Lot 417
One of only 33 UK-supplied examples, two owners in total, just 22,000 miles from new and a full Audi service history.Audi AG’s involvement with motorsport seems fairly recent compared to their competitors Mercedes-Benz and BMW whose trophy cabinets bulge with silverware from many decades past, however, three of the companies that merged to form Auto Union AG and subsequently Audi, DKW, Horch and Wanderer, have very respectable histories in circuit racing and hill-climbs so the DNA was undoubtedly there. Not long after Auto Union and NSU merged to become the current day Audi AG, a motorsport programme was on the agenda and the name is now synonymous with success having dominated Group-A rallying in the 1980s, years of good results in the DTM and other Touring Car and Supertouring Championships in the 1990s and beyond, followed by starting the new millennium with three consecutive victories at the ‘24 Hours of Le Mans’, a race widely regarded as the pinnacle of motorsport.During these periods, Audi released sportier versions into the top-end of their road-going model line-up as a nod to the success they were enjoying in motorsport. The RS4 and RS6 were most notably well received and led to RS versions of most of the model line up, however, Audi didn’t have much supercar heritage until, in 2006, they took a bold step to show the world that they could also build such a car and the R8 was the result.The R8 is a two seat, mid-engine supercar positioned as Audi’s flagship model (a title it still holds today). It was launched in 2007 with two engines, the 4.2-litre FSI V8 and the 5.2-litre FSI V10 and uses Audi’s legendary Quattro four-wheel drive system which has been honed through decades of motorsport. It’s cutting-edge design, and performance to match, gained great acclaim in the motoring press and proved the car earned its place in the supercar arena along with the likes of Porsche, Ferrari, and McLaren.But can you make the best even better? Audi AG’s private subsidiary company ‘Audi Sport GmbH’ answered that question in 2011 by developing a very special model in-house which would be produced in limited numbers and named it the R8 ‘GT’. The brief in short was simple ‘more power, less weight’. Introduced at the 2010 Wörthersee Tour, the Audi R8 GT (coupé) is a high-performance variant of the R8 V10 and was followed by its sunshine sibling, the R8 GT Spyder, unveiled at the 2011 '24 Hours of Le Mans'. Limited to only 333 units worldwide, the R8 GT Spyder combines the aggressiveness of the R8 GT with an open top driving experience.At £158,145 when new, the R8 GT Spyder was Audi’s most expensive road car to date (over £40,000 more than the standard V10 Spyder). Specification highlights include a power increase of 35bhp to 553bhp, carbon ceramic brakes, and a traditional spring suspension set-up (that sits 10mm lower than the standard V10’s variable Magnetic Ride system). The engine frame is made of ultra-light magnesium and the soft top cover and the large side panels at the rear are formed from carbon fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP). CFRP is also used for the modified front spoiler, the fixed rear spoiler, and the new rear bumper and even the seats are made of carbon fibre which result in a weight saving of 32kg alone. Together, these components provide a weight saving of 85kg compared to the standard V10 Spyder and the resultant 197 mph top speed and 0-62 mph sprint time of 3.8 seconds make the GT a true supercar – but one you could easily use every day.The car presented here is a UK-supplied (one of just 33 we understand) 2013 Audi R8 (Type 42) GT Spyder, presented in striking Sphere Blue matt paintwork (a rare colour chosen by Audi for many of the PR images of the GT model at launch) and has been enjoyed by just two owners (in total), with our private vendor having purchased it in 2016. Naturally, it has a full Audi service history (see images; N.B. there is a typo written in the service booklet - the service at 6,506 miles should read 14/05/15 as per the Service History Certificate) ensuring that its highly conservative 22,000 miles have been enjoyed in fine mechanical health and the appearance and condition of the whole car reflect its fastidious upkeep, garaging and low mileage shared between just two diligent owners. Our guide price is truly attractive given all the factors – ability, rarity, history, condition, and sheer usability for what is arguably the world’s most approachable ‘supercar’.(The registration 'R8 XDT' will be coming with the car)SpecificationMake: AUDIModel: R8 GT SPYDERYear: 2013Chassis Number: WUAZZZ428CN910163Registration Number: R8 XDTTransmission: Semi-automaticEngine Number: CMPA001540 Drive Side: Right-hand DriveOdometer Reading: 22000 MilesMake: RHDInterior Colour: BlackClick here for more details and images
Lot 429
One of 83 examples of AC's pretty, Bristol-engined 2+2 Greyhound, sympathetically restored by our vendor and now ready for the next sixty years.When the last 2-litre saloon left the Thames Ditton factory in 1958, AC were left without a car that offered more than two seats. In response to what was perceived as customer demand, as well as encouragement from Hubert Patthey, the racing driver and Swiss AC importer, work began under the direction of AC’s Chief Engineer, Alan Turner, on a 4-seat GT Coupé, the Greyhound. The first prototype was given an airing, as well as its competition debut, at an AC and Lagonda Owners Club Sprint at Brand Hatch, which was quickly followed by the first production car making its appearance at the London Motor Show in October 1959. Sitting on an extended version of the Aceca’s steel ladder frame chassis, allowing space for an additional row of two seats behind the driver and front passenger as well as a decent sized boot, the Greyhound was clothed in an attractive alloy body not dissimilar to Aston Martin’s recently introduced DB4. The interior of the car was well appointed, with leather seats front and back, full carpeting throughout, ample instrumentation, and good headroom for all occupants.Most cars in the late 1950s still relied on live rear axles, leaf springs, and four-wheel drum brakes, however, the Greyhound offered a more modern approach with fully independent front and rear suspension on coil springs, rack and pinion steering and disc brakes on the front. In common with the Ace and Aceca, Greyhound customers were offered a choice of four engines and the all straight-six line-up included AC’s own 1,991cc 75bhp unit; the BMW-derived Bristol OHV engine in 125bhp 1,971cc and 2,216cc 105bhp form; and the 2,553cc Ford Zephyr engine which was capable of producing up to 170bhp when tuned by Ruddspeed. Whilst the Zephyr engine was the most powerful, purists rightful preference was always the smooth and 'revvy' Bristol powerplants as the noise, balance and feel was perfect for the Greyhound’s GT aspirations when combined with a four-speed manual gearbox and the optional overdrive.This remarkable, matching-numbers, 2.0-litre straight-six, Bristol-engined Greyhound has a lovely back story having been discovered and uncovered in our vendor’s late father-in-law’s garage under 45 year’s worth of clutter and dust. Purchased new in 1960, the car was used as a daily driver including visits to UK circuits where its owner used to race Aston Martins at club level. With the arrival of his new car in 1978, the AC was moved to the garage where it was to remain under an increasing quantity of boxes etc. until dug out by our vendor prior to commencing a sympathetic restoration. He planned to carry out most of the restoration himself using as many original parts as possible and given that the car was less than 18 years old and had covered just over 43,000 miles when it was put into storage, much of it was in sound condition. Invoices within the history file include one for c.£21,000 with historic racing engine specialist Ian Nuttall (IN Racing) for a full engine rebuild including modifying the engine to run on unleaded fuel.150 SPF was originally finished in AC ‘Rosso Chiarro’, however, small volume manufacturers used paint from wherever source they could find at the time and the exact code was not available so the car has been finished as close as possible to the original shade and now benefits from several coats of Red which retains a deep shine and looks fabulous. There are photos with the car covering various aspects of the restoration. The original bumpers have been re-chromed and are ready to be fitted but are currently off as to our vendor prefers the smoother bumperless styling. Pleasingly, much of the interior appears to have been refitted and the seating, headlining, dashboard, steering wheel and gear lever display a light patination from use by 150 SPF’s long-term owner, however, the red carpets are new. It’s the perfect combination for a sporting classic, a gleaming exterior and smart engine bay with a few little areas that show that the AC has lived a life.Happily, the car has a full history including old tax discs, old invoices (which help support the indicated mileage of 43,625), its original tool kit in the spare wheel well, original owners handbooks and manuals from when it was bought new until it was parked up in 1978. The restoration was completed in early 2022 and we understand from our vendor that “the engine is running well and the car is a delight to drive". This has got to be one of, if not the finest example of a Greyhound to come to market recently and with prices of the Ace and Aceca having soared in recent years, we can’t help feeling that the Greyhound is somewhat undervalued by comparison. With the striking looks of a DB4, 75% of the performance, 10 times rarer, yet only 20% of the cost, it looks remarkable value at today’s guide price.

Lot 460
Exceptionally rare, one of only 32 right-hand drive, 3.4-litre 'S' Roadsters and in remarkable condition.This, well-travelled, 150 'S' was initially exported to Lagos in Nigeria and delivered to its first lucky owner, John Bowman, who is understood to have been a manager in the oil industry. The records indicate that it was registered in the UK on a Q-Plate (QJ 3172) in 1964 and it's believed that the car was temporarily brought back to England for a short period prior to returning to Nigeria for a number of years before finally coming home around 1978. In October 1989, Mr Bowman sold the car to a Mr Tony Piacun who was in the motor trade which probably accounts for the sale never being formally recorded by the DVLA. Mr Piacun commenced a gentle rebuild which took place over 11 years concluding with the sale of the car to its current owner on 1/12/2000. During this time major mechanical work and an engine rebuild was carried out by Chris Forbes in Coventry. A large quantity of letters and invoices relating to the period 1989 – 2000 still exist and are with the car.When purchased by our vendor, the current owner, the Jaguar was indeed running and had a current MOT Certificate, however, after careful inspection he realised that the XK was simply not up to his exacting standards and needed further attention, a glance at our images will give a clear idea of the level of fit and finish that was required. Consequently, a further £20,000 was invested with Suffolk & Turley and R S Panels in Nuneaton who were tasked with bringing the car up to a Concours standard and, in that, they were patently successful. Our vendor has been most particular about ensuring the car is as original as possible, so much so that the only concession to modernity has been the fitting of seat belts. Everything works perfectly, the overdrive, the cigar lighter and even the clock keeps perfect time!Currently the odometer reads circa 73,500 an increase of 10,800 in the 21 years from the March 2000 reading of 62,699 and it's believed the overall mileage figure may well be correct considering the car's history since 1959. During the past 20 years, this impressive Jaguar XK has been cosseted and stored in a dry and secure garage. It has the benefit of a security switch hidden which cuts off the current to the electric fuel pumps and has been lightly used but regularly started and run up to temperature with appropriate maintenance when required. A right-hand drive, 3.4-litre 'S' Roadster is a very rare car. Only 32 were built with fewer still on the road and even fewer still in this spectacular condition. Your early inspection is welcomed and encouraged to truly appreciate this exceptional motor car.

Lot 476
A superbly crafted replication of one of the World's most famous, movie-cars.Whenever film makers tried to create an exciting car chase action scene, they were hampered by technical limitations like rear-screen projectors that took you out of the scene at the crucial moment. But then 'Bullitt' was released in 1968 with the most realistic depiction of a car chase movie-goers had ever seen. Bullitt essentially did for movie car chases what Star Wars did for science fiction films. That's because, unlike other movies at the time, the stunt driving was all real. There were no cheap rear-screen projections used for the close-up shots of the actors, and none of the scenes were sped up in post-production to heighten the sense of speed. They didn't need to be, because those cars really were barrelling through the streets of San Francisco at over 110 mph. There was a real sense of danger, unlike any movie chase before it, as the two muscle cars weaved through traffic and jumped over the hills of San Francisco, while the camera literally put you in the driving seat. The soundtrack is glorious too, and we don't mean the music soundtrack. Not a word of dialogue is spoken during the 11-minute long sequence. Apart from the scene-setting jazz score that does a great job of building tension before the chase erupts in a cloud of tire smoke, there's no music either, allowing you to appreciate the sound of two thunderous V8 muscle cars and their screaming tortured tyres battling it out. Bullitt set the standard for all movie car chases to follow, making it the most iconic and influential chase scene of all time despite the last twenty years of CGI, mainly because it's real and you can go to San Francisco and wonder 'how on earth did they do that?'. This 1968 Ford Mustang, Steve McQueen ‘Bullitt-style’ Fastback had some subtle upgrades to get it to the level of accuracy we see today. It’s supplied with a Marti Report which shows that it was an original Highland Green Fastback built at Ford’s Dearborn plant and sold by the Rebsamen Motor Company in Little Rock, Arkansas. Before leaving the USA, it was registered and used in California and a copy of the California Title is present. The car arrived in the UK in 2015 and is registered correctly with all import taxes paid.The paintwork is very good throughout dressed in movie-correct, Highland Green, and the exterior has front and rear bumper guards, screen sun-visor, correct inset sidelights, front and rear inset reflectors, original-style chrome mirrors and twin 2-inch exhaust pipes. The car sits on period-correct Torq-Thrust wheels with 225/55/16 Bridgestone Sport tyres. The private McQueen movie number plate ‘JJZ’ is also supplied with the car.The interior has been fully restored with movie-correct, black deluxe seats, woodgrain dash panel and door cards, and new carpets and headlining. The correct, four-speed, top-loader, manual gearbox has the Hurst GT shifter with a white ball GT gear knob and was refurbished recently. 3-point front seat belts and rear lap belts are installed. The 302ci V8 starts on the button and sounds great with its nickel-plated, ‘shorty’ performance headers and full X-pipe custom large dual Magnaflow exhausts. Steering is power-assisted and disc brakes are fitted on the front. The indicated mileage is 4,642, the MOT is valid until 03/05/2023 and there is a small service file with some bills.Here is your opportunity to purchase a very correct replica of the world's most famous Mustang - unleash your inner McQueen!SpecificationMake: FORDModel: MUSTANGYear: 1968Chassis Number: 8F02C114635Registration Number: TBATransmission: ManualEngine Number: 995235Drive Side: Left-hand DriveOdometer Reading: 4642 MilesMake: LHDInterior Colour: BlackClick here for more details and images
