1970 Lotus Elan Sprint DHC

Lot # 426 (Sale Order: 27 of 60)

Make: LotusModel: Elan SprintYear: 1970Body Style: OtherRegistration: FYN 924JChassis Number: 7006140170GEngine - Displacement: 1558Cylinders: 4-Cyl.Transmission Type/Speeds: OtherEstimate - Range: 40,000 - 50,000Guide Price: (+13.2% premium inc. VAT@20%)

In 1962 Lotus launched a legend, the new and ground-breaking Lotus Elan. Following on from the Elite, the new car offered improved handling and better performance. Below the bonnet sat a new 1558cc, twin-cam four-cylinder engine which would become a legend in its own right, powering other classic Lotus models including, of course, the Cortina sporting saloons.The desirable Elan ‘Sprint' was officially introduced in 1971 and was the ultimate incarnation. It justified its name thanks to a substantial increase in power to 126bhp resulting from the adoption of a big-valve head with high-lift cams, a raised compression ratio and (initially) Weber 40 DCOE 31s. The drivetrain was suitably toughened and braced and the front callipers were redesigned to cope with the increased performance. In the time between the public announcement of the Sprint at the 1970 October Earls Court Motor Show and the official launch of the car in February 1971, there was frantic activity at the factory. With the motoring public clamouring for the more powerful Elan, the decision was made to convert a small number of 'SE' S4s to Sprint specification at the factory. From the VIN records it appears there was no logical order to the selection of which S4 cars were converted and in March 1992, the then Lotus archivist, Michael Pomfret, claimed that just 79 S4s were converted to Sprint specification in early 1971, the last on 27th March. These factory-converted cars, known colloquially in Lotus circles as ‘S4/Sprints’, often retained the bonnet bulge from the S4. Today, the cars from this select group are much sought-after due to their rarity and pioneering role in the story of the ultimate Elan. According to its accompanying Lotus Certificate of Vehicle Provenance, the car presented here was only the 8th example of an S4 to be factory-converted to Sprint specification. It was built in June 1970, receiving its upgrade shortly after, before being sold through Hammonds & Oakwood Ltd. of Beckenham. In the car’s history file, there is its original green VE.60 Registration Book plus a letter from the Lotus Archive Department, which combine to tell us it was bought by a Mr E Watters of Penshurst on the 6th April 1971, being first registered on the 22nd April 1971. The car is believed to have been enjoyed by only one more owner, before being acquired in circa 1996 by a senior Lotus technician at renowned Lotus specialists Paul Matty Sports Cars. During the next 18 years of his ownership, the car was used regularly but maintained to a very good standard. Our vendor bought the car in 2014, with a corresponding invoice from Paul Matty Sports Cars Ltd. documenting the chassis and engine numbers as per the Certificate of Vehicle Provenance and current V5C. Impressed by the car’s pedigree, our vendor thought it worthy of a complete restoration, and this was duly commenced, taking almost three years and costing in excess of £30,000, as supported by many invoices. As is not uncommon with Elans, the original chassis – found to still have its chalked-on chassis number intact – was past saving, and an invoice in the file confirms that a genuine galvanised Lotus replacement chassis has now been fitted. All elements of the car have been cleaned, renewed and reassembled and where this wasn’t possible, items were replaced with genuine new parts including a new fuel tank. The engine and gearbox were stripped down and found to be in very good condition, before being professionally refreshed and serviced. The bodywork was restored and finished in its original colour scheme of Carnival Red / Cirrus White, made famous as the livery of the 'Gold Leaf Team Lotus' Formula One cars of the late 1960s and 1970s. A new fabric hood was fitted along with a set of new carpets and new trim. The overall result, as can be seen from the photographs, is amazing. The little Lotus is so pretty that you wouldn't know whether to drive it or hang it on the kitchen wall!The car is accompanied by the history file containing invoices from the rebuild, a photographic record of the work, original Registration Book and spare keys. Quite rightly, the Lotus Elan is today regarded as one of the finest British sports cars of all time and the Sprint is, perhaps, the ultimate model. This immaculate example is an S4/Sprint convertible, possibly the rarest of all.

Firmly placed in Ferrari's history as one of their finest big GTs, the 550 Maranello's combination of its stylish Pininfarina lines and front mounted 12-cylinder engine meant that this car had the potential to become an instant classic, following in the footsteps of its forebear, the 365 GTB/4 'Daytona'. 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 by Stratstone of Wilmslow on 28th May 1999 to a Mr R. Walker of Northwich, Cheshire and has been enjoyed by four owners in total. Finished in Grigio Titanio, the interior is trimmed in grey leather with a black dashboard and black carpets throughout. The history file accompanying the car is thoroughly detailed and shows this 550M has been well maintained throughout. The service book shows the following: SpecialistDateMileageStratstone of Wilmslow17.1.004,490 milesEvans Halshaw28.5.01 5,444 milesEvans Halshaw 19.4.028,905 miles Graypaul 15.5.039,811 miles Graypaul 5.5.0412,695 miles Graypaul 9.6.0514,473 miles Kent High Performance 20.10.0616,255 miles Kent High Performance 19.5.08 18,600 miles Kent High Performance 27.6.11 21,251 miles Kent High Performance 8.7.14 23,320 miles Kent High Performance 7.1.15 23,351 miles AE Performance Engineering 28.1.16 24,139 miles AE Performance Engineering 5.4.17 24,514 milesIn our fastidious vendor's care, the car has seen infrequent use but has been maintained to the highest standard regardless - a tracker has been fitted, the aftermarket exhaust removed and a correct OEM part installed, and a new set of tyres fitted.

When the Porsche 964 was first introduced in 1989, Porsche made a point of the fact that it was 85% different from the outgoing 911. The design featured more integrated bumpers and a host of mechanical changes, most significant of which was the introduction of four-wheel drive. The displacement was now up to 3600cc, producing 250bhp, power steering and ABS brakes were now fitted as standard, and the torsion bar rear suspension was replaced with coil springs and shock absorbers. This UK-supplied 911 C2 Coupé was delivered new on 1st August 1990 by Ian Anthony of Wilmslow and has an odometer reading today of just 12,000 miles. Factory option codes included Tiptronic transmission, Blaupunkt radio, amplifier, sports seats, rear window wiper, sun-moon-roof and board computer.This vehicle is without question one of the finest 964s we have offered in recent years. The coachwork is finished in classic Guards Red and the car has never been painted. The Linen Leather interior is presented in beautiful condition and still retains a new-car smell. The engine bay is in stunning order and the car has a current MoT until October 2017. In addition, the original service book shows stamps from 1992, 1994, 1996 and 2011 at 10,924 miles.The UK registration certificate shows a mere two previous owners from new and the car has most recently formed part of one of the UK's most significant private Porsche collections. We encourage pre-sale inspections on this incredible 911 and urge prospective bidders to come and see this car in the metal. As the 964 continues to grow in popularity amongst tuners and restorers, finding an unmolested example such as this one is becoming extremely difficult.

The futuristic looking 'Fintail’, launched Mercedes-Benz to new levels of sales worldwide. It was an amazing success mostly due to its simple and square contours, although it is not remembered for its looks, more for its reliability, durability, and excellent Teutonic engineering standards. It ended nearly a full decade of the Ponton family (1953–1962), thanks to which, Mercedes-Benz went from a ruined post-WWII marque to a world leader in the automotive industry. It was succeeded by the W116, the first model to carry an 'S-Class' in the range, a name that is now synonymous with luxury and innovation. Offered here is an exceedingly rare Mercedes-Benz 230S 'Universal' in original right-hand drive form and it's possibly one of just three UK estates ever produced. In 1967, it was delivered by the factory to IMA of Mechelen Belgium, the coach works that converted Mercedes-Benz saloons to estates for the German market. When finished, it was supplied through the UK dealer network as a special-order vehicle and, at the time, would have been incredibly expensive at around three times the price of an equivalent estate from Ford or Vauxhall, so was only of interest to a very few well-heeled individuals on this side of the Channel. This particular Universal is rarer still being based on the Series II fitted with the signature stacked twin headlights of the later Saloon and Coupé models produced until 1972.It has been part of a small Mercedes-Benz collection owned by a true enthusiast who recognized the rarity of the Universal several years ago. Still carrying its original UK attractive registration number, he acquired the Mercedes from Peter Jones, a prominent figure in the M-B Owners Club. One of the features of this Universal is the fitting of a third row of seats by IMA making it a true 7-seater and may well have led to the factory adding just such a conversion to their options list in years to come. It retains its original Ivory steering wheel, dashboard knobs, and its period Blaupunkt radio During the previous owners tenure-ship, the engine has been uprated to a 2.8-litre unit making this stylish estate a true performer. The car looks splendid and appears to stand 'all-square'. It's finished in Dunkelblau and presumably, the interior has been restored at some stage as the Sky Blue leather and Cornflower Blue carpets look excellent. Complete with a full MOT.This beautiful timeless classic has to be the ultimate seven-seater estate and would grace any event worldwide. Original and usable, get the picnic sets out and let's get off to Goodwood.!

The European Touring Car Championship of the early 1970s encouraged a number of performance-orientated manufacturers to build some rare and exciting 'homologation specials', notably Ford with their Escort and Capri derivatives and BMW with their CSL.Standing for 'Coupé Sport Leicht', it was indeed light - with an aluminium bonnet, boot and doors, reduced trim and lighter sports seats, all of which resulted in a weight saving of over 300lbs (136 kgs), even on the road car! The race versions created even more highly evocative images (think Hans Stuck flying at the 'Flugplatz' ) with an excess of dramatic spoilers on the front, rear and even on the roof! Only 250 were built and they were hugely successful in period, gaining cult status amongst racing fans all over the world.This CSL was sold new in the UK on 21st March 1973. Purchased by our vendor in 2011, he had the bodywork fully stripped to bare metal and the car painted in the period-correct colour of Taiga Green by '355 Automobile Restorations International'. Pictures of the work are available in the history file. The mechanicals including the engine, suspension and gearbox were all reassembled by the Ferrari specialist SMDG. More recently, the car has been maintained by RH Classics and used on high days and holidays.The bodywork presents very well indeed with straight panel gaps and a deep finish to the paint. The chrome is in good order and the engine bay is extremely clean. A huge amount of work has been recently completed on the interior and it now looks fantastic. The wood veneer has been restored, the seats re-trimmed and the finished product is a joy to behold.The history file shows this CSL has had 8 former keepers and there are older bills and receipts from BMW specialists Jaymic, BMW Guildford and Munich Spares.Reading an un-substantiated but believed genuine 75,000 miles, we welcome pre-sale inspections on this cult classic. A rare opportunity to acquire a true homologation special that is now highly sought-after amongst collectors around the world.

To many, these seventies' pillarless coupés were the most beautiful ever to leave Jaguar. This Daimler Double-Six, the flagship of the entire Jaguar / Daimler range, was 309th built of a worldwide production of just 407 cars and with just over 33,300 miles indicated this is potentially the finest example of a Double-Six it is possible to own. Originally registered as an 'S' Suffix, XPE 808S on 26th October 1977, BXI 22 is finished in the very best colour combination of Regency Red with Biscuit Leather and Black Vinyl Roof.It was shown at the Regent St. Motor Show in November 2016 by its current owner, who acquired the car in 2015 to go with his extensive collection of Jaguars and Daimlers. He sought the very best money could buy, and this was it. Almost entirely original it reflects the ownership it has enjoyed for most of its life. Its last two owners have maintained it with minimal use, and its longest custodian owned it for 26 years during which time it was cherished, dry stored and never taken out in the rain. During this owner's usage, the car covered less than three thousand miles in over a quarter of a century.This Daimler has a substantial history file, which includes a large file of MOTs, as well as various communications between owners and interested parties. From studying these we have established that the car was originally the property of a wealthy London family, from whom the car was purchased by Devon Car Sales of Ashburton in 1983. Specialists in the supply of prestige and executive motor vehicles, it had a mileage of 12,500 with history to support. During the following three years, it was sold by DCS to a number of local Devon owners including to a local Barrister, showing just 22,000 miles. DCS then sold it for their final time in 1986 to a purchaser with 28,000 miles registered.The Mot at the time showed just 27,437 miles. Upon acquiring the car in 1986 Mr Griffith established all of the above via DCS and has noted their comment "Absolutely genuine and exceptional car. Short of one never used, it is as fine an example as one is ever likely to find"Mr Griffiths, having searched for the Holy Grail of Double-Sixes, finally found this one through a renowned classic and historic dealer in Hertford Heath, having rejected many others previously. The mileage was supported with an MOT in September that year of 29,227 miles. In 1989, the car was taken to a Jaguar specialist in Leicester, with the task of bringing this nine-year-old car back to showroom condition, ‘correcting anything that you find wrong’. There is a supporting invoice showing 30,551 miles and it was at this time the BXI22 number plate was attached to the car. Before parting with the car, the owner acquired a thorough Independent Inspection and Report, which contained only a few advisories and the purchasers attended to these as shown in the file. This owner had kept the car for 26 years before it was acquired by its penultimate owner in 2012. Our vendor acquired the car in 2015 as part of a similar search to Mr Griffith almost 30 years earlier.This car, showing just 33,361 miles, has not been through a total restoration as is the case in most similar cars but is presented as almost certainly one of the most original cars still in existence.

The Porsche 930 Turbo was a genuine 'Supercar' that defined the Seventies and Eighties and was one of the fastest production cars available at the time. It was first seen at the 1973 Paris Auto Show and full production commenced two years later. The basic engine underpinnings came from the Carrera 2.7RS which was increased to 3.0 Litres and, of course, turbocharged with technology gleaned from Porsche's 917/30 Can-Am programme. The bodywork received special treatment to produce one of the most aggressive looking Porsches ever made with its wide arches and impressive rear whale-tail and the brakes came directly from the Porsche 917 race car. The final evolution of the 930 Turbo saw the engine capacity increased to 3299cc, with improved upgrades to the intercooler and the fitting of the vastly superior G50 transmission. By 1989, the final year of production, the power had risen to 330bhp and rose again to an impressive 380bhp for the 'Limited Edition' model.This original right-hand drive, 930 Turbo Limited Edition (LE) was sold new on the 1st August 1989 by Rivervale, Berkshire. The factory option sticker under the bonnet shows it was supplied with the following option codes: heated seats (139), locking limited slip diff (220), shorter gear shift lever (243), sunroof (650) and velour carpeting (975). The original service booklet and wallet show 18 stamps from various specialists such as RGL, JAZ and Porsche themselves. There are a large number of bills and receipts in the history folder 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 Cream 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, a fresh MoT Certificate, and a spare key, we welcome any inspection on this vehicle. 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 930 Turbo was in production for an incredible 14 years and is the epitome of supercar design. The last 50 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.

1971 Mercedes-Benz 280SE 3.5 CoupÃ©

The 3.5-litre version of the 280SE typifies the resurgence of larger-engined Mercedes-Benz models that began in the late 1960s and early 1970s, when the progressive easing of fiscal constraints, which had dissuaded customers from buying cars with large capacity engines, encouraged the German manufacturer to offer bigger, more potent power units. Thus, the ultra-luxurious 280SE Coupé/Cabriolet and 300SEL saloon were the models chosen by Mercedes-Benz to launch its magnificent new 3.5-litre V8 engine in 1969. An over-square design featuring a cast-iron block and aluminium alloy cylinder heads, each equipped with a single overhead camshaft, this all-new, state-of-the-art power unit produced 200bhp courtesy of Bosch electronic fuel injection and transistorised ignition. Thus equipped, the Coupé/Cabriolet was good for 125mph with 60mph whispering by in 9.5 seconds, a substantial improvement on the six-cylinder version's figures. Although the equivalent SEL Saloon used the 'New Generation' bodyshell, the Coupé and Cabriolet kept the elegant coachwork that had debuted back in 1959 on the 220SE and, as befitted top-of-the-range luxury models came equipped with automatic transmission, air conditioning, power windows and stereo radio as standard. Significantly, the 280SE 3.5 was to be the final model to feature this long-established and much-admired body style, and today these last-of-the-line classics are highly sought after by discerning Mercedes-Benz collectors. But it’s not just their rarity that makes them so desirable since they also represent some of the quickest Mercedes of that era. The most prestigious of the 280SE Coupé and Cabriolet variants is the 3.5 litre V8 model made for just two years from 1969 to 1971, the majority of these in left-hand drive. Offered here is a beautifully original, UK supplied, RHD 1971 280SE Coupé delivered new to Highgate London in August 1971 to a Marie McDonald Mc Laughlin Gibb better known by her stage name Lulu and the then wife of Maurice Gibb of the Bee Gees. She is internationally identified with hits such as ’Shout’, 'To Sir with Love’, and Eurovision success with ' Boom Bang-a-Bang'’. She also sang the title song to the James Bond movie ‘’The man with the Golden Gun’’. Without doubt a sixties (and seventies) pop icon, she was awarded an OBE in 2000 by the Queen and is now known as Lulu Kennedy-Cairns OBE. She kept this Coupé for approximately three years with the second owner, an Arabian businessman domiciled in London, selling it to its present owner, our vendor who has cherished and enjoyed ownership of this significant Mercedes for nearly thirty-eight years. At the time, around Christmas 1981, whilst living in the fashionable West End he noticed the Coupé advertised in the Sunday Times by the exuberant motor trader John Lewis of Heathmans Row/ Kings Road Chelsea.Whilst in our vendor's ownership, a renowned collector of all things Mercedes, the 280SE has been maintained to an excellent standard. Only two respected marque specialists have cared for it throughout his thirty-eight-year ownership. Initially, service work was carried out by Schmitt Automobiles in St John's Wood. After a trip to Germany to have the Behr air conditioning fitted, as per factory installations, Die Autoschmiede undertook a restoration of the underside including both sills and then attended to the steering, ensuring this elegant coupe drives faultlessly todayIt is still fitted with the original sunroof and with its Becker Mexico radio cassette player and we imagine that Mrs Marie Gibb would frequently have popped in a ' Saturday Night Fever' cassette to listen to her husband Maurice and his brothers.Motor tax exempt and with a full MOT, this three owner car is a very usable example of a timeless classic with the cachet of sixties icon ownership.NB. Our vendor advises us that the air conditioning may need recommissioning.

The Porsche 911 (996) GT3 is the spiritual successor to the original '73 Carrera RS. It was designed to be lightweight and performance focused with scant regard to luxury and comfort items that would add to the car's weight but detract from its performance. It's also the basis of the modern day 'Carrera Cup Car' which Porsche race worldwide in their own ‘one make' series, and was produced in sufficient numbers to comply with the FIA homologation requirements necessary for the 911 to compete in the GT3 Class in International Sportscar Racing, where it had great success. Silverstone Auctions are big fans of the Porsche GT3 and this right-hand drive generation II example is no exception. The car was supplied new by Porsche Cars Great Britain on 21st May 2004 and has covered just over 64,750 miles from new with four previous owners. The current owner bought the car from respected Porsche specialist RS911 in Wales and it has been the subject of significant expenditure since. Over £30,000 was spent with RPM Technik on mechanical work alone! Specifically, the suspension has been totally overhauled to achieve an even more track-focused 911 that can be driven to the circuit and then driven home afterwards.Finished in Polaris Silver with black interior, the car has been stored in a temperature-controlled environment and is described as in immaculate condition. Supplied with a large history file detailing expenditure, this GT3 will be coming to the auction fresh from an engine service with RS911, with new spark plugs and filters. With a no-expense-spared maintenance record, the driving experience is said to be exceptional. Offered with a fresh MOT Certificate, this Porsche is ready to be used and enjoyed by its next owner.

Introduced at the 1973 Paris Motor Show, the Dino 308 GT4 was a significant departure for Ferrari in several ways. It was the first production car from Modena to feature a mid-engined V8, a layout that would become common to their core range for decades to come, along with the first production model to feature Bertone styling rather than Pininfarina bodywork. The styling was controversial at the time, with some journalists comparing it to the Bertone-designed Lancia Stratos and Lamborghini Urraco. The chassis was based on the Dino 246 but was stretched to make space for a 2+2 configuration. The 3.0-litre V8 was integrally joined with the gearbox and had an alloy block and heads with dual overhead camshafts fed through 4 Weber 40 DCNF carburettors. As is often the way, Bertone's styling effort probably looks better now than it ever has, but at the time, the proportions gave traditionalists an attack of the vapours. For all this, the car was a huge success being bigger and more usable than any other mid-engine car had managed or would manage for a while. More than 3,600 were sold, dwarfing sales of V12 models and showing Ferrari the way forward. Today, these '70s Ferraris have come of age with their classic looks and brilliant handling and are as fast as you are ever going to need in the real world, with a top speed of over 150mph and a 0-60mph acceleration time of 6.4 seconds. PTN 516R is a UK, right-hand drive car finished in Giallo Fly with a Cream cloth interior and was first registered on 01/01/1977, presumably to take advantage of the suffix change at the start of the year. It has currently covered 65,970 miles and the details of its long and interesting life can be gleaned from the ownership file which is about as comprehensive as we have ever seen. The car was fully prepped and subject to a bare metal repaint between 08/02/1998 and 11/02/1999 and photographs of this process are in the history file. The cambelts were done 2,900 miles ago in 2012, the clutch was replaced two years later, and at c500 miles between MOTs, it simply isn't being used enough.Along with the pics from the respray, the ownership file contains nigh on 40 years of invoices relating to parts and servicing, all its MOTs, a number of old tax discs, a maintenance folder, workshop manual, spares catalogue, and a 308GT4 instruction book. Also included with the car are both sets of keys and a copy of the July edition of Classic and Sportscar featuring Ferraris and highlighting PTN 516R in the "One to buy” column(page 226). During their road-test, C&SC observed that "There is no rust, even in the doors, the motor is nicely detailed with no leaks" and "It starts easily and drives well".The 308 GT4 has been a bit of an underdog for many years but, as a drivers' car, is superb in every way and has earned the right to call itself "A Ferrari". Recent results have witnessed a lift in prices as the collectors' car world wakes up to the potential of these great little Ferraris.

1975 Porsche 911 2.7 MFI

Introduced in 1974 and made until 1977, the 911 2.7MFI was manufactured in similar numbers to its earlier sibling - the 2.7 Carrera RS. However, right-hand drive production of the MFI was very limited and just 48 cars exist worldwide today. Weighing just 1075 kilograms and equipped with the 210bhp, 2687cc Type 911/83 air cooled flat 6 engine, incorporating Bosch mechanical fuel injection - hence "MFI"- it was the pinnacle of the performance derivatives of the G-Series chassis.Its performance was excellent, quicker in fact than any 911 produced before or after it for the next decade. 0-60mph took just 5 seconds and the car would continue to accelerate up to over 150mph. Today, just 21 UK right-hand drive Coupé examples exist on the Carrera 2.7MFI registry and this one was supplied on the 13th November 1975 by Swinford Motors of Stourbridge.Still finished in its original colour combination of Ice Green with black half leather, and with its original engine and gearbox, this matching numbers, UK example is fresh from a complete restoration and repaint. The detailed restoration took many months to complete and all the key original panels were retained, including the sills and floor pans, with great care and attention to detail to preserve the originality and authenticity of this 55,000 mile car. Renowned Porsche specialists, RS 911, were responsible for the detailed strip, rebuild and repaint, whilst the rebuild of the engine, gearbox and diff were entrusted to Phil Hindley's highly respected Tech 9 Motorsport in Liverpool.Additionally, the suspension, brakes and wiring were all refurbished or replaced by RS 911 and the standard of this particular restoration must be seen today to be fully appreciated. The car represents an extremely rare investment opportunity, particularly at this price guide, for the astute Porsche collector and Silverstone Auctions are proud of their association with this very special car.The comprehensive history file includes many invoices past and present, as well as previous MOT certificates and photographic documentation of the restoration. The original service books, original tools, original radio, 3 keys, etc all accompany the car and we invite independent inspections on request prior to the Sale.

The world famous E-Type was introduced in 1961 at the Geneva Motor Show. It was initially designed and shown to the public as a rear-wheel drive grand tourer in a two-seater coupé form and later in a convertible body style. The 2+2 version with a lengthened wheelbase was released several years later. Throughout the life span of the E-Type, it has been regarded as one of the most iconic automobile design icons of the 1960s. At launch, even Enzo Ferrari was quoted as saying it was " the most beautiful car in the world".Here we have one of the last of the Series I Jaguar E-Types, built as a more practical 2 plus 2, that was first registered in 1967. It is a UK supplied right-hand drive car with the original engine and gearbox and is offered as a "matching numbers" example.The car has had an earlier, but very thorough, restoration between 1989 and 1997 which the history file confirms was a thorough and comprehensive job, with all relevant invoices and a complete photographic record on file. The current registered keeper has had the car since 1997 and maintained it properly throughout his ownership. In fact, this car has only had two former keepers from new. Well worthy of a close inspection, this Lot is both an affordable and original E-Type that is highly usable and ideal to take the kids with you when required. It comes with 12 months MOT and a complete history file.

This, very special, 1987 RS500 (No 387) has covered less than 11,000 miles and has enjoyed a very quiet life for the last 26 years. Number 387, went to Tickford on the 21st July 1987 with 8 miles on the clock, exiting on the 28th July 1987 with 22 miles indicated. It was supplied initially by Haynes of Maidstone to its first keeper, a very proud Mr. K P Souter, a local businessman who ran the Cosworth for 13 months. It then became the property of one of the world's wealthiest men who had extensive business interests in Ireland and India and he and his family used this particular car only very occasionally when they were staying at his English country estate, although it was to remain in his ownership for the next 29 years. The family ran the car for three years before parking it in one of their estate garages in late 1991, where it remained untouched for some 26 years. During their tenure, the car was MOT’d on the 12th September 1991 with a recorded mileage of 10,067. The second chapter in this RS500's life began in April 2017 when it was rescued by Cosworth specialist John Taylor who was tasked with returning the car to its best. This work included a comprehensive engine service with all fluids and belts changed (original belts retained and boxed), a full flush of the fuel system, as well as a thorough brake service. The only items that have been changed are the front and rear brake discs and pads (original items retained) for safety purposes, the fuel tank (sediment from old fuel evaporation), and a new battery. The vehicle has also been independently checked and MOT’d prior to being offered for auction.The focus of John Taylor's recommissioning was to present the car in its original unrestored condition, whilst being mechanically sound. All the glass is correct and both dated (1986) and etched with the vehicle's registration number. All panels are also original, as are the wheels still wearing their original Dunlop D40s and knock-on wheel weights from new, the spare wheel having never been used still showing its original manufacturing marks. We understand that the electrics work fully, and the engine runs sweetly.The interior is in excellent condition. The dashboard and door cards are unmarked with no evidence of cracking, the steering wheel still shows its original white stitching, and the seatbelts with vibrant red push buttons have not faded. The boot appears never to have been used. Service history with the car includes the 1,500-mile service carried out by Haynes of Maidstone at the recorded mileage of 817on the 9th November 1987 and the service sheet remains with the service book detailing the checks undertaken at the time. The next service was carried out by MJA Auto Group on the 24th October 1988 at a recorded mileage of 4,428. Within the cars history file are the 'Ford Safety' recall documentation, all driver's handbooks presented in the original Haynes white folder, copies of the DVLA paperwork from first registration to current date, along with a parking ticket dated 2nd June 1990 issued by Surrey Constabulary, a period 'International Driving Permit' for its famous owner, an insurance cover note from 1988, and two old tax discs. Sporty cars of the Eighties and Nineties are becoming increasingly sought after and are some of the fastest appreciating classics in the current market, with the appetite for well kept, low volume Fords, in particular, showing no signs of abating. Now offered for sale for effectively the first time, this lovely Cosworth RS500 is about as close to original as you will ever find and is an absolute must for the astute collector and enthusiast, as well as being tremendous fun to drive.

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 365 GTB/4 gained its ‘Daytona' moniker from 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 moniker. The 4.4-litre 4-cam V12 produced an astonishing 352bhp and was billed as 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.Silverstone Auctions are delighted to offer this exceptional and famously owned Ferrari 365GTB/4 Daytona, finished in Rosso Chiaro with Black interior as per the manufacturer's specification. Delivered new on the 3rd August 1972 through Maranello Concessionaires Ltd, this confirmed matching numbers example 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 Mr Elton John, of 14 Abbots Drive, Wentworth, Surrey, as the recorded owner and keeper of the car from 1973-1975. It is believed that Sir Elton purchased the Daytona off the back of his single success and release of his famed album ‘Goodbye Yellow Brick Road". Ownership history is fully known and has been made up of Ferrari Owners' Club member-owners. The last 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 has been trimmed in factory specification Black VM8500 Connolly Vaumol hide and complete with correct Ferrari supplied punched, holed inserts.The Daytona's V12 engine fires instantly into life and with an original power output of 352bhp, capable of 175mph, the car has blistering performance for its age. The gearbox changes effortlessly through the 5-speed range and the car is simply a joy to drive whether on the open highway or in town. To aid the stopping power Ferrari fitted servo-assisted brakes to the four-wheel ventilated disc brakes. Air conditioning was optional and was fitted at the factory on this car, but elsewhere the Daytona remained focused on delivering nothing less than a superlative high-performance driving experience.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 with a complete set of original MoT certificates to support its genuine mileage of 81,675 miles and has benefitted from a recent full service and inspection, refurbishment of the original magnesium wheels, and new Michelin XWX tyres. We encourage pre-sale inspections and welcome prospective bidders to contact the office for further details on this very special UK Daytona with a pure rock and roll history.Picture Credit: Tim Scott - Fluid Images

The 3.0 Carrera was sold between 1976-1977 and sat neatly between the standard 911 and the 930 Turbo. During that short period, only 3,687 cars were produced which was a very small number compared to nearly 58,000 911SCs and 76,500 3.2 Carreras that were manufactured. This stunning 1977 Porsche 911 3.0 Carrera Coupé is a rare and original, UK delivered, ‘Sport’ model and we believe there are probably less than 40 right-hand drive “true factory built” Carrera 3.0 Sports in Britain.The engine was developed from the power plant in the very rare Carrera 3.0RS, of which only 109 were built. It produces 200 bhp at 6000 rpm and has 188 lb/ft of torque at 4200 rpm resulting in almost identical 0-60 and 0-100mph performance figures to the original 2.7RS and 2.7 Carreras.This lovely Carrera Sport was first registered on the 23rd April of 1977, to a Mr W. H Cowling of Uckfield by supplying dealer Malaya Garage, Billinghurst. It's finished in Minerva Blue (W9W9) with Black Leatherette inlaid with Tartan cloth, a really popular period choice.The 'Sport Option Pack' was a list of M-Codes available only in the UK and included front and rear spoilers, the ubiquitous Whale Tail, anodised aluminium in place of chrome trim, Bilstein dampers, sports seats, and wider Fuchs alloys.Accompanying the car is a large ring binder containing a very impressive quantity of history dating back to the early eighties. It includes a number of older MOTs dating back to 1980, a fully stamped Service Book, and the Porsche Certificate of Authenticity. The indicated mileage is 108,082 which we believe to be correct, supported by the continuous MOTs.

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.We are pleased to offer this particular 911 S 2.2 Coupe which was manufactured in February 1970 in left-hand drive form and was subsequently delivered to the USA where is was sold to its first owner in March of that year. Specifications and options at that time included a black leatherette interior, front and rear spoiler delete and tinted side glass and windshield. First registered in the UK on 9th September 2000, this car was sourced by our vendor, himself a serial Porsche owner for the last 20 years, who purchased it in January 2011. This 'matching numbers' car is finished in Ivory White with a black interior and whilst the body and paintwork were in excellent condition, our vendor felt other areas of the car could be improved upon.The car was sent to respected marque specialist JAZ Porsche who removed the engine and gearbox. The top ancillaries were stripped off and items powder coated/replaced where necessary. The carburettors were sent away to a specialist for a full rebuild at the same time. The gearbox was stripped and all 5 synchros were replaced, before being reassembled and mated to the engine once again. New engine mounts, fuel hoses and a fuel pump were also fitted at this time for which there are invoices included in the file.The car was then sent to Sportwagen where it had some minor cosmetic work and new front and rear torsion bars, along with new rear shock absorbers. New Rennsport Sports seats with black corduroy centres were fitted, giving the interior a stylish look. The result of all this focused effort is a remarkable car with quality paintwork and excellent panel gaps. It retains its original aluminium engine lid and, unlike most US-cars of this era, the original dashboard remains straight and crack-free. The gauges have been restored and we believe the Blaupunkt 'Frankfurt' radio is period correct and original to the car.Our vendor comments that this 911 S 2.2 is "a true pleasure to drive with its rev-happy feel. The engine starts easily, pulls strongly through the rev range with a tight ride, excellent handling and braking. The five-speed dog-leg changes smoothly and is truly addictive."Supplied with a good history file, a Porsche Certificate of Authenticity, its original drivers manual, and a jack and toolkit, this matching numbers car is MOT tested until 8th February 2018. With 911S 2.2s becoming increasingly rare in the market place, this quality example would make a sensible investment, or is simply ready to be driven as intended.

1973 BMW 3.0 CSL

The 3.0 CSL is a lightweight, performance-oriented version of the standard 3.0 CS/3.0 CSi coupé. Utilising the E9 platform, the 3.0 CSL was unveiled at the 1971 Geneva Motor Show and was introduced in May 1972 as a homologation model for the German Touring Car Championship developed by a separate division within BMW AG, a division that would later become BMW Motorsport GmbH.The CSL achieved some great results, with wins at Le Mans in the touring car class in 1973 and 1974, the IMSA GT Championship in 1975, and winning the European Touring Car Championships every year from 1973 to 1979 (apart from a minor blip in 1974).The "L" in the designation meant leicht (light), unlike in other BMW designations, where it meant lang (long). A total of 1,096 CSLs were built, with just 500 of these being imported into the UK. The great majority of UK cars had the ‘City Package’ option fitted, designed to make the 3.0 CSL more usable as a daily driver. These versions retained the standard interior trim, negating the total weight saving somewhat, but the other benefits were retained, including aero kit, thinner gauge steel, and aluminium parts. Early CSLs, produced in late 1971 and early 1972, utilised the standard 2,985cc M30 inline-6 engine with twin carburetors and were only offered in LHD. They were replaced by a fuel-injected model displacing 3,003cc available in RHD during late 1972 and early 1973. The final cars, all LHD and with a larger fuel-injected 3,153cc engine, were built in two distinct production runs during late 1973 and 1974-75.All fuel-injected CSLs have a unique model code and chassis number sequence. Fuel-injected CSLs with the 3.0-litre motor have VINs that run from 2275001 through 2275429 (left-hand drive version) and 2285001 through 2285500 (right-hand drive version).The car presented here is a 1973 BMW CSL 3.0 (model 3452), and is a genuine, right-hand drive, UK-specification model (Chassis # 2285416), thus being the 416th RHD CSL model produced, and one of only 151 such examples imported in 1973. It was first registered on the 3rd August 1973, finished in Polaris Metallic with the obligatory black Scheel sports seats upholstered in cloth with leatherette bolsters. We understand the car has had just four previous owners; however, the last two were in the same family, owning the car collectively for the last 30 years. It is believed the car was put into heated dry storage in 1997 when its owner at the time was working overseas, and unfortunately, the car’s service book was misplaced during this period. REC 400M was purchased by our BMW-enthusiast vendor because of its exceptional condition, appearing rust-free and a matching numbers example, and he commissioned a complete bare-metal professional restoration. With the car being so unspoiled, many original parts were simply cleaned, renewed and reinstalled. Where this wasn’t possible, genuine new-old-stock BMW parts were used. The result is simply stunning, a best-of-both-worlds car – bringing collectively a sense of real authenticity plus the reassurance that every component is as good as it could be. Now being sold due to a change in circumstances from a small collection of other classic cars, this stunning CSL is simply not to be missed. These low production, homologation BMW CSLs often feature as a choice in car enthusiasts’ ‘dream garage’ scenario, and it’s with good reason – beautifully engineered machines that have that special feel, unique to BMW.More photos to follow soon....

2000 recreation by Evanta Motor Co. resembling an Aston Martin DB4GT Zagato

Lot # 444 (Sale Order: 45 of 60)

For many automotive manufacturers during the 1960s, mastery in the World Sports Car Championship was high on the priority list. Aston Martin, Ford and Ferrari were battling it out at the ultimate endurance race, the 24 Hours of Le Mans and a win and second place for Aston Martin in the 1959 race ensured the sixties would become very competitive indeed. Whilst the Ferrari team succeeded in evolving their race cars, Aston Martin tried in vain with the introduction of the DB4GT, but it simply wasn’t enough.To help them conquer their Italian rivals, Aston enlisted the help, ironically, of Italian coachbuilder Carrozzeria Zagato whose brief was to use the existing DB4GT platform to produce a new car that would be more competitive than its predecessor. Launched at the 1960 London Motor Show, the new Aston Martin DB4GT Zagato was beautifully crafted and boasted a more aerodynamic body shape with a more pronounced and elongated nose and a rear end reminiscent of that of a Ferrari 250 GT SWB. Considered by many as one of the most beautiful Aston Martins ever made, Zagato were also able to shed 50 kgs of weight and add 12 bhp to the output. Only 19 of these wonderful cars were ever created, making them highly sought-after and desirable cars today – indeed, the last one to appear at auction in 2015 sold for $14.3million! Presented here is a unique take on the DB4GT Zagato which was coach built by the Evanta Motor Company based on a 2000 Aston Martin DB7 Vantage. The donor vehicle had been subject to light panel and bumper damage and hence is recorded as a Category D insurance loss, but this made it the ideal candidate to be re-bodied and modified. The relatively modern chassis and running gear should ensure reliability and the developed drivetrain will handle power delivery with the 6.0 litre V12 pushing out a whopping 420 bhp! The conversion has been carried out thoughtfully and the sumptuous red leather interior, new dashboard arrangement, new seatbelt anchor points and door cards are examples of modern design solutions in a sixties' classic. Most recently the car has been superbly painted in Aston Racing Green, reminiscent of the famous race car original ‘2 VEV’. At the same time, the car was fitted with new front springs, new front subframe mountings, new rear shock absorbers, and fresh fluids and filters. Now showing 45,540 miles on the odometer, this incredible DB4GT Zagato recreation will certainly turn heads. This actual Aston sold at auction in 2012 for 142,000 Euros, making it extremely attractive at today’s guide price and with genuine Zagatos almost unattainable and rarely coming to market, and Sanction II cars now making well north of £1 million, this fantastic 'homage' to the DB4GTZ represents a unique opportunity at a fraction of the price of the one of the original 19. Aston enthusiasts, form an orderly queue here, please……

1963 Alfa Romeo Giulia 1600 'Sprint Speciale' by Bertone

Lot # 445 (Sale Order: 46 of 60)

VAT@20%)

Launched in 1957, the Sprint Speciale was a stunning design unmistakably derived from the legendary Berlina Aerodinamica Tecnica, or B.A.T., show cars created by Carrozzeria Bertone in the mid-1950s. Those aerodynamic studies offered lots of design solutions when Alfa were considering a competition version of the Bertone-bodied Giulietta Sprint Veloce. With its extremely low drag coefficient of 0.29, the SS was aimed at motorsport, and a limited number were produced to meet FIA Homologation rules. The Speciale utilised the lightweight construction that had been so effective in the chassis design of the popular Giulietta Spider, and the coachwork was undoubtedly distinctive with its domed roofline and rounded wings. The Giulietta’s willing little 1,300cc, all-alloy, four-cylinder engine provided enough power to push the svelte two-seater coupé to almost 120 mph, which was considerably more than its conventionally bodied Sprint coupé and Spider siblings could achieve. When the 101 Series Giulia was introduced in 1962, it was powered by a 116 bhp, 1,570cc DOHC in-line, four-cylinder engine with a Weber DCOE carburettor mated to a five-speed manual transmission, and the Sprint Speciale inherited the engine, the gearbox, and the Giulia name. The pure aerodynamics applied to the design resulted in the Sprint Speciale having very low wind noise at high speeds and a top speed of over 125mph. The example offered here is from the first year of Giulia SS production. It was built on 1 October 1963, finished in the traditional Alfa Romeo Red, and just six days later, on the 7th, it was sold to the Alfa Romeo dealer in Brussels. The car is believed to have resided in Belgium for the majority of its subsequent life and it was there that it was discovered in 2006 by a previous owner. Though finished in blue with a white nose and stripe, the original colour was evident beneath the trim pieces as well as in the interior. When acquired by a later owner in 2013 the decision was taken to return the car to top form, and the SS was then subject to a comprehensive restoration beginning in 2014 and recently completed. Restored to its original colour and trimmed with matching red carpeting and two-tone red and white seats, the Alfa has also been fitted with a correct-type 1600 engine. Further photos of the car as discovered, as well as its restoration, are in the car's ownership file along with its EU Registration and NOVA details.This is a lovely example of a rare car (1 of 1,339 worldwide). The restoration looks excellent with a sufficient number of gently patinated controls etc. to stop it becoming a trailer queen and encouraging it to be driven, after all, it is an Alfa!These are pleasurable and rewarding drivers' cars with light controls and spirited competition-derived handling. Very few classics have this ability to tour so effortlessly, efficiently and in such style!

1991 Vauxhall Lotus Carlton

The Lotus Carlton is a legend and the kind of car that comes along once in a generation. At a time when really fast four-door saloons were the preserve of BMW and Mercedes, this Vauxhall (Opel) derived super-saloon arrived on the scene in 1990 demolishing the opposition. Although it shared its major components with a mainstream executive car, its level of development across every aspect of automotive dynamics had resulted in a truly special performance car.It was powered by a twin-turbo version of the venerable straight-six used in the Senator, which developed a remarkable 377bhp. To achieve that figure, Lotus had put a lot of work into the 3.6-litre power unit, uprating and strengthening the bottom end, porting the 24-valve cylinder head (from the Carlton GSI), and fitting forged 'slipper pistons' made by Mahle atop new Lotus-designed connecting rods tied to a counterweighted, forged steel crankshaft. The gearbox was the same six-speeder used in the Corvette ZR-1, the only transmission in GM's parts bin, capable of handling the car's monster torque. AP Group-C derived brakes - four-pot calipers with 330mm ventilated discs at the front and two-pot at the rear – sat behind specially developed Goodyear tyres. Based on a civilised modern saloon car, the Lotus Carlton was tractable, light and well-mannered in town traffic. However, when required, performance was nothing short of epic - 0-60mph came up in 5.0 seconds, 0-100 was dispatched in 11.1 seconds, and in 1992 Autocar Magazine recorded a time of 17.0 seconds for their 0-100-0 challenge, 2nd best behind an F40; however, it's the car's maximum speed of 176mph that will always be quoted by its fans. The lovely Carlton presented here was supplied new through SMT Vauxhall of Edinburgh in February 1991 finished in the obligatory Imperial Green. It's car Number 0030 out of a limited production of 284 UK, right-hand drive models and has covered a warranted 73,000 miles from new.Our vendor, who has many years of experience in the automotive industry, searched high and low to locate and purchase the best example he could find. This unmolested and well cared-for car fitted the bill perfectly, being particularly strong in areas of known weakness for this model. It comes with a comprehensive service history and has been serviced routinely from 9,088 miles to 54,204 miles at either ‘Monorep Ltd.’ of Southall or ‘Frost’s (Cars) Ltd.’ of Shoreham-by-Sea, both Lotus Carlton supplying dealerships and Lotus technical centres, plus three more services from independent garages up to date. It is a completely standard car, which performs as well as you’d expect, having been treated in recent times to a new clutch with related auxiliaries and a new exhaust. There are numerous receipts in the history file for maintenance and parts, and the car comes with its original numbered Lotus Carlton book (presented to each owner at the time of sale), its Maintenance Programme, build records and a genuine Workshop Manual.The product of the finest motorsport brains of the decade, these cars are still seriously quick even by today’s standards, and the opportunity to acquire such a genuine and well-maintained example of this modern classic is surely not to be missed.

1967 Mercedes-Benz 250SL 'California CoupÃ©'

Lot # 447 (Sale Order: 48 of 60)

Make: Mercedes-BenzModel: 250SLYear: 1967Body Style: HardtopRegistration: XMB 824EChassis Number: 1.13E+12Engine - Displacement: 2496Transmission Type/Speeds: 4-Speed AutomaticEstimate - Range: 50,000 - 60,000Guide Price: (+13.2% premium inc. VAT@20%)

Launched in 1963 to replace the underpowered 190SL and utilising some of the new manufacturing techniques being pioneered in the latest 'S' Class, the Paul Bracq designed 230SL was proudly unveiled to an appreciative audience at the Geneva Motor Show. Remaining in production until 1971 with around 49,000 finding homes, the W113 Class, frequently referred to as the "Pagoda", eventually spanned three engine sizes.The same show, four years later in 1967, coincidentally saw the introduction of the W113-250SL. The new car retained the stiffer suspension and sporty feel of the earlier cars, but provided improved agility with its larger(2.5Ltr.) engine and was now fitted with rear disc brakes and a larger tank. The new car was offered with a 4-speed Automatic transmission or a 4 or 5-speed ZF gearbox. Replaced in January 1968 by the 280SL, its one-year production run makes the 250SL the rarest of the W113 series. Even rarer still was the 250SL 'California Coupé' in which the folded soft top was removed and the space utilised for a fold down rear bench making the car effectively a 2+2. The hardtop was redesigned to provide more headroom and a window for rear seat passengers. The fact that if you left the hard top off, you became reliant on the weather remaining fair, meant that the majority of these coupés were sold, not surprisingly, in California. The 250SL did not sell in huge numbers during its 12 month period on the US market and as less than 10% of these were California Coupés, it follows that they were very rare in-period and particularly sought-after now.This, right-hand drive, 250 SL California Coupe is a truly fine example of its type and is finished in Tunis Beige Metallic and trimmed in black. ‘XMB 824E’ remained in the same family ownership for 35 years after which our vendor has looked after and dry stored the car, in his significant private collection, for the past three years. The car has also been treated to a major restoration of notably high quality in recent years. We’re informed this included a complete repaint during which all the brightwork was removed and either re-chromed or replaced. The interior was completely refurbished with new leather seats and carpets to the original specification, while the woodwork was restored by Chapman & Cliff in Nantwich, formerly of Rolls-Royce. The California Coupé also benefited from a top-end engine overhaul with all new valves and guides and the engine bay was refurbished while the unit was out. The car was serviced at the same time. Its factory-fitted extras include automatic transmission, power-assisted steering, 'Sundym' tinted glass all-around (a notably rare option) and a Motorola push-button radio. This pretty little Mercedes presents delightfully, and in common with every other 'Pagoda' regardless of engine size, is a timeless, blue-chip, classless 'Classic' and being an ultra-rare, right-hand drive California merits serious consideration.

There have been volumes written about the Jaguar E-Type, indeed there is no other British car, apart from perhaps the Mini, that has generated such a cult following. So it's probably more appropriate to concentrate on the many merits of this exceptional E-Type Fixed Head Coupé on offer today.This is a beautifully restored and fine example of a 1962 Series I 3.8-litre Jaguar E-Type Coupé, one of just 1,799 in right-hand drive. Built in the summer of '62 and supplied to the UK home market, this E-Type still retains its original registration mark of "801 DBU" as confirmed by the JDHT Certificate on file. An older, but comprehensive restoration has brought the car up to a fantastic overall condition with specialist maintenance since that time preserving and building upon a great basis. The evidence for all this is on file, and over the last year over £45,000 has been spent with a prominent E-Type specialist carrying out the following work: a complete interior re-trim, and a comprehensive engine rebuild (including polished and ported head, larger valves re-bore +.40, new bearings pistons etc. and lightened flywheel).Since then, it has been Dyno tested with the print-out indicating that it was producing 267bhp at the flywheel at 5500rpm. It also benefits from an upgraded 'Elite Racing' five-speed gearbox,(the original Moss gearbox is included within the sale), and complete clutch pack. It has also had a full suspension rebuild with Polyurethane bushes and Gaz dampers, as well as a 22mm vented brake kit, including Fosseway 4-pot callipers and special piston assembly at the rear. Naturally, the best EBC 'Green Stuff' pads are fitted front and rear. Finally, a new Fosseway finned (Series 1) aluminium radiator cools the engine which has a Hi-Torque starter motor fitted with a C42 Dynator, also by Fosseway, including a change to negative earth, so a Voltmeter replaces the Ammeter.Enhanced engine performance comes from an FIA Exhaust Manifold, a 2" SS exhaust system by Ecosse, and a 123 Electronic ignition system. It sits on new, triple-spoke, painted 15 x 6J wire wheels, as per 1962 spec, and new Pirelli Cinturato CA67 tyres.The paintwork has been professionally detailed and machine polished to a Concours standard. The car comes with full detailed files and photographs of all the work carried out and is also accompanied by an original Series 1 Book Pouch and owner's handbooks. As with a great number of E-Types supplied to the UK, and indeed the cooler climates of Europe, it is likely that this example was unable to escape the inevitable frost damage to its original engine block and an identical MkII 3.8 block was sourced as a replacement at some point. Mated to the original and matching numbers Cylinder Head, this fully rebuilt engine pulls with great strength and enhances the overall driving experience.In essence: a rare and beautifully restored right-hand drive Coupé that has received many sensible upgrades for greater reliability and more enjoyable driving.

1973 BMW 3.0 CSi

Lot # 449 (Sale Order: 50 of 60)

Make: BMWYear: 1973Body Style: CompactRegistration: FRN 402MChassis Number: 2264105Engine - Displacement: 3000Cylinders: 6-Cyl.Estimate - Range: 30,000 - 35,000Guide Price: (+13.2% premium inc. VAT@20%)

The post-war renaissance of BMW began in earnest in the 1960s with the introduction of two pivotal models, the compact 02-Series - the forerunner to the huge-selling 3-Series - and a larger, visually striking CS sports coupé, referred to internally as the E9, which evolved to become the 3.0 CSi, the car offered here. With its beautiful lines, purposeful stance and pillarless doors, styled by famed German coachbuilder Karmann, the CS grabbed instant attention. Powered by a superbly engineered straight six, three litre engine, this fast, sharp-handling cruiser had performance to match its looks. BMW now had a new face look that would come to define the company's image for the rest of the century.In 1971, the 3.0CS made its debut in the UK, followed swiftly by the introduction of the more powerful 3.0 CSi fuel injected version, becoming BMW's first 200bhp plus machine, giving it real on the road punch. In recent years, sale prices of its big brother, the legendary 'CSL' have dramatically risen and, not unnaturally, the CSi is beginning to follow.This, left-hand drive, matching numbers, 3.0 CSi, was originally sold new in Sweden in 1973. In more recent times, a dedicated enthusiast in Denmark has owned the car for 15 years and during his tenure has looked after it on a ‘no-expense-spared' basis. A few years ago, whilst mechanically the car was in good condition, the paint was beginning to show some age so the decision was taken to entrust this lovely coupé to the Copenhagen-based, 'Stelvio Automobili', who were tasked with restoring the bodywork. After it was professionally prepared, it was treated to several coats of the original Polaris Silver Metallic and there are details and photographs in the history file detailing the extensive work carried out.Our vendor, a senior BMW man, purchased the car from Stelvio two years ago, after the work was completed, registered it here and has enjoyed it ever since. Before he took delivery, he requested the car was undersealed after the restoration. As you would expect, from the love and attention this car has enjoyed, the exterior presents very nicely with a deep shine from the striking Silver metallic paintwork. The interior is excellent and looks to be broadly original, with the correct leather and blue carpets.The odometer is showing a little over 86,000 km and, whilst we can't verify if this is the total mileage from new, you might tend to believe it given the car's condition. It is fitted with the rare BMW tool kit, four powered windows, and an electrically powered sunroof. Finally, there is a good history file containing various invoices for the aforementioned work, Danish registration documents, more recent invoices, and the fresh MOT CertificateThis very smart 3.0 CSi Coupé is usable on a daily basis and is a stylish way to enjoy classic motoring. A wonderful opportunity to own a very special 'Classic' whose stock is unquestionably on the rise.
