A lovingly-restored, very well cared-for example of America’s most recognisable muscle car, presented in fabulous condition.From its VIN number, we can establish that this Mustang is a Hardtop (coupe) built in 1966 in San Jose and is an A code car meaning that it was optioned with the 225bhp, 289ci, 4-valve V8.It’s in outstanding mechanical condition, owing partly to its careful refurbishment in Texas before being brought into the UK. Finished in Silver Blue Poly, it’s fitted with the 3-speed automatic gearbox and was optioned from new with the GT Equipment Package.Mechanically, the car benefits from a recent engine rebuild in 2022 with American car specialists, Tornado Automotive, Buckinghamshire, with over £5,000 invested. During our vendor’s eight-year ownership, it has always been looked after, serviced and maintained by Tornado with a no-expense spared approach, including yearly servicing and MOT testing for peace of mind, despite being exempt.Beyond its impressive mechanical prowess, the car cosmetically presents remarkably well. Just prior to its arrival in the UK in 2015, it went through a thorough refurbishment by Fontain/Alex Green, 'The Mustang Specialist', which entailed a hugely impressive list of jobs, all on file. The car was fully resprayed in Silver Blue including the engine bay, body, and boot. The list is significant and needs to be read to understand the extent of the parts and labour that went into this mini-restoration. Unusually, for a car from the US, its history is well documented and can be traced back to Texas with a plethora of bills and invoices on file for work undertaken.The Mustang is an emblem of automotive history and an icon of American muscle. Its legendary status and popularity are well-deserved, as it offered a unique blend of performance, style and affordability. This particular Mustang, with its outstanding mechanical and cosmetic condition, stands as a testament to the enduring appeal of the model and is offered at a very sensible guide.SpecificationMake: FORDModel: MUSTANG GTYear: 1966Chassis Number: 6R07A233061Registration Number: UCA 378DTransmission: AutomaticEngine Number: A-CodeDrive Side: Left-hand DriveOdometer Reading: 56360 MilesMake: Only LHDInterior Colour: Deluxe Pony CreamClick here for more details and images

Lot 739

An original UK-supplied, right-hand drive, manual gearbox V12, carefully restored in the past.A decade after the original Jaguar E-type arrived, the design progressively matured through 1971 with the introduction of the Series 3. Designed to showcase the new smooth and torquey 5.3-litre engine, originally developed for Le Mans, the Series 3 cars were available as a Roadster (convertible) or a 2+2 Coupe. The Series 3 is easily identifiable by its large cross-slatted front grille, flared wheel arches, wider tyres, a larger bonnet bulge, updated bumpers, four exhaust tips and a badge on the rear that proclaims it to be a V12. It also featured uprated brakes, power steering as standard and a large horizontal scoop added to the underside of the bonnet to assist with cooling. The interior was entirely new in the V12, with more comfortable seating, stylish new door panels and a smaller dished and leather-rimmed steering wheel. Being slightly larger and altogether much softer in nature, the E-type in Series 3 form had lost the wildness of its youth but gained the long-legged touring profile, to which it was arguably better suited.On offer here is an original UK-registered, right-hand drive Series 3 Roadster finished in Opalescent Silver with red hide and a black roof, complemented by the almost obligatory set of chrome wire wheels. Rolling off the production line in December 1971, the Jaguar was initially supplied through Ritchie’s of Glasgow and first registered with the very interesting registration number ‘7R’ which unfortunately no longer remains with the vehicle, however the present private registration, PDO 94, is to remain assigned to the E-Type once sold, an attractive addition. Restored some years ago to a very high standard, the Jaguar remains in outstanding condition throughout. The exterior paintwork is almost blemish free with the interior looking as if it has been freshly retrimmed. Mechanically we understand that it runs and drives superbly, underlined by bills and invoices detailing regular care and maintenance in recent years, including detailed paperwork from Corton-Miller of Boston, Lincolnshire, classic car specialists and tuning experts. Also in the history file are older registration documents, previous MOT Certificates, and a Heritage Certificate issued in 2021, as well as the original Handbook and Passport to Service.Finished in one of the most pleasing of E-Type colour schemes and with the desirable manual gearbox, PDO 94 is ready to enjoyed once again by its next custodian, be that at the local Classic Car Show or pressed into use as the Grand Tourer that it was always intended to be.SpecificationMake: JAGUARModel: SERIES 3 V12 ROADSTERYear: 1971Chassis Number: 1S1170Registration Number: PDO 94Transmission: ManualDrive Side: Right-hand DriveMake: RHDInterior Colour: Red HideClick here for more details and images

.**The registration number in the catalogue and photos (SVX 1) is incorrect. It is X1 SVX. This is not included in the sale but is available for purchase by separate negotiation. If it is not purchased the vendor will apply for a new V5**One owner and just 235 recorded miles. One of just 300 examples to be built, with only 90 produced for the home market. In November 2008, Land Rover first announced its limited-edition Defender SVX. Built to celebrate the British marque’s 60th anniversary, the Defender SVX was available in both 90 soft-top and 90 station wagon versions.This is one of 300 examples built worldwide, and only 90 cars in total came to the UK. The SVX shares its mechanical layout with the standard Defender, including the same recently-revised (as of 2008) 2.4-litre four-cylinder Ford turbodiesel engine. Offered exclusively in metallic black paintwork, the SVX featured subtle satin-black graphics, special badging, silver finish for the tubular side-steps, the front grille and new clear-lens headlamps. Additionally, all SVX models were equipped with new five-spoke alloy wheels, a reinforced aluminium front under-shield and clear LED rear lights. On the inside, the SVX boasted custom-designed Recaro front seats, an iPod cradle and Garmin satellite navigation, alloy gear knobs, a new audio system, and an individually numbered plaque. It was flatter-riding than any previous Defender courtesy of some subtle, SVX-only improvements to the damping, making it much more comfortable.Build number #167, offered here, was supplied new by Taunton Land Rover on 31st October 2008 and has subsequently formed part of a Land Rover enthusiast's private Collection, accumulating just 235 miles since. Elegantly-presented in a striking Santorini Black finish, this Defender 90 SVX Soft Top has been fitted with a bespoke roll cage in the interests of safetyWell maintained and obviously cherished, this exceptional low-mileage Defender 90 SVX is supplied with its original SVX-embossed book pack and Owners Manuals,  a excellent opportunity for enthusiasts and collectors alike.Please note that registration number shown - SVX 1 - is available for a separate negotiation after the sale.SpecificationMake: LAND ROVERModel: DEFENDERYear: 2008Chassis Number: SALLDVAS79A771509Registration Number: SVX 1Transmission: ManualEngine Number: 080917031543244DT Drive Side: Right-hand DriveOdometer Reading: 235 MilesClick here for more details and images

Lot 634

**Please note the car has just been issued with a fresh MOT, with no advisories** A low-ownership, E30 M3 fitted new with the 2.5 S3 Sport Engine by AC Schnitzer.  The pedigree of the original E30 M3 is obvious all the way from its race-bred four-cylinder engine (designed to rev past ,not a new M3, could hope to match. Admittedly today's M3 has double the power but it isn't all about bhp. To really understand the M3, you need to get behind the wheel and drive one, and really drive it. Head down and fully focussed and you'll be approaching automotive nirvana, safe in the knowledge that the car is so delightfully well-balanced that it will forgive any momentary lapse of talent and quietly sort itself out. It’s easy to see why, in its short life, the E30 M3 won a dozen Touring Car Championships across the globe and is often regarded as BMW’s finest sporting saloon ever.Offered here is a really interesting example that’s fresh to market being offered from long-term private ownership. Its first owner was based in Germany and, as was an option at the time, he took it straight to BMW specialists, A.C. Schnitzer, who upgraded the engine to their 2.5-litre, ‘S3 Sport’ specification complete with their bespoke exhaust system,suspension and uprated Motronic ECU.Our vendor, the car’s current owner, bought the M3 in October 1997 shortly after it had been imported to the UK and it has remained in his care ever since. It’s superbly finished in Brilliant Red with an Anthracite Uberkaro Grey Sport fabric interior and the odometer, at the time of cataloguing, was showing just 89,900km (55,861 miles).The owner’s business is running and preparing BMW race cars combined with specialising in BMW engine rebuilds so he knows a thing or two when it comes to spotting the right car and looking after it properly. Indeed, he recently decided to inspect and reassemble the engine ensuring that the car is fresh and on the button for its next lucky owner, and there are full details of this work in the accompanying history file. Described as near immaculate and highly original by our vendor, its looks are enhanced by freshly refurbished alloy wheels painted Nogaro Silver to ‘Evo Sport’ specification.This is a real enthusiast’s example that has clearly been well-looked after and benefits from the Schnitzer 2.5-litre upgrades along with the recent engine refresh. Realistically guided, this is a great entry into E30 M3 ownership and to be enjoyed doing the things that M3s do best. We welcome any inspection of this modern-classic to fully appreciate the quality on offer.SpecificationMake: BMWModel: E30 M3Year: 1989Chassis Number: WBSAK05080AE40934Registration Number: G819 SGNTransmission: ManualEngine Number: K1767000 Drive Side: Left-hand DriveOdometer Reading: 89800 KMMake: Only LHDInterior Colour: Anthracite Uberkaro Grey Sport FabricClick here for more details and images

Lot 701

The Professionals Capris are offered as a pair and as one Lot in recognition of their cultural significance and historical importance.By the mid-1970s, most of the flamboyant British spy shows had been decommissioned in favour of grittier crime-action dramas filmed on location with live action car chases. The Sweeney’s debut in 1975 set the standard for real life action-dramas, pubs replaced casinos, gone were exaggerated karate chops and rep-mobile saloons screeched around grimy street corners. British police departments didn’t issue Aston Martins, and few blue-collar sports coupés were affordable or reliable enough to be featured regularly. The producer and screen writer, Brian Clemens, who was behind the definitive British spy series , The Avengers, back in 1961, had just seen his 1975 re-launch end after two years. Although The New Avengers had live action scenes to rival American imports, audiences failed to connect with the outlandish plots, but did appreciate the cars. The deal with British Leyland to supply the cars for the series was ground-breaking, a marketing masterstroke, but reliability issues caused problems and the continuity department had to deal with replacement cars, often in different colours.Ever the innovator, Brian Clemens could see that audiences were tiring of the cops and robbers formula and, with the realities of domestic terrorism a daily threat and foreign atrocities widely reported, The Professionals was launched in 1977 against the backdrop of the Cold War. The two heroes, who were neither police officers or members of the security services, were instructed by the Home Secretary to use any means to deal with crimes of a serious nature. The fictional department, Criminal Intelligence-5, was headed by George Cowley, and our heroes, Ray Doyle and William Bodie, were his best operatives. Doyle, an ex-detective constable who worked the seedier parts of London, partnered with Bodie, a former member of the SAS.Their regional accents and high-street style connected with audiences and, for the first time on British TV, there were heroes that were both relatable and inspirational. The conversation in the typing pool (this was 1980) discussed who was the sexiest out of the two, and lads in pubs admired the cars and the driving. Having learned the significance of a motor manufacturer as an important partner in supplying the cast with specific, character-oriented cars, Ford of Britain were approached and were happy to supply a Ford Granada for George Cowley and, later in the process, this pair of rather special Ford Capris.Designed to be the Ford Mustang of Europe, the mind-boggling array of options meant that the Capri could be whatever you wanted it to be; just like the Mustang. The Capri was in fact a far more varied animal with engines ranging from 1,300cc to 3,100cc as well as a myriad of trim specifications. The most popular engine was the 1,600cc unit, but the object of most desire was the 3-litre version, which was available from the 1969 Mk 1 through to 1981 as the 3.0 S. Over time, the 3.0 S became synonymous with our action duo and undoubtedly inspired a generation of car enthusiasts whilst coincidentally giving a bit of a boost to Ford's performance car market.We are therefore privileged to offer these fabulously-presented cars on behalf of our vendor from his 16-year ownership. Most people seem to agree that these two cars should always be garaged together and consequently they are to be offered as a pair and sold as one Lot with the auction estimate of £200,000 to £230,000.1980 Ford Capri 3.0 S - as driven by Bodie.First registered on 4th June 1980 to the Ford Motor Company, Essex as OWC 827V, it was loaned to Mark 1 Productions Ltd. for the filming of Series four. Ford stipulated that the car was to wear the false registration plate 'OWC 827W' on screen so that the vehicle appeared new on the first TV transmission date of Series four on 19th October 1980. So when the first episode 'Blackout' went out the W suffix had already been released by the DVLA on the 1st August 1980. Ford therefore received free advertising of a 'new' Ford Capri 3.0S on a W plate. Production notes and filming schedules confirm the car’s original “V” registration as does the definitive book of the TV series, The Professionals  by Bob Roca and Julian Vogt.Supplied in Stratos Silver and fitted with roll-top head rests as opposed to Recaro fish-nets, it was allocated to Lewis Collins who played William Bodie and the car went on to feature in 10 episodes of the series: Black Out, The Gun, Wild Justice, Blood Sports, Hijack, You'll be All Right, Kickback, Discovered in a Graveyard, The Ojuka Situation, and The Untouchables.OWC 827V has the distinction of appearing on screen more than all of the cars used in the five series of The Professionals between 1977 to 1981. Bought by our vendor on 1st October 2007, it was sympathetically restored in 2021 with meticulous attention to detail, retaining many original features, most notably the interior. The original engine and gearbox have been fully reconditioned and a stainless steel exhaust was fitted at the same time. The vehicle still features its original alloy wheels which are shod with period-correct Goodyear Grand Prix 185 x 70 x 13 tyres. The speedometer reading, at the time of cataloguing, was 53,939 miles and the car is presented to auction with a detailed history file, V5C, receipts and memorabilia. SpecificationMake: FORDModel: CAPRI SYear: 1980Chassis Number: GAEAR120890Registration Number: OWC 827VTransmission: ManualEngine Number: AC10086 Drive Side: Right-hand DriveOdometer Reading: 53939 MilesMake: RHDInterior Colour: TartanClick here for more details and images

Lot 632

Meticulously maintained and superbly-presented in Argento over Tan, this lovely 456 offers a rare package of luxury GT motoring with that glorious V12 and the desirable 6-speed manual gearbox.The 456's looks are elegant and understated, with distinctive external features including a small grille with fog lights on the outside, bonnet-mounted air scoops, a motorised undercarriage spoiler that begins its deployment above 65mph, and pop-up headlamps. By today’s standards, the 456 can be viewed as the last Ferrari to offer uncompromising styling and luxury interior comfort. The model was well-received by press and enthusiasts alike and, although not produced in large numbers, was always gently in demand by sophisticated Ferrari owners before it was eventually replaced in 2004 by the 612 Scaglietti. Data indicates that 1,548 456 GTs were manufactured with as few as 141 manual gearbox cars delivered in right-hand drive.The name '456' refers to the fact that each cylinder displaces 456cm³, and this was the last Ferrari to use this naming convention. Despite its supercar performance, 436bhp, 0-60mph in 5.2 secs, and a top speed of 188mph, the 456 has a relatively unstressed engine which has proven, over time, to be an extremely reliable unit. Developed during the Schumacher era, the 456's construction was ground-breaking featuring composite and aluminium bodywork, cutting-edge body to chassis mating technology, along with four-wheel electronically adjustable suspension, resulting in a super lightweight 1,690kg. The Ferrari 456 had no direct rival, as it does today, the antiquated Aston Martin V8 was too bloated and the Porsche 911 was simply not exclusive enough for some.Offered here is a right-hand drive 456 GT delivered new to Hong Kong and specified in Argento Silver with a classic Tan leather interior and a manual gearbox. Manufactured in 1995 prior to being supplied in 1996, this 456 GT was meticulously maintained during its time in Hong Kong by Ferrari agents Italian Motors HK and Auto Italia HK with periodic recorded maintenance. Imported into the UK in 2015 and correctly-registered, this well-preserved example was selected to join a well-known collection of V12 Ferraris. Peter Holloway’s Collection of front engined V12, manual gearbox Ferraris featured in The Official Ferrari Magazine where his appreciation for the 456 was noted due to its 'wolf-in-sheep's-clothing' nature, presenting as a four-seat gentlemen’s carriage yet capable of over 190mph.Presented for auction in outstanding condition, F12 MPG is accompanied by a comprehensive history file with every invoice and receipt from new. The odometer currently indicates just 47,623km which equates to just under 30,000 miles. The Argento paintwork is pin-sharp, the interior presents like new and we understand that this modern classic Ferrari performs just as well as it looks.With very low-production numbers, we rarely see a manual 456 GT, especially with such a lovely specification and in such good order. We welcome any inspection of this very desirable Ferrari which is offered on a very sensible guide and is now ready to join another collection of landmark Grand Tourers.SpecificationMake: FERRARIModel: 456 GTYear: 1997Chassis Number: ZFFSP44C000103273Registration Number: F12 MPGTransmission: ManualDrive Side: Right-hand DriveOdometer Reading: 47623 KMMake: RHDInterior Colour: TanClick here for more details and images

Lot 675

A stunning 280SL Pagoda fresh to market for the first time in almost 40-years. Cherished since the mid 1980s and imported from Paris to London by fashion model and renowned children’s clothes designer Rachel Riley.Offered here at the Silverstone Festival 2023 is a beautiful Mercedes-Benz 280SL Pagoda that has been cherished since it was purchased from a specialist Mercedes-Benz dealer in Paris almost 40-years ago. Rachel Riley, at the time, was a fashion model and, sometime after falling hopelessly in love with a young Parisian photographer, they decided to purchase a smart 280SL to enjoy one of Europe’s most romantic cities together. When the couple re located to London, the Pagoda naturally came with them and since then has been meticulously maintained by the same specialist workshop.Finished to European-specification in left-hand drive, this beautiful, manual gearbox 280SL is presented in arguably the most ‘en vogue’ colour combination of silver metallic with a burgundy leather interior with matching carpets and a black hood. The SL retains many carefully-preserved features including the indentations on the front wings that are, more often than not, lost in careless body restorations. It starts on-the-button and is described as performing very well thanks to regular attention from the dedicated local specialists who have been entrusted with its maintenance since it arrived here.It’s accompanied by its body-coloured, factory hard top and supplied with a history file which contains old French paperwork, the current V5C and UK-registration paperwork ready for transfer or export, and a wealth of invoices outlining its fastidious maintenance from its long-term specialists.Nowadays, Rachel Riley is a globally renowned, award-winning children’s fashion designer who finds herself spending more time in her beautiful garden than behind the wheel of the Pagoda, and consequently the time has come to find her beloved SL a new home. This is a great opportunity to take ownership of this delightful classic Mercedes-Benz.SpecificationMake: MERCEDES-BENZModel: 280SL PAGODAYear: 1969Chassis Number: 10013533Registration Number: FYY 470HTransmission: ManualDrive Side: Left-hand DriveOdometer Reading: 83424 KMMake: LHDInterior Colour: Burgundy Click here for more details and images

Lot 612

One of 500 UK-delivered, meticulously restored and outstandingly presented City Pack 3.0CSLs with a £100,000 restoration behind it and period-correct upgrades.Visually indistinguishable from its more commonplace counterparts, the CS and CSi, the 3.0 CSL (Coupé Sport Leicht) showcased creativity in the realm of homologation. As we all know, success in motorsport sells cars, and the marketing department's demands prompted BMW engineers to develop a limited-production 'homologation special,' to meet the constrictive framework of the ‘Group 2’ racing class regulations at the time. They achieved this by stripping away unnecessary trim, using thinner steel for the main bodyshell, using aluminium alloy for the doors, bonnet, and boot lid, and even opting for Perspex for the side windows. This clever approach resulted in a significant weight reduction of 300lbs (136kgs) - truly living up to its name, 'Leicht,' meaning light in German.From a mechanical standpoint, these cars were nearly identical to the fuel-injected CSi which meant 200bhp and a top speed of over 140mph. However, to compete in the over-3-litre class, the engineers slightly increased the engine displacement to 3,003cc. With all-round independent suspension (McPherson strut front and semi-trailing arm rear), disc brakes, and responsive steering, the CSL displayed impeccable balance and driving dynamics. When new, it carried a hefty price tag, surpassing that of a Porsche 911 2.7 RS by several hundred pounds. Now, the CSLs from the 1970s are the most sought-after BMWs, owing to their fabulous competition history including winning the European Touring Car Championship every year between 1973-1979 with the exception of 1974.We understand that a mere 1,039 CSLs were ever produced, out of which 500 came in right-hand drive for BMW UK. Interestingly, virtually all UK cars were fitted with the “City Package,” technically an optional extra, that included a front bumper, electric windows, power steering, a heated rear screen, boot lock, a tool kit, and sound deadening. This upgrade undoubtedly enhanced the car's civility, but it naturally offset some of the initial weight savings. The particular car in question is one of those 500 right-hand drive models and has been privy to a meticulous and impressive restoration.The car we’re offering is a truly incredible example with an interesting story. Currently owned by its 5th keeper from new, with its 3rd custodian owning the car for 26 years, keeping it in a heated garage but having it laid up in said garage since 1999 until being sold in rolling project form at auction in 2014. A well-known amateur racing driver purchased the car but unfortunately passed away before any significant work was done so it was re-sold in 2015 in running and driving project form to the current owner who set about bringing it up to rude health, investing over £100,000 in the process, with a plethora of bills and invoices on file for parts, labour and maintenance.The majority of the restoration was undertaken by Paul Baker Restorations to an incredible standard. As part of the work undertaken, the car was taken down to the bare shell including removal of old paint and rust with photos documenting these processes. It was repainted in Polaris Metallic Silver and adorned with high-quality BMW Motorsport (Martini) side-stripes. The bodywork restoration was done meticulously with modern materials, resulting in an excellent condition. While we don’t know why, but presumably because both the cars and parts were so cheap at the time, and with no indicators of any foul play at hand, the car was re-shelled in the late-1980s, using a CSA shell but retaining its lightweight alloy bonnet, doors, and boot lid, the main characteristic of the CSL. The previous owner made it clear that the car has been re-shelled by omitting certain markings. Completing the pleasing external aesthetic, the car was fitted with new replica Alpina 16” wheels with Michelin tires. The old 14” wheels were retained and will come with the car.Mechanically the engine was upgraded to a reconditioned CSL engine with 3.3-litres displacement, a big step up from the original 3.0-litre. It was a genuine BMW factory reconditioned unit as it is coded 33 indicating 3.3 litres (BMW rounded up the displacement), E indicates “Petrol Injection” and “D” indicates D-Jetronic. 1096 is the serial number and “A” indicates remanufactured. By good fortune, this upgrade will compensate for the slightly heavier shell because it increases the mid-range engine torque by 23ft/lbs. The cylinder head and bores were serviced, and various components were replaced or tested, and a gas-flowed stainless-steel exhaust was installed.All suspension parts were restored, and new suspension bushes were fitted, front wishbones were replaced, brake servos were changed, and brake components were overhauled as well as installing thicker anti-roll bars and replacing the power steering pump.Inside the car the interior wood was re-veneered, the panels were restored and reused, the Scheel seats were recovered, a new period correct carpet set was installed but the original roof lining was retained.It almost goes without saying that the car is exceptional in its appearance and condition. Its overall quality, finish, and presence on the road make it highly desirable to collectors and enthusiasts alike. Since completion, it's been used and enjoyed for both short trips and long, including a drive out to Le Mans 24hr where it behaved beautifully, as expected. As can happen with significant restorations the car now feels too precious to our Devon based vendor to warrant regular use tight and twisty West Country roads knowing the cost of even a minor 'tap'.This is a stunningly restored BMW CSL with a rich ownership history, outstanding looks and incredible workmanship. Whilst the re-shelling and engine upgrade impact its originality, to even the most well-trained eye one would be strained to know this without prior knowledge. With performance, heritage, history, restoration, rarity and stunning looks all in its favour, this may be one of the best CSLs to broach the market in recent years, and very attractively priced.SpecificationMake: BMWModel: 3.0 CSLYear: 1973Chassis Number: 2285486Registration Number: WAL 857MTransmission: ManualEngine Number: 330ED 1096ADrive Side: Right-hand DriveMake: RHDInterior Colour: Black ClothClick here for more details and images

Lot 692

Bought new by the legendary comedian and offered with his original registration EM 100. Unrestored and a unique opportunity.For a couple of decades during the middle of the 20th Century, it seemed almost compulsory that celebrity Rolls-Royce owners had to be pictured alongside their car, posing self-importantly. Yet there was one gentleman at the very top of his game who just could not take himself or the trappings of his success seriously in front of the camera. The photograph included in this very special car’s history file defines the late Eric Morecambe in one image. Although a household name, he still looked, and importantly behaved, like everyone’s favourite uncle, he just wanted to get a laugh.By the mid-1960s, and having worked hard since their double act was formed in 1941, Eric Morecombe and Ernie Wise had started to make some serious money. In 1968, the same year as the launch of The Morecambe & Wise Show, Eric bought one of the most expensive sports cars at the time, a Jensen Interceptor. The car played a significant role in saving his life during a period of ill-health, and his subsequent interview with Michael Parkinson also inspired our Chairman, Nick Whale, decades later to track down and restore that particular Interceptor. In 1971, Eric’s ambition of owning a Rolls-Royce was fulfilled when he bought his first of two Silver Shadows. As confirmed by his long-term chauffeur, the late Mike Fountain, Eric would usually sit up front and only used the back seat when he wanted to stretch out for a nap.On 11th October 1974, this Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow, finished in Walnut Brown with a Beige interior, was supplied new to Eric and bore his private EM 100 registration. The only registration the car has ever had, it is generously included by our vendor in the sale in recognition of its historical importance. The car was much loved by Eric, and it's poignant that he still had the Rolls ten years later when he sadly passed away, at the age of 58, on 28th May 1984. The family kept the car for a further 20-years until they sold it at auction in December 2004. The car had 74,000 miles on the odometer at the time, and the previous owner, from whom our vendor bought the car, had travelled an additional 3,000 miles to account for the odometer reading of 77,452 miles at the time of cataloguing.Having never been restored, the bodywork and chrome bumpers present as one might expect, the beige leather has aged well and the lambswool rugs are pleasingly still in place although the walnut veneers show the usual bloom of old lacquer. With bills of £15,000 over the last ten years, the mechanical aspects of the car appear to have been maintained to a very high standard.We conclude that few celebrity cars are available at this estimate and, with a number plate worth a significant sum on its own, this fabulous Rolls-Royce will surely bring you sunshine wherever it goes.SpecificationMake: ROLLS-ROYCEModel: SILVER SHADOWYear: 1974Chassis Number: SRH19679Registration Number: EM 100Transmission: AutomaticEngine Number: 19679 Drive Side: Right-hand DriveOdometer Reading: 77500 MilesMake: RHDInterior Colour: Beige LeatherClick here for more details and images

Lot 717

Last-year-of-production UK-supplied right-hand drive GTS with a full history and low-ownership.In terms of the 928, in 1989 Porsche moved the game on with the even more powerful 928 GT which, with a top speed of around 170mph, was the Stuttgart firm's fastest production car at that time, before launching the model's ultimate incarnation, the 928 GTS. Introduced at the Frankfurt Motor Show in 1991, the latter boasted a 5.4-litre engine producing all of 345bhp and automatics were fitted with the much faster-responding Dynamic Kickdown gearboxes setting them apart from the previous models. Externally, the GTS differed from the S4 with its new style of alloy wheels, flared rear arches and a body-coloured rear spoiler. What Porsche was not advertising when the 928 GTS was released was the price, which was amongst the most expensive cars on the road at the time. This severely hampered sales despite the model's level of competency and long standard equipment list. Porsche discontinued the GTS in 1995 after selling only 2,904 examples in total, which at the time was a problem, but in 2023 makes for a rare and incredibly desirable model.This lovely Porsche 928 GTS automatic, finished in Polar Silver with a Midnight Blue Leatherette interior, is certainly one of the best that we have seen of these immensely capable Grand Tourers. Supplied new by Lancaster Porsche Cambridge, it has only had two owners prior to our vendor and has covered just 40,639 miles. It's supplied with a service book boasting nearly 20 stamps from either Porsche Main Dealers and latterly a Porsche specialist. The most recent full service included front brakes and the invoice amounted to a substantial £7,148.10. The MOTs go back to 2006 with the odometer reading 30,746 miles at that point.This stunning GTS has led a coveted life which is reflected in its remarkably fresh appearance. Very few Grand Tourers match the timeless looks and the quality that Porsche obviously put into building these long-legged, front-engined GTs.SpecificationMake: PORSCHEModel: 928Year: 1995Chassis Number: WP0ZZZ92ZRS800510Registration Number: M135 VDOTransmission: AutoEngine Number: 81R50964 Drive Side: Right-hand DriveOdometer Reading: 40639 MilesMake: RHDClick here for more details and images

Lot 700

One of just 200 examples, fabulously presented and perhaps the lowest-mileage CSK on the market.To mark the huge success and the 20th Anniversary of the model, Land Rover, in their September 1990 press release, hailed the Range Rover CSK as the 'Ultimate two-door Range Rover'. Named in honour of Charles Spencer King, the man who designed the original Range Rover, the CSK was intended primarily to publicise the new anti-roll suspension and was promoted as a sportier Range Rover with only 200 numbered examples produced. This special, UK-only, Range Rover featured a number of modifications improving both performance and passenger comfort, and was the fastest production Range Rover ever built at that time, with a chipped version of the 3.9-litre V8 engine developing 185bhp. The increase in performance is complemented by improved handling at high speeds, and Land Rover had introduced front and rear anti-roll bars and sports dampers to give a smoother, more comfortable ride on normal roads.Finished exclusively in Beluga Black with chrome bumpers, they featured silver pinstripe coach lines with discrete CSK logos positioned on both front wings and one on the lower tailgate. The interior is pure Range Rover with contrasting Sorrel leather trim and the American Walnut fascia, and door inserts are exclusive to this model. Priced at £28,995 for a manual, the automatic CSK was more expensive at £30,319.22. The CSK was an instant hit, aimed as it was at the emerging sportier Range Rover owner, and was perhaps the first of its kind, a retro-inspired new car. Whilst some CSKs were used on turf, the vast majority were viewed as comfortable motorway cruisers, as most Range Rovers are so used today, and the few CSKs that are seen in today’s market have over 100,000 miles on the odometer and are usually heavily restored. Seen as a comfortable luxury car without the ostentation of a Rolls or Bentley, a number of CSKs naturally found their way to the leafy residential roads of the better parts of 1990s London, as this fabulous car, No. 56, did when new. First registered to a Mr C Geoff-Saurau of Earls Court, South West London on 12th August 1991. Please note, that it was our vendor’s intention to service the CSK at his local Land Rover main dealer but was informed, bafflingly, that they no longer serviced Range Rovers built before 2007, and will therefore have the CSK serviced at a British Heritage specialist. The service book has the following record:Page 1 PDI at Ian Allan Motors Land Rover, Virginia Waters, SurreyPage 2 H.R.
