• One of only 26, right-hand drive, manual gearbox, Mondial ‘T’ Cabriolets • Superb, end of the line, transverse-engined, 3.4-litre T • Classically finished in Rosso over Crema. With its current owner for 20 years • Excellent service history. Recent 50,000-mile service at Lancaster Ferrari • New belts, air-con service/gas charge and comprehensive check over • MOT February 2020. The cherished number, EOX 8, will remain with the car Launched at the 1980 Geneva Auto Salon, the Mondial was the first Ferrari to depart from the company’s familiar threedigit naming scheme and its name was inspired by their famous Mondial sports-racers from the fifties. 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 and hopefully attracting a slightly wider audience than their traditionally more focused two-seaters. The car was not built as a monocoque in a conventional way, 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. Introduced in 1989, the Ferrari Mondial 3.4 T was the ‘spearhead for a new generation of V8 Ferraris’ and the final version of the Mondial. The ‘T’ was a reference to the new engine and transmission layout that now saw the engine mounted longitudinally with the gearbox transverse (forming a T), a characteristic of their Formula 1 ‘312T’ which had just won the 1989 World Championship. This set-up would become the standard for all future mid-engined V8 Ferraris beginning with the 348 and continuing through to the 360. This is a superb original UK, right-hand drive, 3.4-litre, Mondial ‘T’ Cabriolet supplied new to its first owner by
26
Ferrari and Porsche Sale 2019
Lancaster Ferrari on the 12th of April 1990. 1,010 Mondial T Cabriolets were built altogether with only 51 in right-hand drive and 26 with a manual gearbox, making this example very rare indeed. Fitted with the desirable manual gearbox and finished in the classic colour combination of Rosso Corsa with Crema leather and a black hood, this lovely example has covered just 45,077 miles and has been in our vendor’s care for the last 20 years. A recent 50,000 miles main dealer service at Lancaster Ferrari (Colchester) during February/March 2019 included cambelt replacement, renewed fuel lines, a full air-con service and a comprehensive check over and our vendor has covered very few miles since. The MOT is valid until February 2020 and, pleasingly, the cherished registration number ‘EOX 8’ will remain with the car. It’s presented with its original wallet, manuals and stamped service book, old MOTs and supporting detailed invoices covering servicing and cam belt changes etc. With power-assisted steering as standard and a simple-tooperate folding top, Mondials of this era are quite easy to live with and this lovely example with a recent main dealer belt service and crisp air-con from long-term ownership is a very attractive prospect. With values of these comfortable and approachable Ferraris hardening over recent years, this represents an excellent opportunity to enjoy top-down Ferrari motoring on a very sensible budget

• Original right-hand drive delivered to UK importer Maranello Concessionaries in 1977 for Hong Kong dealer Italian Motors • Specified with Rosso Chiaro paintwork, Testa di Moro leather and Corda carpets, air conditioning and wider wheels • Benefitting from recent expenditure to the sum of £20,000 including engine rebuild, suspension and braking system overhaul • Presenting well in a timeless colour combination and offered with a full MOT and a history folder thick with invoices
recent attention should require nothing more than regular exercise from its new owner. Offered with an MOT valid until 19 May 2020, a comprehensive history folder including MOTs dating back to 1998, import documents, spare keys and of course supporting documentation for the recent engine build dated June 2018. Today this Ferrari 308 represents a usable classic sports car with beautiful styling and sparkling performance offering an exciting ownership experience. It’s been guided very sensibly so, if you have ever had an itch for a classic V8 Ferrari, now may be the time for a little scratch.
The 308 GTB was launched at the Paris Motor Show in 1975 as a direct replacement for the Dino 246 GT. Designed by Pininfarina with sweeping curves and aggressive lines, the 308 has gone on to become one of the most recognised Ferraris of all time. Fitted with a 2.9 litre DOHC V8 engine fed by four Webber 40DCNF Carburettors, the power output of 255bhp was sufficient to propel the 308 from 0 to 60mph in 6.5 seconds and on to a top speed of 159 mph. In 1980, the decision was taken to replace the carburettors with fuel injection, unfortunately reducing the engine output from 255 to 214 bhp, meaning that the earlier carburettor cars, like this one, are significantly quicker. The 308 was manufactured in both GTB and GTS (Spider) forms from 1977 to 1985, before being replaced by the 328. In hindsight, connoisseurs of Ferrari from this era consider the version to have is a steel -bodied car with a dry sump and carburettors, which is exactly what we have on offer here. This lovely 308 was manufactured in 1977 and delivered to UK importer Maranello Concessionaries in the same year for Hong Kong dealer Italian Motors, specified in right-hand drive with Rosso Chiaro (red) paintwork. Imported into the UK in 1998, our enthusiast vendor purchased this example in 2017 and set about a thorough schedule of works to bring it back to its best. Invoices found within the history folder outline a mechanical overhaul including an engine rebuild entrusted to a highly regarded marque specialist. The suspension, braking system and major electrical components were also replaced or reconditioned. The seats were professionally retrimmed in cream hide and a quick tally up of the invoices reveals an investment amounting to over £20,000. Showing just over 36,000 miles, this particular 308 GTB presents very well and having had such + buyer’s premium of 15% including VAT @ 20%

• 48-valve, 5.5-litre V12 developing 485bhp at 7,000rpm and a 6-speed manual gearbox • With just 24,000 miles, three owners, specified in a stunning and desirable special order colour • Most recently serviced in April 2019. New wheels and tyres • Stamped service book contained in the original leather wallet • Firmly placed in Ferrari’s history as one of their finest modern-era GTs When Luca di Montezemolo took office in 1991, a twoseat, front-engined V-12 Coupé had been absent from the company’s line-up since the 365 GTB/4 Daytona and so the decision was taken to revive the format as a replacement for Ferraris mid-engine, flat-12 models. After 30 months of development, the Ferrari 550 Maranello was presented in July 1996 at the Nürburgring circuit in Germany and is now firmly placed in Ferrari’s history as one of their finest modern-era big GTs. Styled by Pininfarina, like its illustrious predecessor, the 550 Maranello was similarly proportioned, adopting the classical combination of long bonnet, small cabin and a truncated tail. Classic Ferrari styling cues include a bonnet air scoop and hot air outlets behind the front wheel-arches recalling the great ‘Competizione’ Ferraris of the past, whilst the rear incorporates Ferrari’s characteristic twin circular lights. The heart of any Ferrari is its engine, and the 550 Maranello’s 48-valve, 5.5-litre V12 develops 485bhp at 7,000rpm. The powertrain was housed in a tubular steel chassis, clothed in achingly beautiful aluminium coachwork, whilst the all-independent suspension incorporated dual-mode (normal/sports) damping, switchselectable by the driver, which was complemented by speedsensitive power-assisted steering. The six-speed manual gearbox made possible a slightly more even torque curve ensuring that the power delivery was a little less frenetic, whilst excellent weight distribution and delightful road manners make the 550 Maranello a truly refined driving machine, whilst still capable of almost 200 mph. With styling that is ageing particularly well, a high-quality cabin, generous storage and an enormous 100-litre-plus fuel tank, the 550 Maranello really is the consummate ‘European Grand Tourer’ in the true Ferrari mould. In 2004, EVO magazine published a ‘Greatest Driver’s Cars’ feature that set the 550 Maranello against the Porsche 911 GT3, Honda NSX-R and Pagani Zonda C12S. The Ferrari won. EVO stated “As with all great cars, there’s no one facet that dominates

the experience. Yes, the engine is mighty, but the chassis is its equal. There’s never been a supercar that’s so exploitable and so rounded in its capabilities.” This lovely, left-hand drive 550 Maranello dates from 2000 and is finished in the stunning and desirable special order colour of Blue Pozzi with a Nero hide interior featuring Daytona seats. Having been enjoyed by only three owners who have covered just 39,028km (24,392 miles), the car is in sparkling condition sporting new wheels, brand new tyres and an aftermarket sports exhaust system. Accompanying the car is its service book stamped by Ferrari main dealer and Ferrari specialists, and kept in the original leather wallet. At 37,000 km, in 2017, it had a major service at QV in Egham including cam belts and engine mounts and was most recently serviced in March 2019. The 550 has been much hailed as a potential future classic, occupying a unique space where old-world Ferrari V12s meets the new. Now that values have settled it really is a must-have model for any serious Ferrari enthusiast and this fabulous low-mileage example in such a rare colour warrants serious consideration.

This resulted in 0-60mph in 5.5 seconds and a top speed of over 166mph. This, stunning, right-hand drive, late-production example, is one of just 292 UK-supplied ABS-equipped cars and is finished in the classic combination of Rosso Corsa with Crema hide and red carpeting. Just 17,000 miles is all this lovely 328 has covered since leaving the factory in 1989 and it really needs to be seen in the metal given the car’s stunning condition today. Indeed, interested parties should note that this car is currently been stored with Silverstone Auctions and is therefore available for private viewing by appointment prior to the sale. ‘F328 VSD’ is accompanied by its owner’s manuals, tool kit and an interesting history file containing invoices from Ferrari dealers and specialists along with historic MOTs and road tax discs. Coming from a significant private collection, this is a rare and low mileage example that will reward any inspection and is estimated at a very competitive level considering the quality on offer.

• UK-supplied in right-hand drive by Maranello Concessionaires • The subject of considerable expense and now simply outstanding • Only 25,880 miles with a full service history • Recently serviced with a fresh MOT • Original handbook pack, spare keys and tool kit Inheriting the proportions of its predecessor, the F355 was outwardly a much better-resolved proposition, both aesthetically and aerodynamically. However, beneath the fabulous styling and smoother skin, were further major advancements, including power steering, variable damping, and a 100cc engine enlargement. The longitudinally mounted 3496cc V8 generated a market-leading 380 horsepower at a spine-tingling 8,250 rpm and the gearbox now had six speeds with a revised synchromesh making gear changes so much smoother. New electronically adjustable shock absorbers varied their stiffness within milliseconds to suit the road surface and the result of all these developments was evident around Ferrari’s 1.86 mile Fiorano test track when the 355 was two seconds a lap faster than the 12-cylinder 512 TR. The F355 Spider (most of us like Italian convertibles to be called Spyder, however, Ferrari have always insisted on Spider) debuted in 1995, its Pininfarina-penned lines honed by even more hours in the wind tunnel. To make up for the lack of a roof and the associated loss of torsional rigidity, the 355’s structure was cleverly strengthened without making the Spider any heavier than the Berlinetta. Pininfarina is very experienced in designing convertible roofs for other manufacturers and their efforts here have resulted in a blend of elegant style and aerodynamic performance and, for the first time in a Ferrari, the semi-automatic softtop was powered electronically. Initially, the Spider was fitted with the 6-speed manual transmission, prior to being offered with the innovative, electro-hydraulic F1 transmission, however, over time, it’s become accepted that the manual box is that much more satisfying to use and that has tended to be reflected in the car’s value. Sitting on the cusp between analogue and digital, the 355 is considered the forerunner of all modern Ferraris and, as the last of the hand-built cars before the 360 and later descendants moved to mass production, will inevitably

slip into the role of ‘Classic Ferrari’ with ease becoming increasingly sought after as time goes by. This lovely, right-hand drive, manual gearbox F355 Spider finished in Giallo Fly was supplied new by Maranello Concessionaires to its first owner, a Mr Randall, in early May 1997. After a period off the road in dry storage between 2014 and 2017, our vendor commenced a program of refurbishment with the intention of returning the car to a pristine, factory-fresh look and in this, he has undoubtedly succeeded. The car was fully stripped and treated to a glass-out repaint in its original colour to a superb standard. Whilst this was being carried out, the engine and gearbox were fitted with new oil seals and gaskets, the cambelts replaced, and all fully detailed before being refitted. The subframes and wishbones were removed and refinished, the radiators rebuilt, the wheels refurbed, new body undertrays were sourced, new headlamps fitted, and the braking system was fully refreshed with new discs, pads and handbrake shoes. Most ancillary components were replaced or returned to original factory condition and throughout the rebuild, the correct fasteners, screws and nuts were used to emphasise the original factory look. The car has still only covered 26,000 miles and is accompanied by its roof cover in the original storage sleeve, the full key set, leather handbook wallet, original tool kit, a fully stamped service book and a history file containing invoices for thousands of pounds for parts and labour relating to the refurbishment. It will be freshly serviced prior to the sale. Manual gearbox, UK-supplied, yellow 355s are rare, particularly in this amazing condition, and this lovely example will reward close inspection.

• A stunning UK right-hand drive 599 GTB Fiorano in Nero Daytona Metalic with Rosso leather • 26,000 miles, full Ferrari history. Graypaul serviced no less than ten times! • Impressive specification and superb condition throughout • With its 6.0-litre V12, the 599 is capable of 0-62mph in an incredible 3.7 seconds The 599 replaced the 575 in the summer of 2006 and brought the front-engined V12 Ferrari slap bang into the modern age. Whereas the 550 and 575, even at their introduction, always felt like modern classics, the 599 was every inch a new-age Ferrari: all-aluminium chassis, lashings of glossy carbon fibre, F1 SuperFast gearbox, F1-Trac stability and traction control, magnetic semi-active dampers and carbon-ceramic brakes, all wrapped in aggressive, aero-optimised bodywork with minimal overhangs and maximum presence. Top billing, though, went to the engine - a lightly modified version of the Enzo’s 6-litre V12 with a mighty 611bhp at 7600rpm, endowing Ferrari’s new seriesproduction flagship with truly sensational performance: 0-60 in 3.5sec, 0-100 in 7.4 and 205mph. This, fabulous 599 GTB Fiorano is a 2007 UK-supplied, right-hand drive example that is finished in striking Nero Daytona Metallic with Rosso leather and has covered just 26,000 miles from new in the care of its two former keepers. The specification of this particular 599 is impressive as it’s fitted with the optional 20 inch, ‘Monlithic’-twin-spoke alloys, carbon-ceramic brakes with brake calipers in yellow, front and rear parking sensors and electric, heated carbon fibre Daytona seats. This 599 also benefits from the ‘Carbon fibre driving zone’ which consists of a carbon fibre steering wheel along with carbon fibre paddle-shifts and tachometer ring. It also has the optional rev counter in yellow with a BOSE surround-sound system with iPod and Bluetooth connectivity. Looking at the condition of this example it has clearly been cherished throughout its life. Indeed, it’s been serviced by Graypaul Ferrari no less than 10 times, with the most recent being at Meridien Moderna in July 2018. This is an outstanding and sensibly priced 599 which would make a great entry into the amazing world of front-engined, V-12, two-seater sports cars.

• Finished in Blue Le Mans with Grigio Chiaro leather and a desirable 6-speed manual gearbox • UK-supplied in right-hand drive and showing 42,425 miles on the odometer • Serviced at Ferrari main dealers, most recently a full cambelt service at Meridien Modena • Supplied with a UK V5c and MOT tested until 29th August 2020 The Ferrari F355 is now considered 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 F355 Berlinetta burst onto the world stage in the Spring of 1994, with the Targa GTS and Spider following in 1995. The new car shared almost exactly the same dimensions as its predecessor, the 348, yet it was virtually a new car, as its flowing coachwork indicated. Many hours of wind tunnel testing influenced the harmonious shape which incorporated an F1-style flat bottom with channelled airflow generating enough downforce to offset any lift. The F355’s name is derived from its 3.5-litre V8 engine and five valves per cylinder - as denoted by the ‘Cinquevalvole’ inscription on the rocker covers, and this longitudinallymounted power unit generates an impressive 374bhp at a spine-tingling 8250rpm. The con-rods are titanium alloy, the clutch is housed in magnesium alloy, and the Bilstein shock absorbers use electronic sensors to provide active damping. In 1994, the Ferrari F355 was a technological tour-de-force. Around Ferrari’s 1.86 mile Fiorano test track, the F355 was two seconds a lap faster than the 12-cylinder, 512 TR and that level of performance, combined with its sensational shape, ensured its success on the world stage. This particular example is a UK-supplied, right-hand drive 1997 Ferrari F355 GTS, first delivered to a Mr P. Smyth of Enfield. Finished in Blue Le Mans with a Grigio Chiaro leather interior, it’s fitted with the more desirable six-speed manual gearbox.

The Targa-topped GTS is often regarded as one of the most beautiful F355s that Ferrari produced, and when combined with a manual gearbox, super colour and a sensible estimate, this is a very attractive proposition.

• First registered on the 3rd August 1972 as one of just 158 UK-supplied, right-hand drive Daytonas • Owned between 1973 and 1975 by Sir Elton John and believed bought from the proceeds of ‘Goodbye Yellow Brick Road’ • Copies of the original build sheet, order forms, delivery correspondence and every service receipt from new are present • Also included is every MOT certificate corroborating the indicated mileage of some 82,000 • The interior was re-trimmed in factory-specification Black VM8500 Connolly Vaumol hide in 2017 • This matching-numbers Daytona is among the finest we have ever seen and is competitively guided Two years after Lamborghini debuted the mid-engined Miura in 1966, Ferrari launched its defiantly traditional and determinedly contrasting alternative, the 365 GTB/4. Almost immediately, the model gained its ‘Daytona’ moniker in honour of Ferrari’s 1-2-3 result in the 1967 24-hour race of the same name. The Daytona’s engine and handling certainly didn’t undermine its racing associations and with the 4.4-litre, quad-cam V12 producing an astonishing 352bhp it was, in period, the fastest road car in the world. Not only was 175mph more than brisk but, crucially, it was faster than the Miura. The 5-speed gearbox was mounted at the rear for optimal weight distribution and helped give the Daytona its predictable handling and solid road-holding. Delivered new on the 3rd August 1972 through Maranello Concessionaires Ltd, the official Ferrari agent for Great Britain at the time, this car is one of only 158 genuine right-hand drive vehicles supplied and is one of the nicest Daytonas we have seen in recent years. Early registration information identifies famous Ferrari enthusiast and songwriter Mr Elton John, of 14 Abbots Drive, Wentworth, Surrey, as the recorded owner and keeper of the car. We understand that Sir Elton purchased the Daytona in 1973 from the proceeds of his famed album “Goodbye Yellow Brick Road” which featured such timeless hits as “Candle in the Wind” and “Saturday’s Alright for Fighting”. Sir Elton famously has a long affinity with Ferrari and this Daytona was amongst his first entries into Ferrari ownership, if not his first, subsequently being stabled next to his 1974 Ferrari 365 Berlinetta Boxer until 1975.

Subsequent ownership history is well known and was made up of Ferrari Owners’ Club member-owners. The previous private collector proudly owned the car for 16 years, garaging and maintaining the vehicle regardless of cost. The bodywork is presented in excellent order, the door shuts and panel fit are exceptional and the Rosso Chiaro paintwork still retains a deep shine throughout. The interior was trimmed in 2017 in factory specification Black VM8500 Connolly Vaumol hide complete with the correct Ferrari-supplied punched, holed inserts. A full and complete history file supports this vehicle, with copies of the original build sheets, order forms, delivery correspondence and a chronologically ordered file of every Ferrari service bill and receipt from new. In addition, it is complemented by a complete set of original MOT certificates to support the indicated mileage of some 82,000 miles and has benefitted from a recent service and inspection, refurbishment of the original magnesium wheels and Michelin XWX tyres were fitted in 2017. We had the honour of selling this car in 2017 when it was bought by a young collector, Mr James Harris, who tethered it alongside the other stallions in his collection including his 1974 Ferrari 246 Dino and 1991 Ferrari Testarossa. Sadly Mr Harris passed away this year and we are offering the car on behalf of his family. Competitively guided for the current market we encourage prospective bidders to contact the office for private viewings and welcome any pre-sale inspections of this very special Ferrari.

• European-spec, left-hand drive, delivered new to Holland in January 1981 and imported into the UK in 1997 • Beautifully presented in, perhaps, the most desirable colour scheme of Rosso Corsa with Nero leather and Nero carpets • Detailed history folder with original book packs and service book stamped up-to-date supported by a wealth of invoices • Ideal for the holiday home, export, entry level enthusiast or maybe a stable mate for other classic sports cars The 308 GTB was launched at the Paris Motor Show in 1975 as a direct replacement for the Dino 246. Designed by Pininfarina with sweeping curves and aggressive lines, the 308 has gone on to become one of the most recognised Ferraris of all time. Fitted with a 2.9 litre DOHC V8 engine fed by four Webber 40DCNF Carburettors, the power output of 255bhp was sufficient to propel the 308 from 0 to 60mph in 6.5 seconds and on to a top speed of 159 mph. In 1980, the decision was taken to replace the carburettors with fuel injection, unfortunately reducing the engine output from 255 to 214 bhp, meaning that the earlier carburettor cars, like this one, are significantly quicker. The 308 was manufactured in both GTB and GTS (Spider) forms from 1977 to 1985, before being replaced by the 328. In hindsight, connoisseurs of Ferrari from this era consider the version to have is a Euro-spec, steel bodied car with a dry sump and carburettors, which is exactly what we have offered here. This left-hand drive Ferrari 308 GTS was delivered new to Amsterdam on the 2nd of January 1981 in arguably the most sought after colour combination of Rosso Corsa (red) paint with Nero (black) leather seating and black carpets. It’s currently showing 125,234 km on the odometer which equates to little over 77,817 miles in total, supported by the original service book stamped up-to-date. Clearly this example has been lavished with attention since arriving in the UK in 1997 visiting highly regarded marque specialists for maintenance and service work as detailed in a number of invoices found within the history folder. Most recently, this 308 visited QV London for an annual service including all fluids and some general repair work at 124,984 km and is offered with the original book pack, Ferrari sales literature, a history folder including old MOTs, a wealth of invoices and a clean MOT expiring on 12 August 2020.

In the case of the 599 GTB, only 30 cars worldwide were ordered with manual transmission, ten of which were delivered new to Europe. Silverstone Auctions are delighted to offer this extremely rare and desirable left-hand drive 599 GTB, which is one of the ten European examples fitted with the desirable manual transmission. Originally delivered new to Switzerland, this 599 was bought by our vendor, the second owner, from that country and then brought home to the UK in February 2018 and promptly UK-registered. It has formed part of his significant Ferrari collection ever since. Just 19,000 km (11,800 miles) have been covered since being delivered in 2008 and, as you can imagine for such a special car, it has been regularly cared for and looked after over that period.

Original book pack, stamped service book, supporting invoices, spare keys, tools and MOTs • Stunning example of the fast and comfortable 575 incorporating the latest F1 technology of the period In 1996, Ferrari introduced the 550 Maranello in a bid to revive their fabled line of grand tourers and it quickly proved to be an overwhelming success. Six years later, in 2002, the 575M Maranello appeared bringing with it a host of healthy updates adding additional potency to an already incredible car. Increasing the displacement of the V-12 by 250 cubic centimetres to 5748 cc, resulted in 508bhp and 434lb/ft of torque, 0-60 in 4.2 seconds and an advertised top speed of 202 mph. The front end was slightly revised with new headlights, a redesigned air intake and front spoiler, and the weight distribution was improved to 50/50. A choice of six-speed transmissions was available – a conventional manual gearbox and, for the first time on a Ferrari V12, Magneti Marelli’s semi-automatic (electro-hydraulic manual) ‘F1’ gearbox. Further mechanical improvements included bigger brakes and an adaptive suspension set-up (the four independent suspension units are also controlled by the gearbox, to minimise pitch throughout the 200-milliseconds gear shift time). Inside, the interior was modernised and refreshed with an updated dashboard, trim and steering wheel. Only 158 575Ms were delivered to the UK with the F1 gearbox and 64 with the manual box making a UK-supplied example still rather an exclusive car to own. This 2004 Ferrari 575M F1 in UK, right-hand drive specification was ordered through H.R Owen Sports Cars in Kensington and was subsequently collected from the Ferrari factory in Modena on the ninth of November that year. Options ticked included Nero Daytona Metallic paintwork (black), Nero Hide with contrasting Grigio Chiaro stitching, F1 paddle shift transmission, the Fiorano handling package and Scuderia Ferrari wing shields.

A cambelt service is planned before the sale • A well-regarded car in Ferrari circles featuring on the front cover of Auto Italia and Ferrari Club magazines • Best in Class at the 2016 Ferrari Owners Club Concours, trophies and certificates included • Presented in classic colours with a history file bursting with invoices and detailed maintenance notes The entirely new Ferrari 308 made its debut at the Paris Salon in 1975 and marked a welcome return to Pininfarina styling, with rakish lines and curved haunches. After ten years of huge success, particularly in the United States, Ferrari had grown weary of the “Federalisation” of their lovingly designed motorcars in America, with mandatory ugly rubber bumpers ruining the Pininfarina-penned lines. With their Italian aesthetics under attack, Ferrari launched the new 328 with body coloured front and rear bumpers which adhered to US guidelines, and for the first time, the design remained unadulterated by bureaucracy. Increasing both bore and stroke, the quattrovalvole engine’s capacity was raised to 3,186cc which, together with a higher compression ratio, revised pistons, and an improved Marelli engine management system, lifted maximum power to 270bhp. Top speed was raised to within a whisker of 160mph with the sprint to 100km/h covered in a fraction over 5.5 seconds. Beneath the skin, the tubular steel chassis remained much as before, with all-round independent suspension by double wishbones, four-wheel servo-assisted disc brakes, and aluminium-alloy wheels, though the latter were increased in size. The interior too had come in for subtle revision and now featured improved instruments, switchgear, and heating. Production ended in 1989 and by then some 7,412 GTS and GTB variants had rolled out of Maranello, with just 542 of them in right-hand drive.

This simply stunning 328 GTS is one of the rarest variants, an ABS model and just one of 292 produced in righthand drive. UK-supplied on the 1st August 1989 in classic colours, the car was purchased by our vendor in 2011 from a private collector via the Ferrari Owners Club UK. He was impressed by the service history and a bulging file that boasts every MOT, original book packs, two keys and pocket fob, a complete tool kit, unused bulb kit and even the very rare Ferrari inspection lamp. To complement the rigorous maintenance by previous owners our vendor, an engineer by profession, maintained the car to his own exacting standards, making maintenance notes over the years and filing the parts receipts. It’s very rare to encounter a Ferrari owner who has such an in-depth relationship with his car, and knows practically every nut and bolt, but such is our vendor’s knowledge and generosity he has contributed over 2,700 posts to the online owners’ forum ‘Ferrari Chat’ as a technical advisor. The works completed since 2011 are too numerous to list but the highlights include a full front and rear suspension rebuild with the bushes replaced with genuine new Ferrari parts, all shocks rebuilt by the manufacturer, and front wheel bearings replaced. Mechanically the valve clearances were checked and adjusted some 3,000 miles ago, and although the cam belts were replaced in 2016, our vendor will replace them prior to the sale. There is a list of works that can be emailed to prospective purchasers ahead of the sale and our vendor will be in attendance at the auction and would be happy to answer any questions from interested parties. With the car’s condition catching the eye of magazine publishers, it appeared on the front page of Auto Italia with an accompanying article and, as a well-regarded car within UK Ferrari circles, it would naturally feature on the front cover of the Ferrari Owners Club UK magazine. The car was entered in the 2016 Ferrari Owners Club Concours winning ‘Best in Class’ and a ‘Platinum Award’ and the trophies and certificates will remain with the car. In conclusion, this GTS is one of the finest examples we have seen and our vendor’s dedication to maintenance is extraordinary. It ticks virtually every box, and the warranted mileage of some 31,000 miles allows the car to sit within the finest collections or to be used as intended by its new owner.

Further mechanical improvements included bigger brakes and an adaptive suspension set-up (the four independent suspension units are also controlled by the gearbox, to minimise pitch throughout the 200-milliseconds gear shift time). Inside, the interior was modernised and refreshed with an updated dashboard, trim, and steering wheel. Only 158 575Ms were delivered to the UK with the F1 gearbox and 64 with the manual box making a UK-supplied example still rather an exclusive car to own. First registered on 13th December 2002, this 575M Maranello had been very tastefully specified with Rosso Corsa paintwork and Nero leather interior including Daytona seats. The specification also included the F1 paddle-shift gearbox, 19” Modular wheels, Red brake callipers and Scuderia Ferrari wing shields. The tool kit is also present with the spare wheel, original cover, Ferrari battery charger, spare keys, and the Ferrari book pack containing the service booklet stamped to date with the most recent service including cam-belts dated May 2018 at a highly regarded Ferrari specialist. The history folder contains a wealth of supporting invoices and old MOTs corroborating the 21,020

• The F12 Berlinetta is undoubtedly the ultimate frontengined, rear-wheel drive Grand Tourer from Ferrari The F12 Berlinetta is the ultimate front-engined, rear-wheel drive Grand Tourer from Ferrari and made its debut at the 2012 Geneva show. The car features one of the last naturally-aspirated, V12 engines of 6,300cc which produces 740PS with a mindboggling 690 N.m of torque resulting in 0-62mph in just 3.1 seconds and a top speed of 211mph. To say that this car is quick is a master of understatement, in fact, not only is it quick, but the handling allowed the car to go round the factory test track at Fiorano a second faster than a 599 GTO, 2 seconds faster than an Enzo (!) and three seconds faster than a 430 Scuderia! In short, it is an extraordinary motorcar, even more so when you consider its ability to carry two people in comfort as well as copious luggage space in the large boot. This particular UK right-hand drive car was supplied new by H.R.Owen, Brompton Road, London on the 13th October 2014 to a Mr Vicini, the car’s only ever owner. It was finished in the timeless Ferrari combination of Rosso Corsa with tan hide leather upholstery and Bordeaux carpets. The factory fitted options added up to over £47,000 in total value and the list is simply too long to include here, however, + buyer’s premium of 15% including VAT @ 20%

• A special-edition 599 GTB built to celebrate 60 years of F1 wins and named after Fernando Alonso • Based on the HGTE package, including the stiffer springs, recalibrated shock absorbers, lowered ride height and optimised tyres • Only 40 built in total, all finished in Rosso F1 Storico paint with unique 20-inch diamond-cut alloys wheels and Scuderia Ferrari badging • Bespoke Alonso interior with carbon-fibre trim, Alcantara-covered Sabelt bucket seats and red and blue harnesses • This lovely example was first registered by Gaudual Sport S.A.S. Ferrari France June 2012 as a demonstrator. Purchased by its first owner in France on 14th February 2013 • Imported to the UK in early 2017 and has remained in our vendor’s significant collection since • Just 8,000 miles with a full Ferrari service history in France and the UK. Currently on a NOVA In 2004, Ferrari entered a new era in styling with the mid-engined F430 and followed that success with the front-engined 599GTB in 2006. Dramatic, aggressive and beautiful, the 599’s styling was some of the most harmonious in a front-engined Ferrari since the Daytona, redefining the ideal with a sharply defined shape and organically sculpted details. The cabin’s pronounced rearward placement allowed the 599 GTB’s naturally aspirated, fuel-injected 6.0-litre/611bhp V-12 to be positioned far back in the car’s chassis, resulting in excellent front-rear balance. The optional F1-Superfast 6-speed transmission was designed to change gear in as little as 100 milliseconds, approaching actual F1 levels meaning that the 599 GTB could launch from 0 to 60 MPH in 3.7 seconds and continue accelerating hard up to 205 MPH. Like the Maranello that preceded it, the 599 GTB’s electronically controlled adjustable suspension could be programmed for various driving conditions, but response time was increased almost fourfold with the switch from electric motors to magnetorheological shock absorbers. The 599’s interior was voluptuously sculpted and a wonderful blend of leather and carbon fibre with seats that were clearly inspired by those of the Daytona.

In December 2011, Ferrari announced a special-edition 599 GTB to celebrate 60 years of F1 wins. Endowed with the HGTE-model’s tougher suspension, shorter springs and stiffer anti-roll bars, the Alonso Edition, named after the legendary Ferrari F1 driver Fernando Alonso, was distinguished by a special colour scheme inspired by the 375 Formula One car from the 1950s, combining a red body (Rosso F1 Storico) with white highlights on the side skirts, front bumper and roof, unique 20-inch diameter diamondfinished alloy wheels, and Scuderia Ferrari badging. The interior was also unique with extensive use of carbon fibre and Alcantara-covered Sabelt bucket seats (Recaro in the US) with red and blue harnesses, red stitching and Prancing Horse headrest embroidery. Only 40 of these Alonso Final Editions were produced and, naturally, have disappeared into collections all over the world so rarely come to market. This lovely example was first registered by Gaudual Sport S.A.S. Ferrari France in June 2012 as a demonstrator prior to being purchased by its first owner in France on 14th February 2013. The service records with the car indicate that it was serviced twice by Gauduel Ferrari on 26th February 2014 at 5,700 km and on 11th February 2015 at 12,509 km. It was imported into the UK in early 2017 and has remained in our vendor’s significant collection ever since, being used sparingly but nevertheless serviced by Maranello Egham on 31st March 2017 at 13,507km and again by Dick Lovett Ferrari in Swindon on 13th March 2018 at 13,772km. The car has not been registered in the UK and is currently on a NOVA. With one owner in France and one owner in the UK, although never registered in the UK, technically the car is one registered keeper from new. 2012 marked the end of production of the very successful 599GTB and this farewell special-edition is a worthy departure. With only 40 ever built, it’s unlikely that they will appear very often, making this immaculate, 8,000-mile example with a full Ferrari service history, worth serious consideration.

• The F430 was at least 70% new compared with the 360, with a new engine, a new F1 gearbox, a new diff and a brand-new chassis • The F430’s complex variable-valve-timing system is also lifted straight from the Enzo’s V12 and as ever there is dry-sump lubrication • Its 4.3-litre V8 will rocket this very sleek Ferrari from 0-62 mph in just 3.7 seconds and on to a maximum speed in excess of 196 mph • Right-hand drive, UK-supplied/registered car with just 630 miles from new, delivered new via HR Owen London; the original owner had HR Owen store it until 2012 when it was first registered. FE12 TOY will remain with the car • Up-to-date main dealer service history (six stamps in total), last done at 592 miles on 21st January 2019 at HR Owen; Ferrari ‘Power’ warranty until 5th May 2020 Manufactured from 2004 until 2009, the Ferrari F430 was the successor to the very successful 360M and, according to its creators, was at least 70% new compared with the previous model, itself a ground-breaker. Its aluminium structure was more rigid than the 360’s, it had a new engine, a new F1 gearbox, a new differential, and a brand-new chassis, and although the styling is obviously reminiscent of the 360M’s, in reality, it’s pretty much a ground-up design. Largely the work of Pininfarina, although overseen by Ferrari’s design chief Frank Stephenson, the F430 still looks fresh today, more crisp-edged than the 360, with a strong hint of Enzo around the surface-erupting tail-lights. Its all-new 4.3-litre V8 engine, with four valves per cylinder instead of the 360’s five, and chain camshaft drive instead of belts, with a consequent great reduction in service costs, has a variable-valve-timing system lifted straight from the Enzo’s V12, dry-sump lubrication, a very high compression ratio (11.3:1), a variable airflow plenum chamber, and an enormous electronic brain making the decisions in the form of not one, but two, Bosch Motronic ME7 ECUs. At 483bhp it boasts 21% more power than the 360, exceeding even that of the mighty (and turbocharged) F40, whilst the torque spread is extraordinary for an engine keen to howl beyond 8500rpm. All these factors contribute to a 0-62mph time of just 3.7 seconds and a maximum speed in excess of 196mph.

Ferrari and Porsche Sale 2019
The advancements continued with the ‘Manettino’, the steering wheel-mounted selector for stability systems, damping, shift speed, and throttle response. And there’s the E-diff, whose calibrations this alters, a clever, clutchcontrolled active differential that sorts out waywardness, not by inhibiting one rear wheel, but by pouring more torque into the other. Ferrari reckons it’s worth three seconds a lap at the Fiorano test track, and it certainly helps make the F430 a far more forgiving machine than the 360, and a car of supremely subtle and keen responses. Unveiled at the 2005 Geneva Motor Show, the F430 Spider is the convertible version based on the Coupé and is Ferrari’s 21st road-going convertible. The car was designed by Pininfarina with the aid of aerodynamic simulation programs used by their Formula 1 team. The conversion from a closed top to an open-air convertible is a two-stage folding-action with the roof panel automatically folding away inside a space above the engine bay, the whole process only taking a few seconds and undoubtedly a masterpiece of microengineering. The interior and performance of the Spider are identical to that of the Coupé. The car presented here is a UK-supplied, right-hand drive, 2009 Ferrari F430 F1 Spider and has, quite remarkably, covered just 630 miles in total. Supplied new via HR Owen London, and due somewhat intriguingly to his circumstances, the original owner had the dealership professionally store the car until 2012, when it was first registered. Since 2009, this special car has a main dealer service history (six stamps in total), with the last service carried out at 592 miles on 21st January 2019 at HR Owen and it comes with a Ferrari ‘Power’ warranty until May 2020. Having benefited from full PPF and having covered so few miles, our vendor describes the bodywork as being ‘like new’. This condition is only matched by the striking colour combination of Bianco Avus paintwork and Rosso leather interior and impressive specification (full details available at our documents desk) which includes an enormous amount of lightweight and expensive carbon-fibre. This must be one of the lowest mileages ever seen on an F430, and certainly fits the criteria for ‘best-of-breed’. Cars of this quality and with such low mileage rarely come to market and this beautiful F430 F1 Spider represents an excellent opportunity.

• Comfortable and elegant Pininfarina-designed Grand Tourer. One of only 505 produced • The 340 bhp, 4.4-litre V12 with six twin-choke Webers provides impressive performance • Supplied new by Modern Classic Motors in Reno finished in a striking dark grey metallic • Specified new in left-hand-drive with air-con, power windows and an MPH speedometer • Imported into the UK by Joe Macari in 2014 and immediately subjected to a Concours-standard restoration • The history file contains a Massini Report (ownership history) and importantly, Ferrari’s official Classiche “Certificazione di Autenticita” • Exhibited at the 2016 London Classic Car Show where it was purchased by our vendor, Jamiroquai frontman, Jay Kay to join his eclectic private collection • Properly stored and maintained, on the button, ready to go and realistically guided The 365 GTC/4 was first introduced at the Geneva show in 1971 and shared its chassis and engine block with the bigger Daytona 365 GTB/4. Despite riding on the same platform, and thus sharing the same wheelbase and suspension, the car was aimed at being a more comfortable grand tourer and so softer spring rates and hydraulic power steering came as standard. Styled by Pininfarina and built with a steel body and aluminium doors, the very graceful lines of the body could be achieved because the 4.4-litre V12 engine ran six twin-choke Weber carburettors, rather than injection, allowing a lower profile and more sloping bonnet. The car gave 340BHP and benefitted from near-perfect weight distribution of 51:49 thanks to the 5-speed gearbox and alloy bell housing being set well back in the chassis. Just 505 cars were ever produced making this a highly collectable and rare example of the marque. This particular left-hand drive car, chassis 15623, was specified new with air conditioning, power windows and a speedometer in miles-per-hour and was supplied by Modern Classic Motors in Reno, Nevada. The history file contains a Massini report which documents the cars ownership history from new and the car also carries Ferrari’s official Classiche

“Certificazione di Autenticita” which confirms it retains its original engine from new. Imported to the UK by noted official Ferrari service and restoration centre, Joe Macari, in 2014, it was then restored by them to Concours condition and, on completion, exhibited at the 2016 London Classic Car Show at Excel as an example of their very best work. Suitably impressed by the outstanding standard of restoration achieved, it was purchased by our vendor, rock legend and Jamiroquai frontman, Jay Kay, for £375,000 and became a part of his amazing and eclectic private collection. Since then it has enjoyed occasional use and, like all his cars, having been properly stored and maintained is today on the button and ready to go. Recently Silverstone Auctions MD, Nick Whale, drove the car and had this to say afterwards: “My prior thoughts of the 365 GTC/4 were modest given the amazing reputation of the Daytona. However, when Jay threw me the keys with a glint in his eye my hopes were raised, rightly as it happens, and this car turned out to be the best driving Ferrari built in the 1970’s that I have ever experienced. It has refinement in terms of both ride and noise levels, way beyond any reasonable expectations and furthermore, it has performance and handling to match. The engine just purrs at tick over and from there it delivers amazing quantities of both torque and power in a smooth and quietly progressive manner. In short, it’s a real drivers car that you could cover serious miles in with no concerns about comfort and reliability. I absolutely love it!” Offered at an amazingly realistic guide today, this car offers a serious Ferrari collector a very special opportunity.

Six years later, in 2002, the 575M Maranello appeared bringing with it a host of healthy updates adding additional potency to an already incredible car. Increasing the displacement of the V-12 by 250 cubic centimetres to 5748cc, resulted in 508bhp and 434lb/ft of torque, 0-60 in 4.2 seconds and an advertised top speed of 202 mph. The front end was slightly revised with new headlights, a redesigned air intake and front spoiler, and the weight distribution was improved to 50/50. A choice of six-speed transmissions was available – a conventional manual gearbox and, for the first time on a Ferrari V12, Magneti Marelli’s semi-automatic (electro-hydraulic manual) ‘F1’ gearbox. Further mechanical improvements included bigger brakes and an adaptive suspension set-up (the four independent suspension units are also controlled by the gearbox, to minimise pitch throughout the 200-milliseconds gear shift time). Inside, the interior was modernised and refreshed with an updated dashboard, trim, and steering wheel. This outstanding example was delivered new via Kroymans to Munsterhuis Sports cars B.V and first registered 10th February 2003. The original owner didn’t hold back when selecting options for his new Ferrari and the generous specification includes Nero Daytona (metallic black) paintwork, Fiorano handling pack, carbon racing seats, carbon driver zone (F1 paddles, dash inserts, steering wheel), carbon interior door panels, carbon door sills, premium audio inc factory Subwoofers, sat nav, Rosso Rev Counter display and a Tubi Sports exhaust system. This wellspecified and driver-focused 575M would remain in Holland in single ownership until being selected and imported into the UK by a private Ferrari collector in 2015. The car

subsequently changed hands to his business partner (our vendor) and as such is a three owner car in total. Today the car presents beautifully, in fact, the car is outstanding with even panel gaps and bright even paintwork only showing some small stone chips to the front as expected from an original car. The interior is also excellent with no adverse signs of wear including all of the internal switch-gear which has been removed and refinished to address the notorious ‘sticky’ found on Ferrari from this era. Evidently, this example has been well cared for over the years, enjoyed, maintained and stored correctly. Now showing 113,574 km or 70,500 miles supported by a full and complete maintenance record, serviced mainly by the supplying dealer in Holland at correct intervals and, since arrival in the UK, maintained by Ferrari main agent Dick Lovett with the most recent service dated 28th February 2019 showing 113,471km. Offered with the original book pack including service booklet stamped up-to-date with supporting invoices and Ferrari inspection torch, complete tool kit, car covers, battery charger and history folder containing a wealth of documents and invoices.

• UK-supplied on the 21st March 2007 to the first of three former owners
conditioning and launch control to mention a few.
• The 11,250 miles is complemented by a superb main dealer maintenance record
Used sparingly by its previous custodians, it is good to note that the heat shields in the engine bay show very little distortion or loss of colour, a common issue with welltravelled F430s of the era. The car has one of the finest service records for an F430 we have seen and has been main dealer serviced at the following intervals:
• With 12 service stamps the car was last serviced in July by Dick Lovett, Swindon • Well presented in the classic colours of Rossa Corsa with Crema leather interior and ‘Daytona’ seats • Supplied with a UK V5c, tool kits, service book and a history showing reams of receipts Manufactured from 2004 until 2009, the Ferrari F430 was the successor to the enormously successful 360M. According to its creators, the F430 was at least 70% new compared with the 360. It had a new engine, a new F1 gearbox, a new diff and a brand-new chassis, it was pretty much a ground-up re-design. Only the bonnet, doors, and roof were carried over; the rest, even the door mirrors, were all new and largely the work of Pininfarina, overseen by Ferrari’s design chief, Frank Stephenson. The fabulously sounding 4.3-litre V8 will rocket this very sleek Ferrari from 0-62mph in just 3.7 seconds and on to a maximum speed in excess of 196mph. Having been designed initially with a later convertible in mind, the arrival of the Spider in 2005 was no surprise. Weighing only a few pounds more than the Berlinetta and having been designed with the aid of the company’s F1 aerodynamicists, the Spider is just as fast and its top speed is only a few miles an hour less. The ingenious electric soft-top mechanism works quickly and makes its predecessor seem almost ponderous by comparison.

With modern styling cues, a 5.5-litre V12 engine producing around 485bhp and a reported top speed of 199mph, the 550 Maranello was a serious motor car. A less frenetic power delivery, the six-speed manual box and excellent weight distribution were all factors in the 550 becoming the perfect European Grand Tourer. We are pleased to offer this exquisite Ferrari 550 Maranello which was supplied new directly by Maranello Concessionaires on 1st March 2001. Finished in Grigio Titanio, the interior is trimmed in Bordeaux leather and fitted with the very desirable Daytona seats. The original service book accompanying this car shows it has been well maintained throughout with all services being carried out by either Maranello, Graypaul or marque specialists, QV London. Having had just three former keepers, the car is in super condition and has obviously been used selectively as evidenced by the indicated mileage of 22,500. Prior to the sale, the car will be serviced at marque specialists, Kent High Performance, who will also put it through an MOT and issue a fresh Test Certificate. Supplied with its UK V5c for registration number ‘X5 SOX’ and its original tools and book pack, this low mileage, low owner Ferrari 550M is a super example and will reward any close inspection.

Power is 670PS and 670 N.m of torque from the 6-litre V12, normally-aspirated engine and the 0-62mph time is a remarkable 3.2 seconds on its way to a top speed of 208mph. The F1 gearbox features the multi-shift programme from the 599XX race car as well as the race-tuned exhaust, which means this car sounds as good as it looks! This particular right-hand drive car was supplied new by Ferrari Singapore on 9th Decenber 2010 and remained in Singapore until 2017 where it was regularly serviced by the supplying official Ferrari dealer every year on the 20th December 2011 at 2,706 km, the 17th November 2012 at 4,745 km, the 23rd November 2013 at 6038 km, 6th December 2014 at 7,320 km, the 8th December 2015 at 8,559 km and the 21st December 2016 at 10,075 km. Today, it has covered just 10,920 km from new which equates to about 6,800 miles. The official Ferrari service book is the same throughout the
54
Ferrari and Porsche Sale 2019
world these days and all the dealer stamps are clearly visible confirming the history and mileage as genuine. All UK taxes are now paid and the car now conforms 100% to the same specification as a UK-supplied example, as confirmed by letters from Ferrari in the history file supplied with the car. The rare colour of Avus Bianco with Tour de France Blue stripes on the bonnet was only available by special order making this a very rare car. In fact, only 60 or so of the 599 GTOs ever made were built in right-hand drive - so this may be the only right-hand drive model ever finished in White with Blue racing stripes and consequently unique. Sitting in the carbon fibre racing seats with the 4-point racing harnesses fastened instantly makes you feel at one with this serious grand tourer, and the thought of all the world’s amazing touring routes and fast challenging mountain roads seem a dream definitely worth making real! Especially when priced to sell today at about half of their value just two to three years ago. What an opportunity!

• The ‘definitive’ Ferrari style of the late 1970s/1980s • A desirable carburettor steel-bodied model in a classic colour combination • Coming from a small private collection of classic cars; kept in a temperature and climate-controlled garage • Purchased by our vendor in 2015 following a nut & bolt restoration by marque specialists ‘QV London’, including a new tan leather interior • Coming with approximately £42,000 worth of invoices The 308 GTB, launched at the Paris Motor Show in 1975, was conceived as a direct replacement for the 246 Dino. Designed by Leonardo Fioravanti, the man who styled some of the most iconic Ferraris including the Daytona, the new 308 had a rakish and attractive body which fused classic elements of Ferrari styling with a thoroughly modern design. Perhaps one of the most recognisable designs ever penned for Ferrari, the 308 was an instant hit and it came to define late 1970’s and early 1980’s sports cars. For the first two years of production, the body of the 308 was produced in fibreglass, before the decision was reached to change to steel. It shared a similar tube frame chassis to the original Dino and 308 GT4, with four-wheel, double wishbone, independent suspension and a transverselymounted 2.9-litre DOHC four-cam, 90-degree V8 engine fed by four Weber 40DCNF carburettors. For the UK and Europe, the engine was dry-sumped, giving a power output of 255bhp which was enough to propel the 308 from 0-60 mph in 6.5 seconds and give a top speed of 159 mph. In the early 1980s, the decision was taken to replace the carburettors with fuel injection, reducing the engine output to 214bhp. The ‘Targa’ topped 308 GTS arrived in 1977 and was perhaps best known for its regular appearances on the television series ‘Magnum, P.I’. The 308 was manufactured in both GTB and GTS (Spyder) forms from 1977 to 1985, before being replaced by the 328. The car presented here is a UK-supplied, right-hand drive, Ferrari 308 GTS from 1978 and consequently is a steel-bodied carburettor model. The car is being offered from a very particular privateer vendor, who has a small and discerning collection of choice classic cars. He

Ferrari and Porsche Sale 2019
purchased this car in 2015 following a complete nut and bolt restoration by Ferrari specialists ‘QV London’, where it starred on their website under featured restorations titled ‘Back to Red’. This exacting work also included the fitting of a brand-new tan leather interior, and there are invoices totalling over £42,000 for this project. This stunning 308 has wanted for nothing and is as nice as you’d expect. Having covered just 63,000 miles, which is negated somewhat by the thoroughness of the full restoration, this is a ‘best-ofbreed’ example. If you’ve hankered after owning a ‘real’ Ferrari, then this is the right car for you. The hard work has been done, it just needs to be used and enjoyed!

As a ‘Maranello Sales Ltd.’ demonstrator, the car benefits from the later Bosch Motronic 5.2 ignition/injection system, a smoother accelerator pedal action, the factory inbuilt alarm system, a modified exhaust, and twin airbags. The car was subsequently sold by Mark Hawkins of ‘Maranello Sales Ltd.’ to the second owner, a Mr Christopher Klein of Surrey, on 8th October 1997, with 5,009 recorded miles for £102,000!
• Owned by our privateer vendor for 13 years • Serviced/maintained by renowned marque specialist Bob Houghton The Ferrari F355 is now considered 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 burst onto the world stage in the Spring of 1994, with the Targa GTS and Spider being launched in 1995. With 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 channelled airflow generating enough downforce to offset any lift. The Ferrari F355’s name is derived from its 3.5-litre V8 engine and five valves per cylinder - as denoted by the ‘Cinquevalvole’ inscription on the rocker covers. This longitudinally-mounted engine produces a stunning 374bhp at a spine-tingling 8250rpm. The con-rods are titanium alloy, the clutch is housed in magnesium alloy, and the Bilstein shock absorbers use electronic sensors to provide active damping. In 1994, the Ferrari F355 was a technological tour de force. Around Ferrari’s 1.86-mile Fiorano test track, the F355 was two seconds a lap faster than the 12-cylinder, 512 TR and that level of performance combined with its sensational shape made it a worldwide success story. The car presented here is a UK-supplied, right-hand drive, 1996 F355 Spider, fitted with the more desirable manual gearbox. It was delivered new and first registered by Ferrari main dealers, ‘Maranello Sales Ltd.’ to themselves on 26th March 1996 when the list price was £98,700 plus delivery,
+ buyer’s premium of 15% including VAT @ 20%
Within the history file, there are ‘Maranello Sales Ltd.’ service invoices from 1999, when the car was owned by a Mr John Radley of Surrey, who latterly had it serviced by ‘Kent High Performance Cars’, who subsequently bought it from him in 2004 before, in turn, selling it to Jane Knight of Sussex, on 14th March 2004, at 13,438 miles. The next owner was a Mr Stephen Cole, also of Sussex, who bought the car in January 2005, with some 15,000 recorded miles. Because of work commitments, Mr Cole barely used the car, with our vendor acquiring it soon afterwards. He has enjoyed a further 15,000 miles in it, whilst maintaining its excellent service record, always entrusting it to marque specialists, Bob Houghton. Please visit www.silverstoneauction.com for a breakdown of the service history. In addition, all the rubber coated switches, handles, buttons and vents were sent to the USA to be recovered some four years ago. This splendid car is supplied with its factory original handbook, service book, wallet, two sets of original keys and tools. Just 454 right-hand drive F355 Spiders were imported into the UK by Maranello Concessionaires and only 315 had the six-speed manual gearbox like this car. This is a simply superb example of one of the most revered and sought-after Ferrari models of the modern era.

• An original UK-supplied, right-hand drive 365 GTB/4 (1 of 156 right-hand drive cars) • Delivered new to Tommy Dickson, the legendary ‘Ecurie Ecosse’ Le Mans driver • Superbly finished in Blue Dino Metallic with a Pelle Beige interior • Bare metal restoration by Foskers to its original colour scheme in January 2015 • Full Ferrari Factory Classiche Certification awarded in the Summer of 2016 • Consistently maintained to a very high standard by acknowledged experts • Lots of history and older MOTs help corroborate the 53,000 miles indicated The ultimate expression of Ferrari’s fabulous line of V12 front-engined sports cars, the 365 GTB/4 debuted at the Paris Salon in 1968, soon gaining the unofficial name ‘Daytona’ in honour of the sweeping 1, 2, 3 finish by the Ferrari 330P4 at that circuit in 1967. Pininfarina’s Leonardo Fioravanti, later the famed Carrozzeria’s director of research and development, was responsible for the influential shark-nosed styling, creating a package that restated the traditional ‘long bonnet, small cabin, short tail’ look in a manner suggesting muscular horsepower while retaining all the elegance associated with the Italian coachbuilder’s work for Maranello. One of Pininfarina’s countless masterpieces, the influential shark-nosed body style featured an unusual full-width transparent panel covering the headlamps, though this was replaced by electrically-operated pop-up lights to meet US requirements soon after the start of production in the second half of 1969. Although the prototype had been styled and built by Pininfarina in Turin, manufacture of the production version was entrusted to Ferrari’s subsidiary Scaglietti in Modena. The Daytona’s all-alloy, four-cam, V12 engine displaced 4,390cc and produced its maximum output of 352bhp at 7,500rpm, with 318lb/ft of torque available at 5,500 revs. Dry-sump lubrication enabled it to be installed low in the oval-tube chassis while shifting the gearbox to the rear in the form of a five-speed transaxle meant 50/50 weight distribution could be achieved. The all-independent wishbone and coil-spring suspension was a recent development, having originated in the preceding 275GTB. Unlike the
58
Ferrari and Porsche Sale 2019
contemporary 365GTC/4, the Daytona was not available with power steering, a feature then deemed inappropriate for a ‘real’ sports car. There was, however, servo assistance for the four-wheel ventilated disc brakes. Air conditioning was optional, but elsewhere the Daytona remained uncompromisingly focussed on delivering nothing less than serious performance. At the time of its introduction in 1968, it was the most expensive production Ferrari ever and, with a top speed in excess of 170mph, was also the world’s fastest production car. Deliveries commenced in the second half of 1969 and the Daytona would be manufactured for just four years; not until the arrival of the 456 GT in 1992 would Ferrari build anything like it again. Only 1,300 Berlinetta models and 121 Spyder convertibles had been made when production ceased in 1973. Only 156 Daytonas were manufactured in right-hand drive and Chassis number 15837 is indeed one of those rare cars. In common with many important cars, this fabulous motor car is accompanied by a massive history file which can take some wading through, however, in this case, Foskers have helpfully compiled a four-page ‘Ownership, MOT and service summary’ that documents the car’s history from new up until April 2016 when it was purchased by our vendor. All the relevant invoices and documentation since then have been kept in the same fastidious manner. From this useful summary, we can glean that 17th February 1972 an order was placed by Maranello Concessionaires with the factory for a 365 GTB/4 in Blue Dino Metallizzato (106-A-72) with Pelle Beige (VM3218) hide, beige carpets and optional airconditioning. On 22nd May 1972 the car was UK-registered to its first recorded owner, Ian Anthony (Sales) Ltd. of Bury in Lancashire. September the 21st, 1983 marks the change to its second owner, William Loughran Ltd of Preston, Lancashire and a Mr Hughes of Hampstead was the third lucky owner in May 1984. The Fosker’s document continues for several pages listing MOT mileages, changes of registration number (6), services, and small repairs. Significant dates are 15th May 1989 when a ‘body restoration’ was undertaken by Maranello Concessionaires on behalf of Lord Fitzallan Howard, Greystoke Automotive of Rotherwick and the invoice for this totalled £25,989.85 at 30,293 miles on 8th November 1989. In August 2004, Octane Magazine featured an elevenpage comparison between 15837 and a 365 GTC/4 with the car driven by Mark Hales and a copy of the magazine is in the owner’s file.
During the Summer of 2016, 15837 was successful in being awarded its ‘Certificazione di Autenticita’ by the factory, the legendary ‘Classiche’ that every classic Ferrari owner desires

We welcome any inspection of this important car and would suggest that we leave the last words to John Pogson who has worked with these cars for over forty years and is an acknowledged authority on the Daytona.

Our vendor purchased the Daytona from Foskers in April 2016 and in the file there is a very detailed report from the hugely knowledgeable John Pogson MIMI who had been asked to carry out a pre-sale inspection. The issues highlighted were mainly cosmetic and minor mechanical and it would appear that our vendor made allowance for these prior to agreeing on a final figure. Certainly, there are half a dozen invoices (around £9,000) from Italia-Autosport over the following three years that appear to address all the items from that report.

The car was designed by Pininfarina under the direction of Ferrari’s own chief designer, Flavio Manzoni. Maranello had previously dabbled with four driven wheels in the 1987 408 Integrale concept, but the V12-engined FF is the first Ferrari to make series production with such a system. This all-wheel-drive system, patented 4RM, is said to weigh 50 per cent less than a conventional setup, helping maintain close-to-ideal weight distribution (47/53 front/rear). It works in tandem with the car’s numerous electronic dynamic control systems, adjusting torque distribution between the four wheels depending on conditions and terrain. The FF also boasts a magnetorheological damping system and carbonceramic Brembo brakes. As well as being the first four-wheel-drive Ferrari, it’s described as the company’s most versatile four-seater ever, with best in class cabin space and boot capacity figures. At 4907mm long, 1953mm wide and 1374mm high, it’s almost identical in size to the V12 four-seater it replaced, the rear-wheel-drive Ferrari 612 Scaglietti, however, with its rear seats down it boasts almost three times the boot capacity (800 litres) and with them up (450 litres), it can hold more

Powering all four wheels for the first time is a naturally aspirated 6.3-litre V12 direct-injection engine (a descendant of the V12 that featured in the Enzo) with 651bhp (at a howling 8000rpm) and 504lb ft of torque. These figures are enough to hustle the 1790kg FF (dry weight) from 0-62mph in a claimed 3.7sec, while the top speed is a distinctly ‘supercar-esque’ 208 mph. The car presented here is a UK-supplied right-hand drive 2013 Ferrari FF, in a discreet colour combination with a wellconsidered specification. Purchased by our privateer vendor in 2018, this striking car has covered a meagre 17,500 miles and has a full Ferrari service history, having just benefited from a recent service, whilst also having a one-year Ferrari ‘Power’ warranty. The specification includes: Diamond-cut alloys, a front lift system, Scuderia badges, yellow brake calipers, lots of leather including the roof lining, parcel shelf and ventilated Daytona seats, advanced lighting system, front and rear parking sensors with camera, Ferrari tracker, premium Hi-Fi and new Pioneer ICE which has Apple Car play. Guided at a competitive level in today’s market, some say the FF drives better than the GTC4 Lusso that recently replaced it, but who are we to say?!

A larger car than the 512BB, the increase in girth being necessary to accommodate wider tyres, the Testarossa managed the trick of combining high downforce with a low coefficient of drag, its graceful body being notable for the absence of extraneous spoilers and other such devices. Despite the increase in size over the 512BB, the Testarossa was lighter than its predecessor as its bodywork, steel doors and roof excepted, unusually for a production Ferrari was formed from aluminium. Luxury touches in the well-equipped cabin included air conditioning, electrically adjustable seats, a tilting steering wheel and lots of leather. Unlike some of its rivals, the Testarossa possessed light controls and was relatively easy to drive, factors which, allied to its outstanding performance and stunning looks, contributed to an instant and sustained high level of demand. In 1992, the original Testarossa was succeeded by the updated 512TR version, with 423bhp on tap, while ABS brakes were added to the package before the 512TR was replaced by what would be the Testarossa’s final incarnation – the 512M – for 1995. For the first time, there were major cosmetic changes: the original pop-up headlights were replaced by fixed lamps beneath clear covers, the grille size reduced, round tail lamps adopted and distinctive threepiece wheels completed the package. Titanium connecting rods, new four-valve heads, and other minor changes resulted in an increase in engine power to 380bhp at + buyer’s premium of 15% including VAT @ 20%
6,300rpm with marginally more torque. Only 501 examples of the 512M had been completed when production ceased. This immaculate, left-hand drive 1995 Ferrari 512M (Modificato) is indeed one of those five hundred and one and was supplied new to its first owner by Eberlein Ferrari in Germany on 29th April 1995. It was first registered in the UK during October 2015, has been enjoyed by two former keepers since then, and remains finished in its original colour combination of Rosso Corsa with Nero leather trim and matching carpets. It sits on a set of turbine-blade 18” Speedline split-rim alloy wheels which really suit it. The car has only covered some 30,000km (18,750 miles) from new and the service records indicate that it has been maintained punctually and correctly with regular belt changes, the most recent of which was in December of 2018 when Bob Houghton Ferrari were given the honour in exchange for £6,500. Naturally, the car is accompanied by its full book pack and tools in the traditional Ferrari leather presentation. This fabulous Ferrari is being offered from the collection of a long-term client of Silverstone Auctions who only has the best in his stable and really looks after them. Although the 512M was the final development of the Testarossa it was the distillation of a decade of small improvements and had obviously been to the gym, lost a bit of weight, toned those biceps and had a bit of a facelift. The one dimension that hadn’t changed was East to West and the 512 still looked a fraction wider than your average US aircraft-carrier, however, despite its white line-straddling profile, it feels nimble and civilised to drive and not at all intimidating. Its looks have remained dramatic, however, and still generate the open-mouthed disbelief that was much in evidence in Paris in 1984 when we got our first look at the Testarossa, but whilst the prospect of owning a top-of-therange, mid-engined, Continent-munching Ferrari seemed a dream back then, this superbly presented, low mileage, impeccably maintained 512M is sensibly guided and eminently attainable.

This new car was constructed on a traditional steel tube chassis, but its beautiful bodywork was initially manufactured in GRP and then, after two years, Scaglietti started making GTBs in steel. The 3-litre, four-cam V8 was more or less unchanged until March 1981 when Bosch fuel injection was added in place of the four double-choke Webers, reducing the engine’s power output significantly, although the final drive was altered on these cars to give similar acceleration to a carburettor car. Two years later, the 4-valve per cylinder Quattrovalvole or ‘QV’ model pushed output back up to 240 bhp restoring the status quo. European spec cars boasted higher horsepower than cars built for the American market and were lighter. Only 748 308 GTB/S QV models were produced and they are considered by many to be the most desirable of all the 308 variations as they are the fastest and most subtly styled with a deep front valance, racing mirrors and short lightweight bumpers. Offered here is a lovely UK- supplied, 1983 right-hand drive Ferrari 308GTS QV in the classic colour combination of Rosso Corsa with a Nero interior. The history file is comprehensive and contains details of recent attention (November 2018) including a cambelt service. At the same time, the clutch was replaced along with the headlamp motors, front spotlights, steering rack, the front discs and all the suspension bushes.

However, beneath the fabulous styling and smoother skin, were further major advancements, including power steering, variable damping, and a 100cc engine enlargement. The longitudinally mounted 3496cc V8 generated a market-leading 380 horsepower at a spine-tingling 8,250 rpm and the gearbox now had six speeds with a revised synchromesh making gear changes so much smoother. New electronically adjustable shock absorbers varied their stiffness within milliseconds to suit the road surface and the result of all these developments was evident around Ferrari’s 1.86 mile Fiorano test track when the 355 was two seconds a lap faster than the 12-cylinder 512 TR.
This included; cambelt, pulleys and tensioner, clutch and clutch bearings, front and rear brakes, period-correct front and rear tyres, water pump and ancillary belts and hoses. Prior to the extensive recommissioning service, it had obviously been well looked after as is evident from the comprehensive service record including many belt changes by Ferrari main dealers, Maranello in Egham and Lancaster in Colchester. The car’s most recent service was in May 2019 by Stratstone Ferrari in Wilmslow at a cost of £2,000 detailed on a copy invoice in the owner’s file. In total, around £18,000 has been spent in the last nine months to return this wonderful little Ferrari to the condition in which you see it today. Every iteration of the F355 is desirable, however, if you really enjoy extending your Ferrari, the Berlinetta with a manual gearbox and carbon buckets is undoubtedly the way to go. This is a really lovely example offered with its full book pack, tools, V5c and an MOT until December 2019 and appears very sensibly guided.
Sitting on the cusp between analogue and digital, the 355 is considered the forerunner of all modern Ferraris and, as the last of the hand-built cars before the 360 and later descendants moved to mass production, will inevitably slip into the role of ‘Classic Ferrari’ with ease becoming increasingly sought after as time goes by. On offer here is a truly stunning 355 in striking black with a black/grey interior and the sought after carbon bucket seat option. It spent a period of time, correctly stored off the road probably explaining the modest mileage of just 16,480 at the time of consignment. In 2018 it was released from storage and subjected to a complete mechanical overhaul from front to back at a cost just shy of £11,000 carried out by Ferrari specialists, AML Performance Ltd. in Macclesfield. + buyer’s premium of 15% including VAT @ 20%

• One of just 101 right-hand drive examples of the 5-litre Berlinetta Boxer • Supplied new to Adplas of London by Cooper Car Sales of Leicestershire • Classically finished in Rosso over Nero with Nero hide upholstery • In current private ownership since 2012 and only 33,500 miles • Accompanied by its original order form, sales brochure, book pack and service book Having reasserted itself at the top of the ‘supercar’ hierarchy with the first ‘Boxer’ - the 365GT/4 BB, Ferrari went one better with its successor, the 512BB introduced in October 1976 at the Paris Auto Show. For the new car, Ferrari abandoned its long-standing practice of denoting a model by the capacity of an individual cylinder and adopted the Dino-type nomenclature where ‘512’ indicates 5-litres and 12 cylinders. The increase in engine size from the original Boxer’s 4.4-litres was made, not so much with increased power in mind, but more to enable the 512BB to meet increasingly stringent emissions targets without loss of performance. Displacement was increased by enlarging both bore and stroke, while in addition the compression ratio was raised and lubrication changed from wet to dry sump. Quoted power remained the same (but may have been more truthful) at 360bhp, and torque was improved to 332lb ft at 5000rpm which, coupled with revised gear ratios, made the 512 more tractable. Styling changes were subtle, with a small chin spoiler added to the nose, NACA ducts added in front of the rear wheels, slightly bigger rear arches to accommodate larger rear wheels, and finally, four rear tail lights replaced the six on the 365. This Ferrari 512 BB was supplied to Adplas Ltd of London by Cooper Car Sales of Leicestershire, in 1977 finished in Rosso over Nero, with Nero upholstery, a classic colour combination for these cars. It’s set off by an unmarked set of traditional Cromodoras with three-eared spinners wearing lightly used Pirelli P4000s. The car sits well, looks fabulous and sounds equally as good. Ferrari only built 101 in righthand drive and more than half of this number are with us no more which makes this a very rare car. The car has remained in the UK its entire life, all detailed

in the history file, and has covered just 33,500 warranted miles. Our vendor purchased the car in 2012 from William Loughran Ltd. who were offering it on behalf of a London based gentleman named Mr Chadwick who had purchased the car in Buckinghamshire privately from Mr Skipworth. Pleasingly, the list of keepers, all in the UK, is traceable right back to Adplas Ltd of London in 1977 when the Ferrari was brand new. Accompanying the car is the original order form, sales brochure, book pack and service book, tool kit, jack and bag, and a large collection of invoices. Definitely one for the collector. The 512 Berlinetta Boxer was an all-round sports and GT car, combining blistering performance with a plush leather interior, electric windows, and air conditioning. Not only does it remain one of the most striking designs to carry the Prancing Horse, but it also sits well as a very usable classic Ferrari and with those 12 gleaming, golf ball size, carb throats dominating the engine bay, represents the last of a rare breed, the carburetted flat-12 Ferrari.

• Full main dealer service history, latest by Graypaul Nottingham September 2018 at 24,778 • Just three former keepers and warranted mileage of 25,102 • Rosso Scuderia with contrasting Nero Hide • Race seats, Nero carpets, carbon driving zone, yellow dials, Nero brake calipers, Scuderia shields Manufactured from 2004 until 2009, the Ferrari F430 was the successor to the very successful 360M and, according to its creators, was at least 70% new compared with the previous model, itself a ground-breaker. Its aluminium structure was more rigid than the 360’s, it had a new engine, a new F1 gearbox, a new differential and a brand-new chassis, and although the styling is obviously reminiscent of the 360M’s, in reality, it’s pretty much a ground-up design. Largely the work of Pininfarina, although overseen by Ferrari’s design chief Frank Stephenson, the F430 still looks fresh today, more crisp-edged than the 360, with a strong hint of Enzo around the surface-erupting tail-lights. Its all-new 4.3-litre V8 engine, with four valves per cylinder instead of the 360’s five and chain camshaft drive instead of belts, with a consequent great reduction in service costs, has a variable-valve-timing system lifted straight from the Enzo’s V12, dry-sump lubrication, a very high compression ratio (11.3:1), a variable airflow plenum chamber and an enormous electronic brain making the decisions in the form of not one, but two, Bosch Motronic ME7 ECUs. At 483bhp it boasts 21% more power than the 360, exceeding even that of the mighty (and turbocharged) F40, whilst the torque spread is extraordinary for an engine keen to howl beyond 8500rpm. All these factors contribute to a 0-62mph time of just 3.7 seconds and a maximum speed in excess of 196mph. The advancements continued with the ‘Manettino’, the steering wheel-mounted selector for stability systems, damping, shift speed and throttle response. And there’s the E-diff, whose calibrations this alters, a clever, clutchcontrolled active differential that sorts out waywardness, not by inhibiting one rear wheel, but by pouring more torque into the other. Ferrari reckons it’s worth three seconds a lap at the Fiorano test track, and it certainly helps make the F430 a far more forgiving machine than the 360, and a car of supremely subtle and keen responses.

• Left-hand drive delivered new to Italy in 1990 and one of the 60 pre-production cars • Just 2,500 km from new and Classiche certified • Complete set of official Ferrari luggage, tools and jack and a full leather book pack • Now UK-registered and recently main dealer serviced • A best-of-breed example and one for the true collector The Ferrari 348 Series marked a radical departure in the way Maranello constructed its cars, replacing as they did a chassis of traditional steel tubes with a much stiffer monocoque structure and a tubular rear subframe. Suspension remained independent, front and rear, with wishbones, springs, telescopic shocks, anti-roll bars and revised geometry. The ventilated disc brakes were much larger than those of its predecessor, the Ferrari 328, and used anti-lock technology. A midship-mounted V8 returned, but it was larger and more powerful displacing 3405cc, mounted longitudinally and mated to a transverse gearbox with the displacement accounting for the new car’s Ferrari 348 designation. The suffix ‘TB’ was derived from the transverse gearbox and closed ‘Berlinetta’ body style. A higher compression ratio and updated fuel injection helped generate 300 horsepower, 30-40 more than the Ferrari 328, whilst a dry-sump oiling system gave the new Ferrari a lower centre of gravity. The 348 was the last design under the supervision of legendary chief stylist Leonardo Fioravanti, and a lot of the styling cues came from the Testarossa, particularly the side strakes, however, its forms were softer than those of the 328 but still curvaceous and with a longer wheelbase and wider track the interior had a bit more space.
In 2015, the previous owner sent the car back again to the aforementioned specialist for a full engine recommission and it was removed, dismantled, machined and cleaned before being reassembled and put back in the car. Photographs of this work and the €8,000 invoice are contained within the history file. ‘Ferrari Classiche’ has been prepared by Toni Auto of Maranello at a cost of €2,580 as shown by the invoice and certificate in the history file. This superb 348 TB is supplied with a complete set of official Ferrari luggage, tools and jack and a full leather book pack containing all the relevant literature. It has been privately owned by our vendor for the past couple of years as part of his significant private collection and during his ownership he has UK registered the 348 TB and sent it to H.R. Owen for a service with the bill on file. Presented in exceptional condition, this car is a rare opportunity to own a 2,500km from new 348 TB - a model that is now getting the attention that it richly deserves. This car ticks all the boxes and wouldn’t look out of place in any car collection.
This beautiful, left-hand drive, 348 TB was supplied new to Idropi SpA of Verona, Italy on the 1st February 1990 and is one of 60 pre-production cars that were released to Ferrari dealers. The only differences between this and subsequent production cars were that the battery is located in the rear of the car, not the front, the Prancing Horse is painted black as opposed to silver, and the underside of the bonnet is finished in red, whereas production cars were black. Finished in Rosso with a tan interior, this superb example has been used infrequently, as reflected in its incredibly low mileage. During its life, the previous owner was a member of the prestigious Automotoclub Storico Italiano, a well-respected car club in Italy. In September 2014, when the mileage was recorded at 2,490km, the car was sent to Toni Auto of Maranello to be serviced. + buyer’s premium of 15% including VAT @ 20%

• Only 3,445 miles from new in the hands of just two owners • Beautiful genuine condition; always garage-stored, complete service history • Recently professionally detailed and fully serviced (including belts) • The last of the purist’s V12 manual Ferraris? Real-world GT ability and a timeless modern classic Firmly placed in Ferrari’s history as one of their finest modern-era big GTs, the 550 Maranello’s combination of elegant lines and legendary front-mounted 12-cylinder engine, meant that these cars had the potential to become instant classics. Following in the footsteps and sharing the DNA of the 365 GTB/4 ‘Daytona’, the 550 Maranello is inevitability compared to its forbear and very few other frontengined Ferraris could have stood up to that comparison. Styled by Pininfarina, like its illustrious predecessor, the 550 Maranello was similarly proportioned, adopting the classical combination of long bonnet, small cabin and a truncated tail. Classic Ferrari styling cues include a bonnet air scoop and hot air outlets behind the front wheel-arches recalling the great Competizione Ferraris of the past, whilst the rear incorporates Ferrari’s characteristic twin circular lights. The heart of any Ferrari is its engine, and the 550 Maranello’s 48-valve, 5.5-litre V12 develops 485bhp at 7,000rpm. The powertrain was housed in a tubular steel chassis, to which was attached aluminium coachwork, whilst the allindependent suspension incorporated dual-mode (normal/ sports) damping, switch-selectable by the driver, which was complimented by speed-sensitive power-assisted steering. The six-speed manual gearbox compliments a slightly more even torque curve ensuring that the power delivery was a little less frenetic, whilst excellent weight distribution and delightful road manners make the 550 Maranello a truly refined driving machine, whilst still capable of almost 200mph. 550’s, along with the 355, are probably the pinnacle of that ‘analogue’ Ferrari period and although Dinos and Daytonas are undoubtedly sublime, when it comes to the combination of performance and looks combined with an engaging drive the 550 is a winner, especially given the current differential in market values compared to the older cars. Obviously, some modern cars may indeed see them off but 550’s are deceptively nimble and certainly rapid enough to exceed most people’s driving capabilities. They’re also a reasonable
68
Ferrari and Porsche Sale 2019
size and comfortable enough to hustle down your average twisty B-road without worrying whether you’ll make it through that gap. With styling that is ageing particularly well, a high-quality cabin, generous storage and an enormous 100-litre-plus fuel tank, the 550 Maranello really is the consummate ‘European Grand Tourer’ in the true Ferrari mould. The superb example presented here dates from 1998 and is a right-hand drive car built from new for the UK and finished in Rosso Corsa with a tan interior. It was supplied by Charles Hurst Ltd. (Ferrari) of Belfast in July 1998 to its first owner whose hectic international business life meant that it was used infrequently but always correctly garage stored. It was serviced by Charles Hurst Ltd. at 2,095 miles and 2,580 miles (belts replaced) and then again at 3,429 miles (belts replaced) by respected Ferrari specialists Keys Motorsport Ltd. of Towcester, who inspected the car and were impressed with its overall condition, noting its particularly sweetrunning engine and slick gear-change. However, its lack of regular use meant that its first owner decided to let it go and it was offered at Silverstone Auctions Ferrari Sale in May 2018 where its amazing condition and tiny mileage generated much appreciation. The car’s second owner obviously used the Ferrari gently as well, indicated by an invoice from Graypaul Nottingham in late October 2018 when the mileage is recorded as 3,437. Graypaul spent some time servicing the 550’s brakes and with new discs, pads, flexible pipes and a new distribution block the account was in the region of £3,200. At the time of photography, the odometer indicated 3,445 miles and, naturally, the service history is fully documented in the accompanying books and manuals. Patently immaculate, a new owner can derive real confidence from the glowing report from Keys Motorsport and the comprehensive brake service by Graypaul, both within the last 20 miles. The old adage “A busy Ferrari is a happy Ferrari” is still true and it would be nice to think that the car’s new owner would use this stunning 550 Grand Tourer for just that, a bit of ‘Grand Touring’.

• UK- supplied, right-hand drive, 68,000 miles showing supported by a comprehensive, detailed history folder • Presented in the rare and attractive colour combination of Argento silver over cream leather • The final variant of the 308, the QV featured, among other updates, four valves per cylinder and a power output of 240bhp • A usable classic sports car with beautiful styling and sparkling performance offering an exciting ownership experience October 1975 saw the debut at the Paris Motor Show of the most successful shape ever to wear the Cavallino Rampante emblem, the Ferrari 308, and during its comparatively long production run from 1975-89, over 20,000 examples of all engine types and sizes were produced. This new car was constructed on a traditional steel tube chassis, but its beautiful bodywork was initially manufactured in GRP and then, after two years, Scaglietti started making GTBs in steel. The 3-litre, four-cam V8 was more or less unchanged until March 1981 when Bosch fuel injection was added in place of the four double-choke Webers, reducing the engine’s power output significantly, although the final drive was altered on these cars to give similar acceleration to a carburettor car. Two years later, the 4-valve per cylinder Quattrovalvole or ‘QV’ model pushed output back up to 240 bhp restoring the status quo. European spec cars boasted higher horsepower than cars built for the American market and were lighter. Only 748 308 GTB/S QV models were produced and they are considered by many to be the most desirable of all the 308 variations as they are the fastest and most subtly styled with a deep front valance, racing mirrors and short lightweight bumpers. This UK-supplied right-hand drive QV presents superbly in the rare colour combination of Argento Silver with cream leather seats, setting the car apart from the usual red/cream, red/black Ferrari standard. This example is accompanied by a complete and detailed history folder supporting the current odometer reading of 68,000 miles including invoices and MOTs dating back to 1984. The original stamped service book is present with supporting paperwork up-to-date and the last major belt service was completed in October 2018, only 1,000 miles ago. In summary, it’s clear that this lovely Ferrari has been regularly enjoyed and only maintained by highly regarded marque

specialists. Although you wouldn’t consider 68,000 miles as particularly high for a 35-year-old car, many Ferrari experts believe it’s the cars that are used frequently that drive the best and tend to be more reliable and the old adage “A busy Ferrari is a happy Ferrari” has a lot of merit. One of only 233 right-hand drive examples produced, the 308 GTS QV with its timeless lines, rewarding handling, removable roof panel and that raspy V8 just behind you, offers the perfect way into classic Ferrari ownership.

• One of 306 UK-spec, 968 Club Sports ordered by Porsche GB and badged ‘Sport’ • Widely regarded as one of the finest handling frontengined, rear-wheel-drive cars ever made • Large history file, £5,240 engine rebuild at marque specialist at 99,693 miles • Four former keepers, 12 years current ownership, MOT until October 2019 • Thrilling to drive and rare as the proverbial ‘hen’s teeth’ Long-term Porsche devotees will be all too familiar with the 968, introduced to the world back in 1991 and which, as it turned out, was to be the end of the line for Porsche’s enduring front-engined four-cylinder model line. The 968 was developed directly from the 944, which meant adopting its well-honed and proven running gear, whilst presenting a fresh design aesthetic that made it feel like a significantly new model. The standard 968 was a great all-round sports car, but as a last ‘hurrah’ to this enduring lineage, Porsche wanted to create a car tailored more for the pure enthusiast and, in particular, one that would excel in competition. In late 1992, the 968 ‘Club Sport’ was introduced and, whilst it was mechanically identical to the standard 968 and shared the same 3.0-litre engine (240bhp and 225lb-ft of torque) and 6-speed gearbox, it differed in a number of important ways. This track-focused run-out model adopted the philosophy of ‘less is more’ by removing all luxury-related equipment from the basic build specification. With this no-frills approach, less weight and clever suspension, Porsche could now focus media attention on the Club Sport’s fast road and track abilities. As soon as the press got hold of the Club Sport and discovered what a brilliant drivers’ car it was, the credibility of the 968 went through the roof. Even Walter Röhrl reckoned it was the best handling car that Porsche made. The CS achieved a ‘Performance Car of The Year’ award in 1993 from Performance Car magazine in the UK. In total, just 1,923 CS examples were produced worldwide, of which only 179 were UK right-hand drive models, making the Club Sport a very rare Porsche indeed. There has been, over the years, a misconception in the motoring press that

Club Sports are only Club Sports if they have bucket-seats, wind-up windows, no sunroof, manual hatch, etc., however, the Club Sport was available to order with any number of options - and indeed it frequently was. It’s very common to see Club Sports with Recaro cloth comfort sport front seats, electric windows, sunroof, air conditioning, and even rear seats whilst still sporting the ‘Club Sport’ badge - especially in parts of Europe and Australia. However, for the UK market only, a further 306 Sport versions were commissioned by Porsche GB during 1994/1995 and these UK-only models retained all the performance upgrades of the Club Sport but added rear seats, more comfortable front seats and electric windows. Badged as a ‘968 Sport’ in the UK, all are genuine ‘P35 Club Sports’ produced in Zuffenhausen. On offer at ‘No Reserve’ this smart 968 Sport is indeed one of those cars commissioned by Porsche GB and was acquired by our vendor on 10th November 2006 with four former keepers prior to that. Dating from 1994, this example is finished in Grand Prix White and is fitted as standard with central locking, electric tailgate release, electric windows, electric mirrors, rear seats and black cloth seats. From the car’s history file we can see that it had a £5,240 engine rebuild at a marque specialist at 99,693 miles and that it has been maintained by Two Plus Two Ltd. since 2006 with all the relevant invoices since then. The current indicated mileage is 127,382 and it has recently benefited from a mechanical check with oil, filter and plug change and a new battery. The MOT is valid until October 2019 and, supplied with its original manuals and service records, this lovely ‘Sport’ may turn out to be the bargain of the sale.

• The ‘definitive’ Porsche style of the 1980s • A C16, 3.2 with good service history • In-vogue Targa model in Guards Red with black sport seats • Lots of original features including brass door pins, spec sticker under bonnet etc. • Great driving example, with a strong and well-presented engine The 3.2 Carrera is revered as the ultimate development of the original 911 that first appeared in 1963. These final cars (before being replaced by the more complicated 964) were the most flexible and usable of Butzi Porsche’s original design. Launched in 1984 and reviving the ‘Carrera’ name for the first time since 1977, these were the ultimate 1980’s sports cars. The all-alloy flat-six engine, which had been fuel injected since 1971, received a final stretch to 3,164cc, giving torque-rich 231 bhp - enough to propel the lithe and slippery Coupé to over 150 mph, with 0-60 mph coming up in 5.6 seconds. All 3.2 Carreras feature galvanised bodies, which together with Porsche’s legendary build quality, ensure that these classics are long-lasting.
The interior specification of the car is unusual in having leather door cards and armrests, which were originally ‘Can-Can’ Red (a very 1980’s Porsche colour!), together with the gear lever gaiter. However, a previous owner decided to paint over them with black varnish! The current owner was in the process of refurbishing these areas, but a move abroad meant this work stalled. Likewise, there are other areas where a new owner could look to add value, including the driver’s seat. There are some original features still present, with the correct Blaupunkt radio/cassette player, unpainted brass door pins, the spec sticker under the bonnet, and the correct leather-trimmed carpet in the luggage area. The engine bay and front luggage area (in the nose and under carpet) are very presentable and appear unmolested and the Targa roof is also in good condition and works/fits well. This is a very usable classic 3.2, which is strong in many important areas but is offered at a tempting estimate to allow for some improvements. This is simply a genuine example of one of the most popular and sought-after Porsche models.
The car presented here is a UK-supplied, right-hand drive 1986 Porsche 911 Carrera 3.2 Sport Targa. It was initially registered in the UK on the 1st July 1986, making it part of a late batch of cars fitted with the venerable 915 5-speed gearbox which, when used properly and up to temperature, is a much-revered means of swapping cogs. This classic Porsche is finished in Guards Red, complimented by a full black leather interior and is a standard factory ‘Sport’ model with Fuchs alloy wheels, front and rear spoilers, electric pack and sports seats. The car comes with a comprehensive history file, including lots of invoices for servicing and maintenance as evidenced by the willingness with which it starts and the healthy oil pressure. The car has recently benefited from new stainlesssteel heat exchangers and silencers only last year, whilst being shod with a new set of Continental tyres less than 250 miles ago.

• Highly revered as one of the best-handling Porsche models ever • Track-focused run-out model adopting the philosophy of ‘less is more’ • Striking in Grand Prix White with red decals - the definitive ‘special’ Porsche livery • Proper CS lightweight specification, with the addition of a sunroof • Subtle driver-focused enhancements including ‘Variant 3’ coil-over suspension & M030 anti-roll bars and bushes • Maintained by renowned marque specialists Long-term Porsche devotees will be all too familiar with the 968, introduced to the world back in 1991, and as it turned out, was to be the end of the line for Porsche’s enduring front-engined four-cylinder model line. The 968 was developed directly from the 944, which meant adopting its well-honed and well-proven running gear, whilst presenting a fresh design aesthetic that made it feel like a significantly new model. The standard 968 was a great all-round sports car, but as a last ‘hurrah’ to this enduring lineage Porsche wanted to create a car tailored more for the pure enthusiast and, in particular, one that would excel in competition. In late 1992, the 968 ‘Club Sport’ was introduced and, whilst it was mechanically identical to the standard 968 and shared the same 3.0-litre engine (producing 225lb-ft of torque and 240bhp) and 6-speed gearbox, it differed in a number of important ways. This track-focused run-out model adopted the philosophy of ‘less is more’ by removing all luxury-related equipment from the basic build specification. With the no-frills approach, less weight, and clever suspension, Porsche could now focus media attention on the Club Sport’s fast road and track abilities. As soon as the press got hold of the Club Sport and discovered what a brilliant drivers’ car it was, the credibility of the 968 went through the roof. Even Walter Röhrl reckoned it was the best handling car that Porsche made. The CS achieved a ‘Performance Car of The Year’ award in 1993 from Performance Car magazine in the UK.

In total, just 1,923 CS examples were produced worldwide, of which only 179 were UK right-hand drive models, making the Club Sport a very rare Porsche indeed. The car presented here is a C16 (UK-delivered) righthand drive 1994 Porsche 968 Club Sport. Its CS status is confirmed by its specification and chassis number and this striking example, in the much sought-after combination of Grand Prix White paintwork with red decals, was first registered on the 30th September 1994. This particular CS was ordered new with all the CS lightweight elements and an electric sunroof. Due to a move abroad, our fastidious car-enthusiast vendor is now selling what he has described as the ‘‘best handling car that I have ever driven on the road to date.’’ Prior to him buying the car, a previous owner upgraded it with a ‘Variant 3’ coil-over suspension system (adjustable Koni units at the rear) including rear torsion bar reset, M030 anti-roll bars and bushes and a ‘Big Red’ brake conversion on the front wheels, whilst the chassis was set up by ‘Centre Gravity’ for fast road/track day use. Having been maintained by EMC Motorsport (a 968 specialist) and PCT in Coventry, this car is in particularly fine fettle. Recent maintenance includes new timing belts and tensioners (11,000 miles ago), plus the balancer shaft seals were replaced, together with the tensioners, just 250 miles ago. The car has a fully stamped service history, verifying the indicated 98,000 miles. At the time of writing, our vendor has unfortunately misplaced the physical paperwork relating to the car, but sensibly photocopied the service history and some MOTs, which are provided on a memory stick. The 944, the 968 and even the 928 are seeing their values rise in the wake of the ‘911 explosion’ and front-engined Porsches are having the Renaissance they richly deserve. This is a simply super example of arguably the most coveted front-engined Porsche model and, competitively guided, opens the door into a very exclusive club.

• Built by respected marque specialist RPM Technik as a race or distance rally car • RS-looking replica featuring a ducktail, fibreglass doors & bumpers and lightweight roof panel • Good history file including old MSA logbooks, a UK V5c and MOT’d until January 2020 • A most useable and versatile car that could have a number of uses; track days, sprint, circuit racing or perhaps endurance and long-distance rallying In 1978, Porsche introduced their latest development of the 911, christened the ‘911 SC’ (Super Carrera) powered by a 3.0-litre six-cylinder engine with Bosch K-Jetronic fuel injection and a five-speed, 915 transmission. Power output was initially 180bhp, later 188bhp and subsequently, in 1981, it was increased to a heady 204bhp. 1979 was the year that Porsche had envisioned that their new 928 would replace the 911, however, 911 sales remained so strong that Porsche revised its strategy and decided to inject new life into their core model. We are pleased to offer this remarkable Guards Red 1982 Porsche 911 3.0 SC which started life as a standard road car before being completely stripped and rebuilt for circuit racing by RPM Technik for their own use. Campaigned on track with success, it was then sold to a Mr D. Buck who had RPM rebuild it to compete in the Tour Britannia 2012. A sixpoint, welded-in Custom Cages roll cage was installed, not only for safety but to help stiffen the shell. To reduce weight further, the car was fitted with fibreglass doors, fibreglass front and rear bumpers, Plexiglass windows, RS ducktail and a lightweight roof panel. Inside the cockpit, Recaro bucket seats are fitted with Schroth harnesses, along with a Monit G100 GPS trip computer and a Lifeline fire extinguisher. Prospective buyers should satisfy themselves as to the currency and legality of all safety equipment in this car.
with Elephant ‘quick-change’ plates and also runs a limitedslip differential. The car wasn’t quite ready in time for the 2012 Tour Britannia, but it was certainly ready the following year, and it went on to win the Targa Class in 2013. Scrutineering stickers on the cage show that it also competed at the Fat Albert Stages Rally in 2016 and the Winter Raid Rallye International in 2017. Accompanying the car is a comprehensive history file including two previous MSA logbooks, a UK V5c and an MOT valid until January 2020, along with a host of invoices. This car was built by respected marque specialists who have many years of motorsport to their name and is an incredibly versatile 911 that would be equally at home on track days, circuit racing with 750 Motor Club, or possibly a Porsche Club Championship entrant? The two rally lamps adorning the front of the car would suggest it would certainly feel at home on the Tour Britannia, a HERO Rally or the Winter Raid Rallye Series. Looking, every inch, like the legendary RSL/R of 1973, but guided at less than 10% of an original, this well-built, beautifully presented 911 SC offers serious fun and real driving pleasure whether on the road or in competition which, basically, is what they were designed for in the first place.
At the time of the build, the 3.0 engine was also rebuilt, lightened and balanced with all new internals, a 964 C2 camshaft and a competition exhaust, resulting in a freerevving engine that feels suited to either circuit or rally use. The 5-speed manual 915 gearbox is fitted with a Wevo 915 short shifter allowing smoother and faster gear changes – imperative for competition use. The car has uprated suspension which is adjustable at the rear having been fitted

• UK-supplied (C16-spec) on the 30th September 2010 as a rare ‘S’ variant of the formidable 997 Turbo • 3,800cc DOHC twin-turbo flat 6-cylinder producing 530 bhp at 6,000 rpm via the 7-Speed PDK Transaxle • Handsomely finished in the rare colour of Rubin Red Metallic a with well-optioned black leather interior • Diligently maintained by Porsche main dealers, most recently in January 2019 when two new tyres were fitted • With just 25,500 miles the car is offered from the private collection of a long-term Silverstone Auctions client • Presented to auction in superb order with a history file, service book, tool kits, fresh MOT and UK V5c The facelifted version of Porsche’s 997 Turbo was unveiled at the 2009 Frankfurt Auto Show. It was fitted with a completely new 3.8-litre engine generating a maximum power output of 530bhp, thanks to revised Borg-Warner variable turbine geometry (VTG) turbochargers, whilst the optional 7-speed PDK dual-clutch gearbox replaced the Tiptronic. With PDK and the also optional Sport-Chrono package, which includes the availability of electronically controlled launch control and an over-boost function for temporarily increasing the turbopressure, Porsche claimed the 911 Turbo would accelerate from 0–62 mph in 3.4 seconds and before reaching a top speed of a staggering 194 mph. Porsche has traditionally raised the appeal of the 911 Turbo during the latter part of its lifecycle with a heavily optioned ‘S’ model and the 997 Turbo is no exception. The twinturbocharged 3.8-litre engine of the regular Turbo model has been subtly tweaked to boost performance and receives a nominal 1.0 bar of boost (against 0.8 bar on the standard version) along with lightly modified turbocharger vanes and a carbon fibre air manifold to endow the S with 530bhp and a continuous (not over-boosted) 516lb ft of torque. That’s 30bhp and 37lb ft more than the Turbo resulting in a classleading (at the time) 0-62 mph in 3.1 seconds although the top speed remained unchanged. This powerful, second generation, 997 Turbo S was delivered through Porsche Centre Reading on the 30th September 2010 resplendent in the rare colour of Rubin Red Metallic. Combined with the very well optioned black leather

This Turbo S has been looked after by authorised Porsche service centres at the following intervals: 22/10/2012 Porsche Centre West London at 8,094 miles 22/07/2015 Porsche Centre Solihull at 13,429 miles 27/01/2017 Porsche Centre Brooklands, Surrey at 18,683 miles 25/01/2019 Porsche Centre Brooklands, Surrey at 25,298 miles Purchased by our vendor, a long-standing and regular customer of Silverstone Auctions, on the 30th August 2017 the Turbo S joined a varied stable that included a Ferrari FF and Astons DB5, DB6 and V8 Volante. With business and charity commitments keeping him busy, the car has only travelled some 4,000 miles in his ownership. Now showing 25,393 miles, this pristine Porsche is presented to auction in superb order with a history file, service book, tool kits, fresh MOT, UK V5c and a Porsche Approved Warranty until 27th January 2020. Combining earth-shattering performance with genuine day-to-day usability, the Turbo S is untouchable, and in this delightful colour combination and sensibly guided, appears irresistible.

Fresh MOT valid until August 2020 • Supplied with toolkit, handbooks, ‘GT’ supplementary manual, service records, spare key • Competitively guided and opens the door into a very exclusive club of Porsche ownership Porsche’s intended replacement for the 911 may not have achieved that particular goal, but it wasn’t for a lack of performance or technological wizardry. An alloy V8 was attached to a rear-mounted gearbox, and the galvanised body had aluminium doors and bonnet, between bodycoloured plastic bumpers - pretty radical for the period. The 928 was launched to a fanfare and surprised many by being named European Car of the Year, an award that traditionally went to worthy, but dull, family hatchbacks. Critics immediately recognised the advances inherent in the 928 over the 911, and the car was universally praised as one of the greatest GT cars of all time. It handled, it was quick, it looked fantastic and it was comfortable. With the 928, Porsche created a serious long distance grand-touring car that could also tackle twisting B-roads with ease, thanks to super-direct steering, 50/50 weight distribution and a clever Weissach rear axle that kept the car firmly planted. Many road testers found that their nerve ran out long before the 928’s grip. Porsche continuously developed their rangetopper throughout its production life, culminating with the launch of the S4 in 1987, which differed slightly from the earlier Series cars with its smoothed-off front and rear bumpers, larger rear spoiler, more interior equipment and a 5.0 litre version of the V8 engine developing 316bhp.

This fabulous, right-hand drive, UK-spec, 928 GT was supplied new by Malaya Garage (Porsche) on October the 12th 1989 (1990 model year) in Forest Green Metallic (L22E) which, at the time, was only available to special order. It was further specified with a limited-slip differential, sports chassis, and the GT-spec 16” Club Sport forged alloys. Future occupants were to benefit from cream leather sports seats, a sunroof, air conditioning and the top of the range Blaupunkt Toronto SQR 46 cassette-radio. This lovely car has been enjoyed by five recorded keepers and the odometer currently indicates 37,050 miles.

The toolkit is present as are the complement of handbooks, 928 GT supplementary manual, the original service maintenance book, the maintenance record folder and a spare key. The 928 GT is a rare car and this superb example, with its low mileage and sophisticated colour combination, is bound to attract considerable interest.

• Originally sold in 1959 in left-hand drive by Porsche Car Pacific Inc. San Francisco • Finished in black with a red leather interior, this is the earlier ‘T5’ body • Full restoration by marque specialists Curves Bodywork of Essex ten years ago • Supplied with a history file documenting its restoration and supplied with a UK V5c The 356 is acknowledged as Porsche’s first venture into production and was a lightweight and nimble rear-engined, rear-wheel-drive, two-door sporting car available in hardtop Coupé and open configurations. Engineering and design innovations continued during the years of manufacture, contributing to its motorsports success and its popularity as a road car. The model was created by Ferdinand “Ferry” Porsche (son of Dr.Ing. Ferdinand Porsche, founder of the company), based on an original design by Porsche employee Erwin Komenda, and initially its mechanicals (including engine, suspension, and chassis) were derived from the basic Volkswagen Beetle, a product of his Father’s fertile imagination. Porsche continued to develop and refine the 356 with a focus on performance, and by the late 1950s fewer parts were shared with its pedestrian cousin, and increasing success in competition and its availability worldwide resulted in the distinctive little car, in all its iterations, finding over 76,000 homes between 1948 and 1966. Today, the Porsche 356 is a highly regarded collector’s car. According to its Porsche Certificate of Authenticity, the 356B T5 on offer here was originally sold by Porsche Cars Pacific Inc. San Francisco, California in 1959 finished in Heron Grey with a red leatherette interior. Imported to the UK in 1976, much of its history is unknown until it became the subject of a full restoration by well-known marque specialist Curves Bodywork in Essex. Originally undertaken to showcase their work, with all that implies in terms of quality, the car has since been shown at various Porsche club meets, trips to the Le Mans Classic and Reims. During the restoration process, the body was taken back to bare metal revealing a good shell, the only replacement sections required being a front clip and the boot floor, before repainting in base black with clear coat. Photographs documenting the restoration do exist and will be available

Ferrari and Porsche Sale 2019
for any potential purchaser to view. At the same time, the running gear was completely dismantled, cleaned and media blasted, repainted, electroplated and refitted with new hardware and consumables as required. The red leatherette interior, believed to be surviving from an earlier restoration in the late 1970’s, was in excellent condition and was reinstated without requiring attention, however, a completely new carpet set was fitted. All rubber seals were replaced throughout and all the brightwork was restored or replaced as appropriate. The original engine was fully stripped and rebuilt with replacement parts as deemed necessary including a full carburettor rebuild and all ancillary items stripped, painted, plated or replaced. Apart from a colour change to its current black, a front disc conversion and a 12V battery conversion the car remains completely standard. The current private owner has had much enjoyment from his little Porsche and is now ready to pass it on to another owner. At today’s sensible estimate, this is a super opportunity.

Initially, Option M491 was only available on a Coupé and had to be ordered through the ‘Special Wishes’ program, but was later extended to include the Targa and Cabriolet in 1985, before becoming an official model available from dealers in 1986. From 1987 onwards these dramatic versions were officially known as SSE (Supersport Equipment), and the cars in this final three-year run-up until 1989 were fitted with the more user-friendly G50 Getrag gearbox and a hydraulic clutch. ‘M491’ was not just a sop to the excesses of the 1980’s, with flared arches evoking the appearance of some dramatic Porsche models from the past, but was a popular option offering the ‘macho’ good looks of the Turbo without the mechanical complexities. However, it was not cheap adding over £10,000 to the cost of a standard variant by the end of the model’s life in 1989, possibly explaining the relatively small build numbers. The SSE spec also included a limitedslip differential, the stiffer suspension and superior braking system from the 930 Turbo, a wrap-around deep chinspoiler, the famous ‘tea-tray’ rear spoiler, and wider Fuchs alloy wheels. The rarity of Supersport models is undeniable, especially in right-hand drive, but official figures are hard to come by as technically the ‘Turbo-look’ option was, just that, an option and not a Type so records do not exist but a respected source quotes that just 651 M491 cars (including all Coupés, Targas and Cabriolets) were manufactured between 1984 and 1989 with only 75 of those being in C16 UK-spec with 39 of those being Cabriolets. + buyer’s premium of 15% including VAT @ 20%
This lovely Supersport Cabriolet is a C16, UK, right-hand drive car (1 of 39) and was supplied to its first owner by Lancaster Porsche during January 1988. It’s finished in the classic eighties Porsche colour of Guards Red but the interior is unusual having been selected from the factory ‘Special Wishes Program’. It looks fabulous in Linen leather and features a black leather dash top, leather knee rolls, leather to the door panels, armrests and rear seats, full leather front seats piped in red with eight-way electric adjustment all topped off with a Special Wishes goldembellished gear lever knob. To differentiate the car a little further it was dealer-fitted with the front air dam and sideskirts from the 930 SE. In addition to the Supersport’s standard features, which include the manual G50 gearbox, Fuchs alloy wheels, electric door mirrors, power steering, air conditioning, CD Player, central locking, electric windows, lumbar support and an alarm this car was further optioned with (490) sound system - high fidelity package with eight speakers, (494) Amplifier, (330) Blaupunkt Toronto SQR 46cassette-radio and (975) Luggage compartment velour carpet. It benefits from a comprehensive maintenance record supporting the indicated mileage of 73,806 which includes a documented engine refresh carried out by Porsche Cambridge in 2010 at 67,542 miles. The car has covered a little over 6,000 miles in the last nine years and has recently been serviced (73,714-less than 100 miles ago) and the MOT is valid until August 2020. It will be accompanied by its original tool roll, aluminium spare wheel (correct for a Supersport), a second key, the Certificate of Authenticity, handbooks, service book and the history file. As one of only thirty-nine, UK Supersport Cabriolets are rare, however, with its SE aerodynamics and the bespoke Special Wishes interior, this lovely 911 is undoubtedly unique.

There has been, over the years, a misconception in the motoring press that Club Sports are only Club Sports if they have bucket-seats, wind-up windows, no sunroof, manual hatch, etc., however,

Ferrari and Porsche Sale 2019
the Club Sport was available to order with any number of options-and indeed it frequently was. It’s very common to see Club Sports with Recaro cloth comfort sport front seats, electric windows, sunroof, air conditioning, and even rear seats whilst still sporting the ‘Club Sport’ badge. However, the first owner of this smart Grand Prix White 968CS was not tempted by the options list and was obviously keen not to dilute its original sporting intent with mere creature comforts. It was delivered by Evans Halshaw Porsche on 6th May 1993 with the optimum specification of factory M030 suspension, adjustable roll bar, larger brakes, and the M220 limited-slip differential. The only other boxes ticked were the deletion of the extended rear shelf, deletion of the decals and the fitting of a set of Sabelt four-point harnesses. It remained with its original keeper until 2014 when his advancing years precluded the Porsche’s further use but during his ownership he obviously enjoyed utilising the car’s legendary handling and enhanced it further with additional front suspension upper and lower bracing bars, rose-jointed rear anti-roll bar links, a lightweight flywheel, a lightweight exhaust system and he upgraded the Koni suspension to the more sophisticated KW Variant 3 adjustable coil-overs offering better damping and more adjustability. (The original M030 Koni shock absorbers have been rebuilt by Koni and are supplied with the car). This lovely C16, UK-spec, right-hand drive Club Sport was recently serviced by a marque specialist, and the attention included replacing the cambelt and balance belt, four new Michelin Pilot Sport tyres and a fresh MOT. The current indicated mileage is 43,300 and it’s accompanied by its original handbook, service book, wallet, initial order, tool roll and a large history file. With its optimum specification and subtle handling enhancements, this sparkling little Club Sport is unashamedly driver-focused which, we would suggest, is exactly what Porsche had in mind.

1994 Porsche 911 (964) Speedster - Ex-Dario Franchitti
2.30pm The Porsche Sale
• Formerly owned by multiple IndyCar Series Champion and Indy 500 winner Dario Franchitti • One of just 469 produced for the North American market and finished in Guards Red with grey/black bucket seats • In outstanding condition and showing just 19,279 miles on the odometer – MOT’d until 2nd July 2020 • Supplied with its Porsche Certificate of Authenticity, a UK V5c, original books, spare key and a copy of the original sales invoice A legend in its own right, the ‘Speedster’ name first adorned the Porsche 356 in 1954 as a roadster designed for the West Coast American car scene. The vision of the then importer Max Hoffman, the little Speedster became an instant hit on the racing circuits due to its light weight and nimble handling.
2013 season, he moved back to the UK and hence this beautiful Speedster made the journey across the pond and was registered with the DVLA to Mr Franchitti’s address in the Home Counties. The condition of this car remains outstanding and contained in the owner’s file is the Porsche Certificate of Authenticity, its original marketing brochure, the spare key, its original book pack including the service book and a copy of the original sales invoice. The sticker under the bonnet also remains intact. With just under 1,000 of these 964 Speedsters produced and only 469 cars made for the North American market so, this 5-speed manual car is incredibly rare and is supplied with a UK V5c and an MOT Certificate valid until 2nd July 2020. With its excellent provenance, super condition and just 19,279 miles on the odometer, this is a rare Porsche that is worthy of consideration by any serious Porsche collector.
It wasn’t until some years later in 1989 that the Speedster name made a comeback in the form of the 911 Carrera 3.2, with its raked-back aluminium windscreen, 3 inches lower than the standard car and its double hump clamshell fibreglass tonneau cover. In 1994 the Speedster option was available once again, this time on the ‘964’ model 911, which also had upgrades including power-steering, ABS, coil springs on the front suspension, and an electric rear spoiler on the engine cover. Fewer than 1,000 versions of the 964 Speedsters were produced, with only 469 being made for the North American market. We are pleased to offer this particular Porsche 911 (964) Speedster supplied new through Porsche Hinsdale of Illinois on 25th February 1994 to a Mr Tony Morelli. Finished in Guards Red with grey/black ‘RS’ bucket seats other options at the time included; 17” alloy ‘Cup’ wheels, a locking differential (40%), a Porsche CR-1 radio, a luggage compartment lined in velour, a centre-mounted high rear brake light and air-conditioning. The car was then purchased in 2010 by multiple IndyCar Series Champion and Indy 500 winner, Dario Franchitti, who kept it in America whilst he was driving for Chip Ganassi Racing - a team with which he won the Championship three times.

• A C16 UK-supplied right-hand drive Supersport Cabriolet • Finished in black with a cream leather interior piped black, black hood and tonneau cover • Recent recipient of a service totalling £5,500 at a marque specialist to include; a new clutch, exhaust, fuel tank and fuel pump • Supplied with a UK V5c, tools and service book, this three-owner car is now showing just 50,435 miles Introduced in 1984 and possibly the ultimate version of the 3.2 Carrera was the ‘Option M491-Turbo-look’ or ‘Supersport’ as it later became known in the UK. Initially, Option M491 was only available on a Coupé and had to be ordered through the “Special Wishes” program, but was later extended to include the Targa and Cabriolet in 1985, before becoming an official model available from dealers in 1986. ‘M491’ was not just a sop to the excesses of the 1980’s, with flared arches evoking the appearance of some dramatic Porsche models from the past, but was a popular option offering the ‘macho’ good looks of the Turbo without the mechanical complexities. However, it was not cheap adding over £10,000 to the cost of a standard variant by the end of the model’s life in 1989, possibly explaining the relatively small build numbers. The Supersport spec also included a limited-slip differential, the stiffer suspension and superior braking system from the 930 Turbo, a wrap-around deep chin-spoiler, the famous ‘tea-tray’ rear spoiler, and wider Fuchs alloy wheels. The rarity of Supersport models is undeniable, especially in right-hand drive, but official figures are hard to come by as technically the ‘Turbo-look’ option was, just that, an option and not a type so records do not exist but a respected source quotes that just 651 M491 cars (including all Coupés, Targas and Cabriolets) were manufactured between 1984 and 1989 with only 75 of those being in C16 UK-spec and half of those were Cabriolets. According to the ‘Turbo-look Register’, there are currently 27 UK-owned Supersport Cabs of which only five are finished in black. Offered here is a beautiful UK-supplied, right-hand drive (C16) Porsche 911 Carrera 3.2 Supersport registered to it first owner on 1st March 1986.

Having covered just 50,435 miles this example has been enjoyed by just three keepers and, as a result, appears in superb order. It’s clear that each owner has cosseted the car, and most recently it has been fitted with a new fuel tank and pump, exhaust and clutch resulting in an invoice for £5,500 from a Porsche marque specialist. Supplied with a UK V5c, its tools, invoices and original service book, low-owner examples like this rarely come to market especially one of only reportedly five in black – viewing is highly recommended.

• Supplied with a UK V5c, its previous State of Indiana Title and a Porsche Certificate of Authenticity Introduced at the 1963 Frankfurt Motor Show the basic Porsche 911 design would run virtually unchanged for twenty-nine years. Ferdinand Porsche had been working on the design since the late fifties as a better performing replacement for the 356. Today his design still underpins the production of Porsche AG of Stuttgart. Before long the merits of using the Porsche 911 in competitive Motorsport became apparent and history records it as one of the most successful campaigners of all time. From the 24 Hours of Le Mans to grass-roots Motorsport, the 911 was simply the car to have. For 1970, the ‘C-Series’ 911 was introduced with a larger bore to give a capacity of 2165cc, producing 125bhp and now badged as a “T”. Alterations to the suspension geometry improved the handling and added a bit more weight to the steering feel. The standard Fuchs alloy wheels gained a bit of girth and were now six inches wide. Offered here is a left-hand drive Porsche 911T 2.2 delivered to it first owner in the United States in 1970. The car is finished in its original colours and arguably one of the most beautiful colour combinations of Irish Green over a tan leatherette interior. Options at the time included ‘comfort equipment’ and a tinted windshield. The car was imported into the UK in 2017 and registered with the DVLA obtaining a UK V5c. Most recently the body was attended to, with new floors and a full repaint in its original colour. At the same time, the interior was smartened up with new upholstery and the engine received a tune-up. The Fuchs wheels are wearing a set of new tyres giving it the classic Porsche stance. Included in the sale is the owner’s manual, jack and spare tyre along with the Porsche Certificate of Authenticity. Early 911s possess a certain purity of line, particularly in bright colours, a complete world away from the aerodynamic extravagances of the eighties and nineties, and in terms of style, it’s the early cars that engender the most appreciative + buyer’s premium of 15% including VAT @ 20%

• A rare short-wheelbase model delivered new through Porsche Netherlands • Finished in its original colours of Polo Red over black leatherette interior • Recent refurbishment included fresh paint, a new interior and an engine and gearbox rebuild • Supplied with a NOVA reference number for a prospective buyer to begin the registration process • Sympathetically refreshed, this is a really lovely example of where it all began Porsche’s long-running and much-loved 911 sports car first appeared at the 1963 Frankfurt Show as the ‘901’, but shortly after production proper commenced in 1964 had become the ‘911’ following Peugeot’s complaints about the use of ‘0’ model numbers. The preceding Type 356’s rearengined layout was retained but the 911 switched to unitary construction for the bodyshell and dropped the 356’s VWbased suspension in favour of a more modern McPherson strut and trailing arm arrangement. In its first incarnation, Porsche’s single-overhead-camshaft, air-cooled flat-six engine displaced 1,991cc. The first of countless upgrades to the perennial 911 came in 1966, two years after production had commenced, with the introduction of the 911S and in 1967 the 911T (Touring) was introduced as a new 2.0-litre model. Further revisions were made in 1969 when the 911’s wheelbase had been extended by 57mm. Offered here is a 1968 Porsche 911T SWB produced in June 1968 and sold new through Porsche Netherlands. Its original colour scheme was Polo Red and a black leatherette interior – the same combination it wears today. Most recently the car has been the recipient of a full repaint and brand new interior. At the same time the engine and gearbox were rebuilt – however, the car no longer has its original engine and instead is fitted with a later, type-correct, 1969 engine. Supplied with a Porsche Certificate of Authenticity, the car was recently imported to the UK and hence is supplied with a NOVA reference number ready for a prospective buyer to MOT the car before beginning the registration process with the DVLA to obtain a UK V5c. Rarely do short-wheelbase 911s come to market, and this

substantial history folder. Recent work includes having the wheels professionally refinished, a full service and the car is offered with a clean MOT expiring on 16 August 2020. Here is an opportunity to own a sparkling 930 Turbo wearing Martini stripes that certainly makes it stand out from the crowd. Sure to be the talk of every classic car show, this eyecatching Turbo really is a ‘snapshot’ of Porsche’s long-term partnership with Martini and Rossi.
Having accrued a wealth of experience of turbocharging air-cooled engines from their racing program, it seemed to make perfect sense for Porsche to utilise that knowledge by applying it to their famous rear-engined sports car, and consequently, at the 1973 Paris motor show, they unveiled a prototype turbocharged 911, the ‘Type 930’. Porsche engineers tested both the 2.7 and 3.0-litre engines, with the 3.0 air-cooled flat-six (that could trace its origins back to the 911 RSR) being chosen as it produced more torque low down. By attaching a Kühnle, Kopp and Kausch (KKK) turbocharger, the 930 was the most powerful production Porsche thus far and, suddenly, the 911 was a supercar. The production-ready 911 Turbo was shown at the Paris show in autumn 1974 and not surprisingly in an era when turbocharging was seen as rather exotic, captivated the world’s motoring press. Rightly, it was billed as a supremely fast and luxurious flagship model, combining ballistic performance and head-turning looks with air conditioning, electric windows and other creature comforts. In 1977/1978, capacity went up from 3.0 to 3.3 litres and an air-to-air intercooler was positioned under the rear spoiler. The spoiler was re-profiled and raised slightly to make room for the intercooler assembly and this meant saying goodbye to the ‘whale-tail’ and welcoming the equally distinctive ‘teatray’. First registered on 12 June 1980, this UK, right-hand drive, 4-speed Porsche 911 Turbo was, according to documents within the history file, supplied by Gordon Ramsey Ltd, Newcastle. An official letter from the Porsche Club Great Britain addressed to a previous keeper confirms that this car is recognised as an original Martini car and as such is a rather desirable model. Now showing 102,100 miles, the car presents very well having been subject to a fairly recent repaint and regularly maintained to a very high standard supported by invoices and documents found within the

Easily distinguishable by its stylish Fuchs five-spoked alloy wheels, the ‘S’ featured a heavily revised engine producing 160bhp. In 1967 the 911T (Touring) was introduced as a new base model, initially with the 2.0-litre engine in 110bhp form before gaining the 2.2-litre unit along with the rest of the range in 1969, by which time the 911’s wheelbase had been extended by 57mm to tame the occasionally wayward handling. By this time the models on offer had stabilised at three: the entrylevel 911T, middle-ranking 911E and top-of-the-range 911S, all of which were available as either a closed Coupé or Targa convertible. With the 2.2-litre engine’s arrival, a common type of cylinder head was adopted, the differing power outputs being determined principally by valve timing rather than valve sizes as had been the case hitherto. In 1972 all 911 variants received the 2,341cc (nominally 2.4-litre) unit, which in ‘T’ specification produced a maximum of 130bhp, the same output as the original 911 of 1963. Offered here is a left-hand drive, Porsche 911T 2.4 delivered to its first owner in the United States in 1973. Thought to have spent much of its life in California, this car is finished in the period colour of Sepia Brown (Code 415 for ‘73) with black upholstery and tan carpets. Other options at the time included a manual antenna, loudspeaker and noise suppression, tinted glass, and Pirelli tyres. The car was recently imported into the UK and hence is supplied with a NOVA reference number and a copy of its State of Ohio title ready for a prospective buyer to MOT the car before beginning the registration process with the DVLA. Recently re-painted in its original colour, the interior has benefitted from new carpets, new headlining, seat covers
92

and door panels. At the same time, the engine was taken apart and resealed with new piston rings, new pistons and cylinders. Supplied with a Porsche Certificate of Authenticity confirming that the engine is the original unit, this 911T is now showing 51,062 miles on the odometer (not warranted). This is a really smart 911 with excellent paint, good shut lines, tight rubbers and very good brightwork. The engine bay looks very tidy and the interior is a credit to the car with it’s traditional incomprehensibly placed controls and early Blaupunkt stereo. The colour may not be everyone’s cup of tea (on reflection they are about the same colour) but, in the early seventies, this was a particularly trendy hue. About three years ago these early cars were reaching some very high numbers but, thankfully, the market has returned to more sensible levels and cars like this can be bought to use and enjoy having fun with like-minded enthusiasts. At today’s sensible estimate, this delightful 2.4T could be the start of a new adventure.

Regularly serviced by Pavoda Porsche • Now UK-registered and most recently maintained by Porsche Reading. Full-service history Synonymous with Porsche’s endurance racing programme particularly at Le Mans, where they had triumphed some 17 times, the design of the Porsche Carrera GT is firmly rooted in its motorsport lineage. After success in 1998 at the famous 24-hour race, a team of engineers started work on a new mid-engined V10 model utilising advanced technologies and materials. However, the project was soon put on hold as the company decided to focus its energies in a different direction with the introduction of a new SUV and the development of the Porsche Cayenne. Fortunately, the Carrera GT project was kept alive, and a prototype was shown at the 2000 Paris Auto Show eliciting such a positive response that Porsche was virtually obliged to commit to a limited production run of 1,500 cars. By the end of that production run in 2006, only 1,270 cars had been built, making it rarer still. With its 5.7-litre, drysump V10 (producing around 612 brake horsepower) sitting low in the carbon-fibre chassis, the Carrera GT weighed in at 1,380kg and was capable of 0-60 mph in 3.5 seconds with a top speed of 205 mph. Open the driver’s door and you are immediately aware that this is a totally focussed, seriously fast Porsche with the sense of function only just lightened by the Beechwood gear knob, a nod to the famous Porsche 917 and its racing past. This, European-delivered example has covered just 4,300 miles from new and is finished in the dramatic combination of Basalt Black with a matching black leather interior. Having lived for the first year of its life in Germany, this

Fitted with the full carbon pack and accompanied by both sets of keys, this superb, UK-registered, example has been treated to full-body paint protection (£7,000), boasts a set of bespoke fitted Porsche luggage, and is now ready for its next owner to cherish and enjoy. With its removable top, howling naturally-aspirated V10, unmistakable styling, and class-leading driving dynamics, the Carrera GT offers unrivalled performance and excitement and, with its Italian counterpart, the Ferrari ‘Enzo’, fetching premium prices, these cars are to be taken seriously, with this wonderful example surely not to be missed.

It handled, it was quick, it looked fantastic and it was comfortable. With the 928, Porsche created a serious long-distance grand touring car that could also tackle twisting B-roads with ease, thanks to super-direct steering, 50/50 weight distribution and a clever ‘Weissach’ rear axle that kept the car firmly planted on the road. Many testers found that their nerve ran out long before the 928’s grip. If the 928 attracted any criticism at all, it was that it wasn’t quite quick enough. The original 4.4-litre engine generated 240 bhp but, mated to a relatively heavy car, the performance didn’t match the 911. So Porsche introduced the 928 S fitted with a 4.7-litre version of the engine and generating 310 bhp. This began to deliver the car’s true potential, achieving a 0-60 mph time of around 7.0 seconds. But the larger engine’s real trump card was its torque-rich in-gear acceleration around the mid-range - 50-70 mph sprints or indeed any acceleration from 3,000 rpm is in the supercar league. VJM 954Y was supplied new on the 4th October 1982 to Porsche Cars GB as the personal transport of the then Managing Director Peter Bulbeck with whom it remained until June 1984. It was then sold to a Mr Richard Cleare of R H Cleare and Company Ltd. who was a World Sportscar Championship entrant with a Tiga-Porsche for several years in the mid-1980s and managed a few outings in IMSA GTP at Le Mans. In November 1989, the current custodian commissioned Josh Sadler and Steve Carr from Autofarm to locate a 928S for him with certain key requirements including a full + buyer’s premium of 15% including VAT @ 20%
main dealer history, a manual gearbox, it had to be Guards Red and no sunroof! It didn’t take long, however, as VJM popped up at AFN Isleworth during December of that year as Richard Cleare had traded it in earlier. A deal was struck and after handing over £17,500 the car was in its new owner’s hands with 77,000 miles on the odometer. At this point, it was fitted with a new clutch and cruise control and was destined to remain with its owner for the next 29 years. Throughout this long period, the 928 has been fastidiously maintained by him with expenditure exceeding a whopping £130,000 with just over £30,000 of that incurred this year. Regular servicing was entrusted to Evans Halshaw of Warwick initially (1990 - 1994), subsequently to Porsche West Midlands of Brownhills (1994 - 2002) and then Porsche Centre Sutton Coldfield from 2002 up until 2011. Loe Bank Motors, a leading 928 specialist, cared for the car for a period of time and fitted the rebuilt engine this year along with other works, and finally, Porsche Centre Bolton have been looking after this remarkable car up to date. The Porsche has been allowed the occasional rest with a few short spells on SORN and full details are in the history file. The interior has been refreshed on a couple of occasions with the seats being re-trimmed in the correct period cloth, pleasingly, keeping the car in its original factory specification with the only variation from standard being the Porschesupplied sports steering wheel. Our vendor has kept all the receipts from 2008 to date but did not keep the earlier ones due to the sheer volume of paperwork. Standing ‘all-square’ and looking fresh, the car’s looks belie the 220,000 miles indicated on the odometer, a testament to the build quality of these great GT cars, regular maintenance, and caring ownership. It’s refreshing, and rather rare, to find an owner who knew exactly what he wanted, found it, and continues to use and look after it nearly three decades later. We understand that VJM continues to drive as well as it did back in 1990 and undoubtedly is up to the task of looking after its new owner for many more thousands of miles. Being a manual gearbox, 928S, this venerable Classic Porsche is now super rare and this is a great opportunity to get behind the wheel of one of Porsche’s landmark Grand Tourers.

• One of 42 Sport Equipment 928s, regarded as the UK’s version of the Club Sport with factory driver-focused upgrades • A superbly presented example recently refinished in Guards Red and mechanically refreshed. Invoices on file amounting to £25,000 • Delivered new to Williams F1 driver Tom Belso and owned for 24 years, supported by a detailed history folder • SE-spec includes uprated 320bhp 5.0L V8, manual short-shift transmission, a limited-slip differential and lightweight alloy wheels Porsche’s intended replacement for the 911 may not have achieved that particular goal, but it wasn’t for a lack of performance or technological advancement. Critics immediately recognised the advances inherent in the 928 over the 911, and the car was universally praised as one of the greatest ‘GT’ cars of all time. It handled, it was quick, it looked fantastic and it was comfortable. With the 928, Porsche created a serious long-distance grand-touring car that could also tackle twisting B-roads with ease, thanks to super-direct steering, 50/50 weight distribution and a clever Weissach rear axle that kept the car firmly planted. Many road testers found that their nerve ran out long before the 928’s grip. Porsche continuously developed their rangetopper throughout its production life, culminating with the launch of the S4 in 1987, which differed slightly from the earlier Series cars with its smoothed-off front and rear bumpers, larger rear spoiler, more interior equipment and a 5-litre version of the V8 engine developing 316bhp.
with pinstripe inserts’ sports seating. Clearly the 928 S4 SE proved itself as a well-rounded car that was easy to live with offering luxury, comfort and performance as it was 24 years later that a decision was made to part with the car. Only 42 Sport Equipment 928s were eventually to arrive in the UK, making this example today a rather rare sight and highly sought after by Porsche collectors and enthusiasts. Our vendor, a private car collector and Porsche enthusiast, purchased the car in June 2016 and began a thorough schedule of works to return it to its best. Naturally, Porsche 928 specialists, Tech9 Motorsport, were entrusted to oversee the refurbishment which included a bare-metal repaint in its original colours and mechanical refresh to ensure the famously bullet-proof engine was in perfect working order. Today, the car presents beautifully and performs very well offering an interesting modern classic Porsche with a fascinating provenance that has been fully sorted by a highly regarded Porsche specialist. Accompanying this 928 SE is a detailed history folder containing recent invoices to the sum of £25,000 for refurbishment works, a full account of the car’s service history from new, old MOTs and period magazines featuring reviews on the 928 SE. Also present are the original book pack, service book and complete tool kit. Writing in 911 & Porsche World in 2017, journalist Johnny Tipler compared the S4 SE to the 928 GT, concluding that the SE was “in a different league as far as handling is concerned: it’s precise, there’s no sense that it’s oversteering or understeering, and the power delivery is spot-on”.
1988 saw further development in the story of Porsche’s 928 with the launch of the SE featuring a more powerful uprated 5.0-litre V8 with 320bhp, but more importantly, the introduction of a 5-speed manual gearbox for those who wanted a more sporty driving experience. The SE specification also included twin exhausts, uprated engine and ECU, sports suspension and limited-slip-differential - the ultimate 928 had arrived! This smart 928 SE was delivered new to Williams F1 driver Tom Belso and first registered on 1st August 1988 with the private registration number ‘15 TOM’.

• The 911E shares much with top-spec ‘S’ but has more torque than either the ‘T’ or the ‘S’ • This beautiful matching-numbers car was originally delivered to the USA in January 1970 • Recent complete nut and bolt restoration by Porsche specialists ‘Theon Design’ back to its original specifications (as shown on the Porsche COA) • The original 2.2-litre MFI flat-six engine has been rebuilt by Porsche specialists ‘Strass’ of Leeds • Fitted with Porsche’s semi-automatic transmission known as ‘Sportomatic’ • Simply stunning in Ivory with a black leatherette basketweave interior By 1970 (C Series) all 911 engines were now 2.2-litres which offered great flexibility, especially at low revs. This gave the 911E model a healthy 155bhp, but despite this lower power output compared to the 911S, the 911E was actually quicker during acceleration up to 99 mph. It shared the same mechanical twin-row Bosch fuel injection pumps as the 911S but aimed at a slightly less ‘sporting’ market, the ‘E’ could be specified with the four-speed 905/20 ‘Sportomatic’ gearbox, which first came to prominence when it was used to great success in the Porsche 911R Sportomatic which claimed victory in the ‘Marathon de la Route’ (84 hrs of Nürburgring) in 1967. The Sportomatic system was pioneered by Porsche and is essentially a conventional synchromesh manual gearbox with a clutch that is engaged by a micro-switch in the gearstick knob rather than a separate pedal. Changing gear without a clutch pedal to depress resulted in very smooth changes and a more relaxed drive around town when compared to its manual siblings. The car presented here is a matching-numbers, 1970 Porsche 911 2.2-litre MFI Sportomatic coupe, originally delivered to the USA in January 1970, then it was exported to the UK around 20 years ago, where a slow restoration was started. This process was started afresh in 2017, when it was the subject of a complete, exacting and fully documented restoration carried out for the most part and overseen by marque specialists ‘THEON DESIGN’ of Oxfordshire. As with the rest of this beautiful 911, the original 2.2-litre, flat-six engine has been restored, in this case by another Porsche specialist, Strass of Leeds. There are bills for an engine rebuild including replacing the cylinders and pistons,
98
Ferrari and Porsche Sale 2019
overhauling the MFI unit, and fitting new pipework and hoses. The list of refurbished or replaced parts is extensive and also includes a new alternator and starter motor. The engine has been prepared and detailed by THEON, the green ‘E’ engine cover has been refurbished back to as-new condition, and the whole engine bay looks as good as the exterior. Finished in its original Ivory White paintwork, a great deal of love and care has been invested in the car’s bodywork with a total strip down to the bare metal, new panels, subsequent alignment and a painstaking professional respray. The cabin too has been superbly returned to original specification. All parts have been removed and, where possible, retained albeit stripped, retrimmed or painted. The original Porsche Comfort seats were disassembled, and every part was overhauled. The internal seat frames were blasted then repainted and the foams have been replaced with original specification/shape to make them as comfortable as when they were new, prior to being retrimmed in the original material. Likewise, the brightwork has all been re-chromed and looks superb. The headlining, carpets and upper post trim have all been replaced with as-new spec materials, whilst the dials were disassembled, checked, cleaned, refurbished, then reassembled. The original steering wheel has also been re-trimmed. A periodcorrect Blaupunkt Frankfurt radio, in addition to a new Porsche dash centre speaker, has been sourced and installed in the car and the instrumentation and switch-gear are clean, crisp and fully operational. The suspension and brakes have also been fully refurbished. All of the suspension (including torsion bars, wishbones and dampers) and brake hardware has been stripped and assessed, then overhauled or replaced if damaged or corroded beyond repair. Parts have been blasted and powder coated where possible and all the bushes and bearings have been replaced. All new brake lines, discs and pads, with refurbished calipers, including new pistons, seals and bleed nipples were fitted as were a new brake master cylinder and new handbrake cables. The restored (original-date stamped), 5.5 x 14” Fuchs wheels look stunning in their new factory finish of satin black and chrome and the original set of Porsche wheel centre caps have also been refurbished to match the wheels and are a fitting final detail. The expression ‘better than when new’ is often over-used in relation to restored classic cars, but it couldn’t be more apt in the case of this 911. This is a simply lovely example of a classic Porsche and is not to be missed.

• Supplied new to Sweden through Scania-Vabis Porsche in right-hand drive • Finished in Signal Red with a red leatherette interior, optioned with a chrome horn ring! • Never restored, retaining its original body panels and its original engine and transmission • A two-owner car in Sweden until 2014 then imported to the UK and registered with DVLA • Superb history file containing original service booklets, original Porsche folder and original Reutter key fob The 356 is acknowledged as Porsche’s first venture into production and was a lightweight and nimble rear-engined, rear-wheel-drive, two-door sporting car available in hardtop Coupé and open configurations. Engineering and design innovations continued during the years of manufacture, contributing to its motorsports success and its popularity as a road car. The model was created by Ferdinand “Ferry” Porsche (son of Dr.Ing. Ferdinand Porsche, founder of the company), based on an original design by Porsche employee Erwin Komenda, and initially its mechanicals (including engine, suspension, and chassis) were derived from the basic Volkswagen Beetle, a product of his Father’s fertile imagination. Porsche continued to develop and refine the 356 with a focus on performance, and by the late 1950’s fewer parts were shared with its pedestrian cousin, and increasing success in competition and its availability worldwide resulted in the distinctive little car, in all its iterations, finding over 76,000 homes between 1948 and 1966. Today, the Porsche 356 is a highly regarded collector’s car.
cover a further 30,000 km. It’s a testament to the first two owners in Sweden that the car remains in the original unrestored condition it does to this day, retaining its original body panels and confirmed by the Porsche Certificate of Authenticity, its original engine and transmission. The history file contains the original service booklets in the original Porsche folder and even the original Reutter key fob remains with the car. It is understood that the car was only used between April and October and stored in a heated underground garage during winter months, helping preserve it and the lovely patina evident today. The bodywork, panel gaps and panel fit are beautiful, the door closes with the lightest of touches, and the paintwork, interior and dashboard retain a gentle patina, lightly used and well cared for, an old family friend. In 2014, the car was imported to the UK and registered with the DVLA being allocated registration ‘832 UYH’ and sold to a collector. Recent maintenance work by a marque specialist includes a new clutch, gearbox seals and a top-end engine rebuild. The car is now showing 90,440km on the odometer which we believe to be correct given its history and condition. Rarely do cars of this calibre in such beautiful unrestored condition come to market and, being an original right-hand drive 356B 1600 Super, this is an exquisite opportunity to own an exceptional car.
We are very proud to offer this special original right-hand drive Porsche 356B T6 1600 Super which was delivered through Scania-Vabis Porsche in Sweden and sold to its first owner, a Mr Walter Edestrand, in February 1962. At that time, and until September 1967, Sweden drove on the left-hand side of the road, and consequently, cars were right-hand drive. Finished in Signal Red with a red leatherette interior, the car was a late 356B designation T6 with coachwork by Reutter of Stuttgart. After three years, in April 1965, when the car had covered 50,095 km, it was purchased by a Mr Lars Linderholm who was to cherish this 356B for the next 49 years and + buyer’s premium of 15% including VAT @ 20%

• A rare and desirable, UK right-hand drive, Gen 1.5 with a manual gearbox • In Metalic Basalt Black, with full Red Carrera natural leather and a black hood • Lovely specification including the desirable Sports Chrono Package • Only 36,000 miles. Full Porsche service history with seven stamps in the book • Lots of history and in fantastic condition • These cars are very rare, particularly with a manual gearbox The Porsche 911 needs little in the way of introduction and the signature model of the road car line-up has, since 1975, always been the Turbo. When it first appeared, the 911 Turbo was something to be feared. Drivers clung on to this fearsome thing, its 258bhp making it one of the quickest production cars on sale. Each successive generation saw the 911 Turbo become more powerful and better resolved. By the time the water-cooled ‘996’ generation car appeared in 1999, the Turbo had become genuinely civilised; rocket ship fast but civilised nonetheless. The ‘997’ generation 911 was an evolution of the 996 with many changes designed to improve quality while retaining that car’s winning blend of performance and usability. Although the 911 (997) Carrera models appeared in 2004, it wasn’t until 2006 that the Turbo version was launched. First shown at that year’s Geneva Show, it was initially offered as a Coupé (and later as a cabriolet) with an impressive specification. The Mezger 3.6-litre engine was continued, now producing 480bhp at 6,000 rpm and featuring VarioCam Plus and a pair of clever Borg-Warner variable geometry turbochargers-a totally new technology for Porsche. With a manual gearbox, the 997 Turbo requires just 3.9 seconds to reach 62 mph and will go on to 193 mph. Power is transmitted to all four wheels with Porsche Traction Management (PTM) which uses an electronically controlled multi-plate clutch. This intelligent technology provides variable drive to each axle. The front/rear split is continuously adjusted based on current road conditions and driver inputs. Although biased towards the rear, the front receives more power whenever the situation requires.

• The D-series (August 1970-July 1971) was one of the most desirable early 911 models • The 911S 2.2 was fitted with the 2195cc, SOHC, Flat-6, Type 911/02 engine • Power output was now 180bhp at 6,500rpm, giving it a top speed of 138 mph/ 0-60 in seven seconds • This example was UK-delivered from new and retains its original matching numbers engine • Subject to a significant body restoration during 2015 but would benefit from further detailing • The 2.2 S is a rare car and appears very sensibly guided to reflect the current market
in Devon and only used occasionally weather permitting. Whilst in his ownership it has been subject to partial bodywork restorations, firstly in 2000 which saw a £15,000 spend with KD Motor Engineers in Cheshire and secondly in 2015 which saw £30,000 spent with the work organised by Porsche Exeter. The result is a very honest and eminently usable 911S which could certainly be enjoyed as is. Our vendor contacted Porsche Reading to gain confirmation that it retains the original engine and by the time of the sale it may come with the Porsche Letter of Conformity. It has had six previous owners and may have been subject to a colour change at some time. With 911S 2.2s becoming increasingly rare in the market place, this much-enjoyed example would make a sensible investment or is simply ready to be driven as intended.
In the early days of the 911, the car continued to be developed and improved on an annual basis and the 1969 C-series models saw a huge step forward in the car’s evolution, with a longer wheelbase, wider wheels, low profile tyres, improved lighting, trim and ventilation, stronger suspension and brakes, plus the introduction of the excellent, race-derived, CD ignition and mechanical fuel injection. These advances were consolidated in the forthcoming 2.2-litre range. The D-series 911 models were produced from August 1970 until July 1971, and for model-year 1970, the engines of all 911s were increased to 2,195cc. The 911S 2.2 was fitted with the SOHC flat 6-cylinder Type 911/02 engine, with an uprated power output of 180bhp at 6,500rpm, giving it a claimed top speed of 138 mph and a 0-60 mph time of 7.0 seconds. It had a 5-speed manual transaxle, 4-wheel ventilated disc brakes and 4-wheel independent suspension. The iconic 2.2 911S was immortalised by Steve McQueen in the opening scenes of the cult movie Le Mans, McQueen is seen charging around the French country roads with the glorious sound of its flat-six, creating arguably the most memorable scene of the film. The 2.2S stayed in production for just 1969-71 and with fewer numbers manufactured than the 2.4S. This lovely 1971, 911S 2.2 has been with our vendor since 1991 and has been used by him and his wife ever since, mainly as their daily driver, and regularly serviced by Porsche service centres near his place of work in London and his home near Exeter.

produces as much downforce at speed (100kg) as the 911 GT3.

Inside, the steering wheel is new for the GT4 and the heated sports seats are taken from the 918 and trimmed in both leather and Alcantara as are the door trims. Standard equipment includes red brake calipers, sports exhaust, electric heated mirrors, LED rear lights, PASM, PTM, grey top-tint screen, and black rear wing supports.
• ‘Sport Chrono’ option, PCM, sound package, heated seats and the carbon interior pack • Most recently serviced by Porsche Centre Silverstone in 2017 • Will be supplied with a new set of tyres and ready to go. Very competitively guided Positioned between the Cayman GTS and the 911 GT3, the Cayman GT4 was launched in 2015 and built at Porsche’s Weissach ‘Motorsportzentrum’ using a stiffened and strengthened Cayman bodyshell as a starting point and lowered and fitted with as many GT3 parts as possible. The front axle and suspension are borrowed from the 911 GT3 although the rear axle and forged aluminium double wishbone suspension are completely new. Dampers are taken from the GT3 as is the electric steering system which is equipped with new software which, according to one much respected journalist, is “the most perfect electronic power steering system you’ll ever use”. Stopping power is provided by standard steel brakes, or the optional carbon-ceramics from the GT3. The forged 20in alloy wheels are new and are shod in Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tyres. The rear 295/30 ZR20 tyres are bespoke, but the front 245/35 ZR20s are borrowed from the GT3 as they apparently were “a perfect match”. Mounted midships is a reworked version of the Carrera S’ 3.8-litre, flat-six engine, producing 385bhp at 7400rpm and 310 lb/ft at 4750-6000rpm. It is hooked up to a modified version of the Cayman GTS’ six-speed manual gearbox and although a PDK dual-clutch automatic was considered, it was never used, meaning the Cayman GT4 is manual only. The goal was to create a “zero lift car”, but thanks to the extensive aerodynamic and cooling package on the car – which includes a front splitter, a larger front grille and increased frontal air intakes, side air intakes, two rear spoilers and a fully functional diffuser – the Cayman GT4

There is an invoice for £590 in the file from Porsche Centre Silverstone dated 13th October 2017 that relates to an ‘Intermediate Service’ and we understand that the car will be fitted with two new tyres prior to the sale.

• Comprehensive service history and supplied with service book and tools • Supplied with a UK V5c and an MOT until 28th April 2020 There are very few cars that can boast a history anything like that of the Porsche 911. This was the gem of a sports car that simply blew everything away back in 1964. Since then, the 911 has evolved over the years to become one of the world’s true motoring legends. Without doubt, part of the appeal of this iconic model is that its soul has always remained true to the original design. Porsche started to manufacture the ‘Targa’ top 911 from the mid-sixties and kept it in production in various forms right up to the current Porsche 997 Targa. During the 911 Carrera 3.2 production era, all the non-Turbo variants - Coupé, Targa and Cabriolet - were designated ‘911 Carrera’ and offered in standard and sports options. Cars from this era are powered by the familiar air (and oil) cooled, horizontally opposed, flat six-cylinder, ‘boxer’, 3,164cc engine producing 231 bhp and 284 N.m of torque, and fitted with a 5-speed manual gearbox. Ignition and injection are managed by the Bosch Motronic system providing efficient and economical performance. This particular 3.2-litre Carrera Targa was registered to its first owner in the UK on 1st August 1989. Finished in Baltic Blue with a Linen Leather interior, the car sports bodycoloured Fuchs wheels and has the desirable G50 five-speed gearbox. The original rear spoiler was removed as the owner preferred the way the car looked without it, but it is included with the sale. The accompanying history file contains the service book which records 22 services since 1989, predominantly by Official Porsche Centres or marque specialists, and in 1999 the engine had a top-end overhaul at AFN at which point it had covered 90,495 miles. The most recent service was carried out at marque specialist JZM in April of this year. Now having covered a total of 102,762 miles, the car is + buyer’s premium of 15% including VAT @ 20%

• Privately owned since April 1990. First time offered for sale in nearly 30 years • Left-hand drive, 356 B T6 1600, bought from California by our vendor and shipped here shortly afterwards • Reported to have never been fully restored. Painted 30 years ago, now showing a gentle patina • Very little use in recent years and guided competitively for such a sought after model The 356 is acknowledged as Porsche’s first venture into production and was a lightweight and nimble rear-engined, rear-wheel-drive, two-door sporting car available in hardtop Coupé and open configurations. Engineering and design innovations continued during the years of manufacture, contributing to its motorsports success and its popularity as a road car. The model was created by Ferdinand “Ferry” Porsche (son of Dr. Ing. Ferdinand Porsche, founder of the company), based on an original design by Porsche employee Erwin Komenda, and initially its mechanicals (including engine, suspension, and chassis) were derived from the basic Volkswagen Beetle, a product of his Father’s fertile imagination. Porsche continued to develop and refine the 356 with a focus on performance, and by the late 1950’s fewer parts were shared with its pedestrian cousin, and increasing success in competition and its availability worldwide resulted in the distinctive little car, in all its iterations, finding over 76,000 homes between 1948 and 1966. Today, the Porsche 356 is a highly regarded collector’s car. This rare and desirable, left-hand drive 356 B T6 has been owned by our private vendor since April 1990 after he purchased it in California and then imported it to the UK. He describes the Porsche as a genuine ‘black plate’ car and he used it regularly up until 1993 when he then took it off the road as he moved to London. It remained dry stored for the following 25 years until last year when he recommissioned the 356 himself, putting it through an MOT and covering around 700 miles. He reports that “This 356 has never been fully restored, and has only had remedial work done if necessary. It’s a very original body with numbers matching doors, hinge cover plates, front hood and engine cover. The rest of the body is also reported to be original - floors, longitudinals, wing stays, horn brackets, the wiring loom tabs etc. The only exception

is the battery/spare wheel well (leaking battery) but proficiently repaired long ago. Bumpers, trim, the fuel tank specific to T6Bs and most other components have remained with this venerable little 356 since it left the factory. The engine and gearbox, however, are not the originals but are period correct. Other numbers on the car are the carburettors, seats and window winder mechanisms, all date code-matched to 7/61. The VIN number stamped behind the spare wheel also matches the secret ‘micro VIN’ stamped into the ‘A’ post behind the right hinge plate. The front seats have been re-trimmed in leather but the carpets were replaced (originals retained) with new floor mats. The Slate Grey paint was also refreshed and although this was done almost 30 years ago now, it has developed a lovely patina increasingly appreciated by many Porsche enthusiasts. This is an unrestored car because it’s never needed one”. Coming to the market for the first time in nearly 30 years this is a very honest, pretty and usable T6 that is estimated remarkably sensibly considering the rarity and fun on offer.

• In 1978, Porsche introduced the new version of the 911, called the ‘911SC’. Porsche reintroduced the SC designation for the first time since the 356SC • The ‘SC’ stands for ‘Super Carrera’. It featured a 3.0-litre aluminium engine with Bosch K-Jetronic fuel injection and a 5-speed 915 gearbox • This is a matching-numbers, fully restored, UK righthand drive car, believed to have had just two owners in the last 24 years doing a total of only 10,000 miles in this time • This car has had a bare metal respray, the engine has had a top end rebuild whilst the bottom end was deemed to be sound; the gearbox has been refreshed at marque specialists ‘Historika’, along with the renewal of the brakes and front sub-frame In 1978, Porsche introduced the new version of the 911, called the ‘911 SC’ with the “SC” moniker standing for “Super Carrera”. According to Porsche Club GB, the 911 SC is a ‘landmark 911’ because it was the first Porsche model developed to appeal to a wider market than just the enthusiastic driver and is the 911 that launched the model’s reputation for excellent durability and build quality. Two factors above all else contributed to that reputation - the use from 1976 of a fully zinc-coated steel bodyshell and the adoption of a normally aspirated version of the Turbo’s more robust 3.0-litre aluminium engine. The earlier 2.7-litre unit had been recognised as being at the limit of its development and the new Type 930 engine reset the design parameters for the flat-6’s development potential. The move to an aluminium engine was to regain case reliability, something missing for many years with magnesium and, when combined with the well-proven Bosch K-Jetronic fuel injection and a 5-speed 915 gearbox, it developed into a very flexible, torquey powerplant. Originally power output was 180bhp, later 188bhp and then, by 1980, it was increased to 204bhp, good for 146 mph.
drive 911 SC Coupé and is understood to be a UK ‘Sport’ model (although this will require confirmation), the most sought-after variant with Fuchs alloys, front lip spoiler, ‘whale-tail’ rear spoiler, Bilstein sport shock absorbers and ‘sport’ seats. According to our vendor, the car has only had two owners in the last 24 years, covering a total of just 10,000 miles in this time. It has been on SORN for the last three years and done no more than 500 miles in the last five years, although it has been started and run up every month but not driven. The car has benefited from a bare metal respray, whilst the engine has had a top end rebuild and the gearbox was refreshed at Porsche specialists ‘Historika’, along with the renewal of the brakes and front subframe. The recent recommissioning work included the fitting of a Porsche ‘short- shifter’, a new clutch, new discs, calipers and pads all round, all new Bilstein suspension, a refurbished front subframe, reconditioned steering rack, refurbished air conditioning and refurbished alloy wheels with new Bridgestone S02 tyres. Often at a tempting guide price, the 911 SC model has been somewhat of a ‘sleeper’ but is tipped by many to gain the recognition it deserves.
The SC also introduced the brake servo, but this was still a physically demanding car and whilst the pedal had lost its previous wooden feel to be replaced with a softer touch, it still needed care to prevent front wheel lock-up.

• One of only 100 right-hand drive Turbo Cabriolets with only 64,000 miles from new • Good service history, the last service being carried out less than 1,000 miles ago • Fitted with a Promax Stage 2 performance upgrade which delivers some 300bhp • The bodywork, interior and mechanics appear to be in good order • A rare modern classic worthy of the serious Porsche collector Following the international success of their nimble 924, Porsche designed an all-alloy, 2.5-litre inline-four for their new 944 which they planned to introduce in 1982. Their talented engineers were able to produce a very smooth running four-cylinder engine by utilising two counter-rotating balance shafts running at twice engine speed. These carry eccentric weights which produce inertial forces that balance out the unbalanced secondary forces, resulting in a fourcylinder engine that feels as smooth as a six. Cosmetically, the 944’s bodywork was revised with wider wheel arches (similar to that of the 924 Carrera GT), a fresh interior and upgrades to the braking and suspension systems. With greater visual presence and the performance to match, better handling, stopping power and more creature comforts, the 944 was a natural step forward. A ‘turbo’ version of the 944 was always on the cards, and the forced induction boosted the 2.5-litre engine by a healthy 60bhp, necessitating an upgraded clutch and gearbox. The chassis was further developed and thicker anti-roll bars and four-pot brake callipers were fitted to deal with the significantly increased performance. Externally, a smoother nose panel and a larger rear spoiler distinguished it from its lesser siblings. In February 1991, (the final year of 944 production), Porsche released the 944 Turbo Cabriolet which combined the Turbo S’ 250bhp engine with the strengthened cabriolet body built by the ASC-American Sunroof Company at Weinsberg. Porsche initially announced that 600 would be made, but ultimately 625 were built, with just 100 examples produced in right-hand drive for the UK, Japanese, Australian and South African markets. This then is a very rare and capable model, with a 0-62 mph time of under six seconds, and was

• One of only 53 Club Sports in right-hand drive from only 340 produced worldwide • Superbly presented in Grand Prix White with Guards Red Fuchs alloys and decals • Only 59,000 miles. Cossetted in a significant private collection since 2011 • Amazingly offered at No Reserve. A rare and desirable 1980s Porsche. One for the serious collector When the 1988 model year 911 was launched in September 1987, Porsche also introduced a lightweight high-performance version aimed at the firm’s hardcore customers. No doubt inspired by the legendary 2.7 RS of 1972 this new Coupé only car was the first to adopt Porsche’s now revered Club Sport designation. The CS was a stripped out version of the 3.2, made some 100kg lighter than most by stripping out non-essentials like the rear seats, sound deadening, electric windows, and even the passenger’s sun visor. The engine revs more freely, and 300rpm higher, thanks to lightweight inlet valves and a reprogrammed ECU. Just 340 examples were made, and only 53 of those were in right-hand-drive for the UK market. Available in the UK in any colour you like, as long as what you like is Grand Prix White with red wheel centres. Unsurprisingly with more power and 38kg less weight to lug around, the Club Sport instantly became the quickest normally aspirated 911 available with 0-60mph requiring a mere 5.1 seconds whilst top speed rose to 156mph. The transmission featured revised 4th and 5th gear ratios and a limited-slip differential. Bilstein sports suspension was specified and Fuchs alloy wheels, 7” front and 8” rear. This exceptional 911 Club Sport was supplied new by AFN Guildford in October 1988. It has covered fewer than 60,000 miles from new, which is supported by every MOT certificate and the original service book showing official stamps to 16,100 miles in 1991 followed by marque specialists since. The history file also includes a host of bills from 1990 up to the last recorded service in October 2010 when it was fitted with a 2.7RS stainless steel exhaust.

• Very rare RHD 997 GT2 Club Sport (Manual) in Ruby Red Metallic with 19” GT3 alloys • Originally supplied by Porsche Malaysia and UKregistered in February 2019 • Serious numbers; 3.6-litre, 523bhp, 0-62mph-3.7 seconds, 210 miles per hour • 6-speed manual transmission, Carbon-ceramic brakes, PASM, PSM • Nomex Club Sport Trim, 6-point drivers harness, carbon folding bucket seats, air-con, multi-function wheel • Original panels, original paint, 9,555 miles from new, documented service history The prospect of combining the most powerful turbo engine in their range at the time, with a manual gearbox and mounting them in a rear-wheel drive, lightweight 911 was the inspiration for the, rather special, Porsche 911 GT2. At the same time, Porsche upgrade and modify the suspension and brakes, increase the engine output whilst lightening and removing interior components to create the ultimate driver’s version of that particular model. This recipe has been used with the 993, 996 and 997 versions of their iconic 911 model. This car is the GT2 version of the 911 (997), introduced in 2008 and produced until 2012. The engine uses twin, variable-geometry, water-cooled turbochargers producing a thumping 523bhp and 500 lbs foot of torque, leading to a maximum speed in excess of 210mph and a 0-60mph time of just 3.6 seconds! Essentially it’s a 997 Turbo with more power fed through the rear wheels only, a track orientated suspension and brake set up, and a GT3 interior. To be taken seriously. Additionally, for those customers who wanted to go a little further, a Club Sport Package (M003) was a no-cost option and offered fire-retardant cloth-lined Recaros, sixpoint race harnesses, a bolt-in rear roll cage (front section supplied separately), fire extinguisher and a battery cut-off switch. The combination of the M003 Club Sport Package and striking Ruby Red Metallic paintwork makes this GT2 somewhat of a rarity and most definitely a head-turner. It is a 2008 car originally supplied by Porsche in Malaysia and first registered in the UK during February 2015. Fitted, as
110 Ferrari and Porsche Sale 2019
standard, with a six-speed manual transmission and having only covered 9,555 miles, the car is in wonderful condition with a well-documented service history. Serious Porsches of this nature tend to be very carefully specified and this one is no exception with the emphasis on performance rather than creature comforts. The interior is finished in ‘Nomex Club Sport Trim’ with carbon folding bucket seats, 6-point drivers harness, Alcantara roof lining, multi-function steering wheel, air-con, PCM 3 basic radio and Sports Chrono Package Plus. It’s fitted with PCCB Carbonceramic brakes, PSM stability management, PASM electronic damper control, Xenon lighting, and the car sits beautifully on 19” GT3 colour coded alloys. The PCCB discs have recently been refurbished with four new Michelin Sport Cup tyres fitted at the same time and there is an invoice on file from JZM for £7,115 for this attention. With buyers of the following model, the 991 GT2 RS tending to favour the PDK transmission, this means that this righthand drive 997 GT2 with a manual gearbox is now the end of an era and this aspect alone will render it all the more desirable. This particular example is supplied in wonderful condition both cosmetically and mechanically and would make the perfect addition to any wider collection of serious performance Porsches.

• Only of only 53 ‘last of the line’ Porsche 911 (930) Turbo LEs. Highly desirable G50 5-speed gearbox • An original, UK-supplied, right-hand drive example with only 30,800 miles from new • Finished in Grand Prix White with a Linen leather interior • Accompanied by a quantity of maintenance and service invoices, Certificate of Authenticity, original tyre inflator and spare key • Only available on the UK market and now represents an exclusive ownership proposition First launched at the 1973 Paris Auto Show, with production commencing in 1975, the Porsche 911 ‘930’ Turbo was a genuine Supercar that came to define both the 1970s and 1980s and was one of the fastest production cars available at that time. The basic engine underpinnings came from the Carrera 2.7RS with its capacity increased to 3.0 Litres and, of course, turbocharged with technology gleaned from Porsche’s 917/30 Can-Am programme. The bodywork came in for special treatment resulting in one of the most aggressive looking Porsches ever made with its wide arches and impressive rear “whale-tail” and the brakes were borrowed directly from the Porsche 917 race car. At the end of production in 1989, Porsche decided to mark the occasion by creating a very special Limited Edition 930 - the ultimate Turbo. A small number of the last assembly batch of standard 3.3-litre cars were taken off the line and sent to the ‘Exclusive’ team at Zuffenhausen to be finished by hand. With just 53 of these cars produced, one for each UK dealership in 1989, a host of bespoke options were offered including colour-coded wheels, top tinted windscreen, a choice of special colours for interior and exterior, rear quarter air intake ducts, electric sunroof, heated multi-adjust electric seats, and finally gold ‘Turbo’ lettering stitched behind the seats. Each car also featured a gold plaque on the centre console and a gold gear knob top as recognition of the LE’s place in Porsche 911 history. This original right-hand drive, 930 Turbo Limited Edition (LE) was sold new on the 1st August 1989 by Rivervale, Berkshire. The factory options sticker under the bonnet shows it was supplied with the following option codes: heated seats (139), locking limited-slip diff (220), shorter
112 Ferrari and Porsche Sale 2019
gear shift lever (243), sunroof (650) and velour carpeting (975). There are a large number of bills and receipts in the history folder from various specialists such as RGL, JAZ and Porsche themselves for various jobs over the years and the mileage of 30,500 miles is corroborated by a number of MoT certificates dating back to 1993. The car looks fabulous in its original colour of Grand Prix White and the paintwork appears to have aged well. The Linen leather interior is also in beautiful condition, befitting a car that has covered just over 30,000 miles. Supplied with a Porsche Certificate of Authenticity, the original tyre inflator, and a spare key, we welcome any inspection. A full Porsche West London vehicle health check, carried out in May 2014, can be found in the history file and is available to any prospective purchasers. The car was purchased from Silverstone Auctions in mid2017 and has remained in a private collection since with limited use. The 930 Turbo was in production for an incredible 14 years and was the epitome of ‘supercar’ design in period. The last 53 Limited Edition vehicles are arguably the most collectable of the 21,589 cars built, as they were only available to the UK market and represent an exclusive and exhilarating ownership proposition.

• The 1978 Model Year saw the introduction of the 180 bhp, 911 SC 3.0 • This delightful Targa has covered an incredible 23,975 miles from new • Finished in Petrol Blue Metallic over black leatherette with pin stripe velours • Just four former keepers and lots of history corroborating the mileage • Extensively maintained by marque specialists including Autofarm and Tuthills In 1978, Porsche introduced their latest development of the 911, christened the ‘911 SC’, with the SC standing for Super Carrera. Powered by a 3.0-litre six-cylinder engine with Bosch K-Jetronic fuel injection and a five-speed, 915 transmission, power output initially was 180bhp, later 188bhp and then, in 1981, it was increased to a heady 204bhp. 1979 was the year that Porsche had envisioned that their new 928 would replace the 911 (we are still waiting for that to happen), however, 911 sales remained so strong that Porsche revised its strategy and decided to inject new life into their core model. This right-hand drive, UK-delivered 1977 (1978MY) 3-litre SC Targa is accompanied by its Porsche C of A which tells us that it was completed in September 1977 finished in Petrol Blue Metallic over black leatherette with pinstripe velours and sitting on ATS cast alloy wheels. It was ordered from new with impact absorbers, headlamp washers, auto heating controls, leather steering wheel, tinted glass and electric windows. This delightful Targa has covered an incredible 23,975 miles from new in the hands of four former keepers, all corroborated by its MOT history. Within the owner’s file is a summary of maintenance, most of which appears to have been entrusted to marque specialists including Autofarm, Tuthills and Banbury Porsche. Further documentation and history relating to this remarkable, low mileage SC is available from our documents desk at the sale.

The Seller has notified (or will before the Auction notify) SAL 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 SAL with all such information in the Seller’s possession or control. 7.1.3 The Seller shall compensate SAL and the Buyer in full for all losses, expenses and other costs which are caused by the Seller’s breach of any obligation of the Seller under the Terms. 7.1.4 Where the vehicle is not registered in the UK, the seller shall be responsible for completing the NOVA application within 14 days of the car arriving in the UK and before the vehicle arrives at the auction for sale. 8.

All Lots will be sold without Reserve unless a Reserve has been agreed by SAL in writing. 9.5 Where a Reserve has been agreed, only SAL at its absolute discretion may bid on behalf of the Seller. 9.6 If no Reserve has been placed on a Lot, SAL shall in no way be held liable should the Lot be purchased for a price below any lowest estimated selling price of the Lot given in any Catalogue. 9.7 SAL may sell a Lot below the Reserve agreed with the Seller, provided that SAL accounts to the Seller for the same Sale Proceeds as the Seller would have received had the Lot been sold at that Reserve. 9.8 The Auctioneer may declare a lot “provisionally sold”. The highest bid placed during the auction will remain open for acceptance by the seller until 12pm the next day following the auction. During this period SAL will take steps to contact the seller and determine whether they are willing to accept the bid. Following confirmation from the seller, SAL will notify the buyer whether their bid has been accepted or rejected. The buyers bid will be deemed to be rejected if they have not been notified of its acceptance by 12pm the following day. Where the buyer is notified that the bid has been accepted a contract for the sale of the lot will be formed between the buyer and the seller as if the hammer fell during the auction.
