1989 Mercedes-Benz 300 SL Transmission: automaticMileage:94777The Mercedes-Benz R107 SL model was launched in 1971 and continued a tradition of two-door sports tourers from the world famous German manufacturer that dates back to 1954. The car featured a two-door monocoque bodyshell with independent all-round suspension. The success and popularity of the model is borne out by the 237,287 units that were produced during the cars impressive 18 year build run.This example is one of the very last R107's built, being a 1989 car. The car presents beautifully in Smoke Silver with a half chocolate brown leather and half houndstooth cloth interior. The whole car really is in exceptional condition, our vendor purchased it from his business partner, after spending a long time looking for the right SL. This example has no fewer than 30 service stamps, being taken to Mercedes-Benz main agents until 2002 at 75,000 miles, with a further 11 services carried out by a mixture of local garages and Mercedes-Benz specialists since. The car comes to the sale fresh from a service by Mercedes-Benz.The R107 generation SL has gathered some immense interest in the past few years, and these late 300 models offer possibly the best all round package. The 300 engine offers plenty of power and torque for cruising, without the added expense to be expected from its bigger 500 V8 sibling. Our vendor reports this car is an absolute delight to drive, Mercedes of this era were renowned for their built quality and over-engineered approach, meaning well kept examples can really stand the tests of time.
Lot 206
1971 MG B Roadster Transmission: manualMileage:13380The MGB is a classic British sports car manufactured in numbers to cater for the insatiable appetite for open top motoring in the 1960s and 1970s. Built with rugged mechanics and powered by the un-burstable, all-iron BMC B-Series, 1800cc engine, the MGB was of lightweight monocoque construction and incorporated crumple zones designed to protect the occupants.Originally registered 1st April 1971, this well-presented example is resplendent in red coachwork over a cognac leather interior with a superb walnut dashboard. Treated to an extensive body-off restoration some years ago which included repair and restoration of the chassis, a full respray to the bodywork, an extensive engine rebuild and a new interior. Various other works were also completed which included many mechanical parts being renewed and restored as well as new chrome wire wheels being fitted. A mohair hood is also fitted to this MGB which is in very good condition, important for the UK summer months! The general condition of this MG is very good, the coachwork and brightwork are all in very good condition only showing a few minor age-related blemishes, as to the interior and engine bay. Reported by the vendor to run and drive very well indeed, this MG fires up when asked and has recently completed a trip from the Cotswolds to our storage facility in Iver, with no issues to report.Offered with a sizeable history file including many invoices detailing the restoration, various sundry bills and invoices, old tax discs and MoT test certificates, and its current V5C registration document. MGs are well supported by several specialists resulting in a motor car that is, not only straight forward to maintain but also great fun to drive. If you are looking for a well sorted example this is surely top of the list.
Lot 119
1982 Lancia Montecarlo Transmission: manualMileage:52225The Lancia Beta Montecarlo is a mid-engined sports car which was produced from 1975 through to 1982. Cars from 1975 to 1978 were known as a Lancia Beta Montecarlo and the latter cars produced from 1979 to 1982, were simply known as Lancia Montecarlo. Both series were offered in coupé and spider versions and were constructed by Pininfarina. The total production amounted to 3,835 first series Beta Montecarlo's and 1,940 second series, of which only 172 cars were right hand drive coupés.This particular example presents in fantastic, largely original condition. The vendor had the aim to sympathetically refresh the car, retaining as much of the original paint as possible. The car had some repairs to the sills and outer door skins earlier in its life but on the whole, our vendor was so impressed with the condition of the car when he saw it, he decided to buy it. The interior also presents in fantastic condition, showing it has clearly been in the hands of enthusiasts for its whole 41 years and 52,000 miles.Our vendor has spent a reasonable amount of money on the car whilst in his ownership, the largest invoice coming from Freelance Motors in Devon in 2018. The work carried out came to a total cost of £1,945.48, for work consisting of a Guy Croft racing exhaust, which gives a lovely tone without being too shouty. Other work included a wheel alignment, big end shells, sump replacement, front and rear springs, suspension poly-bushing, front shock absorber, a thorough service and various gaskets and mountings. The car has also been cared for by Darren Cooksey, who is hugely knowledgeable on Lancia Montecarlo's. He did a timing belt change, fuel pump change and recent carburettor rebuild, along with various other small jobs. This Montecarlo is an excellent example, which our vendor has enjoyed using regularly in the summer months and sometimes even uses it to commute to work. He reports the car is always a joy to drive.
Lot 193
1986 Porsche 911 Targa 3.2 Transmission: manualMileage:73548The Porsche 911 is a luxury two-door sports coupé with a distinctive design, rear engine and independent rear suspension; an evolution of the swing axle on the Porsche 356. It has undergone continuous development although the basic concept has remained virtually unchanged. Throughout its lifetime, the 911 has been modified by private teams and by the factory itself for racing, rallying and other forms of automotive competition. It is among the most successful competition cars ever. In the mid-1970s, normally aspirated 911 Carrera RSRs won major world championship sports car races such as Targa Florio, Daytona, Sebring and Nürburgring, even against prototypes. The 911 derived 935 Turbo also won the coveted 24 Hours Le Mans in 1979. At the 1999 international poll for the award of Car of the Century, the 911 came fifth. It is one of two in the top five that has remained continuously in production (the original Beetle remained in production until 2003) and was until 1998, the most successful surviving application of the air cooled, horizontally opposed rear-engine layout.This delightfully handsome Porsche 911 Targa was originally registered on 1st August 1986. The white coachwork on this galvanised body 911 is exquisite with excellent panel gaps and a splendid paint finish. The blue leather trim appears to be original and has a delightful patina. The 3164cc six-cylinder fuel injected engine runs extremely well, this is mated to a five-speed manual gearbox and we are advised this Porsche drives with no known faults. Complemented by a rear whale fin and colour co-ordinated wheels, this really is an eye-catching car. Over a three-year period and with the help of a retired mechanic, the previous owner recommissioned this Porsche with a 'no expense spared' attitude and with great attention to detail. The net result is a Porsche 911 Targa of the highest quality. The current owner purchased this car in July 2018 and has kept it to the same high standard having it regularly service and maintained by Brookspeed Porsche, Eastleigh, Hampshire with the last service being carried out in May of this year. The car is supplied with a V5C registration document, a current MoT test certificate valid until 9th April 2024 and a file containing invoices and old MoT's after 2014. Demand for these air-cooled Porsches remains strong with examples as good as this hard to come by.
Lot 104
2005 Mercedes-Benz C55 AMG Transmission: automaticMileage:44025The C55 signified a return to AMG's V8 roots, after barely a three-year flirtation with a supercharged V6. AMG found 8,100 homes for the C32, but the AMG engineers seemed much happier now that there was a serious, big-capacity, naturally aspirated 5.4 litre V8 powering the meatiest C-Class and the badge is there to, well, to ensure the owners don't forget. It is not the performance, AMG claimed 5.2 seconds to 62mph for both C55 and C32, or even the transformation to a deep, wonderfully muscular exhaust note, but the makeover in the dynamics that stood the new sports saloon apart. The C55 marked a small, but perceptible, shift towards a sharper, more sporting focus, that set it closer to the M3 than any previous AMG hot rod C-Class.This example of this brute of a car is presented in silver with a black leather interior and comes with electric heated front seats, sunroof, air conditioning with climate control. Also accompanying the car is its original service book showing frequent servicing at almost yearly intervals from 31st June 2005 to October 2019. The car has also benefitted recently from a new radiator, new spark plugs, a brake fluid change and a change of engine and gearbox oil. With the values of the earlier Cosworth-inspired super sports Mercedes rocketing well into six figures, this pure-blood AMG super saloon in the lightweight C-Class bodyshell is already a collectible Mercedes AMG hot-rod, with blistering performance and that oh-so-inspiring and famous AMG V8 exhaust note.
Lot 250
2001 Mercedes-Benz SL320 Transmission: automaticMileage:18970Unveiled at the March 1989 Geneva Motor Show, the new Mercedes-Benz R129 Series SL range was beautifully engineered. Based around a two-door monocoque bodyshell, its sophisticated, all-round independent suspension was augmented by a host of active and passive safety features including electronic stability control, ventilated ABS disc brakes, adaptive-damping shock absorbers, front airbags and an integral rollover bar that deployed in less than a third of a second if the car ever sensed an impending flip. Suitably cosseting, the convertible's impeccably built cabin included a fully automated power hood and featured such advancements as memory seats, electric windows/mirrors and an adjustable steering column. Yet lurking beneath all the luxury and refinement was a performance orientated sports car.This superb example is presented in maroon with cream leather interior, both of which are in excellent condition. It comes with a very high specification including the factory hardtop. Offered in fantastic condition throughout the paintwork, interior and engine bay are all in fine fettle and we are told by the vendor that the car is a joy to drive. This lovely SL320 comes with its relevant booklets including the service book, many invoices for various services, maintenance bills, old MoT test certificates and the V5C registration document. A significant amount of money has been spent on this example during its life and as such it is ready to be enjoyed by its new owner. In our opinion, the colour combination of this particular Mercedes-Benz is one of the most desirable and in this condition, with just 18,970 miles on the odometer it must make it one of the best available.
Lot 262
2004 Aston Martin DB9 Transmission: automaticMileage:74028The sleek superformed aluminium body of the DB9 was initially designed by Ian Callum but had also been significantly influenced by the next director of AM design, Hendrik Fisker. It was powered by a third generation version of the now familiar 6.0 litre, V12 and has a top speed of 186mph. The DB9 was the first of what was to become a long line of production Aston Martins to use VH architecture; using superformed parts in the chassis and footwell as well as the body panels. The individual die-cast, extruded or stamped aluminium elements of the VH platform are bonded with strong adhesives and self-piercing rivets to make a lightweight but stiff backbone. The DB9 body shell weighed 25% less than that of the DB7 but has double its torsional rigidity. This process also allowed Aston Martin to retain high levels of engineering accuracy in producing a car at a higher volume, ensuring chassis performance to match the engine power. Aston Martins have always made the interior of their cars to be very special places. The fine detail of finishing is typified by the starter button made of glass and sand etched with the Aston Martin wings logo.This example is presented in dark metallic blue with cream leather interior, which is arguably the best colour combination. It comes with a service record from 2004 to 2017 where it shows servicing from various Aston Martin specialists. The present owner has had the car professionally stored whiles in his ownership and hardly driven it hence his decision to sell. These cars are a joy to drive, emitting a very throaty staccato sound from the characterful V12 engine, whether cruising on a wave of torque or wringing it out in fast road driving. This fabulous sports car can now be purchased at a fraction of its original sale price when new and still looks stunning.
Lot 231
2000 Aston Martin DB7 Vantage Volante Transmission: automaticMileage:24238Introduced in 1993 to the public, the handsome new DB7 was styled by Ian Callum, its lines were evocative of earlier Aston Martin models and elements of the DB4/5/6 could be seen in its design. Arguably one of the most attractive looking cars ever produced by Aston Martin, the DB7 was well received and attracted new customers worldwide with its traditional layout of the curvaceous two-door coupé body. At the Geneva Motor Show in 1999, Aston Martin introduced the six litre Cosworth-designed and built V12 engine, developing 420bhp and accelerating from 0-60mph in 4.9 seconds with a top speed limited to 185mph. Ian Callum enlarged the grille, added fog lamps and restyled the valances to give the car a more aggressive look.This fabulous example is presented in light metallic blue with a blue and cream leather interior, both of which are in superb condition. The car has a good service history from 2000 to 2023 including all MoT test certificates right up until the present day, although there is a letter on file to explain a slight discrepancy to the mileage on one of the MoT test certificates which was human error at the MoT station! There is also a wind breaker and a hood cover which comes with the car. All the wood, leather and interior are superb! These are rare and highly sought-after sports cars which are drop dead gorgeous and with its V12 engine providing the power, it has the performance to match!
Lot 243
1950 Morgan 4/4 Drophead Coupé by Ellis Brothers Transmission: manualMileage:23692The Morgan Plus 4 was the Morgan Motor Company's first car with four wheels, introduced in 1936 following the end of production of the famed three wheeled motorcycle engine model. In 1950, the new Plus 4 appeared, with a 2,088cc Standard (later Triumph) engine producing 68bhp and delivering an 85mph top speed. The Plus 4 also featured a stiffer frame, improved front suspension, and Girling hydraulic brakes. Three bodystyles were offered: the two-seater, the four-seater, and the drophead coupé. Always a popular choice for sports car enthusiasts across the globe, the combination of the typically British 1930's styling with its flowing wings, modern performance and reliability have ensured the Morgan is as popular today as it ever has been.This is a rare example of this British classic with coachwork by Ellis Brothers in Newton Abbot and is believed to be one of only three built with drophead coupé bodywork by City Garage in Exeter. It is presented in red with a black interior and black hood. Showing lovely patina throughout, the car comes with a large history file and its original buff logbook. The first owner had the car for some 50 years and although this pretty sports car runs and drives, it will want re-commissioning as it has been stored for few years.
Lot 222
2003 Vauxhall VX220 Turbo Transmission: manualMileage:28877The Opel Speedster was a British built mid-engined, Targa topped, two-seater sports car sold by the German automaker Opel and introduced in July 2000. It was built in both right hand drive and left hand drive versions at the Lotus Cars plant in Hethel, Norfolk, England and it was presented at the Geneva Motor Show in March 1999. It was sold as the Vauxhall VX220 in the United Kingdom and the Daewoo Speedster in the Asian market. The car shared much in common with the Lotus Elise, although Opel claimed few parts were interchangeable. The Speedster utilised an aluminium chassis tub that weighed only 159lbs. The car also featured bodywork made entirely of glass reinforced plastic (GRP). The entire car weighed only 1,929lbs which made it considerably lighter than the similarly sized Toyota MR2. At its launch, the Speedster's all aluminium alloy 2.2 L Z22SE engine produced 147bhp, making it more powerful than the Elise when it was launched.This fabulous example was registered new on 1st February 2003 and was originally a very rare Vauxhall press car. This VX220 Turbo is presented in yellow coachwork with a black leather interior and has covered a mere 28,877 miles from new which is quite exceptional. The paintwork and interior are both in very good order and the vendor reports that it runs and drives very well indeed. Currently residing in the current vendors private collection, this Vauxhall comes with a comprehensive service history detailed in its service booklet and comes complete with its original handbooks, service bills to complement the service book, sundry invoices and maintenance bills, and the current V5C registration document. This lovely little sports car also comes with its original factory removable hard and soft Targa top. This must be one of the lowest mileage examples of this marque offered on the market today. Previously featured on the cover of Classic and Sports Car Magazine, this wonderful sports car would still give most modern sports cars a run for their money on the open road!
Lot 212
1973 Citroën SM 3.0 Manual Transmission: manualMileage:99392In 1961, Citroën began work on 'Project S', a sports variant of the revolutionary Citroën DS. As was customary for the firm, many running concept vehicles were developed, increasingly complex and upmarket from the DS. Citroën purchased Maserati in 1968 with the intention of harnessing Maserati's high-performance V6 engine technology to produce a true Gran Turismo car combining the sophisticated Citroën suspension. The result was the Citroën SM, first shown at the Geneva Motor Show in March 1970 and which went on sale in France in September of that year. Factory produced cars were all left hand drive, although right hand conversions were available in the UK and Australia. The origin of the model name 'SM' is not completely clear. The 'S' may derive from the Project 'S' designation and the 'M' perhaps refers to Maserati, hence SM is often assumed to stand for 'Systeme Maserati' or 'Sports Maserati'.Exported new in 1973 to the United States of America, this SM was believed to have been owned by a French diplomat. This would explain the incredibly rare specification of it being a 3.0 litre car, but with a manual transmission. Most 3.0 litre cars were supplied with the automatic gearbox rather than the manual and most of the total production were supplied with the smaller 2.7 litre motor, (thanks to the French 'puissance fiscale' taxation which made large displacement vehicles too expensive to sell in any quantity in France). The vendor acquired the car from Octane magazine Editor David Lillywhite, who had catalogued a long and often painful restoration of the car to its now beautiful state in the magazine. Included in the car's history file along with import documentation, is a full print out of all the articles mapping David Lillywhite's restoration journey. It appears he went through every element of the car and had the car resprayed to match the restoration, as well as replacing the American specification front light clusters to the prettier Perspex covered European units. The vendor reports the car to run and drive very well and is now selling only as part of a downsizing of his considerable collection.Supplied with a V5C registration document along with import papers, original owner's manual and a record of the Octane magazine restoration articles. You would be hard pushed to find another manual 3.0 litre SM, let alone one which has had such love and car lavished upon it as well as having the restoration process followed by the leading classic car magazine.
Lot 232
2004 MG X-Power SV Transmission: manualMileage:5313MG's striking SV was designed by Peter Stevens, Royal College of Art Designer who had been responsible for McLaren's F1 and was based on the platform of the Qvale Mangusta. Prior to the demise of MG Rover, a team has been working on a project to return the company to the forefront of motorsport competition via sports and touring racing which included production of high-performance road cars. The X-Power SV was planned as the ultimate in the company's street legal offerings. Making its debut at the 2002 UK Motor Show the SV boasted a mouth-watering specification including a Ford 4.6 litre V8 power plant with five-speed gearbox and limited slip differential. The design's Italian-built steel box frame chassis (clothed in carbon fibre) was extremely rigid - as it needed to be in order to cope with some 320bhp on tap. The 0-60mph dash could be achieved in under 5.5 seconds whilst top speed was quoted at 165mph.Car number 144 was sold new in May 2004 to Gordon Sturdy who specified his SV as a manual gearbox car painted in Garnet Red Supertallic. Believed to be the only one painted in this shade of red, (most red cars being painted in Solar red), it was specified with 'Oyster' leather and Alcantara interior, automatic climate control, CD Tuner, Infinity speakers, large rear spoiler and track day free flowing exhaust. The supplied original bill of sale shows Mr. Sturdy paid £46,000 for the car and then an additional £870 to have the SV seat upgrade. The car's history file shows receipts for maintenance work carried out by Maidstone Sports Cars, as well as the original owner's handbook, parts list CD, MG X-Power SV book by David Knowles and promotional DVD and book. Whilst officially the second owner, Mr. Stury was for all intents and purpose the first, as the car was first registered to MG Sport and Racing Ltd as a demonstrator. It must have had light use though, as even now the car has only covered 5,313 miles. Purchased by our vendor in 2021, the car formed part of a large eclectic collection of cars and has had only light use. Reported by him to run and drive incredibly well, the car is now only for sale to free up some money and space for an incoming project.Supplied with a V5C registration document, original purchase invoice, book pack, maintenance and service handbooks, many MoT test certificates and invoices. This rare and unique car, believed to be the only in this colour is bound to wow at any car meeting or show, with performance to match its wild styling.Interested parties should note that contrary to the catalogue description, this MG SV X-Power is not the only car painted in Garnet Red, but in fact one of only two cars painted by the factory in the colour.
Lot 257
1964 Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint GT Transmission: manualMileage:68444The Alfa Romeo Giulia (105) Sprint GT was designed by Bertone's Giorgetto Giugiaro. The car was launched in September 1963 at the newly opened Arese plant and displayed later that month at the Frankfurt Motor Show. The overall styling of the Giulia was kept very simple however, the Giulia had a very distinctive Scalino 'step front' design with the bonnet sitting approximately 1/4 inch above the nose of the car. Alfa Romeo was one of the first manufacturers to put a powerful engine in a lightweight car for mainstream production, making it a forerunner to today's performance saloons. The Giulia was powered by Alfa Romeo's twin cam, all-aluminium, four cylinder 1,570cc engine mated to a five-speed gearbox. This punchy power plant ensured the car's performance was better than many sports cars of the era. Alfa Romeo took 'Touring Car' racing by storm winning the European Touring Car Championship in 1966, 1967 and 1968.This right hand drive, 1964 Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint GT was supplied new in the UK. At some time it was exported to Australia. The current owner purchased the car there and returned it to the UK in June 2016. After using it sparingly for a while it was put into storage where it has remained until recently. We are informed that the car is matching numbers, has a sound floor pan and is running and drivable. This is a restoration project with a lot of potential for being put back on the road or rebuilt for racing and use on the track. Finished in blue with tan and stripped material interior it is supplied with a V5C registration document and a number of spare parts including an original grille, a new bumper still in its protective wrapping and other parts. These wonderful classic Alfa Romeos are highly sought-after and a restoration project such as this is so rare to find, particularly as the car appears to be complete.
Lot 150
1960 Daimler SP250 Dart 'B' Specification Transmission: automaticMileage:44800The controversially styled Daimler SP250 Dart was introduced at the New York Motor Show in 1959 and had its European debut at the 1959 Earls Court Motor Show; the Dart name was soon dropped after the threat of legal action from Chrysler who had a car of that name within their Dodge division. Thereafter, this new sports car was known as the Daimler SP250. Power was provided by the 2.5 litre, Edward Turner designed, V8 that soon became revered for the smoothness in its power delivery with 140bhp on tap. Independent double wishbone front suspension at the front and half elliptical springs at the rear with a live rear axle kept the car on the road with stopping power supplied by hydraulic disc brakes on all four corners. The coachwork was constructed with glass reinforced plastic providing a tough, strong and lightweight shape that enhanced performance with exciting and non-traditional looks. The 120mph plus capability was recognised by the police and they were soon being used as high-speed chase cars.This particular example presents beautifully in ivory over a red interior and has been upgraded to full B specification. The B specification offered a vast improvement over the original cars, much improving the chassis flex of earlier cars by adding extra outriggers and extra chassis strengthening. This car has also been fitted with some fantastic upgrades to improve the driving experience, such as rack and pinion steering which vastly improves steering directness and feel. The gearbox has also been fitted with an overdrive, to improve the experience when cruising at motorway speeds. There is also evidence of an engine rebuild by Russ Carpenter and various invoices dating back to the 1980's and some invoices detailing some restoration work in and around 2010. The car has also been fitted with an aluminium radiator, to aide cooling, and telescopic rear dampers. This is an excellent example which has clearly been cherished by enthusiasts and has been improved tastefully with driving in mind. Our vendor reports the car drives exceedingly well. Interested parties should note that this car is now offered with an MoT test certificate valid until 13th July 2024.
Lot 149
2002 Alfa Romeo 156 3.2 V6 24V GTA Transmission: manualMileage:15000Launched at the Frankfurt Motor Show in 2001, the Alfa Romeo 156 GTA is certainly the spiritual successor to the original GTA sold throughout the 1960s. In fact, this sports saloon is a gorgeous model designed by Centro Stile in collaboration with Stola and was hand assembled on its own production line.Today, most examples on the road surely have plenty of miles on the clock, used as family sportscars, alternatives to the BMW sports saloons of the time. This example however, first registered in 2002, had spent much of its life dry stored in a Ferrari collector's garage before being acquired by the current vendor and residing in his private collection. It has covered circa 15,000 miles from new and has been thoroughly well cared for over the years. Presented in astonishing condition, it also runs very well, and everything onboard reportedly works as it should.First registered in November 2002 and bought by the previous owner in 2004 with 8,000 miles on the clock, this Alfa was acquired by our vendor in 2022. Kept in dry storage since 2004 it has covered around 500 miles per year. Evidently in excellent condition inside there is seemingly little to no wear throughout the cabin which benefits from the full Sport Pack option fitted from the factory. Black leather upholstery adorns the seats and door cards, which are in excellent shape. We are also informed that all electronic features aboard work as they should, from the electric windows to the mirrors and the Bose Hi-Fi system.In excellent condition throughout, this Alfa is presented in its suitably Italian metallic red coachwork complemented by the Quadrifoglio and Biscione sitting proudly on the front wings and the engine bay, home to the largest of the Busso engines, is in immaculate order.Also present is the spare tyre, complete with a set of tools and a history file which includes the service booklet which has frequent stamps, the original owner's handbook, and the current V5C registration document. Despite not covering many miles and spending the majority of its life in dry storage, this example has received frequent services and MoT test certificates. Most recently, with 14,500 miles on the clock, the cambelts, water pump and radiator were all replaced. The car also has relatively new brake discs and pads. In near-immaculate condition, this Alfa Romeo 156 GTA is almost a new car. It has been dry stored since 2004 and has covered very few miles in that time. With a Busso engine ready to roar and a short-throw six-speed manual transmission, it is surely set to make its new owner very happy.
Lot 115
1991 Alfa Romeo Spider S4 Transmission: automaticMileage:99018The Spider designation for the open top sports cars originates from the word, speeder, and a two-person open horse carriage. The Alfa Romeo 105/115 Series Spider was produced from 1966 to 1993, remaining in production for almost three decades with only minor aesthetic and mechanical changes. Widely regarded as a design classic, this fourth series version of production came with further mechanical and cosmetic changes. Mechanical changes saw the introduction of the Bosch Motronic electronic fuel injection with an electric fan and cosmetically, losing its front under bumper spoiler and the rear boot spoiler picking up 164-style rear lights stretching across the width of the car together with colour co-ordinated plastic bumpers.This very good left hand drive, 1991 Series 4, Alfa Romeo Spider was imported from Japan in 2016 and purchased by the current owner a couple of months later. While in his ownership he acquired a factory hardtop, replaced the automatic gearbox with a reconditioned Alfa Romeo manual gearbox, fitted a set of Zandar alloy wheels and in 2018 he had the car repainted. The car has just been serviced and MoT'd. Finished in black with the original beige interior, this Alfa Romeo Spider is supplied with V5C registration document, an MoT test certificate which expires in April 2024 and a file containing invoices since being imported in 2016.

1985 Mercedes-Benz 380SL Transmission: automaticMileage:41464The Mercedes-Benz SL range of models have been in production for over sixty years metamorphosing from the Le Mans winning W194 of 1952 to the technologically advanced, aluminium bodied supercars we find today at Mercedes-Benz World. One thing however, has not changed over the years “ its fundamental character and identity as an upmarket well-built sports car. You could say the fabulous SL AMG model of today with its gullwing doors is the spiritual successor of the 1956 W121 class Gullwing. Backed by its racing pedigree the SL's glamorous reputation was further enhanced by its appearance on TV when it was rare to see an episode of Dallas or Dynasty in the 1980's without the SL making an appearance! These third-generation SL's, the R107, looked 'the part' in all their guises “ the soft top up or down or with the Pagoda hardtop in place. The simple to use, almost genius soft top mechanism when folded down out of sight under a panel gives the car its beautifully sleek, uncluttered appearance. With the hardtop in place you could be forgiven for thinking you were in a fixed head coupé. No less than eight different engine options were available ranging from the straight-six 2.8 litre to a mighty 5.6 litre V8. Although a manual gearbox was available, it is very rare and most examples are fitted with an automatic gearbox which best suits the car's designation as a grand tourer.Originally registered on 6th June 1985 this R107 Mercedes is fitted with the smooth and responsive 3.8 litre V8 Engine. It is a superb example that presents in excellent condition all round. The Pagent Red coachwork is in excellent order as is the cream leather trim. Stylish Mexican hat alloy wheels complement this delightful colour combination. Supplied with the original service books, this has clearly been a very well cared for Mercedes-Benz. Supplied with a V5C registration document and a current MoT test certificate valid until 11th April 2024, together with the original toolkit and a factory hardtop. We are advised this R107 drives as good as it looks, it is rare to see them this good.

1954 Jaguar XK120 SE Roadster Transmission: manualMileage:58682The Jaguar XK120 was manufactured between 1948 and 1954; Jaguar's first sports car since the SS100, which ceased production in 1940. The XK120 was launched in roadster form at the 1948 London Motor Show as a show car for the new Jaguar XK engine. It caused a sensation thus persuading Jaguar founder and design boss William Lyons to put the car into production. The '120' in its name referred to its 120mph top speed which made the XK120 the world's fastest standard production car at the time of its launch. It was available in two open versions; first as the roadster then also as a drophead coupé from 1953 and also as a closed, or 'fixedhead' coupé from 1951. With an alloy cylinder head and twin side-draft SU carburettors, the double overhead-cam 3.4 litre straight-six XK engine was comparatively advanced for mass-produced units of its time. This same basic design of the XK engine, later modified into 3.8 litre and 4.2 litre versions, survived late into the 1980s.This left hand drive Jaguar was originally sent to California from new and repatriated to the UK in 1964. Upon its return, this XK120 SE was put into storage for many years. A renovation was carried out paying great attention to keeping the car as original as possible. It was repainted in the original colour scheme and although the seats have been changed to more comfortable bucket type seats, the originals are included with the car, although they will need restoring. The engine was rebuilt at 55,548 miles and as this is an SE specification vehicle it has a C-Type cylinder head offering a better performance. A new Mohair hood comes with the car, along with newly refurbished sidescreens. The fastidious and knowledgeable vendor has owned this matching numbers XK120 since January 2014 and has enjoyed the car immensely. It has been thoroughly maintained, largely by himself and again the focus was always using original parts wherever possible, subject to availability. Presenting in good order throughout, this is a very nice genuine and useable example. Supplied with a V5C registration document, a Jaguar Heritage Certificate, a detailed history of the renovation and a good history folder. This 67 year old Jaguar has only had three previous keepers and is ready to be used and enjoyed by a new owner as much as it has been by its current owners.

1973 Porsche 911 Targa Transmission: manualMileage:The original Porsche 911 was introduced in autumn 1963 and manufactured until 1989. It was succeeded by a modified version, internally referred to as Porsche 964, but still sold as Porsche 911, as are current models. Mechanically, the 911 was notable for being rear engine and air-cooled and, from its inception, the 911 was modified both by private teams and the factory itself for racing, rallying and other types of competition. The original 911 series is often cited as the most successful competition car ever, especially when its variations are included; namely the powerful 911 derived 935 which won the 24 Hours Le Mans and other major sports car races outright against prototypes. Of all the derivatives and years in which the 911 was produced the 1973 Targa was perhaps one of the most sought-after, the '73 had the narrower bumpers which are especially popular and deemed more attractive on the early 911 with a style that modern 'restomod' or backdated styles such as Singer replicate allowing top down motoring with the glass back window which the model of course didn't start out with.First registered in August 1973, this 2.4 litre F-Series 911 Targa was delivered to the UK from new and has been comprehensively restored and transformed by Rindt Vehicle Design. In single ownership between 1985 and 2020, as detailed in the history file. Finished in Irish Green, full details of the bodywork and mechanical attention carried out include complete strip, prep and bare-metal repaint in Irish Green, carried out to the highest standards, new nearside floor pan and nearside 'kidney bowl', full interior strip and re-finish in Tartan, new dash trim, new inner and outer sill protectors, fresh chrome bumper mouldings, new front and rear windscreen rubbers, sun visors, new horns and fitment of new Targa roof seals. The engine was removed from the vehicle, stripped, serviced and fitted with new upper and lower cam covers, new oil pipes where required and repairs to the wiring loom undertaken. This is now a beautifully restored example of a period air-cooled Porsche that attracts attention wherever it goes, viewing is highly recommended.

1968 Sunbeam Alpine Series V Transmission: manualMileage:72500The Sunbeam Alpine was launched in 1953 as the first vehicle from Sunbeam-Talbot to bear the Sunbeam name alone, since the 1935 takeover of Sunbeam and Talbot by the Rootes Group. Ken Howes and Jeff Crompton were tasked with doing a complete redesign of the Alpine in 1956 with the goal of producing a dedicated sports car aimed principally at the US market. The Series V Alpine was produced from 1965 through to 1968, the final version having a new five-bearing, 1725cc engine with twin Zenith-Stromberg carburettors producing 93bhp.This iconic British sports car is presented in red with a grey hood and a black interior. It is powered by the lively 1725 four cylinder engine mated to a four-speed gearbox. The present owner, who has owned it since 2001, has just returned from a 600-mile round trip holiday in the UK and they confirmed that the car drove without a fault. It comes with, a workshop manual, Rootes parts list and a good history file with many invoices including old MoT test certificates dating back to 1977 (and it has new MoT test certificate which expires in June 2024 with no advisories), which does verify the present mileage of 72,500 as being correct.

2005 MG ZT Estate Transmission: manualMileage:63444In 2001, three years after the launch of the Rover 75, and less than a year after the demerger of MG Rover from BMW, the MG ZT and MG ZT-T were launched. During the cars' development, the models were codenamed X10 and X11, for the saloon and estate versions, respectively. The basic shape and styling of the MG ZT remained the same as for the Rover 75 but with changes to the front bumper, now with an integrated grille, and detail alterations including colour coding of the chromed waistline, a new boot lid plinth, and different alloy wheels and tyres sizes. During the first few months of 2004, MG Rover facelifted the design of the ZT and ZT-T to a less retro look, at the same time as the Rover 75 received a facelift. This didn't feature much in the way of mechanical differences to the ZT, most changes were merely aesthetic. The main changes to the car included the replacement of the twin headlamps, with a new, clear single headlamp unit. Between 2003 and 2006 the top of the ZT range, and the rarest, was rear wheel drive and powered by the Ford 4601cc V8 engine giving 300bhp, 0-60mph in 6.3 seconds and a top speed of 155mph.This rare MG ZT is best described as a 'wolf in sheep's clothing'. A relatively unassuming vehicle from the outside, with the only visible feature being the large bore exhausts. However, start the engine and suddenly you become aware of the Ford Mustang 4.6 litre V8 under the bonnet. This is mated to a five-speed manual gearbox making this a true drivers car and one to really enjoy on the open road. Performance is put at 260bhp and 407NM of torque. The interior is trimmed in black leatherette and cloth seats with electric windows, electric mirrors and digital climate control with air conditioning. Showing just 63,444 miles on the odometer, the previous owner fitted a bespoke (and very expensive) stainless steel exhaust system with sports cats and central silencer box, coupled to an OE back-box, helping unleash a little more sound of the American dream. We are advised there is a bearing noise from the rear axle. Supplied with a V5C registration document and a current MoT test certificate valid until October 2023, together with the original book pack and a collection of invoices. This stylish MG estate is both a capable load carrier and a truly exciting car to drive. These were built in relatively small numbers, it is thought less than 200 were manufactured, thus this could well prove to be a fine investment.Guide £6,000-£9,000

2004 Mercedes-Benz SL500 Transmission: automaticMileage:67338The Mercedes-Benz R129 models were produced from 1989 through to 2001 and were sold under the SL Class model names. The R129 replaced the R107 SL Class in 1989 and was subsequently replaced by the R230 in 2001. The R129 was based on the shortened floorpan of the Mercedes-Benz W124 saloon and featured many innovative details for the time. The R129 came to public attention in 1991 when Diana, Princess of Wales, sold her Jaguar XJS to lease a J-registration, metallic red 500 SL, becoming the first member of the royal family to use a foreign car. This controversy sparked a media storm as it was questioned whether a member of British royalty should drive foreign cars. The fifth generation of the legendary SL series of two-door convertible sports cars made by Mercedes-Benz was known as the R230. It featured a fully retractable hardtop that was marketed as the Vario Roof; a first for the SL Class although it had been available on the smaller SLK model since 1997.Originally registered on 8th June 2004, this Mercedes-Benz presents very well. With the modest mileage of 67,338 the 4966cc engine is barely run in. Finished in silver with a black leather interior, this SL500 is supplied with a V5C registration document and a current MoT test certificate valid until 16th February 2024. The SL500 is a well-appointed Mercedes with air conditioning, electric windows, cruise control and heated seats all as standard equipment. In addition to the above these great looking cars offer flexibility with a retractable hardtop and at the push of a button, convertible motoring.

1964 Mercedes-Benz 230 SL Transmission: manualMileage:74600The 1964 Mercedes-Benz 230 SL, also known as the 'Pagoda', is a classic luxury sports car that epitomises elegance and performance. With its sleek and timeless design, it captivates car enthusiasts even today. Powered by a 2.3 litre inline-six engine, it delivers a smooth driving experience and impressive acceleration. The 230 SL features a unique, detachable hardtop resembling a pagoda roof, which adds to its iconic appeal. Its luxurious interior boasts comfortable leather seats, modern amenities for its time, and excellent craftsmanship. The 1964 Mercedes-Benz 230 SL represents a perfect blend of style, power, and sophistication, making it a coveted collector's item.This stunning example was supplied by franchised dealer Carols of Wolverhampton on 1st July 1964. The car changed hands in 1973 and was used until 1978 when it was placed in long term storage. It re-emerged in 2017 and has since undergone a comprehensive list of work. These works have been undertaken by two retired Carols of Wolverhampton mechanics who between them have an impressive 100 years of Mercedes experience. The list of items attended to include an overhaul of the brake calipers, servo, master cylinder, clutch master cylinder and slave cylinder. All brake hoses were replaced, as was the propshaft centre bearing mounting. The gearbox was overhauled and benefits from new bearings and fresh transmission oil. The original Bosch electric fuel pump was refurbished as was the entire fuel system including the fitting of new fuel pipes. The radiator has received an uprated core and all new hoses. A new head gasket was fitted and all engine gaskets have been replaced. The list of work continues and includes reconditioning the starter motor and injector pump. The engine bolts and engine mountings, distributor cap, all plug leads and plug caps have all been replaced. Evidence of further works is available in the history file for this car and includes sympathetic refurbishment of the interior, a respray and the fitting of a new mohair hood. Although, often said this car really is ready to be enjoyed by a new custodian.

1987 Porsche 911 Super Sports Transmission: manualMileage:107060Introduced in 1984, the Porsche 911 Carrera 3.2 was the last incarnation of the 'pure' 911 and was a replacement for the SC model, made between 1978 and 1983. The engine capacity was increased to 3.2 litres, Bosch fuel injection was fitted, and power was up to 231bhp, at least for the European market. With a lack of driver aids such as ABS and power steering, the Carrera 3.2 is said to offer one of the purest 911 driving experiences. Rarest of them all is the 'Turbo look' widebody, known as the 'Super Sport' in the UK. The lucky few buyers would have had to place their order through the 'Sonderwusch' (special wishes) programme and stump up in excess of £10,000 over the base price.Presented in Guards Red with a black leather trim and boasting the Super Sport code '491', this widebody, turbo wing example had been owned by its vendor since 2005. The original service booklet shows a comprehensive service history with main dealer and specialists until 2002 and 81,132 miles, since this date it has been cared for both by vendor and a local mechanic who was a Porsche enthusiast. Countless MoT test certificates show that since 2002 the mileage has year on year been reducing with the last few years trips restricted to 150-200 miles only, the car has however always remained garaged in this time. A car that boasts just six former keepers, one being husband and wife, this example will also receive a new MoT test certificate prior to the sale and represents one of the most desirable 80's Porsche's money can buy. The History file includes the full book pack, V5C registration document, MoT test certificates and valuations from JZM Porsche coupled to a number of invoices and technical specifications. This example with the G50 gearbox and 3.2 litre flat-six engine has to be seen to be appreciated and will be very popular given the upswell in 80's 911 values.

1997 Chevrolet Corvette C5 Targa Transmission: automaticMileage:66500The C5 Corvette - only the fifth incarnation of America's most popular sports car since its introduction in 1953 - was launched to rave reviews in 1997 and featured an all-new body that was both modern and much stronger than before. With a rear-mounted transaxle for the first time, the Corvette had near perfect 50:50 weight distribution and more interior space as well. The new alloy block LS1 V8, an engine Australian's have grown to love over the years, used state-of-the-art technology with a cast-alloy head and developed a massive 345bhp at 5600rpm along with 350lb/ft of torque. There was a choice of two transmissions, including GM's own electronically controlled four-speed manual or the Borg-Warner six-speed manual with a Getrag limited-slip diff. An Electronic Throttle Control system enabled a limitless range of throttle progression. The shapely and more aero coupé body featured a removable hardtop while the new twin-pod instrument panel recalled the Stingrays of the Sixties in design. Despite being larger than the previous C4 Vette, Chevrolet's engineers actually managed to shed weight through the clever use of lightweight materials and more compact LS1 engine, performance improved markedly as a result. The quarter-mile was dispatched in 13.28 seconds and 0-100km/h took just five seconds, making this one of the fastest cars on the road in 1997. The C5 Corvette was, arguably for the first time ever, a world class sports car genuinely capable of matching the best European cars on every level. Factory-backed C5-R racers took on the Porsches in major endurance races from 1999, scoring some significant wins. Today, the C5 offers unrivalled value for money in terms of looks, performance and reliability.This superb example is presented in silver with a black leather interior. It comes with electric windows, electric seats, suede headlining, cruise control and a factory fitted Bose entertainment system with CD player. The present owner imported this Corvette in March 2022 and then set about converting the headlights to comply with UK regulation, powder coated the wheels and fitted an aftermarket Bassani exhaust system and a KNN induction air filter. Its four-speed automatic gearbox is mated to a LS1 5.7 litre Chevrolet V8 providing excellent performance. The car comes with various handbooks and Corvette wallet, Carfax information sheet which verifies its mileage, two sets of keys and a new MoT test certificate. This is a great American muscle car presented in good condition at a reasonable price.

1965 David Brown Tractor Transmission: manualMileage:57851Probably better known for his ownership of Aston Martin from 1947 to 1972, David Brown become M.D. of the family business, David Brown Gear Company Ltd in 1931. He turned to tractor manufacturing in 1936 in collaboration with Harry Ferguson, manufacturing the Ferguson-Brown tractor in West Yorkshire. The company broke new ground which others were only to follow later, but being a pioneering company ultimately led to its downfall. The Ferguson-Brown had many innovative features, including the use of cast alloy for many components which was light but prone to damage. David Brown Ltd became one of the largest manufacturers of tractors, however the owner's continued subsidisation of Aston Martin was unsustainable, and the sports car maker was sold in 1972. The tractor division was purchased by Tenneco International and re-badged the product as 'Case'.Manufactured in 1965, this tractor is thought to have spent its early life working on farms up until the early 90's. This tractor has been restored to a good standard and we are led to believe the work was undertaken in the early 2000's by its then owner, since the restoration the tractor has been used sparingly and used more as a working ornament than as an agricultural tractor hence its colourway. Boasting a new battery, the three-cylinder diesel engine started on the button during our visit, this tractor is one not to be missed and is ready to be used.Estimate £3,000-£7,000

2002 DAX Tojeiro Transmission: manualMileage:14000The hugely charismatic DAX Cobra has remained the undisputed market leader for more than 25 years and has steadily established itself as a much sought after classic sports car in its own right. The car's enduring popularity owes much to DAX's policy of continual product improvement and painstaking attention to detail. A number of engine choices have been used from the small-block Chevrolet V8 to other popular engines including units from the Ford small block and all-aluminium Chevrolet LS ranges with Rover V8 and Jaguar units still proving highly popular with some people. It is no exaggeration to say that these cars amaze all who go out in them; harnessing the power with consummate ease and providing levels of grip, composure and ride comfort that simply have to be experienced to be believed. Even Jonathon Palmer was heard to say, 'Wow, that's just staggering!' when taking the new DAX demonstrator for a few laps around Brands Hatch; great praise indeed from an ex-F1 driver!This 2002 registered Dax presents superbly in blue with cream interior. This is a real powerhouse of a Cobra sporting a 467ci under the bonnet. The growl of this V8 is addictive and the performance needs to be experience to be fully appreciated. We are advised this Dax Tojeiro drives with no known faults and given the modest estimate, is sure to attract attention on auction day. Supplied with a V5C registration document and a current MoT test certificate valid until 19th April 2024, this car is simply stunning and would put a smile on anyone's face.

1995 Renault Clio Williams 2 Transmission: manualMileage:104107The Renault Clio Williams was launched in 1993 for rally homologation requirements, as a limited edition run of 3,800 cars, all individually numbered and just 390 were destined for UK shores. The original batch was almost twice the amount needed for homologation, but the cars were such a huge success that Renault went on to build a further two iterations, much to the dismay of the buyers of the original batch, but nearly 13,000 cars were produced in total. The Williams was powered by a two-litre 16v engine, producing some 148bhp, which was enough to take the car all the way to a limited 134mph. The Williams is easily identified by its bonnet bulge and muscular wheel arches, as well as gold-painted alloy wheels. Those who have been lucky enough to drive a Williams will know that the engine is spectacular, the handling is too, and the car is a serious contender for being one of the best hot hatches ever produced.This example is a second iteration Williams 2, meaning it is presented in the original Williams shade of Sports Blue, the later Williams 3 cars were a slightly different shade. The car also has the addition of electric windows and mirrors but mechanically the car is exactly the same as the original Williams 1. This car has covered a modest 104,000 miles and presents in excellent order for its age. The values of these cars have increased significantly in the last decade and look to be showing no signs of stopping anytime soon. These cars offer useable power which can be enjoyed at all times yet still offer much lower running costs than their modern counterparts.

1989 Porsche 944 Turbo S Transmission: manualMileage:121000The Porsche 944 was built from 1982 to 1991 and was built on the same platform as the 924. It was intended to last into the 1990's but major revisions planned for a 944 S3 model were eventually rolled into the 968 instead which replaced the 944. The 944 was a successful model and was available as both a coupé and cabriolet in naturally aspirated and turbocharged forms. In mid-1985, the Porsche 944 underwent significant changes. In 1988, Porsche introduced the 944 Turbo S with a more powerful engine 250bhp 258 lb‹…ft of torque at 4,000rpm. This higher output was achieved by using a larger KKK K26-8 turbocharger housing and revised engine mapping which allowed maintaining maximum boost until 5800rpm, compared to the standard 944 Turbo. In June 1988, Car and Driver tested the 944 Turbo S (with the advantage of shorter final drive gear) and achieved a 0-60 mph acceleration time of 5.5 seconds and a quarter mile time of 13.9 seconds. Top speed was factory rated at 162mph. The post 1985 cars, turbos and S variants are considered more desirable than the earlier cars, having improved interiors, suspensions and engines, together with a limited slip differential and larger brakes.Presented in Glacier Blue with a pinstripe blue velour trim with blue leather, this late 944 turbo S is offered with the extras such as sports M030 sports pack, 'big black' brakes, limited slip differential, electric seats, electric windows, electric heated mirrors, electric sunroof, electric tailgate, upgraded sound system, headlight washers, ABS, power steering. Described as in a very good condition with no rust issues, completely solid and driving beautifully boasting just five former keepers. The car comes with a comprehensive service history and a thick folder of receipts and paperwork, as well as all the original manuals, including original option stickers, a host of MoT test certificates covering the last 30 years, two keys, original Porsche leather folder, original space saver and a set of original tools. Within the history file we can find that some of the recent works include a new head gasket,water pump, rollers, tensioners, belts, new brake lines fitted at Octane Garage. The sills were taken care of before the undercarriage and an anti-corrosion treatment, then a quality full body respray in the original rare Glacier Blue colour was undertaken at CMS Coachworks. At 120,000 miles Koni adjustable shocks were fitted and 1,000 miles later the brakes were reconditioned, turbo pressure release valve replaced as were the fuel pump, cooling fan, sunroof and driver door seals. The most recent service was in January 2023 with an MoT test certificate in January 2023 with no advisories. It is rare to find the desirable late 944 Turbo's in such condition and this UK supplied right hand drive manual sportscar is an 80's treat!

1955 Morgan Plus 4 Transmission: manualMileage:40468The 1955 Morgan Plus 4 is a classic British sports car which features a 2.1 litre, four-cylinder engine that delivers around 90 horsepower and a four-speed manual transmission. The Plus 4 was introduced in 1950 and was an evolution of the earlier Morgan 4/4 model. The Plus 4 had a longer wheelbase and a wider track than its predecessor, which made for improved handling and stability. The body of the Plus 4 was made of ash wood framing with aluminium or steel body panels, and the car had a top speed of around 95mph (153km/h). The Plus 4 was also known for its distinctive styling, which featured a rounded front end with a large grille and headlights mounted on the fenders.This very original example is presented in blue with a black interior and has a black hood.
