1977 Morgan Plus 8 Transmission: manual Mileage: 26298Introduced in 1968, the Plus 8 became such an instant hit and enduring success that it not only provided the bedrock on which Morgan could build for the future, but quite possibly saved the company at a difficult time in its long history. Searching for new engines, Morgan concluded a deal with Rover for supply of its all aluminium 3.5 litre V8, thus creating a car that combined vintage charm with Cobra-like 'grunt' - the Plus 8. Morgan's Plus 4 chassis, strengthened and extended, formed the basis of the new car, while the existing Moss four-speed gearbox was also retained. After a successful debut at the 1968 London Motor Show, production commenced at the rate of around 15 cars per month. While the traditionally styled Morgan's brick-like aerodynamics restricted top speed to around 125mph (more than fast enough for most people driving an open car) the Rover V8's 168bhp made for supercar league performance through the gears. The Morgan Plus 8 was very popular and remained in production for 36 years. Originally registered on 21st March 1977, this Morgan has been owned by the vendor for the last 32 years. In 1987 the car was restored at The Morgan Motor Factory which included a new aluminium body, wings and frame. In 1993 the engine was rebuilt by Techniques Morgan to 4.1 litre ‘blueprint’ fast road specification, an oil cooler and Kenlowe fan were also fitted together with a Harpers SS tuned exhaust system. The brakes have been upgraded as have the shock absorbers, new 15” alloy wheels have been fitted, along with a number of additional subtle improvements. This is a Morgan that certainly travels with alacrity. During his stewardship, the vendor has spent long periods working overseas which accounts for the low mileage; however the car has been professionally stored in his absence. Presenting in very good order, this Morgan is supplied with a hardtop, V5C registration document and a good history folder, together with a number of spare parts and the original 14” wheels and tyres. Without doubt this is an interesting Plus 8 that offers performance and handling second to none.

1974 Alpine Renault A110 1600S ‘1975 Targa Florio Entrant’ Transmission: manual Mileage: This Dieppe built 1600 S was delivered new to the Italian province of Palermo in 1974. Originally registered as ‘PA 413826’ chassis number 18351 was finished in Blanc Gardenia and was entered into the 1975 Targa Florio. Wearing race number 88 the Alpine was campaigned by O.Rubino and D.Vesco at the wheel, the pair placed an exceptional 23rd overall and 3rd in the 1.6 litre GT class. Its impressive participation is documented by period photographs and is featured in the book ‘Alpine Renault A110: Les Bleus Italiennes written by Francesco Panarotto’. Sold shortly after the race the Renault was acquired by an individual who stored the car for some 25 years. In 2000 the Alpine was purchased by a family who set about recommissioning the car. It was removed from storage and returned to running condition through a complete overhaul of the engine, gearbox, clutch and brakes. Over the course of the last twenty years, and until recently, it has been used sparingly, aside from the occasional excursion to ensure everything is in working order. At this time, the car received an FIA HTP with vintage racing in mind, but it has yet to compete in any events. As a proper Group 3 privateer sprint racer, it still retains its period Halda Tripmaster and is fitted with its original period roll cage. This Alpine was acquired by a former Le Mans team owner and driver in 2018 who spent a small fortune on various recommissioning. He reports that the Renault is huge amounts of fun when on cam - yet docile and easy to drive in town. It is exceptionally engaging! The history file that accompanies the car includes the aforementioned documentation from the FIA, the original Italian Libretto, photos of various recommissioning, the current UK registration document, many period photographs of the 1975 Targa Florio and sundry invoices from recent works. This UK road registered example is ready to be enjoyed on the sweeping country roads and could once again be a highly competitive entrant to a number of vintage events. With its compelling and detailed racing history we are sure the new custodian will have huge amounts of fun!Period photos courtesy of Actualfoto Interested parties should note that if this vehicle is purchased and registered in Europe, the vendor is willing to pay 5% of the final hammer price (Circa £5,750) as a gesture of goodwill to accommodate the EU Taxes that would be due on the vehicle.Interested parties should satisfy themselves as to the description and condition of each lot prior to the sale.

1908 De Dion-Bouton AL2 8hp Rear Entrance Tonneau Transmission: manual Mileage: The names of De Dion and Bouton are inextricably linked with the pioneer years of the motor car, initially in company with Trépardoux in the building of light steam carriages, the first of which appeared in 1883. In the early 1890s De Dion and Bouton turned their attention to the internal combustion engine, much to the annoyance of Trépardoux who quit in 1894, leaving his erstwhile partners to develop what was, in effect, the first high-speed internal combustion engine.Engineer Bouton's power units developed significantly greater output than their contemporaries from Daimler and Benz, yet matched them for reliability. Small wonder then that De Dion Bouton engines were adopted by many other manufacturers both in Europe and the United States. Early 137cc engines ran at speeds of up to 1,500rpm, and the first internal combustion-engined tricycles were built in 1895. The 250cc engine of 1896 developed approximately 1.75hp and made the contemporary Benz engines seem positively antiquated. Early De Dions were rear engined and of the vis-à-vis type – where the passengers sat facing the driver but from 1902 onwards a more conventional layout for a motor car was adopted, one of the first of this kind being the Type O. By this time, De Dion's fast-revving, single-cylinder engines were offered in 4 1/2hp, 6hp and 8hp variants. All featured mechanical inlet and atmospheric exhaust valves, and were noted for their reliability, which is borne out by the number surviving today.The De Dion offered here although registered on the V5 as a 1906 at present is verified by the Veteran Car Club of Great Britain as a 1908 example of the 8hp with desirable rear entrance door which, when new, we believe cost £208. With right hand drive and wheel steering, it represented De Dion-Bouton's latest thinking at the time of its introduction, embodying important developments in design, construction and coachwork in advance of the firm's earlier quadricycles. Presented in green coachwork with beige trim, this example was purchased by our vendor from the ex De Dion-Bouton Club Chairman and the history file includes details of both operating instructions and the model line ups from the era and the full report from the Veteran Car Club. Offered in very good order with a recently rebuilt engine this car has also known modifications including Zenith Carburettor and electric starter. A wonderful example of an iconic turn of the century vintage motorcar with the engine to which De Dion-Bouton made an inestimable contribution to the early development of the automobile.
