices have skyrocketed comfortably into the six-figure department in recent years, this cherished, uprated, Bayside Blue example is surely the last chance to acquire such a desirable car for reasonable money, especially considering the 25-year import rule has now legalised the import of this car into the USA.Sympathetically upgraded to OEM+ specification, this GT-R looks, drives and is exactly what you’d wish a GT-R to be. They say don’t meet your heroes, but if you’re going to, you’d struggle to find a better R34 GT-R hero than this one, and we cannot recommend it highly enough.SpecificationMake: NISSANModel: SKYLINE R34 GT-R V-SPEC IYear: 1999Chassis Number: BNR34004637Registration Number: T84 GTRTransmission: ManualEngine Number: RB26-DETTDrive Side: Right-hand DriveOdometer Reading: 92000 KMMake: RHDInterior Colour: Grey ClothClick here for more details and images

And still we find them - one registered lady owner from new and just 14,975 miles, remarkable. Built at Subaru's Fuji Heavy Industries plant in Japan and honed by rally 'royalty', Prodrive, the Impreza P1 was always destined to become the hugely desirable modern classic that we rightfully see it as today. Built in a limited run of 1,000 examples, all were painted in Sonic Blue and using the WRX STi Type R as a base, Prodrive engineers installed the anti-roll bars from the European-specification Impreza Turbo, along with firmer springs and shock absorbers, to deliver a suspension set up better suited to continental roads. They were powered by a revised version of the rally engine with re-calibrated electronics and developing no less than 280bhp, 69bhp more than the standard Impreza Turbo. The cars also featured ABS, as well as the Peter Stevens-designed anthracite OZ Racing wheels, front spoiler and rear wing.On offer here is a very exciting and perhaps unrepeatable find. This P1 is a UK-supplied, right-hand drive example sold new by Keith Price Garages Ltd of Abergavenny, Monmouthshire in March 2001 to its one and only registered keeper, a lady who lived locally. It was enjoyed sparingly with less and less use as the years went on and as a result, the odometer read just 14,975 miles at the time of cataloguing. She kept the car for 22 years until it then came into the possession of our vendor, who enjoys a significant private Collection. He has not registered or used the car under his ownership and a change in direction for the Collection means that the P1 is now available for its next lucky owner.The history file includes the car's V5C (showing no former keepers), the dealer book pack with additional P1 literature, the service book with three stamps, some Tracker correspondence and a number of old MOTs. The car presents as you would expect for such low mileage and the original radio is included with the car. So rare is it to find such a low ownership/low mileage example that Octane magazine carried out an in-depth feature on the car, in their May 2023 edition.It's hard to find an Impreza P1 in today’s market, regardless of condition, so to find one in this condition with this provenance is almost in the realms of mythology. With soaring prices of Japanese Domestic Market cars, and 22Bs heading well north of £100,000 in recent years, this P1 may well be an unrepeatable opportunity, and is perfect for any discerning collector, enthusiast or purist.Specification Make: SUBARU Model: IMPREZA Year: 2001 Chassis Number: JF1GM8KDGYG003407 Registration Number: Y131 GHB Transmission: Manual Engine Number: 888492 Drive Side: Right-hand Drive Odometer Reading: 14986 Miles Make: RHDClick here for more details and images

As the ultimate representation of TVR's Speed Six era - and of Peter Wheeler’s vision for the brand - this unique T440R is a significant part of the Blackpool firm's history.  If you are familiar with TVR’s back catalogue, you will understand the significance of this car; just like with the TVR Cerbera Speed 12 sold by Iconic Auctioneers (formerly Silverstone Auctions) last year, for £601,500, we are thrilled to offer this incredible opportunity to own another genuine piece of TVR history.The T440R was created so that TVR could challenge at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, with the intention of securing the marque homologation and FIA Approval to enter GT1 Class Endurance Racing. Initially named the ‘Tuscan R’ (R standing for Racing), the project began during the late 1990s with the hope that TVR would return to the Circuit de la Sarthe for the first time in more than 40 years. With an entirely new approach required to maintain speeds in excess of 200 mph on the Mulsanne Straight, the T440R was constructed completely by hand with a specialist in-house factory team. Designed with the help of cutting-edge CAD/CAM Technology, the complex and cutting-edge advanced structure was both hugely advanced and expensive to develop, and was like no other TVR built before it, or since.With a naturally-aspirated engine producing more than 400bhp and weighing just over 1100kgs, the performance of the T440R was quite simply staggering. Sophisticated aerodynamics generated a drag coefficient of a remarkable 0.32 and the production methods included a flat-floor design constructed from resin-filled aluminium honeycomb. This structure was then bonded and bolted directly to the seamless tubular chassis and integral steel roll-cage. A separate, lightweight carbon fibre tub was then also bonded to the structure together with the carbon fibre bodywok adding further strength and rigid reinforcement.From this, TVR were able to offer (in theory) two road-going versions of this car, the T440R - with a 4.2-litre 440bhp engine, and the Typhon (which was intended to run a sequential gearbox and a supercharger, but never came to fruition). The first of the T440R examples, and always registered as ‘PN02 ZNG’, is the car presented here. PN02 ZNG was actually the second factory pre-production car, the first (a purple, or sometimes silver example) was destroyed at the factory.PN02 ZNG remained road-registered, sporting its factory 4.2-litre powerplant, and was the original factory press car which was used in the marketing literature and brochures at the time, and was famously driven by Jeremy Clarkson in his 2002 film, No Limits, which can be viewed on YouTube. Subsequently, the car was factory-converted into an interpretation of the envisaged race car (in DeWalt livery) and was displayed at Le Mans, as a promotional exercise, in about 2004/5, to publicise TVR’s (hopefully) forthcoming involvement in the racing series. Following this, in 2008, it was purchased by a private customer (through ‘Racing Green’), whilst being in the care of TVR specialists since 2014.Overseen by our vendor, it has now been fully restored by those TVR specialists, and is fitted with a brand new 4.4-litre Speed Six engine built by Dom Trickett at Powers Performance, the same company that developed high-performance engines for the factory. Its engine now is as close in output/engineering competency as TVR ever achieved, with the 'aspirational' 440bhp (which helped coin the model's name back-in-the-day) always proving hard to actually reach. It also has a new clutch, differential, shocks, close-ratio gearbox, suspension and many other parts, all bespoke to the car. The exhaust was built by the talented Ryan Edwards, whilst the door glass was specially re-made by the original manufacturers in Italy! Such has been the attention to detail. PN02 ZNG is now in better condition that it ever was, it's fit & finish is superb, the materials used are first-rate, whilst the engineers employed to reinstate it have had the time, budget and derived knowledge to make this sensational car as good as it could ever be.The car has been superbly painted in its stunning original Candy Apple Red and has a newly trimmed, high-quality full leather interior. A comprehensive photo file of the rebuild, plus pictures of the car in its original form at the factory, have been put together to record this historic build (available upon request).The provenance of PN02 ZNG is indisputable, valid and can be easily traced; indeed, David Hothersall (TVR CC), an expert on these cars, can vouch for its veracity. Please do enquire if there is any uncertainty or questions.With the TVR Cerbera Speed 12 having sold for more than £600,000 last year, this original T440R represents an incredible chance to own an immaculate piece of the TVR story for a fraction of that figure. One of the rarest (but entirely usable) cars in TVR’s history could now be yours.Iconic Auctioneers are again very proud to offer for sale such a car- a unique example of its type from an era of British automotive brilliance. For any serious collector or enthusiast, this is a remarkable opportunity to acquire this legendary motor car and, as its owner, you and it would be welcome and much admired at any high-profile motoring event anywhere in the world.PN02 ZNG was recently featured in the current edition of 'Classic & Sportscar' magazine: https://www.classicandsportscar.com/features/tvr-t440r-blackpools-200mph-road-racerand also on the 'DriveTribe' YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eqBS19coeBc(The first eight photographs here are used with permission from, and much thanks to, Classic & Sportscar magazine, part of the Haymarket Media Group, and were taken by John Bradshaw; and the Copyright remains with them)   Specification Make: TVR Model: T440R Year: 2002 Chassis Number: SDLGA18A92B001249 Registration Number: PN02 ZNG Transmission: Manual Engine Number: 0212P6402673 Drive Side: Right-hand Drive Make: RHDClick here for more details and images
