Lot 101

Items with a red lot number depict car and motorcycle lots, those in blue depict automobilia and lifestyle items.

Foreword We’re delighted to welcome you here today for our third Silverstone Classic Sale with once again, another impressive collection on offer.

I’m sure you’ll agree when you look through the pages of this catalogue that the portfolio includes a superb variety of competition cars, as well as a stunning range of classic road cars and some more modern sports offerings.

The sale really does promise to be one of the highlights of this year’s auction calendar and it’s rightly enjoying a growing reputation as a ‘must-attend’ event for any classic car collector.

Certainly, that’s how it should be when you’re hosting one of the main events of the weekend at the world’s largest classic motor racing festival.

Indeed, this weekend’s sale boasts more than 75 cars for you to enjoy, going back some 80 years. However, what’s just as impressive is the diversity of classic models on offer, reflecting not just Britain’s magnificent motoring heritage, but also that from across Europe and beyond.

Meanwhile, it’s only right that as we hold the auction at the home of British motorsport that many of the race cars being offered come with an exciting competition pedigree, having been put through their paces by some of the world’s best drivers around the most challenging circuits, including the world famous Goodwood Revival.

However, also adding to the auction’s appeal is an array of automobilia, as well as a lifestyle collection, including items such as fine wines and a significant collection of varied and rare watches.

So, whatever it is that tempts you, please don’t hesitate to talk with one of the team from Silverstone Auctions who will be delighted to answer any questions or provide any assistance you may require.

All that’s left for me to say is thank-you for attending today’s sale, I hope you enjoy it and are successful in securing the car or item of your dreams.

Happy bidding!

Lot 401>> 1969 Lotus Elan S4 Convertible The Silverstone Classic Sale

Lot 401

1969 Lotus Elan S4 Convertible Registration: HRO 670G Chassis Number: 45-8707 Engine Number: L181858 Estimate (£): 17,000 - 22,000

The Lotus Elan was first introduced in 1962 as a roadster and then as a coupé version in 1965. Over the years the Elan evolved into the Series 4, which was introduced in 1968. The S4 model benefited from a range of subtle upgrades along with the more noticeable upgraded bodyshell that was slightly thinner and lighter than the earlier S3’s. It also had flared wheel arches allowing for wider wheels.

The Elan was technically advanced with its twin-cam 1558cc engine, 4-wheel disc brakes and all independent suspension. It could reach 60mph in just 7.8 seconds and hit a top speed of 122mph. SE variants featured an increased power output of 118bhp and an upgraded close ratio gearbox. It is estimated that fewer than 1,200 of these cars remain on the roads today. The lightweight, powerful and agile performance make the Elan a great car to drive and even today there are few cars more satisfying to drive. w w w.sil ve r s to n eau c t i o ns.com

This particular Lotus Elan is a cabriolet S4, SE model that was first registered in 1969. Previously supplied by Paul Matty Sportscars in 2005, the car has passed through just two hands since this time.

Throughout its life this Elan has benefited from consistent maintenance which has included a replacement chassis and a full engine rebuild by Oselli Power. More recently, the car has received further significant work including a full respray in the original yellow colour, along with the fitment of a new hood, windscreen and professionally refurbished wheels.

Accompanying the car is a history file, which includes many invoices from marque specialists, including invoices from the renowned specialist Paul Matty Sportscars dating back to 1990, along with previous service records, MoTs, and an original owner’s manual.

As a result of this Elans continuous restoration work it is presented in truly lovely condition. This car is ready to be enjoyed all summer long whilst the fitment of the new roof allows you to keep dry through all those summer showers!

Lot 402>> 1942 Ford Jeep

One of the most likely origins of the word ‘jeep’ was from the Popeye cartoon series. Eugene the Jeep was his “jungle pet”, small and able to solve impossible problems. At the time as war raged in Europe the earliest Jeeps formed a lasting impression on the American soldier which helped the adoption of the term Jeep.

As the war progressed Willys produced over 300,000 Jeeps.

Ford were drafted in to boost production and contributed over 250,000 units. Ford Jeeps were recognizable by their pressed steel grilles as opposed to the Willys slat grille style.

Considering how the Jeep was conceived and its role in warfare it is remarkable that some of the finest classic car collections will always include a Willys or Ford WWII Jeep.

1942 Ford Jeep Registration: OSU 586 Chassis Number: Not Specified Engine Number: Not Specified Estimate (£): 12,500 - 15,000

many Jeeps were given over to farming after the war as Britain needed to get agricultural production back on track. Jeeps were capable of pulling most equipment of the period. Now fully restored this a veteran of The Goodwood Revival where Jeeps have a ‘go anywhere status,’ which in itself is priceless. These Jeeps are very spritely with the ‘Go Devil’ 2.2 petrol engine and they handle surprisingly well.

There are very few vehicles that can ‘cut the mustard’ at any Blue Riband event for this outlay quite like a WWII Jeep . . . . . . book your weekend at the Revival and get your screen passes!

Even more impressive was the time taken from concept to production of a design that has stood the test of time and become an unlikely motoring icon. From tenders being sent out, to a production run took less than two hundred days. The cast was set for a deciding factor which influenced the outcome over the next five years, this was Americas’ ability to produce in vast numbers well designed hardware for the war effort.

On offer today is a 1942 Ford WWII Jeep that spent most of its life on a West Country farm. This is not surprising as

running repairs being undertaken throughout its life to keep it road worthy and running.

First registered March 1967, KDD 400E is an example of one of the very last MkI Lotus Cortinas since production ceased in April 1967. Purchased by our vendor in 1973 the car has been in single ownership for the past 40 years.

Used regularly following our vendors purchase in 1973 it was taken off the road in 1979 to have the engine overhauled with a re-bore of 60 thou and at the same time the front top struts were plated. It was not until 1989 that the car was put back on the road and used again before being dry stored from 1994 - 1997. It was used sparingly until family commitments meant the car was laid to rest for a third time in 2001. When in dry storage the car was regularly turned over and the oil was replaced to make sure it did not mechanically deteriorate. It did not emerge from hibernation until this year and it was then re-commissioned to make it road worthy again. The brakes where overhauled with new calipers and a repair was made to the right jacking point to enable it to pass its current MOT. Inside it is fantastically original and well preserved with the seats showing no signs of tearing. An original factory inspection ticket was even found under the carpet in the driver’s foot well.

The lower section of the car was repainted in 1968 and at time of purchase the speedo was replaced with the previous one showing approximately 27,000 miles, the replacement speedo is now showing just 25,000 miles, many previous MOTs supporting this mileage. The car, we are told, has remained largely original since then with

Presented with Tax and MoT until May 2014 the car is once again in roadworthy condition, however it is now showing signs of its age and is cosmetically wanting, due to various years and periods of dry storage. The original paintwork is starting to look flat and the lower section that was repainted in 1968 has started to fade.

The engine for the Lotus Cortina began its life in 1961 when Colin Chapman commissioned a twin-cam version of the Ford Kent engine and bored it out to give 1,558cc.

The model was to dominate saloon car racing for the Ford factory as it evolved throughout the 1960s. It was driven by many stars of the day, including the legendary Jim Clark.

Lot 404>> 1969 Porsche 912

Lot 404

This Porsche 912 was manufactured in 1969, exported to the United States and sold new by Porsche Cars, Nevada.

It is believed that the car remained in the dry states of Nevada and California during its first 28 years in the USA. In November 1997 the car was imported into the United Kingdom and a three year restoration was started. The vehicle was bare metal painted in light ivory from its original colour of Bahama Yellow. There are a large number

Registration: VVK 117G Chassis Number: 129022854 Engine Number: 4095996 Estimate (ÂŁ): 18,000 - 22,000

of invoices in the history file for work carried out during the restoration and for other work over the last 17 years.

Specifically, there are invoices for the following: engine, gearbox, brakes, upholstery, interior trim, exterior trim, electrical wiring, exhaust, heat exchangers and general maintenance. There are also MoT test certificates from 1999 until today, showing the car has only covered 8,000 miles in the 14 years since the restoration was completed. There is also a State of California registration document, State of California vehicle test certificates and Porsche heritage certificate confirming the chassis and engine numbers.

Supplied in superb driving order, this little Porsche offers all of the style and sophistication of an early 911 for a fraction of the cost, in this the 50th anniversary of the model. w w w .silver s toneauc t ions.com

The Silverstone Classic Sale

The year after production of the legendary 911 had commenced in 1964, Porsche introduced the similarly bodied 912 as an entry level model to the prestigious German marque. As such, it shared its monocoque steel chassis with that of the 911, together with independent front torsion bar and trailing arm rear suspension with all-round disc brakes. At the 912’s heart, however, was a 1,582cc flat four cylinder engine - rather than the 911’s 1,991cc six cylinder unit.

This car was first registered in September 2001 and has covered just 11,000 miles from new with 4 owners. It has benefitted from a 190bhp engine upgrade and is a VHPD engine with oil cooler fitted and a full service history.

The Silverstone Classic Sale 34

The Lotus 340R was introduced by Lotus in 2000 as a limited edition unique Elise based sports car for the track, but eligible also for use on the road. It received a fantastic national and specialist press at the time, rewriting the levels of performance and road holding for a standard road car at the time. Limited to just 340 units globally, it showcased Lotus’s engineering prowess and all cars were sold out within a month of launch.

Additionally it has 4 point harnesses, carbon wings, cross drilled discs, adjustable shock absorbers, stainless steel exhaust and rare ‘Tecnomagnesio’ wheels.

Now ready for the Summer, it offers a rare chance to enjoy Lotus open top motoring with a highly collectable and appreciating modern classic.

This is a 1938 Coventry Climax F.S.M type Series 2 fire trailer with a single-stage centrifugal 241gpm light fire pump. It is driven by a 4-stroke, 4-cylinder water-cooled 748cc petrol engine petrol and was designed in conjunction with the Home Office and is typical of the many hundreds built at the outbreak of World War 2. Few of these pre-war trailer pumps now exist - it is thought that this figure may number less than a dozen.

The Silverstone Classic Sale

No. 1620 was in service for the Kesteven Fire Brigade (now Lincolnshire Fire & Rescue) until the late 1960’s when she was sold off to a private collector. Showing no sign of rot, she has been dry-stored since then. Though not having been fired up recently, the engine cranks over well and shows plenty of compression. She comes complete with hydrant stand pipe, water filters, both brass and wicker, six hoses, a brass hose head and original owner’s manual. Towing beautifully, this really is the vehicle for the collector who has everything! Sold unreserved and in original unrestored order - this is a big boys toy fit for a comprehensive nut-and-bolt rebuild or to be enjoyed as is.

With much added value for sheer rarity this could prove a very wise investment...

Registration: LLH 853D Chassis Number: WA252-790040 Engine Number: 9WRWH-29073 Estimate (£): 10,000 - 14,000

In 1966 Heinz Foods Ltd held a competition for the chance to win one of 57 very special cars. Crayford Engineering was commissioned by Heinz Foods to specially produce 57 convertible versions of the Wolseley Hornet. Half of the cars were Toga White and half were Birch Grey. The cars were all supplied with special extras including picnic set, radio, electric kettle, tartan rug and even a sliding Max Factor make-up tray under the dash panel. These cars were totally unique to the competition. All were first registered LLH ***D to Heinz Foods.

There is a Heinz 57 Register which has details of the surviving cars. Please see http://www. crayfordconvertibleclub.com/heinz-57-prize-cars/theheinz-57-story.html http://www.crayfordconvertibleclub. com/heinz-57-prize-cars/the-prize-car-register.html

w w w.sil ve r s to n eau c t i o ns.com

LLH 853D was won in the competition by Mrs Wyn Foot who lived near Southampton, it was Mrs Foot’s one and only car, she learnt to drive in it and had it all her life. The car has never been fully restored but has had sympathetic maintenance over the years including new front wings and sills whilst in the Foot family ownership. When she passed away her family kept it until 2004 when her daughter sold it to the present owner.

We are informed that the car was on display at The Haynes Motor Museum in 2009 as part of the events celebrating the 50th anniversary of the Mini. The car remains in superb overall condition and is MOT’d until June 2014. It is sold complete with the special extras and a substantial history file including letters to Mrs Foot from Heinz Foods notifying her of her lucky win. There are also pictures of her being presented with the car, copies of competition entry forms, list of prize-winners, the old log book, newspaper cuttings etc in the history file. Very few of these Heinz Hornets have a full ownership history back to the original prize-winners as this one has, with its rarity value and transparent history file going back to day one we expect a huge amount of interest in this fascinating little motor car.

Lot 408 >> 1990 Lister Jaguar XJ-S 7.0-Litre Le Mans Cabriolet

Lister is one of the most renowned names in sports car racing history, the Lister-Jaguar, designed by Brian Lister, swept almost all before it during its first full racing season in 1957. Then in recent years cars bearing the Lister name have been a major force in GT racing worldwide. From the early 1980s the name has also graced some of the world’s fastest road cars, after an agreement first with BLE Automotive and then WP Automotive we saw highly modified XJ-S models marketed as Lister-Jaguars.

The car has featured in various motoring journals including Autocar and Jaguar Quarterly while the Lister’s 200mph top speed also earned it a place in the record books. Having spent five years of its life with the first private owner, during which time the engine was upgraded, in January 1996 it returned to Lister, and was used as personal transport for

Re-sprayed last year, the Lister is finished in blue with blue-piped cream Connolly hide interior, the car also features Recaro seating and a ‘200mph’ speedometer. This rare British supercar is offered with the old-style logbook, service booklet, DVLA owners list, sundry invoices, some expired MoT certificates, Swansea V5C document and a current MoT. Currently displaying a total of only 23,961 miles on the odometer, this represents a great opportunity to own a unique car with exceptional specification and history.

This Lister Jaguar is the first of only five that were manufactured in 1990 using brand new XJ-S Convertibles as the basis. The car is powered by a Lister-converted 7.0-litre V12 engine equipped with twin Albrecht mechanically driven superchargers. Its stupendous power 604bhp- is transmitted via a Ferrari clutch and a five-speed manual transmission to oversize (335x30x18) Goodyear F1 tyres. Almost certainly the most powerful British passenger car at the time of its construction, the Lister cost a staggering £167,000 when new, getting on for five times the price of the donor XJ-S!

This superb left hand drive ‘Big Healey’ 3000 was despatched to California in September of 1962 and repatriated to the UK where it was fully restored by marque specialist Murray Scott Nelson and registered to them on the 1st of October 2002. It then entered the long term custodianship of its next owner on the 4th of October 2002.

The restoration was of a most exacting ‘rotisserie’ standard and photos of this restoration are contained in the file.

The car presents in excellent all around condition 10 years and 7000 miles later. The present condition is partly due to the quality of the restoration and partly due to the car residing in Spain for most of the last 10 years before entering a private Belgian collection. The car was driven from Belgium to the UK and this sale today and the car performed well with the overdrive feature on the gearbox w w w.sil ve r s to n eau c t i o ns.com

providing relaxed high speed cruising on the 400 mile trip.

The underside of the car is in magnificent structural condition and a testament to the quality of the restoration.

The trim is in very fine condition and the weather gear is ‘as new’. Chrome wire wheels are in excellent condition and complete a really beautiful car.

A rare car superbly restored by a renowned marque and ready to enjoy.

Lot 410 >> 1996 Ford Mondeo Touring Car

Built in 1996 by Andy Rouse Engineering this car was raced in the Czech Republic Touring Car Championship by Josef Kopecký for Ford Rasino Brno. The car proved its worth straight away by finishing 4th in the 1996 Championship and continued its success by finishing 3rd in both the 1997 and 1998 Czech Republic Touring Car Championship. The car was then sold to France where it was very competitive in European hill climbs before eventually finding its way back to the UK.

1996 Ford Mondeo Touring Car Registration: Not Specified Chassis Number: 96001 Engine Number: Not Specified Estimate (£): 40,000 - 45,000

Presented in great overall condition the car will need some re-commissioning to bring it back to its full potential.

Fitted with a 2 litre V6 engine, that has seen only 9 hours of running time, it is mated to an XTRAC 206 six speed sequential gearbox and controlled by a Zytec management system. So this car could be a real weapon in the right hands.

With the recent and much talked about return of the Super Touring Car Championship this Andy Rouse Engineering built car is a fantastic opportunity to rub wheels with the best of them in what is fast becoming one of the most exciting race series there is. You’ll be able to see for yourself how exciting it is on the weekend of the Silverstone Classic since it looks like being one of the most popular races, but be careful not to miss the auction!

Ford ran a factory-sponsored team, called Ford Team Mondeo, for eight seasons. As mentioned above, Andy Rouse Engineering, under the expert supervision of head engineer Vic Drake, ran the cars from 1993 to 1995. West Surrey Racing then ran the team from 1996 to 1998, with Prodrive finally taking over at the beginning of 1999. The team continued the domination that was started by Andy Rouse Engineering and went on to finish the 2000 season with a 1-2-3 (Menu-Reid-Rydell) in the drivers’ standings and also winning the Manufacturers’ Championship by a staggering 104 points. A complete overhaul of the BTCC following the 2000 season, this saw the Super Touring regulations scrapped as the series moved towards lighter and less expensive race cars that were based on compact car chassis and not family saloons. Ford withdrew from BTCC competition prior to 2001.

1981 Porsche 924 Carrera GT Registration: YLV 533W Chassis Number: WPOZZ93ZBN700393 Engine Number: 31500284 Estimate (£): 19,000 - 23,000

Porsche wanted to enter the Group 4 Sports Car Class for Le Mans in 1980 and base the car on their successful 924 mainstream model. The left hand drive versions were labelled 937 while the right hand drive was 938. All nonessential elements were removed from the car in an effort to reduce weight. The vehicle was subsequently entered into the gruelling 24 Hours of Le Mans but in order to comply with homologation regulations road going versions had to be produced. Porsche answered this rule with the Carrera GT which produced 210 bhp. Standard specification included a close ratio dog leg 5 speed G/box, LSD, Bilstein shock absorbers, polyurethane plastic front and rear flared guards, a polyurethane plastic front spoiler, and a bonnet mounted air scoop for the intercooler. With a 2 litre turbo charged engine producing 210 bhp, it will reach a top speed of 150 mph and has a 0 - 60 time of 6.5 seconds.

w w w.sil ve r s to n eau c t i o ns.com

This particular car is 1 of only 75 right hand drives that were ever manufactured; a genuine GT chassis number will contain ‘93ZBN7 within the number. The 7 after the N means that it is a 937 model - Porsches designation for the 924 Carrera GT. Following the N7 will be 00 and then the numbers 051 to 450. This particular car is 393, making the full chassis number WPOZZZ93ZBN700393, and was supplied new by JCT 600 of Leeds on the 20th of February 1981.

We are informed by the vendor that this very special Porsche drives without fault, the mileage of just under 80,000 miles is genuine and supported by service documentation and previous MOT certificates. All electrics work perfectly and the steering and suspension are both tight and firm, all fluid levels are correct, clean and fresh and all coolant hoses are soft and supple. The 16’’ Fuch alloys are in excellent condition and shod with excellent tyres all round. Importantly the car has had a recent major service which included a cambelt change and a new MOT carried out by a recognised independent Porsche specialist who also reported the car to be in excellent order.

The 924 Carrera GT is a very rare and special motor car, in recent years the prices of these has risen substantially and as such this represents a unique opportunity to own one of the rarest Porsche motor cars in the UK.

Lot 412 >> 1965 Mini Cooper MK1

The vendor informs us of a full photographically documented record of the removal of all the parts, this was painstakingly done over a period of two years.

The attention to detail in the rebuild of this car is truly staggering. The restoration was to original factory specification, a full description of this restoration is available in an album that has been put together by the vendor (available to view at the auction and included with the Lot). ‘FPX 389C’ was subject to a ground up restoration retaining the original body shell and body number, but with almost all the other panels being renewed with new parts. (Bonnet; wings; front panels; A - panels; inner and outer sills; boot lid; door skins, full floor replacement).

The bodywork was completely re worked to very highest standard including the trial fitting of all the panels prior

to painting. The underside of this Mini Cooper is every bit as good as on the top being fully painted and detailed throughout, the interior has been completely retrimmed to the very highest standard.

Many new parts have gone into this restoration including a new rear sub-frame, the front sub-frame has been stripped rebuilt and painted. The braking system has been completely upgraded to Cooper S spec with larger discs and callipers to the front and bigger drums to the rear; the list really does go on. From our past experience show winning Mini Coopers do not remain unsold for very long, so if you are looking for a stunning example with great investment prospects - then this is the one for you. It really is a turn-key completed project. So there is nothing to do other than enjoy this ‘Mini Adventure’ and admire the attention to detail that has been put into this beautiful restoration. w w w .silver s toneauc t ions.com

Designed as project ADO15 (Austin Drawing Office project number 15), the Mini came about because of the fuel shortage caused by the 1956 Suez Crisis. Petrol was once again rationed in the UK, sales of large cars slumped but the market for German ‘bubble’ cars boomed. Leonard Lord, the somewhat autocratic head of BMC, reportedly detested these cars so much that he vowed to rid the streets of them and design a ‘proper miniature car’. Built on the 4th of May 1965, finished in Tweed Grey with an Old English White Roof, FPX 389C was supplied by Wadhams Limited of Chichester and was issued with a West Sussex registration mark.

1970 Jaguar E-Type Series II Roadster Registration: Unreg’d Chassis Number: 1R12035 Engine Number: 7R9743 Estimate (£): 50,000 - 60,000

This 1970 Series II E-Type Roadster finished in the unusual, yet very period Ascot Fawn colour, is worthy of a second look. Boasting a claimed sub-23,000 miles from new and reputedly having had only two owners in its lifetime, this left-hand drive car has clearly been cherished and saved from the molestation which often comes through poor restoration or unnecessary upgrades.

Retaining its original and correct six-cylinder 4.2litre engine, which again portrays all the signs of limited use but consistent care, the power plant fired up easily and held good oil pressure. The gear change was precise and steering accurate on our short test drive, however we would recommend to any future buyer that they budget for a new clutch in the next few thousand miles as the biting point is quite high. That aside, she’s mechanically sound.

w w w.sil ve r s to n eau c t i o ns.com

The Ascot Fawn paint is not for everybody but it is refreshingly unusual to see this colour on an E-Type. It was repainted in 2012 before export to the UK and this was done to a high standard and is in keeping with the patina of the car’s interior. We would however recommend ‘flatting back’ this fresh paint in order to lose that ‘enamel’ look that comes with fresh paint. The black leather interior and carpets are in honest and usable condition, but not vying for the attention of any concours judges. The soft-top hood is in very good order and provides a great fit - something not easy to achieve! The car does have a tonneau for when the hood is down, but one may choose to replace this as its aged more harshly than the rest of the car.

Imported from the USA in September of 2012 but with full EU taxes paid, this car has American title and a full UK MoT to February 2014 making it ready for registration.

1933 Lancia Astura (second series) Drophead Coupé by Pinin Farina Registration: 326 YUP Chassis Number: 30-2091 Engine Number: 1094 Estimate (£): 95,000 - 110,000

Lancia introduced the Series One Astura at the Paris Motor Show in 1931 to replace the highly successful Lambda model. It was produced as a Series One, Two, Three and Four models until 1939. This is one of just 750 Series Two models made in total. They were all fitted with a new V8 engine of 2600cc producing 72bhp. This drop head coupé model is very rare, which is particularly relevant when one considers a saloon recently made £230,000 in auction!

The history file confirms that 1099 was the production number of this car, it then became chassis #30-2091 and engine number 1094, making it a ‘matching numbers’ car.

The original date of sale was 18th May 1933 when it was sent to Pinin Farina for its handmade, drop head coupé body conversion that it still carries to the present day. The car was supplied new to Baron De Gunzburg, a Russian national, who was living in Petersburg. It then remained w w w.sil ve r s to n eau c t i o ns.com

in Holland and title passed to the Suiker brothers of Amsterdam (thought to be from the garage that belonged to the Baron) in 1956. The car was enjoyed by them until being sold to a Mr.Takken (of Vintage and Veteran cars in Haarlem), a noted Dutch dealer. Our vendor purchased the car from them in February 1968. Included in the sale were the original owner’s manual, instruction book and a complete Lancia parts list that had been published in March 1932.

Our vendor then enjoyed the car for 2 years whilst searching for parts throughout Europe in order to fully restore the car. He tells us that major restoration work commenced in 1972 when the engine was rebuilt, including a fresh bore of the cylinders, new crankshaft bearings, timing and water pump chains (along with new water and oil pumps) and also all the valve mechanism was overhauled completely. Finally a new stainless steel exhaust pipes and mufflers were fitted.

Additionally, the suspension (including front oil shock absorbers and rear mechanical shock absorbers that are controlled by oil pressure), axles, clutch and the gearbox were all rebuilt and the car was also re-wired at this time. During 1978 the bodywork was stripped back and repainted and the interior completely re-trimmed with new leather and carpets. This work was done by Dutch

specialists who benefitted from the guidance and help of the European Lancia cognoscenti of the day.

Subsequently the car has been regularly used on trips around most of Europe and has given the owner, a distinguished and noted major Lancia collector/enthusiast, a great deal of pleasure. Now ready for its next chapter, this historically significant and highly collectable Lancia is a fantastic opportunity in to pre-war vintage car ownership.

The amazing and thoroughly exotic Ferrari Testarossa was first introduced as a 5.0 litre, 12 cylinder mid-engined sportscar in 1984. It was the successor to the Berlinetta Boxer. Instantly successful worldwide, the car then went on to have various derivatives - the 512TR and F512M, but it is the original cars with the ‘twin mirrors’ (produced between 1987 and 1991) that are now recognised as the most collectable and rare. With 440bhp and 500 newton/metres of torque, 0 - 60 came in just 4.7 seconds pushing on to a top speed of 196mph.

This original UK supplied car was first registered on 17th March 1987 to Mr Stephen Barratt of the Jaguar specialists SNG Barratt. D450 OOP was used sparingly by its first owner and found its way to the current owner in the late 1980 at a time when Testarossas were selling for in excess of £150,000. The original service booklet w w w.sil ve r s to n eau c t i o ns.com

details early expenditure up until 2003, when the car was serviced by Graypaul. From 2003 until 2013, the vendor had chassis number 069133 professionally stored in a heated environment. In ten years, the car covered a mere 500 miles but was regularly started and warmed up. Now reading only 22,700 miles, there are very few cars that have covered such low miles and are in such original, unrestored condition.

Finished in the best colour combination of Rosso Corsa with cream interior, this Testarossa was the subject of significant recommissioning with marque specialists Monza Automotive in March 2013. Included in these recent works was a full ‘engine-out’ cambelt service, brake overhaul, window motor recommissioning and numerous other jobs that are detailed on the invoice. There are a number of pictures available that show the level of work carried out, along with a bill for over £5,000.

Closer to the auction, this car will be delivered to Terry Keys Ferrari specialists, where a full condition report will be available to perspective clients. Undoubtedly, chassis number 069133 makes an excellent investment opportunity as Testarossas of this quality become harder to find.

A solid donor shell was sourced and fully stripped for the build; the shell was subsequently given to Brewster Motor Company in Galley Wood, where it was fitted with new sills, new floor pan sections, and then repainted in a beautiful high gloss black, photos of which are included in the substantial history.

The rears are 9’’ drums whilst the fronts are P16 callipers with vented discs and Mintex pads, Gartrac biased pedal box and master cylinders all work together perfectly and are beautifully balanced. To complete the set up a Burton performance exhaust system has been fitted and adds a glorious note to the running of the car Aldridge Trimming were tasked with bringing the interior back to life and the deletion of the rear seats certainly gives the car a unique appearance.

1969 Jaguar E-Type Fixedhead Coupé Series II Registration: Unreg’d Chassis Number: 1R26715 Engine Number: 7R120419 Estimate (£): 30,000 - 35,000

Series 2 Jaguar E-Types that were produced from 1969 to 1971 can be identified by their open headlights that no longer have glass covers, a wrap-around rear bumper, re-positioned and larger front indicators that have moved under the heavier bumpers and the tail lights which also moved below the rear bumper. The cooling is much improved helped by the enlarged ‘mouth’, Series 2 cars also feature twin electric fans and finally uprated brakes.

The engine is easily identified by the change from smooth polished cam covers to ones with a ribbed appearance, yet the original triple SU carburettors remain. The interior and dashboard were also redesigned with flick switches being substituted by rocker switches to meet U.S regulations. This striking fixed-head E Type Coupé has a certain look about it. It sits really well in an almost poised fashion and has a character that many imported cars lack. The car is reported to have had only three owners from new and has seemingly travelled just 52,500 miles in its time. w w w.sil ve r s to n eau c t i o ns.com

Though a little thick in places, the Carmen Red paint is completed to a high finish. Were it mine I’d mop the paint back to curb any of the orange peel effect that may follow. The chrome-work is in all round good condition, and the door, bonnet and boot shuts are excellent. The interior is absolutely as original though perhaps looking a little untidy in places. Again, were it mine I’d consider recolonising the seats to preserve its current patina.

Mechanically, the car behaves very well. The matching numbers engine sounds strong, shows good pressure and is a pleasure to drive. This is perhaps in part due to the addition of triple SU carburettors which improve the pick-up and performance greatly. There is lots of history that accompanies this car, most notably, a host of invoices relating to restorative works from 1996 - 2000. More than $30,000 was spent in this period and the result is very pleasing. Most recently, new wire wheels and tyres and been fitted.

Imported from the USA in September of 2012 but with full EU taxes paid, this car has American title and a full UK MoT to February 2014 making it ready for registration.

The iconic car was used by factory workers to travel around the sprawling plant until being ‘dumped’ by workers in the secret tunnel following damage to it when a storage container fell on it. However, photos of the famous ‘lost’ Mini, renowned amongst the work force, emerged last year when it was then saved by a former employee who received permission to remove it in 2012. This was just prior to the tunnel being filled in for development work that was due to take place on the site. It then became the legendary ‘last Mini’ to ever leave the site.

It has been presented at shows and concours events, and won the Stanford Hall Concours event, where the car scored an incredible 134/140.

The original windscreen is still present with its factory sticker still attached.

Inside the car is equally as good as the outside and is in pristine and unrestored condition. The blue seats are still well sprung, the door cards spotless and seemingly new, the steering wheel unworn or marked and all the wood trim in great order.

The Falcon-Knight was produced between 1927 and 1928

by The Willys-Overland Company of Toledo, Ohio. The cars were well received with a remarkable reputation for allaround performance and the sales were notably high.

The Falcon-Knight was intended to fit in pricewise between the Willys Whippet and larger Willys Knight ranges and was priced $1250, $100 less than the Willys Knight. A six cylinder Knight sleeve valve engine powered it. Except for the engine much of the car is actually the same as the Model 93A Whippet, with many parts being interchangeable. In January 1928, a new Model 12 was announced with mainly cosmetic changes. The last cars were made in March 1929 after which the plant made truck parts.

It was showing just 28,000 miles on the clock and completely original with its factory tool kit and handbook still intact. It was then sold on to a gentleman for use as a wedding car, however this didn’t happen and it was sold to an engineer who intended to restore the Knight back to its former glory.

It was to sit untouched, now showing 37,000 miles, for 25 years until 1996 when the Falcon-Knight was sold to a neighbour who embarked on fully restoring the car until its completion in 2001. It was used regularly as the owner’s pride and joy until it was sold to an English gentleman and shipped to the UK. It was then purchased by our vendor shortly after in 2006 and has since seen little usage, hence the reason for the sale.

Lot 426 >> The ex Enid Blyton - 1969 Fiat 500 Gamine ‘Noddy Car’ by Vignale

Frixos Demetriou was a successful casino owner in Cyprus and the owner of the Olympic gaming club in London.

While in Milan by chance when a flight to Athens was diverted he spotted an unusual looking car by the airport and on inquiry discovered that it was a Fiat Gamine Vignale.

The Gamine was a small two seat roadster produced by Carozzeria Vignale from 1967 to 1971 based on the Fiat 500 platform using the 2-cylinder air cooled engine from the 500 sport. Demetriou was looking to diversify his business interests and sensing an opportunity he returned via Turin, securing the rights to sell Vignale products in the UK. He bought 200 cars up front paying with cash and committed to buy the next 6 months production if Vignale would manufacture the car in right hand drive form. The Gamine two-seater was well received, becoming trendy with the Chelsea set - even night-club owner Peter Stringfellow had one.

1980 Aston Martin V8 Saloon Registration: OPW 20 Chassis Number: V8SOR/12264 Engine Number: V580/2264S Estimate (£): 36,000 - 42,000

As Adam Trowler of Classic Cars magazine recounts in the February issue of the same magazine, ‘the early Seventies were halcyon days for those faced with the decision of which grand tourer to buy’. The Aston Martin V8 is undoubtedly the top of the list. As Adam recognises, it’s the car your Father wants you to buy, it screams ‘I’ve arrived’ it looks beautiful, it’s fast and just maybe, your wife might like it’. It’s the easy choice...

Chassis #12264 has formed part of a significant private collection since 1994 and has always retained UK Registration, the desirable plate ‘OPW 20’ being offered with this lot. It is the 5340cc V8 engine variant with weber carburettors and three-speed Automatic gearbox. Having been only lightly used in the past number of years, the current mileage is showing just 70,000 believed genuine miles in the hands of only seven owners, the last since 1994. w w w.sil ve r s to n eau c t i o ns.com

The blue metallic paint which is in all round good patinated condition which could benefit from some light attention to areas around the bonnet shuts and on the front lower grille. The chromework is very good and the saddle leather interior is a pleasing contrast to the blue paint.

The leather has aged very well, though the driver’s seat bolster does need repadding. Prior to auction the car is being freshly MoT’d, the exhaust is being refastened as one of the brackets has come lose and the engine will be thoroughly checked and given a full bill of health. When we drove the car, albeit very briefly, the engine started and sounded healthy, the gears engaged smoothly and the car pulled away without hesitation and stopped accurately. In our opinion, because it has had relatively little use in the past years, the car would benefit from being driven some distance to blow some air through and let the engine stretch its legs. After the engine has received the all clear, this will be done.

The original wheels which have some slight surface corrosion are being removed and refurbished ahead of the sale and the whole car will be fully detailed at a cost of over £1,000 before the viewing begins. With appreciation for Aston Martin at an all-time high, if you want to share in the Centenary celebrations with a more modest budget than that of any DB4, 5 or 6, these V8’s are the unsung heroes which are worthy of your attention.

Lot 428 >> 1963 Jaguar E-Type FHC

The Jaguar E-Type was introduced in March 1961 at the Geneva Motor Show to worldwide acclaim. The car was produced initially as a fixed head Coupé and a soft top convertible, both with a 3.8 litre straight six engine. A pre-production car won its first race at Oulton Park in May 1961, driven by Graham Hill and the rest of E-Type history became part of a now well-known legend. When first seen

by Enzo Ferrari he commented it was:’ the most beautiful car in the world’.

We understand that the car had minimal use and shortly after its completion it was shipped to the UK circa 2007, where again it had very little use before finding its way to our current vendor. As the vendor is busy with countless other XK projects this E-Type once again has found itself unused and looking for a new home.

Retaining much of its standard appearance this car would be ideal for road rallies such as the Tour Britannia, as it’s

been built for speed but with comfort and usability in mind. With a superb history file and minimal use this car is a great opportunity to purchase a real driver’s E-type that is equally at home on the roads as it is on the race track. w w w .silver s toneauc t ions.com

The E-Type offered here is a super example having been subject to a full rebuild to fast road/light race specification.

The car had an extensive build to its current specification in the USA to a high standard, as can be seen in the vast history file, and no bolt was left unturned. The car features beautiful aluminium work in rear of car enclosing fuel cell, an on board fire system, battery box, and rear brake cooling.

Lot 429

1964 Alfa Romeo Giulia Spider 1600 Registration: XFX633B Chassis Number: AR379887 Engine Number: AR00112 45484 Estimate (£): 30,000 -35,000

The initial 750 Series Giulietta chassis featured independent front suspension with a coil-sprung live rear axle and drum brakes all round. The engine, like the suspension, owed much to Alfa’s racing experience, hence the ability of the twin-cam four cylinder unit to produce 65bhp from just 1,290cc.

Major changes appeared in 1959 with the 101 Series.

Though outwardly similar, the 1,290cc engine was strengthened, while the bodies received minor detail alterations. The final change came in 1962 when the renamed Giulia models appeared with five-speed gearboxes and a 92bhp, 1,570cc version of the twin-cam engine.

This is a very rare original left-hand drive example and was manufactured on 28th August 1964 and delivered to

Newark Garage, U.S.A. It was purchased by its first owner and cherished until 1987, when it was placed in a dry storage facility and left untouched for 20 years. Evidently, the original owner moved around America during his life and there is a complete set of original U.S.A title certificates from 1970, 1972 and 1987, detailing the life of this little Spider.

This Giulia was then purchased many years later by a restoration specialist who set about a ground up restoration on the car. Pictures and invoices can be found in the history file, along with an Alfa Romeo Automobilismo Storico letter of authenticity confirming this car’s build date and matching engine number.

The current owner imported this Alfa Romeo and finished the restoration with Thames Motor Company, before UK registration on 9th October 2012. The current car is in lovely condition and has a current MoT so it is ready for sunny summer motoring. It is also supplied with wet weather gear, superb hood and a further letter of authenticity from the Alfa Romeo Owner’s Club.

Very rarely do you find an original 64’ Spider still with its original engine and with only 2 documented owners from new.

Styling of the MG SV-R was by the world renowned designer Peter Stevens. Built on a lightweight steel chassis, which has integral roll over bar protection to FIA standards, the SV-R has a chassis clothed in a very lightweight and advanced carbon fibre body that is made up from over 3,000 separate pieces of carbon fibre material. This was made and cut to size in the UK before shipment to Italy where each part was laid in moulds before being ‘cooked’ to form the rigid sections that were then bonded or bolted together to form the complete body.

Finished in Sunshine Yellow, the car even appeared on Tonight with Trevor McDonald with the current owner and has been featured in Classic Cars Magazine. Supplied with UK V5C registration document, original order form and MG X-Power spec sheet, this highly collectable MG is a must for any collector.

This MG SV was the first production car off the MG factory line and was sold new to its first and only owner, after a visit to the Motor Show in 2003. A deposit was taken at the show and the current owner has cherished the car ever since. BX53 BGY has covered only 13,500 miles from new w w w .silver s toneauc t ions.com

The chassis, made in Italy, was fully built up before the body was attached, then the mechanically complete cars were finished in the UK. The engine remained the same 5.0 litre all-alloy V8 engines with twin cams per bank and four valves per cylinder that deliver 380bhp in base SV-R format.

The gearbox is a 5 speed manual, with only a couple of automatic versions made. The collapse of MG Rover saw the early demise of MG Sport and Racing, the subsidiary of MG Rover responsible for the MG SV after only around 50 cars of all variants were made.

1973 Surtees TS 15 F2 Registration: Not Specified Chassis Number: TS-15-F2 Engine Number: Not Specified Estimate (£): 65,000 - 75,000

Motorcycle and Formula One World Champion legend, John Surtees, formed the Surtees Racing Organisation in 1970 following an illustrious and highly successful driving career. The team, based in Edenbridge, Kent, was to compete competitively up until 1978.

Being ambitious they competed in Formula 5000, Formula 2 and Formula 1 both as a constructor and entrant.

Their best season coming in 1972 when motorcycling and driving legend, Mike Hailwood, won the Formula 2 European Championship. Off the back of that strong result achieved in their TS10, ambitions and hopes were high for their ‘73 car - the TS 15. However, March stole the show by agreeing with BMW a solus supply deal on their M12 two litre Formula 2 engine which was to dominate the series, surpassing the hitherto highly successful Ford 2.0 Cosworth BDA/BDG. w w w.sil ve r s to n eau c t i o ns.com

This 1973 car is a rare survivor of that era that was run in period by Bob Gerrard (driven by Bob Salisbury) and has been professionally prepared by Damax Racing to a very high standard indeed. Today it has a 2.0 Ford BDG engine that was freshly built in 2012 to the ultimate specification

by Ridgeway Racing Engines, the dyno sheet confirming 285bhp on tap. Unusually it has a Hewland FG400 gearbox, more normally reserved for highly powerful Formula 1 cars of this era, making it a very ‘bullet proof’ and reliable specification. Carrying full FIA/HTP papers this car is eligible for, and welcome in, all European single seater series throughout the world today. It is a rare, reliable, competitive and beautifully presented package that allows exclusive access in to Historic single seater racing today.

It is not often that a Mk 1 Twin-Cam of this quality comes onto the open market and with prices continuing to climb, this car offers its next owner the chance to own a piece of Ford competition inspired history.

The Silverstone Classic Sale

From the start of the Escort range Ford had intended to produce sporting versions of its new model; the first of this special breed of Escort was the Lotus engined Twin-Cam. The Twin-Cam used the same 1558cc engine as the Lotus Cortina. This meant 110bhp and a top speed of 115mph. Externally there was little difference between the Escort Twin-Cam and its tamer sister, the Escort GT. A reinforced bodyshell with wider wheel arches and quarter bumpers hid the uprated suspension and front disc brakes were standard equipment. The Escort Twin-Cam was conceived and developed by Ford’s Boreham based competitions department during 1967 and unleashed on an unsuspecting public during January 1968; going on to achieve many international race and rally victories during its short production life. Ford entered their first event with the Escort, taking part in the new formula of motorsport, Rallycross and also entering at an event at Croft (still used today), the Escort Twin-Cam won 4 races out right. The Ford works team was practically unbeatable in the late 1960’s and 1970’s with, arguably, the Escort’s greatest victory in the 1970 London to Mexico World Cup Rally. In total, just over 1,200 Escort Twin-Cams were built before production ended in 1970 to make way for the RS1600.

The Lamborghini Urraco (which meant little bull) had a 2+2 configuration and hinted at Lamborghini’s grand touring roots. Its sinister styling suggested its ties to the Miura and, from 1974, the Countach. Its fresh V8 engine meanwhile hinted that the Urraco was a new type of Lamborghini altogether. The most developed Urraco was the P300, of which 205 were made from 1975 to 1979.

The P300’s engine had a larger stroke than other models, upping displacement to 2,996cc and providing 265bhp at 7,800rpm and 195ft-lbs of torque at 5,750rpm. The P300 could reach speeds of 155mph.

We are informed by the vendor that this early P300 Urraco was supplied new by Knitter Automobile of Essen in Germany in November of 1975. The over-square all alloy V8 is a real screamer, petulantly snarling out enough grunt to shove the 1100kg Lambo to 150 mph. The vendor informs w w w.sil ve r s to n eau c t i o ns.com

us the engine is leak free with all fluids to level and a very healthy oil pressure at all times, it has been converted to run on unleaded, other work since 2005 includes carb and ignition overhaul, a major service, alloy wheel refurbishment and the fitting of an Ansa exhaust box.

Inside the cabin, the seats, carpets, door trims, dashboard are all in remarkable condition, the body hugging fishnet Recaros give provide superb support for the enthusiastic driver and are themselves in superb order.

Interestingly this particular car was subject to an Octane magazine feature on seventies supercars in 2007 and makes you realise you are driving something that is so much more than a means of transport, each drive is an event in itself.t

2011 marked the 50th birthday of the iconic E-Type, which was well celebrated at our 2011 sale at the Silverstone Classic. This was when the largest gathering of E-Types in the world took to the circuit.

From 1961, the E-Type evolved and improved in its lifecycle from the original Series 1 Coupés and Roadsters, through the Series 2 cars of the late 1960s until finally the Series 3 arrived - only in 5.3 V12 format in late 1971. Available only as a convertible or a ‘2+2’, there were only 7,990 convertibles produced worldwide of the Series 3.

This 1973 left-hand drive Jaguar E-Type Roadster was originally supplied to a customer in New York in its current colour combination of Silver with Russet red interior with factory air conditioning. The current owner purchased

• Converted to run on unleaded fuel.

There was a certain innocence to product placement in the early sixties. Incorporating a brand or product into a movie probably just seemed like a good idea at the time. Eon Productions - having been spurned by Jaguar - turned their attentions to Aston Martin to provide the ‘daily driver’ for MI6 agent, James Bond.. the rest is more than just history.

The 1964 Bond film, ‘Goldfinger’, made the DB5 one of the most famous cars of all time. Schoolboys voted with their hard earned ‘bob a job’ money to make the Corgi Toys DB5 the ‘best-selling toy’ of 1964! w w w.sil ve r s to n eau c t i o ns.com

Today the DB5 remains the most coveted car of our generation and the example on offer at the 2013 Silverstone Classic Sale takes some beating. DB5/2090/R was ordered new by A&B Motors Ltd of Newton-Le-Willow, Lancashire in Platinum with Black leather and delivered in April 1965 with the matching engine 400/2092, which it still retains today. Factory options included chrome wire wheels, heated rear window, Motorola radio and powered aerial. By 1968, two factory services had been documented and a cool 46,000 miles travelled.

Acquired by our vendor in March 2012 from long-term Irish ownership, chassis DB5/2090/R had formed part of an important Dublin based collection. Here it was used regularly and looked after with consistent maintenance, as supported by a host of invoices for parts and sundries, mostly supplied by Aston Service Dorset, with the majority dating between 1993 and 1999. The subject of a sympathetic restoration in 1994, that included a baremetal repaint with photo documentation, this DB5 was then repatriated to the UK sporting deep blue coachwork and black interior before being once again restored to the impressive standard it now bestows. The beneficiary of a near 18 month extensive, yet sympathetic restoration by professional specialists using parts supplied from Aston Service Dorset, Aston Workshop & HWM Aston Martin, this beautiful matching numbers Aston Martin DB5 is now offered for sale. It is presented in many ways,

in a ‘better than new’ appearance thus making it one of the finest examples of its type. It was fully prepared and repainted in March 2013 in Royal Blue metallic, the work undertaken included the bonnet and boot shut apertures, the underside of the bonnet and boot, both door shut apertures including ‘A’ post mounting plates, door shuts and inner frames. Pictures of the preparation and painting can be requested from Silverstone Auctions which show the exceptionally high standard achieved by Specialised Paintwork of Reading, Berkshire.

Cosmetically, professional re-chroming of many components including the gear stick, front bumper, bonnet stays, carburettor parts and domed cylinder head bolts were all undertaken. The radiator fan and radiator was spray painted. The exhaust manifolds were sand and bead blasted before spraying and fitting. The grille was dismantled and professionally polished, as was the chrome grille surround, chrome accelerator pedal, door shut trims and the door furniture. Most of the rubber seals fitted to the bodywork were replaced with correct parts from RS Williams, Aston Martin specialists. Finally, the engine bay was fully detailed, as was underside and all wheel arches.

This car is sold with an original DB5 brochure and a period DB5 Instruction Book, as well as a lovely piece of period leather luggage in the boot space.Silverstone Auctions are proud to offer this best-of-breed example of the world’s most sought-after motor car in the centenary year of the marque.

The vehicle was purchased in 1960 and has remained in York for all its life. It has had two former keepers: the first was a Mr Trevor Harrison, Burton Stone Lane, York.

He owned the Isetta from ‘new’ and there are insurance documents dating back to the 1960s with his name on them. After he died the car was acquired by David Hughes the owner of The Secondhand Warehouse in York. He owned the Isetta from March 2006 until February 2008.

The vendor bought the car from The Secondhand Warehouse where it was stuck in a corner hidden behind a big old piano. The car was complete in every way and having been dry stored it started first time. The car has been welded in two places, a new battery box was fitted and the vendor had the door hinges professionally strengthened with steel plates (it is a well-known problem with the car, the hinges are weak so are liable to move and w w w.sil ve r s to n eau c t i o ns.com

All the work has been carried out by Isetta experts as has every MOT to date. The little Isetta has had loads of new parts. The main ones were a new petrol tank and a new braking system and pipes, a complete new wiring harness (so there are no electrical faults at all). It also had a new drive chain assembly, new shock absorber and suspension all round along with new tyres and rims. The complete list and many receipts are in the history file for the vehicle.

The vendor has a photo-CD of the complete nut and bolt restoration. There have been no modifications to the vehicle except for the door strengthening.

On some cars you will that the restorers have filled the factory spot welds along the rear wings. This has not been done in this car which demonstrates the attention to detail taken over this car.

AK Sportscars of Peterborough began in the mid 1980’s when two friends, who both had a passion for fine cars, got together. They had the ability to expertly design, mould and craft chassis-up replicas of AC Cobras . The car offered here today is perhaps one of the finest they have ever created. Registered in 2007, the body parts for this car had actually been crafted some three years earlier. This resulted in them being perfectly settled and this also meant that, when painted, the finish of the Iris Blue paint to the panels was impeccable and the usual waviness that you often see on painted fibreglass was not present.

The heart of these cars is the engine and that came courtesy of a 5.7 litre Chevrolet V8 small block, originally found in a 300hp Chevy Impala, but with Edelbrock head and Carbs the power output now is closer to 350hp.

The gearbox is a Getrag 5-speed manual box, like those favoured by many Jaguar drivers, and also present is Jaguar independent rear suspension. The car has disc brakes all round.

In the cabin you’ll find two period-looking, but extremely comfortable, cream leather seats with 4 point Willans harnesses that are capable of accommodating even a very tall driver, blue carpeting, a chrome fire extinguisher, a start button as opposed to key-turn and with the car is a full cabin tonneau. The boot is carpeted with a discreet storage cubby hole, plus battery isolator switch and trickle charge connector.

Purchased by our vendor in February 2011 with only 800 miles from new, the car now shows just 1,850 miles at time of cataloguing and will be sold with current MoT to April 2014, UK V5C registration papers and current road tax meaning that, insurance permitting, she can be driven home from the auction.

Lot 439 >> 1990 Bentley Mulsanne S

There are few motorcars that truly evoke the pure motoring thrill of yesteryear, offering a rare combination of unrivalled build quality, driving pleasure and classy, understated, head-turning beauty. The Bentley marque is synonymous with all of this. By the time the Bentley Mulsanne S was in production, Bentley had ironed out the earlier issues of the first generation Mulsanne and Turbo R’s, and were manufacturing all that was best of the tried and tested model.

1990 Bentley Mulsanne S Registration: TUI 900 Chassis Number: SCBZS00A8LCH31987 Engine Number: 71156L410/NEL Estimate (£): No Reserve

Sold with UK V5C and 11 months MOT, this car is offered ‘Without Reserve’ and as such represents a superb investment opportunity for a car that will now only ever appreciate in value.

Hooper bodied, new over-rugs, rare registration AND unreserved - this really is a car not to be missed... If you have ever fancied owning a cost-effective classic car then look no further!

The 1990 Bentley Mulsanne ‘S’ offered here was supplied from new by Jack Barclay of London. Specified in Bentley Green with gold stripes and with a contrasting cream leather interior which has gracefully shouldered the test of time, this car further benefits from being fitted with the highly sought-after oval Hooper rear window. The current owner has invested in a brand new four-piece suite of lamb’s wool over-rugs to complement the interior carpets and leatherwork. This beautiful model is also to be sold complete with the impressive registration mark ‘TUI900’ closely emulating the Bentley-owned press plate of all new models since 1926, ‘1900TU’. Giving added value to a very special motor car, this Mulsanne S is also offered with the full original build history from the RREC specifying every single part fitted. Having travelled just 79,000 miles, this is an average of less than 3,400 per annum.

1963 Triumph TR4 Registration: Unreg’d Chassis Number: CT10105L Engine Number: CT10577E Estimate (£): 17,000 - 20,000

The Triumph TR4 was introduced in 1961 to follow its very successful predecessors, the TR2 and TR3. Code named ‘Zest’ during development the body was given a more modern and updated appearance by Michelotti but its drive train and chassis remained the same using the well proven 4 cylinder pushrod unit, however its capacity was increased from 1991cc to 2138cc. Handling was improved by a three inch wider track and steering was also updated to the more modern and precise rack and pinion system.

Internally the car gained wind up windows and the new angular rear end allowed for a boot with a very reasonable luggage capacity for a sports car. Another innovation was the option of an alloy hard top with a removable roof panel that was five years ahead of Porsche’s famous 911 Targa .

40235 cars were built between 1961 and 1965 and over the years this car has become one of Triumphs most popular sports cars. w w w.sil ve r s to n eau c t i o ns.com

This charming and usable example of the sought-after TR4 is a sensible option for a relative newcomer to the classic car scene being, as it is, in full running order and the subject of significant recent restorative works. It was owned by one gentleman in the US for over 40 years and received its first restoration by him in the 1970’s with no deviation from the original specification. Post-restoration the car was used very little, reputedly about 15,000miles, and then was laid up in dry storage for 22 years before being discovered. The bodywork remained in excellent condition, and even the paint was untarnished despite the time spent in storage. To be certain of its mechanical reliability the car was completely checked and serviced before being shipped to the UK. A recent bill totalling close to $4,000 shows that the car received rebuilt carburettors, ignition timing and tune-up as well as new battery, complete new exhaust system, replacement fan belt, coolant flush, brake and clutch fluid flush, wheel bearings and new fuel & water pumps. She now starts and drives without questions being asked. The gear change is accurate and the steering precise. The only slight adjustment which the new owner might choose to make would be to the drivers’ door which compared to the other door and body shuts around the car is a few millimetres adrift. Imported from the USA in September of 2012 but with full EU taxes paid, this car has American title and a full UK MoT to February 2014 making it ready for registration.

Lot 441

1966 Aston Martin DB6 Mk I Registration: MNR 477F Chassis Number: DB6/2841/RN Engine Number: 400/2834 Estimate (£): 100,000 - 120,000

Considered by many to be the last ‘real’ Aston Martin, the DB6 was launched in 1965, updating the DB5. Although Royal patronage of the marque undoubtedly helped DB6 sales, the car arrived at a difficult time for Aston Martin with the home economy in an uncertain state and the US market subject to ever-more restrictive legislation. Though recognisably related to its Touring-styled DB4 ancestor, the DB6 abandoned the Superleggera body structure of its predecessors in favour of a conventional steel fabrication.

The wheelbase was now 4” longer than before, resulting in an extensive restyle with more-raked windscreen, raised roofline and reshaped rear quarter windows.

Chassis number DB6/2841/RN was originally delivered on 16th January 1966 to Lazenby Garages Ltd, Leicester and was purchased new by none other than Des O’Connor CBE. Every conceivable option was ordered, as detailed in the w w w.sil ve r s to n eau c t i o ns.com

factory build records, including power steering, heated rear screen, twin Volante fuel tanks, air conditioning and a special red interior. A period photograph in the history file shows Mr O’Connor at the wheel of his newly purchased DB6. Factory service records detail expenditure over the first 5 years with descriptions of the maintenance and servicing carried out by the Aston Martin factory.

Finished today in the original colour combination of Oyster Special Grey with Special Red Interior, this delightful example has never been restored and is in completely original condition. Rarely do we see a car so complete and boasting the original engine, automatic transmission, interior seats, door cards and even the chassis number allocation written under the rear seats. Reading a believed genuine 86,750 miles from new, 2841/RN was dry-stored in the South of France and taken off the road by the current registered keeper in 1992 which was the last time the car was taxed. For 30 years the car remained secluded in a barn until it was pulled out and sent back to England for a mechanical overhaul.

Nearly every conceivable mechanical component has been evaluated, stripped, refurbished or rebuilt. The engine demonstrated a healthy oil pressure when the car was first started and was inspected and found to be in excellent

Lot 441>> 1966 Aston Martin DB6 Mk I

condition. The following works have been recently completed: Brake calipers rebuilt with stainless steel pistons and handbrake units.

Waterpump refurbished.

Starter motor refurbished.

Alternator refurbished.

Brake master cylinder refurbished.

New ignition leads, fuel pump, coil, condenser etc etc.

Triple SU carbs completely stripped and refurbished.

A total of approximately 1,000 hours has been spent on this DB6 in the last 6 months. Detailed photographs of all works carried out and can be viewed in the history file. The owner has decided not to repaint the car, but rather leave it its highly original, unrestored state. However the painstaking mechanical overhaul has resulted in every mechanical component being in fully operational order. All gauges and dials are functional and the finished car still demonstrates good oil pressure. A full year’s MoT will be supplied prior to the auction. Also available in the history file are bills for parts, some old MoT test certificates, factory records and pictures of the first owner Des O’Connor. Supplied with its original number plate, MNR 477F is a true survivor and is offered for public sale for the first time in over 35 years.

1964 Ford Mustang 289 Fastback Registration: HVK 52C Chassis Number: 5R09C132366 Engine Number: 2896554H551J Estimate (£): 35,000 - 40,000

The Ford Mustang was first introduced on April 17th 1964 and was based on the platform of the then current Ford Falcon. Since then no less than 5 generations of this famous car have come and gone, but perhaps the original Fastback remains the most popular and easily identified.

Certainly they are now the most collectable and desirable and our matching numbers car is one of the very first produced in St. Jose, California on 27th August 1964. The chassis number tells us it was a 1965 model year, 2 door ‘Fastback’ built with a 289 engine and a four speed optional auto transmission. It was finished in Medium Grey with red standard bucket seats and was a ‘domestic special order’ with a 2.8:1 final drive ratio, exactly as it is today.

It retains its original specification, however the engine and gearbox have been restored to the very highest of standards. Driving superbly according to the vendor, it

was both restored and fully repainted in 2008. The owner, an enthusiast at the time, upgraded the wheels to wider alloys, lowered and upgraded the suspension and shock absorbers, fitted new front disc brakes, power steering, front roll bar and new bushes. The engine received an Edelbrock four barrel carburettor with Edelbrock Headers and a stainless steel twin pipe exhaust system.

The car also features a big core radiator, so it now idles happily in UK traffic (!), a ‘Bullit’ grill, top tint windscreen, spot lights, a ‘rally pack’ which included additional instruments, an £800 upgraded sound system, a full centre console and ‘Pony’ floormats.

As values steadily rise, this car is ready to drive and enjoy today with nothing left to spend, the car is fully serviced and has a current MOT and free road tax. What are you waiting for?

Lot 443>> 1989 Ferrari GTS Turbo

Lot 443

The GTB/GTS was split into two distinct production categories. From 1980 to 1986 the 208 was based on the 308 design and looked very similar. However, from 1986 to 1989, the new 328 model was used as the basis for the GTB Turbo and it appeared almost identical to its bigger brother. In total a mere 437 GT Turbo models were manufactured.

Registration: TBA Chassis Number: 79425 Engine Number: 15481 Estimate (ÂŁ): 25,000 - 30,000

This later generation GTS Turbo is a rare find indeed.

Showing what is believed to be a genuine 44,000 kilometres, the bodywork and interior are presented in fine condition and would suggest this mileage is correct.

Finished in Nero with black leather interior, this vehicle is supplied with a UK V5 registration document.

Additional features include air conditioning, electric windows, electric mirrors, central locking, alarm, alloy wheels, ABS and Targa roof panel. This car has a very nice service history and has been with the current owner since 1999. It has been cherished and garaged throughout his ownership. A GTB Turbo represents a fine addition to any collection and the turbo-charged engine provides a unique Ferrari driving experience.

Inspired by the success of turbo-charging engines that had been seen in Formula 1, Ferrari decided to adopt it on their road-cars and in 1980 revealed the 208 GTB Turbo. The model was created specifically for the Italian market and to counter the strict tax laws that penalised cars over 2000cc.

Under the bonnet there was a transversely mid-mounted aluminium V8 engine, with a capacity of 1991cc and a compression ratio of 7:1. It had a claimed output of 220bhp at 7000rpm and was mated to an all synchromesh five speed transmission.

Porsche 911 ‘997’ Carrera Cup Car Registration: Not Specified Chassis Number: Not Specified Engine Number: Not Specified Estimate (£): 50,000 - 55,000

The Porsche Carrera Cup was founded in the UK in 2001 and has since been run annually, featuring factory built race cars that are all finished to the same specification, making it one of the most competitive, high profile ‘one make’ series in the world today.

The ‘997’ version of the Porsche 911 GT3 was used by the Carrera Cup Championship from 2006 onwards. Costing £110,000 when new, it featured an improved package all round with over 400bhp now available, coupled to a Hollinger sequential 6 speed gearbox. The racing was close and the series blossomed both in the UK and Europe.

This particular car was supplied new in 2007 and used for just half the season before being acquired by a friend of Silverstone Auctions, Mark Hazell. Used sparingly in 08/09, it actually took part in just a handful of Carrera Cup races

80

w w w.sil ve r s to n eau c t i o ns.com

as keen amateur Mark was busy with hobbies and pursuits elsewhere. This led to Silverstone Auctions owner, Nick Whale, approaching Mark to buy the car to race with his son in the burgeoning GT Cup series. He bought this car because he knew it had always been professionally run by a top team, maintained to Porsche factory recommended guidelines (whereby all major components are ‘lifed’) and never crashed!

Since 2010 it has appeared in only a handful of GT Cup races every season, with Nick and Harry being on the class podium every time out and frequently finishing in the top 5 overall.

It is an extremely rapid and competitive car that still runs in standard Carrera Cup ‘spec’ and is maintained exactly to Porsche recommended standards by noted Midlands based ‘In 2 Racing’ (contact 01789 750567). The engine is rebuilt every 60 hours and the gearbox every 30 hours, with the last rebuild of both engine and gearbox taking place just 2 races ago at the beginning of the 2013 season (so jst 5 hours running since rebuild). At the same time new front discs, new clutch, a new ‘Hans’ racing harness and new gearbox control cables were also fitted.

In its latest outings the car won its class at Donington in April ‘13- finishing 5th overall, and came 3rd in class at Brands-Hatch GP in May ‘13. The car is ‘wrapped’ in blue which has preserved the original white paint well for the next owner. Sold with a very comprehensive spares package including 12 wheels, all set up information, it is now ready to use for the rest of this season. Drives the best of any 911 Cup Car!

1953 Jaguar XK120 Roadster Registration: 805 YUR Chassis Number: 673820 Engine Number: W7987-8 Estimate (£): 55,000 - 65,000

The Jaguar XK120 is a sports car which was manufactured

by Jaguar between 1948 and 1954. It was launched in roadster form at the 1948 London Motor Show as a test bed and show car for the new Jaguar XK engine. It caused a sensation. So much so that it persuaded Jaguar founder and design boss William Lyons to put it into production.

The “120” in its name referred to its 120 mph top speed which made the XK120 the world’s fastest standard production car at the time of its launch. Success in motor racing secured the cars future and an icon was born. Today, Jaguar XKs, and particularly 120s, remain much sought after with the Roadsters in particular carrying a premium over the Drophead and Fixedhead coupés.

This 1953 Jaguar XK120 Roadster was first despatched to the Chas. Hornburg Jaguar dealership, Los Angeles on 2nd

82

w w w.sil ve r s to n eau c t i o ns.com

April 1953. It has had a total of three owners, sits on steel wheels with spats and still wears its California ‘black plate’.

A Jaguar Heritage certificate confirms that the 3.4 engine is matching numbers and that the car is an original left-hand drive example. Extensive receipts document maintenance going back to 1959, with period invoices and letters between previous owners. This example was the subject of an older restoration that has stood the test of time. There is no evidence of corrosion and the paintwork, chrome and interior are all in good condition. The engine maintains a healthy oil pressure and significant torque is delivered with ease. The previous owner only covered 2,000 miles in the car since 1982 and this would explain why the car remains in such fine overall condition.

All EU taxes and duties have been paid and there are recent bills for recent works carried out in February 2013.

A recent tonneau cover, side screens and wet weather gear can be found in the boot.

This is a genuine three-owner California car and has one of the most extensive history files we have ever seen on an XK Jaguar. Finished in the fashionable colour combination of white with tan leather interior, there are very few cars that can boast such an extensive and privileged history as chassis number 673820.

1977 Suzuki GS750 Café Racer Registration: OMW 454R Frame Number: Not Specified Engine Number: Not Specified Estimate (£): 4,500 - 6,000

It is widely accepted that the Suzuki GS750 was the first superbike from Japan to ‘get it right’. Many similar marques had either the power or the handling - but not both.

Suzuki had finally created a bike that was both reliable and powerful but with a graceful handling ability not seen in other 1970’s motorcycles. A much needed versatile bike had been born which would one day grow to become highly sought-after the world over.

This highly desirable Suzuki Café Racer has been customized by professional bike mechanics to the highest standard. The 750cc four-in-line engine is completely original, running beautifully and sounding very impressive, with transmission through the smooth 5-speed box. The frame has been modified and the rear sub-frame cut down to fit in and match the shape of a slim, custom made, handstitched seat. w w w.sil ve r s to n eau c t i o ns.com

A new exhaust system has been fitted, including a custommade manifold by Nick Gale Customs that has been grafted on. The rims and hubs have been powder-coated and thicker stainless spokes fitted. The frame has been repainted and the engine cases buffed up to a semi-gloss metallic finish, with the added detail of the wiring loom having been changed , the bike now benefits from LED indicators and modern ignition.

This impressive Café Racer comes complete with MoT to April 2014 with the V5 document present. Many past MoT’s and a comprehensive build and invoice history also accompany this Lot.

This stunning Ford Escort Mk1 RS1600 is a newly built Grp2 tarmac specification rally car constructed to the latest FIA/ MSA regulations by world renowned Northern Irish rally preparers, McGeehan MotorSport. Derek McGeehan heads up the company (who are 6 times Irish Tarmac champions and have been National champions with WRC, Group N, Group IV and historic cars) and he told Silverstone Auctions in April 2013 that this car is built to their ultimate specification at considerable cost. It has yet to be used competitively. The engine is a top-spec 1975cc Ford BDA unit built by the ultimate Ford engine guru, Alan Sherwood, with rare Lucas fuel injection on throttle bodies (ex-Kinsler) and giving over 260bhp on his dyno, (dyno sheet supplied) It is running on L1 rally cams and a 4 in to 2 in to 1 stainless steel exhaust. This is coupled to a ZF quick release gearbox with a new ZF bell-housing and AP twin plate hydraulic clutch. w w w.sil ve r s to n eau c t i o ns.com

The body-shell is a soda blasted and professionally repainted genuine Mk 1 Ford AVO shell, fully strengthened and gusseted, with a welded in T45 Custom Cages FIA:MSA cage with sill bars, a HANS bar and cross diagonal door bars. An AHF professional fuel system and dry sump oil system are both installed in the boot. The rear suspension features the ultimate set up of a fully floating Atlas axle with 5.1 ratio LSD, heavy duty half-shafts, heavy duty 6 link axle with correct and ‘FIA/MSA legal’ short links fitted, coil overs and plastic leaf springs.

This really exceptional E-Type has just been completed after a four-year ground up restoration. Chassis #20746 is a numbers matching UK car which had an engine replacement by Jaguar within its first 12 months. It has a heritage certificate recording this, it comes with extensive history, an eye-watering invoice file and the original buff log book. The first owner of this lovely Jaguar was famed 60’s comedian, Charlie Drake, best known for his TV shows Charlie Drake In... and The Charlie Drake Show, or perhaps best remembered for his opening catchphrase “Hello, my darlings!”

The restoration of this car has not been completed to a concours standard as the intention was to build a smart and usable E-Type which, when professionally sorted, would be reliable and fun to use. All aspects of this car were renewed or refurbished. Invoices for new parts alone w w w.sil ve r s to n eau c t i o ns.com

amount to over £15,000 and more than 200 photographs document the restoration. The body shell was taken to bare metal with glass and trim out and doors off. It was subject to a full re-spray in the Red paint you see, including the underside. At this time it was also fully dynamated to reduce interior temperatures.

The six-cylinder, 4.2 litre engine was fully rebuilt by VSE, Jaguar Engine Specialists of Powys. The gearbox and rear axle were stripped and refurbished with new clutch and cylinder fitted. The brakes were fully overhauled including an upgrade to 4-pot brakes and copper brake lines. The suspension was stripped and rebuilt with new poly bushes and new Spax adjustable shocks and springs, and finally, new steering rack fitted. The wheels and tyres are new with 6” chrome wire wheels and correct 205 tyres.

The interior, which is finished in black leather, has been fully refurbished making it a very pleasant place to be and all the gauges and switches have been restored or renewed. The electrics all behave and work as they should thanks to a new wiring loom and upgraded headlights have been fitted.

Sold with current MoT test certificate and V5C registration document, this is a very sensibly priced and masterfully restored E-Type that could cost significantly more than the guide-price to undertake again.

1971 Lamborghini Jarama Registration: DDG 992J Chassis Number: 10112 Engine Number: 40402 Estimate (£): 45,000 - 52,000

A rare car even by Lamborghini standards, the Jarama (pronounced Yah-rah-ma) was unveiled at the 1970 Geneva Motor Show. It used a shortened Espada chassis with a stunning Marcello Gandini styled steel body built

by Marazzi. Even by today’s standards this two door GT is stunningly fast, the 350 bhp V12 quad-cam, which was taken from the Espada and sported six Weber carburettors, could crack 155mph. The 1973 385 bhp S version was quicker still and identifiable by its subtle bonnet scoops and air vents behind the front wheel arches. Not only was it fun to drive it was a proficient handler and it sold in steady numbers until 1976 with a total of just 327 cars ever being built.

We are informed by the vendor that this particular car was supplied new by Lamborghini Espanol General Mola on the 22nd April 1971 to a Mr Osvaldo Nicholas Ferrara, an Argentine musician, composer and conductor.

An interesting additional feature of this fabulous car is a period Dictaphone which, rumour has it, Mr Ferrara ordered in order for him to compose music whilst driving, although there is no paperwork to confirm this. The car remained in his ownership until his death in 1977.

The vehicle was then sold to Aero Industries of Madrid, who we are informed then dispatched the car back to the Lamborghini factory for an engine overhaul and upgrade to ‘S’ specification along with cooling and brake modifications and a full bare metal re-spray.

There’s a gentle clattering from the electric fuel pump and a starter whirr before the quad-cam, multi-Webered V12 thoroughbred erupts into life, settling quickly to a meaty burble at 800 rpm tick over. Above 4000 rpm there’s an unrelenting surge of power delivered with a spine tingling bellow that defies belief. Currently owned by a Lamborghini enthusiast for the last 12 years this stunning GT car has been very highly maintained and has been mainly used for commutes to the South of France. We are informed the car drives without fault and has proved to be exceptionally reliable over the years.

The Ferrari 456 and 456 M are front-engined ‘Grand Tourers’ in the true tradition that were produced from 1992 until 2003. The 456 was an overdue replacement for the then defunct front-engined 412 which had been the company’s premium 4-seat V12 car. The 456 was warmly received by the motoring community. The later 456M was replaced in 2004 by the 612 Scaglietti making it the last Ferrari model to use pop-up headlamps.

The beautiful 456 GTA offered for sale here has lived a very pampered life. Sold new by Maranello Sales Ltd, for the grand sum of £176,000, this car is one of very few in the stunning colours of Ferrari Forest Green with Crema interior. The first owner was none other than Mr Bernie Ecclestone, who reportedly used the car as his daily driver.

A further three owners are detailed on the registration document and the original service booklet details a full main-dealer and specialist service history. The last stamp was an annual service in November 2012 at 22,096 miles with Fiorano Sportscars. Having covered only a few hundred miles since, this 456 is ready for use by its next

1959 Lotus Elite series 1 Registration: XAS 403 Chassis Number: 1057 Engine Number: 9575 Estimate (£): 50,000 - 60,000

The Lotus Elite was launched at the London Motor Show at Earls Court, London, in 1957 as a unique fibreglass ‘monocoque’ construction. The car was regarded as a very pretty design back in the day and it went on to enjoy great success, both on road and track, even racing at Le Mans where it won its class no less than six times at La Sarthe.

The ‘SE’ and ‘Super’ models followed shortly thereafter featuring; twin Webers, a fabricated exhaust manifold, a ZF gearbox, Lucas PL700 headlamps and a silver coloured roof. Between 1958 and 1963 just 1030 Elite’s had been produced in total, worldwide.This extremely pretty Series I, original right hand drive, Elite was first registered on the 9th September 1959, supplied by Michael Christie Motors of Aylesbury, and was the 43rd production model to leave the Lotus factory at Hethel in Norfolk. w w w.sil ve r s to n eau c t i o ns.com

The car was used in the UK by the first owner and then exported to Germany in 1967 when it was acquired by a noted German Lotus collector, Peter Loderer. Having been dry stored for 30 years as part of a significant collection, it was finally repatriated to the UK in 2002. It was then comprehensively restored and rebuilt to ‘Super’ specification. The Coventry Climax FWE engine was rebuilt to stage III specification by renowned specialist, Mike Brotherhood. It incorporated a 5 bearing high lift camshaft, twin Webers, a 4 branch fabricated exhaust manifold, a remote oil filter and ‘Bendix’ type fuel pump. The gearbox fitted is a ZF close ratio with a 4.2:1 rear axle ratio.

The body was fully stripped to the gel coat, rebuilt and repainted to incorporate a NACA style duct in the bonnet, a Monza type fuel filler cap, strong 60 spoke wheels, Lucas ‘long range’ PL 700 lights, a heater demister unit and full harnesses. Additonally the brake and clutch systems were renewed and replaced along with all hub and suspension bearings and bushes. The rear suspension and hub carriers were also reinforced.

Inside the cabin has been re-trimmed in original pattern grey carpet (along with the boot), and tan leather upholstery to the seats.

The car presents extremely well today, virtually concours, and this includes the engine bay and the underneath. It drives superbly, as it should, having covered only 700 miles in total since the full restoration. With values now starting to climb as the rarity of these little cars becomes more apparent, this is Silverstone Auction’s tip for a future long term investment, with a very high fun factor along the way!

The amazing and thoroughly exotic Ferrari Testarossa was first introduced as a 5.0 litre, 12 cylinder mid-engined sportscar in 1984. It was the successor to the Berlinetta Boxer. Instantly successful worldwide, the car then went on to have various derivatives - the 512TR and F512M, but it is the original cars with the ‘twin mirrors’ (produced between 1987 and 1991) that are now recognised as the most collectable and rare. With 440bhp and 500 newton/metres of torque, 0 - 60 came in just 4.7 seconds pushing on to a top speed of 196mph.

This original UK supplied car has covered a documented 10,000 miles from new. Having had only one previous owner, this desirable late Testarossa has been with the current owner for over 20 years in a private collection.

1964 Lancia Flavia Sport Zagato Registration: GNH 178B Chassis Number: 815532001422 Engine Number: 1379 Estimate (£): 25,000 - 30,000

The most outrageous, and least well known, Lancia Zagato was the 1.8 litre Flavia. Designed by Ercole Spada, Zagato’s main man of the era, it possessed some earlier Zagato motifs, such as the windows into the roofline, which harkened back to the Panoramic Fiats of the early fifties.

This car came from Milan, Italy where it was part of a 300 strong Italian classic car stable. The car is an older restoration (10+ years) and is in beautiful un-molested condition and in Left hand drive. The body designed and built by hand in Milan by Zagato is constructed from aluminium. Some Flavias were constructed from aluminium and some steel/aluminium, so this particular model is an extremely desirable classic GT. The body is finished in a deep shade of red and shows very little age and shines up very well. The body itself is very straight and very sharp along the shut lines. The seam along the bottom of the w w w.sil ve r s to n eau c t i o ns.com

sill is as from the factory (i.e. no careless mechanic lifting the car from the seam) and all bright work is in fantastic condition.

The interior is really something to behold, beautifully presented in a tan leather/ tan carpet combination with a black leather dash with original zagato black crinkle finish on interior components. As with all Zagatos, there are very quirky features that really go above and beyond the standard, such as the electric rear window raising device to allow air to pass through the interior! The dash binnacle is again very quirky with a rather unconventional speedometer. These features are what make these cars so special and desirable today. The 1800cc 4 cylinder boxer engine is the sport model that features the twin carburettors giving an impressive 104HP. The engine is reported to run well and demonstrate excellent oil pressure throughout all temperatures. The engine bay is presented exceptionally and is a credit to the workmanship of the restorer. The gearbox is a joy to operate and glides into all gears effortlessly with no grinding or clunks. A full condition report is available by marque specialists Terry Keys. Recent work has included a top-end refurbishment and new front suspension components. With prices of 1960’s GT’s rocketing at the moment, there is no better time to purchase a very exclusive Italian GT. This Lancia offers great value for money with real world usability.

Ferrari unveiled the F430 at the 2004 Paris Motor Show with an entirely new 4300cc V8 engine.

short supply. For the 2007 season this F430, converted by the world renowned and factory approved, Kessel Racing, (No.7), was used in the British GT Championship with Hector Lester and Allan Simonsen, joined on occasions

by Tim Mullen. This was a very successful year with 4 wins - including the Silverstone 2 hour event - and a further second and two third places.

By 2008, the reputation of the F430 was still further enhanced, this time internationally, with participation in the Australian GT3 series supporting the Formula One Grand Prix at Albert Park, Melbourne. Hector Lester was second in the first race but made amends to finish on top of the podium in race two. It returned to Australia in the 2011 season to compete in the Bathurst 12hr event where it finished 6th overall. Refreshed since then, there are many hours and kilometres left in the ‘life’ of the components, but the safety items (Race harness and extinguisher system) will require servicing.

This Ferrari is still a very competitive car today and is still eligible for numerous series both in the UK and abroad.

Offered with a fantastic history, but furthermore being touched by the late Allan Simonsen, whose reputation as a fast, sympathetic and determined driver had defined GT Racing for several years and provides an endearing legacy that will live on in this car forever.

Unveiled at the Frankfurt Motor Show by Michael Schumacher in 2007, the Ferrari 430 Scuderia was lighter and more powerful than the 430. Extra power came from a revised intake and exhaust system with engine management that allowed for a higher compression ratio.

There were also upgraded electronics for the swift semiautomatic gear changes gained from their ‘F1’ experience.

The upgrades would carry Ferrari further into its GT racing campaign and maintain a competitive edge against its rivals, namely the Porsche RSR. Purchased new by our vendor in 2007, direct from Ferrari UK as a Challenge car, it was unused before being sent to world renowned and factory approved, ‘Kessel Racing’, in Switzerland to be converted to GT3 specification.

It was run by Scotland’s ‘Road and Track’ Team, headed by John Buchan who applied much of the experience gained during their previously successful two seasons. The car is credited with 2 wins, 7 poles and 11 fastest laps.

For the 2010 British GT Championship, the 430 GT3 was sent to to Kessel Racing to be converted to Scuderia specification. At this stage the chassis and engine had covered 9326kms, so a new engine block was fitted to complete full upgrade to the Scuderia. Over the season and some races in 2011 Allan Simonsen, Hector Lester and Stephane Daoudi scored many podium finishes including 1 win, 3 poles and 4 fastest laps.

This Ferrari 430 GT3 Scuderia represents their final evolution and is a car with great history and provenance.

Priced at close to ÂŁ200,000 when new, these rare and powerful cars were hand built at The Aston Martin factory at Newport Pagnell. It was equipped with a 5.3L V8 engine sporting twin superchargers. The power output was around 550 bhp, and the torque was equally impressive at 555 ft/ lbs. Top speed was 186 mph, with a 0-60mph time of just 4.6 seconds an astonishing feat for such a large car.

The 1974-5 911 Carrera Targa is amongst the rarest and perhaps least appreciated of the fast, classic 911’s. The car uses all of the same running gear as the iconic 1973 2.7 RS and gives the same blistering 150mph performance from its 210bhp 911/83 engine. ‘Motor’ magazine recorded an astonishing 0-60mph time of 5.5 seconds for a new 2.7 Carrera in 1974. The model was built for just two years and only 42 RHD cars were imported officially into the UK, of which just 11 are known to still be in use today. It is therefore massively rarer than any RS. It is also worthy of note that Porsche have never since put their top motorsport specification engine in an open car, so the 2.7 Carrera Targa is unique in the manufacturer’s history.

This car is an original right hand drive early chassis number, built in late 1973 and supplied new in January 1974 to its first UK owner. It is offered for sale on behalf of a well-

known British classic Porsche enthusiast who acquired the car in 2011 from its owner of the previous 23 years. At this point the car was carefully recommissioned, restored externally in its original Grand Prix white by a marque specialist and the seats were retrimmed in period-correct red light basket weave material from Southbound Motor Trimmers. Two days were spent ensuring the Targa top fitted correctly and kept out the worst of the British weather. The mechanicals were restored earlier by Alan Rouse of Essex-based Autostrasse, including rebuilding the engine and upgrading it to hydraulic cam chain tensioners.

At the same time it was fully serviced, the suspension geometry reset. The complex mechanical injection system was set up by a specialist last year. Unsurprisingly it drives beautifully and the acceleration is still incredible, even by today’s standards.

The car is very original and complete, including its matching number engine and all of the hard-to-find period parts such as the hugely rare original factory ducktail engine lid, 380mm steering wheel and 180mph speedo.

It comes complete with a full history file including the original service book and manual and MoT certificates back to 1982. There is a current MoT to March 2014 and tax until November 2013, although being built in 1973 road tax will become free next year.

1965 Pontiac GTO Tri-Power Registration: KBY 417C Chassis Number: TBC Engine Number: TBC Estimate (£): 30,000 - 40,000

The GTO - so named in respect to the Ferrari 250 GTO by Pontiac chief engineer John DeLorean - was launched in 1964 to mixed appeal but restyled for the 1965 model year, adding 3.1 inches to the overall length and creating a sportier car to compete with what Ford were achieving with the Mustang. It did of course retain Pontiac’s characteristic vertically stacked quad headlights though.

The fully restored Pontiac GTO offered here is a rare sight in the UK. To many it epitomises true muscle car motoring, and why wouldn’t it? The 6.4L big block V8 engine was made more powerful with ‘Tri-Power’ carburation (3 two-barrel Rochester 2G carburettors) and mated to the four-speed manual gearbox it is capable of getting that power down. The carburettor set-up and linkages are all new and have been carefully tuned to ensure the car runs faultlessly. With the help and support of recognised marque w w w.sil ve r s to n eau c t i o ns.com

experts, Ames Performance, the vendor has very accurately restored this car.

The paint is completed to a very high standard in a metallic Green that changes colours in different light.

All the chrome work has been removed and has either been re-chromed or replaced for new, as were the casings around the headlamps, door handles, mirrors and trim.

New rubbers have been fitted to all the doors and shuts; the windscreen has been replaced (eventually! - it did take a few attempts to get it exactly right) and the car sits on original rally wheels shod in performance steel radial tyres. In the interior, the front seats have been re-padded and recovered whilst the rears are original, the dash is all-original and is not cracked or tarnished, there are new carpets and mats throughout, a reproduction deep-dish steering wheel and even the heater and the interior light actually work! Finally, the vendor sourced the correct 1964/5 Radio at a cost of $900 alone.

Mechanically, the chassis was found to be in superb condition, so to preserve this it has been Waxoyled. The gearbox was rebuilt as part of the restoration and new exhaust system, excluding mufflers, was fitted. Braking, a common weak-point of early Pontiacs is courtesy of disc brakes to all four wheels. It has a full MoT as you would expect and is sold with taxes paid and a V5C registration certificate.

The Alfa Romeo Giulietta was first introduced in 1954 and was built at the Portello factory in Milan. In 1957 the powerful Berlina version, called the Giulietta Ti (Turismo Internazionale) was added to the model line-up. A revised version was debuted at the 1961 Frankfurt Motor Show and was unveiled as the 101 series. The Giulietta used the famous Alfa Romeo Twin Cam all-alloy 1290cc engine mated to the Belina (4 door) body and was a sophisticated package. The engine was very well engineered and equal to many sports designs of the period. It had a large oil capacity which allowed sustained high revs and cast piston liners which ensured a long life. It was truly a Sports sedan with some effective mechanicals like Alfin drums, aluminium differential housing to the rear axle and coil springs. Being compact and light also gave the Giulietta great performance.

Lot 465

Aston Martin DBS Vantage Registration: EU Registered Chassis Number: DBS/5662/R Engine Number: 400/4740/SVC Estimate (£): 60,000 - 80,000

Introduced at the October 1967 Motor Show, the DBS was the successor to the famed Aston Martin DB6, although the two ran concurrently for three years. Styled in-house

by William Towns, the aluminium-bodied four-seater had a sharper, more Italianate look than the curvaceous DB6 but still exuded road presence and looks mighty impressive even today. Longer, wider and more luxurious than the DB6, the DBS employed a platform-type chassis with independent suspension all round: wishbone and coil-spring at the front, De Dion with Watts linkage at the rear. Autocar judged it superior to the preceding DB6 in many areas, offering four full-sized seats in addition to transformed handling and roadholding courtesy of the new suspension and standardised power steering.

Originally designed to accept an all-new V8 engine, this was not ready in time for the car’s launch so it was fitted with the legendary four-litre DB6 engine instead. As with

112

w w w.sil ve r s to n eau c t i o ns.com

the latter, the twin-cam engine was available in standard or Vantage tune - the former producing 282bhp at 5,500rpm via triple SU carburettors, the latter 325bhp at 5,750rpm with triple Webers and hotter cams. Production of the DBS stretched between September 1967 and April 1972 during which time only 70 RHD Vantage examples were produced.

Continuing Aston’s famed 007 connections, the DBS was used by George Lazenby’s James Bond in the 1969 film ‘On Her Majesty’s Secret Service’.

According to a copy of the original factory build sheets, DBS/5662/R was delivered new to Dorking, Surry with the registration D111 by H.W Motors. The factory guarantee was issued on 14th October 1970. This stunning car had a further 3 keepers in the UK before it was purchased by the vendor three years ago as a rolling project. Over a two year period the car has been rebuilt to a high standard with the suspension, engine and body all being recommissioned by classic car experts in France. Both the engine and gearbox are matching the factory build sheets. Finished in the very same olive green as used by James Bond, this car is being returned to the UK for sale and is supplied with French registration documents. DBS values have been overshadowed by DB4/5/6 prices of late. However, many believe this understated little brother is long overdue an increase in both demand and value. Offered today as it left the factory, Silverstone auctions are delighted to offer such a rare and interesting Aston Martin.

Jeff Uren was a very well respected race driver and engineer. He drove in the inaugural year of the British Saloon Car Championship in 1958. The following year he won the series in a Ford Zephyr beating the ‘Works’ cars and drivers, causing Ford to offer him a job. He left in 1962 and teamed up with John Willment preparing and racing Ford Galaxies, Falcons, Cobras and of course GT40’s. When Willment stopped racing Uren set up his own company with a plan to fit larger capacity engines into production cars, the Ford Cortina being the most popular. The Savage had arrived. Not surprisingly they were very well regarded and even had tacit approval from Ford. Eventually some 1700 cars were converted by the time these upgrades finished. He was also good at marketing and understood the need for ‘hero cars’ within a model line-up and so catered for a willing market.

1954 Jaguar XK120 Drophead Coupé Registration: XKV120 Chassis Number: 667289 Engine Number: F3605-8 Estimate (£): 50,000 - 55,000

The stylish Jaguar XK120 was launched at the 1948 London Motor Show to showcase Jaguars’ new ‘XK’ engine. It caused a sensation, which persuaded Jaguar founder and design boss, William Lyons, to put it into production, after the cessation in 1940 of the much loved Jaguar SS100.

The ‘120’ in its name referred to its 120mph top speed (even faster with the windscreen removed) which made the XK120 the world’s fastest standard production car at the time of its launch. It was available in two open versions, first as the roadster, then also as a drop-head coupé from 1953; and finally as a closed, or ‘fixed-head’ coupé from 1951. The drop-head coupé was a more deluxe open model, with wind-up windows,wood-veneer dashboard and interior door caps, as on the fixed-head. w w w.sil ve r s to n eau c t i o ns.com

The engine, latterly known as the ‘Type-C’ was modified into 3.8 litres and 4.2 litres versions and it survived well into the late 1980s! All XK120’s had independent torsion bar front suspension with semi-elliptic leaf springs at the rear, recirculating ball steering, a telescopically adjustable steering column and all-round 12 inch drum brakes. All models had removable spats covering the rear wheel arches. These enhanced the streamlined look and gave a nod to the stylised pre-war American car designs.

This 1954 model, Chassis No 667289, Engine No F3505-8, was originally registered PGH 600 and sold in Black and came to the present keeper, a garage owner in his own right, in 1993 as a partially completed rebuild. Some ten years earlier an extensive ‘nut and bolt’ bare-metal rebuild had begun, including a complete engine overhaul and new clutch. The car comes with a photographic album of the body rebuild.

The car now sports Old English White paintwork, with red leather interior and a walnut dashboard. It has been lovingly cared for and has clocked around only 400 miles since the rebuild was completed in 1993. The car has a current MoT and a host of past MoT certificates suggesting the mileage to be correct. The powerful engine starts very

The Lotus 340R was introduced by Lotus in 2000 as a limited edition, unique, Elise based sports car for the track, but also eligible for road use. It received a fantastic national and specialist press by rewriting the standards of performance and road holding for a production road car at the time. Limited to just 340 units globally, it showcased their engineering prowess and all cars were sold out at £35,000 each within 4 weeks of launch.

All cars were delivered in 2000/2001 and various upgrades then became available from the factory.

This particular car was kept by Lotus cars for potential development, although it was never actually used. Bizarrely in 2004 Lotus had to apply for individual vehicle type approval for this particular car to be sold (certificate of conformity in the history file) and road registered, as the original had run out in 2001! w w w.sil ve r s to n eau c t i o ns.com

Supplied new through Christopher Neil Sportscars, the car was first registered in May 2004. The history file confirms this background and also service bills and MoT’s confirm the very limited mileage of just 2,028 today.

It was supplied with factory upgrades that included a 190bhp engine upgrade, an ultra-close ratio gearbox, a stainless steel exhaust, adjustable dampers, four point racing harnesses and lightweight “Reverie” seats.

Today it is a sensibly guided, unique opportunity to buy the ‘last’ 340R to officially leave the factory. Ready to be enjoyed this Summer it has an MOT and road tax until October 2013.

All three of Ayrton Senna’s Formula One World Championships with McLaren were powered by Honda engines. It is no surprise then that he was their favourite son and was gifted an NSX which still remains in the possession of the Senna family. Senna had been involved with the on-going development of the car and his recommendations had been implemented in the production process, most notably the stiffening of the aluminium monocoque, a production car first. The Honda NSX was an engineering masterpiece with the famous Honda VTEC engine technology and handling that surpassed all its supercar rivals.

Produced between 1957 and 1961 the XK150 was the final evolution of the XK120 and 140 range that had put Jaguar firmly on the map as a world class sports car producer.

The ‘S’ version was the pinnacle of the range, as was the Roadster version, the 3.4 straight six engine giving 250bhp from three 2 inch SU carburettors and a straight ported cylinder head. All this gave a 0-60 of 7.8 seconds and a top speed of 132mph, the fastest production car of its day.

Supplied new in September 1958 through Jaguar Cars New York, this particularly rare Roadster was bought by a Mr. JJ Dolce of Salt Lake City, Utah. He was a speed enthusiast who then proceeded to enter what was then the world’s fastest production car for the Bonneville Speed Trial of 1959. His new acquisition had covered just 500 miles when he dropped the clutch at the start line... and it was to cover

w w w.sil ve r s to n eau c t i o ns.com

very few more miles as he proceeded to lose control and subsequently barrel roll the car on the famous Salt Flats!

The remains of the car were subsequently purchased by Mario Carafanello in 1960, who dry stored it for the next 40 years. As the classic market rose, fell and rose again the existence of this low mileage car came to a head in 2000 when it was acquired by UK classic restorer Mike Ball of Beacon Garage (car restorers owned by the same family since 1923) and bodywork guru, Ray Miles, of the DMR repair centre. Being experienced chaps they then, wisely, traced the original owner, JJ Dolce, and asked him to confirm legally both the mileage and the history of the car by making out an affidavit that was duly signed by a Notary Public. This accompanies the car in the comprehensive history file and the whole story is told in full in the September ‘09 edition of the magazine ‘Jaguar World’, copies of which are also available with the car.

The complete and comprehensive story of the following nine year restoration programme is best told by the article in the Jaguar World magazine. Suffice to say that every nut and bolt that could be re-used was, and every new part was sourced with great care and attention to detail to preserve the originality, integrity and authenticity of the car. There was no corrosion in any part of the original car, even the brake calipers ‘were like taking parts out of

The gearbox and clutch were examined and found to be ‘factory fresh’. Inside the gearbox casing - ‘the red protective coating on the casting could have been applied the week before as it was so good. As a precaution all bearings were replaced and, of course, so was the three part clutch’.

The challenge of restoring and rebuilding the car is very comprehensively covered by the Jaguar World article, as are the challenges of getting all the panels ‘barrel straight’

and ‘perfect fit and shut lines’, all made doubly tricky on black shiny new paintwork. The car was finally finished in time for its first public appearance at the JEC anniversary meeting at Thoresby Hall in June 2009.

The car, when driven by Jaguar World after this event, was said to drive ‘perfectly’ and ‘pulled up as square as any’ and ‘did not have a single squeak or rattle’.

In short - this concours car with an incredible and absolutely genuine 580 miles on the clock offers a totally unique opportunity to own a magnificent piece of correctly documented Jaguar history. It has a fantastic and fascinating story to tell and will enhance any serious collection with huge long term investment opportunities.

In 1962 Ford introduced the Anglia Super to the range with a higher level of equipment. The engine was increased to 1198cc and it now came with the all synchromesh Cortina four speed gearbox.

Offered here is an FIA Anglia that conforms to homologation papers for a December 1964, 1200cc Ford Anglia 123E. It also has HTP papers. The extensive competition history of this car begins with successes in the UK as a rally car before being sold to the Belgian rally exponent, Patrice Wattine. It then won numerous events in the 1990’s and most notably, the Picardie Rally in France.

In 1994 the car returned to the UK where it continued in competitive rallying, coming runner-up in Class B in the 1997 Demon Tweeks Mobil 1 Historic Rally Championships.

After another short spell in the ownership of Wattine, the Anglia returned to the UK for the last time and was reissued with its original registration as seen today. Now set w w w.sil ve r s to n eau c t i o ns.com

Once acquired by our vendor he set about rebuilding the FIA Anglia to a standard which has made it competitive in the best historic race events. The shell incorporated four new original wings and door skins and was strengthened before being painted to high standard. The brand new Damico engine is only two races old and produces 138bhp at a conservative 7200rpm. The gearbox contains all new close ratio gears bearings and seals. Further ancillaries, exhaust, dynamo and wiring are all new. The inlet trumpet is period F3. The suspension has all been renewed or refurbished and the car corner-weighted by specialist, Alan Dent. It comes of course with its original Lotus wheels. The car is eligible for many Historic Touring Car Championships, especially the U2TC which it was built for. This is an excellent car for an invitation to The Goodwood Revival meetings. It has been prepared with the September Spa Six Hour Race in mind so it now has a new correct capacity fuel tank. It achieved fourth place on its last outing in a 2013 Appendix ‘K’ Touring Car race.

This is a very reliably engineered and nimble race car capable of achieving great results in some very prestigious events for a comparatively modest outlay.

The restoration was entrusted to two of the best UK VW specialists EvilBens and Trailerqueen restorations. The chassis was the first area to be restored; it was stripped down to every last nut and bolt and rebuilt with a fabricated air suspension beam with air bag mounts. This system allows the car to be run either at stock suspension height or lowered for the true Resto-Cal look. It was then painted in ‘base and clear’ to extreme show quality, nothing was powder coated, it was all professionally painted. Once completed the rebuild commenced and every nut, bolt and washer was sourced and replaced with stainless steel replacements, with a view to being displayed at the 2011 VolksWorld show.

What you’re looking at here is a fully restored and incredibly well detailed ‘65 Karmann Cabriolet. The subject of a meticulous build in California in 2006 and the property of our vendor since 2007, it has covered fewer than 3,000 miles in this time and, despite beautiful photography, it’s even better in the flesh. The car has been fully detailed, even underneath, and the result is breath-taking. Preferring a sportier Beetle than his original 1952 standard ‘Split’, this car, with its ‘slammed’ stance and big motor was sourced through Randy Carlson’s oldbug.com website by our vendor. It was then owned by Chris Morgan on the West Coast, USA. Chris is a recognised restorer and builder of V Dub’s and his work has appeared in the likes of Volksworld and Hot VW’s on numerous occasions.

Prior to its preparation it had been purchased from an old lady in San Francisco through eBay. The work included having the body and floor pan blasted, then doing all the

necessary repairs to the bodywork and finally painting in the special mix metallic blue hue. The floor pan was painted and detailed throughout with powder coated and zinc-plated components everywhere. To get the stance he was after a two-inch narrowed and adjustable beam was installed, along with a full complement of Koni shocks, rebuilt brakes and a set of polished EMPI-style 5-spoke wheels. The engine rebuild and preparation was undertaken by a company called Volks Werks in La Habra who created a strong running 1776cc motor with Gene Berg crank, Engle 110 cam, stock heads and dual 40IDF Webers. It is housed within a custom-made aluminium firewall and a set of satin blacked tin-ware, with several pieces handmade to be sure of a perfect fit. The transmission is a 3.88 ring and pinion for better cruising speed converted by KCR Transmissions, California.

An outright show-winner on numerous occasions, and the subject of many magazine features in Hot VW’s and Volksworld it is reluctantly offered for sale as our vendor sets about the restoration of his newly-acquired yet very first VW Beetle of 20 years ago.

Lot 475 >> 1962 Jaguar Mk II 3.8 Manual overdrive

The Jaguar Mk II is a handsome, powerful saloon - blessed with great handling - and built in Coventry between 1959 and 1967. It is a quick car, even by the standards of today, with 220bhp on tap and a 0-60mph time of 8.5seconds and a top speed of 125mph. When new it was the fastest four door in the world and soon gained an iconic status from both its racing pedigree and successes on the track and its equally high profile use as a prolific police car and, of course, the quicker ‘get-away’ drivers of the day!

The car benefits from a recent comprehensive engine rebuild and a complete strip down to a bare shell. All the suspension has been rebuilt with new springs and shock absorbers and the fuel tank and lines have been replaced.

The brakes have been upgraded with new master cylinders, new servo, front Coopercraft calipers and a rear ‘XJ’ brake caliper conversion.

1972 Alfa Romeo Montreal Registration: VHJ 181L Chassis Number: AR1427315 Engine Number: AR0066402227 Estimate (£): 16,000 - 22,000

In 1967 Alfa Romeo dipped its toe into the Supercar sector by launching the Montreal, named after the Montreal Expo where it made its debut.

Initially fitted with Alfa’s four cylinder, twin cam engine, a 1,779cc unit, by the time the Montreal was launched for a limited production run at the 1970 Geneva Motor Show, this had changed to an all-new V8 quad cam racing engine with dry sump lubrication taken from the successful Type 33 sports racer and mated to a 5 speed ZF gearbox . An altogether rather more appropriate power plant for such an exotic machine. With a capacity of 2,593cc, the V8 featured twin overhead camshafts per bank and produced, via Alfa Romeo/Spica fuel injection and Bosch electronic ignition, 200bhp at 6,500rpm. This provided superb performance with a top speed of 137mph and 0-60mph in just 7.6 seconds. w w w.sil ve r s to n eau c t i o ns.com

This fine left hand drive example has had only two previous owners. Manufactured on 14th October 1972 and sold new by Alfa Romeo Brussels on 17th October 1972.

The original colour was Luci del Bosco Metallizato, but was resprayed to a high standard in attractive White in 1999.

The current owner purchased the car on 10 March 2007 and all major mechanical components are understood to be in very good order and functioning correctly. The vendor has developed the car for reliable daily use. To this end the Montreal has benefitted from new silicone water hoses, new steering and suspension joints, uprated radiator with 2 fans, adjustable top arm front suspension has been fitted, new Bilstein shock absorbers, a Classic Alfa handling kit fitted, uprated 4 pot front brake callipers, new front discs, new clutch plate, cover and bearing, full stainless steel exhaust and Compomotive wheels. The car also comes with a new Wilton carpet set (though currently not fitted).

A well-known car amongst Alfa Montreal Club members, the car has been a staple addition to the European Montreal scene, attending many annual European meets and not skipping a beat in the process. The Alfa Montreal has long been tipped as a ‘sleeper’ car amongst the team here at Silverstone Auctions. There’s no doubt in our minds that these cars will sometime soon have their day. Will this be the one to lead the march?...

Midlands based legendary BTCC Team, Eurotech, has been run very successfully by Mike Jordan since the late 1980’s.

Today his driver line-up includes his rapid son, Andy Jordan, and together they have represented Honda in Touring Cars as the most successful private team to back up the ‘Works’ factory supported Yuasa Hondas. Beating both privateers and most of the ‘Works’ teams on a regular basis has become the norm at Eurotech and it is their professionalism and attention to detail that sets them apart from their competitors.

It is a very clean shell with no accident damage and built to a very high ‘Eurotech’ standard as the pictures will show, especially if you click on them to enlarge.

Great value and unique!

This particular right hand drive car was converted to semi-race spec for use on sponsor’s promotional days at the circuit, allowing clients to be driven round in a very similar car to the actual BTCC cars.

1988 Porsche 911 930 Turbo Targa Registration: F298 WDE Chassis Number: TBC Engine Number: TBC Estimate (£): 35,000 - 40,000

The Porsche 930 Turbo was a genuine ‘Supercar’ that defined the seventies and eighties. Registered August 1988, this is a ‘J’ Series car making it one of the very last with the original 4-speed gearbox. Being a Targa it is the rarest of all the 930 Turbo derivatives. This is one of just 58 UK righthand drive cars that were built in the three year production.

Besides its Targa roof what’s really special about this Marine Blue Metallic 930 Turbo is its fully warranted and almost unheard of 35,000mile history. This is something very rare for a 1980’s Porsche. How on earth its handful of owners have managed to resist its 320bhp capacity and Turbopowered performance is beyond us, but there is clear evidence that this has been a cherished car throughout its life. Performance upgrades to this 930 include a rebuilt K27-7200 Rarly Turbo, Weltmiester Intercooler and 1.0 bar boost spring, Rarly sports exhaust and sports headers, w w w.sil ve r s to n eau c t i o ns.com

battery isolation switch, new clutch and new synchros and dogs. All this results in a huge reduction in turbo lag and increased performance. Suspension is courtesy of Weltmeister front tower brace and Bilstein rear shock absorbers.

Interior options include electric heated seats in Linen Leather with blue piping, light-coloured carpets, power locks, electric seats & windows plus the correct cassette/ radio player. The spare wheel is unused along with the factory compressor and all the wheels are 16” one-piece 7J/9J Fuchs alloys.

For those in the know this is a very special car indeed and, subject to careful maintenance and restrained use, it is certainly ‘one-to-watch’ for the future. A popular car globally, we anticipate strong overseas interest in this vehicle on auction day. Offered with UK V5C and MoT test certificate to April 2014, our transport agents will be pleased to help you with shipping should you require it.

The Chevrolet Corvette C2 was built between 1963-1967 as a contender in the ‘muscle car’ battle with Ford. Introducing a new name, “Sting Ray”, the 1963 model was the first year a Corvette Coupé was made and featured a distinctive tapering rear. The Sting Ray featured hidden headlamps, non-functional hood vents, and independent rear suspension. Power output for 1963 was 360 bhp, which was raised to 375 bhp in 1964. On 1964 models the decorative hood vents were eliminated.

The Silverstone Classic Sale

This 1966 Stingray has been under the same ownership for 23 years having been purchased in 1990 in the USA by our vendor. As an American working in England the car was kept in the USA for use as a weekend car on his occasional trip back home.

It wasn’t until 1996 that the car was shipped to the UK and upon arrival a thorough rebuild was undertaken in 1997.

This consisted of a mechanical rebuild of the suspension along with restoration of the chassis. Since then the car has been well maintained and cared for, and benefits from a recent respray just last year. In more recent years the car has remained largely unused and as such the vendor is reluctantly offering this lovely American classic for sale.

Coming from long term caring ownership this Stingray is presented in great condition and is ready to be enjoyed by the next owner. w w w .silver s toneauc t ions.com

1974 Innocenti Mini Cooper 1300 Registration: NWV 115P Chassis Number: TBC Engine Number: TBC Estimate (£): 8,000 - 12,000

The Innocenti Mini Cooper Export to give it its proper title, is essentially the Leyland Cooper S, but in left hand drive guise and produced for the overseas market. In 1920 Ferdinando Innocenti established the Innocenti Italian machinery works that grew famous for producing the iconic Lambretta scooters as well as a range of automobiles, mainly those of British origin.

One such Innocenti is offered here, and what a car it is.

This has been professionally and expertly restored to better than new condition over a handful of years, finally being completed in 2011 and providing since then 15,000 miles of joyful ownership. Being sold simply to fund the build of another Innocenti restoration, the vendor derives great pleasure from restoring these vehicles, despite the uneconomical cost of his hobby! For such a small car the cost to restore one properly can be eye-wateringly high. w w w.sil ve r s to n eau c t i o ns.com

Totally restored back to bare-metal and repainted in Beige Savia with black roof just two years ago, and with a brand new restored black & grey interior, the resulting car was worthy of a five-page feature in the October 2011 issue of ‘Classic and Sports Car’ magazine, and rightly so. Period correct to ‘S’ 1275cc spec with twin tanks, the output from the potent little engine is actually the same as that of the 1293cc.

Here is a lovely car that can be bought at a sensible guide price and immediately enjoyed with none of the headache and heartache that can come from undertaking your own restoration. A proven car with attractive mileage and photographic evidence of its pedigree, what’s not to like?

Lot 481 >> 1976 F-100 pick up truck

In 1976 the F-series became the best-selling truck in America, a position it has continued to hold ever since.

This generation is noted for the durability of the body panels as Ford used extensive amounts of galvanized sheet metal to fight corrosion. The first styling facelift to the 1973-generation Ford F-Series light-duty trucks showed up for 1976, when a new grille and squarish headlamp bezels appeared.

We are informed by the vendor that this particular truck lived for many years with its owner in New Mexico and, judging by its amazing condition it has never seen a day of hard work in its entire life. The original beige paintwork is in superb original order and gleams beautifully in the sunshine. What makes this truck so special is that it appears

to be totally original and has never been restored and has a warranted mileage of 73479 miles ( the truck is in occasional use hence the speedo reading in the picture being lower). It is almost impossible to find a 1976 Ford F100 of this quality, let alone to find one here in the UK. We are informed it is an absolute delight to drive, drop the gear-lever into drive and this truck motors smoothly away. You’re never in any doubt that there’s an iconic V8 up front, the steering is fingertip light and extremely positive, it’s the same with the brakes, which pull up quickly and without fuss. If you are looking for an original F100 with a beautiful patina associated with 37 years of careful ownership, then look no further, sold with a lengthy MOT this really is an American icon.

This is quite possibly the nicest classic Ford F100 money can buy. Totally original and un-molested, this top of the range Explorer truck has a fabulous list of factory options including automatic transmission, power steering, power disc brakes and air conditioning. It even has the chrome side rails! Additionally it has a super set of alloys and a performance dual exhaust system giving it a deep purposeful sound track. The V8 fires instantly with more of an American style roar but settles to a more refined burble once on the open road. It drives as you would expect, taut and precise, the brakes pull up straight and without drama and sustained ‘cruising’ is this truck’s forte.

2013 sees the 50th anniversary of the iconic Porsche 911 and the ever popular design continues to evolve right up to the current day. In 1969 the second generation of the car, known as the ‘B’ series, was introduced which featured an increase in the wheelbase from 2,211millimetres to 2,268.

The car was rebadged as the Porsche 911 T and offered originally as a 2.0 litre, and later on in production as a 2.2 or 2.4.

This car is one of the original long wheel base 2.0 litre ‘T’ models from 1969, built in left hand drive and giving a reliable 170bhp from its flat six cylinder engine. It was the lengthening of the wheelbase that helped overcome the ‘snap over-steer’ for which the earlier generation of cars had become renowned.

Finished in its original colour of Oxford blue with black leather and retaining the original engine and gearbox, the car is presented as a highly original and unmolested example. Complete with original Fuchs alloy wheels the car looks and drives today as it did when launched. It offers a chance to own a period car that has not undergone updates or been involved in creating a replica of a later car. One for the serious collector and enthusiast, it retains all its original features both inside and out and appears to have been well kept and maintained, rather than restored, crashed or updated.

Prices in this sector of the market are recently starting to lift as people realise the rarity of original cars that remain faithful to the original factory specification. This ‘matching numbers’ car therefore offers fun classic car ownership, combined with legendary Porsche reliability and build quality. There is also the reassurance of a long term investment opportunity.

1973 Jensen Interceptor Registration: FWW 73L Chassis Number: 1368154 Engine Number: 3C11125 Estimate (ÂŁ): 15,000 - 20,000

The Jensen Interceptor was a sporting GT-class car, handbuilt in the UK by Jensen Motors between 1966 and 1976.

The car broke with a Jensen tradition by having a steel body-shell instead of a glass-reinforced plastic one and by having the body designed by an outside firm, Carrozzeria Touring of Italy, the firm more recognisably associated with the likes of Aston Martin, Lamborghini, Maserati and Alfa Romeo. The Mark II Interceptor was announced in October 1969 with revised frontal styling and vented disc brakes, and shortly afterwards, in 1971, came the Mark III. It had revised seats, fully cast alloy wheels plus some other improvements.

Pound for pound it is hard to imagine a senior league GT that delivers better value than the Interceptor, especially when compared to the equivalent Aston. This Interceptor’s combination of genuine luxury, continent-traversing speed, whispering noise levels and sustained push between w w w.sil ve r s to n eau c t i o ns.com

100mph and 150mph is a bit special. This particular car has enormous presence, you don’t so much steer an Interceptor as command it, as if at the controls of an executive jet. The dashboard reinforces that feeling with its aircraft cockpit inspired circular instruments, another way to make you feel different. The interior is in good condition and has aged nicely.

Off the mark, this Jensen impresses with both refinement and speed. The mild V8 throb-just evident at idletranslates into a turbine like thrum with a shove of your right foot. We are informed by the vendor that oil pressure sits in the middle of the gauge, there is a healthy charge, and the critical temp gauge sits at exactly half way thanks to the addition of twin fans to aid cooling. The vendor informs us that the car drives without fault and is an absolute pleasure to drive. The vendor also tells us that recent expenditure includes replacement stainless steel exhausts, replacement brake discs, calipers, pads, brake master cylinder, front springs and shock absorbers. The quality of the paintwork is exceptional thanks to recent expenditure that has kept this stunning car looking resplendent in its original black coachwork. The structure appears straight and solid and the panel fit is excellent.

This is a car for the plutocrat who wants to drive himself, Jensen is a marque that refuses to die. These were, and still are, special cars built to a great tradition of craftsmanship, interest in them has rarely been higher and rightly so.

During the seventies Formula Ford was the championship where you began your ‘stairway to heaven’ as an aspiring race driver. There was a plethora of manufacturers ready to supply front runners with their products and watch the sales roll in. It was a good business with very healthy markets in the UK, Europe and the States aided by fledgling race schools. The Formula guaranteed close racing with virtually similar power outputs from the Ford 1600cc Kent Crossflow, and ‘control tyres’ from Firestone . The advantage had to be mainly in the chassis and the ‘one to have’ changed almost monthly. Manufacturers included Merlyn ,Crosslé, Dulon, Lotus, Hawke, Royale and Elden. The end of season highlight was the Formula Ford Festival at Brands Hatch where the manufacturers were very eager to show their chassis off with engine builders supplying their best units.

The Colin Chapman designed Lotus 23B is a classic sports racing car that made its debut in 1962 and went on to extraordinary racing success all over the world.

So dominant was it that the French ACO banned it from appearing at Le Mans (!), knowing that nothing would have had the capability to keep up with it at the time in its class.

This Mk23B is probably the most original car that Lotus produced of that model, with a known history and excellent well documented provenance. It has been owned and run by various distinguished Lotus and historic enthusiasts - including Paul Matty, Neil Twyman ( for David Cook) , Ian Ritchie, Sean Mclurg and Anthony Hancock. It was delivered new to a Belgian Lotus dealer in 1963 but returned to the UK in 1970, when it was clad in a GT body and raced as a “Merlin” in road going sports-car events. It was too successful and dominant in the series which lead w w w.sil ve r s to n eau c t i o ns.com

to the founder and owner of Marcos Cars, Jem Marsh, eventually protesting the car as he had recognised it as a Lotus 23B when he sat behind it on the grid! Later it was acquired by Lotus enthusiast and racing guru, Paul Matty, who found the car to be remarkably original. He hillclimbed it with success and later applied for FIA Historic papers, recalling that the FIA delegate sent to inspect it, Alan Putt, described it as the most original 23B that he had ever seen at the time.

Raced extensively ever since, it has more recently appeared at the Goodwood Revival twice in the ‘Madgwick Cup’ where it has finished 7th and 3rd overall. It has also been raced extensively throughout Europe in the current ‘Masters Series’ with excellent results and additionally appeared in the HSCC Guards Trophy as well as the Snetterton Three Hour Race. It is a consistent front running car.

Currently prepared by noted team- Wren Classics - it features a ‘Connaught Engineering’ rebuilt 1600cc Lotus twin-cam engine (that was originally Smirthwaite prepared) and a Hewland Mk9 gearbox. Sold with some spares (wheels and a lightweight body kit) FIA/HTP papers and an extremely comprehensive history file that includes many period photos, the car is now on the button and ready to go out and win.

Often regarded as the last of the real Porsches, the discontinuation of the 993 in 1998 marked the last of the air-cooled versions. Introduced in late 1993 it gained a more rounded style to the bumpers to that of the outgoing 964 and the rear arches became wider to accommodate the wider track improving handling. The interior noise levels were reduced and the ride quality improved. The six-speed gearbox became a first for a production 911.Dual flow exhaust, larger cross drilled brakes and improved steering were just a few of the other improvements.

He won the championship but had moved to Manor Motorsport after four races. In 2000 he won the series and was testing for the Sauber F1 Team who signed him for 2001. He went on to race for McLaren, Ferrari and currently the Renault powered Lotus. Very much an individual he bucks the norm of current F1 drivers, w w w.sil ve r s to n eau c t i o ns.com

considered high risk for media interviews and vocal to over-informative race engineers on the radio! He has entered snowmobile races and other events under the pseudonym ‘’James Hunt’’, as recognition of their parallel lifestyles.

On offer is Kimi Räikkönens first UK single seater, it is the car that was the first stepping stone for the future World Champion and the character that has endeared himself to millions of F1 fans around the globe. It is in the sponsor’s livery that appeared when the car was run by Haywood Racing in the winter of 1999 and it remains eligible for F4, Monoposto, Hillclimbing or Sprints.

It benefits from a recently rebuilt 175 bhp (dyno figure) MASS engine that has seen very little use. It has had a recent leak-down test that produced perfect results. It comes with an Omex 600 management system, a Mk.9 Hewland gearbox. It has also been rewired recently and a new dash fitted (the original Formula Renault one included). Furthermore Räikkönen’s test session sheets and set up data are included with this Lot. This represents a great opportunity to own the first race car used by a charismatic future World Champion, eligible and ready for use or perhaps as a collector’s item.
