This UK-supplied, right-hand drive Quattro WR has remained on a family farm for 39 years and is on offer at No Reserve. This 2,144cc in-line, five-cylinder, 10-valve Audi Quattro WR was purchased brand new in 1984 by a local farmer from Testwood Motors of Southampton. It was finished in Zermatt Silver with a Brazil cloth interior and was fitted from new with a sunroof and a Blaupunkt Atlanta radio/cassette. In 1995 (the final Tax Disc expired on 30th November 1995), he passed it down to his son at 139,000 miles but he chose never to drive it, storing it in a corner of a barn until recently. The storage area didn't let in much daylight and the car appears to be in remarkably original condition under the dust, the interior in particular benefitting from being kept in favourable light conditions.It's supplied with its original wider alloys on original Pirelli P7Rs which are uncracked due to the dark storage, three keys and the history file containing numerous MOTs, invoices, drivers manuals etc.On offer at No Reserve, this remarkable barn-find Quattro appears in good shape and would be great fun to recommission and detail prior to returning to the road.Specification Make: AUDI Model: QUATTRO Year: 1984 Chassis Number: WAUZZZ85ZEA900967 Registration Number: A288 0H0 Transmission: Manual Engine Number: WR005163 Drive Side: Right-hand Drive Make: RHDClick here for more details and images
Lot 117
An original ex-Metropolitan Police Daimler Dart, a rare survivor and restored to a Concours standard. An unusual departure for a firm more noted for its stately limousines, the SP250 sports car was Daimler's final fling before its acquisition by Jaguar. Aimed at the North American market and launched in 1959, the SP250 (originally entitled Dart) employed a separate ladder-type chassis on which sat controversially-styled fibreglass coachwork manufactured by Daimler themselves. Four-wheel disc brakes were an unusual feature at the time but unquestionably the car's biggest virtue was its magnificent 2.5-litre V8 engine. An outstandingly flexible unit, the smaller of Daimler's two Edward Turner designed V8s produced 140bhp, an output good enough to propel the SP250 to a top speed of 125mph. In keeping with the demands of its intended market, automatic transmission was available as an option.In the late 1950s, the Metropolitan Police had a major problem with what were called, 'Café Racers'. Groups of youths on motorbikes would gather together at a local café, put a record on the jukebox and then race their bikes along a set course, getting back to the café before the record had stopped playing. Accidents occurred and, in an attempt to put a stop to the practice, the Met’s proposal was to have a fast car that could actually catch the bikers. The existing fleet of Wolseley saloons was not up to the task, so they looked instead at sports cars, concluding that the Daimler SP250 Dart was the answer! This had a 2.5-litre lightweight V8 engine and was capable of 125mph and 0-60 in ten seconds which, for 1959, was remarkable. The Met bought 26 Darts between 1961 and 1964 and soon got them into service to be used as high-speed pursuit cars based at separate Traffic Garages situated over the London area. The results were impressive, with many speeding bikers being caught, and the number of fatal road accidents dropped. Unlike today, the idea then was that you see a Police car and thereby slow down - no stealth tactics for these boys.Borg-Warner Model 8 3-speed automatic cars destined for Police use were modified by Daimler with the fitting of a handle in the centre of the dashboard which, when pulled, locks the gearbox into second gear allowing a speed range from 0-85mph in a single gear. The gearbox normally runs in two gears only, with a ‘low’ ratio for manual selection if required and the slightly higher gearing resulted in an increased top speed compared to manual gearbox cars. The Metropolitan Police found this to be better for town work and high-speed chases, and it was also found to be more economical, avoiding the clutch wear that a manual car would develop with usage between 18 and 24 hours a day.Traffic police in Bristol, Cambridge, Liverpool, Manchester, Southend and Surrey also used the SP250 for speed enforcement, as did police forces in Australia and New Zealand. After the opening of the first section of the M1 in 1959, the Bedfordshire police used the SP250 for motorway patrol prior to the arrival of the 70mph limit in 1965.The sparkling example on offer here, 550 CLU, was registered with the Metropolitan Police on 1st June 1961 as Fleet Number 240T. It bears Engine No. 96223, Chassis No.102820 and was fitted with the optional Borg-Warner DG. Automatic gearbox, an AT Head Calibrated Speedometer and Pye Radio equipment.The Met disposed of 550 CLU on 30th August 1967, having been driven 97,325 miles in less than five years, and it was sold on to a Mr Killamsy of 2 Winter Street, London SW11 (copy record in file). It was subsequently purchased by Claude Kearley, President of the Daimler SP250 Owners Club (2007-2009) who commenced a photo-documented restoration including engine, gearbox and drive train to Concours standards. It became our vendor's property in 2016 and has been much enjoyed ever since, taking part in all sorts of events and is a multi-award winner including second place in the 2017 East Coast Run and first Place, Sledmere 2017. It’s been an NEC exhibit three years running and was to be an entrant in Zoute Concours d’Elegance prior to the COVID lockdown.When 'Oxford Diecast' chose to model a Police SP250 for their 1/43 scale range, 550 CLU was the chosen car.Supplied with the car are its V5C and previous ownership docs, a copy of the Met Historic Fleet Disposal Records, period copy photographs of actual use when in service, press cuttings, photos of surviving drivers (at 2013), MOTs, Owners’ Manual, accessories manual and more.Offered from a significant private Collection of British motor cars, this Daimler is a must for any collector/investor and needs to be viewed to fully appreciate the finish and detail that has gone into its fastidious restoration.Obviously this immaculate Dart can be enjoyed in much the same way that we all enjoy our classic cars but, in addition, it’s regularly in demand for meets and shows and would be welcome at events run by the Daimler and Lanchester Owners Club, the Daimler Dart Owners Club, the Police Vehicle Club and naturally local County Shows and Village Fetes. If that’s what you have in mind, this rare 1960s classic could keep you busy for the rest of your days.Specification Make: DAIMLER Model: SP250 Year: 1961 Chassis Number: 102820 Registration Number: 550 CLU Transmission: Auto Engine Number: 96223 Drive Side: Right-hand DriveClick here for more details and images

Meguiars Car of the Year in 2004, and described by the USA Cougar Club as the 'best in the world', this fabulous, UK-supplied Cougar Convertible really has to be seen to be believed. Initially developed as a rebadged version of the Mustang, the 1967 Cougar had a unique body design although still with the Mustang’s familiar 'long-bonnet, short-boot' proportions. Marketed as having 'European' styling and features and aimed more up-market than the Mustang, the original Cougar was the first Mercury vehicle with hidden headlights. It was also distinguished by a split 'electric shaver' grille treatment featuring vertical slats, styling that was reflected at the rear as well with concealed dark-lens taillights. In 1967, a higher-spec XR7 model was also offered with (simulated) wood-trim dashboard, full instrumentation (black faced gauges), toggle switches, an overhead console and, if so equipped, the automatic transmission was fitted with a T-bar floor shifter. 1973 marked the final year for the second-generation cars which differed little apart from a revised front bumper and grille, an updated fascia and power assisted brakes were now standard.This fabulous example was UK-supplied new in left-hand drive by Ford Main Dealer, Gates of Woodford, in May 1973. It's a late second-generation, 351cu.in, Cougar Convertible in XR7-spec, finished in Bronze Yellow with black, natural grain leather, Mateo vinyl trim and fitted with a power hood, power windows, radio and cartridge player.Its original owner had visited the Gates Ford showroom in Woodford with a new Triumph Herald convertible in mind but was confronted by a pair of brand new Cougar Convertibles, one in Bright Red and one finished in Bronze Yellow. Despite the fact that the Cougars were considerably more expensive than the Herald, his willpower had temporarily departed, and the yellow one was duly purchased. That must have been an interesting conversation when he got home. All was forgiven, we assume, as the big Mercury remained with its first owner in Essex until its purchase by our vendor. A passionate American car lover, he was impressed with the car's condition and originality and decided to take it to the highest level of preservation and presentation that he could.The results were and are spectacular. It was Meguiars Car of the Year in 2004 and still presents to the same standard and we understand that it's been acclaimed by the USA Cougar Club as the 'best in the world'. The comprehensive history file shows a complete owners time-line confirming the low mileage of only 38,600 and the car is accompanied by its original build sheet, the original owners Warranty Identification card from Gates, numerous magazine articles eulogising about this jaw-dropping Mercury and a multitude of show and Concours d'Elegance trophies.On offer from our vendor's small American collection, which majors on Lincolns, this Cougar has wanted for nothing in his possession and recently had a £3,600 service including tyres and a new correct 2300 Holley carburettor. In his own words 'It drives perfectly, silky smooth, effortlessly and whisper quiet.'If ever there was a car in our auction that you never realised you needed, this remarkable five-seat Cougar Convertible at a very sensible guide, could well be the one.Specification Make: MERCURY Model: COUGAR Year: 1973 Chassis Number: 3F94H501592 Registration Number: SGU 89L Transmission: Automatic Engine Number: 3F94H501592 Drive Side: Left-hand Drive Odometer Reading: 38548 Miles Make: LHD Interior Colour: BlackClick here for more details and images

One of the very last Phase One Clio Williams with only 48,770 miles, low-ownership and an impressive service history. Presented here is exactly the Renault Clio Williams that any enthusiast or collector would want to seriously think about owning. When the first owner had it in his garage for over 25 years and his address begins with 'The Vicarage', you know you are onto something. Supplied to him new by Renault Dealer, Bridge Valley Motors of Dorchester, in January 1994, it has a comprehensive service history and every MOT to corroborate the mileage of only 48,770. It still sports its original Renault dealer number plates, original Renault Owners Card, original stereo, handbooks, Williams F1 brochure and original parcel shelf carrying case.It was serviced by the Renault Dealer, Bridge Motors, all the way through to 2000 and then by Frodsham Motors, the Renault Dealer in Bridport. From 2007 C&A Rawlings, a family business, serviced it until 2018 and it was then sold to its second owner in 2019. Throughout this time, in addition to normal servicing, the wheel bearings, discs and belts have been changed (Cam Belt 2014 – 43,563 miles).In 2019, and with a mileage of 47,452, Safwat Cars serviced the Clio and replaced various seals and repaired the radio. ASM Classics of Sevenoaks in 2020 replaced the clutch and shock absorbers and conducted a full service. It had an exhaust in 2021, another service in 2022 and additional work right up to March 2023.With such a prefect timeline, just two previous owners, a full MOT pack and service history from day one, and all the essential original features, this cossetted little Clio is very much of the right stuff for its next discerning owner.Specification Make: RENAULT Model: CLIO WILLIAMS Year: 1994 Chassis Number: VF1C57M0510863291 Registration Number: L531 BRU Transmission: Manual Engine Number: 00C5616 Drive Side: Right-hand Drive Odometer Reading: 48770 Miles Make: RHDClick here for more details and images
Lot 146
A rare, second-generation, soft top example of Mazda's powerful RX-7 Turbo, freshly recommissioned and looking good - offered at No Reserve. Following the demise of NSU's Ro80, Mazda was left as the only major automobile manufacturer using the Wankel rotary engine. An entire range of rotary-engined models was developed during the 1970s, but by the decade's end, the RX-7 sports car was the only one of its type selling in significant numbers outside Japan. Powered by a twin-rotor Wankel of, nominally, 2.3-litres displacement, the pretty RX-7 coupé had debuted in 1978. Maximum power increased from 105 to 115bhp from 1981 - good enough for a top speed of 125mph, an excellent straight-line performance that the RX-7 combined with handling and grip on a par with European rivals. Restyled for 1986, the second generation car was fitted with a new, more powerful engine and improved rear suspension at the same time. A turbocharged variant was introduced in 1988, becoming available in convertible form the following year, and with 200bhp available was capable of a, claimed, 148mph with the top up.This second generation RX7 Turbo Cabriolet was supplied new by Charles Follett Ltd. in London on 15th May 1992 and is accompanied by a list of older owners up until it was acquired by its previous owner in November 2004 and subsequently our vendor in September 2019. There is a massive invoice file detailing work on the car from 1996 right up to date. (See Summary on file) and the service records indicate regular main dealer servicing up until 2001. Thereafter, work was covered by Rotary Engine Specialists with comprehensive invoices on file including the engine change in January 2005 by Hurley Engineering, a year before it was laid up.More recently, the car was fully recommissioned with all fluids changed and thoroughly examined. Numerous works were carried out which included a thorough overhaul of the fuel system, replacing fuel lines, cleaning injectors, etc., brake lines replaced, callipers refurbished and new OEM Mazda brake discs fitted with new pads, the wheels were refurbished and fitted with new tyres, the hood mechanism was cleaned, lubricated and refitted with a new rear roof section fitted, obtained from America, and underneath some rust was found behind the sills and the interior was stripped for a full repair with rust proofing.The paintwork is generally very good, and overall the car is therefore described by its enthusiast owner to be in excellent condition, having passed it’s MOT with no advisories. The Rotary engine was replaced about 12,000 miles ago and is very sweet. The engine bay is very clean with plated items, etc in excellent condition. It retains the battery cover, often missing. In the boot, the carpet is excellent with the correct tonneau cover, tool roll, wheel chocks and jack. Also present is the original black book pack containing the handbook, service booklet and instructions for the radio cassette. It even has the period Mazda sales brochure and a further service and Owners Manual on CD-Rom. It comes with two correct Mazda keys.A now rare Collectors' item, it is unusual to find one in this condition - an opportunity not to be missed.Specification Make: MAZDA Model: RX-7 TURBO Year: 1992 Chassis Number: JMZFC183200202499 Registration Number: J429 DYK Transmission: Manual Engine Number: 13BE078671 Make: Click here for more details and images
Lot 155
Fabulous second-generation Interceptor with recent improvements and an outstanding, comprehensive restoration. Jensen's C-V8 replacement debuted in 1966, reviving a name first employed in the 1950s. However, several of the firm's traditions were broken in that the design was outsourced to Carrozzeria Touring and the bodies made of steel rather than glass fibre. Early shells were built by Vignale in Italy prior to production being established at Jensen's Kelvin Way plant in West Bromwich. Power came from a 6,276cc (383ci) Chrysler V8, driving through either a 4-speed manual or 3-speed TorqueFlite automatic transmission, mated to an LSD Salisbury rear axle. Specification included electric windows, reclining seats, wood-rim steering wheel, radio with twin speakers, electric clock and reversing lights.Production of the Interceptor II (occasionally called the MkII or Series II) commenced in October 1969 and lasted for two years. This particular car has a chassis prefix, #123, so was one of 694 right-hand drive UK cars powered by the E-Series 383ci V8 generating around 330bhp. Pleasingly, it still wears its original registration number, HMK 6K, and from the history file we can see that it left the factory on 9th August 1971, finished in Silver Grey over black leather and optioned from new with Sundym Glass, Voxon Radio Cartridge Player, air-con, and Town & Country horns.The rebuild of this exquisite Jensen, undertaken by Kestrel Classic Cars of Redditch, Jensen marque specialists, commenced in 2013 but unfortunately stalled in late 2014 due to the owner's ill health, with the Interceptor not seeing light of day for the next seven years until the time was right to finish the build. Superbly presented in Stratosphere Blue with a full black hide interior, the ground-up rebuild shows excellent attention to detail throughout, setting this particular Interceptor II at a level that few achieve. The detailed restoration has left no stone unturned, including a complete, bare-metal body refurbishment, an engine, gearbox and drivetrain rebuild by American V8 Specialist David Gilliver, a total rewire, re-chroming by Derby Plating, a full retrim - in hide of course, all finished to the very highest of levels. The car has been sensibly upgraded for modern day usage including uprated cooling, a high-torque starter, an alternator and a modern air conditioning system.Previously purchased from us at Supercar Fest in 2022, the car has been further improved with the fitting of electronic ignition, electronic fuel pump, new alloy radiator and air conditioning condenser, as well as a rolling-road carb set-up to ensure the car runs and operates as well as it looks.Having been undervalued for many years, the Interceptor has recently seen somewhat of a resurgence with interest and demand for correctly restored examples increasing at a pace. Your earliest inspection is welcomed and encouraged to fully appreciate the lengths taken to return this elegant GT to the road.SpecificationMake: JENSENModel: INTERCEPTOR IIYear: 1971Chassis Number: 123/4228Registration Number: HMK 6KTransmission: AutomaticEngine Number: V2415123GDrive Side: Right-hand DriveOdometer Reading: 16741 MilesMake: RHDInterior Colour: Black LeatherClick here for more details and images
