(b) The Seller has complied with all requirements relating to any export or import of the Lot as may be required, and has notified Coys in writing of any failure to comply with such requirements by the Seller or any previous owner of the Lot; (c) The Seller has notified Coys in writing of any material alterations to the Lot of which the Seller is aware and of any concerns expressed by third parties in relation to the authenticity, provenance, origin, age, condition or quality of the Lot and has provided Coys with all such information in the Seller’s possession; (d) In the case of a Motor Vehicle which may be lawfully used on a public road, complies with all statutory provisions and that there is in force any test certificate required by law in relation to such use, or the Seller has notified Coys in writing that any such vehicle cannot lawfully be used on a public road; (e) The Seller warrants that the information about the Lot given to Coys, including (for the avoidance of doubt and without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing) all information set out in the Auction Entry Form, and statements made about it, is true 7.2 The Seller of a Lot not in the possession of Coys on its premises or under its control warrants and undertakes that the Lot will be available and in a deliverable state on demand by the Buyer; . 7.3 The Seller hereby acknowledges that Coys has entered into this contract in reliance on the representations set out in Conditions 7.1(a) to (e) and the information set out in the Auction Entry Form. 7.4 The Seller shall indemnify Coys against any and all actions, claims, actual costs (including legal and expert costs, fees and disbursements), demands, expenses, fines, liabilities, losses, penalties and proceedings arising out of the falsity of any of the warranties and representations set out in Conditions 7.1(a) to (f). 7.5. If Coys has reasonable cause for believing that the Seller is in breach of any one or more of the warranties set out in this Condition 7, Coys may by giving notice in writing to the Seller decline to sell the Lot, and the Seller shall be liable to Coys as though the Seller had withdrawn the lot from sale without Coys consent. If the Lot is in the possession of Coys, it may retain it until any sums due to Coys are paid, the cost of storage being borne by the Seller. 7.6 The Seller shall further indemnify Coys in respect of any actual legal or other costs reasonably incurred by it in investigating any claim concerning the ownership of a Lot and/or the Seller’s right to sell the Lot, the accuracy of the description of the Lot contained in the Catalogue or in defending any claim relating thereto, and Coys shall be entitled to withhold the amount of such costs from any payment due to be made to the Seller in accordance with Condition 2.

8. VEHICLE REGISTRATION NUMBERS 8.1. If the Seller wishes to sell any Motor Vehicle but to retain the right to the registration number of the Vehicle (“VRN”) , it is the Seller’s responsibility to notify Coys in writing either on the Auction Entry Form or sooner. 8.2. It shall be the Seller’s responsibility to take all necessary steps to ensure that the current VRN is reserved and that a new number is allocated prior to the Motor Vehicle being sold at the Auction and if he does not do so, Coys shall not be responsible for any loss or damage whatsoever and howsoever arising (including for the avoidance of doubt arising out of Coys’ negligence) out of the Seller’s loss of the right to the VRN following the sale of the Vehicle. 8.3. Coys may, at its own discretion, (without any assumption of responsibility or duty towards the Seller or the Buyer) take such steps to facilitate the reservation or transfer of any particular registration number as it thinks fit in order to assist the Seller or Buyer but strictly on condition that no claim attaches to Coys for taking any such steps whether arising out of Coys’ negligence or any other cause whatsoever. 9. RESERVES 9.1. The Seller may place a reserve price (“Reserve”) on any Lot prior to the Auction and once placed by the Seller, it may not be changed without the written consent of Coys. All Lots will be sold without Reserve unless a Reserve has been agreed by Coys in writing. 9.2. Where a Reserve has been agreed, only Coys may bid on behalf of the Seller. If the Seller makes such bid, then the Auctioneer may knock the Lot down to the Seller without observing any Reserve and the Seller shall pay to Coys the Buyer’s Premium in addition to the Seller’s Commission and Expenses. 9.3. Where a Reserve is agreed, Coys may in its sole discretion sell a Lot for less than the Reserve but shall account to the Seller as if the Lot had been sold for the Reserve. 9.4. Where no Reserve has been placed, the Seller may bid either personally or through the agency of any person. 9.5. If no Reserve has been placed on a Lot, Coys shall not be held liable should the Lot be purchased for a price below any lowest estimated selling price of the Lot given in any Catalogue, save insofar as and limited to the extent that the same arises out of the actual fault or negligence of Coys. 10. COMMISSION AND EXPENSES 10.1. The parties hereby acknowledge that Coys shall be entitled to deduct from the Hammer Price a Seller’s Commission of 10% plus VAT (or, in the case of automobilia, 15% plus VAT) or such other sum agreed by Coys in writing, plus any Expenses, and any other sums due from the Seller to Coys. 10.2. The Buyer shall pay (and the Seller acknowledges Coys’ entitlement to) a Buyer’s Premium equal to 20% of the Hammer Price, plus VAT. 11. PHOTOGRAPHY AND ILLUSTRATIONS The Seller permits Coys without payment to photograph and make illustrations of any Lot and to use at its discretion any photograph or illustration of or in respect of a Lot supplied by the Seller, whether or not in conjunction with the Auction. The copyright in all photographs taken and illustrations made of any Lot by or on behalf of Coys shall be the absolute property of Coys. 12. COYS’ ESTIMATES AND DESCRIPTIONS 12.1. Coys make no warranty or representation as to the anticipated or likely selling price of any Lot. Any estimate given by Coys, whether written or oral and whether or not printed in any Catalogue for the Auction, as to the estimated selling price of any Lot is a statement of opinion only and may be subject to revision from time to time at Coys’ sole discretion and should not be relied upon as an indication of the actual selling price. 12.2. Coys shall not be liable to the Seller for any error or mis-statement in or omission from the description of any Lot in any Catalogue where:(a) Coys have been provided with such description by the Seller or any person on his behalf; or (b) Coys have provided the Seller with a copy of such description prior to publication of the Catalogue and neither the Seller nor any person on his behalf have notified Coys in writing within


seven days of any error or mis-statement in or omission from the description. 12.3. Any Motor Vehicle is sold as a collector’s item and not as a means of transport. Buyers are specifically warned that any vehicle sold as such may well have had parts replaced and paint renewed or be made up of parts from other vehicles the condition of which may be difficult to establish. Coys has to rely on information as to date, condition authenticity, maintenance, repairs and restoration provided by Sellers and does not, and cannot, undertake its own inspection of vehicles or other Lots to establish whether the vehicle or other Lot conforms with the description in the catalogue. It is the responsibility of the Buyer to carry out such inspection as he thinks necessary. Unless a vehicle is described as wholly original, the Buyer may not assume that all or any part of it is original. 12.4. No warranty is given by Coys as to the accuracy of the description of any Lot in any Catalogue or as to the age, authenticity, suitability, provenance, attribution, origin, condition, fitness for purpose, merchantable or satisfactory quality of any Lot or roadworthiness of any Motor Vehicle, and any warranties or conditions that would otherwise be implied by the Sale of Goods Act 1979 in relation to the foregoing are hereby expressly excluded. 12.5. Coys has no duty to the Seller to investigate the accuracy of the description of any Lot provided by or on behalf of the Seller. 13. WITHDRAWAL OF LOTS 13.1. The Seller may by notice in writing to Coys withdraw the Lot from the Auction. In the event of such withdrawal, the Seller shall within 14 days of withdrawal pay Coys the sums set out in this Condition 13. All such sums shall be payable to Coys as remuneration for the services performed by Coys down to the date of withdrawal, and not by way of penalty or liquidated damages. 13.2 In all cases of withdrawal, including under 7.5 above, the Seller shall be liable to pay Coys 10% of the estimated value of the Lot, notwithstanding that commission of a lesser, or no, amount had previously been agreed, to reflect the time, effort, loss of publicity and buyer’s premium suffered by Coys. The estimated value shall be the higher of:(a) The Seller’s estimate of value as previously notified to Coys or, if more than one figure, the highest figure or if none; (b) The value estimated in the Catalogue, or if more than one figure is given, the highest figure; (c) If none of the above apply such figure as Coys shall reasonably estimate as the value. (d) Plus in each case VAT on such fee and Expenses. 13.3. In the event that the Lot is withdrawn from the Auction after the publication of the Auction catalogue, the Seller shall in addition to the sum set out in Condition 13.2, be liable to pay Coys a further sum equal to the Buyer’s Premium (as defined in Condition 10.2 above) that would have been payable upon the Lot realising the aforesaid estimated value at Auction, plus VAT. 13.4. In the event that the Seller withdraws the Lot from the Auction, the Seller shall arrange for collection and removal of the Lot at his own expense within two working days after the date of withdrawal provided that the Seller may not collect the Lot unless and until any withdrawal fee payable under Conditions 13.2 and 13.3 shall have been paid in full. 14. UNSOLD LOTS 14.1 Where any Lot fails to sell at the Auction, Coys will have the sole and exclusive right to sell the Lot by private treaty within 14 days of the Auction date. These terms and conditions (including, for the avoidance of doubt, Condition 9 as to Reserves) shall govern any such sale by private treaty. 14.2. Unless Coys elects to sell the Lot by private treaty in accordance with Clause 14.1, the Seller shall arrange for the removal of any unsold Lot by 1.00 pm the day following the Auction or by such other time as agreed by Coys. 14.3. Failure to remove any unsold Lot pursuant to Condition 14.2 above will entitle Coys to charge the Seller a reasonable storage charge per day. The Seller shall further reimburse Coys for any reasonable removal, insurance and other expenses.

14.4. If within 28 days after the Auction the Seller fails to give instructions to Coys regarding the disposal of the Lot, Coys shall have the exclusive right at its election to: (a) sell the Lot by private treaty, or (b) by Auction without Reserve, in either case in accordance with these Conditions. In such case, Coys shall be entitled to deduct from any sale price all sums owing to Coys including the Seller’s Commission and any charges incurred under this Condition 14. 15. RISK AND INSURANCE 15.1 The Lot shall at all times remain at the risk of the Seller until ownership of the Lot passes from the Seller to the Buyer under these Conditions. At no time shall ownership of the Lot pass to Coys other than in accordance with clause 21.4(e)(iii). 15.2 Until such time as risk passes to the Buyer in accordance with Condition 18, responsibility for arranging insurance for the Lot shall remain with the Seller, whereupon it shall pass to the Buyer. In no case shall Coys undertake responsibility for arranging insurance. 15.3. Coys will not be liable for any injury, loss or damage caused by any Lot unless caused by the negligence of Coys, its employees or agents in the ordinary course of their duties to Coys or by the Seller’s negligence or other breach of the Conditions. The Seller or the Buyer (as appropriate) shall compensate Coys in full in respect of all claims and proceedings brought against Coys in respect of injury, loss or damage caused by the Seller’s or Buyer’s (as appropriate) negligence or breach of any obligation under the Conditions. 16. THE BUYER 16.1. The Buyer shall be the highest bidder at the Auction. The Buyer’s bid shall form the basis of the Hammer Price. Any dispute as to any bid shall be settled by the Auctioneer at his absolute discretion. 16.2. Every bidder shall be deemed to act as principal unless prior to the commencement of the Auction there is a written acceptance by Coys that a bidder acts as agent on behalf of the named principal, and that its principal has agreed to and/ or is bound by these Conditions; in which case he shall be jointly liable with the principal by these Conditions. 16.3. No person shall be entitled to bid at the Auction without first having completed and delivered to Coys a bidder’s registration form and bidders attention is drawn to the information in the Catalogue under the heading “General Information”. 17. ABSENTEE BIDS Whilst the interest of prospective Buyers are best served by attendance at the Auction, Coys will if so instructed execute bids on behalf of prospective bidders. Coys, its agents or employees shall not be responsible for any defaults beyond Coys’ control relating to telephone, fax or other absentee bids including without limitation any telecommunications fault or failure. 18. SALE 18.1. A contract of sale is made between the Seller and the Buyer on the acceptance of a bid by the fall of the Auctioneer’s hammer. Coys is not a party to the contract of sale and has no liability for any act or default by the Seller or the Buyer. 18.2. The Buyer shall :(a) Immediately upon a Lot is sold, give to Coys his name and address and, if so requested, proof of identity if he has not already done so; and (b) Pay to Coys as agent for the Seller the Purchase Price in accordance with Condition 20.1 unless credit terms have been agreed with Coys in writing before the Auction. 18.3. Full payment for all Lots must be made to Coys by means of bankers draft, cash, telegraphic transfer or debit card in pounds sterling or the currency in which the sale was conducted. Where the Buyer wishes to pay by cheque and Coys has agreed that the Buyer may do so, the Lot will not be released until the cheque has been cleared. 18.4. No Lot may be collected until the Purchase Price has been received by Coys and payments by a Buyer to Coys may be applied by Coys towards any sums due from that Buyer to Coys on any account whatsoever notwithstanding any directions to the contrary by the Buyer or his agent whether express or implied.

18.5. The ownership of the Lot will pass to the Buyer only when the Purchase Price in cleared funds has been received by Coys. 18.6. Immediately a Lot is sold the risk shall pass to the Buyer notwithstanding that possession will not be given and ownership will not pass to the Buyer before payment of the Purchase Price in full and Coys will not be responsible for any damage to or the loss or destruction of the Lot or any injury, loss or damage caused by the Lot unless caused by the negligence of or other breach of duty by Coys, its employees or agents in the ordinary course of their duties to Coys. The Buyer will compensate Coys in full in respect of all claims and proceedings brought against Coys in respect of any loss or damage to the Lot or injury, loss or damage caused by it not arising from the negligence of or other breach of duty by Coys, its employees or agents in the ordinary course of their duties to Coys. 19. VALUE ADDED TAX VAT payable by the Buyer on the Hammer Price may be refundable by Customs and Excise on proof of export, but Coys makes no warranties in this regard. 20. PAYMENT OF SALE PROCEEDS 20.1 Unless otherwise agreed in writing by both Coys and the Seller, the Buyer shall pay Coys forthwith and in any event no later than 35 days from the Auction the Purchase Price. 20.2. Coys shall pay the Net Sale Proceeds to the Seller not later than 35 days after the Auction, or within five working days after receiving cleared funds from the Buyer, whichever shall be the later. Coys shall be under no liability as a result of or arising out of any delay or failure by the Buyer in making payment. 20.3 Unless an alternative method of payment has been agreed by Coys in writing, payment of the Net Sale Proceeds shall be made by sending to the Seller a cheque drawn on Coys’ client account by first class post at the Seller’s risk. 20.4. Coys may in its discretion withhold remittance of the Net Sale Proceeds to the Seller until such time as the Seller has deposited with Coys the V5 registration document in the case of a UK registered vehicle or, in the case of an unregistered, or non-UK registered vehicle, the appropriate documents of title (ownership) relevant and appropriate to the country of registration of the vehicle, and any other documentation relating to the vehicle in the Seller’s possession or control which he agreed with Coys to supply. 21. BUYER’S DEFAULT 21.1 In the event that the Purchase Price is not duly paid in accordance with Condition 20.1, Coys may hold the Buyer in default and shall as against the Buyer (a “Defaulting Buyer”) have the following rights, in addition to those set out in Condition 21.4 below: (a) As agent for the Seller, to charge interest at a rate not exceeding 5% per annum above the Bank of England base rate on so much of the Purchase Price as remains due and unpaid; (b) To retain any Lot sold to the same Buyer at the same or any other Auction and to release it only after payment of the total amount due; (c) To reject or disregard any bid or bids made by or on behalf of the Defaulting Buyer at any future auction or to require payment of a deposit before any future bid made by or on behalf of that Buyer; (d) To apply any money due or to become due to the Defaulting Buyer in or towards settlement of the total amount due and to exercise a charge on any property of the Defaulting Buyer which is in Coys’ possession for any purpose. 21.2. If the Buyer continues to fail to make payment of the Purchase Price in full within 14 days of it falling due under Condition 20.1, Coys may (if so instructed by the Seller, or acting of its own motion in accordance with Condition 21.4 below) without prejudice to any other rights it may have, exercise one or more of the following additional remedies: (a) To institute proceedings against the Buyer in its own name, or in the name of the Seller for damages or specific performance for breach of the sale contract; (b) To institute proceedings against the Buyer in its own name in respect of the Buyer’s Premium and any other sums that the Buyer shall be liable to pay Coys;


(b) To cancel the sale of that or any other Lot sold to the Defaulting Buyer at the same or any other auction notwithstanding the total amount due in respect of such other Lot shall have been paid; (c) To re-sell the Lot or cause it to be resold by public auction or private sale. 21.3. If the Buyer fails or refuses to pay the Purchase Price in full within 35 days of the Auction, Coys will notify the Seller who may instruct Coys as to the appropriate course of action, including (where permitted under Clause 21.2) but not limited to one or more of the courses of action set out in Condition 21.4 below. Such notice will draw attention to the 14 day limit for the provision of instructions as set out in Condition 21.4 below. Coys shall if instructed take reasonable steps to assist the Seller but Coys shall be under no obligation to institute proceedings in its own name or personally incur any cost or expense. 21.4. In the absence of any written instructions from the Seller to Coys within 14 days of Coys’ notice to the Seller served in accordance with Condition 21.3 above then Coys shall in its sole discretion be entitled to do any of the following in its capacity as the Seller’s agent and with the Seller’s full authority:(a) To agree terms for the payment of the Purchase Price with the Buyer; (b) To remove, store and insure the Lot at the expense of the Buyer; (c) To settle claims and/or proceedings made by or against the Buyer on such terms as Coys shall at its absolute discretion think fit; (d) To take such steps as Coys shall at its absolute discretion consider necessary to collect the monies due from the Buyer; (e) Where appropriate to rescind and/or terminate the sale and in its sole discretion: (i) Return the Lot to the Seller, and distribute any monies received to the Buyer in accordance with Conditions 21.5 and/or 21.6; (ii) Offer the Lot for re-sale, by Auction or private treaty, with or without Reserve; (iii) Purchase the Lot itself at the Hammer Price or such other price as may be agreed with the Seller, in which case property in the Lot shall pass to Coys and Coys shall remit the Hammer Price to the Seller within fourteen days of its election less any sums payable pursuant to Condition 21.5 below; (f) To appoint a solicitor and/or other agent to pursue any of the courses of action referred to in sub-paragraphs (a) to (e) above and the Seller authorises Coys to take any of the courses referred to in this Condition 21.4, including the issue and prosecution of proceedings on the Seller’s behalf and in the Seller’s name. 21.5.

Lot 144

A chassis frame for a 1961 Ferrari 250 GT/E 2+2 Series 1 left hand drive. Stamped as Chassis No 2825GT. An ideal basis for a period Ferrari 250 tribute car.

Intended to extend Ferrari’s appeal to a sector of the market already contested by rivals Aston Martin and Maserati, the 250GTE 2+2 arrived in the summer of 1960. Ferrari’s first ‘four-seater’, the 250GTE 2+2 was directly descended from the most commercially successful Ferrari of its day, the 250GT. Launched in 1954, the latter featured a lighter and more-compact Colombo-designed 3.0-litre V12 in place of its Europa predecessor’s bulkier Lampredi unit. The 250GT chassis followed Ferrari’s established practice, being a multi-tubular frame tied together by oval main tubes, though the independent front suspension now employed coil springs instead of the transverse-leaf type. A four-speed, all-synchromesh gearbox transmitted power to the live rear axle while hydraulic drums all round looked after the braking. Disc brakes arrived late in 1959 and a four-speed-plus-overdrive gearbox the following year, and both these features were incorporated into the 250GTE from the start of production in 1960. Pininfarina’s brief had been to produce a ‘2+2’ without sacrificing the 250’s elegant good looks or sporting demeanour and the master carrozzier succeeded brilliantly with the GTE. By moving the engine, gearbox and steering gear forward and the fuel tank back, sufficient room was created for two occasional rear seats within the 250GT’s 2600mm wheelbase. The Tipo 128E outside-plug engine’s 240bhp ensured that there was no reduction in performance despite the inevitable gain in weight. A popular and highly profitable car for Ferrari, the 250GTE remained in production until 1963.

The parties hereby acknowledge that Coys shall be entitled to deduct from the Hammer Price a Seller’s Commission of 10% plus VAT (or, in the case of automobilia, 15% plus VAT) or such other sum agreed by Coys in writing, plus any Expenses, and any other sums due from the Seller to Coys. 10.2. The Buyer shall pay (and the Seller acknowledges Coys’ entitlement to) a Buyer’s Premium equal to 15% of the first £50,000 or €50,000 of the Hammer Price, and 12.5% upon such of the Hammer Price as exceeds £50,000 or €50,000, plus VAT. 11. PHOTOGRAPHY AND ILLUSTRATIONS The Seller permits Coys without payment to photograph and make illustrations of any Lot and to use at its discretion any photograph or illustration of or in respect of a Lot supplied by the Seller, whether or not in conjunction with the Auction. The copyright in all photographs taken and illustrations made of any Lot by or on behalf of Coys shall be the absolute property of Coys. 12. COYS’ ESTIMATES AND DESCRIPTIONS 12.1. Coys make no warranty or representation as to the anticipated or likely selling price of any Lot. Any estimate given by Coys, whether written or oral and whether or not printed in any Catalogue for the Auction, as to the estimated selling price of any Lot is a statement of opinion only and may be subject to revision from time to time at Coys’ sole discretion and should not be relied upon as an indication of the actual selling price. 12.2. Coys shall not be liable to the Seller for any error or mis-statement in or omission from the description of any Lot in any Catalogue where:(a) Coys have been provided with such description by the Seller or any person on his behalf; or (b) Coys have provided the Seller with a copy of such description prior to publication of the


Catalogue and neither the Seller nor any person on his behalf have notified Coys in writing within seven days of any error or mis-statement in or omission from the description. 12.3. Any Motor Vehicle is sold as a collector’s item and not as a means of transport. Buyers are specifically warned that any vehicle sold as such may well have had parts replaced and paint renewed or be made up of parts from other vehicles the condition of which may be difficult to establish. Coys has to rely on information as to date, condition authenticity, maintenance, repairs and restoration provided by Sellers and does not, and cannot, undertake its own inspection of vehicles or other Lots to establish whether the vehicle or other Lot conforms with the description in the catalogue. It is the responsibility of the Buyer to carry out such inspection as he thinks necessary. Unless a vehicle is described as wholly original, the Buyer may not assume that all or any part of it is original. 12.4. No warranty is given by Coys as to the accuracy of the description of any Lot in any Catalogue or as to the age, authenticity, suitability, provenance, attribution, origin, condition, fitness for purpose, merchantable or satisfactory quality of any Lot or roadworthiness of any Motor Vehicle, and any warranties or conditions that would otherwise be implied by the Sale of Goods Act 1979 in relation to the foregoing are hereby expressly excluded. 12.5. Coys has no duty to the Seller to investigate the accuracy of the description of any Lot provided by or on behalf of the Seller. 13. WITHDRAWAL OF LOTS 13.1. The Seller may by notice in writing to Coys withdraw the Lot from the Auction. In the event of such withdrawal, the Seller shall within 14 days of withdrawal pay Coys the sums set out in this Condition 13. All such sums shall be payable to Coys as remuneration for the services performed by Coys down to the date of withdrawal, and not by way of penalty or liquidated damages. 13.2 In all cases of withdrawal, including under 7.5 above, the Seller shall be liable to pay Coys 10% of the estimated value of the Lot, notwithstanding that commission of a lesser, or no, amount had previously been agreed, to reflect the time, effort, loss of publicity and buyer’s premium suffered by Coys. The estimated value shall be the higher of:(a) The Seller’s estimate of value as previously notified to Coys or, if more than one figure, the highest figure or if none; (b) The value estimated in the Catalogue, or if more than one figure is given, the highest figure; (c) If none of the above apply such figure as Coys shall reasonably estimate as the value. (d) Plus in each case VAT on such fee and Expenses. 13.3. In the event that the Lot is withdrawn from the Auction after the publication of the Auction catalogue, the Seller shall in addition to the sum set out in Condition 13.2, be liable to pay Coys a further sum equal to the Buyer’s Premium (as defined in Condition 10.2 above) that would have been payable upon the Lot realising the aforesaid estimated value at Auction, plus VAT. 13.4. In the event that the Seller withdraws the Lot from the Auction, the Seller shall arrange for collection and removal of the Lot at his own expense within two working days after the date of withdrawal provided that the Seller may not collect the Lot unless and until any withdrawal fee payable under Conditions 13.2 and 13.3 shall have been paid in full. 14. UNSOLD LOTS 14.1 Where any Lot fails to sell at the Auction, Coys will have the sole and exclusive right to sell the Lot by private treaty within 14 days of the Auction date. These terms and conditions (including, for the avoidance of doubt, Condition 9 as to Reserves) shall govern any such sale by private treaty. 14.2. Unless Coys elects to sell the Lot by private treaty in accordance with Clause 14.1, the Seller shall arrange for the removal of any unsold Lot by 1.00 pm the day following the Auction or by such other time as agreed by Coys. 14.3. Failure to remove any unsold Lot pursuant to Condition 14.2 above will entitle Coys to charge the Seller a reasonable storage charge per day. The Seller shall further reimburse Coys for

any reasonable removal, insurance and other expenses. 14.4. If within 28 days after the Auction the Seller fails to give instructions to Coys regarding the disposal of the Lot, Coys shall have the exclusive right at its election to: (a) sell the Lot by private treaty, or (b) by Auction without Reserve, in either case in accordance with these Conditions. In such case, Coys shall be entitled to deduct from any sale price all sums owing to Coys including the Seller’s Commission and any charges incurred under this Condition 14. 15. RISK AND INSURANCE 15.1 The Lot shall at all times remain at the risk of the Seller until ownership of the Lot passes from the Seller to the Buyer under these Conditions. At no time shall ownership of the Lot pass to Coys other than in accordance with clause 21.4(e)(iii). 15.2 Until such time as risk passes to the Buyer in accordance with Condition 18, responsibility for arranging insurance for the Lot shall remain with the Seller, whereupon it shall pass to the Buyer. In no case shall Coys undertake responsibility for arranging insurance. 15.3. Coys will not be liable for any injury, loss or damage caused by any Lot unless caused by the negligence of Coys, its employees or agents in the ordinary course of their duties to Coys or by the Seller’s negligence or other breach of the Conditions. The Seller or the Buyer (as appropriate) shall compensate Coys in full in respect of all claims and proceedings brought against Coys in respect of injury, loss or damage caused by the Seller’s or Buyer’s (as appropriate) negligence or breach of any obligation under the Conditions. 16. THE BUYER 16.1. The Buyer shall be the highest bidder at the Auction. The Buyer’s bid shall form the basis of the Hammer Price. Any dispute as to any bid shall be settled by the Auctioneer at his absolute discretion. 16.2. Every bidder shall be deemed to act as principal unless prior to the commencement of the Auction there is a written acceptance by Coys that a bidder acts as agent on behalf of the named principal, and that its principal has agreed to and/ or is bound by these Conditions; in which case he shall be jointly liable with the principal by these Conditions. 16.3. No person shall be entitled to bid at the Auction without first having completed and delivered to Coys a bidder’s registration form and bidders attention is drawn to the information in the Catalogue under the heading “General Information”. 17. ABSENTEE BIDS Whilst the interest of prospective Buyers are best served by attendance at the Auction, Coys will if so instructed execute bids on behalf of prospective bidders. Coys, its agents or employees shall not be responsible for any defaults beyond Coys’ control relating to telephone, fax or other absentee bids including without limitation any telecommunications fault or failure. 18. SALE 18.1. A contract of sale is made between the Seller and the Buyer on the acceptance of a bid by the fall of the Auctioneer’s hammer. Coys is not a party to the contract of sale and has no liability for any act or default by the Seller or the Buyer. 18.2. The Buyer shall :(a) Immediately upon a Lot is sold, give to Coys his name and address and, if so requested, proof of identity if he has not already done so; and (b) Pay to Coys as agent for the Seller the Purchase Price in accordance with Condition 20.1 unless credit terms have been agreed with Coys in writing before the Auction. 18.3. Full payment for all Lots must be made to Coys by means of bankers draft, cash, telegraphic transfer or debit card in pounds sterling or the currency in which the sale was conducted. Where the Buyer wishes to pay by cheque and Coys has agreed that the Buyer may do so, the Lot will not be released until the cheque has been cleared. 18.4. No Lot may be collected until the Purchase Price has been received by Coys and payments by a Buyer to Coys may be applied by Coys towards any sums due from that Buyer to Coys on any account whatsoever notwithstanding any

directions to the contrary by the Buyer or his agent whether express or implied. 18.5. The ownership of the Lot will pass to the Buyer only when the Purchase Price in cleared funds has been received by Coys. 18.6. Immediately a Lot is sold the risk shall pass to the Buyer notwithstanding that possession will not be given and ownership will not pass to the Buyer before payment of the Purchase Price in full and Coys will not be responsible for any damage to or the loss or destruction of the Lot or any injury, loss or damage caused by the Lot unless caused by the negligence of or other breach of duty by Coys, its employees or agents in the ordinary course of their duties to Coys. The Buyer will compensate Coys in full in respect of all claims and proceedings brought against Coys in respect of any loss or damage to the Lot or injury, loss or damage caused by it not arising from the negligence of or other breach of duty by Coys, its employees or agents in the ordinary course of their duties to Coys. 19. VALUE ADDED TAX VAT payable by the Buyer on the Hammer Price may be refundable by Customs and Excise on proof of export, but Coys makes no warranties in this regard. 20. PAYMENT OF SALE PROCEEDS 20.1 Unless otherwise agreed in writing by both Coys and the Seller, the Buyer shall pay Coys forthwith and in any event no later than 35 days from the Auction the Purchase Price. 20.2. Coys shall pay the Net Sale Proceeds to the Seller not later than 35 days after the Auction, or within five working days after receiving cleared funds from the Buyer, whichever shall be the later. Coys shall be under no liability as a result of or arising out of any delay or failure by the Buyer in making payment. 20.3 Unless an alternative method of payment has been agreed by Coys in writing, payment of the Net Sale Proceeds shall be made by sending to the Seller a cheque drawn on Coys’ client account by first class post at the Seller’s risk. 20.4. Coys may in its discretion withhold remittance of the Net Sale Proceeds to the Seller until such time as the Seller has deposited with Coys the V5 registration document in the case of a UK registered vehicle or, in the case of an unregistered, or non-UK registered vehicle, the appropriate documents of title (ownership) relevant and appropriate to the country of registration of the vehicle, and any other documentation relating to the vehicle in the Seller’s possession or control which he agreed with Coys to supply. 21. BUYER’S DEFAULT 21.1 In the event that the Purchase Price is not duly paid in accordance with Condition 20.1, Coys may hold the Buyer in default and shall as against the Buyer (a “Defaulting Buyer”) have the following rights, in addition to those set out in Condition 21.4 below: (a) As agent for the Seller, to charge interest at a rate not exceeding 5% per annum above the Bank of England base rate on so much of the Purchase Price as remains due and unpaid; (b) To retain any Lot sold to the same Buyer at the same or any other Auction and to release it only after payment of the total amount due; (c) To reject or disregard any bid or bids made by or on behalf of the Defaulting Buyer at any future auction or to require payment of a deposit before any future bid made by or on behalf of that Buyer; (d) To apply any money due or to become due to the Defaulting Buyer in or towards settlement of the total amount due and to exercise a charge on any property of the Defaulting Buyer which is in Coys’ possession for any purpose. 21.2. If the Buyer continues to fail to make payment of the Purchase Price in full within 14 days of it falling due under Condition 20.1, Coys may (if so instructed by the Seller, or acting of its own motion in accordance with Condition 21.4 below) without prejudice to any other rights it may have, exercise one or more of the following additional remedies: (a) To institute proceedings against the Buyer in its own name, or in the name of the Seller for damages or specific performance for breach of the sale contract; (b) To institute proceedings against the Buyer in its own name in respect of the Buyer’s Premium

If the Buyer fails or refuses to pay the Purchase Price in full within 35 days of the Auction, Coys will notify the Seller who may instruct Coys as to the appropriate course of action, including (where permitted under Clause 21.2) but not limited to one or more of the courses of action set out in Condition 21.4 below. Such notice will draw attention to the 14 day limit for the provision of instructions as set out in Condition 21.4 below. Coys shall if instructed take reasonable steps to assist the Seller but Coys shall be under no obligation to institute proceedings in its own name or personally incur any cost or expense. 21.4. In the absence of any written instructions from the Seller to Coys within 14 days of Coys’ notice to the Seller served in accordance with Condition 21.3 above then Coys shall in its sole discretion be entitled to do any of the following in its capacity as the Seller’s agent and with the Seller’s full authority:(a) To agree terms for the payment of the Purchase Price with the Buyer; (b) To remove, store and insure the Lot at the expense of the Buyer; (c) To settle claims and/or proceedings made by or against the Buyer on such terms as Coys shall at its absolute discretion think fit; (d) To take such steps as Coys shall at its absolute discretion consider necessary to collect the monies due from the Buyer; (e) Where appropriate to rescind and/or terminate the sale and in its sole discretion: (i) Return the Lot to the Seller, and distribute any monies received to the Buyer in accordance with Conditions 21.5 and/or 21.6; (ii) Offer the Lot for re-sale, by Auction or private treaty, with or without Reserve; (iii) Purchase the Lot itself at the Hammer Price or such other price as may be agreed with the Seller, in which case property in the Lot shall pass to Coys and Coys shall remit the Hammer Price to the Seller within fourteen days of its election less any sums payable pursuant to Condition 21.5 below; (f) To appoint a solicitor and/or other agent to pursue any of the courses of action referred to in sub-paragraphs (a) to (e) above and the Seller authorises Coys to take any of the courses referred to in this Condition 21.4, including the issue and prosecution of proceedings on the Seller’s behalf and in the Seller’s name. 21.5. In the event that the sale contract for the Lot is rescinded because of the Buyer’s default aforesaid, whether as a result of the Seller’s instruction or Coys’ action taken under Condition 21.4, the Seller shall nonetheless (and without prejudice to any claim that he may have against the Buyer) be liable to pay to Coys the following sums: (a) Legal or other costs on an indemnity basis reasonably incurred by Coys in connection with such steps; and (b) Expenses; (c) The Seller’s Commission, by way of remuneration for the services performed by Coys down to the date of rescission, and not by way of penalty or liquidated damages. 21.6.

to (c), any such shortfall shall be made good by the Seller to Coys on demand. 22. REMOVAL OF PURCHASES 22.1.

The Buyer shall be responsible for all removals, storage, insurance and other charges on any Lot not taken away at the day and time specified in Condition 22.1 above. 22.3.

If the Buyer fails to collect the Lot within 14 days of the Auction, Coys shall notify the Seller who shall at his sole discretion elect to: (a) Cancel the sale of the Lot and take back possession of the Lot; or (b) Re-sell the Lot or cause it to be re-sold by public auction or private sale; or (c) Continue to remove, store and insure the Lot at his expense, but subject to being entitled to recoupment of such expenses from the Buyer, and subject to being entitled to elect (a) or (b) at any time thereafter. 22.5 In the event that the sale contract is cancelled, or the Lot is re-sold, in accordance with Condition 22.4 above, the same provisions shall apply as under Condition 21.6 above, “Buyer’s Default”, as regards any of the Purchase Price paid to the date of that cancellation or re-sale. 23. RESPONSIBILITY FOR LOTS PURCHASED 23.1.

RESCISSION FOR SELLER’S DEFAULT 24.1 Should the Buyer become entitled to rescind the sale contract and/or reject the Lot and/or refuse to pay the Purchase Price as a result of any breach by the Seller of these Conditions, including in particular any breach of the warranties set out in Condition 7, the Seller shall be liable to pay the following: (a) Any legal or other costs reasonably incurred by Coys, on an indemnity basis; and (b) Expenses; (c) The Seller’s Commission; (d) The Buyer’s Premium. 24.2 Coys shall be entitled to retain the Lot until such sums as are payable under Condition 24.1 are paid in full by the Seller. 25.

FORCE MAJEURE 26.1 Should there be any event or occurrence outside the reasonable control of Coys, whether foreseeable (or foreseen) or not, which in the reasonable opinion of Coys shall prevent, hinder

or impede the Auction, its conduct, or the sale of the Lot at Auction, Coys may in its sole discretion cancel the Auction or remove the Lot from the Auction, in which case it shall as soon as reasonably possible notify the Seller of its decision accordingly. 26.2 Upon receipt of Coys’ notice as set out in Condition 26.1, the Seller may by notice in writing to Coys elect to: (a) Re-enter the Lot into the next auction to be conducted by Coys in respect of which the Lot is a suitable lot (as judged by Coys in their reasonable opinion); or (b) Instruct Coys to sell the Lot by private treaty within 14 days of such Seller’s notice, as though the Lot was an unsold lot at Auction for the purposes of Condition 14.1; or (c) Cancel this contract without any payment or penalty, save that where the Auction catalogue had been printed prior to cancellation, Coys shall be entitled to retain any cataloguing fee paid by the Seller. 26.3 In the event that the Seller does not make any election in writing under Condition 26.2 within 14 days of receipt of Coys’ notice, the right of election shall irrevocably pass to Coys who may elect for one of the three courses of action set out in Condition 26.2. In case Coys elects to sell the Lot by private treaty, the 14 day sale period shall in this case run from the date of Coys’ election. 26.4 Any sale of the Lot under this Condition 26.2, whether at subsequent auction or by way of private treaty, shall be in accordance with these Conditions. 27. MISCELLANEOUS 27.1. The benefit and burden of the Conditions may not be assigned by the Seller or the Buyer without Coys’ prior agreement in writing. 27.2. If any Condition or any part of any Condition shall be held to be unenforceable or invalid that Condition shall be severed, and such unenforceability or invalidity shall not affect the enforceability and validity of the remaining conditions or the remainder of the relevant condition. 27.3 These Conditions constitute the entire agreement between the parties and supersede all previous drafts, agreements, arrangements, understandings and conventions between them, whether written or oral, relating to the subject matter of this contract. 27.4 These Conditions may not be altered or varied unless with Coys consent in writing. 27.5 The Buyer and the Seller both acknowledge and warrant that in entering into this contract (and in the case of the Buyer, in bidding for any Lot) they do not rely and have not relied on any representations made by or on behalf of Coys, save where such representations have been confirmed or set out in writing signed by a partner of Coys. 27.6 No waiver of any rights arising under these Conditions shall be effective unless in writing. Any such waiver shall not be considered as a waiver of any subsequent breach, whether of the same or any other provision. 27.7 This contract is made for the benefit of Coys, the Seller, and the Buyer, and save where the Buyer acts as agent for a named principal in accordance with Condition 16.2, is not intended to benefit or be enforceable by anyone else. For the avoidance of doubt, any rights otherwise arising under the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 are expressly excluded. 27.8. The headings and numbering used in the Conditions are for convenience only and shall not affect their interpretation. 27.9 In the event of any of the terms above being incompatible one with another, the term most beneficial to Coys shall prevail.

Lot 301

1993 Volkswagen Golf GTi Mk1 Sportline Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: WVWZZZ15ZNK032425

Estimate: £5,000 - £8,000

The body of the Golf Cabriolet did not change through the entire production run except for a larger fuel tank.

First registered in May 1993 the car has had a modest 4 previous owners from new. Its extensive history file is complete with its original manual, service book and road atlas dealer listings all in excellent condition and reflective of the condition of the car and the fastidious nature of its custodianship. Having clearly had no expense spared in its maintenance, the history file also comes with receipts totalling £8,500 and will be freshly serviced prior to sale.

1968 VW Beach Buggy Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: TBC

Estimate: £8,000 - £12,000

“As with most aspects of the VW scene, there is a significant amount of speculation and debate relating to models. There will always be the originals and the imitators, and there will always be some models which are more sought after than others. In the Beach Buggy world, one name reigns supreme - the Meyers Manx.... Manx Buggies are highly sought after and can command frightening prices. In the UK however, the Buggy that gets all Buggy boffs a bit hot under the collar is the short wheel base Mk 1 GP. In looks, this is very close relative to the Manx Buggy and it’s certainly the most attractive and well-proportioned of all UK built buggies.” This VW Beach buggy in itself is very rare as many bodies and wheel arches have been cut, extended, modified or damaged. This wonderful example is presented in very good condition and drives wonderfully. This little Buggy is a seriously collectable piece of VW history. Finally, as anyone who has been lucky enough to have driven one can testify, they are a complete hoot to drive.

Lot 304

2000 Bristol Blenheim 3 Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: TTBL399315929

Estimate: £45,000 - £50,000

Bristol’s long line of Chrysler V8-engined sports saloons began in 1961 with the launch of the 407, though in both styling and running gear the newcomer closely resembled the preceding six-cylinder 406. The chassis was up-dated and the styling revised periodically throughout the 1960s, a process that culminated in the 411 of 1969. After five series had been built the 411 was phased out as the 603 saloon and Zagato-styled 412 convertible came on stream in 1975/76; the latter making a clean break from the traditional Bristol look while retaining its predecessor’s chassis and Chrysler engine, though the latter was later downsized to from 6.6 to 5.9 litres. In 1980 Bristol abandoned its traditional numerical nomenclature with the launch of the Beaufighter, and succeeding models would likewise use names drawn from the company’s not inconsiderable aircraft manufacturing heritage. A development of the 412, the Beaufighter used a turbo-charged version of the Chrysler V8, and while in Rolls-Royce fashion the power output remained officially undisclosed, it was sufficient to propel the car to 150mph with a sub-6.0 second 0-60mph time to boot. Meanwhile, the 603 saloon had been revised as the Britannia, the turbocharged version of which, launched in 1983, was dubbed ‘Brigand’. Introduced for 1995, the Blenheim further refined the 603 concept; multi-port fuel injection was introduced, which improved both performance and fuel consumption, and gave the normally aspirated Blenheim the same level of performance as the turbo-charged Brigand. The Blenheim also featured styling changes at front and rear, the headlights being paired and repositioned towards the body centreline. The Blenheim has since developed through the Series 2 and Series 3. The former, made from 1998 to the end of 1999, featured for the first time a four-speed overdrive automatic transmission, which further improved the fuel consumption, while the Series 3 abandoned the vertically mounted tail-lights and came with a much revised interior. This superb Blenheim 3 is described to be in excellent condition throughout having covered a mere 51,500 miles from new. The car has been fastidiously maintained during its lifetime and the current vendor has always kept the car in a heated garage and only used on dry days. A rare and excellent example of Bristol’s luxurious grand tourer and an excellent prospect for any collector.

1978 Volkswagen Beetle Cabriolet Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: TBA

Estimate: £9,000 - £12,000

One of the 20th Century’s truly great automobiles, the Volkswagen ‘Beetle’ spawned a host of derivatives, the longest enduring being the Cabriolet. A single prototype was built pre-war, but it was not until 1949 that production commenced, the bulk of which was entrusted to Karmann of Osnabruck whose fourseater Cabriolet appeared soon after the two-seater Hebmuller-built version. Only Karmann’s would stand the test of time, outliving the saloon and remaining ever fashionable, an instantly recognisable motoring icon to this day. Mechanical changes to the Cabriolet kept pace with those of the saloon until the latter’s production began to wind down in the early 1970s. The lovely example on offer here has been meticulously looked after by the current vendor who has owned the beetle for some time. Most recently, it has been the subject of a body refresh and the paintwork presents in excellent order, as does the interior and included in the sale is a sizeable history file with previous work that has been carried out. In good all-round condition, with a new hood, this charming example is ready for a new custodian for the coming summer months.

Ref 84 1988 BMW 635 CSI Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: TBA

Estimate: £10,000 - £13,000

The E24 6 series was produced from 1976-1989 and was the replacement for the CS and CSL E9 coupes. Like the E9 coupes, the early bodies of the 6 were manufactured by Karmann until production was moved in-house by BMW. It was the proven E12 5 series that provided the chassis and much of the mechanicals for the E24. Dubbed the ‘Bavarian Ferrari’ the 6 series was a high end two door luxury sports coupe. The 628 model was produced until 1987 and was a budget model for the European market. The 633 Csi featured the first generation of DME and ABS brakes were available as an option. The following year, the 635 CSi received the same DME as the 633 Csi. On offer here is a wonderful example of the final edition 635 CSI. Presented in immaculate Dolphin Grey metallic paint with Natural leather interior, which includes roof lining, dashboard, centre console and door cards. Still retaining its original carpet over mats which are barely worn, the car has had only three previous owners from new and comes with a Full Service History accompanied by all invoices of work carried out. Registered new in late 1988, the previous custodian acquired the car as a ‘used and approved example’ from BMW on the 3rd April 1990; his original purchase invoice is within the records. Owning the car for over 25 years, he always kept the car in a climate-controlled garage, as has the current vendor, which would account for the stunning and solid condition of the car. A true testament to its caring custodianship. Said to drive wonderfully, this largely original car has just been serviced by a well-respected BMW specialist. Offered with 3 x spare keys and a valid MOT due to expire 01/02/2019.

C. 1959 Fiat 1100 Berlina Registration Number: TBA

Chassis Number: TBA

Estimate: NO RESERVE

Fiats first started producing cars in 1899 and have some of the most interesting history of any manufacturer with a reputation for style and grace as opposed to comfort and reliability. The 1100 is a compact car produced from 1937 to 1969. In 1953, the 1100 was completely redesigned as a compact fourdoor saloon with modern monocoque bodywork and integrated front lights, the new model was called the 1100/103 after its project number. Between 1956 and 1960, the Fiat 1100 underwent several slight changes in fittings and details, e.g. newly designed grille, more rectangular profile and eventually small fin-tails with spear-shaped backlights. This charming example of Fiat’s definitive small family saloon car of the 1950s is being offered from a private collection, and is offered at No Reserve to the highest bidder. A delightful little classic car and we are a welcome addition to any collection.

1979 Ford Capri Ghia Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: TBC

Estimate: ÂŁ10,000 - ÂŁ14,000

The Ford Capri was designed to be the Ford Mustang of Europe. A mind boggling array of options meant that the Capri could be whatever you wanted it to be; just like the Mustang. The Capri was in fact a far more varied animal than the Mustang with engines ranging from 1300cc to 3100cc as well as a myriad of trim specifications. The most popular engine was the 1600cc unit, but the object of most desire was the three litre version, which was available from 1969 Mk.I to the 1981 as the 3.0S and then latterly, the 2.8. The Capri was ready for a special preview in Bonn on 21st January, 1969. It then went on to be released to the press and public at the Brussels Motor Show on 24th January. There had previously been a press preview in Cyprus but Ford had requested that nothing about the new car would be published until 24th January to coincide with the Motor Show. Surprisingly, this request was honoured and the Capri caused a sensation at the Show. The model would stay in production for 18 years, 1969 to 1987. This extremely rare and super-desirable 1979 3.0 variant with automatic gearbox must be one of the finest and most coveted examples in recent memory. Showing C.33,500 miles on the speedometer, this is a loved car from a private collection where it has been cherished by its enthusiastic owner. The star of a number of concours lawns, both the exterior and interior condition is very good. The body is rust free with no dents or scratches. Mechanically, the engine and running gear are first class and in good working condition. As you can see, this is a very special car supplied with history file, V5C and accompanying history file.

1994 Porsche 968 Cabriolet Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: WPOZZZ96ZP5830177

Estimate: £12,000 - £14,000

The Porsche 968 was made from 1992 to 1995 and was the final evolution of a line of water-cooled front-engined, rear wheel drive models begun almost 20 years earlier with the 924. Taking over the entry-level position in the company line-up from the 944 with which it shared about 20% of its parts. The 968 was Porsche’s last new front-engined vehicle before the introduction of the Cayenne SUV in 2003. Like the 944, the 968 was sold as both a coupe and a convertible. The 968’s basic styling was an evolution on that of the outgoing 944, itself based on the earlier 924. In an attempt to create a “family resemblance” between models and associate it with the luxury 928 Gran Turismo, elements were borrowed from its upscale sibling. Others included a swooping headlamp design inspired by the 959 later incorporated in the Type 993 911. The 968 was powered by an updated version of the 944’s straight-four engine, now displacing 3.0 litres with 104 mm bore, 88 mm stroke and producing 237bhp. Changes to the 968’s powertrain also included the addition of Porsche’s then-new VarioCam variable valve timing system, newly optimized induction and exhaust systems, a dual-mass flywheel, and updated engine management electronics among other more minor revisions. The 968’s engine was the fourth-largest four-cylinder ever offered in a production car up to that time. A new 6-speed manual transmission replaced the 944’s old 5-speed, and Porsche’s dual-mode Tiptronic automatic became an available option. The VarioCam timing system was first introduced on the 968 and would later become a feature of the Type 993 air-cooled six-cylinder engine. This lovely 968 Cabriolet is presented in Amazon Green with luxurious black leather interior and green piping. This wonderful 6-speed manual example comes with a very comprehensive service history including recent works covering new clutch assembly and a complete electrics overhaul. A fantastic opportunity to acquire one of Porsche’s last frontengined grand tourers.

1970 Mercedes-Benz 300SEL 6.3 Saloon Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: TBA

Estimate: £35,000 - £40,000

The 300 SEL 6.3 was Mercedes-Benz’s fastest and most opulent full-sized executive saloon car of the late 1960’s and early 70’s. The model started out as a private venture in 1966 by company engineer Erich Waxenberger, in what these days would probably be termed a “Skunkworks” project. His principle was simple: take the powerful 6.3-litre V8 from the luxurious 600 limousine, and squeeze it into the regular Mercedes-Benz S-Class model. The result was an almost 2 tonne saloon with performance similar to most dedicated sports cars of the era. Surprisingly, the rather conservative company went ahead and launched the car into the marketplace at the Geneva Motor Show in March 1968. The 6.3-litre motor could catapult a car that weighed nearly two tonnes to a top speed of over 130mph and to 60mph from stationary in under seven seconds, respectable numbers for modern vehicles and an extraordinary feat for a luxury saloon in 1970. Adorned with the finest luxury fitments of the time, this was a car for those who were looking for the best in terms of automotive refinement. This beautiful 1971 right hand drive 300 SEL 6.3 has undergone a detailed £61,000 restoration in more recent times. Any rust was removed, and the 6.3 was treated to new Mercedes inner and outer sills, followed by a bare metal refinish in Mid-Blue non-metallic paint. The engine was removed in order to detail the engine bay correctly, at the same time the power steering, brakes, air suspension and engine ancillaries were overhauled. Finally the interior was completely re-trimmed and woodwork/veneers refinished. These 6.3-litre models offered class-leading levels of performance in their day and are the true forerunner of the AMG models which we are now familiar with. An exceptional example of a rare and desirable super-saloon. Buyers should satisfy themselves prior to sale as to the condition of each lot and should exercise and rely on their own judgement as to whether the lot accords with its description.

1953 Austin Healey BN1 100/4 Le Mans Specification Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: BN1-L/150250

Estimate: £40,000 - £50,000

Healey was well aware that he needed a car that could be built in larger numbers and sold at a lower price in the rapidly emerging sports car market in the new world. MG and Jaguar were selling the bulk of their production to North America and Triumph was readying the TR2. Using the four-cylinder 2.6 litre Austin A-90 engine and transmission, as well as other components from the parts bin of newly-formed BMC (a merger of the Austin and Nuffield/Morris companies), Healey produced a sleek and beautiful prototype styled by Gerry Coker. Healey showed his “Healey Hundred” at the 1952 Earls Court Motor Show in the UK and caught the eye of BMC supreme Leonard Lord. Healey’s timing was perfect. Lord selected his car over a new MG prototype, thus delaying the replacement of the old-fashioned MG TD, which was also in the BMC family. When it went on sale in 1953, the beautiful Austin-Healey 100 cost less than $3,000 in the United States and would top 100mph. Those first cars, designated BN1, used the 90bhp Austin engine, a three-speed transmission with overdrive and were happily received in the United States, which took most of the 10,688 cars produced. The M specification included a louvered bonnet and leather strap, a cold air box, larger 1 ¾” carburettors, higher profile camshaft, stronger valve springs, steelfaced competition head gasket, larger anti-roll bar, front disc brakes and a freeflow exhaust manifold which gave higher compression using special pistons. A special distributor was also used, improving the advance curve, and when combined with all the other upgrades boosted the standard cars performance from 90 to 110bhp, which took top speed to nearly 120mph. This lovely BN1 was originally delivered to the US in 1953 and has more recently returned to the UK in 1993. Acquired by the current vendor in the early 2000s the Healey was treated to an extensive restoration between 2006 and 2010 using cellulose paint where it was colour changed and presented in two tone old English white and Colorado red. Included in the history file are photos of the restoration process as well bills and receipts of work carried out amounting to a figure of around £18,000 as well as many previous Mot test certificates. Also included in the sale are front and rear chrome bumpers, fittings, and a wet weather hood. Having been in single ownership for the past fifteen years and presented in good all-round condition the Healey both looks and drives fantastically.

Aston Martin V8 Volante Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: V8COL15036

Estimate: £110,000 - £130,000

Described by former Aston Martin Chairman Victor Gauntlett as, ‘a stylish thoroughbred, beautifully built, luxurious, fast and immensely safe,’ the V8 was built in several variants, one of the more exclusive being the Volante convertible. 1978 saw the introduction of a much-awaited Volante convertible, with a power operated fully lined hood. Arguably the ultimate in soft-top luxury, the newcomer boasted a lined, poweroperated hood which, when erected, endowed the walnut embellished interior with all the solidity and refinement associated with the saloon version. Although its open-car aerodynamics meant that top speed suffered with the hood down, the Volante’s 150mph top speed nevertheless ranked it among the world’s fastest convertibles. V8 Volante and Vantage Volante chassis numbers ran from ‘15001’ to ‘15849’, a total of 849 cars. Total production of V8 Volante with Weber carburettors reached 441 examples of which just 157 are known to be right hand drive and only 19 of these known to have manual transmission. This leaves 266 known left hand drive cars and of these, just 50 with manual transmission. Of the left-hand drive cars, 173 were sold in North America. The V8 Volante was an overwhelming success accounting for more than half of the V8 engined Astons produced every year. In recent years this wonderful early V8 Volante has been substantially restored. Now described to be in excellent condition throughout, the car is offered with a swathe of invoices in excess of £33,000 GBP. All of the mechanical work has been done by a retired Aston engineer, and important work of course included upgrading the cooling and braking system. Now fitted with a new Hood and Headlining, the car is ready to be enjoyed by its new custodian in the forthcoming summer months.

1995 MG R V8 - 1,000 miles from new Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: SARRWBMBMG001425

Estimate: £35,000- £45,000

In 1992, 12 years after the last MG sports car had rolled off the Abingdon production lines, Austin-Rover made the inspired decision to revive this most charismatic of British marques by introducing an entirely new model - the MG RV8. The success of the Heritage MGB replacement bodyshell had demonstrated the continuing popularity of that car, so the decision was taken to base the new model on MG’s most successful sports car, suitably re-engineered for the 1990’s. The MG RV8 was announced at the 1992 Motor Show, its launch being timed to coincide with the MGB’s 30th anniversary. Although recognisably related to its distinguished forebear, the RV8 was wider, lower and sleeker, featuring fully integrated bodycoloured bumpers in the modern idiom. Beneath the power-bulged bonnet there was the latest 3.9-litre version of the Rover V8 engine, a modern derivative of that used to power the MGB V8 back in the 1970’s, mated to a Rover LT77 fivespeed manual gearbox. With a maximum power output of 188bhp and capable of a top speed of 135mph, the RV8 was the most powerful MG ever at the time of its launch. The UK price on introduction was £26,500. Only 1,983 MG RV8’s were built in total, around 75% of which were exported to Japan with the remainder sold new in the UK. There was no left-hand drive version. Carrying the apt registration number ‘N100 MGR’, this example has covered just over 1,000 miles from new. Noteworthy features include wheel arch flares (from new), convertible hood, tonneau cover (new), stainless steel boot rack, and an ‘MPH’ speedometer. The car comes with service history and documentation confirming the mileage. This is a unique opportunity to acquire an ‘as new’ RV8 which drives just as well as it looks.

2004 Ferrari 360 Spider to Challenge Stradale Specification Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: ZFFYT53C000135605

Estimate: £40,000 - £60,000

Ferrari’s most successful model since the 308, the F355 was always going to be a tough act to follow. Its successor needed to be ground breaking and revolutionary; two words which, without doubt the 360 lived up to. Starting with a clean sheet of paper in designing the 360 Modena, the new car attracted superlatives that put even its illustrious predecessor in the shade. Just about the only item carried over from the F355 was its glorious V8 engine, enlarged from 3.5 to 3.6 litres for the 360, producing 400bhp. In every other respect the 360 was entirely new, the most striking break with Ferrari tradition being the body’s frontal treatment; gone was the omnipresent oval grille, replaced by two separate intakes set low into the front wings. A larger car than the F355, the 360 owed its radical new shape to the quest for increased downforce, generating four times as much as its predecessor yet achieving the impressively low Cd of 0.33. There was further innovation beneath the skin: a lighter, stiffer aluminium spaceframe/monocoque replacing the old tubular steel arrangement, resulting in a dry weight around 220lbs less than that of the F355. The 360’s on-the-road dynamics constituted a significant advance, its best time around Ferrari’s Fiorano test track being some three seconds faster than the F355’s. Offered for sale showing just 35,000 miles on the odometer this example comes complete with a full-service history completed by Ferrari main dealer and Ferrari Specialists. Complete with many Challenge Stradale upgrades including the front and rear spoiler, a full F1 rear diffuser, a 6 Koenig exhaust pipe arrangement as well as original Challenge Stradale Alloy wheels. The interior also boasts many upgrades including a built in Satellite navigation and base speaker system as well as an integral phone. Recently the 360 was treated to maintenance work and a full service at a cost of almost £4,000 and is said to be in excellent working order. Presented in its original colour combination with F1 style gearbox this unique, one off example represents a fantastic opportunity to acquire a low mileage 360 spider with many superior upgrades.

1974 Ferrari 365GT 2+2 Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: TBA

Estimate: £60,000 - £75,000

By the mid-1960s, 50 percent of all Ferraris produced were being built with four seats. Third in this succession of ‘family Ferraris’ was the 365GT 2+2, which made its public debut at the Paris Salon in October 1967. Sleekly styled in the manner of the limited edition 500 Superfast, the 365GT 2+2 was the most refined Ferrari to date. Based on that of the contemporary 330GTC, the chassis was made up of Ferrari’s familiar combination of oval and round steel tubing and, as well as featuring independent suspension all round – for the first time on a Ferrari 2+2 – boasted Koni’s hydropneumatic self-levelling system at the rear. Further refinements included mounting the engine and drive-train in rubber bushes to insulate the car’s occupants from noise and vibration, and offering power-assisted steering and air conditioning as standard equipment. Developing 320bhp in its 365GT incarnation, the well-proven 4.4-litre V12 engine was coupled to a five-speed manual gearbox, while the car’s blistering performance – top speed 150mph, 0-60mph in 7.0 seconds – was restrained by Girling ventilated discs all round. This right-hand drive example of one of Ferrari’s finest luxury GTs was purchased by the vendor in 1997 having previously been owned by a Mr M T Bourbon in the early 1980s. The latter lived in Paris and took the car with him to Fifth Avenue, New York in 1985. While in the USA it underwent substantial refurbishment at Automotive Restorations Inc of Stratford, CT (invoices available) before returning to the UK circa 1994. More recent work has included an engine top-end strip-down, new inlet camshaft and followers, overhaul of distributors and carburettors, new fuel pumps, rear suspension strip-down, new shock absorbers and suspension bushes, and overhaul of the brakes; all of the foregoing being carried out in February 1999 by D K Performance Cars of Edmonton, London N18 at a cost of £12,371 (invoice available). In November 2003 T-H-R-E Historic Racing carried out a further overhaul of the brakes prior to MoT at a cost of £4,010. Owed by the current vendor for the last three years it has been maintained as part of his collection and presents itself in very nice order indeed. Finished in dark blue with matching leather interior, the car is offered with aforementioned invoices, current MoT and Swansea V5 registration document.

1949 Allard M-Type Drophead Coupé Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: M835

Estimate: £28,000 - £38,000

The M Type was one of Sidney Allard’s most successful models in the post-war era, with around 500 produced over a five year period; the most popular version was the foursome drophead coupe, handsome and restrained but endowed by its 3.6 Litre V8 engine with a more than respectable turn of speed together with very tidy handling. The splendid example we are offering today was built in 1950, and features ‘spats’, the rear wheel covers typical of the time. It was supplied to a doctor in Northern Ireland, for at the time cars were only available to motorists who could demonstrate a real need and thus gain the necessary points to be able to place an order, and he kept the car for five years, during which time it saw daily use together with being entered for some sporting events. The car subsequently came back to England, and spent the following two decades in the hands of several enthusiastic owners, until one of their number, during the 1970s undertook a very considerable degree of restoration work, for much of which the bills are in the car’s impressively thick history folder. Subsequently the car went on many touring expeditions, including one to LeMans to celebrate the Anniversary of the Allard company’s victory in the 19xx LeMans 24 Hour race. Coachwork is finished in a very handsome shade of Royal Blue, which suits the car’s lines admirably and matches very pleasingly with the blue leather of the interior, and the car’s matching convertible top remains in very fine order too. As we have commented, the history file will give a good idea of the care and interest lavished on this very pleasing car, including, charmingly, an internal invoice from the Allard company, probably when the car passed from the manufacturing to the sales departments. Certainly this splendid example offers remarkable value for money, when compared with other, possible more mundane models of the era.

Estimate: £

Porsche revived the Carrera name – previously used for the competition orientated versions of the preceding 356 model – for its luxuriously equipped, top-of-therange 911 in 1973, applying the evocative title to all 911 variants, coinciding with the introduction of the 3.2 litre engine, from the start of the 1984 model year. This stunning later example, fitted with the more desirable G50 gearbox, has been subject to an extensive program of refurbishment. The engine has been fully rebuilt, also the transmission, which was reinstalled with a new clutch. A new exhaust has been fitted, as have new brake discs and pads, the brake calipers have also been rebuilt, and the classic Fuchs alloy wheels have been refinished. Repainted in Grand Prix white and fitted with deeper black leather sports seats inside, this stunning Porsche is in truly excellent condition in all respects.

1965 Ferrari 330 GT 2+2 Series Ii Registration Number: EU Registered

Chassis Number: 08153

Estimate: £180.000 - £220,000

The 330 GT 2+2 was launched at the Brussels Motor Show in January 1964 as an intended replacement for the successful 250 GTE. It was powered by the 209 engine previously used in the 400 Superamerica, which with various improvements but slight detuning now yielded around 330bhp. The wheelbase was about two inches longer than that of the 250, and Koni adjustable shock absorbers were fitted as standard. The bodywork of the 330 was altogether ‘sweeter’ and more essential than that of its predecessor, and had a particularly attractive sharpness of line. The car was also spacious and comfortable, living up well to its ‘GT’ denomination. Paul Frere, the noted Belgian racing driver and automotive journalist, road tested a 2+2 late in 1966. He came away suitably impressed: “In handling, this car is exactly like all Ferraris which I have driven before … It is close to being as neutral as one could want… But the most impressive feature of the handling of the 330 is the solidness with which it changes direction, particularly in s-bends, where it tracks with about the same precision as a modern race car.”

This lovely matching number Series II single headlamp example, finished in its original colour combination of Argento Metallic silver with black leather interior was delivered new in March 1965 to its first owner in Lombardy, Italy. Having been extensively restored in 2009 including a mechanical overhaul the 330 still retains its originality, the original engine and gearbox are both fitted to the car as is the original jack and wheel hub hammer. The body and paintwork are both in good condition as are the mechanics. The 330 represents a fantastic opportunity to own a famous front engined V12 Ferrari in arguably the most desirable colour combination.

These iconic Italian sports cars are much sought after, and this 2+2 is no exception. These Ferraris were the envy of many in the 1960’s, and remain so to this day.

1995 Ferrari 456 GT Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: ZFFSD44C000102772

Estimate: £50,000- £60,000

Not since the 412’s demise in 1989 had Ferrari offered a ‘2+2’. The 456 GT debuted at the Paris Salon in October of 1991 and although new from stem to stern, the 456 GT incorporated elements familiar to generations of Ferrari cognoscenti - front-mounted four-cam V-12, rear transaxle, tubular steel spaceframe chassis and all-independent suspension. With an exception to the F40, the 456 was the most powerful road car developed by Ferrari at that time, yet despite delivering supercar performance this relatively unstressed engine has proven itself to be very reliable. Acclaimed on its debut, the 456’s styling hasn’t dated and is truly a tribute to Pininfarina’s farsightedness in creating one of the most successful designs of modern times. This Beautiful right hand drive example is fitted with the rare Manual Gearbox and finished in Blue Le Mans with full tan leather interior complimented by a dark blue dash top and dark blue over mats. The car has only had 5 owners over the last 23 years and has covered 61,000 miles from new, with a total service history listed below:

An absolute pleasure to drive, this 456 is perhaps the most understated and sophisticated Ferrari you can buy for under £100,000. A better example of this elegant, front-engine V-12 Ferrari will be hard to find.

1978 Porsche 911 3.0 Super Carrera to 935 Le Mans Specification Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: 9119300701

Estimate: £40,000 - £60,000

The Porsche 935 was Introduced in 1976 as the factory racing version of the Porsche 911 turbo prepared for FIA-Group 5 rules, it was an evolution of the Porsche Carrera RSR 2.1 turbo prototype, the second place overall finisher in the 1974 24 Hours of Le Mans. Beginning with the 1977 season, Porsche offered the 935 to customers entering the World Championship for Makes, in the IMSA GT Championship and in the German Deutsche Rennsport Meisterschaft (DRM). The 935 went on to win the 1979 24 Hours of Le Mans overall, and other major endurance races, including Sebring, Daytona, and the 1000 km Nürburgring. Of the 370[1] races it was entered, it won 123. Usually, no other make could challenge the Porsche 935, due to the non-availability of customer models. Each race, at the time, typically featured at least five 935s. Originally delivered to Ratingen, Germany in 1978 the 911 SC found itself in the US for some 22 years before more recently returning to the UK in 2015. This exceptionally presented 911 has had a no expense spared restoration completed during the current vendors ownership. The build included many upgrades both mechanically and bodily. An extensive and professional restoration began in 2017 including a bare metal repaint in Porsche grand prix white with meticulous attention to sourcing and applying the correct 70s martini racing livery. 70s style gold BBS wheels were also sourced and fitted to the car as well as a rebuilt 930 Turbo engine which was installed in 2016 and has covered just 1,000 miles since. Offered with a Mot until February this unique one-off example comes complete with a ‘935’ registration number as well as a Porsche certificate of authenticity, the original tool kit, jack, Porsche booklet with manual, spare key and service book with recent history. A memory stick showing all stages of the build is included as well as bills and invoices of the work that has been carried out. Offered in excellent all-round condition the 935 tribute represents a wonderful opportunity to own a unique example of one of the marquees most recognised Le Mans racing cars.

1967 Fiat Abarth 595 Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: 1142713 / AB105-1810

Estimate: £25,000 - £30,000

After leaving Cisitalia in 1948, Austrian-born engineer Carlo Abarth set up as an independent in Turin. From producing induction and exhaust systems, Abarth branched out into selling performance kits primarily for Fiat production cars, later building a highly successful series of aerodynamically stylish sports prototypes and limited-series production cars. With its Fiat 500-based 595, Abarth adopted the most cost-effective method of coaxing greater power from a small engine, fitting a big-bore cylinder block that boosted capacity from 499 to 593cc. Higher-compression pistons, re-worked inlet ports, a special camshaft and exhaust system, and a larger carburettor helped raise power from 22 to 30bhp, though the biggest gain was in mid-range torque. Abarth’s conversion halved the standard car’s acceleration times and endowed the 595 with a top speed of more than 75mph. Lowered suspension and wider wheels and tires helped the baby Fiat utilise the increased performance. Built in 1966 and first registered in 1967, this car was imported by Sting in the Tail of Chelsea in 1999 following a full restoration in 1997 in Italy. In 2006 the engine was rebuilt by Middle Barton garage to 695 specification but retaining the rare 4-pot head. The engine was again refreshed in 2014, having come out of long term storage the current vendor was keen to ensure the Abarth’s reliability. This wonderful example comes complete with ACI certificate and UK V5C and is said to be in a very good condition overall. A real head turner and a car that is certainly worth a closer look.

1999 TVR Griffith 500 Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: SDLAA04RXB001971

Estimate: £22,000- £28,000

The TVR Griffith was the car that pushed TVR into the big league of performance car manufacturers when it was unveiled in 1990. The wedge-shaped cars of the eighties were nearing the limits of their development and a new direction needed to be found. The Griffith embodied all of the innovation, design flair and sheer bloody-mindedness that TVR has come to stand for. Ferociously quick and hairy of chest, the Griffith is a car that doesn’t suffer fools gladly. Although the Griffith was almost mechanically identical to its sister car, the Chimaera, it had a different body design and was produced in much smaller numbers. This wonderful example of the 500 is finished in Moonraker Black with full black extended leather interior stitched in gold with matching gold instruments and an aluminium dashboard. It has had just one previous owner and has covered only 40,000 miles from new with a total service history. Factory options include rare full leather and air conditioning. Reported to drive very well it is in excellent order.

1960 Austin Healey 100/6 BN7 2 Seater Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: BN7

Estimate: £

After a really gruelling road test, I can say that this new sports model is ideal for Continental touring. It also stood up to lap after lap of the Nürburgring at racing speeds, without complaint, and that must be equivalent to a vast mileage under more humane conditions. Finally, it has the kind of appearance that will make many prospective purchasers reach for their check books.’ – John Bolster on the Austin-Healey 100/6, Autosport,12th October 1956. Introduced for 1956, the 100/6 represented the most radical step forward in the Big Healey’s development. Despite its initial success, sales of the original Austin-Healey 100 had begun to decline by the mid-1950s and so the model was revamped as the ‘100/6′, BMC’s 2.6-liter C-series six replacing the original four-cylinder Austin Atlantic engine. At the same time the wheelbase was lengthened from 7′ 6 to 7′ 8, which enabled the inclusion of two occasional seats in the rear of the BN4 variant. In 100-6 tune, the pushrod six produced 102bhp – 12bhp more than its predecessor – though the inevitable weight gain meant that there was little if any improvement in performance, the car’s top speed remaining at 103mph or thereabouts. Although stylistically very similar to the preceding 100, the 100/6 was nevertheless easily distinguishable by its ‘crinkle’ radiator grille and bonnet-top air intake. In 1957 an improved six-port engine became available, and this 117bhp unit was fitted to all the newly introduced BN6 two-seater roadsters. Top speed improved to 111mph and 1.7 seconds was cut from the 0-60mph time. This very handsome car is an original US delivered Two Seater Austin-Healey 100/6. As verified by its British Motor Industry Heritage Trust Certificate the car was delivered new through a New York agency. It was originally supplied as you see it here today, in the definitively classic colour combination of Healey Blue over Ivory White with blue trim and top. Now offered for sale it is this custodian who is responsible for the beautiful condition in which it is found today, beautifully restored and a ‘well sorted’ car. Well-documented and recorded in photographs, the exacting work returned the Healey to its original two tone colour, and refinished the car just as it would have emerged from the factory, only almost certainly to a higher quality finish. Overall, an accurately restored example of the model in archetypal Healey livery.

1959 Lotus Elite Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: 1046

Estimate: £60,000 - £70,000

With the Lotus 14 of 1959 – better known as the Elite – Colin Chapman demonstrated that his skills as a racing car designer and constructor could just as easily be applied to production road cars. Just as innovative as Lotus’s outright competition cars, the Elite featured a fibreglass monocoque body tub, independent suspension all round (based on that of Lotus’ racing monopostos’) and four-wheel disc brakes, the rears mounted inboard. Its engine was the four-cylinder Coventry-Climax FWE, a single-overhead-cam unit, while the gearbox, an MGA unit fitted with an alloy casing and modified bellhousing, was sourced from BMC. The classically-styled body – the work of stylists Peter Kirwan-Taylor, John Frayling, and aerodynamicist Frank Costin – possessed an admirably low coefficient of drag, though it made few concessions for comfort or noise suppression. That is not likely to have bothered the Elite’s customers, for whom its 112mph top speed and superlative handling were of far greater importance than creature comforts. Indeed, so successful was the Elite on the racetrack that the car dominated its class well into the 1960s. Noteworthy achievements include five class victories at Le Mans and two wins in the prestigious ‘Index of Thermal Performance’. Rolling of the production line on the 25th of August 1959 the car was registered by its first custodian Jonathan Sieff, (part of the Marks and Spencer family) in March 1960. The same year that Mr. Sieff was entered to share the driving of a 2-litre (FPF) Elite with Innes Ireland at Le Mans. Offered with a vast assortment of spares and a very detailed history, in its current ownership #1046 has attended various Club Elite events including 50th anniversary at Silverstone and the 60th anniversary at Castle Combe, and in recent years it has travelled twice to France. Fitted with engine #7562 (original to the car), and being a very early example built before February 1960, JAT 41 has the added benefit of being MOT exempt! Included in the cars extensive history file is a detailed account of the cars history, GAT41 specific paperwork such as photos and invoices, a collection of Elite related literature and handbook. A more detailed account of the cars ownership, service history and list of the spares offered with the car are available on request and are found in six storage boxes Estimate:

2000 BMW Z8 Roadster Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: WBAEJ110X1AF77959

Estimate: £160,000 - £210,000

The BMW Z07 concept car, first shown at the Tokyo Motor Show in October 1997, blossomed from a dream into a production reality. Production of the BMW Z8 was announced at the Detroit Motor Show in January 1999. Designed for connoisseurs, the BMW Z8 was both very exclusive and a technological “tour de force”. Its blend of aesthetic design and dynamic performance is born of BMW’s desire to show how the 1956 BMW 507 might have developed had it been an integral part of the BMW range in the intervening period. The evocative and exotic style of the Z8 echoes the concept design very closely. The broad kidney grille and small xenon headlights faired in by glass covers flow into a long bonnet with muscular wheel arches and wide doors rounded off by a shapely yet purposeful tail with four large tailpipes. The Z8 even bears the typical 507 air scoops on its front wings whilst a luxurious leather interior is set off by a central instrument binnacle typical of that elegant era of convertible cars.

Under the skin the Z8 is pure technology. The Z8 is built on an aluminium alloy spaceframe and carries an all-aluminium body. The power unit for the vehicle is no less than the five litre V8 engine from the M5. This incredible motor produces 400bhp and 500Nm of torque and driven through the rear wheels. The Z8’s performance more than matches its looks – 0-62mph in under five seconds, whilst 0-62 and back to zero again in less than eight seconds proves it stops as well as it goes.

1990 Ferrari Mondial Cabriolet T Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: ZFFKC33C000085458

Estimate: £50,000 -£60,000

The Mondial saw Ferrari return to Pininfarina as its choice of styling house, and it was sold as a mid-sized Coupé and, eventually, a Cabriolet. Conceived as a ‘more usable’ model, offering the practicality of four seats with the performance of a mid-range Ferrari, it was aimed at attracting a slightly wider audience than their traditionally more focused two-seaters. The car’s body was not built as a monocoque in the same way as a conventional car but instead, the steel outer body was produced by the famous Italian coachbuilder Carrozzeria Scaglietti, just down the road in nearby Modena and clothed a lightweight steel box-section space frame. The Mondial was the first Ferrari where the entire engine/gearbox/ rear suspension assembly was mounted on a detachable steel sub-frame, making engine removal for a major rebuild or cylinder head removal much easier than it had been on earlier models.

Showing a low mileage of only 17,500 miles, this original Right Hand Drive example is said to drive as well as it looks. A highly accessible entry level classic Ferrari which we are sure will provide lots of fun over the summer months.

1985 VW Golf Cabriolet Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: WVWZZZ15ZFK018531

Estimate: £3,500 - £4,500

The VW Golf is surely one of the most iconic ‘hot-hatches’ ever conceived. Its popularity has never diminished and a plethora of variants and styles have always been hungrily anticipated and universally enjoyed by the car’s cult following all of whom treasure the next instalment from Volkswagen, the hot-hatch giant. The body of the Golf Cabriolet did not change through the entire production run except for a larger fuel tank. The space saver wheel was fitted from the outset in 1978, when pre-production models were built, unlike the saloon which adopted this in 1984. In an attempt by Volkswagen to keep the car’s styling current, Cabriolets from 1988 on were fitted with a “Clipper” kit out of the factory, featuring smooth body-coloured bumpers, wheel-arch extensions, and side skirts. This very nicely presented Cabriolet has enjoyed much refurbishment including a repaint and replacement convertible roof, also attention to the mechanics, brakes, and exhaust system. Offered from a private Volkswagen collection, and supplied with a recent MOT, this is a fine example of a highly usable and reliable summer classic.

1972 Datsun 240Z Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: HS30011285

Estimate: £20,000 - £25,000

It soon became apparent during its creation, that the Datsun 240Z represented all the requirements of sports-minded drivers by fulfilling their desires for superb styling, power and safety whilst providing them with the most thrilling and enjoyable ride available in any car. Reporting 151bhp and 146 lb/ft of torque at just 4,400 rpm, Car & Driver said; ‘A brilliantly conceived car with twice as much thought having gone into it when compared to the Big Healey, MGC, Lotus Elan, Porsches and Corvettes’. Offering a 125mph top-speed and the 0-60mph dash in a shade under 8 seconds, the well-spaced 5-speed gear ratios made the most of the engine’s torque whilst retaining the ability to achieve in excess of 30 mpg, this was to put the ‘Z’ ahead of many of its contemporaries and on a par with Porsche 911’s of the time. Very impressive, by anyone’s standards. Although Datsun didn’t invent the OverheadCam Engine, Disc Brakes or all-round Independent suspension, the 240Z incorporated all of these systems into a brilliantly conceived car. It was no surprise therefore that, for many years the Datsun 240Z was heralded as the most successful sports-car of all time. This original right-hand drive UK delivered car is described to be in excellent condition throughout. Offered with an extensive history file, that includes a swathe of old MOT’s and invoices, the engine has been fully re-conditioned a modest 8,000 miles ago. Owned by the current vendor for over a decade, the car has been perfected for use and other than a few minor modifications which are commonplace for 240Z’s, the car is mostly standard. Some of these modifications include a R200 differential, electronic ignition, stainless steel exhaust and 6 branch exhaust manifold.

1975 VW “High-Top” Camper Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: 2152120216

Estimate: £18,000 - £23,000

Known officially as the Volkswagen Type 2 and depending on body type, either as a Transporter, Kombi or Microbus, this VW was also known informally as the Bus in the US and Camper in the UK. Introduced in 1950 as Volkswagen’s second car model, it was derived from their first, the Beetle, which was designated the Type 1. This second-generation Type 2 lost its distinctive split front windscreen and was slightly larger and considerably heavier than its predecessor. Its common nickname is ‘Bay-window’ or Bay for short. The new model also did away with the swing axle rear suspension and transfer boxes previously used to raise ride height. Instead, half-shafts were fitted with constant velocity joints. The updated Bus transaxle is usually sought after by off-road racers using air-cooled Volkswagen components. Brazil contained the last factory in the world that produced the T2. Production in Brazil ceased on 31st December 2013 due to the introduction of more stringent safety regulations, thus marking the end of an era with the rear-engine Volkswagens which first originated in 1935. This beautiful Camper was first registered to the UK in 1975 as a high-top panel van with a sliding door, and we understand was first used by a dry-cleaning company to delivered finished clothes. More recently the van has enjoyed a full restoration and the fitting of a brand new interior by leading specialists Danbury of Bristol. The fitout was comprehensive and included heating, a cooker, refrigerator, bed and rear seating. Finished in a very 1970s combination of Yellow over White with a tan vinyl interior, showing a mere 51,000 miles recorded from new, and offered with a new MOT certificate, this is a fabulous example of an ever popular summer classic.

1988 Porsche 959 Comfort Registration Number: EU Registered

Chassis Number: TBA

Estimate: £750,000 - £875,000

Conceived in the early 1980’s as a four-wheel-drive Group B competitor that would showcase Porsche’s advanced automotive technology, the 959 was first displayed in ‘concept car’ form at the 1983 Frankfurt Motor Show, and despite the subsequent abandonment of the events for which it had been intended, entered limited production a couple of years later. Two versions were offered: ‘Sport’ and ‘Komfort’, their names reflecting each model’s level of interior trim. Representing the ultimate in automobile design, the 959 successfully adapted state-of-the art racing technology for road use, and even today its specification remains unparalleled. At the car’s heart was a unique, 2,849cc version of the classic, six-cylinder, air-cooled ‘boxer’ engine equipped with water-cooled, double-overhead-camshaft, four-valve cylinder heads. The latter had been developed initially for the 1981 Le Mans-winning 936 and were further refined on the even more successful 956/962 that triumphed at La Sarthe every year from 1982 to 1987. In 959 specification this formidable twin-turbo-charged unit produced 450bhp, an output which, combined with the lightweight part-composite body’s drag coefficient of just 0.32, proved sufficient to propel the 959 past 195mph and onto the front rank of all-time supercars.

Indeed, at the time of its introduction the 959 was the world’s fastest street-legal production car, despite the weight penalty associated with its complex transmission and other exotic features. The 959’s sophisticated four-wheel-drive six-speed transmission paved the way for that of the Carrera 4; computer controlled, it provided variable torque split with alternative programmes for dry, wet, icy or off-road conditions. There was double wishbone suspension all round, with electrically controlled ride height adjustment; the ABS brakes delivered race-car levels of retardation and the run-flat tyres were monitored for pressure loss, all of which made for a car faster than just about anything else on the road yet, in the best Porsche tradition was comfortable, practical and reliable. With its electric windows and mirrors, climate control, electrically heated seats and superb stereo system, the 959 Komfort rivalled many a limousine for luxury.

While other supercar manufacturers’ offerings were uncompromisingly raw, uncomfortable and hard work to drive, the Porsche 959 managed to surpass them all, combining breath-taking performance with a smooth ride, light controls and full interior equipment (in the Komfort). Rumour has it that Porsche sold the 959 for far less than it cost to produce, regarding the model as a showcase for its engineering expertise. In the UK the 959 was priced at around £145,000 when new (less than half what it cost Porsche to build each one) though speculators drove the price considerably higher. Although its Group B raison d’être had ceased to exist, the Porsche 959 did achieve one major competition victory, René Metge and Dominique Lemoyne winning the gruelling Paris-Dakar Rally in 1986 in their works 959 with similar cars in 2nd and 6th places, while the race-developed 961 variant finished 7th overall at Le Mans that year, winning the IMSA GT2 class and headed only by Group C Porsches, an amazing result for a production based car. In total, fewer than 300 of these exclusive supercars were made in period – the official factory figure is 292, while a further eight were assembled by the factory using the spares stock in 1992/1993. This fabulous example, showing only 22,000 kilometres recorded, was first delivered to Koengen in Germany in June 1988, finished in Metallic Silver with a dark grey leather interior, and fitted with the additional options of heated electric seats, alarm system, and lifting system. The 959 is supplied with a full service history, with the last service having been completed by Porsche Geneva. Offered with the relevant books and tools, this is a stunning example of the most advanced supercar of the 1980’s.

2005 Aston Martin Vanquish S Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: SCFAC14335B501628

Estimate: £65,000 - £75,000

In 2002 the V12 Vanquish became the latest Aston Martin to be driven by James Bond. This special car was painted in Tungsten Silver and was fitted with a number of non-standard options including rockets, guns, ejector seat, and an invisible ‘cloaking device’ – all provided courtesy of ‘Q-branch’ of course. Building on the sales success of the original Vanquish the Vanquish S featured an increase in engine power (up from 460bhp to 520bhp) and revised gear and back axle ratios. Top speed was quoted as being in excess of 200mph, making it one of the fastest Aston Martin road cars built at Newport Pagnell. The exterior panels were still lovingly hand finished in the factory panel shop from ‘Superformed’ aluminium. Discreet changes to the ‘S’ included a bigger, revised grille, front splitter and a raised rear ‘spoiler’ built into the boot lid to keep the car stable at high speed. Inside, the Vanquish S showed what could be achieved with beautiful hand stitched leather. The dashboard and many of the smaller interior pieces were now trimmed in hide adding to the bespoke feel of the already impressive 2+0 or 2+2 cabin. Very late cars adopted updated switchgear, an Aston Martin audio system and standard fit Satellite Navigation screen. As the production life of the Vanquish drew close to the end, a very special limited edition of 50 cars were built. The Vanquish Ultimate featured a unique metallic black paint finish and special trim and fittings. This superb, low mileage Vanquish S is finished in the sublime colour combination of midnight blue with luxurious cream leather interior. Having covered just over 35,000 miles from new this lovely example benefits from a full Aston Martin main agent service history and presents an excellent opportunity for the discerning enthusiast. Furnished with a current MOT and UK V5C, this car is ready to be driven and enjoyed by its next owner.

The Ford Escort, in the hands of the Works Rally team, was practically unbeatable in the late sixties and seventies. Perhaps their most notable early success was winning the 1970 London to Mexico World Cup Rally driven by Hannu Mikkola and Gunnar Palm. Third, in a similar 1850cc Escort, was Rauno Aaltonen and Henry Liddon backed up by Timo Makinen in fifth and the unlikely combination of Tony Fall and Jimmy Greaves just behind in sixth. This result seemed to capture the public’s imagination and, with the old adage of “Race on Sunday, Sell on Monday” in mind, Ford developed the Escort Mexico, a road going version of their winning rally car. It seems likely that Ford already had plans to produce a high-performance Escort to fit in the range between the 1300GT and the Twin Cam/RS1600, and their victory in Mexico provided an ideal platform to launch such a model. The engineers at the newly formed A.V.O (Advanced Vehicle Operations) quickly developed the ‘Mexico’, marrying the Type 49 bodyshell as used in the Twin Cam and RS1600 with the 1600cc Kent ‘crossflow’ engine and 2000E gearbox. So, effectively, the Mexico was basically a re-engined Twin Cam / RS1600. All Escort Mexicos were built at Ford’s AVO plant at Aveley in South Essex and a total of 10,352 had been built when production ceased. For many drivers of standard Escorts, the rally cars were an aspirational dream echoed by Ford’s promotional chant of ‘‘Share in our Success’’ after each rally win. The highly original example you see here has been a member of the same family since 1978 when a nephew of our vendor bought it from the first registered keeper. In 1985 the Mexico passed into the ownership of the current owner, who has cherished the Mexico ever since. For sale for the first time in almost three decades and benefitting from previous restoration works and a new UK MoT certificate, this is a fabulous opportunity to own a car which was very firmly established in British motorsport in the 1970s. Buyers should satisfy themselves prior to sale as to the condition of each lot and should exercise and rely on their own judgement as to whether the lot accords with its description.

2002 Ferrari 360 Spider Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: TBA

Estimate: £50,000 - £60,000

Ferrari’s most successful model since the 308, the F355 was always going to be a tough act to follow. Its successor needed to be ground breaking and revolutionary; two words which, without doubt the 360 lived up to. Starting with a clean sheet of paper in designing the 360 Modena, the new car attracted superlatives that put even its illustrious predecessor in the shade. Just about the only item carried over from the F355 was its glorious V8 engine, enlarged from 3.5 to 3.6 litres for the 360, producing 400bhp. In every other respect the 360 was entirely new, the most striking break with Ferrari tradition being the body’s frontal treatment; gone was the omnipresent oval grille, replaced by two separate intakes set low into the front wings. A larger car than the F355, the 360 owed its radical new shape to the quest for increased downforce, generating four times as much as its predecessor yet achieving the impressively low Cd of 0.33. There was further innovation beneath the skin: a lighter, stiffer aluminium spaceframe monocoque replacing the old tubular steel arrangement, resulting in a dry weight around 220lbs less than that of the F355. The 360’s on-the-road dynamics constituted a significant advance, its best time around Ferrari’s Fiorano test track being some three seconds faster than the F355’s. This lovely 360 Spider is finished in Nero Daytona with rare carbon seats in Crema leather, and fitted with the more desirable six speed manual gearbox. The 360 shows 43,000 miles from new, with full service history available, and recent service works. A nice example of one of the best Ferraris of the modern era, and one not to be missed.

1966 Daimler 250 V8 Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: 1A10114-BW

Estimate: NO RESERVE

The Daimler V8 250 is such an assured sports saloon that it seems remarkable that it was created almost by chance. Jaguar’s principal motive in purchasing Coventry neighbours Daimler had been the acquisition of much needed production capacity without the expense of constructing on a distant ‘green field’ site. The fact that the purchase also included Daimler’s splendid, Edward Turner-designed, lightweight V8 engines was entirely incidental from Jaguar’s standpoint, yet would result in the creation of one of the finest sports saloons of the 1960’s. First seen in the rapid, if controversially styled, SP250 sports car, the 2.5-litre version was judged superior to Jaguar’s 2.4-litre XK six, and so the opportunity arose to create an medium sized, upmarket model based on the Mk2 saloon; something Daimler’s leading distributor, Stratstone, had been crying out for. The job was made relatively easy by the V8’s compact nature and the generously sized Jaguar engine bay. (A similar exercise was undertaken with the 4.5-litre unit, which was installed in a Jaguar MkX prototype, but despite the Daimler engine’s superiority the latter was introduced with the 3.8-litre XK six). Launched in 1962 as the ‘2½-Litre V8’ (later ‘V8 250’), the new Daimler came with Borg Warner automatic transmission as standard. More refined than the equivalent Jaguar, the Daimler turned out to be a fine performer to boot, its 110mph top speed exceeding that of an overdrive-equipped, 2.4-litre Mk2 by a wide margin. Autocar’s S C H Davis, a former Daimler apprentice, declared ‘This is not a Jaguar with a Daimler radiator grille and name plate. It can stand on its own.’ Not surprisingly, the V8 was soon outselling its Jaguar rival and in due course became the most successful Daimler of all time with more than 17,600 sold up to the end of production in 1969. This wonderful restoration project was discovered by Coys specialists in May 2018, having been stored for many years. Largely complete, it offers a rewarding project for its new custodian. The car is offered with V5 registration document.

1951 Jaguar Mark VII “Wee Beastie” Special - ex-Jools Holland Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: TBA

Estimate: ££40,000 - £45,000

The Jaguar Mk VII was launched in 1950 and production carried on until the introduction of the Mk VII M in 1954. The ‘M’ cars could be distinguished from their predecessors most easily by the horn grilles beneath the headlights. These replaced the formerly integrated auxiliary lamps which were now perched on the bumpers and slightly further from the centre of the car than before. The newer model also had wrap-around bumpers that carried on a little further along the sides of the car. Early in 1956 a Mark VII M won the Monte Carlo rally paving the way for these big Jaguar sedans to play a leading part in British saloon car racing for the next few years. This rare and wonderful Jaguar Special, known as “Wee Beastie”, was converted from a Jaguar Mark VII Saloon car into a special in c.1971, using the classic Jaguar 3.4 litre twin cam and twin SU carburetors. The coachwork, reminiscent of the earlier SS100 and other sporting models from the likes of Bentley, Lagonda and Invicta, was produced very nicely in aluminium and still presents very well today. The “Wee Beastie” was owned by Mr. Jools Holland until around 2001 whereby it passed to the ownership of a Mr. Hindes who has maintained the car for the last 15 or so years. The Jaguar has been used for high days and holidays, and has proven to be the perfect companion for summer touring. With its classic 1930s looks combined with a proven Jaguar engine and drivetrain, this is in many ways the ideal fun summer classic.

1964 Jaguar Mark II 3.8 Saloon Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: 232258DN

£ Estimate: £25,000 - £30,000

Rarely do cars given a facelift look as good as the models they are intended to replace, but with the Mark 2, Jaguar put paid to that particular theory. William Lyons, whilst not a trained draughtsman, was a bit more hands-on than most men in his position when it came to the final design of his beloved Jaguars. At one point the team in the drawing office developing the later XJS, were left ‘twiddling their thumbs’ until Sir William was happy with the rear-end and it wasn’t until Stan Keyworth managed to scrounge a Ferrari Dino 246GT and dropped it up to the Lyons family home on Gibbet Hill that the matter was resolved. The car was parked outside the bay window of the breakfast room for Sir William to stare at and ‘Hey Presto’ the back of the XJS came into being (have a look at a Dino and an early XJS). And so, it was with the Mark 2, which was altogether a more modern and stylish car with a brighter interior and more balanced looks that most of us still admire. The 3.4 and 3.8 were the super-saloons of their day-with the 3.8 being the fastest saloon in the world at the time. The Jaguar Mark 2 saloon was voted ‘Car of the Year’ when launched in 1959 and would form the mainstay of Jaguar’s saloon production until 1967. The car presented here is an original UK Mark 2, 3.8 with a manual gearbox and over-drive. It was manufactured on the 7th February 1964 and despatched on the 21st February, before being distributed by Henlys of London to Page Motors of Epsom. They prepared the car for sale to its first excited owner, a Mr. J A Thurston from Epsom Downs, and it was first registered as BPB 38B (this is all supported by a Jaguar Heritage Certificate of Authenticity). This lovely Jaguar has been fully resprayed in its original colour of Opalescent Silver Blue and has a grey leather interior. We are informed that structurally the car is rust-free with excellent floor pans, inner panels and under the body. The chrome work is also in very good condition for its age and everything is said to be mechanically and electrically sound. The engine shows strong oil pressure whether hot or cold, whilst the gearbox and rear axle are also working as they should with no unusual noises or vibrations. It has knock on wire wheels and still has a complete tool kit in the recess of the spare wire wheel in the boot. The car has rightly been cherished by previous owners, having spent twenty years (1993-2013) in Japan, where it was thoroughly maintained and serviced annually. The fastidious owner ensured that a service record was completed, confirming that it covered just 7,522 miles over these two decades. The car was returned to these shores by our vendor who is a classic car enthusiast and has been used sparingly since. The current indicated mileage of 84,350 cannot be completely verified, but its overall condition and performance would suggest that this may be the case. A genuine Mark 2, 3.8 manual car in a very attractive colour combination.

1952 Jaguar XK120 Fixedhead Coupé Ex Roy Hatfield Rally Car Highly competitive with photographic restoration records. Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: J679445

Estimate: £80,000 - £100,000

The Jaguar XK120 was manufactured by Jaguar between 1948 and 1954 and was Jaguar’s first post-war sports car, succeeding the SS 100 which ceased production in 1940. The XK120 was launched in roadster form at the 1948 London Motor Show as a test bed and show car for the new Jaguar XK six-cylinder engine. It caused a sensation, which persuaded William Lyons to put the car into production and the ‘120’ in its name referred to the 120 mph top speed which made the XK120 the world’s fastest standard production car at the time of launch. It was available in two roadster convertible versions; as a drophead coupé from 1953 and as a closed fixedhead coupé from 1951. The XK120 was aimed primarily at the US market and the fixedhead coupé was constructed in relatively small numbers with approximately 2680 units produced (combined left and righthand drive) compared with approximately 7614 Roadsters. This XK120 Fixed head Coupé was delivered new to the America in 1952 and then returned to the UK in the late 1980’s where it was restored and up-rated by the renowned UK collector Roy Hatfield of Sheffield to drive in the Monte Carlo classic rally. The upgrades included converting the car to right-hand drive, fitting a 4.2 litre engine with triple carburettors, lightened flywheel and competition clutch. Other modifications included an all synchromesh gearbox with overdrive, rack and pinion steering, uprated Koni shocks, servo assisted brakes, front brakes replaced with discs and calipers, aluminium radiator, up-rated alternator, louvered bonnet by RS Panels, bonnet strap and stainless steel exhaust system. The car finished an exceptional 2nd in class and 13th overall out of 130 competitors proving the quality of the modifications made, as one would expect with any car with a restoration overseen with the keen eye of Mr Hatfield and his team. Other subtle modifications increase ease of use such as the repositioned pedals and smaller steering wheel to aid taller drivers. Finished in champagne with recently fitted red leather bucket seats, this magnificent XK120 Coupé is supplied with a V5C registration document, a large file of invoices, XK Magazines with articles relating to Roy Hatfield and the XK120 rebuild and photographs of the rebuild.

1959 Jaguar XK150 Roadster Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: S830464

Estimate: £85,000 - £125,000

Introduced in the spring of 1957, the XK150 was available at first only in fixed and drophead coupé forms, the open roadster version not appearing until the following year. At 190bhp, the engine’s maximum power output was identical to that of the XK140 so performance was little changed. ‘Special Equipment’ and ‘S’ versions came with 210 and 250bhp respectively, the latter delivering an astonishing 0-60mph time of 7.3 seconds and a top speed of 136mph. This was achieved by the introduction of the Weslake-developed ‘straight-port’ cylinder head, highcompression pistons, triple 2′ SU carburettors and twin electric fuel pumps. Overdrive and a Borg-Warner automatic gearbox were the transmission options, the latter becoming an increasingly popular choice, while a Thornton Powr-Lok limited-slip differential was available for the XK150S. Steel wheels remained the standard fitting, though XK150s so equipped are a great rarity, as most were sold in SE (Special Equipment) specification with centre-lock wire wheels. The muchadmired chromed Jaguar mascot was made available as an optional extra on an XK for the first time. In recent years, this wonderful left-hand drive XK150 has benefitted from a significant body off restoration that has been finished to a very high standard. Still fitted with its matching numbers engine, which has benefited from a rebuild. All the brightwork has been either replaced or re-chromed along with a new set of wire wheels. The interior has also been re-trimmed again to a very high standard. Offered with the associated restoration invoices and a V5C document, this wonderful example of the XK may be considered a truly ‘best in class’ example.

1957 Jaguar XK140 SE Roadster Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: S813150

Estimate: £90,000 - £120,000

When the XK140 was announced in 1954 it was essentially a Mk II version. It retained the excellent dynamics of the XK120 and its superb level of appointment and attention to detail. Engine power increased to 190bhp; there were stiffer torsion bars and improved lights, cooling, brakes and steering. The main improvement, however, was moving the engine and scuttle three inches forward which gave better handling and improved cockpit space without compromising the car’s stunning lines. On the coupés models there were additional seats for children but – nice touch – the back squabs were detachable so that an adult could use the space seated across the car. The entire range abounded with clever details such that the XK series is one of the few which truly merit the term ‘great’. Of the three variants the factory offered, the drophead coupé was the least common and just 2,789 were made. With its permanently attached hood (the frame is a minor masterpiece) and wind-up windows, it is an ideal compromise between the more sparsely equipped roadster and the fixed-head coupé. All three variants the factory offered; drophead, coupe and roadster were outstanding, and only the most expensive exotica could match them either under real driving conditions or for kerbside presence. Taking into account reliability, refinement and sheer pleasure of driving, the XK140 was one of the outstanding cars of its day and it remains one of the greatest classic cars. This desirable ‘Special Equipment’ specification example, fitted with more the powerful C-Type cylinder head, original to this car along side its matching numbers engine, has in recent years been subject to extensive work. Having been brought back to bare metal, no expense has been spared and its new paintwork and interior trim are difficult to realistically fault. Simply a beautiful example of the evocative XK140, its matching numbers engine has recently been rebuilt by marque specialists Jaguar Workshop. Additional work includes all new-weather equipment and trim-work, making this wonderful British sports car ready to be enjoyed by its new custodian.

1967 Jaguar E-Type Series 1 4.2 Coupe Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: J671E 34248

Estimate: £68,000 - £78,000

One of the greatest post-war sports cars, Jaguar’s E-Type made immediate headlines on its launch in March 1961. Here was a sleek and beautiful 150mph car with a competition pedigree that could be bought for just over £2,000, almost half the cost of an Aston Martin or Ferrari. A direct descendant of the XK120 and competition C and D-Type models that so dominated fifties sports car racing, the E-Type shared its 265bhp 3.8-litre twin-cam straight-six engine with the XK150 ‘S’, mated to a Moss four-speed gearbox with synchromesh on the top three ratios. Beneath the William Lyons/Malcolm Sayer-styled body, available in either closed or roadster form, the steel monocoque chassis sported all-independent suspension and four-wheel disc brakes, mounted inboard at the back. The 4.2-litre engine was introduced on the Series 1 in October 1964, in addition to a more user-friendly all-synchromesh gearbox and superior Lockheed brake servo forming part of the improved specification together with the bigger, torquier engine. Apart from ‘4.2’ badging, the car’s external appearance was unchanged, but under the skin there were numerous detail improvements, chiefly to the electrical and cooling systems, and to the seating arrangements. Top speed remained unchanged at around 150mph, the main performance gain resulting from the larger engine being improved flexibility. From single ownership for 37 years, this matching numbers later Series 1 Fixed Head Coupe is presented in excellent unrestored condition. In more recent times the E-Type has benefited from an upgrade to the braking, and the fitting of a new clutch and flywheel. A very nice original example of one of the most usable and enjoyable variants of the E-Type.

‘The Jaguar XK150 is undeniably one of the world’s fastest and safest cars. It is quiet and exceptionally refined mechanically, docile and comfortable... we do not know of any more outstanding example of value for money.’ - The Autocar. What would turn out to be the final glorious incarnation of Jaguar’s fabulous ‘XK’ series of sports cars arrived in 1957. As its nomenclature suggests, the XK150 was a progressive development of the XK120 and XK140, retaining the same basic chassis, 3.4-litre engine and four-speed Moss transmission of its predecessors while benefiting from a new, wider body that provided increased interior space and improved visibility courtesy of a single-piece wrap-around windscreen, replacing the XK140’s divided screen. Cleverly, the new body used many XK120/140 pressings, the increased width being achieved by means of a 4”-wide central fillet. A higher front wing line and broader radiator grille were other obvious differences, but the new model’s main talking point was its Dunlop disc brakes. Fade following repeated stops from high speed had been a problem of the earlier, drum-braked cars, but now the XK had stopping power to match its prodigious straight-line speed. Introduced in the spring of 1957, the XK150 was available at first only in fixed and drophead coupé forms, the open roadster version not appearing until the following year. At 190bhp, the engine’s maximum power output was identical to that of the XK140 so performance was little changed. ‘Special Equipment’ and ‘S’ versions came with 210 and 250bhp respectively, the latter delivering an astonishing 0-60mph time of 7.3 seconds and a top speed of 136mph.

Steel wheels remained the standard fitting, though XK150s so equipped are a great rarity, as most were sold in SE (Special Equipment) specification with centre-lock wire wheels. The much-admired chromed Jaguar mascot was made available as an optional extra on an XK for the first time. Delivered new to the USA in 1958, this wonderful 150S was re-imported to the UK in the early 2000’s. At this time it received a restoration by UK specialists who restored the car to the wonderful condition it presents itself today. Having covered under 5,000 miles since the restoration this wonderful example, finished in a stunning colour combination is ready to be used and enjoyed by its new custodian.

It was in 1971 that Jaguar introduced the Series III of their 20th Century classic E-Type, with the Walter Hassan/Harry Mundy-developed 5.3-liter SOHC V12 engine which became an industry standard for its combination of smoothly unobtrusive torque and power. With the large cross-slatted radiator grille – described by Motor Sport magazine as ‘a decorative birdcage’ – flared wheel arches accommodating wider track and bigger tires, plus V12 nomenclature adorning the tail, these Series III cars continued all the American Federal Regulations features of the preceding Series II models while also adopting uprated brakes and power steering as standard. From the new Series launch in 1971 to the end of production in 1975, some 15,200 were manufactured. Built in 1973, the sensational example of Jaguar’s legendary V12 E-Type offered here left the Browns Lane Jaguar Works configured in right hand drive with a desirable automatic gearbox. The V12 series III types were the last and most refined of the breed. The powerful V12 offered a smoothness that was seldom found in other vehicles of the day. Fitted with power steering comfortable seats and excellent brakes, V12 E Types became true grand touring vehicles. Finished in red coachwork with tan leather interior, and a wonderful wooden moto-lita steering wheel, the car has just been subjected to a restoration with new floorplans, full repaint and new chrome work. This delightful V12 comes with 12 months MOT.

Chassis Number: TBA

Estimate: £90,000-£110,000

Newly introduced for 1955, the Jaguar XK140 was broadly similar to, though more refined than, its sensational XK120 predecessor, major engineering changes being confined to the repositioning of the engine 3” further forward and the adoption of rack-and-pinion steering. The suspension and brakes remained much as before, though with stiffer torsion bars at the front and telescopic shock absorbers replacing lever type at the rear. Outwardly the newcomer was distinguishable by its revised radiator grille, rear lights incorporating flashing indicators, and larger bumpers. The power unit remained Jaguar’s well-tried, 3.4-litre, twin-cam six, which now produced 190bhp in standard trim. A close-ratio gearbox enabled better use to be made of the increased performance, and overdrive became an option for the first time. Special Equipment (SE) cars came with wire wheels and Lucas fog lamps, and could be ordered with an engine developing 210bhp courtesy of the C-type cylinder head. XK140 performance was well up to the standards set by its exemplary predecessor, contemporary road-tests regularly recording top speed figures in excess of 120mph (193km/h). Finished in red over tan this restored 3.4 litre XK is in wonderful condition. Benefitting from new chrome wire wheels and a new soft top, the seats have most recently been re-trimmed in leather. An excellent example of the model.

In 1965, the E-Type was treated to a number of evolutionary upgrades. The engine was enlarged to 4.2 litres, and while the rated horsepower was no higher the car had greater torque, which made it more versatile in traffic. The gearbox given full synchros, and the seat backs became adjustable. Brushed aluminium trim in the cockpit was replaced by moulded plastic and leather, and a new brake booster was adopted. A larger radiator was also fitted. Not long afterwards, safety and emission regulations began having their way with the E-Type, altering both its appearance and its performance. So-called “Series 1.5″ cars, an unofficial designation, had exposed headlamps and new switchgear and heralded the start of a new generation of the E-Type model. They are known to be the rarest E-Types of all with only around 2,801 produced in total for both the domestic and export markets. This gorgeous Jaguar was manufactured in January 1968 and registered in February 1968 through Jaguar cars, New York, USA to Mr K. K. Arnold, who owned the car for some years before it was repatriated back into the UK. In current ownership the E-Type has benefited from an engine rebuild, and mated to triple Weber carburettors which sound fantastic and perform extremely well. The E-Type has benefitted from a recent rolling road set-up courtesy of specialist engineer Ric Wood Motorsport, ensuring it runs and drives as nicely as it looks. Finished in stunning Carmen Red black leather upholstery and hood, this is a beautiful well-sorted example of one of the rarest variants of the legendary EType.

1954 Jaguar XK120 Roadster Original UK Right Hand Drive - Extensive history file Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: 661145

Estimate: £90,000 - £120,000

Jaguar XK120 caused an absolute sensation when it was launched at the 1948 Motor Show. In the post-war era of rationing, general austerity and hardship it came as a stunning vision of what the future might hold. It was, without doubt, the most beautiful car in the world, and the fastest unsupercharged production sports model ever made up to that time. Its claimed top speed of 120mph was so astonishing that to prove it Jaguar took one over to Belgium and clocked 132mph! The response from the public at the Motor Show launch on 20th October 1948 caught Jaguar by surprise, and as orders poured in it was immediately obvious that the level of home and export demand could only be satisfied by moving from a lightweight alloy-bodied ash frame construction to tooling up for volume production in steel. This took time to achieve and the first 57 right hand drive cars, and 183 left-hand drive cars, were hand-produced in lightweight aluminium alloy. Throughout the 6 year production run, Jaguar manufactured a mere 609 RHD roadsters for the home market and we are proud to be offering one of them here today.

Finished in British Racing Green with beige leather upholstery this wonderful example has been subject to a thorough renovation with bills accounting to in excess of £20,000 GBP. Works completed included fitment of a new clutch, exhaust manifolds, stainless steel exhaust system, front shock absorbers, cooling hoses all-round, electric fan and switch, and overhaul of front suspension, hydraulics, carburettors and starter motor. The attention to detail of the refurbishment is to the extent that even two new 12 volt batteries have been wired in parallel so as to avoid any issues starting this XK120 in the future.

1962 Jaguar E-type Series I Flat Floor Roadster Registration Number: EU taxes paid

Chassis Number: 876484

Estimate: £190,000- £225,000

‘If Les Vingt Quatre Heures du Mans has been responsible for the new E-Type Jaguar, then that Homeric contest on the Sarthe circuit will have been abundantly justified. Here we have one of the quietest and most flexible cars on the market, capable of whispering along in top gear at 10mph or leaping into its 150mph stride on the brief depression of a pedal. A practical touring car, this, with its wide doors and capacious luggage space, yet it has a sheer beauty of line which easily beats the Italians at their own particular game.’ There have been few better summaries of the E-Type’s manifest virtues than the forgoing, penned by the inimitable John Bolster for Autosport shortly after the car’s debut. Introduced in 3.8-litre form in 1961, the Jaguar E-Type (XKE in the USA) caused a sensation when it appeared, with instantly classic lines and 150mph top speed. While, inevitably, the car’s stupendous straight-line performance and gorgeous looks grabbed the headlines, there was nevertheless a lot more to the E-Type beneath the skin.

The newcomer’s design owed much to that of the racing D-Type; indeed, the E-Type would be one of the last great sports cars developed directly from a successful competition ancestor. Just as in the D-Type, a monocoque tub formed the main body/chassis structure while a tubular spaceframe extended forwards to support the engine. The latter was the same 3.8-litre, triple-carburettor, ‘S’ unit first offered as an option on the preceding XK150. With a claimed 265 horsepower on tap, the E-Type’s performance did not disappoint; firstly, because it weighed around 500lb less than the XK150 and secondly because aerodynamicist Malcolm Sayer used experience gained with the D-Type to create one of the most elegant and efficient shapes ever to grace a motor car. Developed from that of the original XK120 sports car and refined in the racing D-Type, the double wishbone, independent front suspension was mounted on the forward subframe that supported the engine. The rear suspension broke new

ground for a large-capacity sports car, being independent at a time when most of its major rivals relied on the traditional live rear axle. Dunlop disc brakes were fitted to all four wheels; those at the rear being mounted inboard alongside the differential to reduce un-sprung weight. Only in terms of its transmission did the E-Type represent no significant advance over the XK150 whose durable four-speed Moss gearbox it retained. Despite the E-Type’s gorgeous appearance, taller drivers could find its interior somewhat lacking in space, a criticism addressed by the introduction of foot wells (and other, more minor modifications) early in 1962. But of all the versions of Jaguar’s long-lived and much-loved sports car, it is the very early ‘flat floor’ 3.8-litre cars built prior to February 1962 which, for many enthusiasts, remain the most desirable. This wonderful Flatfloor roadster has recently been imported from a significant collection in Dubai. Matching numbers as confirmed on the heritage certificate the car has been the subject of a no expense spared extensive restoration by a wellknown specialist. It is presented in concours condition it has to be one of the very best of its type currently available, this beautiful early ‘flat floor’ E-Type is ready for any summer rally or show event.

1960 Jaguar XK150S 3.8 Litre Fixed Head Coupe Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: T825138DN

Estimate: £160,000 - £190,000

Introduced in the spring of 1957, the XK150 was available at first only in fixed and drophead coupé forms, the open roadster version not appearing until the following year. At 190bhp, the engine’s maximum power output was identical to that of the XK140 so performance was little changed. ‘Special Equipment’ and ‘S’ versions came with 210 and 250bhp respectively. This was achieved by the introduction of the Weslake-developed ‘straight-port’ cylinder head, high-compression pistons, triple 2” SU carburettors, and twin electric fuel pumps. Overdrive and a Borg-Warner automatic gearbox were the transmission options, the latter becoming an increasingly popular choice, while a Thornton Powr-Lok limited-slip differential was available for the XK150 ‘S’. Steel wheels remained the standard fitting, though XK150’s so equipped are a great rarity, as most were sold in ‘SE’ (Special Equipment) specification with centre-lock wire wheels. The much-admired chromed Jaguar mascot was made available as an optional extra on an XK for the first time. In the autumn of 1959 the XK150 became available with the 3.8-litre engine first seen in the Mark IX saloon. ‘Standard’ (220bhp) or ‘S’ (265bhp) states of tune were offered (the latter featuring overdrive as standard) and in either form the XK150’s increased weight was more than offset by the power of the larger engine, the car regularly recording in excess of 130mph in magazine road tests. Representing the XK150 in its highest specification, with 265bhp 3.8-litre engine and overdrive gearbox, this ultra-rare ‘S’ Fixed Head Coupe was despatched in February 1960 to J.E. Bullock & Son in Manchester to a Dr. Doreen Hayes, finished in Pearl Grey with a Red leather interior. In more recent years the XK150 has enjoyed much care and attention by recognised specialists such as Mark Danes, who completed a body and mechanical restoration in the early 1990’s, which included an overhauled gearbox and new clutch. The car was treated to further attention by highly regarded restorers LeRiche in Jersey, including the fitting of a stainless steel fuel tank. Returning to England, in the current long term ownership the XK150 has more recently benefited from rebuilt brakes, suspension, steering, and re-trim courtesy of Aldridge of Wolverhampton (who also replaced the windscreen with a correct part-tinted item). Notably the XK has spent six weeks during 2017 in the care of Jaguar Heritage of Ryton, where it enjoyed a health check, compression test and further minor improvements. Nicely finished in old English white with black leather interior, this represents an exciting opportunity to acquire the ultimate version of the legendary XK family.

1970 Jaguar E-type Series II Roadster Registration Number: EU taxes paid

Chassis Number: 2R14194

Estimate: £70,000- £90,000

The first significant up-grade of Jaguar’s sensational E-Type sports car occurred in October 1964 with the launch of the 4.2-litre version. Along with the bigger, torquier engine came a more user-friendly gearbox with synchromesh on first gear, and a superior Lockheed brake servo. Apart from ‘4.2’ badging, the car’s external appearance was unchanged, but under the skin there were numerous detail improvements. These mainly concerned the cooling and electrical systems, the latter gaining an alternator and adopting the industry standard negative ground, while the interior boasted a matt black dashboard and improved seating arrangements. The top speed of around 150mph remained unchanged, the main performance gain resulting from the larger engine being improved acceleration. Like its 3.8-litre forbear, the 4.2-litre E-Type was built in roadster and coupé forms, and in 1966 gained an additional 2+2 coupé variant on a 9” longer wheelbase. Intended to extend the E-Type’s appeal beyond the traditional sports carbuying market, the new ‘family orientated’ 2+2 came with improved visibility thanks to an increased glass area, more headroom, improved heating and ventilation, additional luggage space and optional Borg-Warner automatic transmission. In 1968 all three versions of the E-Type underwent major revision to comply with US safety and emissions legislation, emerging in ‘Series 2’ guise minus the original’s distinctive headlight covers. In addition, enlarged side and rear lights were adopted while a thickened front bumper centre section bridged a larger radiator intake. Interior changes included a collapsible steering column and rocker switches in place of the earlier toggles. Today, the E-Types graceful lines live on in modern Jaguar sports cars, and there can be little doubt that William Lyons’ sublime creation would feature in any knowledgeable enthusiast’s ‘Top Ten’ of the world’s most beautiful cars of all time. This E-Type Series ii Roadster has recently been imported to Europe from a significant collection in Dubai. The car was delivered in 1970 in this colour combination, it is matching numbers and offered with its heritage certification. The subject to a recent body and mechanical restoration by well-known specialists it sits on newly refurbished wire wheels shod with new tyres, the E-Type runs well, displaying good oil pressure; as one would expect. This restored example is exceptional.

1959 Jaguar XK150 Drophead Coupe Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: S827407DN

Estimate: £85,000 - £95,000

The bleak years after 1945 were, not surprisingly, an era when great sports cars were somewhat thin on the ground. A shining exception was the mighty Jaguar XK series, yet another product of the flawless stylist’s eye (to say nothing of the astute business brain) of Sir William Lyons. Unarguably one of the most elegant sports cars of all time, the XK120 used the superb twin-cam six-cylinder engine to provide 120mph performance and acceleration to suit the most demanding tastes. The series evolved further with the XK140 and ended finally with the most refined of all the models, the XK150. Launched in 1957, Jaguar’s XK150 was the third and final iteration of XK range and was considered by many to be the best driving model, not to mention the most comfortable especially in terms of leg-room!

Delivered new to a Mr Rattenbury in South West London with the original registration number ‘150 LPE’ the XK is now presented with the very desirable registration number ‘XK1501’. Being one of only 662 XK 150 Drophead Coupes, this example is one of the rare special equipment, manual overdrive versions in original RHD specification. Previously residing in a collection in Switzerland until 2009 at which time the car was offered at the Coys Blenheim Palace sale where the current vendor acquired the car.

Regularly used during the summer months the XK has taken part in many club meets throughout the UK and Europe. Offered with an extensive history file including many previous Mots a heritage certificate and invoices of maintenance work. Also included in the sale is the previously fitted XK moss gearbox.

1962 Jaguar E-Type 3.8 Fixed Head Coupe Early Aluminium dashboard example Single ownership for 25 Years Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: 885801

Estimate: £40,000 - £60,000 No Reserve

Introduced in 3.8-litre form in 1961, the Jaguar E-Type caused a sensation when it appeared, with instantly classic lines and 150mph top speed. Its design owed much to that of the racing D-Type: a monocoque tub forming the main structure while a tubular space frame extended forwards to support the engine. The latter was the 3.8-litre, triple-carburettor, ‘S’ unit first offered as an option on the XK150. An optimistic 265bhp was claimed, but whatever the installed horsepower, the E-Type’s performance did not disappoint. One of the most elegant and efficient shapes ever to grace a motor car. The Jaguar 3.8 fixed head coupe is probably one of the most desirable ‘E’ types and this superb example has one of the most desirable specifications one could wish for. Chassis number 885801 rolled of the production line on the 14th March 1962 and was originally UK registered as ‘951 WK’. Ordered in European, left hand drive specification the original distributor, and well-known racing driver Peter Linder of Frankfurt Germany who incidentally was killed while racing his own E-type during the 1,000 kilometres of Paris just a couple of years later sold the Jaguar to its first owner Mr R Rockwell of Konstanz Germany who took delivery of the

car when visiting the UK under the tax free personal export scheme. By 1971 the E-type resided in America in the dry state of Indiana. The current vendor acquired the car in 1993 from marque specialists Thoroughbred Motors of Sarasota, Florida having been partly restored, leaving just the bare metal body and front subframe to be repainted to its original colour. Repatriated to the UK in 1993 by the current vendor the E-type was welcomed and re-registered with its original registration number ‘951 WK’ which remains today. The restoration work including a bare metal respray to its original colour and a conversion to Right hand drive specification was completed by an ex Jaguar mechanic and by 1994 the car was in use once again mainly gathering weekend miles. By the late 90’s the E-type was laid up in a dry stored barn where it has sat up until now.

Offered in the history file are previous Mots dating back to the late 90’s, photos of the restoration process, a dating certificate confirming the original specification as well as bills and invoices of previous work carried out.

1964 Jaguar Mark II 3.4 comprehensive older restoration and recent £30k+ refurbishment Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: 159871DN

Estimate: £25,000 - £35,000

Although the Mk I was a great success, selling four times as many as the larger Jaguar saloons, Jaguar boss William Lyons was not content. He knew it could be improved. Happily, virtually every aspect that had been criticised received attention in the new MkII range introduced in October 1959. These cars were to rank among the best loved Jaguars ever made and are today regarded as classics. There were some detail changes, including a redesigned interior that was more modern but retained the traditional Jaguar image. Jaguar saloons led the field in production and touring car races during much of the 1960’s. Not surprisingly the quickest and most successful private entries came from John Coombs’ Jaguar dealership in Guilford. John Coombs had significant race experience and his dealership simply got it right for a fortunate few racing enthusiasts. Very early on that included Hill, Salvadori and Salmon. This fabulous 3.4 litre example was despatched when new in July 1962, finished in opalescent grey with a red leather interior. In long term ownership for many years, the Mark II enjoyed much mechanical, bodywork and trim restoration work in the late 1990s. This includes a bodywork restoration and refinish by R.S. Coachworks and a retrim in soft wine red leather, supported by bills for many thousands of pounds. In current ownership the car has been extremely well maintained by a former F1 race engineer, with no stone left unturned. It is estimated that £30,000+ has been spent on various improvements, which have included a full rewire, partial refinishing to the paint, attention to the engine and cooling, also brakes and suspension. Offered with a comprehensive history file, a new MOT certificate with no advisories, and much recent expenditure, this is a beautifully sorted, fabulous driving gentleman’s express.

Ref 32 1964 Daimler 250 V8 Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: 1A4741BW

Estimate: £7,000 - £10,000

Jaguar’s principal motive in purchasing Coventry neighbours Daimler had been the acquisition of much needed production capacity without the expense of constructing on a distant ‘green field’ site. The fact that the purchase also included Daimler’s splendid lightweight V8 engines was entirely incidental from Jaguar’s standpoint, yet would result in the creation of one of the finest sports saloons of the 1960s. First seen in the rapid, if controversially styled, SP250 sports car, the 2.5-litre version was judged superior to Jaguar’s 2.4-litre XK six and so the opportunity arose to create a medium sized, upmarket model based on the Mk2 saloon, something Daimler’s leading distributor, Stratstone, had been crying out for. The job was made relatively easy by the V8’s compact nature and the generously sized Jaguar engine bay. Launched in 1962 as the ‘2½-Litre V8’ (later ‘V8 250’), the new Daimler came with Borg Warner automatic transmission as standard. More refined than the equivalent Jaguar, the Daimler turned out to be a fine performer to boot, its 110mph top speed exceeding that of an overdrive-equipped, 2.4-litre Mk2 by a wide margin. Not surprisingly, the V8 was soon outselling its Jaguar rival and in due course became the most successful Daimler of all time with more than 17,600 sold up to the end of production in 1969. With only one previous owner from new, this wonderful example is offered with an extensive history file of invoices and MOT’s dating back to the early 90s including its bill of sale by the current vendor from Sotheby’s in 1993! Having had a small fortune spent on the car in its current custodianship, this wonderful Daimler is ready to be enjoyed for many years to come!

1972 Jaguar D Type by Realm Engineering Single family ownership for over two decades Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: TBC

Estimate: £45,000 - £55,000

Realm Engineering of Honeybourne in Worcestershire has built up a fine reputation over almost four decades for its RAM recreations. In particular, their Jaguar D-types which benefitted from chassis design input by Reynard Racing resulting in greater strength and ultimately better road-holding. After a three-hour stint behind the wheel of a Realm D-Type Sir Jack Brabham commented: “That’s a damn sight better than the original!” Richard Noble has one of his own, and Sir Stirling Moss OBE said: “You guys have done an excellent job here, you should be proud.” Jaguar Quarterly magazine described the car as ‘impressive’ with handling ‘beyond question’ and ‘a whole bucketload of fun’. This fabulously authentic example of Realm’s D-Type has been in current ownership for a number of years, during which it has been restored to a high standard featuring many period-correct details including period cockpit dials. Professionally built in 1990 the D-Type was constructed using a 3.8 litre engine with triple weber carburettors, a big valve cylinder head, D type cams and E Type high compression pistons. Mated to the 3.8 Litre motor is a four speed all synchromesh gearbox fitted with overdrive. The attention to detail with this example is second to none and with just C.1,800 miles since the build and rolling road test the D-Type both runs and drives beautifully and sits proudly on Dunlop style racing wheels. Having been in single family ownership since 1990 and dry stored ever since this is easily one of the best examples we have seen.

1968 Daimler Sovereign 420 - 23,000 miles from new Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: IA32492BW

Estimate: £5,000 - £8,000

The Daimler Sovereign was introduced at the October 1966 London Motor Show, and produced for two years as the ultimate expression of a series of ‘compact sporting saloons’ offered by Jaguar throughout that decade, all of which shared the same wheelbase. Developed from the Jaguar S-Type, the 420 cost around £200 more. The S-Type continued to be sold alongside the 420/Sovereign until both were supplanted by the Jaguar XJ6 late in 1968. Finished in Gunmetal Metallic with a St. James red leather interior, this 420 is offered with a history file dating back to the mid-1980s. In 1985 and with 16,000 miles recorded the Jaguar was bought by a Mr. Norman Lewes. Lewes treated his new Jaguar to new tyres, shock absorbers, a stainless exhaust and also halogen lights. Now showing c. 23,000 miles recorded (believed genuine judging by the condition of the interior and pedals), the 420 has benefitted from recent recommissioning work followed by a decent shakedown run of c. 300 miles. Whilst the interior presents well, we understand the paintwork would benefit from some attention due to microblistering in places, for which we have made an allowance in the estimate. Having said that we firmly believe with a little more cosmetic attention this would make a very stylish, practical, smooth and powerful classic car. Estimate:

1978 Daimler Double Six Drop Head Coupe Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: TBA

Estimate: £25,000 - £30,000

From 1972 Jaguar’s 5.3 litre V12 engine was available in the XJ range, and for the Daimler version a name used by the company from 1926 to 1938 was revived. Sir William Lyons had retired from Jaguar in 1972 and the new chairman was FRW (Lofty) England. Lofty England had been a Daimler apprentice from 1927 to 1932 and taken second place in the first ever RAC rally driving a 30/40hp Daimler Double-Six. So Lofty England decreed that the new V12 Daimler would be known as Double-Six. Unlike the Jaguar, the twelve-cylinder Daimler had the same radiator grill as its six-cylinder sibling, and externally only the badges distinguished them. The Double-Six followed the same changes as the Sovereign from Series I to Series III, although the Sovereign name was transferred to Jaguar, the Double-Six name remained with Daimler throughout Series III production, which continued until 1992. In late 1972, the particularly well-equipped Double-Six Vanden Plas appeared. On a 4 inches (100 mm) longer wheelbase, this model also received a black vinyl roof to set it apart A two-door coupé was offered in the Double-Six Series II range from 1975 to 1977, as an addition to the four door saloon. It was marketed as the Daimler Double-Six two door. Soon the style and grace was seen by coachbuilders to be perfect for a convertible version, which Avon Stevens was authorised by Jaguar Cars to build. Along with the cars built at the factory, build kits were also produced but of an unknown quantity. This spectacular vehicle was built to Avon Stevens specification eight years ago, when it underwent a major body restoration keeping the special order black coachwork. Since that time the car has been in storage but in the last few years has had much other work done including, axels, braking system discs, callipers, suspension, stainless steel exhaust, newly chromed bumpers, wheels tyres and more. The XJ has one of the best rides available renowned throughout the motoring world and this one shows why this 5.3-litre V12 is the car to have on a sunny weekend or continental drive. The car comes with a Heritage Certificate, current MOT and excellent history file.

1986 Ferrari Mondial Cabriolet - 17,500 miles from new Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: TBA

Estimate: £25,000 - £28,000

The Mondial saw Ferrari return to Pininfarina as its choice of styling house, and it was sold as a mid-sized Coupé and, eventually, a Cabriolet. Conceived as a ‘more usable’ model, offering the practicality of four seats with the performance of a mid-range Ferrari, it was aimed at attracting a slightly wider audience than their traditionally more focused two-seaters. The car’s body was not built as a monocoque in the same way as a conventional car but instead, the steel outer body was produced by the famous Italian coachbuilder Carrozzeria Scaglietti, just down the road in nearby Modena and clothed a lightweight steel box-section space frame. The Mondial was the first Ferrari where the entire engine/gearbox/ rear suspension assembly was mounted on a detachable steel sub-frame, making engine removal for a major rebuild or cylinder head removal much easier than it had been on earlier models. Showing a low mileage of only 17,500 miles, this original Right Hand Drive example is said to drive as well as it looks. A highly accessible entry level classic Ferrari which we are sure will provide lots of fun over the summer months.

1974 Citroen SM Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: OOSC 3478

Estimate: £25,000 - £30,000

‘Project S’ emerged from Citroën’s requirement to develop a sports variant of the revolutionary DS. As was customary for the quirky French firm, many running concept vehicles were developed with increasingly complex and upmarket features to differentiate the ‘sports’ project from the popular DS. The acquisition of Maserati by Citroën in 1968 was motivated by the possibility of harnessing Maserati’s high-performance engine technology to produce a true Grand Tourer, combining the sophisticated Citroën suspension with the power of a Maserati V6. The result was the Citroën SM, which was first shown to rapturous appreciation at the Geneva Motor Show in March 1970. It went on sale in France in September of that year in left-hand drive only, although right-hand drive conversions were later offered in the UK and Australia. The SM was Citroën’s flagship vehicle, competing with other high-performance GT’s of the time from manufacturers such as Jaguar, Lotus, Ferrari, Aston Martin, Alfa Romeo and Porsche. It was also Citroën’s way of demonstrating just how much power and performance could be accommodated in a front-wheel drive design. As an example of Citroën’s optimism and progressive technology, the SM was untouchable, and similarities drawn by pundits of the day to the design and futurism of aircraft such as Concorde cemented the love affair still borne by car aficionados today. This 1974 example was delivered new to the UK, finished in beautiful ivory with a tan leather interior and oatmeal carpets; a very stylish combination. Showing a mere 64,000 miles recorded over 44 years, the SM has had just 4 previous keepers, and was owned since 1990 by the expert and SM aficionado David Chaulkin. The SM is nicely specified with a period Blaupunkt radio, stainless steel exhaust system, electric windows and power steering, and a recent addition of the correct Michelin YWX high speed radial tyres on each corner. SM’s are really starting to be appreciated for what they are and values are increasing rapidly, and we feel this nice example really does merit further inspection.

The Silver Spirit was introduced by Rolls-Royce in 1980 as the first of a new generation of company models. It formed the basis for the Flying Spur, Silver Dawn, Touring Limousine, Park Ward, and Bentley Mulsanne/Eight series. The Spirit/Spur carried over the basic design of the Silver Shadow, its 6.75 L L410 V8 engine and GM sourced THM 400 3-speed automatic gearbox, and similarly styled unitary bodywork manufactured at Pressed Steel. The Spur/Spirit continued the Silver Shadow’s emphasis on ride quality by utilising its hydropneumatic self-levelling suspension, modified with Girling automatic hydraulic ride height control system and gas-charged shock absorbers The Silver Spur was a long-wheelbase version of the Silver Spirit, and this was the first car to feature the retractable Spirit of Ecstasy. Three incarnations of both cars appeared between 1980 and 1997; the Mark I (1980-1989), the Mark II (19891993) and the Mark III (1993-1996). This stunning early Mark I Spur was first registered in 1983 to a member of the British Royal Household, registered on diplomatic number plates which have only more recently been removed. The Spur was finished in dark metallic Oyster with a gold-plated Spirit of Ecstasy mascot and badges, and grey everflex roof. The interior was specified in grey leather piped in maroon, grey carpets and lambswool over rugs. Further enhancements included a decanter and document cabinets, front & rear head restraints, footstools, rear picnic tables and walnut wood trim. This incredible specimen has covered just c.10,500 miles from new, and offers we believe incredible value for vehicle of such low mileage and impeccable provenance.

1972 Mercedes-Benz 600 SWB Registration Number: EU Taxes Paid

Chassis Number: TBA

Estimate: £40,000 - £45,000

The Mercedes-Benz 600, introduced in September 1964, continued the tradition of the pre-war Grosser 770K which had been so popular with the highest echelons of the German society: the 600 was an exclusive motor car built without compromise for royalty, heads of state, pop stars and tycoons who could afford the ultimate. Like its predecessor, the 600 was the last word in grandeur and opulence, and no creature comfort was omitted. With a 6.3-litre fuel injected V8 engine producing 300bhp at the wheels, the 600 was capable of over 120mph and 0-60mph in just 9.5 seconds, which was a feat in itself. There was a limited slip differential, servo steering and calliper brakes with vacuum servo at both ends. Other amenities included hydraulically operated windows, sunroof, glass partition, boot light, horizontal/vertical movement and backrest angles of seats, and full electrically controlled air conditioning. As not even the Rolls-Royce Phantom could compete with such an array of features, it is hardly surprising that the 600 cost a whopping DM 56,500 at the time of its launch, this figure having risen to DM 144,100 by the time production ceased in 1981. This beautiful example was supplied new to the United States in 1972, later becoming part of a deceased estate with a value estimated to be in the region of £140m. Subsequently the 600 found its way to the UK and into a private collection, being serviced by Mercedes in Stuttgart and specialist John Haynes in the south of England. The 600 is extremely nicely finished in Raven Black, complimented by an unmarked tan leather interior and beautifully presented wood cappings. A very nice example of possibly the finest limousine ever made.

1962 Daimler Ferret Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: TBA

Estimate: £10,000 - £15,000

Faced with the requirement to update its light armored vehicles post-WWII, the British Ministry of Defence turned to the Daimler company. Development began in 1949 and the resulting Ferret armored, or Scout, first entered service in 1952. The Ferret shared many design features with its Daimler Dingo predecessor but incorporated a larger crew compartment and a small machine gun turret. The six-cylinder engine was a Rolls-Royce B60 overhead-valve petrol unit developing 129bhp, good enough to endow the 3.75-ton (‘dry’) Ferret with a top speed close to 60mph. Drive was transmitted via a fluid flywheel to a five-speed preselective gearbox and thence via a transfer ‘box to all four wheels. Produced by Daimler in 1962 and in active service for a further 30 years, the Ferret last saw active service in with the Royal Hussars on the Rhine valley in 1992. Part of a private collection for over 20 years, the Ferret is fully equipped still with (de-activated) smoke grenade launchers, a periscope, also shovels, axe and gerry cans should you need to dig yourself out of a tricky situation. With a torquey Rolls-Royce 4.2 litre motor, four-wheel-drive and a pre-selector gearbox, we are sure this will be a hoot to drive - down roads, over hedges and fields and through streams and rivers!

1994 Ferrari 348 Spider Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: TBA

Estimate: £35,000 - £42,000

Introduced in 1989 as a replacement for the very successful 328 series, the 348 production line ran until 1995, when the 355 took its place. Late in 1993 the 348 saw subtle revisions in the bodywork and a new engine management system giving a power increase from 300bhp to 320bhp from its 3.4-litre V8. At the same time, the suspension was revised and rear axle widened, vastly improving both the handling and ride quality. In a 2015 retrospective, EVO Magazine compared the 458 Italia against its 308, 348, F355, 360 and F430 ancestors, where Henry Catchpole noted the primary highlight of the day being the 348’s steering, describing it as, “instantly obvious this car has some of the best steering, possibly the best, that I have ever sat behind.” He expounded on the car’s analogue character, describing the steering as, “coming alive in my hands. It literally starts wriggling around, talking excitedly about all the bumps in the road and sometimes making a bigger gesture as a camber attracts its attention. Despite the lack of assistance and the wheel’s relatively small diameter, it’s not heavy in any way, there’s just perfect weight and no slack to add to the constant communication.” This rare right hand drive, UK delivered 348 Spider is nicely presented in Nero Black with contrasting Crema Leather interior. Showing a mere 40,000 miles recorded from new, supported by the relevant service records, the 348 has been in the ownership of just one enthusiast for the last 11 years, and kept in a temperature controlled garage. A very original example of this modern classic, which is ready to be enjoyed by its next lucky owner.

1968 Mercedes Benz 280SL Pagoda Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: TBA

Estimate: £80,000- £100,000

“Some cars don’t change, they just get better. The Mercedes-Benz 280SL, latest version of a line that began as the 230SL in 1963, is the same as ever, just better,” concluded Road & Track after testing a 280SL in 1968. “For those who value engineering, finesse and high quality construction, it’s alone in the field,” enthused the highly respected American motoring magazine, while its manufacturer considered the 280SL, “a Grand Tourer in the traditional sense” and “a unique combination of sports car performance and saloon car comfort (a Mercedes-Benz saloon naturally).” These attributes help explain the 280SL’s phenomenal success, particularly in the all-important North American market where the optional automatic transmission was considered an essential feature by the majority of customers. The fact that it looked like “sex on wheels” helped enormously too, of course. The 280SL’s essential user friendliness broadened its appeal beyond the traditional sports car enthusiast market, and many celebrities and film stars owned 280SLs. The last of a popular and extremely successful line begun with the 230SL of 1963, the Mercedes-Benz 280SL was introduced in 1967 powered by a new 2.8-liter six-cylinder engine that produced 170bhp, 20 horsepower more than the preceding 250SL. The 280SL’s 120mph top speed was no greater but it was significantly quicker off the mark, its 0-60mph time of 10 seconds being a whole second better than its predecessor. Christened “pagoda top” after their distinctive cabin shape, these SL models were amongst the best-loved sports-tourers of their day, and are increasingly sought after by collectors who have rediscovered their significant merits. Assembled at the Mercedes-Benz factory in Stuttgart, Germany, during the summer of 1969, this fine 280SL was delivered new in right hand drive. Having spent most of its life in Ireland , it has been with its current vendor for 3 years in London. Displaying good panel gaps, this 280SL has that outstanding quality feel so indicative of the marque. Complete with hardtop, radio, books, tools and copies of the factory build sheets, this fine example of the legendary Pagoda-top 280SL is ready for its next caretaker.

1998 AC Cobra 427 Mark III - the 7th of 11 produced by AC Cars Two owners and only 3,000 miles from new Raced in period at Silverstone, Brands Hatch, Snetterton, Castle Combe and Mallory Park Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: COB4007

Estimate: £190,000 - £230,000

By 1963 the leaf-spring Cobra was losing its supremacy in racing. Shelby tried fitting a larger Ford FE 390ci engine, naming it the Mark II, which was further developed into the newly designated Mark III. A new chassis was built using 4 inch main chassis tubes and coil spring suspension all around. The new car also had wider wings and larger radiator opening, and was powered by the “side oiler” Ford 427ci engine rated at 425bhp, which gave 164mph in the standard model, uprated to 485bhp and 185mph in the competition model. Cobra Mark III production began on the 1st of January 1965 with cars being sent to the US as unpainted rolling chassis, which were then finished in Shelby’s workshop. The Mark III was raced successfully by many privateers and went on to win races all the way into the 1970’s. During the late 1990’s AC Cars, buoyed by the success of its popular Mark IV model, revisited the legendary Mark III model with a very limited run of Mark III Continuation cars. All were built on the original 1960’s tooling, with hand formed aluminium bodies and 1966 specification Ford side oiler 427ci motors mated to a top loader gearbox and Salisbury rear differential. Aluminium bodies were constructed on the original 1965 body jigs to the correct specification, using the traditional English wheel, with all sections being gas-welded together. In all, eleven were built before AC cars closed its doors in Frimley in 2006. The car presented here is Chassis ‘COB4007’, the seventh produced and delivered new as a Right Hand Drive street car to Steve Gray of AC specialist Brooklands Cars of Weybridge, fitted with the correct under exhaust system and rear lamps. Brooklands Cars went on to own the car for 17 years, during which time it acquired FIA HTP papers and was entered into many club races, hillclimbs, and also the Brighton Speed Trials. The Cobra also became AC Cars’ official promotional car, and was invited to Buckingham Palace in celebration of the Queen’s 90th birthday celebrations. COB4007 also featured in print publications such as Top Gear Magazine (driven by Richard Hammond), Octane and Classic Cars. Finished in period Guardsman Blue with Wimbledon stripes, this fabulous example has had just two owners from new, has covered a mere 3,000 miles, and is offered with a detailed history file including original build data, magazine features, older HTP papers and records of period race history. An unrepeatable opportunity for the true Cobra enthusiast.

1960 BMW Isetta 300 Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: 325043

Estimate: £12,000 - £15,000

One of the more successful designs of the cabin scooter’s heyday was the BMW Isetta, a model the German firm manufactured under license from its Italian originator, Iso (the name means ‘little Iso’). Faced with competition from the FIAT 500 and 600, Renzo Rivolta’s Iso was not selling well in its native Italy and it would be left to BMW to fully exploit the design’s potential. Although at first glance a three-wheeler, the German-built Isetta used a pair of closely spaced wheels at the rear and was powered by a BMW single-cylinder four-stroke motorcycle engine of 247cc, replacing the original’s noisy two-stroke motor. The coachwork of early examples featured a side-hinged single door at the front, roll-top sunroof and fixed side windows, while the steering wheel and dashboard were attached to the door to facilitate entry. The two-seater Isetta’s most popular accessory, understandably so given the limited interior space, was a small luggage rack mounted at the rear. Later (1957-onwards) models incorporated sliding side windows for better ventilation. These improved models displaced 297cc and the ‘big’ Isetta 300 was reckoned capable of 65mph and 55mpg. Approximately 162,000 Isettas had been made by the time production ceased in 1962. This fantastic Isetta is offered in a wonderful colour combination and is presented in very good all-round condition. The paintwork is very good as is the interior which show very little signs of wear. Mechanically the raspy 300cc engine performs very well and has recently been used for shows and club events. A great opportunity to own one of the marquees most treasured models this fun little Isetta is ready for the open road with a new custodian and is offered with a UK registration document.

1970 Fiat Abarth 695 Esseesse Corsa Registration Number: EU Taxes Paid

Chassis Number: 1511006/106/00618

Estimate: £35,000 - £45,000

Abarth began in business, like so many other motoring concerns in post-war Italy, modifying small capacity cars from Fiat. When the latter introduced the Nuova 500, and then the 600, Abarth suddenly had a mass produced basis on which to build giant-killing racing cars. This sealed Abarth’s future and his firm went from strength to strength, going on to win more races than any other manufacturer; some 7,000 in total, in addition to 5 world and 113 international speed records. In all categories contested, Abarth was virtually unbeatable, even by larger engine race cars and the firm won six successive World Manufacturers Championship titles in the mid-1960’s, along with the European Mountain Climb Championship and numerous other titles. It is no surprise then to learn that Carlo Abarth was nicknamed ‘The Wizard’ or ‘The Sorcerer’! This little car was campaigned in numerous regional hillclimb championships in Italy and all of the important competitions from 1970 to 1975, always finishing with good results including many wins, while its drivers include G. Valenti, G. Sisto, F. Ferroni, G. Mercadante and M. Ricci. The 820cc engine, mechanically prepared by specialist Leo Garavaello, has been prepared with special camshafts and fitted with twin choke Solex 40 carburettors, enlarged valves, a lightened flywheel and many other modifications. Power is fed through a five speed racing gearbox, while the wheels are 13” diameter all round. Inside, there is a Momo Abarth lightweight steering wheel and a homologated roll cage.

1986 Peugeot 1.9 205 Gti Phase 1 Registration Number: TBA

Estimate: £10,000 - £16,000

The King of the hot hatches. Volkswagen may have started the GTI craze in 1976, but many still consider the Peugeot 205 GTI as the greatest of them all. The 205 was launched in 1983, a brilliant rival to its contemporaries with its ‘wheel at each corner’ design and flyweight mass. No wonder it won What Cars ‘Car of the Year’ in 1984 and was declared ‘Car of the Decade’ by CAR Magazine in 1990. The 205 1.6 GTI arrived in April 1984, singled out for its sublime handling and revvy 105bhp engine. The 205 T16 winning the World Rally Championship in 1985, helping to promote the road-going 205’s inherent abilities and ultimate potential. The GTI model was produced until 1994, firmly establishing itself as a must-have future classic and today, low-mileage, genuine examples are very rare, extremely hard to unearth and much sought-after. This very early example is said to be the oldest RHD example left in the world. Having had the same owner since 1990, it is no surprise to see that the car has been very well looked after.

1977 Porsche 911 S Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: TBC

Estimate: £25,000 - £35,000

After 1973, it was decided that the 2.4 litre wasn’t really fast enough for the 911, with the impending American emissions standards threatening to slow the model down to the point that ordinary Cadillac’s would smoke its droopy tail. The solution; to take the 2.7-litre engine developed for the Carrera RS, detune it a bit, and make it standard across the board. This made the 911 a very usable sports car for all driving conditions. It was only natural that capacity for mainstream production should be increased to 2,687cc, which gave a good increase in torque to match the 165bhp of the 911 2.7 Coupe. Described to be a lovely daily driver, the 911S on offer here is still finished in its original colour combination. Having had a vast amount of work done, both mechanically and cosmetically, the car is in good condition in all respects. Offered with a fantastic history file including maintenance records, and the registration document this sporty 911 is ready to hit the road and provide as much fun to its new owner as it has to its last.

1964 Aston Martin DB5 Registration Number: TBA

Chassis Number: TBA

Estimate: Refer Department

To many observers the Aston Martin DB5 is the epitome of the company’s models during the David Brown era, boasting both beauty and refined high performance. It is also perhaps the best known Aston Martin in the world, having starred in the James Bond films Goldfinger and Thunderball, complete with machine guns and other gadgetry. In evolution terms the DB5 is a Series V DB4 but with a 4.0 rather than 3.7 litre engine, its coachwork embodying detail changes; it thus featured similar stunning styling from Touring of Milan, incorporating DB4 GT-style faired-in headlamps, with aluminium panels attached to a lightweight steel frame using Touring’s Superleggera method of construction. Underneath the platform chassis used independent coil spring wishbone front suspension with a live rear axle located by Watt linkage and parallel trailing arms. Disc brakes were fitted all round, but the Girling items of the DB4 GT rather than the DB4’s Dunlop discs.

Following its launch in July 1963 in saloon and convertible forms the DB5 received much praise, not least for its performance. A maximum of 148mph in standard trim, allied to 0-60 and 0-100mph in 7.1 and 16.9 seconds respectively, made the DB5 one of the fastest cars available and a match for the very best from Europe. Its production, however, was fairly short-lived, ending in September 1965 after 1,021 had been made; of these only 123 were Convertibles while just 65 had the Vantage engine. This very interesting DB5 Saloon was delivered new on 19th February 1964, finished in Sierra Blue with a contrasting grey connolly leather interior, and optioned with a sliding roof, wireless radio and heater. By the late 1990s the Aston was advertised for sale at Aston Martin specialist Nicholas Mee of London at 57,500 miles, selling the DB5 to Fawaz Al Hasawi, businessman and former owner of Nottingham Forrest football club.

Buyers should satisfy themselves prior to sale as to the condition of each lot and should exercise and rely on their own judgement as to whether the lot accords with its description. Coys accepts no liability for the accuracy of these particulars.


The sale was completed on the basis that the car was refinished to “James Bond specification”, as such the DB5 was repainted in Silver Birch and the interior retrimmed in black leather. Al Hasawi kept the DB5 for a number of years as part of his collection, during which time he entrusted maintenance and repair work to Aston Service London and specialists Ian Mason and Trinity Engineering, supported by invoices on file totalling c. £65,000. The DB5 was later sold in 2015 to our current vendor via the specialist dealer Movendi in Duesseldorf, Germany, at which point it had been converted to left hand drive specification. Our vendor, a very keen James Bond enthusiast, decided to recreate the Goldfinger car with most of Q’s associated weapons and gadgets, and as such he entrusted a London-based specialist with the work. Revolving number plates were fitted to the front and rear of the car, very authentic “machine guns” spitting real flames appear from the grille at the flick of a switch, and a rear mounted “smoke gun” creates the desired smoke screen where necessary. Showing now c.60,000 miles recorded, and offered with a current and older UK V5 documents, a file of servicing a repair works completed, copy of original build sheet, and a number of MoT certificates dating to the 1990s, this is a wonderful proposition for the serious Bond fan.

1956 MGA Fixed Head Coupe Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: TBA

Estimate: £20,000 - £25,000

For the debut of its new MGA in 1955, MG wisely chose that year’s Le Mans 24 Hour race. After a succession of openwheeled models there were fears of an adverse reaction to such a streamlined car, and it was felt that by showing the MGA in competition first, the aerodynamic shape would be accepted as a performance essential. There had been some delays however in getting the go-ahead for production, MG owner BMC initially declining, having already agreed with Donald Healey to build the Austin Healey 100. It was the success of a highly streamlined MGA prototype, which took several records up to 153mph, which finally persuaded BMC to relent. The car was an instant success and in 1956 the roadster was joined by a fixed head coupé. Finished in red with a black leather interior, this delightful right hand drive MGA is presented in excellent condition. A charming example of the rare hard top version of MG’s classic late 1950’s sportscar.

Chassis Number: TBC

Estimate: £7,000 – 9,000

Founded in 1920 by the Giannini brothers – Attilio and Domenico – as a garage, the company began tuning the little FIAT 500 Topolino in the 1930s and secured 12 world speed records with one of its modified cars. In the early 1960s the original company closed, the brothers going their separate ways to found new enterprises. Attilio’s new design company lasted only until 1971 but that founded by Domenico – Giannini Automobili SpA – survives today as part of the FIAT Group. In 1963 Giannini Automobili began modifying cars and selling tuning kits. That same year it introduced its own modified version of the baby FIAT – the 500TV – and throughout the decade and into the 1970s Giannini-tuned cars battled with those of its rival Abarth on the racetracks of Europe. In 1966 Maurizio Zanetti became Italian Champion driving a Giannini-tuned FIAT 500. In more recent years Giannini has specialised in the production of limited-edition versions of FIAT production models. The example on offer here is presented in good all-round condition. The body is very straight and the interior shows very little sign of age. In good mechanical order the Fiat 500 is ready for a new custodian and is offered with a UK registration document and a history file with bills and receipts of work that has been previously completed.

1957 Bentley S1 Standard Steel Saloon Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: TBA

Estimate: £18,000 - £25,000

Bentley came back into the post-war luxury car market with the Mark VI, basically a refined and modernised version of the 4 1/4 litre of the 1930s; it was the first model to be offered with standardised steel coachwork direct from the factory as well as in coachbuilt versions, and was remarkably successful even in those straitened times, and even made an impact on the all-important export market, especially the USA. However, by the mid 1950s the design was starting to show its age. Automotive fashion was changing, cars were growing larger, and accordingly in 1955 Bentley introduced the splendid S type. Longer and arguably more elegant than its predecessor, the car was powered by a version of the magnificent straight six, but in a 4.9 litre twin carburettor form, and a four-speed automatic gearbox was fitted as standard. Of course the car retained the traditional luxurious leather-and-walnut ‘drawing room’ interior, and the Company made maintained its established policy of continuous improvement, so that by the time the time B218FA was built, in the summer of1958, the engine tune had been refined to increase output, and power steering was fitted as standard, a most desirable improvement on this very large car. Today’s example is a fine example of the breed, from finished in the classic period livery of Smoke Green and Sage, with the interior still upholstered for the most part in what seems to be the original matching green hide. The history file contains both the original folding buff logbook showing the ownership history to the mid 1970s, and a V5 registration document, together with some invoices and documentation relating to the car’s maintenance and refurbishment. These cars are remarkably satisfying to own, offering comfort and craftsmanship, as is shown by their continuing popularity in the owners clubs, and yet still offer truly surprising value in today’s market

1996 Bentley Continental R - 18,000 miles from new Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: TBA

Estimate: £25,000 - £30,000

Bentley’s 1980s resurgence had hitherto relied exclusively on models whose basic architecture was shared with other Rolls-Royce products; but on display at Geneva in 1985 was Project 90, a mocked-up coupé intended to gauge public response to the idea of a high-performance car unique to Bentley. When the real thing – the Bentley Continental R – was unveiled six years later, the waiting crowd burst into spontaneous applause. Styled with the assistance of consultants International Automotive Design, the Continental R benefited from computer-aided design and wind tunnel testing in the creation of its sleekly streamlined shape. Finished in special order ivory with a black leather interior, this wonderful low mileage example was delivered new to Holland, highly specified with the Continental T standard of trim. Over the years the Bentley has covered a very low mileage, with only c. 30,000 kilometres recorded from new, supported by a full book pack with the relevant documents. Your chance to own the fastest, most luxurious and most powerful Bentley of its day, and one of the nicest on offer anywhere.

1947 MG YA Saloon - One registered keeper from new Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: Y0879

Estimate: £2,000 - £4,000 No Reserve

MG’s first post-war saloon, the Y-Type employed the advanced features of a coil-spring independent front suspension and rack-and-pinion steering, both of which would later appear on the TD sports car. The Y-Type shared the contemporary TC sports car’s 1,250cc four-cylinder XPAG engine, albeit in single-carburetor form. MG, being part of the Nuffield Group, also made use of some body panels from the Morris Eight. Introduced for 1952, the YB incorporated a number of improvements including Lockheed twin-leading-shoe brakes, a stronger clutch, 15”-diameter wheels and a hypoid bevel rear axle, while modifications to the suspension curbed its tendency to oversteer. YB production ceased at the end of 1953, by which time 8300 examples of all versions of this charming small sports saloon had been made. Offered from the original owner, this delightful original example has come to the market from a deceased estate, having been dry stored for a number of years before being prepared for sale recently. The Y-Type is offered with a number of previous MOT certificates, older receipts for works completed, and also an older style vehicle registration document. Sold with no reserve to the highest bidder, this will prove no doubt to be a very rewarding project for the MG enthusiast.

The Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow was a luxury saloon car built from 1965 until 1980 and was the first Rolls-Royce to be constructed using a monocoque chassis and, to date, has the largest production volume of any Rolls-Royce. The original Shadow was 3½” narrower and shorter than the Silver Cloud which it replaced, but managed to offer increased passenger and luggage space thanks to more efficient packaging made possible by its construction. Aside from a more modern appearance and construction, the Silver Shadow introduced many new features such as disc brakes instead of drum brakes and independent rear suspension rather than the ageing live axle design of previous cars. The pre-1970 Shadow 1 featured a 172 bhp 6.2 Litre V8 coupled to the same 4-speed automatic gearbox as the Silver Cloud sourced from General Motors. The car’s most innovative feature was a high-pressure hydraulic system licensed from Citroen, with dual-circuit braking and hydraulic self-levelling suspension. At first, both the front and rear of the car were controlled by the levelling system; the front levelling was deleted in 1969 as it had been determined that the rear levelling did almost all the work. Rolls-Royce achieved a high degree of ride quality with this arrangement. A later Series 1 model, this wonderful original Silver Shadow was owned from new by a family based in Jersey in the Channel Islands. The Shadow is finished a rare colour scheme of Shell Grey Metallic with a lovely green leather interior, more often seen in the earlier Cloud models and not normally specified for the Shadow. Over the years the Rolls was serviced by main distributor St. Helier Garages, with a total of 17 dealer services being recorded in its lifetime. Due to bereavement the Shadow was stored carefully from 2006 to 2016, after which it was carefully recommissioned by specialist Walker and Balmforth Rolls-Royce and Bentley. Supplied with a MOT certificate valid to 2019, and in excellent condition in all respects, this is the nicest low mileage Silver Shadow we have seen for a long time.

1999 Ferrari F355 Spider Only ca. 20,000 miles from new Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: ZFFXR485X01162105

Estimate: £50,000 - £60,000

“Complex, sophisticated, and very fast, it is the quantum leap that has enabled the Ferrari V8 to run in proud parallel with the 456GT and 550 Maranello,” enthused Car magazine’s review of the F355. First presented to the motoring press in May 1994, the F355 effectively re-forged the reputation of Ferrari’s V8 which, 328 and 348 notwithstanding, had suffered since the introduction of the Mondial ‘world car’. The latter, with its four seats, well-appointed interior, and relatively soft ride, was considered far too sensible to be a ‘proper’ Ferrari; the F355 though, was cast in the mould of that great driver’s car, the Dino 246GT. Just how great an advance it was may be gauged from the fact that the F355’s best time around Ferrari’s Fiorano test track was three seconds quicker than the formidable 512 TR. Despite its prodigious performance the F355 was no mere ‘racer on the road’ but a thoroughly modern automobile. It employed state of the art technology, in the form of computer controlled variable damping to reconcile the differing requirements of ultimate roadholding and acceptable comfort. A light action clutch, proportional power-assisted steering, and driver’s air bag were other features included to make the car reassuringly user friendly. The heart of the F355 though, is its phenomenal 3.5-litre V8 engine. Equipped with four overhead camshafts and five valves per cylinder, a layout borrowed from Ferrari’s Formula 1 engine, this remarkable unit produced a claimed 370bhp at 8,250rpm, with 268lb/ft of torque available from 5,000 to 6,500rpm. A sixspeed gearbox, mounted transversely behind the longitudinally disposed engine, ensured a sufficiency of ratios to keep the motor on the boil whatever the situation. Finished in stunning Grigio Titanio with contrasting dark blue leather interior and hood, this F355 really stands out. This factory original car is unmolested and retains all the original features including the factory fitted radio and multi CD changer. With a mere 20,000 miles covered from new this car is presented in overall good to excellent condition and said to drive beautifully. The car is supplied with the original manuals, keys and fobs as well as a valid MOT and UK V5C. A fantastic opportunity to acquire an exceptionally clean and low mileage example of this 90’s classic.

1970 Plymouth Hemi Cuda - 9,200 miles from new Registration Number: EU Taxes Paid

Chassis Number: TBA

Estimate: £

Estimate: Refer Department

Options are a big part of what creates a car’s value in today’s collector market, but it is the correct combination of those components that can move a vehicle into ‘extraordinary’ territory. First and foremost of those choices is what ended up under the hood, and this car is a genuine Plymouth Hemi Cuda. This highly original example, built in 1969 on the latest E-Body platform, was registered to its first and only US owner in 1970. Delivered in two door hardtop coupe format, naturally the ‘Cuda was fitted with the 426cu “Hemi” under the hood, fed through dual four-barrel carburetors which helped deliver a very healthy 425 bhp to the rear wheels through a “four on the floor” manual transmission. Power was transmitted via a Track Pack 3.54 Sure Grip rear axle, whilst the suspension was uprated to Extra Heavy Duty to help keep all that power on the road. The interior was upgraded to High Trim specification, with a pair of vinyl bucket seats. The first and only US owner drove the car only 9,200 miles before it was taken off the road in 1976 and stored for c. 40 years until recently being discovered and offered for sale. An extremely well preserved example of one of the most collectible muscle-cars you can buy today.

1934 Ford Model 18 The only known surviving Right-Hand-Drive example Registration Number: EU Taxes Paid

Ford produced three cars between 1932 and 1934: the Model B, Model 18 & Model 40. These succeeded the Model A. The Model B continued to offer Ford’s proven four cylinder and was available from 1932 to 1934. The V8 (Model 18 in 1932, Model 40 in 1933 & 1934) was succeeded by the Model 48. It was the first Ford fitted with the flathead V‑8. In Europe, it was built slightly longer. The same bodies were available on both 4 cylinder Model Bs and V8 Model 18/40s. The company also replaced the Model AA truck with the Model BB, available with either the four- or eight-cylinder engine. As you might imagine the vast majority of this model were supplied to LHD markets and as such finding an original Right Hand Drive example is a rare treat. This example has had just two owners from new, and is one of only two RHD examples known to survive worldwide. A very rare car and not to be missed.

1966 Fiat 500 Jolly Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: 110 1202828

Estimate: £25,000 - £35,000

Born of FIAT boss Gianni Agnelli’s wish for open motorized transport from his massive yacht, the Agneta, during port stops along the Mediterranean coast, the finished car was dubbed ‘Jolly de Plage’, or Joker of the Beach. Based on the 500 and 600 models’ unitary construction, these agile compacts featured independent suspension, a four speed synchronized transmission, with the engine at the rear. The 479cc air-cooled twin was hardly a performer, but light construction (and mostly low-speed intended uses) made the package work well. The Jolly found favour as courtesy transport for patrons of luxury hotels and golf courses, such as Catalina Island off the coast of California, where a fleet of 32 Jollys provided taxi service or, as initially intended, for use ashore after one had docked one’s yacht on the Italian or French Riviera. Lacking doors and equipped with waterproof wickerwork seats, the Jolly was only practical as leisure transport, thus confirming its owner’s status as someone who could afford a car ‘just for fun’ (indeed, the Jolly was roughly twice the price of the base model it was derived from). Among the list of Jolly owners in the day are jet setters such as Aristotle Onassis, Yul Brynner, John Wayne, Grace Kelly, Henry Ford II, and even President Lyndon Johnson. The example we have on offer here left the factory in 1966 and has more recently come to the UK some 10 years ago. In the current vendors ownership, the car has resided in a storage facility with the intention of full restoration back to its former glory. Unfortunately, due to other work commitments the restoration was never carried out and the Jolly now comes to the open market with all the essential parts ready for restoration including the wicker seats and engine as well as the body and panels which both present in very good condition with little corrosion. The work done to this example has clearly been completed to a professional standard, and although there is no confirmation many features on this Jolly suggest it could have been converted by marquee specialists Ghia. Ready for restoration this simple project could be completed and ready to use in the coming summer months.

1974 Ford Escort RS2000 Mark I Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: TBA

Estimate: £30,000 - £35,000

The Escort RS2000 was the last car to be introduced to the AVO production range, in June of 1973. The car fitted nicely into the AVO line up with its performance almost comparable to the complex RS1600 but with the same reliability and ease of maintenance as the Mexico. It utilised the same type 49-body shell as the Mexico and RS1600. Fortunately, there was a new engine in use at Ford, the 2-litre overhead-cam Pinto, which Ford then decided to use for the new car, however, they then faced the problem of persuading the bulky Pinto engine to fit into the engine bay, which was something it had never been meant to do. The only way of achieving this was to discard the engine driven cooling fan and replace it with a thermostatically controlled Kenlowe unit. When finally nestled in place, the Pinto engine produced 100bhp (2bhp more than in the Cortina). This genuine AVO RS2000 was produced in late 1974 but registered on the road in the UK in April of 1975, finished in Sebring Red with lighter orange striping to its flanks. The RS2000 has been well restored to standard specification, with the correct alloy-sumped 2-litre motor, standard 4-speed gearbox with alloy bell housing and quick shift, and factory RS2000 interior fittings. This beautiful example is offered with a file full of bills and receipts going back many years and has been recently serviced (including cam belt); it is also supplied with a new MOT certificate. A great example of a true 1970’s classic.

1965 Mercedes-Benz 220SE One owner for the last 30 years – Rare Right-Hand Drive example Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: 11102122072859

Estimate: £18,000 - £24,000

Design of a replacement for the two-door Pontons began in 1957; as most of the chassis and drivetrain were to be unified with the sedan, the scope was focused on the exterior styling. Some of the mockups and prototypes show that MercedesBenz attempted to give the two-door car a front styling almost identical to what would be realised in the Pagoda roadster, but ultimately favoured the work of engineer Paul Bracq. The rear bodywork however, persisted, and thus though officially still called a fintail, the rear end design had no chrome fin highlights. Production began in late 1960, and in February of the next year the coupe was premiered in Stuttgart for the 75th anniversary of the opening of Mercedes-Benz Museum. Unlike the previous generation of two-door ponton series, there was only one model for the two-door vehicle, the 220SE on both versions, with the identical M127 2,195cc engine. Options included a sliding sunroof for the coupe, automatic transmission, power steering, and individual rear seats. Having in recent years been subject to an engine rebuild, this rare Matching Numbers Right-Hand drive 220SE is offered with an extensive history file containing a vast collection of invoices, MoT’s and main dealer service history, some of which dating back to 1965. Also included in this file is the cars original sales invoice confirming that the car not only retains its original matching-numbers engine but also its original colour combination! Sold new through Normand of Mayfair in January 1965, the car is still finished in its head-turning colour combination of Metallic Beige over black and beige leather interior, and quite remarkably this lovely example has had only two previous custodians from new. Benefitting from automatic transmission, these lovely cruisers are truly fantastic cars to drive and rarely does such a fine specification example come on the market.

Healey was well aware that he needed a car that could be built in larger numbers and sold at a lower price in the rapidly emerging sports car market in the new world. MG and Jaguar were selling the bulk of their production to North America and Triumph was readying the TR2. Using the four-cylinder 2.6 litre Austin A-90 engine and transmission, as well as other components from the parts bin of newly-formed BMC (a merger of the Austin and Nuffield/Morris companies), Healey produced a sleek and beautiful prototype styled by Gerry Coker. Healey showed his “Healey Hundred” at the 1952 Earls Court Motor Show in the UK and caught the eye of BMC supreme Leonard Lord. Again, Healey’s timing was perfect. Lord selected his car over a new MG prototype, thus delaying the replacement of the old-fashioned MG TD, which was also in the BMC family. When it went on sale in 1953, the beautiful Austin-Healey 100 cost less than $3,000 in the United States and would top 100mph. Those first cars, designated BN1, used the 90 bhp Austin engine, a three-speed transmission with overdrive and were happily received in the United States, which took most of the 10,688 cars produced. The beautiful BN1 Austin-Healey 100 on offer was built in March 1955 and was delivered through Dove Limited, Croydon London with a heater and wire wheels. The chain of ownership can be traced back to Mr Van Santen who owned the car in Middlesex from 1961 to 1970. The car changes hands twice in two years before a December 1973 Motorsport Magazine highlights the car for sale. Detailed letters dating January 1974 show correspondence between the new owner and the Healey owners Club. Correspondence in the cars file confirms it underwent a detailed restoration at this time. The car changed hands again in 1979 to 1989, where it was the property of Mr McIntyre ( A Director of the Royal Automobile Club) and formed part of the well regarded Sorn Castle Collection. In 1989 the car was sold to Mr Summers who owned the car until 1991. Denis Welch carried out an engine overhaul at this time. The car moves to Cumbria in 1992 where it remained the property of a Mr Coulthard until changing hands to the present keeper in 2000. In 2005 the car underwent its second restoration by Colin Groom of Newton Abbot, Devon. Details are in the file. Between 2002 and 2009 £30,000 was spent on a variety of works, both mechanical and to the body. With over £5,000 spent with Molesey Coach trimmers re-trimming the vehicle to a very high standard indeed. With its M specification upgrades, and larger radiator this car has been caressed by its fastidious owner to insure it has become an excellent example mechanically- performing as well in London traffic as it does on a country lane this well sorted example, with a large history file would be perfect for continental tours and events.

1971 Maserati Indy 4.7 America Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: AM116471136

Estimate: £50,000 - £70,000

‘We expected to find strong traces of a competition heritage in the first Maserati to be given a full Motor road test because the name of this Italian company is so closely bound up with the history of motor racing. Some traces of this sort are indeed part of the Indy 4.7 – notably its tremendous performance… To this can be added the note of restrained ferocity emitted by the exhaust pipes of the engine, an outstandingly smooth and quiet unit, yet a race-bred four-cam V8. There is a racing influence, too, in the taut neutrality of the responsive handling, as well as in the beauty of the body, which made the car a crowd-drawer wherever it stopped.’ – Motor. Maserati followed up its stunning, Ghia-styled Ghibli two-seater with the equally elegant Indy 2+2, though the latter, announced in 1968 and noteworthy as the first unitary construction Maserati, was the work of Carrozzeria Vignale. The Indy first appeared publicly on Vignale’s stand at the 1968 Turin Motor Show and was officially launched by Maserati at the Geneva Salon in 1969. Running gear was conventional, with independent front suspension, live rear axle and four-wheel disc brakes, while the power unit was – initially – the Modena firm’s well-tried, 4.1-litre, four-cam V8, with 4.7- and 4.9-litre versions following. With 260bhp on tap, the top speed of Maserati’s luxury four-seater was in the region of 240km/h, a figure the subsequent larger-engined versions improved upon. In 4.7-litre form the Indy’s claimed maximum increased to 292bhp, which was good enough for a top speed within a whisker of 250km/h, with 0-160km/h achievable in under 18 seconds. The sleek Vignale coachwork was such that the Maserati Indy was able to carry four people in relative comfort without impairing its performance as a sports car. Autocar magazine’s summary was one of almost unalloyed praise: ‘Classic touring car with V8 engine and 160mph potential. Beautifully smooth power unit, silky gearbox and light, power assisted steering. Good brakes, balanced handling, comfortable ride, superb stability. High price but few disappointments.’ This wonderful UK delivered, right hand drive Indy underwent an extensive mechanical and cosmetic restoration during 2014/2016. Showing approximately 50,000 miles on the odometer and having been stored in a private garage during its current ownership, this Indy presents in very good condition throughout. Equal of the contemporary Ferrari 365GT 2+2 in both looks and performance, the Maserati Indy remains relatively under appreciated. Elegant yet practical, it is a thoroughbred Grand Routier representing outstanding value for money. Presented with current MOT and UK V5C.

1992 Porsche 964 Carrera 2 Turbo Body Cabriolet Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: WPOZZZ96ZN5451208

Estimate: £35,000 - £45,000

The Porsche 964 is the company’s internal name for the Porsche 911 manufactured and sold between 1989 and 1994. Designed by Benjamin Dimson through January 1986, it featured significant styling revisions over previous 911 models, most prominently the more integrated bumpers. It was the first generation 911 to be offered with Porsche’s optional Tiptronic automatic transmission and allwheel drive as options. The 964 was considered to be 85% new as compared to its predecessor, the Carrera 3.2. The first 964s available in 1989 were all-wheel drive equipped “Carrera 4” models; Porsche added the rear wheel drive Carrera 2 variant to the range in 1990. Both variants were available as a coupe, Targa or Cabriolet. A new naturally aspirated engine called the M64 was used for 964 models, with a flat-6 displacement of 3.6 litres. Porsche substantially revised the suspension, replacing torsion bars with coil springs and shock absorbers. Power steering and ABS brakes were added to the 911 for the first time; both were standard. The exterior bumpers and fog lamps became flush with the car for better aerodynamics. A new electric rear spoiler raised at speeds above 50 mph (80 km/h) and lowered down flush with the rear engine lid at lower speeds or at rest. Performance was brisk to say the least, with a top speed of 261 km/h. The example on offer is a rare turbo bodied model of which just 1200 were produced worldwide. Presented in its original colour combination and in very good all-round condition the 964 is offered with a comprehensive history file including a full-service history from Porsche specialists which is documented in the Porsche service booklet. Showing a mere C.54,000 miles on the odometer the car is ready to be used.

Chassis Number: P2 4009

Estimate: £40,000 - £45,000

The company built only ten P2 Safari station wagons, with this being one of only four remaining.. Chassis number ‘4009’ was sold by Tom Lush to two elderly sisters in Birmingham whose prime concern was that there should be sufficient room in the back for a sheep or goat. Anecdotally, ownership moved on via a lady near Shrewsbury in 1958 to a Lawrence Keating of Manchester around 1973, from whom the car was acquired in 1988. The P2 has enjoyed an older ‘chassis up’ restoration by the Tamar Valley Motoring Centre, the engine and gearbox being rebuilt by Wally Wheatley of Nordian Garages, considered at the time to be an authority on ‘flat head’ Ford engines, while the woodwork was painstakingly restored by a highly talented retired schoolmaster. The brown Connolly hide was also restored and we understand is in lovely condition, with a most attractive patina. More recently the bodywork has enjoyed a refresh which included the renewal of woodwork where required. New radial tyres have also more recently been fitted, as have rear shock absorbers, both contributing to an immensely improved ride. Since restoration the P2 has taken part in many events such as the 40th Anniversary Sydney Allard Monte Carlo Rally, the Randonnée de Trios Vallées and several other classic events in the UK and abroad. The car has benefitted from an engine rebuild with a reground crank and replacement main and big end bearings. Supplied with an extensive restoration and maintenance file, original correspondence with Tom Lush, old-style logbook and current V5, this is a truly lovely example of a very special and well known car.

Estimate: £45,000 - £55,000

Introduced at the Paris Auto Salon in 1975, the contemporary styled 308 GTB – Ferrari’s second V8 road car – marked a return to Pininfarina styling following the Bertone-designed 308 GT4. Badged as a ‘proper’ Ferrari rather than a Dino, the 308 GTB had changed little mechanically apart from a reduction in both wheelbase and weight, retaining its predecessor’s underpinnings and transversely mounted engine that now featured dry-sump lubrication. In road tune this superbly engineered power unit produced 255bhp, an out-put good enough to propel the 308 GTB to a top speed of over 150mph. Produced initially with fiberglass bodywork – the first time this material had been used for a production Ferrari, the Scaglietti-built 308 GTB used steel after April 1977. Further developments included the introduction of an open-top GTS version with Targa-style removable roof, the adoption of Bosch K-Jetronic fuel injection and, finally, revised cylinder heads with four valves per cylinder on the Quattrovalvole (QV) model in 1982. An exhilarating driver’s car and a Ferrari purist’s delight, the 308 GTSi and its many derivatives proved a huge commercial success for Maranello, with over 12,000 sold. This wonderful example presented in the classic Ferrari colour combination of Rosso Corsa with sumptuous tan leather interior has clearly led a pampered life. Having covered approximately 50,000 miles from new, with a good history file to support it, the car is complete with factory fitted air conditioning and 16” wheels. Offered with the original manuals, tool kit, targa cover and jack; there is also a clean MOT certificate and UK V5C. A lovely GTSi that is said to drive beautifully and is ready to be enjoyed by a lucky new custodian.

1967 Lamborghini Miura SV Specification Registration Number: TBA

Chassis Number: TBA

Estimate: Refer Department

The first “supercar” from Lamborghini, and perhaps the first supercar the world had ever seen, was the P400 Miura. When it was first unveiled at the 1966 Geneva Salon, its impact was nothing short of extraordinary. Simply stated, the Miura looked like no other on the road, and it marked a paradigm shift in the design of high-performance cars. Its sensuous lines were undoubtedly indebted to the placement of its engine, which was mounted transversely, just behind the passenger compartment. The Miura’s performance also matched its looks, and the car would go on to be the poster child for a petrol-fueled generation. As such, Miuras could often be found in the garages of many of the most fashionable celebrities of the day, including Miles Davis, Rod Stewart, and Frank Sinatra. Marcello Gandini penned the gorgeous design at the age of 27, and it encapsulated the youthful spirit of the age. The car was beautifully styled throughout and had intricate details that always brought a smile to the driver’s face when interacting with the car, such as the shape of the doors, which were supposedly modeled off of the horns of a raging bull. To many, it boasted the perfect automotive silhouette, as it was just as sensual as

it was muscular. The final iteration of the Miura, the SV, featured numerous improvements over the already spectacular P400 S that came before it. The SV featured better handling, thanks to revised suspension, which helped to remove the “front-end lightness” that was so characteristic of the earlier cars; in turn, the rear bodywork was made slightly wider. Perhaps the most notable changes were to the engine, which featured larger carburetors and different cam-timing, as they made the SV much more user-friendly at lower rpms. With its engine producing 385bhp, the SV boasted incredible performance. A sprint to 60mph from a standstill took just 5.8 seconds and its top speed was quoted at 180mph. This beautiful example, an early production model, was despatched new in P400 specification to Oporto, Portugal on 14th

September 1967, and sold via the Lamborghini dealer Vecar. After one year ownership it passed to the second keeper, who owned the car for a further 7 years until 1975. In 1974, shortly after the ultimate ‘SV’ model had been launched, our Miura was returned to Lamborghini’s Sant’Agata factory to become one of very few examples upgraded to full ‘SV’ specification by the works in period. The work included rebuilding the motor, the front and rear chassis sections, brake systems (including brake cooling ducts) and suspension to ‘SV’ specification. Nine-inch wide rear wheels were mounted under a wider ‘SV’ rear body (stamped with nº 750 which was originally fitted to SV5100, the donor to the ‘SVJ’ produced at the factory for a Mr. Lansberg). Upon completion the Miura was sold within the family before being acquired by the next owner in the mid 1980s, who kept the car for a further 26 years. In 2008 chassis ‘3132’ enjoyed a highly comprehensive restoration, after which it was enjoyed on the road for a further four years before being sold by Coys at auction at our London True Greats Sale in 2012. In current ownership our vendor has prepared this beautiful Miura meticulously, with invoices from a marque specialist exceeding €50,000 to support various mechanical works. The Miura is supplied with its original Portuguese Livrete, correspondence and invoices from Lamborghini confirming all works carried out at Santa’Agata in 1974, further invoices for recent refurbishment and maintenance works, a letter of conformity and UK V5C document. Refinished extremely well in Arancio Orange, this is a beautiful example of one of the ultimate versions of Lamborghini’s groundbreaking supercars.

2001 Ferrari 360 Berlinetta Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: TBA

Estimate: £60,000 - £65,000

Ferrari’s most successful model since the 308, the F355 was always going to be a tough act to follow. Its successor needed to be ground breaking and revolutionary; two words which, without doubt the 360 lived up to. Starting with a clean sheet of paper in designing the 360 Modena, the new car attracted superlatives that put even its illustrious predecessor in the shade. Just about the only item carried over from the F355 was its glorious V8 engine, enlarged from 3.5 to 3.6 litres for the 360, producing 400bhp. In every other respect the 360 was entirely new, the most striking break with Ferrari tradition being the body’s frontal treatment; gone was the omnipresent oval grille, replaced by two separate intakes set low into the front wings. A larger car than the F355, the 360 owed its radical new shape to the quest for increased downforce, generating four times as much as its predecessor yet achieving the impressively low Cd of 0.33. There was further innovation beneath the skin: a lighter, stiffer aluminium spaceframe monocoque replacing the old tubular steel arrangement, resulting in a dry weight around 220lbs less than that of the F355. The 360’s on-the-road dynamics constituted a significant advance, its best time around Ferrari’s Fiorano test track being some three seconds faster than the F355’s. This lovely UK-delivered 360, finished in Silverstone Blue with Crema Leather interior, is offered with Full Service History containing 15 stamps from the authorised Ferrari Dealer Network. Showing 35,000 miles recorded from new, the Ferrari is said to drive and perform extremely well, and indeed also presents very nicely. As a modern classic to use and enjoy every day this is a wonderful proposition.

Intended primarily for racing, though still road legal, the Porsche 911 GT3 – first introduced in 1999 – can trace its ancestry all the way back through a succession of high-performance models to the legendary 911 Carrera RS of 1973. The car takes its name from the FIA’s GT3 category of production sports car racing, and has been produced in a variety of versions since its introduction in 1999 on the Type 996 iteration of the perennial 911. Following the launch of the original Type 996 GT3, Porsche introduced an even more track-focused variant in 2003: the GT3 RS. Standing for RennSport (literally ‘race sport’), the ‘RS’ designation referenced that iconic first-of-the-line model of 40 years previously. In GT3 RS specification, the 3.6-litre flat-six ‘Metzger’ engine was up-rated, producing around 400bhp, although the claimed output remained unchanged at 318bhp for homologation purposes. The RS was lighter than the ‘ordinary’ GT3, weight saving measures including a polycarbonate rear window, and carbon-fibre bonnet and rear wing, while the stock cast-iron brake discs were replaced with ceramic composite rotors for greater fade resistance under competition conditions. RS suspension was adjustable, and the car ran some 3mm lower than the stock GT3. For 2006 the GT3 was extensively redesigned and improved on the Type 997 platform. New features included ‘zero lift’ aerodynamics and Porsche’s PASM electronically adjustable active suspension system, specially configured for track use. Porsche claimed a 0-60mph time of 4.1 seconds and a top speed of 193km/h for the new GT3. By the end of the year there was also an RS ‘homologation special’. Weight-saving measures similar to those seen on the Type 996 RS were applied, while the body was wider than that of the Type 997 GT3, accommodating an increase in rear track. This rare high-performance 911 variant has had only two previous owners from new and comes provided with full Porsche dealer service history. Described to be in good condition throughout, this fastidiously maintained, incredibly powerful and fun, yet usable road car is ready to be enjoyed by its next owner.

1998 Ferrari F355 Berlinetta Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: TBC

Estimate: £60,000 - £80,000

The Ferrari F355 is a modern classic, so beautiful, so well-engineered and so well received that it marked the beginning of the end of the old-guard ‘Ferraristi’ philosophy that the only “real” Ferraris were ones with 12-cylinder engines. The Ferrari F355 Berlinetta and Targa GTS burst onto the world stage in the spring of 1994. It had almost exactly the same dimensions as its predecessor the 348, yet it was virtually a new car, as its stunning coachwork indicated. Many hours of wind tunnel testing influenced the harmonious shape which incorporated an F1 style flat bottom with an air flow channel that generated enough down-force to offset any lift. The longitudinally mounted 3496cc V8 had a stunning 380 horsepower at a spine tingling 8250 rpm. The gearbox now had six speeds with a new type of synchromesh that made it much easier to shift. New electronically adjustable shock absorbers varied their stiffness within milliseconds to suit the road surface. Around Ferrari’s 1.86 mile Fiorano test track the 355 was two seconds a lap faster than the 12 cylinder 512 TR; that level of performance combined with its sensational shape made it a worldwide success story. This wonderful example is presented in Rosso Corsa with a tan leather interior and shows a mere 39,290 miles on the odometer. Delivered new to the UK the Right hand drive F355 with F1 style ‘paddle’ gearbox is offered with a documented history file including much maintenance work as well as many service records from both Ferrari main dealer and specialists. The most recent service work being completed at marquee specialists DK Engineering on the 18th June 2018 where a full annual service and cambelt service was completed. A wonderfully presented modern classic that is ready for a new custodian. Offered with an Mot until 18/06/19 a UK Registration document and a comprehensive history file.

1964 Ford Thunderbird Former property of John Entwistle of The Who Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: TBA

Estimate: £30,000 - £35,000

By the time Ford dispensed (at least temporarily) with the Thunderbird moniker in 2005, the model had progressed through no less than 11 generations, the combined production total of which was in excess of 4.4 million. It had also been immortalised by the Beach Boys’ hit song “Fun Fun Fun”. The first generation cars hit the streets in October 1954 and, while it was created in direct response to Chevrolet’s Corvette, Ford’s emphasis was more on comfort than overt sportiness. Though sleeker than most of its Ford siblings, it shared many of their components and the 292ci (4.8-litre) V8 engine was borrowed from the company’s Mercury division. By the time the fourth generation appeared in 1964, the T-Bird was an altogether larger proposition, with four rather than two seats and power from a 6.4-litre V8 of either 300bhp or 330bhp, mated to a three-speed automatic gearbox. The styling reflected the trend for twin headlamps and by 1965 disc brakes had become standard fare for the front wheels. There was a choice of Coupé, Convertible or Landau body styles, each equally imposing in their own way. In a music career that spanned more than 40 years, John Entwistle was best known as the original bass guitarist for the English rock band The Who. He was the only member of the band to have formal musical training, and was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1990. In 2011, he was voted as the greatest bass guitarist of all time in a Rolling Stone magazine reader’s poll, and in its special “100 Greatest Bass Players” issue in 2017, Bass Player Magazine named Entwistle at number seven. Entwistle is considered to have done for the bass what Jimi Hendrix did for the guitar. As befits any true rock star of the 1960’s and 70’s, Entwhistle also loved cars, with a special penchant for the products of Rolls-Royce, and American classics of the 1950’s and 60’s. Coys are delighted to have had the pleasure of selling his very own Ford Thunderbird in the past, and we are delighted to have the opportunity once more. This lovely original unmolested Thunderbird was specified from new with the 390ci V8 engine, known as the ‘Jetbird’. The T-Bird was optioned with the desirable continental kit, comprising of spare wheel on the rear bumper, chrome luggage rack, Kelsey Hayes wheels and signpost lights. Also fitted are automatic transmission, power windows, power seats, power hood with power deck, air conditioning and rear spats. An American motoring icon once owned by a British rock icon, what could possibly be better?

1974 Volkswagen T2 Bay Window Camper Van Devonette Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: TBC

Estimate: £12,000 - £16,000

This rare Devonette Bay Window camper was originally registered in 1974 in the and remained with its first owner right up until 1989. Today it is a rarity, as not only is it an original UK market Right Hand Drive vehicle, it is what is known in VW circles as a ‘cross over’ model, so has the earlier and more appealing ‘low light’ front with indicators mounted down near the front bumper as opposed to having them up towards the windscreen. The main benefits of this model are that it came equipped from the VW Hanover factory with front disc brakes and the modern steering system. In terms of condition there are very few examples which come close in terms of originality, it is quite simply in wonderful condition. A renovated engine was fitted in the 1990s and further restoration work was completed in 2010. Part of a private collection and having resided in the current vendors ownership for some time the camper has been used for various trips around the UK. The body and interior and mechanics are all in good order. Having completed little mileage since the restoration the VW still presents very well. The engine is strong and the body is straight with no signs of rust unlike many of its contemporaries the majority of this vehicle had not suffered from rust. Included in the comprehensive history file is a dating certificate as well as many pictures of the restoration. A wonderful example that can be used for many summer events.

1976 Audi 50 Registration Number: EU Registered

Chassis Number: 8661539730

Estimate: £5,000 - £7,000

The Audi 50 was built by Audi NSU Auto Union AG at the former NSU factory in Neckarsulm, Germany and at the giant Wolfsburg plant by Volkswagen.[4] The car was rebadged six weeks later by Volkswagen as the Volkswagen Polo with a wider range of engine and other options. The Volkswagen Polo was launched in the home market in September 1974 and appeared in export markets, including the United Kingdom, a few months later. The car was offered as a three door hatchback with a 1,093 cc petrol engine, producing either 50 bhp) or 59 bhp for the LS and GL models, respectively. The model was popular in Europe, both because of its generous specifications for a car of the time, and on account of its relatively low price. The Volkswagen and Audi badged models were sold alongside each other for three years until 1978, but the cheaper Volkswagen Polo outsold the Audi 50. Having had only one previous owner from new, this rare and wonderful specimen was driven back from Italy by the vendor himself. With only four examples currently on the roads in the UK, this represents a great opportunity to purchase an iconic, yet largely unknown Audi.

1970 Fiat 500L Registration Number: UK Registered

Chassis Number: 110F2988571

Estimate: £4,000 - £6,000

Replacement for FIAT’s much-loved 500 ‘Topolino’, the Nuova 500 debuted in 1957. A radical departure from its predecessor’s essentially pre-war design, FIAT’s new baby featured unitary construction, an opening fabric roof and all-independent suspension while carrying its engine at the rear. Introduced in 1968 alongside the standard 500F, the deluxe 500L, while mechanically identical, came with exterior cosmetic enhancements and an improved interior featuring new instrument panel, seats and floor covering. An immense success for FIAT, almost 3,000,000 of these adorable little cars had been sold when production ceased in 1975. The original FIAT 500 remains as popular today as it ever was, and recently was voted ‘Sexiest Car’ by the readers of Top Gear magazine. This left-hand drive example of the FIAT 500 in its ultimate form was bought at a charity auction in the UK in October 2014 having been restored prior to its previous vendor’s purchase. Presented in good running order, this charming and highly collectible little car is ready to be enjoyed by its next custodian.
