AAudi’s headquarters are in Bavaria and has been a wholly owned (99.55%) subsidiary of Volkswagen AG since 1966 following a phased purchase of its predecessor, Auto Union, from its former owner, Daimler-Benz. Volkswagen relaunched the Audi brand in 1965 and the company’s slogan or tagline is Vorsprung durch Technik, meaning ‘Progress through Technology’. The Audi image at this time was a conservative one, and so, a proposal from chassis engineer Jörg Bensinger was accepted to develop the four-wheel drive technology in Volkswagen's military vehicle for an Audi performance car and rally racing car. The performance car, introduced in 1980, was named the ‘Audi Quattro’, a turbocharged coupé which was also the first German large-scale production vehicle to feature permanent all-wheel drive through a centre differential. Prominent wins in rallying proved the viability of all-wheel drive racecars and the Audi name became associated with advances in automotive technology.
Originally registered on 19th May 1988, this Audi has only had three owners from new during its 29 years on British roads. The current vendor has owned her since June 2012 and has done little more than 3,000 miles in that time. However she has always been well maintained and kept in a dry warm garage. Showing no signs of corrosion, the fastidious vendor advises us the Quattro drives exceedingly well with no known faults. The five cylinder, 2226cc engine started immediately when requested and ran smoothly with no adverse rattles or noises; clearly this is a Quattro Coupé GT that has been very well cared for. Supplied with a V5C registration document and a current MoT test certificate valid until 3rd May 2018 (no advisories); this Audi is offered for sale without reserve.
* Interested parties should note this is a two wheel drive vehicle and not Quattro as previously advertised

We are pleased to present this unique MGC Roadster that was first supplied to the MG main dealer in Southern California in 1968 The original specifications included automatic transmission wire wheels with the coachwork finished in British Racing Green The interesting life of this motor car really began in the early 1970s when a UK serviceman whilst serving in California purchased it from the main MG dealer He apparently used the MG for a couple of years and then returned it to the dealer asking for it to be converted to righthand drive as he was to be posted back to the UK and wished to take the car with him A local body shop was entrusted with the work the conversion included a North American steering column and switch gear Sebringstyle steel wheel arches manufactured on an English wheel and a later MGB dashboard that accommodates the MGC odometer and revolution countersThe engine was said to have been removed rebuilt and balanced sadly no documented evidence of this exists whilst an overdrive gearbox was also added After a year had passed the serviceman became uncontactable the suspicion being that he had a large bill to pay so returned to the UK without paying There the MGC sat for over 20 years until purchased by Bob Sauder of Grass Valley California in the early 1990s At this time it was finished in primer and had many features such as the wire wheels six branch manifold triple carburettors and a Downton twin pipe exhaust system It stayed there until Bob now in his 70’s decided that he would never get around to finishing the project and so sold it on to the current UK owner in February 2012 It was then that the serious work of recommissioning the MGC began and completed to the standard you see today In fact such is the condition of this drystate MG that there is no evidence of the car ever having been welded apart from the addition of the steel wheel arches or of it ever having been involved in an accident Further additions include telescopic shock absorbers all around renewed brake and clutch systems and a rebuilt overdrive gearbox whilst the well respected trimmers P J M Motors of Market Drayton Shropshire trimmed the leather interior It is now UK registered and comes with an MoT test certificate with no advisories valid until May 2018Today this unusual and unique MGC nicknamed ‘The Monster’ presents very well and we are informed drives just like an MGC should Love it or hate it you will not fail to notice it

These magnificent 12 cylinder Ferraris have enjoyed cult status for some years now and the angular Pininfarina design was the motivating factor behind this frontengined masterpiece The design was derived from the almost identical looking 365 GT4 22 which itself was based on the legendary Daytona Production began in 1976 when Ferrari revealed its first car fitted with an automatic transmission the 400 at the Paris Motorshow of 1976 The gearbox was a threespeed Borg Warner unit from the General Motors parts bin reliable and certainly able to take the prodigious amount of power available The injection version followed with Bosch KJetronics under the bonnet The interior was lavishly appointed with rich leather fine wood and highend carpet and together with the longlegged gearing and engine made for excellent long distance touring Today its sleek lines and relatively limited production numbers have made good examples very collectable commodities Supplied new from Maranello Concessionaires in 1980 in Blue Sera with contrasting Corda carpets as well as a Ferrari specified UK fitted sunroof a superrare option at the time This example has been cherished by the current owner for some eight years and previously in a private family collection During that time highly respected Rosneath Engineering of East Sussex have undertaken much work including annual servicing as well as the most recent one in February 2016 with fewer than 500 miles travelled since A positive fivepage safety check also accompanies this service report The exhaust manifold is a mild steel item feeding into a stainless steel exhaust running the length of the car New shock absorbers can be found to the front whilst the rear ones and the self levellers were reconditioned a few years ago as well as many other items illustrating the care with which this example has undergone All paperwork and invoices including handbook can be found within the history file as well as a new MoT test certificate In good order throughout and supercool this Ferrari 400i represents an extremely sound example of its type

The RType is the second series of postwar Bentley motorcars and replaced the Mk VI Essentially a largerboot version of the Mk VI the R type is regarded by some as a stopgap before the introduction of the Sseries cars in 1955 As with its predecessor a standard body was available as well as coachbuilt versions by firms including HJMulliner Park Ward Harold Radford Freestone and Webb and others Even by this date there was little difference other than the radiator grilles and the carburation between the standard Bentley RType and the Rolls Royce Silver Dawn though Bentley was still the more popular sporting marque Indeed the vast majority of cars produced were Bentleys with some 2500 units manufactured during the RTypes run During development it was referred to as the Bentley Mk VII even the chassis cards for these cars describe them as Bentley 7s The RType name which is now usually applied stems from chassis series RT The front of the saloon model was identical to the Mk VI but the boot was almost doubled in capacity and the engine increased in displacement from 4 to 4 litresThis automatic Bentley RType has been sourced from a large collection and presents well with black over grey coachwork and Blood Red leather trim Originally registered on 9th March 1954 this elegant example has spent much of its recent life in Ireland and boasts a wealth of servicing and maintenance bills covering the past 17 years Although clearly restored a number of years ago this example could now benefit from some further light restoration work with the trim just passing the patina stage and the woodwork although complete in need of some treatment but by no means in poor condition Attractively estimated this very usable example has character and charm in abundance and represents a great opportunity to own and enjoy a 1950s Bentley
