One of just 100 examples of the S3 Flying Spur.Initially registered to the first of three owners on the 25/03/1966One of the final S-Series-derived Bentleys before the introduction of the T1Believed to be one of just 100 S3 Continental coachbuilt by H.J. MullinerShowing an odometer reading of 46,667 miles (atoc) and last MOT'd in 2009This car has formed part of a large collection with little or no use. An element of recommissioning is to be expected to return it to the road once againIntroduced in 1955, the Bentley S-Type and equivalent Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud saloons were thoroughly modern, spacious, comfortable, quiet and powerful. In production for 10 years, they were the final series-production coach-built cars from Crewe.Building on the legendary status of the ground-breaking R-Type Continental, Bentley soon announced a two-door S-Type to be available as a stunning drophead coupé by Park Ward and a desirable and sporting 'fastback' by H.J. Mulliner.These cars were fast - thanks to aluminium coachwork, a raised compression ratio and longer final drive - and once again found favour with the super-rich of the day. It took two years before the company relented to customer demand for the pace and exclusivity of the Continental combined with the practicality of four doors. H.J. Mulliner of NW London created a superb Continental saloon, subsequently titled 'Flying Spur' after the Clan Johnstone crest of Mulliner's then managing director, Harry Talbot Johnstone. The first car was on the road in May 1957 and deliveries commenced with a pair exported to the USA just two months later. Facing competition from across the Atlantic, in August 1959 Rolls-Royce announced a new, 6,230cc V8. The light alloy unit weighed the same as the outgoing 'six but produced significantly more power, perhaps as much as 25%. The new S2 Continentals - only ever fitted with automatic gearboxes - were faster and even more refined than ever. At the same time, making use of the more compact profile of the new engine, the distinctive radiator shell was lowered and slightly raked forward.The Bentley S3, introduced in October 1962, took this process of modernisation one step further. More than simply a twin-headlamp face-lift, S3s featured a raft of other changes including another 1.5in taken off the height of the radiator, which was raked further to aid visibility. All S3 engines had bigger, 2in SU carburettors and this modification, together with raised compression, gave the cars an edge in performance, particularly above 60mph. For the first time as standard, the front seats were individual, rather than a single bench.One of the last cars built, this S3 Flying Spur was initially registered on the 25 March 1966 to the first of just three UK owners and has been significantly restored in the intervening years. Showing an odometer reading of 47,050 miles, at the time of cataloguing, and last MOT'd in 2009 this car was purchased in 2014 and has formed a part of a large collection which included some historically significant Bentley R-Type Continentals and S-series drophead-coupes. Although stored correctly and presenting well, the car hasn't had much in the way of maintenance or servicing and as such is sold as a "non-runner". We would caution any buyer to treat the car to a thorough going over upon delivery.In recent years this car has formed part of a large collection and as such has received little or no use and an element of recommissioning is to be expected to return it to the road once again.

The popular and capable TR4A, a true British classicA UK-market example with just four previous keepers, accompanied by numerous invoices and a Heritage Certificate The 4A debuted in 1965 and introduced an all-new independent rear suspension system (IRS)It combined a modern Michelotti-designed body with the chassis of the previous TR3AThe 2138cc, TR3A engine continued offering a top speed of almost 110 mph with overdriveThe four-cylinder TRs are among the easiest of post-war classic sports cars to own and maintain being supported by a multitude of component suppliers and other specialistsThis car has formed part of a large collection with little or no use. An element of recommissioning is to be expected to return it to the road once againProduced between 1961 and 1967, the Triumph TR4 combined a new, modern, and aggressive body design by famed Italian stylist, Giovanni Michelotti, with the basic chassis of the previous TR3A. The TR4 also improved passenger comfort with wind-up windows, face-level ventilation, and an optional hardtop. When equipped with the optional overdrive, the TR4 was good for a top speed of almost 110mph.Following on from the TR4, the new TR4A was phased in smoothly at the beginning of 1965 and introduced an all-new independent rear suspension system (IRS), which provided exceptional rear-wheel camber control with excellent wheel travel while softer springs improved the ride quality. Having six universal joints, three prop shafts and two trailing arms, the system was appreciatively more expensive than the previous live axle arrangement (dealers in the US reacted uncomfortably to the new design on cost grounds; to appease them, Triumph actually built the TR4A in two forms, one with a live axle primarily for the US and the TR4A IRS for other markets where the price was less sensitive). The press was happy to see an all-independent car, and Triumph was pleased to be the first British car manufacturer to have all-independent suspensions under every car in their line-up. At the Sebring 12 Hours in 1966, ample proof of the validity of the IRS was provided when three IRS-equipped TR4As achieved a remarkable 1-2-3 class victory. Body production changes for the TR4A were a new grille, decoration and badging, and a radically different chassis (designed to accept the new semi-trailing arm independent rear suspension), plus the introduction of an up-rated version of the 2138cc Vanguard unit, now with a better cylinder head breathing through a new exhaust, giving 104bhp at 4,700rpm. Other changes were new decoration, badging, sidelights and chrome trim along the door/wings, a wooden dash, and better seats. The hood too was revised with proper catches at the front, which ensured it would stay on, unlike the pitifully poor TR4 hood.The car presented here is UK-supplied, right-hand drive 1966 Triumph TR4A dating from the 6th April 1966 and sent to Puttocks Ltd. of Guildford for sale. With only four previous keepers, this 4A has led a well-cared-for life in the hands of genuine enthusiasts immediately evident by the accompanying history file showing much expenditure on maintenance and upkeep over the years. A BMC Heritage Trust Certificate is also present and evidence that at least one previous owner was a member of the TR Register. A UK-market example is relatively rare and the most desirable, giving the new owner the opportunity to step straight into a very well-regarded British classic.In recent years, this car has formed part of a large collection and as such has received little or no use and an element of recommissioning is to be expected to return it to the road once again.

**Sale Room Announcement** The car has aminor clutch issue, vendor has agreed to have it repaired immediatley following sale at his expense.Well restored, matching numbers, overdrive box, Mk 2 with a distinct Coombs influence.Finished in Opalescent Blue with French Blue hide and looks fabulousFitted with Coombs-style arches, louvred bonnet, painted wires and S/S exhaustElectronic ignition, high torque starter, sports manifold, handling kit, poly-bushedOriginal reg number. Comprehensive history file, Heritage Certificate, numerous invoices, photographs of the rebuild and spare keysOne of the nicest Mk2s we have seen for a long timeYour earliest inspection is encouraged and welcomedThe 2.4 saloon of 1955 had been a major step for Jaguar, marking as it did the change from a coachbuilt chassis to one of unitary construction; it was a necessary move, however, Jaguar being aware there was a strong market for a more compact saloon than the big Mk IX. Powered by a 2,482cc version of the superb twin-cam straight-six XK engine first seen in the XK120, the 2.4 offered luxury, performance and value for money. Using coil spring/wishbone front and semi-elliptic spring rear suspension, it possessed fine road manners and proved a great success, both on and off the track, particularly when the Mk1, as it subsequently became known, became available with the 3.4-litre engine in February 1957.It was in October 1959 that the Mk 2 version appeared, making a good car even better. Similar in appearance but with a much larger glass area, it boasted a wider rear track to improve roadholding together with minor front suspension changes to reduce body roll and all-round disc rather than drum brakes. Engine options included the 120bhp 2.4-litre, the 210bhp 3.4-litre and, for the first time the 220bhp 3,781cc unit of the Mk IX.Having enjoyed considerable success as a racing driver, most notably in Formula 1, John Coombs retired from racing to concentrate on running his Guildford-based Jaguar dealership. He race-prepared cars for himself and other drivers gaining particular success with Jaguar Mk 2 saloons, engineering considerably faster and more reliable cars than the standard examples.Pleasingly still sporting its original registration number, and looking absolutely delightful, '1856 RH' is finished in Opalescent Blue with French Blue Hide and sits on black-painted painted wire wheels with 3-eared spinners. It's a matching-numbers, manual box with overdrive car and has just benefitted from a total ground-up restoration to the very highest of standards. It's been professionally presented to reflect the influence that John Coombs had on the Mk 2 market back in the day and upgraded during the process to enhance the driving experience wherever possible. Coombs-style rear arches have been employed in conjunction with a louvred bonnet (note the correct amount of louvres stamped) to aesthetically lift the car, whilst mechanically the detailed engine bay, complete with a Coombs of Guildford plaque secreted away, houses electronic ignition, a high torque starter, sports manifold and a Coombs-style, Bell Stainless Steel Exhaust. The underside of the vehicle is also gleaming and fully detailed, set off by a Harvey Bailey Handling Kit and Poly-bushed suspension.Internally the Reuter reclining seats have been fully retrimmed in leather together with the door cards, new carpets and replacement headlining, as well as newly veneered woodwork and a period-style wood-rimmed steering wheel for a sportier feel.Accompanied by a comprehensive history file, its Heritage Certificate, numerous invoices, photographs of the rebuild and spare keys, this stunning Mk 2 is a testament to the craftsmen that have given this particular Jaguar a new lease of life. Now ready to be enjoyed once again, out on the open road and chatting to fellow enthusiasts about that special Coombs Jaguar look. I don't think for one minute that John Coombs, whilst popping a few louvres into the bonnet of his Mk2 to keep it a bit cooler, would have imagined that 60 years later, enthusiasts are talking about his creation in hushed tones.You can now book a one to one appointment (up to one hour) to view this lot at our central location between 16th and 30th July.

The 'SA-30 Collection' - 30 exceptional vehicles chosen to celebrate 30 years of the Silverstone Classic and all excitingly offered at No ReserveOne of only 235 UK-supplied, right-hand drive 246 GT SpidersDelivered new by Dick Lovett Specialist Cars to its first owner in Northampton in June 1973Finished in Azzuro Dino Metallico with Beige VM 3218 hide, Beige carpets and electric windowsThis matching numbers example has only covered a documented 18,275 miles from newRecent refresh to return the car to its original colour of Blue Met DinoDocumentation with the car includes copies of the original order and invoice from Ferrari to Dick Lovett, DVLA ownership from new, MOTs and service invoices dating back to 1974. Factory manuals and bespoke JackRarely do such well-documented cars of this quality come to market and we are proud to offer this beautiful example which is now ready to begin the next chapter of its lifeThe new Dino 246GT was an absolute delight from all angles, its beauty, handling, engine note, mid-engined layout, unusually good all-round visibility and comparative affordability made it absolutely irresistible. The voluptuous bodywork, which many people regard as the prettiest ever to grace a road-going Ferrari, was designed by Pininfarina and built by Scaglietti and covered a tubular chassis which carried wishbone independent suspension at each corner. The 190bhp engine, with four overhead camshafts, was mounted transversely behind the driver and in front of the rear axle. Power to the wheels was transmitted via drop gears to the transverse 5-speed gearbox, in unit with the differential and engine sump. With rack and pinion steering and a mid-engined configuration, it was a revelation in terms of road holding and stability, nothing had been made like this before and it left its larger V12-engined siblings in its wake.This was a very modern car and a real step in Ferrari history announcing a new age for Ferrari in concept and design. Sparkling acceleration and a top speed of 145mph combined with a comfortable interior and some usable boot space meant that it was a genuine 'Grand Touring' car. Proving a great sales success, production of the Dino 246 finished in 1974 with 2,487 GTs and 1,274 GTS models.This fabulous Dino GTS was supplied new in right-hand drive by Dick Lovett Specialist Cars to a William John Blundell of Northampton on the 3rd June 1973 finished in Azzuro Dino Metallico with Beige VM 3218 hide, Beige carpets and electric windows, exactly as the car is presented today. It was first registered EAM 97L and a photocopy of the 'Green' Logbook is with the car. Within this car's super History File are copies of the original telephone order from Dick Lovett to the Factory and the Bills of Sale from Ferrari to Maranello Concessionaires (£4,902.00) and from Dick Lovett to the first owner (£5,537.36).The car was returned to Maranello Concessionaires in late 1979 for work to be carried out and there is a 4-page invoice in the file dated 29th February 1980 detailing those costs (£4,438.09). At the time, the second-hand value of a Dino was around £6,000 to put this expenditure into perspective. The speedometer head was also replaced with the original reading 15,445 miles. The MOT dated March 10th 1980 shows an odometer reading of 40 miles covered in the first few days of having the Dino back. At this point, the car had been painted Rosso and appears to have been looked after by Maranello for the next few years.The Ferrari was used lightly after its 1980 rebuild and by 20/01/1995 it had only covered 1,596 miles. The car's fourth owner, Mr Luay Allawi, instructed renowned Ferrari specialists, DK Engineering, to carry out a complete refresh in February 2001. Naturally, there are detailed invoices on file indicating that over 450 man-hours were spent on this recommission and the total expenditure was just short of £16,000. The car returned to DK in November of the same year, at 2,364 miles, for minor works and extensive detailing which included removing the engine to clean and paint the engine bay, specialist finishing of the carburettors and other ancillaries, strip and rebuild the driveshafts and supply and fit a 'Tubi-style' stainless silencer. The account, in this case, totalled £8,410.16 DK continued to look after and service the car until 2018 and there are invoices on file.This matching numbers example has recently been returned to its original Azzuro Dino Metallico and has still only covered 18,340 miles from new as fully documented in the extensive history file. As well as the aforementioned orders, bill of sale etc, the file also includes DVLA ownership from new, older MOTs from May 1977 through to 07/06/2018 at 2,465 miles, V5s, SORN details, dozens of invoices, correspondence, photos of the recommission and a condition report from GTO Engineering dated 02/08/ 2019. It still retains its original leather wallet with the original Service/Handbook and Parts Catalogue and the bespoke Dino jack.A superb, UK-supplied, rare original right-hand drive Dino GTS in a truly beautiful colour combination with genuine documented low mileage and literally just serviced by marque expert Bob Houghton.You can now book a one to one appointment (up to one hour) to view this lot at our central location between 16th and 30th July.

A 'C16' UK Supplied, right-hand drive, 944 Turbo with 21,000 miles from newA superbly preserved 944 Turbo. Comprehensive history, invoices from Autofarm and RPM, plus its original book-pack with stamped service bookletFeatured on a PistonHeads article saying 'This 944 Turbo might well be one of very best. There's just enough patina to confirm the odometer's admission to 21,000 miles, but in every other regard its near immaculate and in what seems to be completely original nick'Sold previously by Autofarm to a prominent and knowledgeable Porsche aficionado217bhp, 2.5-litre engine boosted by forced induction. Clutch and gearbox uprated to suitThe Turbo also featured improved aerodynamics, an integrated front bumper, standard external oil coolers for both the engine and transmission, standard 16-inch wheels, and a slightly stiffer suspension set-upPowerful 911 front and rear brakes with Brembo 4-piston fixed calipers, 12-inch discs and ABSFollowing the international success of their nimble 924, Porsche designed an all-alloy, 2.5-litre inline-four for their new 944 which they planned to introduce in 1982. Their talented engineers were able to produce a very smooth running four-cylinder engine by utilising two counter-rotating balance shafts running at twice engine speed. The result is a large four-cylinder engine that feels as turbine-smooth as a six.Cosmetically, the 944's bodywork was revised with wider wheel arches (like that of the 924 Carrera GT), a fresh interior and upgrades to the brakes and suspension. With greater visual presence and the performance to match, better handling, stopping power and more creature comforts, the 944 was a natural step forward.A 'turbo' version of the 944 was always on the cards, and for the 1985 model year, Porsche introduced the 944 Turbo, known internally as the 951. Forced induction boosted the 2.5-litre engine by a healthy 60bhp, up to 217bhp, with the clutch and gearbox uprated to suit. The Turbo also featured several other changes, such as improved aerodynamics, notably an integrated front bumper, standard external oil coolers for both the engine and transmission, standard 16-inch wheels (optional forged Fuchs alloys), and a slightly stiffer suspension set-up. The Turbo's front and rear brakes were borrowed from the Porsche 911, with Brembo 4-piston fixed calipers and 12-inch discs and ABS was also standard. The car presented here is a 1986 Porsche 944 Turbo Coupé and is a C16 (UK-supplied) RHD example. It is one of the most original examples of its type we have ever offered, having been in the hands of real marque enthusiasts over the years. The car featured in a PistonHeads article saying "This 944 Turbo might well be one of very best. There's just enough patina to confirm the odometer's admission to 21,000 miles, but in every other regard its near immaculate and in what seems to be completely original nick".The adage of buying the best example you can find of anything, is very evident here - if you want a best-of-breed 944 Turbo, this car is certainly that. Never restored just maintained extremely well and used infrequently, with specialists such as Autofarm and RPM looking after it over the years, there is much to appreciate here. Supported by a comprehensive history file, numerous invoices and its original book-pack with stamped service booklet, the whole package is hard to beat.This car has formed part of a significant collection for the past few years. In preparation for the sale, the engine will be flushed, filled with fresh oil and a new filter fitted, the fuel tank drained, flushed and filled with 20 litres of fuel, fitted with a new battery and issued with a fresh MOT Certificate. A safety check will also be carried out along with an inspection report included in the history file.You can now book a one to one appointment (up to one hour) to view this lot at our central location between 16th and 30th July.

The basic facts can look a bit dry; Type 993, 450 bhp, 3605cc air-cooled flat six-cylinder engine with twin turbochargers and electronic fuel injection, six-speed manual transaxle, front and rear independent suspension with coil springs, and four-wheel ventilated steel disc brakes, however, the Turbo S was a big step up over the standard 911 Turbo in terms of performance and price. Headlined by a 0-60 mph time of 3.6 seconds, the Turbo S could hit 100 mph from a standstill in 8.9 seconds, only half a second faster than the standard Turbo. But that didn't matter, the Turbo S was special and getting your name on the waiting list to buy one was nigh on impossible unless you were very closely related to a Dealer Principal. All 345 examples of the 993 Turbo S were built by Porsche's Exclusive department and the specification included a number of unique features when compared to other 911s of the period. The car sported yellow brake callipers, a unique rear spoiler, polished five-spoke Turbo S wheels, an Aerokit front spoiler, an air intake in the rear wings, and four exhaust pipes at the rear. Inside, the 911 Turbo S luxuriated in carbon fibre trim contrasting with the softest of leathers and provided the type of luxury that customers had come to know and love from Porsche's top-shelf models.This, 'C16' UK-Supplied, right-hand drive, Turbo S is one of only 26 and has covered a remarkable 29,097 miles from new. Supplied with two sets of keys, service book, manuals and reams of invoices this special car will reward any inspection.This car has formed part of a significant collection for the past few years. In preparation for the sale, the engine will be flushed, filled with fresh oil and a new filter fitted, the fuel tank drained, flushed and filled with 20 litres of fuel, fitted with a new battery and issued with a fresh MOT Certificate. A safety check will also be carried out along with an inspection report included in the history file.As one of the last air-cooled 911s, the Turbo S is one of the most powerful models to have worn the 911 moniker and as a result makes it hugely desirable and collectable.You can now book a one to one appointment (up to one hour) to view this lot at our central location between 16th and 30th July.

**Sale Room Notice** Waiting return of V5C from DVLA due to Cherished number retention, expected imminently. Copy of original V5C present in history file for reference.UK-supplied, right-hand drive, Concours-winning GTS with less than 20,000 miles.Only one previous owner with current since January 1978Very low mileage from new with only 19,696 milesFinished in Argento Metallizzato with light blue leather and dark blue carpetsFerrari Owners Club multiple Concours winning with supporting evidence & scoringServiced, new cambelts and MOT completed September 2019 (£4,000)Fastidious restoration, fully documented with photographs and invoices etcLarge and comprehensive history file including original Ferrari Warranty CardContinues to maintain its Concours-winning quality by adopting a 'no expense spared' guardianshipThe new Dino 246GT was an absolute delight from all angles, its beauty, handling, engine note, mid-engined layout, unusually good all-round visibility and comparative affordability made it absolutely irresistible. The voluptuous bodywork, which many people regard as the prettiest ever to grace a road-going Ferrari, was designed by Pininfarina and built by Scaglietti and covered a tubular chassis which carried wishbone independent suspension at each corner. The 190bhp engine, with four overhead camshafts, was mounted transversely behind the driver and in front of the rear axle. Power to the wheels was transmitted via drop gears to the transverse 5-speed gearbox, in unit with the differential and engine sump. With rack and pinion steering and a mid-engined configuration, it was a revelation in terms of road holding and stability, nothing had been made like this before and it left its larger V12-engined siblings in its wake.This was a very modern car and a real step in Ferrari history announcing a new age for Ferrari in concept and design. Sparkling acceleration and a top speed of 145mph combined with a comfortable interior and some usable boot space meant that it was a genuine 'Grand Touring' car.There was an addition to the range in 1972 when the Spider version was introduced. With the exception of the detachable roof there was little difference between the two models, but the 246GTS, as it was designated, has become all the more desirable as a collector's car, particularly as only 1,274 were produced in its three years of production.This magnificent Concours-winning 246GT Spider was first registered on the 18th of May 1973 and remains a two-owners from new example with the current owner having enjoyed it for the last 42 years. A passionate Formula One fan and sports car enthusiast, it was his dream to own a Ferrari and that dream came true in January 1978 when he was able to buy a shiny Dino (at that point in Dino Blue) that was less than five years old from a fellow businessman in Yorkshire.The Ferrari was his pride and joy and was used lightly over the years. He dedicated much time and care to maintaining it to an exceptional standard, however, it is a Ferrari and after 20 years, and having decided to keep the car forever, the time had come for more serious attention.A professional two-year restoration was commenced in 1998 using the services of a number of the areas most knowledgeable experts and marque specialists. The bodywork was completely stripped back to bare metal, corroded panels replaced and joints/seams professionally lead-loaded throughout. The chassis was bead blasted and refinished in satin black along with the suspension components. The car was painted in Argento Metallizzato with such care that the quality of finish subsequently impressed even the most hard-nosed of Concours Judges. It was then carefully reassembled (it was a 2-year restoration) and benefitted from a new windscreen, driver's and passenger door glass, new suspension bushes, window, door and roof seals. Whilst the engine was out, it was rebuilt with new pistons, valves and seats, cylinder heads skimmed, new clutch assembly and all associated gaskets and fixings. It was then popped back into the refurbished engine bay and the process of recommissioning and getting the Ferrari running, stopping and handling correctly began. All of this work with the associated invoices can be inspected in the A4 ring-binder history file that's with the car.Now that the Dino was restored to an immaculate condition, our vendor and his wife decided to try their hand at Ferrari Owners Club Concours and they were rewarded with a First in Class in July 2003. It wasn't entered to Concours in 2004 but was entered again in 2005 and awarded a worthy Third. With the car are the score sheets and supporting correspondence from the Ferrari Owners Club verifying such prestigious achievements.Our vendor continued to enjoy his car and trusted the expertise of the staff at Strasse (Porsche) for ongoing maintenance and care which they carried out to the highest of standards. However, over more recent years, the Ferrari has been in dry storage and hardly used and, in order to prepare it for sale, it has been subject to a thorough recommission, including a full service, cambelt replacement and a fresh MOT. The current indicated mileage is 19,696 from new supported by the detailed history file.This remarkable little car has been part of a caring family for 42 years and it shows. It's simply delightful, in sparkling condition, and now ready for a new custodian and further adventures, be those Ferrari Club Concours or simply stowing the lid and setting off for the Cotswolds on a sunny afternoon. Either way, you will have to be careful, as this may well turn out to be the one car that you want to keep forever.
