c.1950 RA4 Vanguard Formula Libre Grand Prix MonopostoChassis no. RA4*An important part of New Zealand single-seater racing history*One of a handful of innovative single-seaters built by Hec Green and Jack Brewer*In-period race history at international events (Lady Wigram Trophy) *FIA papers valid until 2029*Invited to the Goodwood Revival MeetingFootnotes:A wonderful showcase for Kiwi ingenuity that deserves to be more widely recognised, the RA4 Vanguard was built in 1950/1951 in Christchurch, New Zealand and first appeared at the 1951 Lady Wigram International meeting at Christchurch. It is one of five or six innovative single-seaters built by Hec Green and Jack Brewer. The RA4's inspiration appears to have been the pre-war Auto Union Grand Prix car; indeed, its trailing-arm front suspension is as used by Auto Union but sprung by rubber bands, a medium used extensively in aircraft landing gear. The rear suspension was an unusual low-pivot swing-axle arrangement, with springing by hydraulic oleo struts from the tail wheels of Curtiss P40 Kittyhawk fighter aircraft. Adjustments could be made from the cockpit via a system of pulleys and levers. Messrs Green and Brewer obtained the Auto Union specifications from the UK where a booklet on the German GP cars prepared by Army Engineers was issued after the war. They were both aircraft mechanics during WW2, hence the aircraft practices. The supercharged engine was based on a modified Standard Vanguard unit, boasting larger cylinder head studs; cross drilled crankshaft; and a Hec Green-designed and ground camshaft. It was fed by a pair of SU carburettors via a Wade aircraft cabin blower, which was chain-driven from the front of the crankshaft to provide 14lb of boost. Fuel was a methanol blend, with the engine producing over 200bhp, while detonation was kept in check by water injection. The transmission was a three-speed sequential transaxle of the makers' own design and manufacture, based on Cisitalia drawings. This proved well up to the task and is still in the car today. Despite a lack of development, the RA4 performed well at many international and local meetings in NZ from 1951 through to 1960 when it was outclassed by the 'new' mid-engined Coopers... Its history includes the International Lady Wigram Trophy in 1951, 1952, 1953, 1958 and 1960; participation at various road circuits; and the New Zealand Beach Racing Championship. The car was restored and rebuilt in 2009 with input from Jack Brewer. It comes with a huge history file containing contemporary news reports, race cards, etc and a VCC NZ logbook. A spare engine (condition unknown) and a spare supercharger are included in the sale. The RA4 is without doubt one of the most revolutionary of post-war Grand Prix cars and has never been offered for sale before outside NZ. It has an FIA Historic Technical Passport issued in 2020, has been invited to Goodwood, and has run at the Chateau Impney Hill Climb. This is a wonderful opportunity to own a unique Grand Prix car eligible for some of the world's most prestigious Historic motor sports events.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

1970 Aston Martin DB6 Mk2 Vantage Sports SaloonRegistration no. YKR 270J (see text)Chassis no. DB6Mk2/4255/REngine no. 400/4598/VC•One of only 240 DB6 Mk2s manufactured•An older (1980s) restoration to a high standard•AMOC Stanway Concours Volz Trophy winner (1987)•Present ownership since 2008•Offered at No ReserveFootnotes:The final incarnation of the 'DB4' family, the DB6 Mk2 incorporated many components shared with the successor DBS, most obviously the latter's wider wheels that necessitated flaring the front and rear wheelarches. All Mk2 Vantages came with the highest (325bhp) 'C' state of tune, while all cars benefited from power-assisted steering as standard. Production lasted from July 1969 to November 1970, during which time only 240 DB6 Mk2s were manufactured. According to the build record, this DB6 Mk2 Vantage was completed on 8th April 1970 but not despatched from the factory until 5th November that year, destined for Eton Garages Ltd in Windsor, Berkshire and finished in Olive with Pigskin leather interior. It is understood from a Byron International advert on file that the Aston was first registered (in Kent) on 9th November 1970 but its first owner is not known. According to the advert the earliest known owner was a Mrs Susans of Guilford, Surrey (from December 1983) followed by Frank Reeder & Sons Ltd (Performance and Specialist Cars) of Pewsey, Wiltshire (from April 1984). The advert describes four concours events attended while the DB6 was owned by Mike and Graham Reeder, including Stanway in 1987 where it is said to have won the coveted Volz Trophy. The other three outings produced one 2nd and two 3rd places, clearly demonstrating that the Reeders had done an excellent job in restoring it.The Aston was kept in a heated garage throughout the 1990s, and in December 2001 was sold to Mr Robert Stephens of Gloucestershire. Mr Stephens kept the car for two years before exchanging it with the Reeders, from whom it was purchased by Mr Paul Housego of Devon in August 2003. The current owner purchased the Aston from Byron International in November 2008 (see invoice and advertisement copy on file). At that time it was stated that the car was finished in Canyon Pearl Red with tan leather interior, and that it had been restored between March 1984 and March 1986 by the Reeders and marque specialists Goldsmith & Young (which ties in with the 1987 Volz Trophy concours award). MoT mileage totals were quoted as rising from 56,906 in October 1985 to 68,741 in August 2008. It was further noted that the DB6 had the five-speed ZF manual gearbox and that it had benefited from an unleaded conversion. Exported in 2008, the car comes with copies of its BMIHT Certificate and old-style V5C document but will require reregistering and be subject to the low rate import duty of 5% should the successful purchaser wish to resume using it in the UK. The Mk2 has received a cursory engineer's inspection and the car started and held good oil pressure. We found the brake master cylinder was sticking and, as it has been stored in recent years, it will likely require further recommissioning before being returned to the road.Lot to be sold without reserve.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: * N* VAT on imported items at a preferential rate of 5% on Hammer Price and the prevailing rate on Buyer's Premium.N MOTORCYCLESIf purchased by a UK resident, this machine is subject to a NOVA declaration, whilst the responsibility of submitting the NOVA rests with the Buyer to do so, Bonhams will facilitate the process by engaging an agent (SHIPPIO) to undertake the NOVA and C88 (customs) application if applicable on the Buyer's behalf.

The ex-factory Grand Prix team car1936 Riley 1½-Litre TT Sprite Competition SportsRegistration no. AVC 19Chassis no. 22T1750*In-period competition history at Le Mans, French Grand Prix, RAC Tourist Trophy* Driven by Sebilleau, Von Der Becke, Lapchin, Forestier and Pierre Ferry*Restored between 2006 and 2019*Original Pierre Ferry body as spare*FIA papers until 2029*Eligible for Historic Le Mans and many other prestigious eventsFootnotes:'From the experience gained with the racing MPHs, Riley went on to produce, in 1935, the next generation of racing Rileys, the TT Sprites. The first four of these cars were in fact built as MPHs in the 44T chassis number series, the other cars of that first batch being numbered in the 22T series. These cars were the immortal AVC 15, AVC 16, AVC 17, AVC 18, AVC 19 and AVC 20.' – David G Styles, As Old as the Industry – Riley – 1898-1969.It is believed that 'AVC 19' was constructed by Riley using the chassis from the six-cylinder MPH racer, 'KV 9478', chassis number '44T2128'. The evidence for this is the fact that the near-side front dumb iron shows evidence of the chassis' reuse: '22T1750' is stamped on the side, with evidence of '44T2128' stamped on the top. There is also evidence apparently showing where the MPH chassis had the brackets for the front axle radius arms removed. The Riley MPH racer registered 'KV 9478' was driven by Messrs Dixon and Paul in the 1934 Le Mans, and by Brackenbury in the 1934 Tourist Trophy. It is said to have been dismantled by the factory in the summer of 1935.Chassis number '22T1750', was registered by Riley in May 1936 as 'AVC 19', a Coventry mark. It then competed in the 1936 Tourist Trophy driven by Von der Becke as number '14', finishing 9th, and would go on to contest the French Grand Prix in 1936 driven by Sebilleau and Paul as number '2', finishing 3rd in the up-to-2-Litre class. Driven by Von der Becke at that year's Tourist Trophy as number '22', the Sprite finished 11th.Riley surrendered the logbook on the 16th March 1937 and the car was sold as a rolling chassis to the Riley agent in France, Eudel et Cie. The Sprite was registered by Eudel as '2086RL' and re-bodied. Driven by Eudel's mechanic, M Lapchin (who it is believed may have purchased the car later), the Sprite was used as the third car in Eudel's team. The Riley was driven by Raoul Forestier in the 1937 Le Mans 24 Hours race, but was retired following an accident just beyond White House involving six cars. In the 1937 French Grand Prix the car was again driven by Forestier, finishing 2nd in the Coupe de la Commission Sportive 2-Litre class. In the spring of 1938 the car was sold to Pierre Ferry who drove it at Monthlery in 1939 and in the 'Virage de Fay' Coupe de Paris race on 7th May 1939, after which the car appears to have remained dormant throughout the war years.Resuming its competition career in September 1945, the Riley was un-placed in the Paris Benoist Cup. In 1948 the car was sold by Ferry to a person unknown. Subsequently the Riley was bought by a Besançon worker for his son, and while in Besançon was registered as '430 AU25' and later '430 AU36' (when the son moved).In 1957 the car was purchased by someone called Marcel (surname unknown) and again re-registered when it was in the Torreilles area of France as '764 BF66'. This was the car's registration when Henry Geary, the former Riley Competitions Department and 'AVC 19' mechanic, found it. After 15 years of negotiations, he eventually succeeded in purchasing the Riley in 1965. Henry removed the heavy steel Pierre Ferry French body and then spent many years working on the car but sadly never finished it. The Riley was passed to his daughter at which point a further three years of restoration work commenced, finishing in 2009.In 2018 the vendor was able to acquire the original 1935 body together with many of the competition components for 'AVC 19' that had been kept by various individuals since they were removed by the Riley Competitions Department prior to the car's sale to the Riley agent in France as a rolling chassis. There then followed a nine-month period of reinstalling these original competition parts, including the fuel tank, front axle, rear axle, lights, etc. Combined with the original Pierre Ferry body as spare, 'AVC 19' is certainly one of the most significant Riley TT sprites in existence. Retaining its original four-cylinder engine and having had a recent gearbox overhaul, this historic racing Riley is in wonderful order. 'AVC 19' is offered with an assortment of spares including its original Pierre Ferry body that it ran at Monthlery in 1939 and in the 'Virage de Fay' Coupe de Paris race on 7th May 1939 (see image and section 10 of the history file). Photographs on file also show the stamped wooden tail and the original stamped dash both showing '1750'. Also included is a substantial history file containing restoration bills, an old-style logbook, relevant historical articles and photographs, old MOT certificates, as well as a V5C Registration Certificate and FIA papers until 2029.Pre-war factory competition cars are rare, and even rarer with in-period racing history at Le Mans, the French Grand Prix, and RAC Tourist Trophy like this Riley TT Sprite, all of which makes it a car of exceptional historic importance.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
