1970 Jaguar E-Type 4.2 Coupe- Warranted 13,000 miles from new in the hands of three American owners- Power steering, four-speed manual transmission, Black leather upholstery- Checked over by ADR Engineering of Wokingham since being imported to the UKIntroduced in August 1968, the Series II version of Jaguar's immortal E-Type sported redesigned bumpers and lights. Less noticeable was its enlarged front air intake which in conjunction with dual cooling fans made the newcomer better behaved in hot weather and heavy traffic. With its 4235cc DOHC straight-six engine developing a quoted 265bhp/283lbft, the Jaguar was reputedly capable of nearly 150mph and 0-60mph in 7.5 seconds. Rarer than its open two-seater and 2+2-seater siblings, just 3,786 left-hand drive fixed-head two-seaters were made.Finished in Opalescent Dark Blue with Black leather upholstery, this particular example - chassis P1R27815 - was supplied new to Jim Cox of Colorado Springs. Fitted with power steering and four-speed manual transmission, the Jaguar had covered just 881 miles by the time he sold it to F&R Import Ltd of Engleton, Colorado as an accompanying written affidavit from a Notary Public dated 2nd January 1987 confirms. Acquired by local enthusiast Karl Morgan thereafter, the E-Type returned to F&R for various works including a thorough engine overhaul with bills on file totalling some $14,600. Routinely serviced over the next twenty years (the mileage being stated as 10,925 on an invoice dated April 1995), the two-seater also benefited from the installation of a new wiring loom and general electrical refurbishment by Vintage Jag Works of Blackfoot in 2010 ($4,557). At some point ownership transferred to Karl's son David, of Idaho Springs, from whom the UK importer bought the car last year with a written affidavit certifying that its odometer reading of 12,990 miles was correct. Since arriving in the UK, the Jaguar has been checked over and treated to a full service, fresh battery, new front brake discs and rubber mountings, seals, bushes and hoses by ADR Engineering of Wokingham. Said to be in `very fine condition throughout', this highly original, `matching numbers', low mileage E-Type is worthy of close inspection.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.

1921 Wolseley Ten '200-Mile' Race Evocation- Built by enthusiast Colin Thomas during the early 1980s as a faithful copy of Capt. Miller's Works Brooklands racer- Exquisite polished aluminium bodywork reproduced using period photographs by master craftsman Phil Kneller- Featured in the Vintage Sports Car Club's Bulletin and Motor Sport magazines- Offered for sale at a fraction of what it would cost to recreate todayBritain's biggest motorcar manufacturer at the outbreak of World War One, Wolseley built Hispano-Suiza aero engines under licence during the hostilities before developing its own designs. Part of the Vickers Group, it did not want for funds and was able to unveil three new models of 10hp, 15hp and 20hp at the Olympia Motor Show during November 1919 (though, production proper did not begin for over a year). Benefiting from Wolseley's aero engine expertise, the 10hp featured a sophisticated 1260cc four-cylinder OHC engine and three-speed transaxle. Beautifully made, the newcomer was - at £545 - also considerably more expensive than many of its rivals. Keen to boost sales, Wolseley's managing director Arthur McCormack tasked Captain A.G. Miller with establishing a competition department in 1921 (Miller had enjoyed notably success the previous year with two 1914 Opel Grand Prix cars). Bodied as a single-seater in polished aluminium, Miller's first Wolseley Ten racer rose to prominence in late 1921 when it set ten new (1.5-litre class) speed records at Brooklands including averaging 81.79mph for 500 miles! Christened `Moth', the record breaker was said to be comparatively standard mechanically apart from a high-lift camshaft, alloy pistons and larger carburettor etc.Suitably encouraged, Miller ordered a two-seater version to be built for the Junior Car Club's highly prestigious annual 200-Mile Race at Brooklands. Finishing 8th-in-class at an average of 66.2mph in 1922, the two-seater performed even better the following year finishing 10th overall at an average of 76.25mph. Contesting other events aside from the one it had been constructed for, the `200-Mile' car came 3rd in the 1922 Armistice Meeting and 2nd in the 1923 BARC August Meeting. The success of `Moth' and the `200-Mile' car even convinced future Bentley Boy Woolf Barnato to commission and campaign `Moth II'. Sadly, the link between Miller and Wolseley was severed when McCormack resigned at the end of 1923. Thereafter, the Miller Wolseleys faded into obscurity with none surviving to the present day. Inspired by enthusiast John End's recreation of `Moth', Colin Thomas set about making a faithful copy of the `200-Mile' car in the early 1980s. Using an original 1921 Wolselely Ten rolling chassis as the basis and ably assisted by John End, he tasked master craftsman Phil Kneller with reproducing the two-seater's exquisite polished aluminium bodywork from period photographs. Non-standard parts were faithfully manufactured from drawings such as the high-lift camshaft, three-inch diameter outside exhaust pipe, extended oil filler neck to facilitate quick pitstops and bespoke outside handbrake etc.Debuting at the VSCC's Prescott Meeting in August 1984, Thomas's `200-Mile' Evocation appeared in the Club's Bulletin publication several times and, along with End's recreated `Moth', was the subject of an article by Bill Boddy in Motor Sport magazine. Acquired by Stephen Battye for his impressive Yorkshire Car Museum during 2003, the Wolseley was carefully stripped and reassembled after a period of dry storage. The engine and transaxle were overhauled (with the former receiving a new correct-specification carburettor). The steering and braking systems were inspected and a new bulkhead and dashboard fabricated. As well as appropriate Wolseley instrumentation, the cockpit received new Black leather upholstery. The leaf springs were rebound in glace cord and `Wolseley 1' sign-written on the radiator cowl and nearside tail to better mimic Miller's original. Kept in carpeted surroundings for the last few years, the `200-Mile' Evocation is wonderfully detailed and certainly rewards close inspection. Formerly used for sprints / hillclimbs, the Wolseley is offered for sale with a VSCC Buff Form (expired), V5C Registration Document and history file. Needless to say, this jewel-like Vintage racer would cost considerably more than its guide price to restore today!PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl. VAT
1924 Peugeot 172 BS Grand Sport- Formerly road registered in France and more recently Belgium- Very rare and pretty Vintage sports car- Discretely modified with a propshaft-driven alternator, electric cooling fan and electronic ignition (hidden within the magneto)Still suffering from the financial woes inflicted upon it by World War One, Peugeot sought to increase sales by concocting a neat cyclecar design that fell within France's lowest 100 Francs per annum tax bracket. Unveiled at the 1920 Brussels Salon, the resultant Type 161 (quickly christened the Quadrilette) weighed less than 350kg yet featured a water-cooled 667cc sidevalve four-cylinder engine, three-speed transaxle, supple leaf-sprung suspension and rear wheel brakes. Very much a full-size car in miniature, and therefore appealing to the same market as the Austin 7 in Britain, early Quadrilettes were characterised by their narrow track and tandem seating. Incorporating more space for people and luggage alike, the wider tracked Type 172 arrived during 1923 (complete with two abreast seating). Among the rarest Quadrilette variants, the Type 172 BS or Grand Sport was powered by an enlarged 720cc engine. Aimed at the sporting motorist, its sleek torpedo coachwork was typically teamed with blade wings. Very much in the same idiom as the Austin 7 Ulster and Amilcar CGS `Grand Sport', the Peugeot was rarer than either. Only available for 1924, just 100 Type 172 BS Grand Sports were made.Originally registered in France (or so an accompanying Permis de Circulation from 1933 which identifies it as a Type 172 BS would suggest), this delightful Grand Sport has more recently been resident in Belgium where it wore the number plate `OA1767' and was the property of Daniel Vanhoolant. Understood to have participated in numerous `Ecurie Les Trapadelles' events and still bearing the Club's name to its cowl, the Peugeot also wears a Veteran Car Club of Belgium plate confirming its year of manufacture. Self-evidently the subject of much past restoration work, the Grand Sport has been discretely modified with a propshaft-driven alternator, electric cooling fan and electronic ignition (hidden within the magneto).PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.

1929 Hotchkiss AM2 Tourer- Seven years of labour went into creating this vintage Tourer on a AM2 rolling chassis- The open tourer coachwork was copied from the Gurney Nutting body - Subject to a comprehensive engine overhaul and offered complete with photographic record of the restorationSeven years of painstaking labour went into creating this vintage Tourer. It is based on an AM2 rolling chassis purchased from Ren£ Barke of Normandy in 2008. The instigator of the project was a trained engineer, member of the British Hotchkiss Society, and owner of a later AM80 model, so well qualified to take on the task. The chassis was completely stripped and the engine, gearbox, torque tube, rear axle and running gear all totally refurbished. The open tourer coachwork was copied from the Gurney Nutting body of the restorer's AM80. Its construction comprised a framework of French ash panelled in 2mm birch WBP plywood (apparently as used on the WWII De Havilland Mosquito). The outer structure was then finished with a layer of British Racing Green-coloured fabric and the interior trimmed in Beige leather. The comprehensive engine overhaul included: a crankshaft regrind; cylinder rebore; new pistons, valves and bearings; and machining of the cylinder head. For superior lubrication a contemporary full-flow oil filter was installed with additional feed to the timing gears. The completed masterpiece first took to the roads in March last year and has covered just 1,000 since. As all aspects of `BF 7189' are either new or refurbished, it's no surprise that the vendor presently considers the bodywork, paintwork, interior trim, four-cylinder engine and four-speed transmission to all be in `very good' order, and he's now offering this interesting motorcar complete with photographic record of the restoration.The chief interest of the French Hotchkiss concern was the manufacture of munitions, and it was a slump in demand for those products that caused it to commence car manufacture in 1903. It is ironic that the `Hotchkiss Drive' (the transmission system of live axle and open propeller shaft) that still features on the vehicles of many other manufacturers was not used on the AM2.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.
