1929 Rolls-Royce Phantom I Dual Cowl Open Tourer Transmission: manualMileage:9064In 1925, the 'New Phantom', with its overhead-valve engine and four-wheel brakes was introduced. The example offered today left the factory in October 1928 for coachbuilders Arthur Mulliner to be fitted with coachwork for its first owner, Lord Hillingdon of Paulerspury, Northamptonshire. (A photograph of the finished car appears in 'Those Elegant Rolls-Royce' by Lawrence Dalton). In the post-war years, it fell into disrepair and was finally taken off the road in 1961. After lying unused for over 40 years, the car was then purchased in 2002 by the previous owner who set about returning '83WR' to its former glory.This most elegant example has have been the subject of an extensive restoration over the years with the engine rebuilt from the ground up by noted Rolls-Royce and Bentley specialists, Ristes, in 2003. The cylinder blocks were rebored and honed to +040" with oversized pistons fitted, top and bottom faces skimmed and waterways cleared with external surfaces stove enamelled as original. The crankshaft was ground to undersize with new white metal bearings fitted. Oilways were cleaned out and new plugs fitted with new white metal bearings to con-rods and new camshafts fitted. The bottom face has also been skimmed flat with new valve guides, exhaust valves and rocker faces built up and re-profiled. The slipper drive was re-lined and set to the correct torque setting with the oil pump reconditioned. All ancillary items including dynamo, magneto, water-pump etc were also fully re-conditioned and finished as per original.The carburettor was reconditioned to factory settings with new spark plugs, leads and a freshly stripped and re-conditioned Autovac with all new parts as necessary. The exhaust system was also replaced from manifold to fish-tail tip. The radiator was fitted with a new core and all shutters were nickel plated, new hoses and original pattern clips throughout.Both front and rear spring leaves were separated, cleaned, de-scaled, greased and re-assembled. The rear shock absorbers were dismantled, cleaned and painted with all new leather gaiters fitted to the spring with triple lock panels on the running boards for access. The chassis was also stripped to bare metal with all mechanical items removed, sandblasted, painted and refitted. The Front axle was also sandblasted and painted with kingpins built up and re-machined to size. New bushes and bearings were also fitted, new ball pins fitted to all steering swivel joints and even the steering box was stripped and checked for wear, cleaned and re-assembled. All shock absorbers were stripped, cleaned and painted, worn shafts were built up and re-machined to size. The wheel hubs and bearings were stripped, cleaned and inspected for wear then repacked with grease and reassembled. The cross steering tube and side steering tube swivels were re-set to correct poundage with new leather gaiters.All hubs have dismantled, cleaned and inspected for wear then re-packed with grease and re-assembled. The universal joint in the torque tube has been re-bushed with new leather seal fitted. New linings have been fitted all round and the front drums skimmed. Importantly, for a two tonne car, new brake cables have been fitted both front and rear. The wheels have been dismantled, re-spoked and a stove enamelled finish applied with new tyres and inner tubes including a side-mounted spare.The original Mulliner body has long-since gone to be replaced with a very well-constructed duel-cowl open tourer torpedo coachwork. The frame is Ash with aluminium panels, aluminium wings and a new aluminium firewall. The new bonnet has been built with period-style sliding side vents, nickel silver hinges and rivets which match the handbrake, gear lever and all lighting equipment. The luxurious interior is trimmed in high quality, red leather and contrasting black mohair hood, hoodbag and side-screens. The instrument panel presents with a deep gloss finish and garnish rails.The comprehensive array of instruments themselves have all been with the main ignition and lighting functions also stove-enamelled and re-lettered as have the controls on the steering column. The wiring loom has been replaced with a cotton-braided unit in the original colours and even following the original conduits. The original bell-shaped Lucas headlamps are fitted with main and dipped beam operated through the dash-mounted dimmer switch. Brake lights and indicators are incorporate within sidelights to the front and classic rear divers-helmet rear tail lamps. Even the Klaxon horn has been fully re-conditioned and operational.Needless to say, Wilton carpet can be found at feet level with an additional hinged panel behind the front seat to provide storage for the side-screens. The nickel-plated theme continues with the windscreen frame housing, interior mirror and exterior wing-mirror (carried on the side-mounted spare wheel). Not to mention the rear luggage rack fitted with reconditioned Brooks 'Brexton' trunk. Also supplied is the wheel spanner, bottle jack, starting handle, grease gun, extensive history file and owner's handbook. This represents a supremely elegant motor car produced by the most famous marque in the world, there is little doubt, with some light fettling, that it would win prizes were she shown.Quite simply, beautiful.

Brookes & Crookes was established in 1858 by two Nonconformists, John Brookes (1825-1865) and Thomas Crookes (1826-1912). In their founding year the partners entertained their employees with a day of cricket and toasting, where Brookes underlined their intention to produce first-class goods and Crookes promised fair remuneration for labour. Though common sentiments at the time, Brookes and Crookes were already known for paying bonuses for new designs. Sadly, the partnership was short-lived as Brookes died from apoplexy at West Riding Pauper Lunatic Asylum, near Wakefield, on 14 February 1865 aged only 39 years. Crookes took over the business helped by his works manager William Westby who moved with his family to the factory at Atlantic Works in 1861. The ‘Bell’ trade mark became a badge of excellence and they were famed for the variety of their sportsman’s and multi-blade knives.

A bespoke TT RS professionally built to break records with its 80-year-old owner. Offered at the Supercar Fest with a slot booked on the Runway for Sunday!Offered here at the Supercar Fest 2023 is a very nicely built Audi TT RS that has been thoughtfully modified with the intention of breaking speed records, and may well be the fastest Audi TT RS in the world. Our vendor’s declining health now dictates that the time has come to sell the car, and this is an opportunity to take ownership of a famous TT, well known in Audi and speed-record circles, and held in much regard as a well-engineered, very fast road car. Excitingly, subject to cleared funds, the winning bidder will be able to enjoy a demonstration run on the Sywell runway on the Sunday with the opportunity to set the fastest time of the day.The car will be presented to the sale after having a complete spanner and systems check-over by the company originally commissioned to develop the car from a standard TT RS into something capable of producing 1,400bhp when using High Octane Race Fuel and able to sprint from 100-200kph in 2.94 seconds.This car has been extensively developed primarily with acceleration and straight-line speed in mind, and there is too much information to list here, but a detailed spec-sheet is available for interested parties. Naturally, the engine has been stripped and meticulously reassembled with competition parts bearing in mind the likely power output, the gearbox rebuilt with a lightened flywheel and similarly the clutch and drivetrain rebuilt with components that will handle the substantial levels of torque. A new large turbo with a bespoke F1-spec intercooler system and a bespoke manifold have been fitted and fuelling is through secondary injectors on a custom fuel-rail with brushless pumps and Aquamist meth-injection. Fuelling and engine management are the responsibility of the latest version of S7 Syvecs ECU.Retardation is provided by a set of Audi R8 Ceramic brakes and handling by a set of custom-made Bilstein B16 coil-overs with Hadlex 4-wd traction control. Beautifully presented in all black, the little Audi is finished off nicely with a set of lightweight TSW 19’’ alloys.Somewhere in the region of £90,000 has been invested to create this incredible Audi TT RS and it has now been brought to market at a very sensible guide. This is a real ‘Q-car’ that appears almost standard from the outside, however, when the lights change it becomes evident that the adjective 'ballistic' seems more appropriate.*Supercar Fest Runway demonstration run on Sunday subject to cleared funds*Please contact our team for further details and a full build specification*Professional images to follow shortly SpecificationMake: AUDIModel: TT COUPÉYear: 2011Chassis Number: TRUZZZ8J2B1900996Registration Number: V999 BHPTransmission: AutoDrive Side: Right-hand DriveOdometer Reading: 79371 MilesMake: RHDInterior Colour: BlackClick here for more details and images
