2000 Rover Mini 40 'KAD' Transmission: manualMileage:1100Kent Auto Developments is a pioneering automotive company renowned for its expertise in performance tuning, bespoke vehicle enhancements, and motorsport preparation. With a focus on innovation and quality craftsmanship, the company offers a comprehensive range of services tailored to meet the diverse needs of enthusiasts and professional drivers alike. Their team of skilled technicians combines advanced technology with meticulous attention to detail to ensure optimal results for every project. Whether it's optimizing horsepower, improving handling, or refining aerodynamics, Kent Auto Developments is dedicated to pushing the boundaries of automotive excellence. With a reputation for excellence and a commitment to customer satisfaction, Kent Auto Developments continues to elevate the driving experience for automotive enthusiasts worldwide.This Mini was a full build by Kent Auto Developments, which really can only be described as a work of art. The car started life as a limited edition Mini 40 but has since been 'backdated' with a clubman front end and painted in Ferrari Verde Silverstone. It is understood that more than £60,000 was spent on the build of the car, with the brief being 'to beat everything on track days but still have the comfort to drive to the South of France'. Power comes from a KAD built 1480cc, 16v, twin-cam engine with a whopping 180bhp, which is plenty in a mini! The engine is fitted with Jenvey throttle bodies and Omex 600 management, which has just had a £700 refresh and tune. A Piper 4-2-1 stainless manifold with Playmini stainless exhaust system is fitted, giving an incredible exhaust note. The car is fitted with a KAD five-speed straight cut dogleg gearbox, Quaife ATB limited slip differential, KAD alloy flywheel and KAD quick shifter. Stopping power comes from KAD four-pot calipers up front with 7.9€ vented and grooved discs and a KAD rear disc conversion with KAD adjustable bias pedal box. As if a Mini didn't handle well enough already, the car has been fitted with AVO full adjustable suspension, KAD alloy swing arms, camber arms, alloy front hubs, KAD front and rear anti roll bars and electronic power steering with a Quaife quick steering rack. KAD 6x10€ magnesium wheels have been fitted with Yokohama Advan 032R tyres, perfect for road/track use. The interior really is the best of both worlds, trimmed in sumptuous black leather with a full roll cage (also painted in Ferrari Verde Silverstone), Pioneer speaker system with Bluetooth, AVIC F220 navigation system and a full length electronic sunroof.This is an outstanding mini built with huge attention to detail and was truly a no expense spared build. Offered to auction with a comprehensive history file, V5C registration document and an MoT test certificate valid until September 2024. Whether you're a Mini enthusiast or not, this car is quite hard not to love and is offered at a fraction of its original build cost having covered just over 1,000 miles since completion.

A GREEN JADE ‘BIRD’ PENDANT FRAGMENT, WESTERN ZHOU DYNASTY 西周鳥形玉珮Please note this Lot is to be sold at No Reserve. 本拍品不設底價China, 1100-1000 BC. The flat stone carved in the form of a stylized bird, each side with grooves forming the wings and tail. The opaque jade of a grayish-green color with areas of white calcification.Provenance: From the collection of Dr. Wou Kiuan. Wou Lien-Pai Museum, coll. no. E.3.21A-H. Dr. Wou Kiuan (1910-1997) was a Chinese diplomat and noted scholar of Chinese art. His father, Wou Lien-Pai (1873-1944), was one the leading political figures of early 20th century China, remembered for his role as speaker and leader of parliament during the turbulent years of the Republican era. Dr. Wou himself embarked on an illustrious career in diplomacy until his retirement in 1952, when he settled in London and devoted the rest of his life to the study of Chinese art. It was no doubt fortuitous that Dr. Wou’s years of collecting coincided with an abundant availability of exceptional Chinese art on the London market. From the mid-1950s to the late 1960s he was able to form a collection of well over 1,000 works that together represented virtually every category of Chinese art. At the heart of Dr. Wou’s drive to collect was a burning desire to preserve the relics of China’s rich historical past scattered across Europe, and to promote Chinese art and culture. It is unclear when Dr. Wou conceived of the idea to create a place to house his collection, but in 1968 he opened the doors to the Wou Lien-Pai Museum, named in honor of his father. Over the years the Museum became a ‘must see’ destination for collectors, academics, and visiting dignitaries, and Dr. Wou would delight in leading his visitors through the galleries, recounting stories of China’s glorious history. Condition: Condition commensurate with age. Old wear, weathering and erosion, nibbling, some chips and losses. The stone with natural fissures, some of which may have developed into small hairline cracks over time.Weight: 7.2 g Dimensions: Length 7.6 cmExpert's note (added 20.2.2023): Jades such as the present lot can be dated to as early as the Shang Dynasty. It has been theorized that they were once made as adornments and supports for elaborate lacquer vessels imitating the designs of ritual bronzes (see image section). None of these complete vessels have ever been found. This original intended use eventually fell out of fashion with the repurposing of these archaic examples for bodily adornment. See Qian Yang's thesis: The Circulation of Jades in Early China (Late Neolithic – Eastern Zhou, ca. 4500 -221 B.C.). Literature comparison: Compare a closely related jade plaque, described as a fish, Western Zhou dynasty, in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, accession number 24.51.7. Compare a closely related jade plaque of a bird, in the British Museum, accession number 1947,0712.465, and illustrated in J. Rawson, Chinese Jades from the Neolithic to the Qing, British Museum, 1995, p. 227, fig. 1, where she notes that during the Western Zhou dynasty, the tail became more horizontal and looks more like a ‘fish’ tail, such is the case for the present lot.Auction result comparison:Type: RelatedAuction: Sotheby’s Hong Kong, 26 May 2021, lot 127Price: HKD 56,700 or approx.

A GRISAILLE AND IRON-RED-DECORATED ‘LI TIEGUAI’ VASE, HONGXIAN MARK, EARLY REPUBLIC PERIODPlease note this Lot is to be sold at No Reserve. 本拍品不設底價Expert’s note: For an interesting discussion of porcelain produced during the short period from December 1915 to February 1916 when General Yuan Shikai adopted the reign title Hongxian in an attempt to restore the monarchy to China, see the article by Simon Kwan, 'Hongxian Porcelain and the Role of Wang Xiaotang', published in Orientations, October, 1991, pp. 65-70. In particular, the author notes that a batch of Hongxian-marked porcelain wares was most likely indeed produced for Yuan Shikai. The painting on the present porcelain vase is of the highest quality. The painter not only executed the meticulous wrinkles and folds of Li Tieguai’s skin with a deft hand, but he also painted the clothes with an intricate pattern and shaded the rocks with remarkable mastery. This vase belongs to a rare group of grisaille-decorated porcelain from the Republic period which were decorated by the most skilled painters in Jingdezhen, of which there were exceedingly few left at that time.China, c. 1915-1930. Delicately potted, the ovoid body supported on a short foot and rising to a gently rounded shoulder with a waisted neck and flared mouth. Superbly painted to the exterior in predominantly iron-red and grisaille with Li Tieguai leaning on his iron crutch as he sits on a dramatically cragged and pierced rock under a towering tree with gnarled branches, before a flaming brazier with his double gourd placed on top, surrounded by further vessels and implements. The base with an iron-red four-character seal mark Hongxian nianzhi within a double square.Provenance: From the collection of Dr. Wou Kiuan. Wou Lien-Pai Museum, coll. no. Q.3.16.

Inscriptions: Upper left, titled ‘Buddhas of the Ten Directions, Eight Great Bodhisattvas, Luohans, and a Vajrapani’. Provenance: From the collection of Dr. Wou Kiuan. Wou Lien-Pai Museum, coll. no. 130. Dr. Wou Kiuan (1910-1997) was a Chinese diplomat and a noted scholar of Chinese art.

The paper frame in similar condition with losses, tears, creasing, and associated repairs. Presenting overall very well given its age and material. Dimensions: Image size 83.8 x 134 cm, Size incl. frame 94.3 x 184 cmThe grandest of the Buddhist mortuary rites is the Water-Land (shuilu) ritual. This esoteric ceremony is conducted for the salvation of “all souls of the dead on land and sea.” The ostentatious ritual was performed for imperial ancestors and high officials from the Song (960–1279) to the Ming dynasties and drew large crowds. On the second day of the weeklong ceremony, paintings are hung in the inner altar.Originally one of a pair, most likely flanking a central painting of the Buddha. It has been claimed that the total of twelve characters is a feature of a painting created at the imperial court. Almost certainly, the matching right-hand painting of the pair would have featured another inscription in gold, with details of the temple where it was dedicated and the date.At the top of the painting, against a background of auspicious 'five-colored' clouds, are five of the Buddhas of the Ten Directions. They are not individually identified, but display different mudras or hand gestures. From the left, these are: abhaya, dharmacakra, anjali, abhaya, and dhyani mudra.Immediately below them are four of the Eight Great Bodhisattvas, who are more easily identifiable by the attributes they hold. From the left, the first figure, holding a khakkhara or priest's staff, and with a Sanskrit seed character in his headdress, is Kshitigarbha; next to him, holding a ruyi or wish-fulfilling sceptre, is Sarvanivaranavishkambin; following him is Maitreya holding a fan on which is depicted the sun and moon and a two-story building representing the Tushita Paradise in which he resides; and finally Samantabhadra. Similarly, the group of nine luohan in this painting would have been completed by a parallel group in the facing painting. Although they are not all immediately identifiable, they have very distinctive characters, old and young, Chinese and foreign. The first figure in the second row, holding a fan with outline clouds, is Pindola, an old man with immensely long, white eyebrows.Museum comparison:Compare a pair of related Water-Land ritual paintings, dated 1454, in the Cleveland Art Museum, accession number 1973.70.
