Registration No: YF05 JHY Chassis No: WAUZZZ4E05N016987 MOT: February 2026Warranted 66,000 miles from newJust four former keepers and offered from a significant private collectionRare and desirable 6.0 W12 engine variant producing 444hpAccompanied by very good service history with several from Audi main agentsThe W12 Quattro was the range-topping variant of the full-size luxury A8 saloon, with the second generation offering a W12 option (as the first had), which launched in 2005. The configuration allowed Audi to build a 12-cylinder saloon with all-wheel drive, with conventional V12 only able to facilitate rear-wheel drive configuration. Audi re-styled the A8 in 2005, giving all variants a taller, wider trapezoidal single-frame grille, with the W12 also being the first model was to be offered with LED running lights. The naturally aspirated 6.0-litre W12 delivers around 444bhp via a six-speed Tiptronic automatic transmission with paddle shift, with the W12’s maximum 428 lb ft of torque and performance figures of 5.1-second 0-62mph time, and an electronically limited 155mph top speed.Manufactured in 2005, ‘YF05 JHY’ was supplied new to its first owner on the 10th of June that year by Alexander Audi of Huddersfield. Finished in Brilliant Black paintwork, this is complemented by Cream leather interior upholstery, with a brushed aluminium dashboard and the optional Burr Walnut veneer trim. The factory specification includes Xenon headlights, front and rear parking sensors, switchable sports mode, electrically adjustable heated and cooled seats, and a Bose surround sound system. The W12 was further optioned new with electric, memory and auto-dimming mirrors, leather trimmed steering wheel, forged alloys, electric front memory comfort seats, laminated glass throughout, rear screen sun visor, and keyless entry. Offered now having covered a very modest 66,000 miles from new, the A8 has just four former keepers.Benefitting from four new tyres in 2021, new front brake pads in 2022, and a new battery early last year, the Audi is entered from a significant private collection. Supplied new two sets of keys and a history file, the documentation includes the book pack in the wallet (including the owner’s manual, operation instructions, service book, and DVD road map), a collection of invoices, MOT records, twelve month MOT, and a current V5C document. Between the service book and invoices, the A8 has a very good service history with eight services completed and the most recent having been completed at 63,649 miles. Coming to market with the original tool kit and warning triangle and two sets of keys, ‘YF05 JHY’ is a rare example of the range-topping W12 engine A8 with very modest mileage!

A Second War ‘Battle of Alamein’ M.C. group of four attributed to Lieutenant A. T. Almond, 46th (The Liverpool Welsh) Battalion, Royal Tank Regiment, who was killed in action on 28 October 1942 Military Cross, G.VI.R. reverse officially dated 1942, with Royal Mint case of issue; 1939-45 Star; Africa Star, 1 clasp, 8th Army; War Medal 1939-45; together with the named Army Council enclosure, extremely fine (4) £1,000-£1,400 --- M.C. London Gazette 5 November 1942: ‘In recognition of gallant and distinguished services in the Middle East.’ The original Recommendation, for an Immediate M.C., states: ‘During the Battle of Alamein, at about 0900 hrs on 4 September 1942, Second Lieutenant Almond’s troop was ordered forward on to an exposed position subject to a lot of enemy artillery fire. Second Lieutenant Almond’s tank receives a direct hit from a large calibre gun. The tank, which was moving at about 10 m.p.h., caught fire and ammunition exploded. Second Lieutenant Almond and his gunner climbed out on to the turret of the tank but did not leave the rank until they had extricated the driver. Second Lieutenant Almond, although ordered to evacuate his crew, returned on another tank and managed to put out the fire sufficiently to get into the driver’s seat. He then started the engine and, although burnt himself, managed to tow out another tank which had been hit. He then drove his tank back, collected his crew, and returned into action after getting the tank into fighting trim. In spite of his burns and a temporarily blinded eye, he remained in action for another 10 hors under almost continuous shell fire. The determination, bravery, and coolness under fire which this officer showed proved a fine example to the remainder of his troop and the fact that they remained in their position materially assisted the success of the action on this front.’ Arthur Thomas Almond was commissioned Second Lieutenant in the Royal Rank Regiment from 102nd O.C.T.U. on 28 December 1940, and served with the 46th (The Liverpool Welsh) Battalion during the Second World War in North Africa, using Valentine tanks. Awarded the Military Cross for his gallantry during the Battle of Alamein, he was killed in action on 28 October 1942, on which date the Battalion was in support of the 26th Australian Brigade. ‘Valentine in North Africa’ gives the following account: ‘El Alamein, 46th RTR by now were also working with the Australians, and during the main Australian thrust on the night of October 28/29 were to attack with 2/23rd Battalion and secure the road. Unfortunately, things began to go wrong from the start. The final briefing was held very late, and Colonel Clarke returned without sufficient time to give his Squadron Leaders anything more than the barest details. The attack was to get under way almost immediately, and would be delivered from a start-line which had been chosen from the map, and which had not been reconnoitred. Some of the infantry would ride on the tanks, and others in carriers. The start-line was in fact, in the middle of a minefield, and on the way to it the regiments were subjected to heavy fire which caused the infantry to drop off. Several tanks missed the minefield gaps and became casualties. The situation became extremely confused, and the enemy fire rose to a crescendo. In the light of three or four burning Valentines the anti-tank gunners were able to pick off their victims from three sides at ranges up to 1,000 yards. The attack broke down into un-coordinated assaults which took a heavy toll of both tanks and infantry. Colonel Clarke and his Intelligence Officer were badly wounded by a mortar shell, and the Regiment was taken over by Major Offord. After a night of savage fighting, Colonel Evans of 2/23rd finally ordered his battalion to dig in at 04.00, 1,000 yards in advance of the original start line, The 2/23rd had lost 29 killed, 172 wounded and 6 missing. The 46th RTR had lost all but eight of their tanks and had a high percentage of their crews killed or wounded, including all the Squadron Commanders. The casualties sustained by the 46th and 2/23rd Battalion had not been in vain. After the battle, Rommel recorded that the British tanks and infantry had succeeded in blowing a gap in his line, cutting off the 2nd Bn 125 Panzer Grenadier Regiment and a Battalion of XIth Bansagliari, who remained in Thompson’s Post, almost surrounded by their assailants, resisting all attempts to dislodge them with a ferocious determination. In addition, the 125th Regiment’s 3rd Battalion had virtually ceased to exist by next morning, the battle having raged with tremendous fury for six hours.’ Almond is buried in El Alamein War Cemetery, Egypt. Sold with a fine portrait photograph of the recipient; rank pips; Royal Tank Regiment cap badge; a miniature M.C., a leather bound Bible, the inside inscribed ‘A. T. Almond, R.T.R.’; and a copy of ‘The White Company’, by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, with Bishop’s Stortford College Prize label affixed on the inside front cover, inscribed ‘Summer Term 1927, Form IA. Prize awarded to A. T. Almond’.
A plan of Knightsbridge from what Howgego describes as the 'largest and most important London map of the eighteenth century', on a scale of 26 inches to a mile. It shows Hyde Park and the Serpentine, with Knightsbridge, the Brompton Road and Sloane Street. Horwood's intention was to mark each house's number (a practice started in 1735), but this was abandoned as impractical. He started his scheme in 1790, expecting to be finished by 1792: by 1794 he was apologising to his subscribers (including George III); in 1798 he received a loan of £500 from the Phoenix Fire-Office, for whom Horwood worked as a surveyor, to finish the map. However this assistance was not enough to stop Horwood dying in poverty in 1803. Size: 56.5 x 52.5 cm. Condition: a good example. Published: London: 1794. Keywords: London, antique map, survey of London, Knightsbridge, England, Chelsea, West London, town plan, city plan, engraving, etching
