Lot 323
Simply gorgeous, 1930s Anglo-German creation and one of only 19.The result of an agreement between BMW and AFN of Middlesex in 1934Basically a late-thirties 327 built by BMW and supplied to Frazer Nash already badged as Frazer Nash–BMW, with Imperial instruments and in right hand drive. Fitted with the 328's 1971cc straight-six generating 80bhp (327/80)Only 19 were imported with around 12 believed to have survivedUnderstood to have been fully restored by the TT Workshop around 2005Part of BMW UK's Historic Fleet since 2015 and displayed at various eventsCurrently being recommissioned by BMW and will be offered running and drivingAbsolutely stunning but some cosmetic detailing would return it to a Concours standardBMW’s reputation as a manufacturer of sporting motorcars really started with the annual Eifelrennen event, held at the Nürburgring on 14th June 1936. Here Ernst Henne beat a field that included 1½-litre single-seat racing cars driving the prototype of what would become one of the most iconic sports cars of all time – the legendary ‘328’. The fact that this victory had been achieved only eight years after BMW’s establishment as an automobile manufacturer is all the more remarkable.Capitalising on this success, the company launched a new range of models that would become the foundation of their reputation as a manufacturer of the highest quality cars with power and style. The flagship of the range was the 328 which incorporated a lightweight tubular chassis and a powerful straight-6 engine with overhead valves and triple carburettors. Alongside the 328, BMW offered the 327, a delightful sports tourer based on a shortened, boxed, ladder-type chassis with semi-elliptic rear springs, a Hurth 4-speed gearbox and hydraulic brakes all round.The 327 was available with a choice of two engines, one was BMW's standard 6-cylinder but, for an extra few Deutschmarks, the car could be fitted with the 328’s 80bhp unit. This engine was the masterpiece of designer Rudolf Schleicher and although only displacing 1,971cc, it utilised hemispherical combustion chambers, inclined valves and twin downdraught inlet ports generating a very credible 80bhp in standard tune. This design had two rocker shafts, one situated above each bank of valves, giving the engine an external appearance almost indistinguishable from that of a twin-overhead-cam design but with considerable cost saving. It proved capable of developing even more power and after the war would be used by Cooper, Bristol and Frazer Nash with great racing success.In 1934, a cooperation agreement was concluded with BMW, which made Middlesex-based, Frazer Nash the general importer of these German vehicles for the British market and at the same time allowed them to sell the cars under their own brand name as ‘Frazer Nash-BMW’. The cars were built by BMW and supplied to Frazer Nash already badged as Frazer Nash–BMW, with Imperial instruments and in right hand drive. When fitted with the 2-litre engine, they were known as ‘Frazer Nash-BMW 327/80’. This arrangement continued until the outbreak of war in 1939 when, unsurprisingly, it was rapidly terminated. Only 19 Frazer Nash-BMW 327/80s were imported and, it's believed, only 12 remain.The stunning piece of automotive artwork on offer here is indeed one of those surviving 12. AFN imported DAK 760 into Isleworth in early 1939 and it would be wonderful to tell you that we know all about the car's history since then, but we don't as very little documentation exists. We do know, however, that it was fully restored around 2005 by marque specialists, TT Workshop, and judging by a very similar car also restored by TT Workshop, the restoration costs would certainly exceed the car's guide today. It has formed part of BMW UK's Historic Fleet since 2015 and has been displayed at various events over the years.Attractively finished in Midnight Blue over Cream with blue pinstripes, the car has real presence displaying none of the stately Teutonic pomp normally associated with pre-war German cabriolets, but echoes the elegant lines of thirties' Alfas with styling cues that suggest the work of those ‘swoopy’ blue and cream creations beloved of the French coachbuilders. The story is continued throughout the interior. Lavish Navy Blue leather and luxurious matching pile await you as you open the door and the whole thing is capped with one of the most beautiful dashboards we have ever seen with cream-faced Art Deco-style instruments and clocks surrounded by an array of Bakelite switches and knobs echoing the beautiful wireless radios of the era. The folding soft-top appears in excellent condition and the jack etc. are neatly stashed in the tidy engine bay. One can only imagine the reactions of people when this cabriolet was first released in 1937, it still draws gasps today. It’s a design that’s very much of its time, yet an enduring one. 32,586 miles are indicated on the odometer, naturally not warranted, and the car will be offered running and driving with the braking system currently being overhauled by BMW and general recommissioning works being undertaken. It's an older restoration with limited recent use and inevitably there will be certain items that may be inoperative, for example we have been made aware that the clock and cigar lighter are inoperative and the fuel gauge a little temperamental. There are one or two areas in need of further cosmetic detailing but overall this remains a stunning example of 1930s automotive elegance and your personal inspection is welcomed and encouraged.

One of only 15 Double Rs produced and the only one built with aluminium bodywork.UK-supplied and just 1,369 miles from new with its two ownersOne of only 15 Double Rs in total and the only one built with polished aluminium bodywork (£15k option, standard cars were fibreglass)Powered by a 400bhp, supercharged 2.3-litre Cosworth/Duratec inline-four, mated to a 5-speed manual gearboxOnly 510kg, 60mph from a standstill in less than 3 seconds, 100mph in just 6.5 secondsFixed seat position with adjustable pedals offering capacity for drivers up to around 6’4”Benefiting from recent work in Jan 2022 with Bell Sport and ClassicThis is a serious motorcar offering unbelievable performance and exclusivityWhen it comes to motoring and sports cars in particular, there will always be someone who wants something just that little bit different, a car that puts performance and fun ahead of practicality and day to day transportation. This fact wasn't lost on Colin Chapman when he introduced the Lotus 7 and a number of small builders have carried on the tradition with varying degrees of success. Amongst them are Caterham, Ariel with the Atom, BAC with the Mono, KTM with their X-Bow, a rash of Radicals and the car we have on offer here, the Brooke-Cosworth Double R Supercharged 400.The Brooke Double R originally started life all the way back in the 1990s when the company was known as Brooke Kensington, and the car was the Brooke Kensington ME 190.The company was sold in the early 2000s and its new owners completely re-engineered the car, to the point where there were apparently no interchangeable parts, despite the fact that outwardly the cars did still look quite similar. The double R was offered with a variety of power outputs, normally aspirated 200 and 260bhp and supercharged versions offering 320 and a blistering 400bhp.This is a Double R 400, not surprisingly powered by a 400bhp supercharged 2.3-litre Cosworth/Duratec inline-four, coupled to a 5-speed manual gearbox. Weighing only 510kg, it can hit 60mph from a standstill in less than 3 seconds, and 100mph in just 6.5 seconds. It features a tubular spaceframe chassis, with every tube cut on a CNC laser and although the seat is fixed, the CNC-machined pedals are fully adjustable offering a comfortable seating position for drivers up to around 6’4”.This very special lightweight sportscar is one of only 15 Double Rs produced to date and is in fact the only one built with custom aluminium bodywork, a £15k option as all other cars were fibreglass. The first owner kept the Brooke in a storage bubble from new during his 12 years of ownership and used it lightly which explains the low mileage of just 1,369.The second and current owner has also clearly lovingly maintained this special car and he has also used it simply for its intended purpose, absolutely memorable days out. In January 2022 it benefitted from recent work and expenditure at Bell Sport and Classic and is now 'on its toes' ready for its next lucky owner. There are details on file of the cars recent servicing and maintenance work carried out over the years in the accompanying history file, along with previous correspondence from the first owner on the build etc.This is an incredibly special two-seater sportscar offering performance most supercars built today would envy. Combined with the fact that this is the only one finished with aluminium bodywork, low ownership, low miles and recent work and attention, makes this a seriously rare and exciting opportunity.NB; The Cherished Registration Number illustrated (1 WOA) does not form part of the sale and the car has recently been issued with a fresh MOT.SpecificationMake: BROOKE COSWORTHModel: DOUBLE R 400Year: 2009Chassis Number: BR00KE239DSUP00ZZRegistration Number: WA09 OAPClick here for more details and images

A grown-up Mk2, the S-Type was the most aspirational saloon car of the period.The S-Type was a sporting saloon combining the best of the Mk2 and the Mk10With it's new independent rear suspension, it comfortably out-handled the Mk2 This is one of just 9,717 examples produced in RHD 3.8-litre specificationWith its original owner for almost 30 years, before passing it to his sonNow showing just 35,317 milesDelightfully presented in Regency Red with a classic Jaguar red leather interiorLots of original features, whilst befitting from an expert restoration in the 1990sA fantastic way into first-time classic car ownership, this high-specification S-Type would be welcome at any classic motoring eventProduced from 1963 to 1968, the Jaguar S-Type was technically a more sophisticated development of the Jaguar Mk2, offering buyers a more luxurious alternative. It was available with either 3.4 or 3.8-litre XK engines and featured longer rear bodywork amongst other styling and interior changes. Despite its extra weight, the S-Type's independent rear suspension allowed it to corner faster than the Mk2, especially on uneven surfaces, providing better traction and a much smoother ride for rear seat passengers with the consensus that the S-Type offered significant improvements over the Mk2 in road holding, safety and ride comfort. It was described as 'a convenient family car, a businessman's express, a sports coupé and a grand tourer.'The car presented here is a 1966 home market car in right-hand drive, 3.8-litre form, one of just 9,717 such examples and, with the manual/overdrive gearbox, the most desirable S-Type configuration. This matching-numbers car suits its Regency Red paintwork, working well in combination with its wonderfully original red leather interior. One of most well-preserved interiors we’ve seen in a Jaguar saloon of this era, it's a splendid space to occupy, benefiting from newer carpets fitted some time ago.According to the accompanying Heritage Certificate, it was manufactured on the 14th April 1966, and purchased by a Mr May, who owned it up until 1995, some 29 years, passing it on to his son who kept it until August 2021. It was originally produced in Golden Sand paintwork, but we understand was professionally restored/repainted in the 1990s (all areas of the engine bay and boot were painted well; there is no trace of the former colour). Bought by our vendor just last year, as he was just so taken with the one-family owner condition and sheer integrity of the car. Sadly, during the passing of time, the history file that once accompanied the car was misplaced and lost (the few pieces that remain include an MOT certificate from 1995 describing the car as ‘Maroon’).During the latter period of Mr May’s original ownership, we understand that the car was taken off the road and stored in a properly prepared garage for many years, being regularly run-up and cared for; its last MOT Certificate in 2003 shows a mileage of 35,129 miles (which is now just 35,400) with the car's overall condition suggesting this mileage is genuine. In the hands of our vendor, the car has been treated to some light recommissioning, and is said to drive and perform as it should. The 1990s restoration has held up very well, mellowing down with now a lovely honest patina in combination with untouched original elements. The paintwork retains a deep shine, whilst the underside is very solid and still retains a decent application of Waxoyl.Our vendor says the 3.8-litre engine always fires into life with three pumps of the throttle and a push of the starter button, with the automatic choke working well and cutting out once warmed. He goes on: "The car drives really well, it’s quiet and responsive and sounds just right through its stainless exhaust.”A fantastic way into first-time classic car ownership, this high-specification S-Type would be welcome at any classic motoring event. With Mk2 values now seeing some original examples out of the reach of many an enthusiast, the S-Type offers a more realistic chance of ownership. This extremely low-owner, highly useable ‘60s sports-saloon is worthy of any inspection and should offer many years of driving pleasure.

Classically presented and fastidiously maintained, this glorious red Roadster has covered less than 33,000 miles since its return to the UK.Built on 25/10/1967 as a LHD, 4.2-litre, Open two-seater (OTS) fitted with a manual gearboxDispatched on 14/11/1967 to Jaguar Cars, New York prior to being delivered to its first owner, the Executive Car Leasing CompanyReturned to the UK in early 1989 and converted to right-hand drive in MarchProfessionally repainted in its original Carmen Red by Sherwood Restorations and fitted with UK-spec triple SU carburettorsIts UK history from this point is comprehensive and includes service records, maintenance and upgradesMost recent service by RetroMarques on 15/07/2021 @ 32,092. Current indicated mileage is 32,274Supplied with a substantial amount of history included in four ring binders containing extensive invoices, MOT Certificates, tax discs and associated correspondenceAccording to its Jaguar Heritage Trust Certificate, Jaguar E-Type #1E16150 was a left-hand drive, 4.2-litre, Open two-seater (OTS) finished in Carmen Red with a black interior and fitted with a manual gearbox. Its build was completed on 25/10/1967 and it was dispatched on 14/11/1967 to Jaguar Cars, New York prior to being delivered to its first owner, the Executive Car Leasing Company.As is often the case, there is no history for the Jaguar whilst it was in the US but, pleasingly, its history since it returned to the UK in early 1989, appears to be comprehensive. Converted to right-hand drive in March of that year, it was then entrusted to Sherwood Restorations to be professionally repainted in its original Carmen Red before being UK registered on 04/07/1989 and MOT'd with an indicated mileage of 282. Although technically known as a Series 1½ (open headlights, black rocker switches, twin cooling fans, adjustable seat backs) the less desirable aspects of the US Series 1½ cars (twin Stromberg carbs, lower power output) were reversed returning the engine to triple SU, Series 1 spec.There is a very informative and detailed list with the car covering service and MOT dates and detailing important maintenance etc. and from this list we can see that two new manifolds were fitted on 23/08/95. By 10/09/97 the Jaguar had covered 7,523 miles and the following year on 15/07/98 it benefited from a major service and a new hood. The radiator was overhauled and new fans fitted in October 2005 and on 29/05/2007 with the mileage at c22,000, £5,766 was invested in a gearbox and differential rebuild by Quarry Motors, Moreton in Marsh, a new alternator, new clutch, new water pump, a brake overhaul, suspension bushes and a full service. Regular MOTs (10) and servicing continued with the MOT on 18/07/2016 showing 30,185 miles. Around 08/11/2016, Tony Williams Bodyshop in Malvern carried out work to both sills, the rear wheel arches and generally tidied-up the bodywork. This level of care and attention has continued with the most recent service and MOT by RetroMarques on 15/07/2021 at a recorded mileage of 32,092. The car's current indicated mileage is 32,274.E-Types pictured on chocolate boxes are often presented in Carmen Red with a Biscuit interior, black hood and silver wire wheels which is exactly what we have here. Purchased by our vendor in 1999, it has been enthusiastically enjoyed for over 20 years and 30,000 miles including many trips to Europe. It's accompanied by a substantial amount of history included in four ring binders containing extensive invoices, MOT Certificates, tax discs and associated correspondence.This is a lovely Series 1½ Roadster in a great colour, fastidiously maintained and generally 'on the button'. It appears very sensibly guided and we would welcome your inspection of this very special motor car.

An original bodied Alvis Firefly which features in 'Alvis Cars in Competition', an affordable route into pre-war motoring.Well proven pre-war rally car, having successfully competed on the 1998 Monte Carlo Rally and 1999 Le Jog yOriginal four-seat tourer coachwork by Cross & EllisVery well engineered pre-war motoring, powered by Alvis’ superb 1,496 OHV engineSporting model which retains a fantastic patina, presented in British Racing Green with beige leatherAffordable entry into VSCC competition, and ideal for long-distance ralliesExtensively maintained example, with recent works by specialists Fisher RestorationIntroduced in September 1932, the Alvis Firefly was built to the same high standards as its more expensive brethren. Notably low-slung, it was based on a 'double-dropped' ladder frame chassis equipped with all-round semi-elliptic leaf-sprung suspension, friction dampers and four-wheel 14in drum brakes. Utilising a 9ft 10.5in wheelbase and 4ft 4in track, the model was praised by the contemporary motoring press for its ride / handling capabilities.Powered by a 1,496cc OHV engine - essentially a four-cylinder version of that found in the legendary Speed 20 - allied to either four-speed manual or ENV pre-selector transmission, the Firefly was reputedly capable of 75mph. Available with a choice of saloon, tourer or drophead coupe coachwork, it remained in production until 1935 by which time some 904 are thought to have been sold.AXA 580 is a four-speed manual, matching-numbers Cross & Ellis Tourer. Extensively rallied by its two previous owners, it is both VSCC and FBHVC eligible making this a remarkably inexpensive route to pre-war Alvis motoring. It's been well maintained throughout its life so mechanically very sound and it's reassuring level of patination suggests it's been used and enjoyed rather than trailered to Concours. Full wet weather equipment in beige to complement the British Racing Green bodywork and an extensive history file accompanies this venerable Firefly along with many manuals and photographs of work and activities.Post Vintage Alvis cars are prized for their durability, performance and driving dynamics and this sporting Cross & Ellis tourer should provide its new owner with lots of fun amongst like minded 'Red Triangle' enthusiasts.SpecificationMake: ALVISModel: FIREFLYYear: 1933Chassis Number: 11085Registration Number: AXA 580Transmission: ManualEngine Number: 11539Drive Side: Right-hand DriveMake: RHDInterior Colour: TanClick here for more details and images
