1978 Fiat 124 Spider- Recent professional respray in original colour- New soft top- Blue tooth and hands free facilityFiat's handsome 2+2 124 Sport Spider made its debut at the 1966 Turin Motorshow. The Ferrari 275 GTS-esque newcomer was styled and manufactured by Pininfarina and based on a shortened version of the popular 124 Saloon platform. Targeted at the American market, the newcomer was powered by a belt-driven DOHC version of the Saloon's four-cylinder pushrod unit, complete with alloy crossflow head. Initially 1,438cc in size, it grew in stages over 20 years to 1,995cc, taking the power output from 89bhp to 104bhp respectively (133bhp in the case of the 1,995cc turbo engine). The engine drove through either an all synchromesh five-speed manual gearbox or a General Motors three-speed automatic unit. Suspension was independent at the front by wishbones and coil springs, and by live axle, Panhard rod and coil springs at the rear. Braking was powerful courtesy of discs all-round and the steering was initially by worm and roller, but eventually rack and pinion. The model line finally ceased in 1985 after almost 200,000 Spiders had been produced - 75 per cent of which were destined for the American market.The lefthand drive sale car was one of the 75 percent and spent all its life in the US until recently, when it proved to be the perfect basis for a major refurbishment project. Now fully UK registered, it was completely stripped before being professionally resprayed in its original livery of Ferrari Rosso Corsa. The Spider is trimmed in Black and sports a new Black soft top that was selected to tone in with its refurbished dashboard. This particular example is powered by the 1,756cc twin-cam engine that was standard fit between 1974 and 1978. Only recently serviced and MOT'd, the Fiat is said to 'drive and hold the road well' and comes complete with new Bluetooth Pioneer radio with hands free phone facility.
Lot 112
1989 Porsche 911 Carrera 3.2 Speedster PLEASE NOTE: We have been contacted by David Titchener to say that he bought this lot new from Dick Lovett of Swindon and had it registered as 'THE 89S' (The '89 Speedster) PLEASE NOTE: We have been informed by the vendor's family that this lot retains its original front tyres. Apparently, the rear tyres were only replaced in April 2012 because of a nasty cut to the nearside one. They believe that the presence of the original front tyres lends further credibility to the odometer reading of 17,500 miles. PLEASE NOTE: This lot is now registered with the DVLA under the number plate 'G542 TTV' - 1 of just 64 UK-supplied (C16 specification) examples - Factory-fitted with 'Turbo look' bodywork and electrically adjustable sports seats - 17,500 recorded miles, original Blaupunkt Toronto stereo, tyre compressor and tool kit Given the 356 Speedster's cult status, it seems amazing that Porsche took twenty-five years to launch a similarly minimalist drop-top 911. Brainchild of Peter Schutz and Helmuth Bott (the company's then President and Technical Director respectively), the Carrera 3.2 Speedster was visually distinguished from its Cabriolet sibling by a bespoke, more steeply raked aluminium-framed windscreen, simplified hood hidden beneath a distinctive `double hump' moulded polyurethane tonneau cover, lower slung sports seats and frameless side windows. The work of in-house stylist Tony Lapine, its distinctive lines were enhanced still further by the option of `Turbo-look' bodywork (which also entailed uprated suspension and brake components). A strict two-seater unlike the rest of the 911 range, it was powered by a 3164cc flat-six engine allied to the preferred G50 five-speed manual transmission. Living up to its name, the Speedster was capable of 0-60mph in 6 seconds and 152mph. Although previewed as a concept car at the 1987 Frankfurt Motor Show, the model did not enter production until January 1989. Notable as the last 911 variant to be derived from the same basic bodyshell as the 1963 original, the Carrera 3.2 Speedster was also the final 911 to be assembled at the old Zuffenhausen factory. Known internally as Option M503, the last of 2,104 examples rolled off the production line during July 1989. All but 171 customers specified the more dramatic `Turbo-look' bodywork with America and Germany proving the biggest markets. Of the 129 right-hand drive Speedsters made, just 64 were to UK `C16' specification. Embracing the less is more philosophy, Porsche charged a not insubstantial premium for the Speedster despite terming its roof a `rain hat' and demanding that original purchasers sign a disclaimer as to water and wind ingress! One of the sixty-four UK cars, chassis WPOZZZ91ZKS151277 was built to the following specification: Impact absorbers front and rear (058), Blaupunkt Toronto Radio Cassette player (330), Sports seat left, electric height adjustment (383), Sports seat right, electric height adjustment (387), Front and rear spoiler delete - i.e. none fitted (470), Turbo-look bodywork (491), Amplifier (494), Luggage compartment velour carpet (975), Guards Red paint (L80K) and Cashmere Beige upholstery (LC). First road registered as `THE 89S' on August 1st 1989, it had had three previous keepers prior to entering the current ownership twenty years ago the last of whom was Christopher Nowicki of Loughborough. Although, the vendor's ill health means that the low recorded mileage of 17,500 cannot be warranted, it certainly appears correct. Factory stickers are still present in the door jamb and under the luggage compartment lid. Pleasingly retaining its original engine and running well during our recent photography visit, we could not discern any sign of previous accident damage or repair. Maintained in-house by the owner's ex-Holbay mechanic, the Speedster still carries its original space saver spare wheel (with unused Vredstein tyre), Porsche plug-in air compressor, jack, tool roll and Blaupunkt stereo (complete with instructions). Issued with an `advisory free' MOT certificate which runs until January 2nd 2019, the two-seater is currently undergoing a cherished number plate transfer. Rare, desirable and coming to market for the first time since 1998, this seemingly low mileage `C16' Speedster is worthy of close inspection.
Lot 132
1990 Ferrari Testarossa- 1 of just 438 UK market right-hand drive examples- 22,200 miles from new and current ownership since 2013- Offered with leather wallet, handbooks, service book plus old invoices and MOT'sFerrari's mid-engined, flat-12 Testarossa was unveiled to an expectant media on the eve of the 1984 Paris Salon. Though an evolution of the 512BBi, it had a markedly different appearance. To avoid the high cabin temperatures of its predecessor, it featured a pair of rear-mounted radiators rather than a single front-mounted one. This called for large, slatted intake ducts leading from the doors and rear quarter panels, giving the newcomer both its distinctive looks and considerable girth.The Testarossa name (Italian for 'red head') echoed Ferrari's immortal Testa Rossa sports racing cars of the 1950s and the cam covers were painted red, as before. The five-litre Colombo-designed unit was very similar to that of the 512BBi but featured four-valves per cylinder. Together with other improvements, it produced a healthy 390bhp - sufficient to power the sleek new Prancing Horse to 60mph in just over five seconds and on to a top speed of some 180mph. The Testarossa reigned for seven years, before metamorphosing into the 512TR and finally the 512M. For obvious reasons, examples of the 438 UK market right-hand drive cars come to market increasingly rarely these days. This one, finished in the classic combination of Rosso Red bodywork and Black hide interior, is a 1990 model that, to this day, has covered just c.22,200 miles. Having been in the current ownership since 2013, 'G662GVN' was subject to its annual service and cambelt change in 2014 by Ferrari specialist Kent High Performance cars featured in Classic and Sportscar's 70th anniversary Ferrari magazine. Offered with leather wallet, handbooks, service book, large collection of invoices, old MOT's, original parts catalogue, tool kit and fitted car cover, the vendor currently rates the engine, gearbox, interior, paintwork and bodywork as 'very good'. This smart example is offered with an MOT certificate into February 2018.
Lot 135
1951 Crosley CD Four Hook & LadderOne of just four "Hook and Ladder" examples built by Overland Amusements of Lexington, Massachusetts between 1949 and 1952 for amusement park, tourist attraction and carnival usage, this novelty ride combines a Crosley CD Four Pickup with a custom-made fifth wheel `hook and ladder' trailer. The trailer features benches down both sides with wooden ladders hinging up and down to act as passenger restraints. Said to have been extensively restored whilst resident in a New Jersey museum for many years, it sports `Itty Bitty Fire Co' livery and a complement of fire-fighting equipment: extinguisher, hose, axe, bell, siren and lights etc. A guaranteed head turner and perhaps welcome at the likes of the Goodwood Revival, the `hook and ladder' is the only one of its kind outside of America. All four examples still exist and the last one to cross the block made$115,500 with Barrett Jackson in 2015! Founded by radio pioneer Powel Crosley, Crosley Motors Inc switched from two- to four-cylinder engines after WW2 adopting the innovative 44ci (722cc) CoBra (Copper Brazed) overhead camshaft unit which had proven its worth as a generator aboard PT boats and Boeing B17 Flying Fortresses. Evolving into the CIBA (Cast Iron Block Assembly) version for 1949, the OHC powerplant developed a quoted 26.5hp and 32.5lbft of torque and was allied to three-speed manual transmission. Current from late 1948 until Crosley closed its doors on July 3rd 1952, the CD Four could be had as a Sedan, Coupe, Convertible, Station Wagon, Pickup or Panel Truck. A Crosley won the first race at Sebring and famous owners included Humphrey Bogart and President Dwight D. Eisenhower. The diminutive width of the Crosley at 48 inches is because they weren't sold through dealerships but department stores, and they had to get them through the doors!
Lot 136
1971 Mercedes-Benz 350 SL- Winner of MB club cup for best 40 year old R107 in 2012- Supplied with hard top and stand- Said to be 6th imported R107 into UKThe Mercedes 107 Series of SLs was built to last, but 'HPK 692K' appears to have done even better than many. It won the Mercedes-Benz Club's 40th Anniversary cup in 2012 for being the best 40 year old R107 in the club, and featured in the March 2008 issue of Classic & Sports Car. Its vendor currently rates the bodywork and Signal Red paintwork as 'excellent', the V8 engine and Black/Grey Tex interior trim as 'very good' and the automatic transmission as 'good'. In recent times the timing chain and tensioners have been replaced and the fuel system refurbished (during which the pipes were replaced with those of an ethanol-resistant material). The righthand drive September 1971 Benz's comprehensive specification includes: rear seats and seat belts; wind deflector; matching hardtop and stand; soft indoor cover; owner's handbook signed by Mercedes driver extraordinaire Stirling Moss; and a large history file. The odometer currently registers 143,378 miles.
Lot 141
1994 Jaguar XJ-S 4.0 ConvertibleBy now, most XJSs are either looking rather down-in-the-mouth or have been restored to one degree or another, which makes 'A1 YDK' something of a time warp example. In storage for many years and only recently recommissioned, it has had three keepers to date, with the vendor retaining it for the last 21 years. He describes the car as 'completely unmolested and original, and as good underneath as it is on top', and considers the bodywork, paintwork, interior trim, straight-six engine and automatic transmission as all being in 'excellent condition'. The Jaguar is presented in the attractive combination of Blue bodywork teamed with Beige hide interior trim and presently displays a totally feasible (though unwarranted) total mileage to date of just 14,638. It comes complete with MOT valid until October 12.Based on the XJ saloon, the XJ-S (later XJS) was launched in September 1975 as a replacement for the legendary E-Type, though it was a cat of very different character. The excellence of its basic design was ably demonstrated by its total production life of 21 years, and comprised a two-door monocoque bodyshell equipped with all-round independent suspension, four-wheel disc brakes and power-assisted rack and pinion steering. However, the original version could only cheat time for so long, and in 1991 parent company Ford thoroughly reworked the luxury grand tourer at a cost of £50 million. With its sheet metal incorporating some 40 percent new panels, the rejuvenated model range sported a revised grille, headlamps, taillights, bumpers and rear wings. Its cabin, meanwhile, gained a new walnut trim facia and improved sports seats. The new version was powered by either a punchy 4.0-litre straight-six or soporific 5.3-litre V12 engine. The former developed 223bhp and 283lb ft of torque and could ably power the newcomer to a refined and relaxing top speed of 140mph.
Lot 24
2000 Rover Mini Cooper SportPLEASE NOTE: This Lot does not come with a car cover.- c.3200 miles from new, stunning top-of-the-range run-out model - Tahiti Blue with Black / Silver interior and stickered Union Jack to roof - Car cover included, cherished registration number, current MoT to 24 July 2018 Introduced in October 1996, the so-called MK7 or MPi Mini was the last evolution of Alec Issigonis' iconic design. Boasting a front-mounted radiator, driver's airbag, taller final drive ratio, multipoint fuel injection and side impact door bars etc, it proved a fitting swansong for one of the world's favourite cars. Only in production from March to October 2000, the Mini Classic Cooper Sport could be distinguished from earlier 'Sport Pack' equipped Coopers by its Platinum (rather than OEW) roof and bonnet stripes. The model's widened wheelarches housed 13x6 alloy wheels, while inside it featured an alloy dashboard as well as alloy window winders, door pulls and door handles. A be-winged green Mini motif appeared on the steering wheel but the choice of exterior colours was limited to Solar Red, British Racing Green, Anthracite or Tahiti Blue. Regardless of their exterior hue, all Mini Classic Cooper Sports carried Nickel Silver leather seats with Black facings. Purchased new from Seawood's Rover, Christchurch on 11th October 2000, just a week before production of the original Mini ended, this stunning example has covered just c.3200 miles from new. Finished in gleaming Tahiti Blue with a stickered (and therefore easily removeable) Union Jack applied to the Platinum Silver roof, the car was displayed centre stage at Beaulieu's 50th Anniversary Mini Day meeting and was the lowest mileage example present. Complete with distinctive and appropriate cherished registration number, X100 PER is offered with Swansea V5C, sundry invoices, car cover and current MoT.
Lot 25
1959 Citroen 2CV- Desirable early example- Subject of a thorough restoration- Offered with a collection of invoicesThe development of the incomparable CitroÙn CV dates back to 1936, ie a couple of years after the company had been rescued by Michelin. Research carried out amongst France's largely rural population determined the unique design brief, that called for: a low-priced, rugged `umbrella on four wheels' that would enable four peasants to drive 110lb of farm goods to market at 31mph in clogs and via muddy, unpaved roads; including transporting eggs across a ploughed field without breaking them. Delayed by WWII, production ran for 42 years from 1948, during which 3,872,583 examples were manufactured. `348 UYX' came to these shores last year. It sports Grey bodywork and Blue interior trim and has clearly been the subject of a thorough restoration, and is now considered by the vendor as `very good' in regard to its bodywork, paintwork, upholstery, twin-cylinder engine and manual gearbox. Its accompanying paperwork includes a collection of invoices and Dutch state of vehicle document.
Lot 26
1999 Jaguar XK8- Supplied new by Evans Halshaw Jaguar of Milton Keynes- 1 owner example and only 13,800 miles from new- Original book pack, handbooks and service book with 12 entriesLiving up to expectations can be a burden. Consider the handsome Geoff Lawson-penned XK8 that followed in the wheeltracks of such automotive icons as the XK120 and immortal E-type. Like the latter, it made its debut at the Geneva Salon - that of 1996 - and from launch was available in either Coupe or Convertible guise. Power came from a normally aspirated 4.0-litre version of the company's DOHC V8 AJ26 engine. This home market 1999 Coupe sports Silver Metallic bodywork teamed with an Ivory leather and 'Classic' wood interior and is equipped with automatic transmission. Supplied new by Evans Halshaw Jaguar of Milton Keynes this 1 owner example has only covered 13,800 miles from new and is offered with original book pack, handbooks and service book with 12 entries plus a collection of old MOT certificates and invoices. The vendor currently classes the bodywork, paintwork, interior trim, V8 engine and gearbox as all being in 'excellent' order whilst the car is offered with a no advisory' MOT into August 2018. A rare opportunity.
Lot 41
1995 Honda NSX- One owner from new manual transmission example- 72,000 miles, recent clutch, cambelt and battery- Formula Red with Black leather, wheels refurbishedThe NSX (New Sportscar eXperimental) was a major departure for Honda, which by 1984 was renowned for its well-engineered but generally quite staid road cars. Its origins lay in the HP-X (Honda Pininfarina eXperimental) concept of that year and wowed the performance car world when it debuted at the 1989 Chicago Auto Show. The intention was to match or better the performance of contemporaneous V8 Ferraris, coupled with superior reliability and lower cost. The styling was inspired by the F-16 fighter jet, the paint process ran to 23 phases, and Ayrton Senna was involved in the vehicle's final development. It was the first mass-production car equipped with an all-aluminium body and was powered by an all-alloy V6 motor featuring Honda's patented VTEC engine control system and titanium connecting rods. The unit drove through a five-speed manual or four-speed sports automatic system. Make no mistake, this was a mould-breaking motorcar that even caused McLaren F1 designer Gordon Murray to say: "When I drove an NSX, all existing benchmark cars vanished from my mind."The apparently immaculate righthand drive example offered hails from 1995, and sports Formula Red bodywork teamed with a Black hide interior. It is a genuine one owner car that was purchased by the vendor from John Banks Honda of Bury St Edmunds and over the ensuing 72,574 miles has been serviced either there or at Norton Way Honda of Letchworth Garden City. The wheels have been refurbished, the last service was performed three thousand miles ago, and a new clutch, cam belt and battery installed a year ago. The vendor currently views the distinctive Coupe bodywork, paintwork, interior trim, engine and manual gearbox to all be in 'excellent' condition and is selling the Honda with owners' wallet (including service book) and MOT to October 31. What's not to like?!
Lot 42
2004 Porsche 911 Carrera 4S- Finsihed in Arctic Silver Metallic with Metropole Blue leather upholstery- 15,826 miles from new and just one owner- Offered with original book pack and service book'KV53 FBJ' is a genuine low mileage (15,826) one owner 996 series Carrera 4S presented in the highly attractive colour combination of Arctic Silver Metallic bodywork and Metropole Blue leather upholstery. This stunning Porsche is equipped with the much-favoured manual gearbox and has been exclusively maintained from new buy Porsche Centre Silverstone, and boasts services at 4,564, 5,683, 6,484, 11,906 and 14,000 miles. The impressive specification includes: 18 inch Turbo II wheels; rear park assist; rear wiper; BOSE sound system; 6 CD autochanger; and part-electric sports seats. It is now being offered complete with its full complement of owners' manuals and pair of original keys. Designed by Pinky Lai, the 996 series 911 was manufactured between 1997 and 2004 and is notable for featuring the first new chassis platform since the model's introduction in 1963, and being the first variant to be powered by a water- rather than air-cooled engine. It replaced the popular 993 series from which only the suspension and six-speed manual gearbox were retained, be it in revised form. Introduced in 2002, the Carrera 4S (or C4S) derivative shared the wide-body look of the Turbo, as well as its brakes and suspension. Its dry sump 3.6-litre engine produced a healthy 320bhp at 6,800rpm; enough to propel the car from rest to 60mph in 5.0 seconds and then on to a potential terminal speed of no less than 174mph.The extraordinary story of the 911 is one of 55 years of development over design, that's completely overcome the handling challenges created by the combination a light front end and a rear-mounted engine. It is extraordinary to think that it is now 40 years since Porsche itself attempted to replace the model with the very different 928, and yet it is still one of the cars to own, bar none.
Lot 45
1968 Jaguar E-Type 4.2 Series 1.5 Roadster- Imported to the UK in 1987, converted to RHD- Much work carried out in the 1990s, triple SU's, Kenlowe fan- Red with Black interior'OJF 742F' started life as a lefthand drive export model that was repatriated from the US in 1987. It is understood to have been restored in the 1990s, during which the chassis was converted to righthand drive and the engine from Stromberg to SU carburation. It has had four keepers since returning to these shores, the previous one of which acquired the Jaguar in 1991 and retained it before placing it in an Anglia Car Auctions sale in 2016, from which it was purchased by the vendor. Dry stored for most of his tenure, the E-Type still only displays a credible, though unwarranted, total mileage of 69,448 and he presently grades the 4.2-litre engine and manual five-speed gearbox as 'very good', the Roadster bodywork as 'good', and the Black leather trim and Red paintwork as average - the latter does display a degree of micro blistering in places.1968 model year E-Types have been retrospectively dubbed Series 1.5 cars. The changes that distinguish them from the preceding Series 1 models were introduced to satisfy the increasingly safety oriented federal regulations and included: open rather than enclosed headlights; black plastic rocker switches for the dashboard as opposed to the toggle variety, black-painted ribbed cam covers, twin cooling fans, and adjustable seat backs. Just 2,801 Series 1.5 Roadsters were produced, of which the sale car is one, though it these days sports fared-in headlights.The last E-Type rolled off the production line 43 years ago, yet the model still has a unique ability to excite enthusiasts of all generations, its Malcolm Sayer-penned lines thought by many, including none other than Enzo Ferrari, to be among the most striking ever to adorn a motor car. Though hardly rare (over 72,000 were built), they understandably remain the apple of many a collector's eye.
Lot 63
1970/2005 Suffolk SS100 Evocation- Built by a professional engineer between 2000 and c.2005- GRP body with XJ6 4.2 engine, silver with blue interior & hood- From a deceased estate, just c.600 miles since buildAmong the first of William Lyons' creations to utilise the Jaguar name, the SS Jaguar 100 entered pre-production in October 1935. Dynamically honed by chief engineer William Heynes and marketed as being `primarily intended for competition work and sufficiently tractable as a fast tourer without modification', the first Jaguar sports car enjoyed a successful racing / rallying career and is now extremely sought after by collectors. It is perhaps no surprise that such an iconic design would be imitated using more modern mechanicals and examples produced by Suffolk Engineering are amongst the best available.Correspondence and invoices in the accompanying history file from Suffolk detail the ordering and build of VAT 850H between 2000 and 2005. Constructed by a professional engineer who had been a development engineer at Marcos in the 1960s, it has seen little use since completion (including outings on the Mendip Rally) and now registers just some 633 miles. Utilising a 1970 Jaguar 4.2 XJ6 as a donor vehicle, whose identity it retains on the V5C document, the car is being reluctantly offered for sale by the family of the late-owner who was a keen Jaguar collector. Finished strikingly in silver with blue leather and blue carpet, the paintwork has some micro-blistering in areas although we feel the car could easily be enjoyed 'as is'. Benefiting from a recent mechanical check over this GRP-bodied evocation of one of the most beautiful pre-War designs has manual overdrive transmission and comes with its original build manual, sundry invoices and correspondence, Jaguar SS sales brochure, framed pencil drawing of the car by a local artist and current MoT.
Lot 67
1950 Jowett Jupiter- Period 1950s documented race history with supporting photographs at Dundrod, Silverstone and Isle of Man British Empire Trophy- 1951 Monte Carlo rally entrant- In storage from 1969 until 2015- Full comprehensive, correctly detailed and photographic restoration to the very highest standard over a 2-year periodEncouraged by the Javelin's success in motorsport, Jowett's prime motivation for the Jupiter was to gain an increase in its steel allocation by exporting a Sports Car version to the USA. The chassis was penned by former Auto Union engineer Eberan von Eberhorst, and the initial intention was for Jowett to supply production examples of it for independent coachbuilders to add their own design of body, and 75 frames were duly supplied to names such as Stablilimenti Farina, Ghia Suisse, Gebruder Beutler, Richard Mead and Abbotts of Farnham for this purpose. However the costs involved proved hard to justify for a car of such relatively modest power, and the factory was ultimately obliged to pen and create its own bodies. Crafted in aluminium, they featured two doors leading to a single bench seat. Luggage space was gained from inside, while the whole of the front hinged upwards from the scuttle to give optimum access to the engine and transmission. Power was provided by a high compression version of the Javelin's 1486cc flat-four OHV engine mounted well forward in the chassis.What it lacked it outright power, the Jupiter made up for in handling and roadholding, which resulted in an impressive level of international motorsport success, including class wins at Le Mans in 1950, 1951 and 1952; 1950 Monte Carlo Rally; 1951 Dundrod TT; and outright victory in the 1951 Lisbon Rally. Many private owners employed the model for racing, rallying, sprinting and hillclimbing. Production ran from 1950 to 1954, during which around 900 examples were manufactured. A promising-looking composite-bodied successor, the R4, never progressed beyond the prototype stage and the company closed its doors in 1955.The totally immaculate 1950 Jupiter now offered was shipped by the factory to Strobcross Engineering Works of Glasgow on December 19, 1950. Its first keeper was K B Miller who contested the 1951 Monte Carlo Rally with the car, but failed to progress beyond Preston following a second blown head gasket. He also tackled the Rest and be Thankful hillclimb with 'JGA 123', but in August 1951, having reputedly 'gone through so many head gaskets he wanted to drive the Jowett into the Clyde', he sold the car to Bill Skelly, the son of a Motherwell garage man. Skelly entered it for the Dundrod TT the following month, a move that required him to give the Jupiter a temporary coat of dull green distemper, as all cars were required run in their national colours. Despite failing oil pressure, he finished 8th in class and 24th overall and then had the task of replacing the big-end bearings in order to drive home. Skelly and 'JGA 123' also entered the following:- October 1951, Winfield - 13th in 5 lap Saloon event- April 1952, RAC Rally - did not start- May 1952, Silverstone - 7th in Sports Car race- May 1952, Isle of Man - British Empire Trophy, retired a few laps from the finish with valve troubleIn 1953 the Jupiter passed into the hands of John Tyrer (brother of well-known racer Gillie Tyrer), a Liverpool motorcycle dealer, but by the early '60s the car, now White, was the property of another Liverpool resident, Paul Pinkman, who used it until c.1969 before laying it up following a gearbox malady. The Jowett remained in storage until his death in 2014, 10 months following which it was acquired by the vendor, who promptly entrusted it to M.B. Restorations of Queensbury for a two year nut and bolt restoration of the very highest standard.Now resplendent in its original livery of Red bodywork and Brown upholstery, 'JGA 123' it is understandably considered by the vendor to have 'excellent' bodywork, paintwork, interior trim, engine and transmission, and he is now offering this historic Jupiter complete with an extensive history file that includes period competition images as well as a photographic record of the restoration. A unique and exciting opportunity for Jowett aficionados everywhere.

1953 Morgan Plus 4 Four-Seater- In current ownsership since 1989- Morgan main Dealer maintained- Matching numbers carFirst seen in 1950, the Morgan Plus 4 was a larger and more powerful derivative of the company's 4/4 and has remained in production on and off for over 60 years now. Up until 1969 it was powered by the four-cylinder engines found in the Triumph TR range, which were mated to a four-speed manual gearbox with well-spaced ratios. The rakish body was mounted on a variant of Morgan's familiar Z section chassis, underslung at the rear. Suspension was independent by sliding pillars and coil springs at the front and a live axle on semi-elliptic springs at the rear. Braking was by drums all round and steering by a Burman cam and sector system. As tested by Autosport's John Bolster, the 100bhp 1991cc Triumph-engined Plus Four would accelerate to 60mph in 9.6 seconds and on to a top speed of a whisker under 105mph.According to an accompanying 1989 letter from the then registrar, this delightful period Morgan was the only 'flat rad' four-seater Plus 4 known to the Morgan Sports Car Club at that time, so a decidedly rare version. It was purchased for £12,500 in September of the same year by the vendor's family trust, since when it has been continually maintained by renowned Morgan dealer Melvyn Rutter of Bishop's Stortford. The subject of a comprehensive older restoration just 4,543 miles ago, 'SNW 545' is smartly presented courtesy of Dark Green bodywork teamed with Black upholstery and carpets. Self-evident features of interest include the Bluemels steering wheel, quartet of period rear-view mirrors, rear-mounted luggage rack and radio aerial affixed to the left flank. The Morgan rides on silver-coloured steel disc wheels equipped with Avon HM Tourist tyres and highly polished hubcaps. This charming Plus 4 is now offered complete with full hood and tonneau cover and an MOT to August 6.

1967 Jaguar E-Type 4.2 Series 1.5 Roadster- Ground up restoration by Madden Automotive of Long Island, USA completed in 2012- Converted to righthand drive, triple SU's, fitted luggage, Opalescent Green with Tan leather- Imported by the vendor to UK in 2013 and kept in a carcoon, c.500 miles since restorationFor many people, the E-Type remains the ultimate production Jaguar. A car whose heady blend of styling and performance were so exceptional at its 1961 Geneva Motor Show launch they continue to cast a smooth, elliptical shadow over the marque's new sports cars some 55 years later. Its Malcolm Sayer-penned lines are thought by many to be among the most striking ever to adorn a motor car. Indeed, only a few years ago the Daily Telegraph ranked the E-Type top of the '100 most beautiful cars of all time' and, of course, none other than Enzo Ferrari beat them to it by many years when he similarly described it as 'the most beautiful car ever made'.Engine size was increased from 3.8 to 4.2-litres in October 1964 and, with the change, came a sweeter all-synchromesh gearbox, better brakes and electrical systems, and more comfortable seats. Never officially referred to as such by Jaguar, the so-called 'Series 1.5' cars appeared in late 1967. Drip fed a further host of detail improvements prior to the Series 2's official introduction the following October (including a more spacious cabin layout, redesigned convertible hood, larger capacity cooling system and boot hinge covers etc), they understandably remain particularly sought after by enthusiasts.Finished in Opalescent Green with Tan interior, BVG 257E was subject to a ground up restoration at the vendor's request by Madden Automotive of Long Island, USA in 2012 and imported to the UK shortly afterwards. Converted to righthand drive it has been kept in a carcoon and has covered just c.500 miles since. Featuring triple SU carburettors and a set of fitted luggage in the boot by Taris Chaysin Autoluggage of New York, this lovely E-Type roadster comes with Swansea V5C and a current MoT to 26 April 2018.

1913 Rambler Model 83 Cross Country Tourer- Entered from a private collection- Extensively restored in 2001- A powerful Edwardian Tourer powered by a magneto-fed 5.2 litre four-cylinder engine- Rambler cars were guaranteed for 10,000 miles in 1913- Estimate: £30,000 - £40,000 (Without Reserve)A successful bicycle manufacturer, Thomas B. Jeffrey of Chicago, Illinois constructed his first prototype motorcar in 1897. Known as a Rambler, like its pedal-powered predecessors, the single-cylinder machine was progressively developed. Interest shown at the 1899 Chicago International Exhibition and Tournament and the first National Automobile Show in New York City convinced Jeffrey to acquire the old Sterling Bicycle Factory in Kenosha, Wisconsin during 1900 and sell his two-wheeler business to Colonel Albert Pope's conglomerate, the American Bicycle Company, the following year. Introduced in February 1902, the first Rambler production car was priced at $750. A single-cylinder model with tiller steering, it attracted 1,500 orders making the Thomas B. Jeffrey Company second only to Oldsmobile in the sales stakes. Twin-cylinder engines were adopted in 1905 and Rambler moved into the luxury market with a four-cylinder unit two years later. A fatal heart attack saw Charles T. Jeffrey take his father's place in 1910. Renamed Jeffrey in its founder's honour during 1914, the marque was purchased by Charles Nash of Nash Motors two years later. The last design to bear the Rambler moniker, the Model 83 was based on a substantial, 120-inch wheelbase ladder-frame chassis equipped with leaf-sprung suspension and rear wheel brakes. Rated at 42hp, its 318ci (5.2 litre) four-cylinder engine featured magneto ignition and was allied to three-speed manual transmission. Available in seven-seater Gotham Limousine, four-seater Coupe, 2/3-seater Roadster and 4/5-seater Touring guises (the latter two referred to as `Cross County'), every Rambler Model 83 was guaranteed for 10,000 miles in 1913. Finished in Brewster Green over Black with Black deep button upholstery, this particular example - chassis 32374 - was extensively restored during 2001. Nicely detailed, the Rambler sports handsome nickel brightwork, a single rear-mounted spare wheel, tool box mounted on the right running board, folding windshield, dual rear view mirrors, full set of side curtains stowed under the rear seat, robe rail on the back of the front seat, accessory speedometer and a horn mounted on the steering column. Used exclusively by its previous keeper for `brass era' touring events, the Model 83 had its engine attended to over the winter of 2013/2014. Benefiting from an electric starter and lighting, the Cross Country Touring car is rendered even more usable by the provision of an overdrive which enables it to cruise more easily on modern roads. Worthy of close inspection, this imposing Edwardian has formed part of a private collection for the past three years and is offered for sale with French Certificat d'Immatriculation (Carte Grise). Interested parties might like to know that Peter Anderson of www.importedvehicleregistration.co.uk has quoted £300 (inclusive of all DVLA fees) to UK register the Rambler.

1924 LaFayette Model 134 Coupe- Supplied new to the proprietor of a steam locomotive company in North Georgia and purchased from his son by the vendor- Extensively restored to as near original specification as possible at a cost of circa $200,000- A rival to the likes of the Rolls-Royce Springfield Silver Ghost and priced accordingly when new- 1 of just 441 Model 134 cars made during 1924 of all bodystyles- Designed by a group of ex-Cadillac engineers including the Scottish-born D. McCall White who masterminded its 5.7 litre V8 engineEstimate: £25,000 - £35,000 (Without Reserve)Founded during 1919 and based in Mars Hill, Indiana, the LaFayette Motors Company boasted the technical expertise of none other than D'Orsay McCall White. An expat Glaswegian, McCall White served as chief engineer to the Daimler Motor Car Company, D. Napier & Son (where he designed a Land Speed Record car) and Crossley Motors before emigrating to the USA. Personally responsible for devising Cadillac's first V8 engine, the Type 51, he later became the company's vice president and was one of three people entrusted with developing the V12 Liberty aircraft engine during World War One. Drawing upon his aeronautical experience, the 348ci (5.7 litre) V8 engine that McCall White created for the LaFayette Model 134 featured a hollow case crankshaft weighing just 30.5lbs, air-pressurised fuel delivery system (no need for an Autovac / vacuum tank), internally driven accessories using Morse type chains (hence the lack of external pulleys / belts), twin crankshaft-driven back-to-back water pumps, manifolding routed through the cylinder block and a dual exhaust system to the rear of the car which resulted in low back pressure. Fed by a multi-jet carburettor (another of his innovations), the sophisticated powerplant developed 100bhp @ 2,750rpm and was allied to three-speed manual transmission. Based around a substantial ladder frame chassis equipped with all-round semi-elliptic leaf-sprung suspension, worm and sector steering, fully floating back axle and rear wheel brakes, the Model 134 also incorporated thermostatically controlled radiator shutters (a distinct novelty at the time). Relocating to Milwaukee, Wisconsin when Charles Nash of Nash Motors acquired control in 1923, LaFayette nevertheless ceased production the following year. Available in Touring, Sedan, Coupe, Torpedo, Roadster and Limousine guises, a mere 2,267 Model 134 cars were produced. Competition amid luxury car makers during the 1920s was particularly fierce. For all its engineering excellence LaFayette struggled to poach customers from established giants such as Cadillac and Packard especially as the Model 134 was more expensive than the former's offerings and on a par price wise with the latter's; the Four-Door Coupe model costing a princely $4,300 in 1924. The survival rate for LaFayette Model 134 cars has been estimated at just one percent!Finished in Dark Green over Black with Red pinstriping and Grey cloth upholstery, this particular Milwaukee-built example - chassis 2978 - wears Four-Door Coupe coachwork by the Seaman Body Corporation (number 31178). One of a pair of Model 134 cars supplied new to North Georgian steam locomotive manufacturer James Bulan Glover (the other being a Torpedo), it remained in his family until entering the current ownership during 2001. Dry stored in a basement for the previous seventy years, the LaFayette was complete but in need of a full restoration. Displayed `as found' at the Nash Car Club of America's 2002 Grand Nashional meeting, it caused an understandable stir. The vendor estimates that acquiring and refurbishing the Model 134 has cost him some $200,000. Rewired, repainted, retrimmed and treated to a thorough mechanical overhaul, the work took NCCA member Ben Bliss over three years to complete. Undeniably handsome, the Four-Door Coupe body sports a distinctive, prism-like windscreen, LaFayette calormeter, integral luggage trunk, LaFayette Motors Corporation Milwaukee hubcaps and twin rear-mounted spare wheels. To the interior, the well-stocked dashboard is complimented by a wooden steering wheel, wooden window frames, nickel-silver door furniture and blinds to the rear windows. Sparingly used since its completion save for a few rally outings, chassis 2978 is quite possibly the finest Model 134 in existence. Offered for sale with French Certificat d'Immatriculation (Carte Grise), UK V5C Registration Document, FIVA Identity Card, bill of sale from Mr Glover's son (a distant relative of Teddy Roosevelt) and sundry paperwork.

1977 Porsche 911 S Targa- Family ownership for 38 years in California , 25 years in dry storage- All original panels- Extensive optional extras fitted from newThe now ubiquitous Porsche 911 entered production in 1964. The design was the work of Dr Ferry Porsche's eldest son, Ferdinand 'Butzi' Porsche and the company's joint founder and chief body engineer Erwin Kommenda. The car featured rack and pinion steering and both torsion bar suspension and disc brakes all-round and was initially powered by a dry-sump, air-cooled, 2-litre, flat six engine. In 1968, the wheelbase was increased by 57mm, the rear overhang reduced by the same amount, and some 22lb saved from the (overhung) engine crankcase. These changes greatly improved the car's handling. Since its birth, the 911's story has been one of continual evolution. Early on, the engine capacity had been increased to 2.2 litres and during 1971 it rose to 2.4 litres and in 1973 to 2.7-litres. The Targa top option for the 911 was introduced in 1967 and was an immediate success. Initially it featured a folding rear window but fairly soon acquired a fixed rear screen.Now UK registered, this delightfully original-looking and apparently unrestored lefthand drive K-Series 911 S was produced in the last weeks of the 2.7 run and supplied new by Felton Porsche CA in 1977. It remained in California with just two family owners for 38 years, the last 26 of which were spent in dry storage. Its comprehensive specification includes: oil cooler; Blaupunkt Bamberg stereo system with additional amplifier, four speakers, and electric antenna; competition 38mm steering wheel; sports seats; power windows and passenger mirror; centre console; rear wiper; black rather than chrome exterior trim; colour-keyed headlight rims; and headlight washers. Finished in Sienna Metallic Brown and trimmed in Tan-coloured hide, the vendor informs us that 'UPP 824R' has 'never been under sealed and the panels are all original'. Serviced within the last 100 miles it is now being offered complete with: its original service book, handbook and sales brochures; Porsche Certificate of Authenticity; its full original toolkit; and pair of keys. An increasingly rare opportunity.

1921 Wolseley Ten '200-Mile' Race Evocation- Built by enthusiast Colin Thomas during the early 1980s as a faithful copy of Capt. Miller's Works Brooklands racer- Exquisite polished aluminium bodywork reproduced using period photographs by master craftsman Phil Kneller- Featured in the Vintage Sports Car Club's Bulletin and Motor Sport magazines- Offered for sale at a fraction of what it would cost to recreate todayBritain's biggest motorcar manufacturer at the outbreak of World War One, Wolseley built Hispano-Suiza aero engines under licence during the hostilities before developing its own designs. Part of the Vickers Group, it did not want for funds and was able to unveil three new models of 10hp, 15hp and 20hp at the Olympia Motor Show during November 1919 (though, production proper did not begin for over a year). Benefiting from Wolseley's aero engine expertise, the 10hp featured a sophisticated 1260cc four-cylinder OHC engine and three-speed transaxle. Beautifully made, the newcomer was - at £545 - also considerably more expensive than many of its rivals. Keen to boost sales, Wolseley's managing director Arthur McCormack tasked Captain A.G. Miller with establishing a competition department in 1921 (Miller had enjoyed notably success the previous year with two 1914 Opel Grand Prix cars). Bodied as a single-seater in polished aluminium, Miller's first Wolseley Ten racer rose to prominence in late 1921 when it set ten new (1.5-litre class) speed records at Brooklands including averaging 81.79mph for 500 miles! Christened `Moth', the record breaker was said to be comparatively standard mechanically apart from a high-lift camshaft, alloy pistons and larger carburettor etc.Suitably encouraged, Miller ordered a two-seater version to be built for the Junior Car Club's highly prestigious annual 200-Mile Race at Brooklands. Finishing 8th-in-class at an average of 66.2mph in 1922, the two-seater performed even better the following year finishing 10th overall at an average of 76.25mph. Contesting other events aside from the one it had been constructed for, the `200-Mile' car came 3rd in the 1922 Armistice Meeting and 2nd in the 1923 BARC August Meeting. The success of `Moth' and the `200-Mile' car even convinced future Bentley Boy Woolf Barnato to commission and campaign `Moth II'. Sadly, the link between Miller and Wolseley was severed when McCormack resigned at the end of 1923. Thereafter, the Miller Wolseleys faded into obscurity with none surviving to the present day. Inspired by enthusiast John End's recreation of `Moth', Colin Thomas set about making a faithful copy of the `200-Mile' car in the early 1980s. Using an original 1921 Wolselely Ten rolling chassis as the basis and ably assisted by John End, he tasked master craftsman Phil Kneller with reproducing the two-seater's exquisite polished aluminium bodywork from period photographs. Non-standard parts were faithfully manufactured from drawings such as the high-lift camshaft, three-inch diameter outside exhaust pipe, extended oil filler neck to facilitate quick pitstops and bespoke outside handbrake etc.Debuting at the VSCC's Prescott Meeting in August 1984, Thomas's `200-Mile' Evocation appeared in the Club's Bulletin publication several times and, along with End's recreated `Moth', was the subject of an article by Bill Boddy in Motor Sport magazine. Acquired by Stephen Battye for his impressive Yorkshire Car Museum during 2003, the Wolseley was carefully stripped and reassembled after a period of dry storage. The engine and transaxle were overhauled (with the former receiving a new correct-specification carburettor). The steering and braking systems were inspected and a new bulkhead and dashboard fabricated. As well as appropriate Wolseley instrumentation, the cockpit received new Black leather upholstery. The leaf springs were rebound in glace cord and `Wolseley 1' sign-written on the radiator cowl and nearside tail to better mimic Miller's original. Kept in carpeted surroundings for the last few years, the `200-Mile' Evocation is wonderfully detailed and certainly rewards close inspection. Formerly used for sprints / hillclimbs, the Wolseley is offered for sale with a VSCC Buff Form (expired), V5C Registration Document and history file. Needless to say, this jewel-like Vintage racer would cost considerably more than its guide price to restore today!

1971 Triumph TR6- Recent engine overhaul with respected marque specialist- Recent professional respray- Orginal UK RHD carTriumph's TR series began with the unveiling of a prototype (the TR1) at the 1952 London motor show. The TR2 was launched the following year, and so began a series of two-seater sports cars that ended in 1981 with the last of the TR8s. The evolution was steady but continuous and the TR6 unveiled in 1968 was effectively a cleverly updated TR5. For the body revisions Triumph naturally turned to the Italian who had styled the TR4/TR5 - Michelotti. However, he could not meet their schedule and the squaring off of the nose and tail were eventually achieved by the German designers at Karmann. The car's underpinnings were broadly as per the TR5. A total of 94,619 examples were produced, a mere 8,370 of which were sold on the home market.'FHV 1J' belongs to the latter group. Among the previous owners was one who employed it for the Revington Hillclimb and Sprint Championship - hence the roll over bar - as well as travelling through Europe on numerous holidays and rallies. He sold it to a Mr Attfield in 1995, who only retained for a few months before ownership passed to a Mr Board who enjoyed the car for a further 19 years before the vendor took possession. He has recently treated 'FHV 1J' to a total engine overhaul by S & M Triumph of Lincoln, during which hardened valve seats were installed, the fuel injection system refurbished, and a new clutch and high torque starter motor fitted. At the same time the Triumph was resprayed and a new hood put in place. This smartly-presented TR6 is now offered complete with a comprehensive file of the extensive work carried out over the years, including Heritage Certificate, photographs of the restoration, old MOTs that verify the current mileage (the original speedometer was replaced in 1991), and one valid into December.

1977 Ferrari 512 BB- Supplied new to Adplans of London by Cooper Car Sales of Leicestershire- Current ownership since 2012 and just 33,300 miles from new- 1 of just 101 RHD examples- Complete with original order form, sales brochure, book pack and service bookBy the time the Daytona needing replacing, Enzo Ferrari had been won over by the mid-engined concept for his sports cars. The smaller Dino had proved to be a big hit and the mid-mounted offerings of his competitors were proving popular enough. The Pininfarina-designed 365 GT4 BB (where BB stood for Berlinetta Boxer) therefore became Ferrari's first such 12-cylinder road car.It was first presented at the 1971 Turin Motor Show and then a revised version debuted at the Paris Salon of 1976, for which the 512 nomenclature of Ferrari's racing past was resurrected. Aside of an increase in engine size to 4,942cc and a higher compression ratio of 9.2:1, the 512 BB featured a deep chin spoiler, NACA style brake cooling ducts on the flanks, wider rear tyres, twin rather than triple rear lights and twin rather triple exhaust tailpipes. The performance was as impressive as you might expect, the engine's 360bhp being sufficient to propel the Ferrari to 62mph in around 5.4 seconds and on to a top speed of nearly 190mph. Some 929 BB 512 examples wre produced before the model was replaced by the Boxer's final iteration - the fuel-injected BB 512i. The handsomely-presented sale car was supplied new to Adplans of London by Cooper Car Sales, Leicestershire. 1 of just 101 RHD examples its finished in Red over Black complemented by Black hide upholstery, it's been in the current ownership since 2012 and evidently covered just 33,300 miles from new. It benefited from a new clutch in 2012 and, more recently, the replacement of the plugs, distributor cap and handbrake lever, and retune of its Weber carburettors. The Boxer is now offered complete with: original order form; sales brochure, book pack and service book, tool kit; large collection of invoices; details of previous keepers; and an advisory-free MOT into February 2019. The registration 'BB 512' is available by separate negotiation.

It is finished in an attractive shade of Metallic Blue teamed with Red-coloured brake calipers and Beige leather interior trim. Its 5.7-litre LS1 V8 engine benefits from a stainless steel sports exhaust that's complemented by a pair of fast-flow catalytic converters and Magnaflow tail section, plus a K&N air filter. Other improvements over the standard specification include uprated brake discs, suspension drop links and alloy wheels. The vendor currently classes the Targa-style bodywork, paintwork, all-alloy small-block engine and rear-mounted automatic transmission as being in 'excellent' order and the interior trim as 'very good'.
