1978 Ferrari 308 GTS - Desirable RHD UK car, recent comprehensive restoration by GTB Restorations Ltd - Silver with Blue interior, c.55,400 miles, documented history including original sales invoice - First owner: Tony Banks of Genesis, original registration number Considered by many to be one of the most beautiful designs of the 1970s/80s, the Ferrari 308 GTB was launched in 1975. Although the 1973 introduced 2+2 Dino 308 GT4 had nominally taken over the mantle of its namesake, the illustrious Dino 246 GT, the 308 GTB was in many ways the true successor to this classic design. Styled by Pinninfarina (the Dino 308 was Bertone's one and only Ferrari design) the 308 GTB was built by Scaglietti on the chassis and suspension of the 246 with a brand new 2926cc dry-sump V8 engine and most notably featured distinctive sculptured air intakes on the body sides ahead of the mid-mounted engine. Initially the cars were built with some fibreglass body panels (another first for a Ferrari) but from May 1977 all-steel construction was used. Long awaited, the open-topped GTS Spyder version arrived in March 1978 with a detachable centre roof section much in the manner of a targa rather than a full convertible. It did however only enhance the 308's delectable lines and the model then evolved through a fuel-injected version into the 3.2 litre 328 GTB/GTS until its replacement in 1988 by the less widely admired 348. By this time the 308/328 had become Ferrari's best-selling model to date, these sales including an Italian-market only 208 GTB/GTS 2-litre produced to circumvent Italian taxation laws. We are delighted to offer this desirable early production RHD carburettor example which has been the subject of a recent comprehensive restoration by renowned specialists GTB Restorations Ltd of Elmswell, Suffolk. A photographic feature on their website records their progress and gives testimony to the care and attention lavished on the car. A detailed summary of works carried out by them is also contained in the accompanying history file together with a photographic record comprising numerous images on disk. Works carried out included thorough restoration of the bodywork followed by a high quality and expensive bare metal respray to a 'piano finish' in the original shade of silver, attention to the blue interior including recovering of the seats, refurbishment of the wheels using the correct base coat and an engine overhaul which included the fitment of solid race valves. The vendor, who commissioned the works, has striven to keep the car as original as possible even down to sourcing a correct Carello headlamp replacement and correct vinyl to rejuvenate the targa roof section. New tyres were fitted all round including the spare and the original Ferrari labelled windscreen was retained. The all-important cambelts were replaced at the same time as the other mechanical work and the car has only covered a minimal mileage since completion. The odometer currently registers some 55,400 miles only. Understood to have been owned new by musician Tony Banks, of Genesis fame, FBC 564T has been in the current ownership since 2011 and is now only being offered for sale to help fund the purchase of another Ferrari. Offered with a detailed history file of invoices for past works and the recent restoration, original sales invoice, assorted expired MoT certificates, owner's manual, replacement service book, Swansea V5C document and current MoT, the car will also be serviced (again!) and checked over by GTB Restorations prior to being offered for sale. The original steering wheel, professionally re-leathered, will also be fitted. Whilst there would appear to be a plethora of tired LHD examples currently being offered on the market, a cherished and restored righthand drive carburettor model 308 GTS is much harder to find and we believe this fine example, properly looked after, should provide years of trouble-free enjoyment for the next owner.

1956 AC Aceca-Bristol PLEASE NOTE: This vehicle has an electric fuel pump.- The third Aceca Bristol built and potentially Mille Miglia eligible - 'Matching' chassis and engine numbers plus overdrive - Subject to some £10,000 worth of work during the current ownership - Previously fettled by the likes of Spencer Lane Jones and TT Workshops The Aceca was the Coupe version of AC's much-vaunted Ace Roadster and sold between 1954 and 1963. It had equivalent engine options and by the end of production 151 AC-engined Acecas, 169 Aceca-Bristols and eight Ford Zephyr-powered versions had been manufactured. Chassis BE573 has the distinction of being the third Bristol-engined example made, and the sister car to the 1957 Mille Miglia competitor BE572 and the Ecurie des Trois Chevrons racer BEX574. It is understood to have been dispatched to dealer Johnson & Brown of West Bromley on September 11, 1956, who supplied it new to a J Mansfield of West Horsley. Its keeper in the early-mid 1960s was Richard Harding of Hereford before it was sold to his friend Roger Searle a few years later, while the accompanying continuation logbook confirms it was registered to Swanmore Garage of Bournemouth by March 1969. A fine matching numbers example, `XKR 7' retains its original 100D engine but these days benefits from an alternator, Kenlowe electric fan, dual circuit brakes, collapsible steering column, overdrive, Moto-Lita steering wheel and Willans harnesses. Restored in 2004, it is finished in Silver and trimmed in Grey hide. In recent times this lovely AC has benefited from a rear suspension overhaul and the replacement of the radiator, wheels and tyres. Its maintenance has been handled by the likes of, Spencer Lane Jones, TT Workshops and IT Racing, with whom the vendor has invested some £10,000 since buying the Aceca in 2013. He is now offering the car complete with a collection of old MOTs and invoices, a spare set of wheels and tyres, and photographs of the restoration. He presently classes the bodywork, interior trim, Bristol engine and four speed manual gearbox as `excellent', and the paintwork as `very good'. Motorsport enthusiasts should note that BE573 is potentially eligible for the Mille Miglia retrospective. PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl. VAT (@ 20%)
2003 Mercedes-Benz SL55 AMG Brabus K8 PLEASE NOTE: The third service stamp mentioned in the catalogue is incorrect, however it is further stamped as follows: March 2010 (17,914 miles) August 2016 (18,492 miles)- Finished in Silver with Grey leather interior - 20,200 miles from new and just 2 previous keepers - Offered with an MOT certificate into March 2018 The mighty Brabus K8 was launched at the Geneva Salon in 2002. Based on the Mercedes-Benz SL55 AMG, it included a performance kit for the supercharged engine that raised output to 530bhp and stump-pulling torque of 572 lbs ft; the combined effect of which was an electronically-limited top speed of 186.4mph and a time for the 0-60mph dash of 4.4 seconds. The relatively subtle aero parts comprised a replacement front spoiler, side skirts that feature automatic illumination of the ground whenever the door is opened, and a rear diffuser. To further improve the handling, the Brabus version of the car is lowered by 15mm. The interior options included stainless steel doorsills with illuminated Brabus logo, ergonomically shaped sports steering wheel with airbag and heated rim, and genuine carbon trim. The very smart-looking righthand drive sale car's additional upgrades are understood to include 20 inch diameter Brabus Monoblock six-spoke alloy wheels, sports exhaust, safety roll over bar and front and rear mats. The big Benz is finished in Metallic Silver and trimmed in Grey hide. It has had just three owners from new, who between them have travelled no more than 20,200 miles - the car having been dry stored from 2010 to 2016, as confirmed by the service stamps that relate to March 2006 (4,782 miles), July 2008 (13,086 miles) and November 2016 (13,511 miles). `K115 HOR' is now being offered complete with original pack of handbooks and service record, plus an advisory-free MOT into March 2018. The R230 series or fifth generation SL was produced from 2001 to 2008, complete with retractable hardtop (Vario Roof) as had been available on the more junior SLK since 1997. The model was launched with just a 5.0-litre normally aspirated V8, but the following year saw the option of the SL55 AMG with 5.4-litre supercharged powerplant.

1962 Jaguar E-Type 3.8 Coupe - Matching chassis and engine numbers (cylinder block and cylinder head) - Supplied new by Western Motors of Bristol to A.E. Powell Esq and current ownership since August 1976 - Credible but unwarranted 63,000 miles shown on the odometer - Barn stored since the mid / late 1980s and last started in 2001 Famously launched at the 1961 Geneva Motor Show, the Jaguar E-Type created a furore. Its combination of supercar performance, superb styling and a low price tag left rivals reeling and customers clamouring. While, early sportscar racing success at the hands of Graham Hill and Roy Salvadori amongst others helped cement its reputation. Built as a monocoque with a front sub-frame to cradle the engine, the model's combination of all-round independent suspension (torsion-bar front / coil-sprung rear) rack and pinion steering and four-wheel disc brakes gave it excellent roadholding and handling capabilities. Fed by triple SU HD8 carburettors and topped with a 'straight port' DOHC cylinder head, its indomitable 3781cc straight-six engine was quoted as developing some 265bhp and 260lbft of torque. Allied to a four-speed Moss gearbox (with synchromesh on 2nd, 3rd and 4th), it reputedly enabled the low-slung two-seater to sprint from 0-60mph in 6.9 seconds and onto 150mph. While any E-type Fixed Head Coupe is desirable, the lithesome free-revving 3.8 litre cars enjoy a particularly exalted status. Dating from early in the production cycle before Jaguar responded to popular demand for greater comfort and refinement, they arguably represent the automotive icon in its purest form. One of just 1,799 Jaguar E-Type 3.8 Fixed Head Coupes made to right-hand drive specification, this particular example - chassis 860826 - was completed on 23rd August 1962. Supplied new via Western Motors of Bristol to A.E. Powell Esq., the two-seater initially sported the latter's personalised number plate 'AEP 246' but had been re-registered as '390 CFH' prior to entering the current ownership during August 1976. A mere five years older than the Jaguar, the vendor spent several months grafting on the then still expanding M5 motorway so that he could become the envy of his university friends! A sports car enthusiast, he treated the E-Type to a thorough engine overhaul (crankshaft reground, new timing chains, fresh 40thou oversize pistons, chrome plated SU carburettors etc) as well as sundry running repairs many of which are documented in the accompanying history file. A notably tall gentleman, the seller fitted alternative seats to give him greater control of the car at high speeds but thankfully retained the original Dark Blue leather buckets which are being reinstated for the auction. Taken off the road during the mid / late 1980s due to increasing business demands, the Fixed Head Coupe was driven into the first of the two North Devon barns that have sheltered it ever since whilst in possession of a valid MOT certificate. Last run some sixteen years ago, the 3.8 litre straight-six is stamped R7145-9 to both its cylinder head and block which tallies with the engine number quoted on the car's Jaguar Heritage Trust Production Trace Certificate. The same document also shows that the E-Type was initially painted Opalescent Silver Blue traces of which are still visible when the boot floor is lifted and the spare wheel examined. Opening the fuel filler flap reveals plenty of solid metal and, although by no means air tight, the Fixed Head Coupe's current Linney Barn abode seems to have been surprisingly kind to it. A potentially rewarding restoration project, this much-loved Jaguar displays an unwarranted but not inconceivable 63,000 miles to its odometer and is now ready to change hands again for the first time in forty-one years. Offered for sale with old-style V5 Registration Document, Jaguar Heritage Trust Production Trace Certificate, tool kit, jack and a wealth of old invoices and receipts etc. PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl. VAT (@ 20%)
1999 Maserati 3200 GTA - 64,600 miles from new as substantiated by its extensive service history - Replacement automatic gearbox less than 1,000 miles ago, book pack, all keys, Becker stereo - 1 of 266 Maserati 3200 GTAs currently known to the DVLA Unveiled to the press in September 1998 by Luca di Montezemolo, Sir Stirling Moss and Giorgetto Giugiaro of Italdesign, the 3200 GT proffered a heady blend of style, luxury and performance. Powered by a 3.2-litre twin-turbo V8 developing some 365bhp / 362lbft, the 2+2-seater could be had with six-speed manual or (from 1999) four-speed automatic transmission. Christened the GTA, the self-shifter was reputedly capable of 0-60mph in 5.7 seconds and 168mph. Circa 870 of the 4,750 3200 GT/GTAs made were UK supplied. Finished in Grigio Touring Silver with Blue leather upholstery, this particular example is described by the vendor as being in 'excellent overall' condition with regard to its engine, automatic transmission, electrical equipment, bodywork, paintwork and interior trim. Serviced by Maranello Sales Ltd of Egham before migrating to Scotland, the Maserati appears to have well maintained thereafter. Indeed, its extensive history notes sixteen garage trips including several cambelt changes, suspension work and the installation of a replacement automatic gearbox less than 1,000 miles ago. Riding on Black-painted alloy wheels and understood to have covered just 64,600 miles from new, this rakishly handsome 3200 GTA is offered for sale with the aforementioned paperwork, book pack, all keys, Becker stereo and MOT certificate valid until December 2017.

1978 Porsche 911 SC This interesting righthand drive 911 SC has been the subject of a retro makeover by marque specialists Linstone Classics of Salisbury. Its original bonnet and wings have been replaced by earlier metal ones and the engine cover and bumpers by 2.7 RS-style fibreglass examples. The Porsche nowadays rides on 16 inch Fuchs 911 turbo wheels, while the interior benefits from period-type bucket seats and a Momo Prototipo steering wheel. The vendor acquired the car in 2012, since when it has been exclusively serviced and maintained by renowned specialist Tuthill Porsche of Wardington near Banbury. This has included the replacement of the camshaft, clutch, flywheel and front brake calipers, and discs and pads all round. Minor leaks have been cured courtesy of new gaskets and seals and the 915 manual gearbox has been improved by the addition of one of Tuthill's short-shift kits. The most recent service took place in November last year - some 500 miles ago, and `BOF 617T' is now displaying an entirely feasible but unwarranted 128,000 miles from new. The vendor presently classifies the modified bodywork, Silver paintwork, Black interior trim, 3.0-litre engine and five-speed manual gearbox as all being in `good' condition, and is offering the 911 complete with service book stamped from new through to 2002, and an MOT valid into November.
