1954 JAGUAR XK120 SE OTS ROADSTER Registration: 476 UYN                      Chassis Number: S674627 Recorded Mileage: c. 24,000 miles - Best in category at the 2016 and 2019 editions of the London Concours of Elegance - Blue-printed fast-road 3.8 litre motor, triple SU carburettors, five-speed gearbox - c. £55,000 in development and maintenance since 2016 It was at the 1948 London Motor Show that Jaguar threw the sports car world into turmoil with its stunning XK120. Here was a car with incredible style and looks, a powerful six cylinder engine installed in an outstanding chassis, and a remarkably low price, a quarter that of a V12 Ferrari, but with similar performance. At the heart of the William Lyons styled roadster was that all-new 3,442cc twin overhead camshaft XK engine, producing 160bhp via twin SU carburettors, sufficient for 126mph and 0-60mph in 10 seconds. The XK120 became a massive success, both on the road and the track, where it scored numerous victories. The many drivers included Stirling Moss, Peter Walker, Peter Whitehead, Leslie Johnson and Ian Appleyard. In XK120C/C-Type form it won Le Mans in both 1951 and 1953, while its engine was to power three more Le Sarthe winners and a whole host of successful Jaguar models for the next fifty years. This hugely impressive XK120 SE Roadster was delivered to Hornburgs, Los Angeles, in January of 1954, finished in Lavender Grey with a Red interior and Fawn soft top. By the late 1980s the XK had found its way back to the UK and into the ownership of a Swedish enthusiast who embarked on a significant program of restoration and upgrades with leading specialist Guy Broad. After a further 25 years or so years of ownership, in 2015 the Jaguar passed to our current vendor, a UK-based enthusiast who took his beloved XK to the next level to produce the beautiful yet highly usable example you see today. Entrusted to well respected marque specialists Winspeed of Guildford, the Jaguar has enjoyed much further work as detailed in the extensive history file. In addition to regular maintenance and minor refurbishment as and when required, our car received a number of major upgrades. The 3.4 litre engine was removed and replaced with a bespoke 3.8 litre blue-printed, balanced and polished unit, fed through triple 1 ¾” SU carburettors and driven through a Broadsport 5-speed gearbox, well suited to driving at high speed over long distances, and with the minimum of fuss. During the build the cylinder head was gas-flowed and converted to lead-free fuel, and fitted with larger XJ6 exhaust valves. The flywheel was lightened, a high-torque starter was fitted, as was a new clutch, and starting was improved with the fitting of electronic ignition. A bill for £34,308 supports this work alone. In current ownership the XK has become somewhat a celebrity on the concours scene, winning its category in the annual Concours of Elegance events in 2016 and 2019 at Windsor and Hampton Court respectively. Not to say this is merely a trailer queen; the Jaguar has been much used and enjoyed over the last few years, a testament to its usability and quality of mechanical rebuild. Finished in black with comfortable and stylish tan leather bucket seats, lightened by the removal of its bumpers, cooled by its additional bonnet vents, and more streamlined with its Brooklands aero screens, this uber-cool classic road racer is the ideal companion for long trips to Le Mans or quick blasts to Goodwood, in comfort and at speed. This wonderful machine is on the button and is offered with an extensive history file outlining its ownership and maintenance over a 35 year period. The XK will be supplied with the original screen, roof, side panels and wipers.

1964 FERRARI 330 GT 2+2 SERIES 1 Registration Number: BVN 781B                Chassis number: 5863GT Recorded Mileage: 43,000 miles - Matching numbers, UK delivered from new - One of only c. 20 known surviving RHD examples - In current ownership since 1971 Replacing the 250 GTE 2+2 and the limited-production 330 America was the Ferrari 330 GT 2+2, making its first public appearance at the Brussels Salon in January 1964. This new model helped carry on the success of the 2+2 models of the immediate past with several key updates, in hopes of seeing an increase in sales over the 250 GTE 2+2. Ferrari’s new four-seater featured a completely new body style from Pininfarina, one that was very distinctive from the other Ferrari models on sale at the time. The easiest way to identify the first-series 330 GT 2+2 is by its quad headlight front end. The Series II cars did not adopt quad headlamps, which was the easiest way to idenify them. The public did not warm to them and so no other future Ferrari used quad headlamps. Other notable cosmetic changes include more angular nose and tail sections from the 250 GTE 2+2 and the introduction of a wider front grille to help increase airflow to the engine. Following in the footsteps of the 330 America in terms of its drivetrain, the 330 GT 2+2 featured a four-litre V12 engine mated to the existing four-speed-plus overdrive transmission as in the 250 GTE. Its wheelbase was increased by two inches, and with the installation of Koni adjustable shock absorbers, handling improved immensely. The 330 GT 2+2 remains one of Ferrari’s finest four-passenger touring cars - with its 300-horsepower, 4.0-litre engine, the 330 is powerful yet easy to drive around town, while its luxurious appointments make the car as suited to today’s road tours and events as when it was new. The 330 GT 2+2 still provides a great opportunity to enter into classic V12 Ferrari ownership at a reasonable price.  An early RHD 'Series 1' model, chassis number '5863' was delivered new on 1st August 1964 to Maranello Concessionaires on St. Swithin’s Lane in the City of London. Finished in a dark shade of Blu Scuro with a stylish red leather interior, the 330 was soon to be despatched to its first private owner, the Scottish businessman Sir John "Jack" Stewart-Clark, who kept the Ferrari for a two or so years before moving the car on to its next custodian. Changing hands a few times during the 1960s, during which time the 330 had been repainted from dark blue to a sportier shade of red, in October 1971 our current vendor Peter chased up a classified ad placed by a dealer in London’s Notting Hill for a “Ferrari 330 Sports”. According to the seller, the car was a “fabulous looker” and “a snip” at a mere £1,750! Our man, a devoted Italian classic car enthusiast and collector, promptly bought the Ferrari and took to the road.  After purchase, and knowing that the clutch needed adjustment, upon removing the gearbox it transpired more than a new new clutch was needed, the flywheel was blue with radial cracks after only a thousand miles use, and more work than that was immediately revealed.  Other than the necessary work at the time, the 330 had some later work in 1987 and at the time a new MoT certificate obtained. The doors had previously been lightened in 1973, at which point new perspex windows were also fitted, with a sliding panel to the driver's window to enable pit signals in light competition use.  However the car never raced and remained with a number of other exotic Italian classic cars in the collection. After 51 years of ownership, and due to a general desire to thin out his collection, our vendor has finally decided the time is right to find a new home for his 330 GT. In August 2022, in preparation for sale, an engineer was brought in to wake the slumbering V12 engine. After careful preparation, and some work to the carburettors and fueling, the engine was turned over and instantly burst into life,. Whilst largely complete the brakes are disconnected and the car lacks its door furniture. In recognition of this our vendor has asked for the pre-auction estimate to be reduced accordingly. In largely solid and well preserved condition, this hugely stylish, understated classic GT car of the 1960s is the perfect candidate for full restoration to original condition. The 330 is supplied with a record of continuous ownership from new, a copy of the original buff logbook and an original Ferrari 330 brochure. A UK V5C will need to be applied for, which Dore & Rees are happy to assist with if required.

1966 TRIUMPH T100 / 5TA        Registration Number: ADM 674A     Frame Number: TBA Recorded Mileage: TBA The T100 was aimed at the enthusiastic sports rider, the 100 in T100 coming from the manufacturer’s claimed top speed of 100mph.  The example offered here was restored in 2014, with a frame supplied to Johnson’s Motors of Pasadena in California. Subsequently repatriated, the bike’s restoration was completed using an earlier T100 unit supplied to Comerfords of Thames Ditton in 1959. The bike has been stored in a private collection recently and no doubt will benefit from a small amount of recommissioning before being used once more. This lovely Triumph is supplied with a current V5C and supporting documentation from the Vintage Motorcycle Club.

1987 PORSCHE 911 3.2 TARGA Registration Number: D306 GYE          Chassis Number: WPOZZZ91ZHS140584                         Recorded Mileage: c.97,000 miles - Two private owners from new - 97,000 miles, full Porsche/specialist service history - Rare Non-Sport specification from new The name “Targa” came from the Targa Florio sports car road race in Sicily, Italy, in which Porsche had notable success, with seven victories since 1956, and four more to come until 1973. This last win in the subsequently discontinued event is especially notable as it was scored with a 911 Carrera RS against prototypes entered by Italian factories of Ferrari and Alfa Romeo. The road going Targa had a stainless steel-clad roll bar, as Porsche had, at one point, thought that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) would outlaw fully open convertibles in the US, an important market for the 911. What a find this beautiful 1987 911 Targa is! Fitted with the later, and much improved G50 gearbox, D306 GYE was originally supplied by Follett of Mayfair to the first owner in February of 1987, changing hands just once in 2015 to the current keeper. Finished in Venetian Blue metallic with a part-leather Marine Blue interior, this rare non-Sport version is presented just as it left the factory, wearing its correct Teledial alloy wheels, fitted still with its factory-optioned Blaupunkt Toronto radio cassette player, and with its original tool roll, compressor and accessories pack.  This Targa has clearly enjoyed much care and attention, supported by a maintenance book containing a total of 12 services, the most recent in September 2021 at 97,344 miles. Looking through the fully stamped service book, we see initial maintenance was undertaken by main dealer Charles Follett, followed by AFN of Guildford and specialist Camtune, and in current ownership by JZM Porsche and Number 5 Garage of West London.  Other than regular maintenance, the Porsche has also benefited from the recovering of the Targa roof with the correct-type black vinyl. With only around 100 miles since its last major service, and supplied with a full book back, Porsche Certificate of Authenticity, UK V5C, bills for maintenance in current ownership, and two sets of keys, this is a wonderful example of a very usable modern classic Porsche.

1951 JAGUAR XK120 OTS “ROADSTER” Registration Number: LXJ 300 Chassis Number: 660612 Recorded Mileage: 31,310 miles - Original RHD example, delivered new via Henlys of Manchester - Entrant in the 1977 Mille Miglia and other period historic motorsport events - Complete with detailed history file dating to the 1970s A war-fatigued Britain, still getting back onto its feet following the 2nd World War, saw a glimpse of the future in October 1948 with the launch of the Jaguar XK120 at the Earls Court Motor Show. The ‘120’ referred to the car's top speed which, at the time, made it the fastest production car in the world. Jaguar seems to have always had a flair for marketing and to illustrate that the car's top speed was not a figment of a publicist's imagination, in May 1949, on the Jabbeke to Aeltre autoroute, an XK120 with its hood and side screens in place recorded a speed of 126mph, and no less than 132mph with the hood and windscreen detached and an undertray fitted. The car was in almost instant demand and went on to spawn the famous XK lineage of fast and elegant sports cars. The XK120 became a massive success both on the road and the track, where it scored numerous victories. The many drivers included Stirling Moss, Peter Walker, Peter Whitehead, Leslie Johnson and Ian Appleyard. In XK120C/C-Type form it won Le Mans in both 1951 and 1953, while its engine was to power three more Le Sarthe winners and a whole host of successful Jaguar models for the next fifty years. This wonderful survivor was delivered to its first owner via Henlys of Manchester on 1st February, finished in Pastel Blue with Duo Blue interior trim and a French Grey fabric roof. The XK changed hands several times in the following twenty or so years until being acquired by a Mr. David Bowles in response to classified advert placed in Motor Sport magazine in May 1976. Mr. Bowles promptly prepared the Jaguar for a new career in historic rallying, commencing with the first Mille Migla retrospective event of June 1977. The detailed history file contains his entry pack for the event, in Italian of course and containing schedules and maps, in addition to a rather delicious looking menu for the dinner finale.  The trusty Jaguar went on to participate in, amongst others, the 1979 Del Garda Circuit Race, the 1980 VSCC Pomeroy Memorial and Wiscombe Hill Climb, the Shelsley Walsh Hill Climb in 1984 and the Norwich Union Classic in 1989. The Bowles kept their beloved XK for a further 17 years before in 2006 ownership passed to our current vendors, motorsport enthusiasts and locals to Prescott Hill Climb. In preparation for rallying in period the Jaguar was fitted with a later 3.8 litre Jaguar motor fed via twin 2-inch SU carburettors. The original 3.4 litre engine, which was subject to a full rebuild in the 1990s but has not run since, is also supplied with the car.  Having not been restored since the 1970s but well maintained over the years, in the last 15 or so years this lovely original Jaguar has enjoyed regular servicing and minor running repairs as and when required. Notably the car was treated to various recommissioning works in 2022, supported by an invoice for £1585. The comprehensive history file supplied with the XK contains the original buff logbook and more recent registration documents, various correspondence going back to the 1970s, bills for maintenance works and older mechanical rebuilds, and a number of older MoT certificates.  Presented in admittedly a few shades of Willow Green with nicely worn in interior, and featuring a number of period scrutineering stickers still on the dashboard, this charming old Jaguar could be driven as is or fully restored as the next owner so wishes.

1997 LOTUS ESPRIT V8 Registration Number: R623 EAA                           Chassis Number: SCCO82918VHA15276 Recorded Mileage: 7,239 miles The silver Italdesign concept that eventually became the Esprit was unveiled at the Turin Motor Show in 1972, and was a development of a stretched Lotus Europa chassis. It was among the first of designer Giorgetto Giugiaro''s polygonal "folded paper" designs. Originally, the name Kiwi was proposed, but in keeping with the ''E...'' naming format of Lotus tradition, the name became Esprit. For the S4 of 1993, Lotus designer Julian Thomson took another crack at keeping the Esprit relevant. The biggest changes were to the bumpers and the aero package, with a restyled rear spoiler. Engine output remained the same as the previous SE model at 264bhp, but in 1994 the Esprit S4 Sport arrived, with added engine modifications it topped a heady 300bhp from the 2.2-litre turbocharged four pot. The introduction of a V8-powered Esprit in 1996 was the biggest news in some time. The flat-plane-crank 3.5 litre engine was of Lotus design, fed by twin Garrett turbochargers, and driven through a modified Renault-sourced five-speed transaxle. The 0-60 sprint dropped once again, this time to the low four second range. A Sport 350 variant included bigger brakes, bigger aero bits, and stiffer suspension. A final facelift in 2002 by Russell Carr was the last major change for the Lotus Esprit, which ended production in 2004. This wonderful low mileage Esprit V8 has been in the custody of just two owners from new, who between them have covered just over 7,000 miles in 25 years. First registered in November 1997, the Esprit was specified in rare Ruby Red metallic with a Magnolia leather interior and carpeting in red. One or two other options were specified such as a full sports exhaust system, glass sunroof (in addition to the factory item), and an Alpine CD player, as noted in the original bill of sale for £56,850. The Lotus has been maintained correctly over the years, by Lotus Dealer Haydon of Salisbury at 1,644, 4,026, 4,453 and 5,548 miles, and latterly by leading Lotus specialist Cos De-Martino of Sportomotive in Bournemouth, who further serviced the Esprit at 6,404 miles, and most recently at 7,176 miles in 2017. Currently reading a genuine 7,239 miles from new, this is a truly unique example of this model, which has been dry stored by our current vendor in the last few years. Offered with a UK V5C, stamped Lotus service book, a number of older MoT certificates and several maintenance invoices over the years, this genuine low-mileage example of one of the best incarnations of the legendary Esprit, is well worth a closer look.

1965 JAGUAR C-TYPE BY PROTEUS Registration Number: CHG 635C Chassis Number: 1B54867DN/CC2121 Recorded Mileage: Under 50 road miles from new - All-aluminium single-door period Le Mans chassis by Proteus  - 3.8 litre Jaguar engine with triple Weber carburettors - Running in mileage only since completion Where else to start but with legendary test driver Norman Dewis. Whilst testing a C-Type for The Motor, he summed the new model up thus: "Within a very few hours of first acquaintance, the experienced driver feels well able to travel at speeds in excess of 120mph whenever the road traffic conditions render such motoring prudent…as the speed climbs beyond the 130 mark, the car does tend to feel a little light, but the curious sense of becoming faintly airborne is offset by no loss whatever in directional controls. At such speed there is no shake or even tremble in the body nor is there anything to indicate that much higher speeds would not feel equally safe to the occupants in the car. The driving of the Jaguar XK120C on the motor roads of Europe is in fact a great and memorable experience." Built in a remarkably short space of time, the first ever competition model from Jaguar, the C-type brought the firm international recognition in motor racing. Following Leslie Johnson’s impressive outing at the 1950 Le Mans in an XK120 S, management approved the development of a new racing model based on the XK, initially named the XK 120 C, the model was later known as the C-Type. The new model started with an all-new lightweight tubular space frame, redesigned rear suspension and an upgraded 3.4-litre engine with a new cylinder head, high-lift camshafts, racing pistons and a side-exit dual exhaust system. Stylist Malcolm Sayers designed the wonderful coachwork with the classic elliptical grill. Three factory C-Types were entered into Le Mans in 1951, two retiring early but Peter Walker’s and Peter Whitehead’s car pressed on for victory, becoming the first British car to win Le Mans in almost 20 years. Duncan Hamilton returned in 1953 in his Weber-carburetor fed “Lightweight” to win again, meanwhile Jaguar built a further 40 or so customer cars. Rare, beautiful and historically significant, the C-Type was a true watershed moment in the evolution of post-war racing sports cars. Unsurprisingly there remains a healthy level of interest in authentic replicas of this rare and exotic racer. Originally named ‘Copycat’, Proteus was founded in 1980 by architect Jim Marland, the company being re-named as Proteus in 1983. Over the years Proteus developed a reputation for building some of the finest Jaguar C-Type recreations available, ultimately focusing entirely on the production of this vehicle. In true Jaguar XK120-C tradition, the Proteus features a tubular chassis with a lightweight aluminium body, period Jaguar engine and drivetrain, and authentic period design details such as the leather bonnet straps, original-style dials, wire wheels on spinners and a Le-Mans style fuel filler. The Proteus was always supremely quick, with a quoted 260 BHP, and was capable of reaching 0-60 in a shade over five seconds. Each car was built to customer specifications, with various options for colour and trim. Only around twenty cars were built each year, making the Proteus C-type both rare and desirable. The build of this fabulous Proteus C-Type started over 20 years ago, the basis being frame number CC2121, an earlier Proteus C-Type replica chassis, with a lightweight all-aluminium single door “Le Mans” body and vented bonnet. The former owner, a prominent historic racer and collector, and custodian of a genuine factory C-Type, was exacting in his requirements for this pet project. In addition to its lightweight body, our car features a 3.4 litre XK engine with period-correct triple Weber carburettors, a four-speed gearbox with overdrive, live rear axle, 16” wire wheels and disc brakes on each corner. Early in the build the owner was dissatisfied with the fit and shape of the bonnet supplied, and so commissioned a brand new aluminium bonnet by CMC of Bridgenorth, complete with authentic Le Mans 1953 scoop to feed its thirsty Webers. The car was actually completed in the early 2000s, but was subsequently dry stored for some years before being recently recommissioned in preparation for road use.  This wonderful example presents very nicely with only the slightest evidence of road use and age. The paint shows an excellent finish throughout, capturing the fluidity of the undulating lines as achieved over 70 years ago. The construction of the body panels is exceptional, with excellent fit and finish, authentic and attractive exterior trim and lighting, a properly nested side exhaust, clear headlight covers, and correctly painted wire wheels. The aircraft-inspired cockpit is focused, purposeful and engaging, the low windscreen and additional aero-screens effectively transport you back to this golden era of motor racing. Climbing in creates a sense of racing heritage and purposeful features; neatly clustered instruments sit behind an attractive wooden steering wheel. The authentic green leather seats sit neatly in the cockpit, revealing just a few painted frame tubes, a reminder of the C-Type’s racing heritage. Under the bonnet, the engine features prominently with its Weber carburettors, a handmade aluminium airbox, polished cam covers and tubular exhaust manifolds. Finished in a correct shade of Jaguar racing green, this is a highly accurate replica of the original 1953 winner, finished to an exceptional standard and with only a handful of shakedown miles since completion. The C-Type is supplied with invoices totalling over £40,000 for its build, with much work in period by specialist Legends Racing of Cheltenham (is in addition to the initial cost of the base Proteus chassis/body and donor engine, transmission and drivetrain). The car has been serviced in September 2022 to ensure proper operation and driveability, and fitted with a new starter motor, fuel pumps and lines, attention to the suspension, carburation and running, and new Blockley tyres on each corner. A masterpiece of automotive design and racing excellence, the Jaguar C-Type is a car only a few in the world can truly aspire to. This highly authentic replica offers the enthusiast to live the 1950s Le Mans dream in what is effectively a barely run-in example of the marque. This super C-Type will be supplied with UK V5C, new MOT certificate and file of invoices detailing its older build and recent expenditure.

1999 FIAT BARCHETTA Registration Number: T34 KGO Chassis Number: 0043561 Recorded Mileage: 56,000 The Fiat Barchetta roadster, pronounced 'bar-KET-ta' and which in Italian means 'little boat', was developed between 1990 and 1994 with the project name `Tipo B Spider 176' by Andreas Zapatinas and Alessandro Cavazza under the supervision of Peter Barrett Davis and other car designers at the Fiat Centro Stile (albeit the prototyping being carried out by Stola). Produced from February 1995 to June 2005, although production was paused between 2002 and 2004 due to the coachbuilders Maggiora's bankrupcy, the Barchetta was based on the chassis of the Mark 1 Fiat Punto with a 130bhp / 121lbft 1.8 litre `twin-cam' petrol engine featuring variable camshaft timing. Weighing in at 1056 kg (2328 lb) without air conditioning, the Barchetta could accelerate from 0-60mph in 8.7 seconds and touch 124mph but was limited to left hand drive cars only, even though the car was marketed and sold in two right hand drive markets - the United Kingdom and Japan. Finished in Midnight Blue with a black interior, this 1999 model shows a sensible 56,000 miles from new, and has clearly been looked after over the years. The Barchetta comes with its original Fiat book pack and service book, showing evidence of regular maintenance. The bodywork presents well with good paint and the odd age-related mark, the interior is similarly in good order, still fitted with its original dealer-fitted radio/cassette, and the convertible roof has recently been replaced with a smart new mohair item. With a recent MoT certificate valid to August 2023, this stylish Italian sports-car makes a worthy alternative to the more obvious choices from its Japanese or German rivals.

1985 PORSCHE 944 COUPE Registration Number: C612 VPL Chassis Number:  WPOZZZ94ZGN401398 Recorded Mileage: 112,000 miles ‘Here was a model much more in the Porsche tradition, a 217km/h (135mph) coupé with sparkling acceleration and superlative handling. Some 90,000 were built during a 10-year manufacturing life.’ – Jonathan Wood, ‘Porsche – The Legend’. Announced in 1981, the 944 was the third of Porsche’s new family of front-engined sports cars. The first of the line, the 924, had arrived in November 1975 and drew heavily on Volkswagen/Audi components: the 2.0-litre, four-cylinder, overhead-camshaft engine being a development of the Audi 100’s and the four-speed transaxle transmission a VW unit. Six years later, along came its close relative – the 944 – which was constructed along similar lines and from a distance hard to tell apart from its 924 progenitor. Beneath the bodywork (50mm wider than the 924’s) was a 2.5-litre, 163bhp overhead-camshaft ‘four’ – in effect half of the 928’s V8 bored out – fitted with twin balancer shafts to counter the vibration often encountered in such units. The rear transaxle – a five-speed affair this time – was retained, while the 924-type running gear was suitably up-rated to cope with the 944’s superior performance. Subsequent developments included a Turbo, 16-valve 944S/S2 and a cabriolet. First registered in November 1985, this early facelifted Porsche 944 was specified from new in a very period colour scheme of Mahogany Brown Metallic with a matching chocolate pinstriped velour interior. The 944 was formerly the pet-project of an employee of McLaren racing, who treated the Porsche to a full belts service with all fluids, an overhaul of the power steering pump, new anti-roll bar bushes, front and rear brake pads, CV boots, and sundry other smaller items. In current ownership the 944 has gained a newly retrimmed original steering wheel, the dash top has been recovered, the heater controls repaired, rear boot latches repaired, sunroof mechanism repaired, a few minor electrical glitches rectified. Receipts for in the region of £3,000 support this recent work. Showing just over 110,000 miles from new, the Porsche is said to drive and perform well, and is offered with a current UK V5C, its original book pack and various receipts and bils for recent maintenance in the last few years. Although running and driving nicely, the 944 would now benefit from some cosmetic attention to the paintwork and trim. Forget about firing up the Quattro, instead go with this cooler, more refined, unburstable modern classic.

1963 TRIUMPH TR4 Registration Number: 848 VDH  Chassis Number: TBA Recorded Mileage: c.17,000 miles - UK delivered from new - Matching numbers example - Recent £30,000 restoration to fast-road specification The Triumph TR4 was introduced in 1961 to follow its very successful predecessors, the TR2 and TR3. Code named ‘Zest’ during development the body was given a more modern and updated appearance by Michelotti but its drivetrain and chassis remained the same using the well proven 4 cylinder pushrod unit, however its capacity was increased from 1991cc to 2138cc. Handling was improved by a three inch wider track and steering was also updated to the more modern and precise rack and pinion system. Internally the car gained wind up windows and the new angular rear end allowed for a boot with a very reasonable luggage capacity for a sports car. Another innovation was the option of an alloy hard top with a removable roof panel that was five years ahead of Porsche’s famous 911 Targa. 40,235 cars were built between 1961 and 1965 and over the years this car has become one of Triumph’s most popular sports cars This beautiful and rare matching numbers example was delivered to its first UK owner in April 1963. In recent years the TR4 has enjoyed a comprehensive restoration to fast-road specification, which was completed around three years ago. During the restoration the TR4 was fitted with a number of upgrades, which include uprated braking, a fast road engine and other minor modifications such as rally lamps (currently not fitted). The interior is nicely appointed with more comfortable modern leather sports seats (the originals are available if required), walnut dash and a grippy Moto Lita steering wheel. Since completion the TR4 has been driven seldomly, as such the owner has decided to pass on to a new enthusiast who will enjoy the car more than he is currently able to. The overall impression of this car is very positive; the coachwork is in excellent order, the interior tidy and inviting, and the engine bay well detailed. Supplied with a detailed file of recipes and photographs outlining the restoration and upgrades, a warranty for the rebuilt engine, the desirable Surrey Top, and still on its original registration number, 848 VDH, this TR4 is an attractive proposition for the keen driver seeking a fast yet useable 1960’s sports car.

1950 Dellow Mk 1Registration number: NUM 430Date of first registration: 01/09/1950VIN number: 113450Engine number: 6017MOT expires: NAV5C present listing 1 former keepers since 1950Current mileage shown: 1172ccRedThe origins of Dellow date back to 1949 when Ken Dellingpole and Ron Lowe started series production of a small sporting car that was ideal for trials but also well suited to regular use on the road. The MKII, with coil spring rear suspension, appeared in late 1950. Dellows were used in rallies and races as well as in many hundreds of trials events. Around 500 Dellows were built, with over half being exported. This very nice restored MKll sports it’s original 1172cc Ford engine. It has been finished to a very high standard and ready for the road or classic trial. VIEW VIDEO - Condition Report

Bentley Racing TourerRegistration number: BLT 988Chassis registered with Bentley owners club in 1934VIN number: U5BHEngine number: NAChassis Number: B80CR(Original Engine Number: U5BH)MOT expires: NANew Version V5C present listing no former keepersCurrent mileage shown4900ccGreenthe 3½ litre Bentley with chassis number B80 CR was delivered in January 1935 with engine no U5BH, carrying a 4-door saloon body constructed by Arthur Mulliner of Northampton and registration number BLT 988. Arthur Mulliner constructed 41 bodies for Derby Bentleys between 1934 and 1939, 39 saloons and 2 fixed head coupes. Very few of their original bodies have survived, maybe 10 or fewer. In 1939 they were bought by Henlys and ceased coachbuilding after 179 years, their origins being traced back to 1760. B80 CR was ordered by H M Bentley & Partners of Hanover Court, London W1 and was sold to D E Pelly Esq of Yew Tree Cottage, Higham, Colchester, Essex. B80 CR replaced Mr Pelly’s earlier Park Ward special drophead coupe B90 AH, also supplied through H M Bentley & Partners in May 1934. The chassis card (copy attached) shows that the car was returned to H M Bentley & Partners two years later, traded in for B1 HM, a 4 ¼ litre Bentley with standardised All Steel saloon coachwork by Park Ward. B80 CR was then sold later in 1937 to a J. Heber Percy, a diplomat at the British Embassy in Alexandria Egypt who kept it until 1945. This may well have been Josceline Reginald Heber-Percy, born 1880 in the Isle of Wight, brought up at Hodnet Hall in Shopshire, who married a cousin in Warwick in 1904, had two daughters and a son before serving in WWI first with the Northumberland Fusiliers, and then with the Argyll & Sutherland Highlanders and rising to the rank of Captain. He later became Deputy Lieutenant of Warwickshire. He died in 1964.This beautifully built Bentley based on a 1930’s Derby chassis took its inspiration for the 1920’s TT model. Early success in the 1922 Isle of Man Tourist Trophy, when Bentleys finished second, fourth and fifth to take the Team Prize, led to the introduction of the TT Replica (later known as the Speed Model) The current owner has spent years creating an impressive and capable, sporting special which bares all the correct features and proportions of a vintage machine. Importantly this car has a prewar identity and coupled up with a 1950s 4.9 litre engine it performs as well if not better than a 1920's four and a quarter litre. Originally registered BLT 988 in 1935 on an Arthur Mulliner four door saloon, it was found in the mid 1990s as a derelict barn find. All that remained was the original chassis, bulkhead, axles and bonnet.. This was the perfect base for a sporting 1920s special and the new owner lovingly and diligently created the perfect 1920's style replica. The car is finished extremely well sporting a period style, fabric body and accurate wings. The interior is trimmed beautifully in green leather and the dashboard sports the correct style period dials .On the road it sounds glorious and has huge amounts of power capable of keeping up with modern traffic.

Nico Wilhelm Jungmann (1872-1935) study of five naked men pulling a rope, signed "Nico" and dated 1917, inscribed "Ruhleben" Pencil drawing signed "Nico" and dated 1917, in carved wooden frame probably carved by the artist whilst imprisoned. inscribed "Ruhleben", also bears official censor's mark for "The Ruhleben Prisoner of War Camp", : Ruhleben was a civilian detention camp during the First World War, located in a village ten kilometres west of the City of Berlin. The camp detainees included men of the Allied Armies who were living, studying, working or on holiday in Germany at the outbreak of the First World War, including the crew of several civilian ships stranded in German harbours, a number of fishermen and various academics. The German authorities adhered to the Geneva Convention and allowed the camp detainees to minister their own internal affairs and gradually many societies evolved within the camp with letters, books, sports equipment and printing press being allowed in the camp. The detainees organised their own Police Force, magazine, library and postal service, which was known as the Ruhleben Express Delivery. The detainees also arranged their own entertainment and they had the Ruhleben Musical Society which produced the Mikado and the pantomime version of Cinderella, the Drama Society acting a production of Othello, Twelfth Night and The Importance of Being Ernest. Sports also played a major role in the life of the camp and numerous matches and tournaments were arranged for cricket, rugby, tennis and golf. Among the notable prisoners at Ruhleben was the artist Nico Jungmann. 10.5013.50
