One of the last hand-built Aston Martins number 45 of 101 to be made; this outstanding example is everything you would expect from the ‘quintessentially British’ motoring legend that is Aston Martin. It’s the sheer presence of these formidable cars that first holds your attention. In classic Georgian Silver it really is stunning and a joy to behold from every angle. Few cars, even to this day, command quite the same level of awe and respect that is afforded to this masterpiece of automotive design. Then you have the interior; step inside and you are surrounded by hand-crafted opulence. Sumptuous Connolly Leather in Black, contrasting beautifully the traditional wood veneers and chrome fittings, surely this is one of Aston Martin’s finest hand-crafted interiors? The final part of the equation comes in the form of fabulous engineering. Nothing else sounds like a hand-built Aston Martin V8, just turning the key and revving the engine is enough to make the hairs on the back of your neck stand up, but of course it’s out on the open road that it all comes together. Power, Beauty and Soul. First registered in 1997, this particular car has an extensive service history and benefitted from a major refurbishment including 4 new tyres and a Pioneer pop up radio/sat nav, she has only covered a total of 35,000 miles since new and was previously sold by Aston Workshop 6 years ago to a very discerning owner. This is a very tidy and very well maintained example of the Aston Martin V8 Coupe that drives just as an Aston Martin V8 should!With the production of the Virage ending in 1995, and for those customers who liked the look of the new Vantage but didn't want the brutal power of the twin supercharged V550, Aston Martin began to offer the 'V8 Coupe' which was launched at the Geneva Motor Show in 1996. This model shared the same chassis and body as the Vantage V550, with minor revisions to wheel arches, front spoiler and grille, and had basically the same interior. It also shared the same enhanced 5.3-litre V8 in fuel injected form, but without the twin superchargers, mated to a 4-speed Chrysler 'Torque Flite' automatic gearbox resulting in a more relaxed uncomplicated car but still an Aston Martin with 350 bhp and a 0-60 time of 5.9 seconds! Production of the V8 Coupe ran until 1999 by which time only 101 examples had been built, one of the last truly hand-built Astons before the factory geared up for Vanquish production.

1988 Honda VFR750R, RC30, 748 cc. Registration number F829 LKN. Chassis number RC30 2001744. Engine number RC30E 2001795. One of the modern era's few immediately collectible classics, the Honda VFR750R - better known as the "RC30" - was created for just one reason; to win the World Superbike Championship, a feat it achieved in the nascent series' first two seasons of 1988 and 1989. While American Fred Merkel was bringing Honda its first two WSB crowns, Britain's Carl Fogerty used an RC30 to win the TT F1 World Championship in 1988 and 1989 and the equivalent FIM Cup in 1990. No mere short circuit racer, the RC30 and its derivatives proved durable enough to win a hat-full of Endurance Classics too. That this latter requirement was also part of the design brief may be determined from the fact that a quick release front fork and single sided swinging arm - essential for speedy wheel changes - were part of an unrivalled specification that included a twin spar alloy beam, 16 valve V4 engine with gear driven cams, close ratio 6 speed gearbox and four pot brake calipers. The RC 30 was also the first production bike in the world to feature titanium alloy, which was used to make the con rods and no expense was spared on the rest of the machine either. Every component was the lightest and most expensive possible for a road bike and the result was a motorcycle which weighed a paltry 185 kilos. Six years later the legendary Ducati 916 would still be heavier. Each RC30 was hand assembled one at a time in the firm's Hamamatsu plant where the factory race bikes were built meaning that customers were virtually getting their own works bikes built for them. All of which did not come cheap; at the time of its launch to the public in 1988 an RC30 cost near double that of other super sports 750's. Despite the passage of time and the progress of motorcycle technology, the RC30 remains a match for the latest generation of sports bikes but possesses an exclusivity that none of them can approach, "No other bike from the late 80's is lusted after like an RC30" reckoned Bike magazine. Only 3000 of these machines were built. 2001744 is believed to have been of French origin and possibly had race history (French and German examples were restricted to 100 bhp whereas the Japanese examples had been restricted to 77 bhp). It was registered by BAT Motorcycles of Westerham on the 16th June 2003 and sold to John on the 18th December 2003; at this time it was painted silver, the rear mudguard has a Honda colour code NH 193P A for pearl crystal white and NH193H which is the normal multi-colour scheme. . He then set about a full respray and recommissioning, including a new speedo, indicators and mirrors. It is unknown what the mileage was at the time of purchase but the MOT's that followed list 2004 16 miles; 2005 668 miles; 2006 1,243 miles; 2007 1,814 miles; 2008 1,815 miles. It was then SORNed until 2016 on the 8th June it was recommissioned, MOT'd at 1,859 miles, 2017 1,964 miles. It was then laid up due his illness. Fitted with a new battery the bike fired up with ease and sounds very healthy although recommissioning should be undertaken. Sold with the V5C, V5, MOT's since 2004, workshop manual and various related paperwork.I spoke to someone recently who knew of the bike and he said that when my client bought it the colour was silver/grey with gold wheels. It is believed that these were provided by Honda for the track marshals at French circuits. My vendor only found this out after he had restored it. There is no paperwork to back this up though.
