Given the age of many Lots they may have been damaged and/or repaired and you should not assume that a Lot is in good condition. 5.6 Any person who physically interferes with, scratches or damages the Lot in any way (at, before or after the Auction) will be held liable for the loss so caused. 5.7 The Seller is responsible for delivering the Lot in a presentable and saleable condition.

You are strongly advised to examine any Lot or have it examined by a specialist or engineer on your behalf before the Auction. 6.3 SAL gives no warranty or representation as to the anticipated or likely selling price of any Lot. Any estimate given, whether written or oral and whether or not printed in any Catalogue, as to the estimated selling price of any Lot is a statement of opinion only and may be subject to revision from time to time at SAL’s sole discretion and should not be relied upon as an indication of the actual selling price. 6.4 SAL shall not be liable to the Seller for any error or misstatement in or omission from the description of any lot in any Catalogue where SAL has: 6.4.1 been provided with such description by the Seller or any person on his behalf; or 6.4.2 provided the Seller with a copy of such description prior to publication of the Catalogue and neither the Seller nor any person on his behalf has notified SAL in writing within 7 days of any error or misstatement in or omission from the description. 6.5 SAL has no duty to the Seller or the Buyer to investigate the accuracy of the description of any Lot provided by or on behalf of the Seller. 7.

SAL may endeavour to assist the Seller but SAL shall be under no obligation to do so, and shall not be under any obligation to institute proceedings in its own name. 12.5 In the absence of any written instructions from the Seller to SAL within 7 days of SAL having notified the Seller under clause 12.4 SAL shall be entitled to take any of the actions set out in clause 19.: 12.6 Any monies recovered by and paid to SAL in consequences of SAL taking one or more of the steps referred to in clause 19 shall be applied to the payment of: 12.6.1 legal or other costs incurred by SAL in connection with such steps;. 12.6.2 Expenses; 12.6.3 the Buyer’s Premium and the Seller’s Commission on the sale of the Lot; 12.6.4 any balance remaining shall be paid to SAL to the Seller (or, if appropriate, the Buyer).

The Buyer 15.1 The Buyer shall be the highest bidder at the Hammer Price. Any dispute as to any bid shall be settled by the Auctioneer at his absolute discretion. 15.2 Every bidder shall be deemed to act as principal, unless prior to the commencement of the Auction there is a written acceptance by SAL that a bidder acts on behalf of his principal and the true identity of the principal is noted on the registration form. 16.

1968 Alfa Romeo 1750 Spider Duetto

Lot # 205 (Sale Order: 26 of 91)

Year: 1968Registration: FND 457FChassis Number: AR1470070Engine - Displacement: 1750ccCylinders: 4-Cyl.Estimate - Range: 25,000 - 30,000Guide Price: (+16.2% premium inc. VAT@20%)

The Alfa Romeo Duetto was publicly launched at the Geneva Motor Show on 10th March 1966 as a replacement for the 101 series Giulia Spider and, unusually, only a single model was ever offered with very few optional extras and minimal changes during its production cycle. The round-tail is also nicknamed "boat-tail" and "Osso di Seppia", which means cuttle-fish-bone. The choice for the name of the new car was decided by a competition with "Duetto' being one of more than 140,000 entries and the lucky winner was Sig. Guidobaldi Trionfi from Brescia who got a brand new car as a prize. As the time for refreshing the model approached, it was intended to replace the 1600cc engined Duetto with a two-model range - the 1300 Junior and the 1750 Spider Veloce. The 1750 Veloce was ready for launch in January 1968, whilst the 1300 took until June 1968 to arrive. The Duetto was a true Italian sports car in every sense with incredible handling and advanced mechanics combined with a very attractive 'cigar' shape design penned by Pininfarina himself as his swansong. Very few cars can claim to be counter-culture heroes, but when Dustin Hoffman had his epiphany in 1967's generation-defining movie "The Graduate", he not only did so in the vehicle itself, but the ensuing drama established the film and the vehicle as inseparable in our collective conscience. This lovely example started its life in South Africa before coming to England via Ireland. The car has clearly been very much cherished throughout its life and has been subject to much restorative work when needed to ensure it remained in fine fettle. Most notably the engine has been fully rebuilt (full details in the history file) and its performance was enhanced by fitting high compression pistons, fast-road camshafts and new valves and seats. MDS electronic ignition was also fitted to ensure that the car runs and starts with out any 'Italian tantrums' and the Webers have also benefited from a strip and complete rebuild. Along with the engine, the gearbox was also subject to a full rebuild with new bearings and all new synchros eliminating the infamous 2nd gear crunch commonly attributed to 105 series Alfa Romeos. The prop shaft has also been overhauled with new joints, central bearing, and most importantly a new front rubber doughnut mount, a commonly overlooked but very important part of early Alfas. The suspension and steering were not left out and benefitted from new ball joints and bushes on the front and rear of the car and a set of new 'Gaz' shock absorbers. The brakes have been refurbished with new discs and pads and a replacement servo fitted. A recovered dashboard and new carpets ensure that the interior lives up to the rest of the car, and finally, the Alfa was treated to a set of attractive, four-stud, wire wheels which really add to the car's classic styling. The history file contains a number of invoices relating to all of this work. The Duetto is without a doubt the most attractive and most desirable Alfa Romeo Spider built and this car, benefiting from its subtle upgrades, is an excellent example to use and enjoy.

Along with the engine, the gearbox was also subject to a full rebuild with new bearings and all new synchros eliminating the infamous 2nd gear crunch commonly attributed to 105 series Alfa Romeos. The prop shaft has also been overhauled with new joints, central bearing, and most importantly a new front rubber doughnut mount, a commonly overlooked but very important part of early Alfas. The suspension and steering were not left out and benefitted from new ball joints and bushes on the front and rear of the car and a set of new 'Gaz' shock absorbers. The brakes have been refurbished with new discs and pads and a replacement servo fitted. A recovered dashboard and new carpets ensure that the interior lives up to the rest of the car, and finally, the Alfa was treated to a set of attractive, four-stud, wire wheels which really add to the car's classic styling. The history file contains a number of invoices relating to all of this work. The Duetto is without a doubt the most attractive and most desirable Alfa Romeo Spider built and this car, benefiting from its subtle upgrades, is an excellent example to use and enjoy.

In a respectful nod to the most beautiful Bentley of them all, the first Continental since 1966 used the 'R' suffix to evoke memories of the R-type. The name wasn't taken in vain, for this was also the first individually styled Bentley since the Sixties. Launched in 1991, the Bentley Continental R was a large, exclusive, luxury coup´ and was the fastest, most expensive, and most powerful Bentley in period, and probably the most expensive production car in the world at launch. It was substantially more streamlined than the contemporary Bentley saloons and the stalwart 6.75-litre V8 engine was boosted in power. For the 1996 model year (chassis numbers between 53001 and 53514), the basic Continental R was priced at £187,354 in the UK. During this year, some of the most significant changes since the launch of the car were introduced, notably the inclusion of the liquid-cooled charge cooler as standard, along with improved engine management ensuring a better throttle response, an increase in fuel efficiency and, digitally controlled, turbo over-boost. It also meant an increase in power output and a change in policy by Rolls-Royce as this was the first time performance figures were officially released by the manufacturer, departing from a long tradition of describing engine power as 'adequate' or 'sufficient'. Leaving the Bentley factory at Crewe in 1996, this delightful motor car was first registered on the 20th May of that year to billionaire businessman Chris Lazari, the first of three owners. During their subsequent tenures, the car travelled some 54,000 miles and the Bentley was obviously faultlessly maintained as the Champagne Metallic coachwork gleams, the Gold piped Magnolia leather is in wonderful condition as are the burr walnut dashboard and door cappings. The history file includes the original handbook and book packs and the service book has 11 stamps in it. All previous MOT Certificates are present which show the mileage as accurate and the car will be presented to auction with a fresh MOT. The Bentley has been serviced at the following intervals: 10/07/1996 Mead of Burnham Rolls-Royce & Bentley, Surrey at 889 miles 04/02/1997 Mead of Burnham Rolls-Royce & Bentley, Surrey at 4,251 miles 21/10/1997 Mead of Burnham Rolls-Royce & Bentley, Surrey at 8,515 miles 07/07/1998 Mead of Burnham Rolls-Royce & Bentley, Surrey at 11,830 miles 21/09/1999 Mead of Burnham Rolls-Royce & Bentley, Surrey at 14,676 miles 05/04/2000 Mead of Burnham Rolls-Royce & Bentley, Surrey at 20,662 miles 15/12/2000 Hadley Green Garage Rolls-Royce & Bentley, Hertfordshire 23,595 miles 24/10/2001 Hadley Green Garage Rolls-Royce & Bentley, Hertfordshire at 27,514 miles 15/06/2002 Hadley Green Garage Rolls-Royce & Bentley, Hertfordshire at 30,252 miles 23/06/2005 Bentley Hadley Green, Hertfordshire at 42,571 miles ??/??/2011 Simon Ball Rolls-Royce & Bentley Specialist, Shropshire at 52,121 miles ??/??/2014 Cheshire Classic Cars Ltd., Cheshire at 53,454 miles In contrast to its considerably more common successor the Continental GT, the graceful 'R' is rare and has begun to stretch its legs in the classic car market.

1972 Ford Escort Mk.I Mexico

Lot # 208 (Sale Order: 29 of 91)

Year: 1972Registration: FKJ601LChassis Number: BFATMC00061Engine - Displacement: 1601Cylinders: 4-Cyl.Estimate - Range: 35,000 - 45,000Guide Price: (+16.2% premium inc. VAT@20%)

The Ford Escort Mexico was introduced in November 1970 and was named to celebrate Ford Motor Company's victory in the World Cup Rally. This rally started in London on 19th April 1970 and finished some 16,000 miles later in Mexico. Originally Ford intended to use Escorts with the Twin Cam or BDA engine, but after some reconnaissance, it was decided that high speeds and high power were less important than reliability and ease of servicing, and therefore the 'Kent' pushrod engine was used in the Escort shell. It seems likely that Ford already had plans to produce a high-performance Escort to fit in the range between the 1300GT and the Twin Cam / RS1600, but their victory in Mexico provided an ideal platform to launch such a model. The engineers at the newly formed A.V.O (Advanced Vehicles Operations) quickly developed the 'Mexico', marrying the Type 49 body-shell as used in the Twin Cam and RS1600 with the 1600cc Kent 'crossflow' engine and 2000E gearbox. So, effectively, the Mexico was basically a re-engined Twin Cam / RS1600. The Mexico was AVO's most successful and numerous of the 'Rally Sport Escorts,' and it had a number of advantages on the road, in that it had good performance, was easy to maintain, relatively easy to insure, and above all it was great to drive, something which is still very true today. Presented here is a 1972 Ford Escort Mk.I Mexico finished in Daytona Yellow with its correct 'Type 49' bodyshell and its original engine. This stunning example was originally supplied new by KT Dartford Ltd to its first owner as shown on the original bill of sale which is included in the history file. The original service book shows the car has been well maintained throughout having been stamped multiple times by main dealers. The two previous owners of this Mexico were in the same family and hence it remained a treasured possession for many years. Our vendor purchased the car three years ago and set about returning it to its best and embarked on a full nut and bolt Concours-standard restoration. Fully photographed throughout the process, one can really appreciate the standards to which our vendor has worked. Supplied with many service invoices, its book pack and photos of the restoration, Escort Mk.I Mexicos rarely come to market with all this history, let alone in this outstanding condition.

1991 Ferrari Testarossa

Lot # 209 (Sale Order: 30 of 91)

Year: 1991Registration: 100 FTRChassis Number: ZFFAA17C000087963Engine - Displacement: 4942Cylinders: 12-Cyl.Estimate - Range: 100,000 - 120,000Guide Price: (+16.2% premium inc. VAT@20%)

When Ferrari introduced the Testarossa in Paris in 1984, it was regarded as possibly the best car they had ever built but, whilst the design was spectacular, it was not considered to be as sensually beautiful as numerous GT Ferraris of the past. As a complete departure, Pininfarina had designed a modern, aerodynamic and efficient body shape, immediately recognisable by its very distinctive side 'strakes' unlike anything else seen in the post-war period. The name 'Testarossa', literally Redhead, became synonymous with Ferrari sports racing cars in the 50s and 60s and was resurrected at the launch of this new model at the Porte de Versailles in 1984. Housing a 4.9-litre V12 engine producing 390bhp, the car was capable of a respectable 0-60 mph time of 4.7 seconds and a top speed of 196mph. Produced between 1984 and 1991, some 7,177 Testarossas were made in total. Once again, time showed Pininfarina's design to be durable, and throughout the eighties, the distinctive 'strakes' were echoed in other design disciplines from cars to kettles. However, although the design may have seemed to be 'of the moment', the Testarossa proved itself to be a well-built car, and despite its 'Eiger-rivaling' list price, turned out to be Ferrari's most successful model ever. Today it's a design icon, symbolic of eighties culture, and despite a period in the "boondocks", its popularity is returning rapidly. It's not a surprise really since the Testarossa offers a rare package of serious performance, practicality, and reasonable comfort and although heavy at low speeds, its confidence-inspiring handling at high speed becomes almost addictive. Offered here is a UK-supplied right-hand drive 1991 Ferrari Testarossa first registered in the UK on 16th April 1991. This Prancing Horse is finished in Rosso with a sumptuous Grigio leather cabin and Nero carpets throughout. Purchased by our vendor in 2014, the maintenance records that accompany the car show it has been well looked-after throughout its years. In March 2017 the car was sent to well-respected Ferrari specialists Nick Cartwright where it received a full overhaul. Work at this time included: - Removal of engine & gearbox and cambelt replaced - Cam covers re-crackled - Engine chemically cleaned - New engine oil & filter, gearbox and differential oil. - Rear suspension removed, cleaned, re-painted where necessary and reassembled - Braking system checked, new brake fluid and bleed out system - Air-conditioning recharged - Engine bay fully cleaned and car machine polished - New MOT A comprehensive invoice from the aforementioned specialist fully details the work carried out, producing a £15,600 invoice. Supplied with a UK V5c, an MOT until 14th March 2018, its original leather book pack and tools, this stunning Testarossa is now showing only 26,765 miles on the odometer and is a truly exceptional example of one of the finest supercars from the 1980s. A must for any budding classic car collector...

2000 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution Vl 'Tommi Makinen edition' - UK-spec

By mid-1996, Mitsubishi's rallying success began to really reflect in Lancer Evolution sales. The 1996 WRC season brought Mitsubishi, together with a blisteringly quick Finn named Tommi Makinen, its first World Rally Championship drivers' title. The fiercely competitive Makinen borrowed the phrase 'maximum attack' and used it to devastating effect. By 1997, rallying had captured the imagination of petrol-heads all over the world and Mitsubishi sold 6,000 Evolution IVs in the first three days of its launch! In quick succession, the Lancer Evolution VI came to be and in the latter-half of 1999, Mitsubishi unleashed a special edition to celebrate its favourite son's four consecutive WRC drivers' titles from 1996-1999 - the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VI 'Tommi Makinen Edition' (TME). The Evolution VI was already a technological tour de force, but the TME had a more responsive titanium turbocharger, uprated and lowered suspension ('tuned to give improved initial response on tarmac surfaces'), quicker steering, a different exhaust, a new ECU, beefed-up transfer case internals, a redesigned front bumper for even better cooling and authentic 17-inch WRC Enkei alloy wheels. Plus there was a special interior, featuring embossed Recaro seats, a MOMO steering wheel and red stitching. The performance upgrades saw the 0-60mph sprint obliterated in 4.4 seconds and a maximum top speed of 150 mph. Power was rumoured to be over 300bhp, rather than the 276bhp 'agreement'. Widely regarded as the finest Lancer to wear the Evolution badge, it was now available in five colours, with Passion Red and Canal Blue joining Scotia White, Pyrenean Black and Satellite Silver. Only 250 TMEs (across the five colours) were officially imported into the UK, with 100 examples going to Australia, and the rest sold domestically in the Japanese Market. Official figures show that of the UK's allocation, only 50 examples were in Passion Red. According to Mitsubishi, it was these Passion Red cars that automatically received the renowned racing decals, known as a 'Special Colour Package' (SCP), meaning these cars were factory-fitted with black door handles (so as to not break the line of the long profile decal). In the world of Mitsubishi aficionados, the consensus is that there were just 212 official factory SCP examples of the TME produced. The car presented here then is very special indeed. Not only is it a genuine Evolution VI Tommi Makinen Edition (CP9A / SNGF2) SCP car (i.e. one of 212), but it is also an official UK-market example. This means it was officially imported by Mitsubishi-affiliated 'Ralliart UK', hence it would have been professionally SVA'd and is supplied with UK service books, a calibrated speedometer, an unleaded-spec fuel restrictor, cold-climate battery and an alternator, plus it is individually number on a plaque in the cabin (number 017). The car was originally sold to its first owner through Marshall Mitsubishi of Cambridge. It has an impressive servicing history, which combined with MOT data helps verify its mileage of just 30,000. Our car-enthusiast vendor bought the car in 2010 and has maintained/serviced it thoroughly as part of a collection. There are quite a few ex-Japan 'grey (personal) import' TME cars in the UK, in the variety of the five available colours, often with high mileages, dubious modifications and no history. The only really credible comparison, with this car is the TME SCP car owned by Mitsubishi Heritage 'Y851 GHW', which is used by Mitsubishi in the UK for press/marque events. 'Y851 GHW' is number 006 and was first registered in the UK on the 14.06.01, whilst number 017 was first registered on the 16.07.01. 'Y851 GHW' has covered almost 10,000 miles, has Tommi Makinen's signature on its bonnet and is supposedly insured for a three figure amount! The Evolution VI TME as a genuine SCP car and a UK-edition has real credibility, being both hugely capable and rare; it is no surprise that they are rightly touted as an appreciating modern-classic, with all the ingredients to be a shrewd investment.

The 356 model is acknowledged as Porsche's first production car and was a lightweight and nimble handling rear-engined, rear-wheel-drive, two-door sports car available in hardtop, coup´, and open configurations. Design innovations continued during the years of manufacture, contributing to its motorsports success and popularity. 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, its mechanicals (including engine, suspension, and chassis) were derived from the Volkswagen Beetle. Porsche re-engineered and refined the car with a focus on performance. By the late '50s, many fewer parts were shared between Volkswagen and Porsche and increasing success with its racing and road cars brought Porsche orders for over 10,000 units in 1964, and by the time 356 production ended in 1965 approximately 76,000 had been produced. Today, the Porsche 356 is a highly regarded collector's car with the Super 90 and 'S' variants amongst the most desirable, partially due to the type's much enjoyed success in rallying: the 24 hours of Le Mans, the 1000 km Buenos Aires, the Mille Miglia, the Targa Florio, the Carrera Panamericana, as well as many other important motorsport events. This Porsche 356B Coupe is an original UK, right-hand drive T-6 'S' that was supplied new by AFN in Chiswick. It was delivered on 17th April 1962 and was finished in Silver with a Blue leatherette interior. In addition, it was registered with the number plate 65 EUC, which our vendor is in the process of trying to re-unite with the car. Discovered by our vendor a couple of years ago, he immediately realised he had found something very special indeed. Surprisingly, all the panels, engine, and gearbox were found to be original and he quickly set about a full ground-up restoration. The shell was totally stripped and painted in its original colour and the interior re-trimmed in blue leatherette. Emphasis was placed on finishing the car to original specification during the rebuild. The original engine was totally rebuilt and has just been tuned and set up by leading marque expert Anthony Seddon at Oulton Workshop. The original gearbox was rebuilt and almost all mechanical components were either rebuilt, replaced and restored. Having just been completed, this stunning and incredibly rare 356 'S' is ready for the road again and a large number of photographs document the entire process. One of the most impressive aspects of this vehicle is its incredible history file. The service history dates back to 1962 and a full ownership record details every single owner. This includes letters between private owners and Dick Lovett, who sold the car twice and copies of the original hand written sale ledgers confirm this. Supplied with an original 356 radio and speakers, Porsche Certificate of Authenticity confirming matching numbers, bills and receipts and pictures and details of the restoration just completed, it makes for fascinating reading. We encourage all pre-sale inspections of this vehicle and welcome prospective bidders to contact the office for further details. This extremely rare 356 B 'S' Coup´ is a very collectable car indeed and is one of just a handful that remain in the UK today.

1972 Rolls Royce Corniche

Lot # 213 (Sale Order: 34 of 91)

Rolls-Royce's final coachbuilt models were entrusted to the company's in-house coachbuilder, Mulliner Park Ward. These two-door cars were hand built in the best traditions of British coachbuilding, using only materials of the finest quality, including Wilton carpeting, Connolly hides and Burr Walnut veneers, a necessarily lengthy process that took all of 20 weeks for the saloon and slightly longer for the more complex convertible. This painstaking attention to detail resulted in a price some 50% higher than the standard Silver Shadows. Nevertheless, demand for these more glamorous alternatives to the much more numerous Silver Shadow was strong right from the start, a state of affairs that resulted in them being given their own model name - 'Corniche' - in March 1971. The well tried aluminium V8 engine was adopted, displacing 6,750cc, driving through a Turbo Hydramatic 400 three-speed automatic gearbox. For the Corniche variant, power output was enhanced by about 10%, providing greater torque and giving the car a top speed in the order of 118mph with sports car-beating acceleration to match. The independent coil spring suspension provided the smoothest of rides, complemented by a hydraulic self-leveling system in the rear. According to its original Warranty document, this lovely 1972 Corniche Coup´ was delivered on 09/11/1972 finished in Regal Red with a Cream roof and the interior is in Magnolia leather piped in red. The front seats have recently been re-Connolised to ensure that they are looking their finest. We understand the car has been much enjoyed and the odometer currently reads 46,625 miles which appears to be corroborated by the continuous (RR and marque specialist) service and MOT history. Speaking of which, this cars sparkling condition is reflected in its ownership file which amazingly contains, in excellent order, the aforementioned Warranty and Service and Maintenance Schedule, the hard-backed handbook and supplement, the operating instructions and guarantee for the radio, sundry delivery items all in the original wallet, its full tool roll, jack, and original first aid kit. The vendor describes the coachwork, paintwork, interior, engine, transmission, and electrics all as "excellent' He goes on to say " This Corniche must be the nicest on the market and has been kept in immaculate condition, outside, inside, and underneath. It's close to Concours condition and drives almost like new' Lovely old car and truly representative of the quality of these great, hand-built, Rolls-Royce motorcars.

These two-door cars were hand built in the best tradition...mores of British coachbuilding, using only materials of the finest quality, including Wilton carpeting, Connolly hides and Burr Walnut veneers, a necessarily lengthy process that took all of 20 weeks for the saloon and slightly longer for the more complex convertible. This painstaking attention to detail resulted in a price some 50% higher than the standard Silver Shadows. Nevertheless, demand for these more glamorous alternatives to the much more numerous Silver Shadow was strong right from the start, a state of affairs that resulted in them being given their own model name - 'Corniche' - in March 1971. The well tried aluminium V8 engine was adopted, displacing 6,750cc, driving through a Turbo Hydramatic 400 three-speed automatic gearbox. For the Corniche variant, power output was enhanced by about 10%, providing greater torque and giving the car a top speed in the order of 118mph with sports car-beating acceleration to match. The independent coil spring suspension provided the smoothest of rides, complemented by a hydraulic self-leveling system in the rear. According to its original Warranty document, this lovely 1972 Corniche Coup´ was delivered on 09/11/1972 finished in Regal Red with a Cream roof and the interior is in Magnolia leather piped in red. The front seats have recently been re-Connolised to ensure that they are looking their finest. We understand the car has been much enjoyed and the odometer currently reads 46,625 miles which appears to be corroborated by the continuous (RR and marque specialist) service and MOT history. Speaking of which, this cars sparkling condition is reflected in its ownership file which amazingly contains, in excellent order, the aforementioned Warranty and Service and Maintenance Schedule, the hard-backed handbook and supplement, the operating instructions and guarantee for the radio, sundry delivery items all in the original wallet, its full tool roll, jack, and original first aid kit. The vendor describes the coachwork, paintwork, interior, engine, transmission, and electrics all as "excellent' He goes on to say " This Corniche must be the nicest on the market and has been kept in immaculate condition, outside, inside, and underneath. It's close to Concours condition and drives almost like new' Lovely old car and truly representative of the quality of these great, hand-built, Rolls-Royce motorcars.

1958 Austin Healey 100/6

The BN6 was the final development of the Healey 100/6 two-seater roadster before being replaced by the Healey 3000 (BT7) in 1959. Chassis no BN6-L/3516 was built at MG's Abingdon works between the 30th September and 2nd October 1958 and shipped to a dealer in San Francisco on the 13th of October. After 32 years of enjoying life in the States and with 54,000 miles on the odometer, this 'Big Healey' crossed the Atlantic once again and joined the collection of a Channel Islands resident who is a long-term Healey enthusiast. He decided to carry out a 'nut and bolt' restoration with great attention to detail hoping to achieve a Concours winning standard. The six-port, cylinder head has been reconditioned and converted to unleaded compatibility with new valves, valve seats, seals etc. The block was cleaned inside and out, re-bored to +0.020 and fitted with new pistons and rings and top end bearings. The crank shaft was within 0.0005 of original so polished only and refitted with new bearings, thrust washers, big end bolts and main bearing nuts. The timing chain and tensioner have been replaced and the water pump reconditioned. All oil and waterways in the block and cylinder head were cleaned and the core plugs renewed. The rear axle and differential were dismantled, cleaned and assembled using new parts where required, and the clutch and gearbox were fully reconditioned using new parts. The steering and braking systems have been completely overhauled and new tyres fitted. All electrical components have either been overhauled or replaced with new items including a complete new braided wiring harness. A new aluminium fuel tank has been fitted along with new fuel lines and fuel pump and the carburettors have been fully reconditioned and set up appropriately. A complete, stainless steel, exhaust system and brackets were fitted. Whenever possible, the original exterior trim has been re-chromed to a very high standard with new brightwork added only when necessary. The hood and tonneau cover are new, the side screens have been reconditioned, and the windscreen glass is new. The interior was completely retrimmed to an extremely high standard and features Navy Blue leather upholstery with white piping and well-fitted carpets in Navy Blue Finally, after weeks of preparation, the Healey was carefully repainted in period Ice Blue over Old English White and the tight shut lines and depth of finish will reward any inspection. We understand the car is as immaculate underneath as it is on top. Since this extensive restoration to Concours standard, the car has been driven approximately 200 miles in the Jersey sunshine and any little rattles or niggles eradicated. It comes to auction with all import taxes paid and is now ready to enjoy and perhaps re-imagine the excitement its first owner must have felt as the Healey burbled up and down the hills of San Francisco nearly 60 years ago.

1979 Ferrari 512BB (Carburettor)

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/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 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 332ib 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, the rear arches made slightly bigger to accommodate larger rear wheels, and finally, four rear tail lights replaced the six on the 365. This very special 1979 Ferrari 512BB is 1 of only 101, UK supplied, right-hand drive cars and has recently been subject to a no expense spared restoration including a complete engine rebuild by Graypaul Ferrari. It has been enjoyed by one owner from new and has only covered 21,000miles. The coachwork is superb and the Rosso over Nero paintwork is pristine. The interior with its Nero hide is in excellent condition and the instruments and electrics, post-restoration, all function well. The transmission and running gear we understand are "Very good' and the Graypaul rebuilt engine is described as being "As new' The Boxer is set off by an unmarked set of traditional Cromodoras with three-eared spinners. 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 carb throats which could swallow a golf ball, represents the last of a rare breed: the carbureted flat-12 Ferrari. With just over 100 rhd, 512BBs arriving in the UK and probably less than half of that number remaining, this variant is sought after, not just by the Ferrari purist, but also by investors in the market. This sparkling, fully restored, one owner example has only covered 21,000 miles and, as they say, it really doesn't get much better than that.

In accordance with their usual practice of naming their cars after Fighting Bulls, it was fitting that this new, junior, V8 Lamborghini was named 'Urraco' which freely translates as 'little bull'. Its 2+2 configuration hinted at Lamborghini's grand touring roots and its distinctive styling displayed a family likeness to the delicious Miura. The V8 engine, however, was a bit of a departure and may have been indicative of Lamborghini's decision to have a look at a different market where the Porsche 911 and Ferrari Dino 246 currently reigned supreme. The car was engineered by Paolo Stanzani and styled by Marcello Gandini at Bertone and in 2.5-litre form, it was first shown in 1970 pre-dating the Ferrari 308GT4 and Maserati Merak by several years. This, very special, UK supplied, right-hand drive, 1974 Lamborghini Urraco P250 has only covered 23,000 miles from new and is in exceptional condition both mechanically and cosmetically. Having been fully restored, the coachwork is excellent as is the 'Miura Orange' (Rosso Arancio) paintwork with Silver rear window and 'C-post' detailing. The interior is distinctive and in fabulous condition with the Chocolate Suede dashboard complementing the Cream leather and Amber cloth seats and the Cream carpets edged in chocolate. We understand that the engine, gearbox and running gear all benefited from the restoration and that the electrics are behaving themselves. The engine bay sparkles and the unmarked alloys are dressed with a decent set of Michelin XWXs. This beautiful example still has its original handbooks, spare wheel and car cover. It also has an extensive history file including numerous MOTs and service invoices throughout the years. Interestingly, MBW 711N is featured in Arnstein Landsem's 'The Book Of Lamborghini' where, on page 33, it describes the car in glowing terms. Only 520 of these 'Little Bulls' were made worldwide with less than 10% believed to be delivered in right-hand drive. Great investment opportunity, a truly undervalued car.

1962 Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud II LWB by Radford

The rarest of all long-wheelbase Rolls-Royce from the Cloud through to the Shadow and onward to the Spur are the sought-after 'non-division' cars. Offering greater leg room, as ironically the division takes up the four-inch extra space offered by the lengthened wheelbase, greater driver comfort as the front seats can go further back and, in this egalitarian age, the driver, when taking his family and friends for a spin, feels less like a liveried chauffeur. Most Silver Clouds went to either Mulliner Park Ward or James Young for coachbuilding works to lengthen the wheelbase, however, a very limited number were sent by their owners to Harold Radford (Coachbuilding) Ltd. of Berkeley Street in Kensington. Although all three major coachbuilders did a superb job, Radfords differed by the amount of attention they paid to the interior. They offered a number of desirable refinements including mirror-backed drinks tables that folded down from the back of the front seats, veneered panels that concealed bespoke crystal tumblers, and well-secreted drinks cabinets. In their 'Countryman' series, a complex folding rear picnic table emerged from the boot floor and with the large boot lid fully up formed a perfect spot to place champagne buckets and picnic hampers. The Radford Countryman range was not just limited to the long-wheelbase but a 'Shooting Brake' version of the Cloud was also produced and these now command several hundred thousand pounds. According to the copy build sheets within the history file, this car was ordered by Mr W. H. Orr of Bristol in Masons Black over Sand, the colours it wears today, and registered in his ownership on the 14th March 1961. Reportedly chauffeur driven for most of its early life and under its second owner's tenure the car appeared at numerous Rolls-Royce Enthusiast Club Concours events winning two first and two second places. Two subsequent owners were to follow until the car's purchase by our vendor Sir Peter Vardy, one of the pillars of the British automotive industry and a noted philanthropist. Sir Peter spent some £11,000 refurbishing the car's interior which included re-trimming the seatingr to factory specification in Beige leather and attention to the Walnut door cappings. As a much-valued member of Sir Peter's personal collection the car wears the registration number "PV 1' which is not included in the sale and retention proceedings have begun. The car will be presented to auction with a fresh MOT and an exceptionally detailed history file, handbooks and a sheaf of receipts. Pure, understated, style.

style="text-align: justify;">Launched at Ascot in August 1933, the first of the 'Derby Bentleys', as they would come to be known, continued the marque's sporting associations but in a manner even more refined than before. Even W O Bentley himself acknowledged that the 3.5-Litre model was the finest ever to bear his name. Based on the contemporary Rolls-Royce 20/25hp, the 3.5-Litre Bentley was slightly shorter in the wheelbase and employed a tuned (115bhp) twin-SU-carburettor version of the former's overhead-valve six. Add to this already remarkable package, an all-synchromesh four-speed gearbox and servo assisted brakes, and the result was a vehicle offering the driver effortless sports car performance in almost absolute silence. 'The Silent Sports Car', as it was swiftly dubbed, had few peers as a tireless long-distance tourer, combining as it did traditional Rolls-Royce refinement with Bentley performance and handling. The Derby Bentley was, of course, an exclusively coach-built automobile and as befitted its sporting nature, was almost always fitted with owner-driver Saloon or Drophead Coup´ coachwork, the 'standard' designs being the work of Park Ward. Founded in 1919, Park Ward had forged its, not inconsiderable, reputation bodying Bentleys, Rolls-Royces and other quality makes, and in 1933 received the ultimate 'vote of confidence' when Rolls-Royce bought a minority stake in the Willesden-based coachbuilder, taking full control six years later. style="text-align: justify;">Silverstone Auctions are delighted to be offering this 1934 Park Ward Derby Bentley 3.5-Litre Drophead Coup´ here at Salon Priv´. This aristocratic sporting Bentley is from long-term English ownership and, appropriately enough, was supplied new to Sir G. Stanley White who was joint-founder, with his father and uncle, of what became the Bristol Aeroplane Company. He served as its Managing Director from 1911 to 1954 (Boxkite to Type 188) and was in overall control of the Bristol Aeroplane Company when its Car Division was formed. The car's second owner was celebrated pianist and society beauty Lady Beecham, wife of Sir Thomas Beecham, well-known conductor and impresario, so it's no wonder that this car looks completely at home in the grounds of Blenheim Palace. Six years ago the ParkWard Derby Bentley was purchased by a Spanish collector and exported to Spain but it appears to have been scarcely used during his tenure. Having agreed to sell the car recently it was collected in Madrid and transported back to the UK. A long test drive in the heat of the Spanish Plains was carried out, and according to our vendor "the Bentley never once got hot and drove beautifully with a smooth silent powerful engine. The temperature stayed between 50 & 60 degrees and the oil pressure was excellent". We also understand that "The Park Ward Derby Bentley starts instantly and pulls strongly in all gears with 60mph cruising being effortless". AHY 404 is finished in a period 'Oxford and Cambridge' Blue two tone combination and the paintwork appears in good condition. The dark blue 'double duck' soft roof, complete with matching hood bag, looks excellent and all the brightwork looks fresh. The interior is absolutely period with gently patinated Cream leather extending to the door cards and the carpets are in Oxford Blue. The Walnut dashboard and door cappings have all been removed and refinished. During its restoration, it's obvious that no expense has been spared returning this rakish 'Derby' to the way it would have looked sat on a gravel drive outside an English country house during the Thirties. The car is accompanied by its original buff log book, factory build records, hand written correspondence from previous owners, a complete set of MOT Certificates showing the Bentley (from 1978) to have covered less than 1,000 miles per year during the last three decades. There are also some post restoration RREC bulletins/magazines with pictures of AHY 404 being shown, and winning "Best in Class" prior to its sojourn in Spain. A classic Derby Bentley by a renowned coachbuilder in lovely restored condition and ready to be enjoyed. style="text-align: justify;"> style="text-align: justify;">

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-6 engine, which had been fuel injected since 1971, received a final stretch to 3,164cc, giving a torque-rich 231 bhp, enough to propel the lithe and slippery coup´ to over 150 mph, with 0-60 mph coming up in 5.6 seconds. Cars built from September 1986 onwards were fitted with the more user-friendly G50 Getrag gearbox, but all 3.2 Carreras feature galvanised bodies, which together with Porsche's legendary build quality, ensure that these classics are long lasting. This lovely 1989 3.2 Carrera Sport G50 Coup´ was delivered to the Merlin Porsche Centre in Chesterfield for the personal use of Merlin Chatsword, a Director of the company, and was first registered on 02/03/1989. Classically finished in Guards Red, this car was towards the end of production and, as such, was supplied with the desirable G50 gearbox and the factory fitted wider rear wheels which really enhance the car's appearance. The Porsche Certificate of Authenticity confirms the matching numbers and the fact that the option box had been well ticked including Recoil Bumpers, Blaupunkt Toronto Radio Cassette, Rear Seat Belts, Black Leather Sports Seats With Electric Height Adjustment, Rear Wiper With Spoiler, Sport Shock Absorbers, High Fidelity Package including 8 Speaker System with Amplifier, Amplifier System, Top Tinted Windscreen, Sun Roof, and the Luggage Compartment Trimmed in Black Velour Carpet. This 911 has patently been enjoyed by its four owners as the odometer is now reading 189,514, which sounds quite a lot until you consider that the car had a full engine and gearbox rebuild by Parr Porsche (£9,000) at 147,444miles and recently (July 2016) was treated to a full, glass-out,respray which included new kidney bowls, seals and many new parts from Porsche at a cost of over £15,000. The car has remained in dry storage since its respray. It's just had a major service and a fresh MOT the details of which are now in the large history file which also contains 27 years of MOTs, invoices for work carried out, and a comprehensive service history comprising 18 stamps from Merlin, Stratstone, and Parr Porsche. As can be seen from the photographs, this sparkling Carrera has been totally rejuvenated and having been mechanically refreshed relatively recently it is "fantastic to drive" according to its owner. There is a growing fan club for these late eighties, G50 gearbox cars as they are comparatively simple, eminently usable, and reasonably bomb proof. This is one of the best we have seen and would make an excellent entry into the world of Porsche ownership.

The Porsche Certificate of Authenticity confirms the matching numbers and the fact that the option box had been well ticked including Recoil Bumpers, Blaupunkt Toronto Radio Cassette, Rear Seat Belts, Black Leather Sports Seats With Electric Height Adjustment, Rear Wiper With Spoiler, Sport Shock Absorbers, High Fidelity Package including 8 Speaker System with Amplifier, Amplifier System, Top Tinted Windscreen, Sun Roof, and the Luggage Compartment Trimmed in Black Velour Carpet. This 911 has patently been enjoyed by its four owners as the odometer is now reading 189,514, which sounds quite a lot until you consider that the car had a full engine and gearbox rebuild by Parr Porsche (£9,000) at 147,444miles and recently (July 2016) was treated to a full, glass-out,respray which included new kidney bowls, seals and many new parts from Porsche at a cost of over £15,000. The car has remained in dry storage since its respray. It's just had a major service and a fresh MOT the details of which are now in the large history file which also contains 27 years of MOTs, invoices for work carried out, and a comprehensive service history comprising 18 stamps from Merlin, Stratstone, and Parr Porsche. As can be seen from the photographs, this sparkling Carrera has been totally rejuvenated and having been mechanically refreshed relatively recently it is "fantastic to drive" according to its owner. There is a growing fan club for these late eighties, G50 gearbox cars as they are comparatively simple, eminently usable, and reasonably bomb proof. This is one of the best we have seen and would make an excellent entry into the world of Porsche ownership.

1954 Mercedes-Benz 300 Adenauer Cabriolet

Lot # 223 (Sale Order: 44 of 91)

Year: 1954Registration: OXP 2Chassis Number: 186 014Cylinders: 6-Cyl.Estimate - Range: 325,000 - 375,000Guide Price: (+16.2% premium inc. VAT@20%)

More expensive than the 300SL sports car and almost double the price of the contemporary top-of-the-range Cadillac, the Mercedes-Benz 300b was one of the world's most exclusive automobiles. It is also historically significant as one of Mercedes-Benz's first all-new designs of the post-war era, debuting at the Frankfurt Auto Show in 1951. The 300's arrival re-established Mercedes-Benz in the front rank of prestige car manufacturers, marking as it did a return to the marque's tradition of building high-performance luxury automobiles of the finest quality. Although Mercedes-Benz would adopt unitary chassis/body construction for its lower and mid-priced cars as the 1950s progressed, the retention of a traditional separate frame for the 300 enabled a wide variety of coach built body types to be offered. The 300's cross-braced, oval-tube chassis followed the lines of the 170S and 220, with independent suspension all round and four-wheel drum brakes, but incorporated the added refinements of a hypoid bevel final drive, dynamically balanced wheels, and remote electrical control of the rear suspension ride height. Initially developing 115bhp, the 3-litre, overhead-camshaft, six-cylinder engine - used in fuel-injected form in the 300SL sports car - was boosted in power for the succeeding 300b and 300c models, finally gaining fuel injection in the restyled 300d of 1957. Custom built by Mercedes-Benz's most experienced craftsmen, the 300 was luxuriously appointed and trimmed with materials of the highest quality. Fast and elegant, it was one of the very few contemporary vehicles capable of carrying six passengers in comfort at sustained high speeds. The 300 was the car of choice amongst West German government officials, and throughout Europe and the USA, it was widely favoured by businessmen, financiers and politicians. Indeed, 'Adenauer' became the 300's unofficial model name, after German Chancellor Konrad Adenauer, its most high-profile customer. The conservatively styled 300 Saloon was soon joined by the 300S (Super), a model which succeeded in recapturing all the elegance of the pre-war 540K. Introduced at the Paris Salon in October 1951, the 300S was built in two-seater coup´, cabriolet and roadster forms on a shortened 300 saloon chassis. The roadster was the more sporty of the three, featuring a relatively simple hood that was almost totally concealed when folded down, whilst the cabriolet was more luxurious. Indeed with its lined hood erected the cabriolet was every bit as quiet and comfortable as the fixed-head coup´. Unlike some of its spartanly furnished contemporaries, the 300b boasted a lavishly equipped interior featuring supple leather upholstery, beautiful burr walnut trim, chromium-plated dashboard instrumentation and precision-made switch gear. This absolutely fabulous 300b Cabriolet D was built in late 1953 and its build sheet shows that it was right-hand drive, finished in Gloss Black with a Red leather interior, and was to be delivered to London. There may seem nothing remarkable about that until you consider that it was only nine years since the end of the war, the embargo on German cars had only just been lifted, and at 24,700 DM it was probably the most expensive car in the world at the time. It must have taken a certain disregard for sensibilities to drive a plutocratic German Cabriolet around the war ravaged streets of London which is probably why, during 1953/54, only seven Mercedes were built in right-hand drive. The story moves forward to 2013 when our vendor agreed to purchase OXP 2 in a stripped down state from a restoration company in the Midlands who were ostensibly restoring the car. However, over the following 12 months, very little appeared to be done, and the standards weren't right, but the bills remained substantial. Our vendor took the decision to remove the car to his own premises and start from scratch, stripping the car to the bare bones again. He identified that various parts were missing, and luckily, found the man who had sold it to the restoration company and who had stripped it in the first place, having bought it complete. Fortunately, he still had the missing items and our vendor managed to re-acquaint them with the rest of the Mercedes. The next hurdle was to assess the physical state of the car and the only real area of concern was the floor which had rusted out and would need substantial amounts of new metal. His preferred solution was to look for a sound donor car and a 300 Saloon was located in Poland (having previously belonged to Baron von Houstenberg). The car was inspected, purchased, trailered back to the UK and the floor pans united with OXP2. The rest of the restoration was fairly conventional. All the body parts from both cars were dipped stripping them to bare metal, and the chassis was sandblasted and powder coated along with all other painted chassis and suspension parts.

1970 Jaguar E-Type Series II Fixedhead CoupÃ©

Lot # 224 (Sale Order: 45 of 91)

Year: 1970Registration: MWV 352JChassis Number: 1R20993Engine - Displacement: 4235ccCylinders: 6-Cyl.Estimate - Range: 65,000 - 75,000Guide Price: (+16.2% premium inc. VAT@20%)

The Series II Jaguar E-Types that were produced from 1969 to 1971 can be identified by their open headlights, no longer with glass covers, a wrap-around rear bumper with the tail lights now underneath, and the front indicators were larger and similarly repositioned below the slightly heavier front bumpers. The cooling was much improved helped by the enlarged 'mouth' and Series II cars also feature twin electric fans and uprated brakes. The engine is easily identified visually by the change from smoothly polished cam covers to a ribbed appearance. This striking Series II Fixed Head Coup´ is an original RHD example built on the 3rd August 1970. Delivered new in Jaguar Light Blue with a contrasting Dark Blue leather interior, the car still retains this attractive colour combination to this day and is essentially original throughout including its 4.2-litre engine. Having been dispatched from the factory on the 1st November 1970 and delivered to Charles of Pirbright Ltd. this Series II would remain showroom bound for a further five months before finding its first owner on 7th April 1971 as we can see from the original purchase invoice. In fact, it may well have been the last Series II FHC to be sold as by then the new Series III had taken centre stage. The car has clearly lived a very cosseted life from early on as, during its first year on the road, its owner commissioned additional rust proofing of exposed surfaces and body 'tub' voids including door voids using propriety cavity wax injection provided by Messrs ZIEBART. As a result of this treatment and its low number of owners, who presumably were equally fastidious, the condition of this E-Type, inside, outside and underneath is simply amazing. We understand that it has never undergone a full restoration only routine repairs, ongoing maintenance, and replacement parts when necessary. Purchased by our vendor in 2009, he has continued to care for the car and enjoyed it over many miles. When initially purchased he treated the car to a full cylinder head rebuild in March 2009, and has continued its upkeep to the present day. Currently showing 54,408miles the car comes complete with a rather impressive history compiled in no less than three files documenting its life from new. Included in these files are not only lots of invoices for work carried out but also its rare and original owner's book pack along with a very detailed maintenance diary kept by the original owner. The Series II is often regarded as the most rewarding 'driver's' E-type and this lovely Coup´ ticks all the boxes for E-type ownership presented in wonderful condition throughout and with an outstanding history. A lovely, lovely, E-type to be used and enjoyed.

1976 Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow I

Lot # 225 (Sale Order: 46 of 91)

The Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow was produced from 1965 to 1980 and, aside from a more modern appearance and construction, the Shadow introduced many new features such as disc rather than drum brakes, and independent rear suspension, rather than the outdated live axle design of previous cars. It was also the first Rolls-Royce to use a monocoque chassis, in response to concerns that the company was falling behind in automotive innovation. The Silver Shadow I was produced from 1965 to 1976, and following in the manufacturer's tradition of building luxury vehicles with large power plants, the Shadow featured a 189hp, 6.75-Litre, V8 coupled to a General Motors-sourced 'Turbo Hydramatic 400' transmission delivering an efficient gear change and a smooth ride. This striking Silver Shadow I is offered directly from the stable of Jay Kay of Jamiroquai and not only boasts rock star ownership but also future rock star status in its own right, featuring in a forthcoming music video due to be released later this year. The car is a particularly fine example having lived a largely sheltered life enjoyed by only three previous keepers, according to the V5C, and with the odometer indicating just 39,631 miles. The Shadow owes much of its preservation to its second owner who cherished it from 1981 until 2008 and used it only occasionally until early 2008, when it was sold by his daughter along with a letter stating the indicated mileage of 24,197 in March 2008 was genuine and correct. There is a good history file, which includes many invoices since 2008 but also includes the car's original book pack and service book, which shows the following stamps: 21/10 - 3200mls 04/01/1977 - 6253mls 26/02/1978 - 12,314mls 05/07/1979 - 15,934mls 11/06/1980 - 17,470mls 01/10/2004 - 24,685mls 08/02/2008 - 24,887mls 29/03/2011 - 33,369mls 16/04/2014 - 37,050mls Originally finished in Regency Bronze, the paintwork was becoming tired and Jay Kay had the car professionally, bare-metal repainted and refurbished under the watchful eye of marque specialists Graeme Hunt at a cost of £22,567 in June 2015. It now sports a deep coat of Rolls-Royce Black Emerald Metallic, a really head-turning colour particularly when the sun shines. It's rare to find a Silver Shadow with such sensible mileage and in this condition, and at today's guide price, it would be 'Virtual Insanity' not to consider this car.

The Ferrari Dino was built to honour Alfredo 'Dino' Ferrari who died of muscular dystrophy in 1956. He was the only legitimate son of 'Il Commendatore', and unlike any previous road-going Ferrari, the Dino utilised a V6 engine (Tipo 156) which Alfredo himself had developed and advocated during his lifetime. Enzo Ferrari vehemently answered his critics when he said: "For reasons of mechanical efficiency he finally came to the conclusion that the engine should be a V6 and we accept his decision." The acceptance of this decision resulted in a legacy of motor sport orientated derivatives from Formula One through to various famous sports car racing applications. Following this continued success on the track and in order to homologate Ferrari's 1966 Formula Two campaign, a new line of mid-engined production V6 coup´s with Fiat running gear went on sale in 1967 in two-litre form. However, in 1969 a larger 2.4 litre Dino was introduced, named the 246 GT or GTS in the case of the Spider. The voluptuous bodywork, which many people regard as the prettiest ever to grace a road-going Ferrari, was designed by Pininfarina and built by Scaglietti. It covered a tubular chassis which carried wishbone independent suspension at each corner. The compact four-cam engine, which delivered 190bhp, was mounted transversely above the five-speed gearbox and just ahead of the rear axle, allowing for both a comfortable cockpit and some usable boot space. Proving a great sales success, production of the Dino 246 finished in 1974 with 2,487 GTs and 1,274 GTS models. Offered here is a right-hand drive, Ferrari Dino that has been in single, long-term ownership since 1984. It has had just four previous owners and has a mileage of 42,200 miles. Our vendor was (and is) truly passionate about these cars and, having already owned two, decided to find the best one he could with a view to keeping it forever. The original colour was Rosso, but the car needed a little work and, as his intention was to create something that was as near to perfect as possible, he set about commissioning an exacting restoration that would ultimately take five years with the emphasis on getting the body gaps and shut lines near perfect and the metalwork unadulterated. The results today display the quality of this work and the purity of one of the most classic shapes ever imagined by Ferrari and signed-off by Enzo himself are evident. It was decided to change the colour at the time (1988) resulting in it being painted Giallo Fly which was a Ferrari Scuderia option and a favourite of our vendor. The interior was retrimmed in Nero leather, the dash recovered in suede which now has a deep brown 'hue, and the original Becker Mexico blends neatly with the clean dash lines. Importantly, the window quarter light catches and fixings, often a problem with this model, are perfect. In the early nineties, our vendor acquired the period correct, number plate FLY 21M for obvious reasons and it will remain with the Dino completing the historical 'marriage'. The engine was rebuilt during the restoration and continues to run sweetly, and the gearbox was replaced a few years ago as the original began to slip out of second gear, a known problem with these boxes. The Dino has been no stranger to the knowledgeable Terry Hoyle and his workshop who have been involved over the years keeping this lovely Ferrari in great mechanical condition. It has just been serviced and granted an MOT Certificate, the details of which can be found in the leather Ferrari owner's wallet which will be accompanied by the car's extensive history file. We cannot emphasise the importance of long term ownership and the fact that this beautiful Dino has not been in the market place for a such a long time. It has the distinctive look of an earlier, deep restoration and has mellowed to a very usable, correctly presented example of a model that, in the future, may well come to be regarded as Ferrari's finest moment.

1960 Porsche 356 B 'Super 90' Cabriolet

Lot # 227 (Sale Order: 48 of 91)

Year: 1960Registration: 153UYOChassis Number: 153702Engine - Displacement: 1600ccCylinders: 4-Cyl.Estimate - Range: 160,000 - 180,000Guide Price: (+16.2% premium inc. VAT@20%)

The 356 is acknowledged as Porsche's first production car and was a lightweight and nimble handling rear-engined, rear-wheel-drive, two-door sports car available in hardtop, coup´, and open configurations. Design innovations continued during the years of manufacture, contributing to its motorsports success and general popularity. 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, its mechanicals (including engine, suspension, and chassis) were derived from the Volkswagen Beetle. Porsche re-engineered and refined the car with a focus on performance. By the late '50s, many fewer parts were shared between Volkswagen and Porsche and increasing success with its racing and road cars brought Porsche orders for over 10,000 units in 1964, and by the time 356 production ended in 1965 approximately 76,000 had been produced. Today, the Porsche 356 is a highly regarded collector's car with the Super 90 and 'S' engines amongst the most desirable, partially due to the type's much enjoyed success in rallying, the 24 hours of Le Mans, the 1000 km Buenos Aires, the Mille Miglia, the Targa Florio, and the Carrera Panamericana. This, matching numbers, Porsche 356 Super 90 Cabriolet was supplied new to a Mr Guy Harold Radford of Kensington in 1961 through AFN in Chiswick and has been enjoyed by three former keepers. In 2011, the vehicle was restored to a very high standard as is evident today. The bodywork and interior have mellowed nicely to a point that makes this example highly usable, whilst remaining in excellent condition. The Ivory paintwork retains an excellent shine and the panel fit is straight and true. The exterior is finished off beautifully with Marchal driving lamps that look superb and the black interior is also in lovely order with beautifully preserved original features, such as the Blaupunkt Frankfurt radio. Supplied with a large and very interesting history file detailing the restoration and previous owners, this Super 90 Cabriolet is thought to be 1 of just 42 right-hand drive Super 90s produced in this model year. A Certificate of Authenticity confirms the car's matching numbers and we welcome pre-sale inspections of this stunning and extremely rare Uk-supplied Porsche.

The 356 is acknowledged as Porsche's first production car and was a lightweight and nimble handling rear-engined, rear-wheel-drive, two-door sports car available in hardt...moreop, coup´, and open configurations. Design innovations continued during the years of manufacture, contributing to its motorsports success and general popularity. 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, its mechanicals (including engine, suspension, and chassis) were derived from the Volkswagen Beetle. Porsche re-engineered and refined the car with a focus on performance. By the late '50s, many fewer parts were shared between Volkswagen and Porsche and increasing success with its racing and road cars brought Porsche orders for over 10,000 units in 1964, and by the time 356 production ended in 1965 approximately 76,000 had been produced. Today, the Porsche 356 is a highly regarded collector's car with the Super 90 and 'S' engines amongst the most desirable, partially due to the type's much enjoyed success in rallying, the 24 hours of Le Mans, the 1000 km Buenos Aires, the Mille Miglia, the Targa Florio, and the Carrera Panamericana.

1991 BMW E30 M3

Lot # 228 (Sale Order: 49 of 91)

Year: 1991Registration: H673 DFGChassis Number: WBSAK05000AE42337Engine - Displacement: 2300Cylinders: 4-Cyl.Estimate - Range: 60,000 - 70,000Guide Price: (+16.2% premium inc. VAT@20%)

The pedigree of the original E30 M3 is obvious all the way from its race-bred four cylinder engine (designed to rev past 9000 RPM in race form) and dog-leg, five-speed gearbox to those wheel arch blisters, designed, not to look cool on the Kings Road, but to accept slick tyres of up to 10in in width. The E30 M3 was the first purpose built saloon produced as a racing homologation special by BMW's Motorsport division. Introduced in 1986 as a road car, it dominated Touring Car racing throughout the World taking countless championships including the prestigious German, Australian and British titles, not to mention the World Touring Car Championship in 1987 and in the process quietly becoming one of the most legendary BMWs ever. This particular BMW E30 M3 was supplied new in Germany with the delivery stamp in the service book dated 3rd April 1991. Finished in Brilliant Red with an Anthracite Uberkaro cloth interior and grey carpets throughout, the car was ordered with electric windows. We believe the car remained in Germany for it first 6 years where it was maintained by BMW Niederlassung in Munich and BMW Hakvoort in Siegburg, confirmed by stamps in the service book and its German registration document, the 'Fahrzeugbrief'. The car was then imported to the UK and registered with the DVLA on 24th June 1997 and given registration 'H673 DFG'. Upon import, the car was sent to respected marque specialist Munich Legends for a service and inspection. On 4th July 1997, when the car had covered 69,475km, the speedometer was changed for an mph unit. Subsequent servicing was carried out at BMW Ocean in Plymouth and GG Steel Racing as recorded in the service book. In the hands of our vendor, the car has been treated to a full glass-out respray and the result now is simply stunning. Sitting on Anthracite BBS alloy wheels with polished rims, this example certainly impresses. Now showing 58,124 miles on the odometer, we believe the total mileage to be 101,300 miles. Supplied with a UK V5c, an MOT until 23rd March '18, its service book and handbooks and lots, of supporting invoices, this iconic BMW E30 M3 is in wonderful condition and deserves a close inspection by any car collector or BMW enthusiast.

1989 Mercedes Benz 190E 2.5-16v Cosworth

Lot # 229 (Sale Order: 50 of 91)

Year: 1989Registration: F702 HWBChassis Number: WDB2010352F557856/1Engine - Displacement: 2498Cylinders: 4-Cyl.Estimate - Range: 25,000 - 30,000Guide Price: (+16.2% premium inc. VAT@20%)

In 1983, Mercedes introduced the Cosworth 2.3-16 into their range and the new 16-valve cars were substantially different from the other 190 models. The body kit reduced the drag coefficient to 0.32, the steering ratio was quicker and the steering wheel smaller than that on other 190s, whilst the fuel tank was enlarged from 55 to 70 L. The Getrag 5-speed manual gearbox was unique to the 16-valve and featured a 'dog-leg' first gear. An enlarged 2.5-litre engine replaced the 2.3 in 1988 and offered double-row timing chains to fix the unreliable single chains oh the early 2.3s. Power output was up by 17bhp with a slight increase in torque. The suspension on 16-valve models is very different from the standard 190 and, as well as being lower and stiffer, it has quicker dampers, larger anti-roll bars, harder bushes and hydraulic self-levelling suspension on the rear, allowing the rear ride-height to remain constant even when the car is fully loaded. The previous owner to our vendor acquired this right-hand drive, UK supplied, MB 190E 2.5-16v Cosworth in 1992 when it was about three years old (originally registered 26/02/1989) and had been enjoyed by two previous owners. He used it on a regular basis until around 2005 when, although well maintained, the little Mercedes had begun to look a bit tired and sorry for itself. He had really enjoyed the car and was in a bit of a quandary as to whether to sell it and buy another, tidy the car and sell it then, or carry out a full renovation. After much deliberation, the latter course of action won the day and a full 'nut and bolt' restoration was decided upon although it wasn't to be until March 2008 that the ball started rolling. Having searched fruitlessly in the UK to find a single specialist that could carry out every single aspect of the cars return to its sparkling best, our vendor eventually found a company in Germany that seemed happy and confident about undertaking the entire project. That company was Team Stadler Motorsport from Hannoversch Munden who specialise in Mercedes from the eighties and nineties and particularly the 190 Series (W201) The new engine was supplied and fitted by the well-known Merparts Ltd. from Port Glasgow in Scotland. The story of the next few years and the details of this superb, no expense spared, total restoration is far too long to list here, however, anyone interested in this car might enjoy the extensive and lengthy account at: www.detailingworld.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=113980 The car was eventually finished in 2012 and we understand that it has covered less than 1,000 miles since then. The engine is effectively just run-in, and the coachwork, interior and mechanics are all post-restoration plus 1,000 miles. This car is fully loaded and comes with all the optional extras available at that time. The entertainment system allows for a hands-free phone, full Flat-Screen Sat nav, TV, DVD, CD, rear-view camera and much more. The recorded mileage is known to be correct, but undocumented, and for the same reason, no service documents exist, however, there are SORN Documents and a V5 with the car is MOT tested until October 2017. When you look at the massive quantity of new parts fitted to this car and the all-encompassing nature of the rebuild, then its history is a touch academic. This delightful Cosworth Mercedes has been a complete 'labour of love' and we urge you to come and see the result in person.
