1996 Mercedes-Benz E320 Cabriolet SportlineRegistration no. N56 PUVChassis no. WDB1240662C288988Odometer reading: 136,900MOT Expiry: September 2021*One owner from new Mercedes A124 Cabriolet*Refurbished in 2006*Mercedes specialist servicingTo view a video of this lot please click hereFootnotes:The Mercedes W124 is renowned for being one of most well-engineered Mercedes of all time, and is famous for its bank-vault build quality and reliability. The styling is also the embodiment of Mercedes from the 1980s and 1990s, and it harks back to an era of understated style with its smooth lines, squared grille and three-pointed star bonnet ornament. The cabriolet, also known as the A124, was first launched in 1991 as the 320CE and 300CE, however these were later re-designated as the E320 in 1993. This later 1996 example is a one owner car from new and was initially leased via a leasing company in June 1996. It was originally specified to a high standard and includes the factory Sportsline package, heated leather seats and wind deflector. The car has been very well looked after throughout its lifetime, and the bodywork, paintwork and interior are all in very good condition. An overall refurbishment was also undertaken in 2006, which included fitting two new front wings and a new roof. Recent work includes a new wiring loom which was fitted in September 2020 (invoice available). The central locking however is currently not working and will require some attention. There is a good history file included with the car with regular servicing at Mercedes specialists, and the 3.2-litre straight-six engine is proof of this and is running and driving very well. The original handbook and Mercedes owner's manual are also included with the first aid package, tools and warning triangle. One owner examples of the W124 and A124 are very hard to come by, and this is an excellent and well-cared for example.Vendor Score Total: 75/100Bidders should note that the automated 100-point Seller's Assessment is provided by each Seller at the point of consignment using the guidelines below, and is not provided, assessed or verified by Bonhams MPH.

1962 Jaguar E-Type Series I Fixedhead Coupé (3.8 litre) Transmission: manualMileage:645232021 marks the 60th anniversary of the iconic Jaguar E-Type. Launched at the Geneva Motor Show in 1961 the car was nothing short of a revelation. The visionary design from Malcolm Sayer was based on Jaguar’s Le Mans winning D-Type racing car and combined beauty, high performance, and competitive pricing. This new model featured disc brakes, rack and pinion steering and independent front and rear suspension. The overall package created one of the most famous cars of all time and spurred industry wide changes.This stunning UK supplied right hand drive Series I Coupé was registered in March 1962 and is one of the first 250 E-Types produced. The car presents beautifully in Old English White and its authentic bucket seats are trimmed in contrasting black leather and are complemented by an aluminium dashboard. This exceptional, low mileage, Moss gearbox, example benefitted from a photographic restoration in 2000 and has enjoyed a no expense spared ownership since with recent works including a stainless steel exhaust, new windscreen, new doors, new rear arches and the fitment of floor panels where required and a bare metal respray. Following a restoration in 2000, this Series I has covered less than 3000 miles, and never in the rain! The shut lines are good and the underside of the car is clean. During the five year tenure of our vendor this rare Jaguar has covered less than 150 miles. The low mileage appears to be confirmed by the comprehensive MoT history. It could be said that it has been enjoyed more as a piece of art than a car but that puts it in good company as there is a Series I on display in the New York Museum of Modern Art. Regardless of the recent low usage, OJC 433 has been fully maintained annually by renowned Jaguar specialist, Alan Collins and despite its exempt status will have a fresh MoT test certificate. The history file for this wonderful car is as you would expect and contains various bills and receipts, a V5C registration document, the original owner’s manuals and sales brochure, a service manual, Heritage Certificate and the original and rare paperwork wallets. The accessories list is as impressive and includes a Shelly Jack, a toolkit, a spare wheel and wheel removal tools. Housed in a dehumidified garage under a bespoke car cover, this is one of the best examples we have offered. With an insurance value of £150,000 we also think that the estimate is as attractive as the car. Interested parties should satisfy themselves as to the description and condition of each lot prior to the sale. Accordingly, buyers are on notice that each vehicle is offered ‘as is/as seen’ subject to the Terms and Conditions for the auction. Buyers are advised to inspect the vehicle in person or use a professional to carry out this service. Historics will not entertain disputes over descriptions.

1953 Austin Healey 100/4 Transmission: manualMileage:48405Historics are truly delighted to bring to auction what is without doubt the very best Austin Healey we have ever offered. It has been completely restored down to the very last nut and bolt by its current owner, a qualified engineer, over the last seven years, having been previously dry stored in a barn for a mere 36 years! Purchased from ourselves in March 2014, the fastidious owner wanted to restore the Healey to concours standard and uncovered some very interesting history along the way.Quite simply every part of this car has been restored as evidenced by pictures held on file and the attention to original detail is second to none. Finished in its original colour of Healey Grey i.e. light metallic blue with blue leather seats piped in grey, a blue PVC hood and full tonneau cover, everything about the vehicle is finished to ex-factory standard. The chassis and engine are the original items as fitted to the car and this is confirmed by the BMIHT certificate included in the history file.The engine has been fully rebuilt to run on unleaded fuel with new bearings, big end shells, timing chain and tensioner, pistons and rings and has also been balanced, resulting in a car that, according the owner, runs ‘like a sewing machine’, although with a little more power! The rear axle, overdrive unit and gearbox have also been overhauled by specialist Hardy Engineering who also fitted their last remaining NOS lay shaft to the gearbox.Although most small fittings and bumpers/over-riders were replaced, the owner was determined to retain the originality of the vehicle where possible. Many parts have been replated to the correct chrome or zinc/cad finish by Silva Bronz in Alton, Hampshire. Other items have all been extensively restored, including the grille, badges, switchgear and gear knob, distributor, coil, dynamo, starter motor, heater unit, fuel tank, sender unit, carburettors and steering wheel/column/horn assembly. The braking system has also been completely replaced as one would expect.NWD 980 was originally registered with the Donald Healey Motor Company in Warwick on 1st October 1953 as shown in the original buff log book and V5C that come with the car, with body number 235 and an ‘Austin of England’ boot badge which confirms this as an extremely early example of a BN1 Healey. The car even has the correct early two part dash finished in the correct dark blue paint from the 100S cars. Indeed, as the 25th oldest UK right hand drive example held on the AH 100/4 register it would be eligible for a host of classic car events including the Mille Miglia and various historic car events held at Goodwood and other notable venues.Furthermore, as this particular car was extensively raced in period at Goodwood and various other race and time trial events in the 1950's it is also eligible for a whole raft of historic events. Pictures of NWD 980 being raced at Goodwood and other South of England circuits along with other evidence are held in our files and are available for inspection.Whilst very little is known about NWD 980 from 1958 -1978, the first three years of its life were most exciting. A certain Harold Wakefield of Castrol Oil fame had a particular interest in MotoCross which in the 1950's was in its zenith. He had spotted that a couple of brothers - the Rickman boys - Derek aged 20 and Don aged 21, were totally dominant in the field and always came 1st or 2nd in all their races both in the UK and Europe. They had developed a Rickman Metisse competition motorbike with its famous nickel-plated frame/oil tank, on which they won most races they entered and were clearly destined for greater things. Harold wanted to get involved in a major way and offered the Rickman brothers a three year sponsorship deal. The offer was accepted and NWD 980 was delivered shortly afterwards to Derek's home near Southampton; a photograph in the history file shows the new car outside his house, a lovely momento given to the owner by Derek together with all the other black and white photos held in the file. His brother Don received another motoring classic - a Triumph TR2 - MCR 907. During the last seven years as the present owner has rebuilt the car, it has been featured in several magazine articles and has been a source of reference for a number of other local Healey rebuilds in and around the Thames Valley area. NWD 980 has been used sparingly since the rebuild but has proved to be a super car to drive as might be expected. Everything functions as it should and it is now ready to be thoroughly enjoyed by a new owner. To those of you who ask the obvious question ....’why sell it’?... the vendor answers thus; “I am really a fan of rebuilding classic cars, previous models include an MGC GT and an Austin Healey BT7...whilst they are a joy to drive, my pleasure really comes from doing all the repairs and reconditioning, it’s the attention to detail that I like and I think I might just squeeze in one more restoration before I hang up my tools”! A response which is certainly a blessing for the lucky new owner.Interested parties should satisfy themselves as to the description and condition of each lot prior to the sale. Accordingly, buyers are on notice that each vehicle is offered ‘as is/as seen’ subject to the Terms and Conditions for the auction.

Annotated to the upper right corner also in green ink `Not for publication´. Khrushchev, in his capacity as Secretary of the Central Committee of the Ukranian Communist Party, doesn´t want that this plague and disease information is publicly known and states in part `According to the information received by the Council of Ministers of the Ukrainian SSR and CC CP(b)U, a large number of mous-like rodents appeared in Odessa, Izmail, Vinnytsia, Kiev, Chernigov Regions, and others. The lack of a proper struggle, as well as the presence of tularemia among rodents, have resulted in the spread of the disease among the population.´, Khrushchev further lists a series of orders intending to stop the plague, saying `Carry out mass events to destroy rodents in populated areas and fields, using pesticides and mousing tools; organize special teams to combat rodents in villages, collective farms and state farms; complete the threshing of the cereals, leguminous and seed plants, as well as to clear the threshing-floor from crop residues; carry out awareness-raising activities about the significance and methods to combat rodents.´ Also signed and dated at the base by D.
