The Bentley S3 was a supremely stylish motorcar dating back to the 1950s with the enhanced Continental model taking this to an even higher level. The coupé body, by coachbuilders Park Ward, is beautifully refined while remaining purposeful and with a strong road presence. This particular S3 Continental left the Park Ward Willesden factory and delivered to Jack Barclay Ltd before changing hands and leaving for foreign climbs. With time spent in the USA followed by the Middle East, it was then repatriated back to its country of manufacture, the UK, in 2022.As it stands today, the condition is generally good throughout, featuring classic two-door coupé Continental styling. The panel-gaps and shut lines look good while subtle tailfins add an additional yet subtle feeling of speed even whilst stationary. To the fore, the imposing chromed Bentley radiator with winged ‘B’ emblem ensure this car’s pedigree with the white paintwork is thought to be original. The chrome trim is well polished and all the lamp lenses seem clear with the distinctive offset Halogen headlamps an interesting feature complemented by an additional pair of Lucas foglamps mounted to the front bumper. The car runs on steel wheels with large, chromed hubcaps whist under the bonnet lies the extremely capable 6.2 litre, V8 engine delivering power through an automatic gearbox with power steering and servo-assisted brakes.The interior has recently been detailed further enhancing the sumptuous leather seating and highly-figured burr walnut veneer dashboard and door trims. The lacquer appears to be free from scratches, chips and lifting and a full complement of instruments can be found surrounding the traditional steering wheel although it should be noted that there is some minor condensation within one or two of the gauges. The original tinted smoked glass sun visors can still be found in situ to shade the occupants when required. It was originally specified with Sundym glass to the rear windows and rear quarter lights. To complete the luxurious package, a full length sunroof was specified by the first owner as well as an electric arial, electric windows and rear coat hooks as can be seen by the enclosed copy of the original Bentley build sheets. A full one year MoT test certificate has been included, signed off with relative ease and further trouble-free motoring for all the family can be looked forward to.

The Alfa Romeo Spider is a two-seater, front-engined, rear-drive roadster manufactured and marketed by Alfa Romeo from 1966 to 1994 in four distinct generations, or "series", each with modifications ranging from modest to extensive. As successor to the Giulia Spider, the Spider remained in production for almost three decades. The first three series were assembled by Pininfarina the fourth series in San Giorgio Canavese. The last Spider of that series was manufactured in April 1993—the last rear-wheel drive Alfa Romeo before the Alfa Romeo 8C of 2007.The Series 4 launched in 1990, with Bosch Motronic electronic fuel injection, full-width body-coloured plastic bumper fascias, an electric cooling fan, full-width rear taillights, on-board diagnostics and eliminated the much criticized front under-bumper and rear trunk-lid spoiler of previous series.Finished in the classic Italian colour combination of Rosso red with Tan interior this low mileage Series 4 example has been with its current owner for over 20 years during which time it has covered only 11000kms evidenced by its annual MoT history, most of which were regular trips to the Le Mans 24 hour race. The car was treated to a respray approximately ten years ago to rectify stone chips and general wear and tear as such still looks extremely fresh today.With the classic Alfa Romeo twin cam engine and five-speed gearbox these Spiders not only look fabulous but have huge driver appeal. With MoT until May 2025 and current V5c this increasingly hard to find Alfa would suit any discerning enthusiast.

Like the Triumph 2000 it was developed from, the Triumph Stag it was styled by Italian maestro Giovanni Michelotti and featured the monocoque construction, independent suspension, disc/drum brakes, power-assisted rack and the pinion steering and driveline of that saloon. All Stags were four-seater convertible coupés but for structural rigidity and to meet new American rollover standards at the time, the Stag required a B-pillar 'roll bar' hoop connected to the windscreen frame by a T-bar. The power plant though, was an all-new OHC, V8 of 3000cc capacity fed by a pair of Stromberg carburettors and the newcomer received a warm reception at the time of launch in 1970, although longevity of the engine proved to be a problem. Most Stags were fitted with a Borg Warner automatic gearbox together with electric windows, power steering and power-assisted brakes fitted as standard. Very desirable, the Stag is well supported through various clubs and specialist suppliers.This excellent 1972 Triumph Stag, with a manual gearbox and overdrive, was the subject of a body restoration and repaint in 2019. Purchased by the current owner in 2022, who set about to make this Stag the best he could. The car was sent to a classic car specialist who located and restored a hardtop for the car, they then stripped out the interior and replaced the seat covers and cleaned and painted anything that required it in the interior. The mechanics of the car were gone through to make sure that it runs and drives as it should. The cost of all this work came to over £12,000. Finished in white with a white hardtop and black interior, this loverly Triumph Stag is supplied with a V5 registration document and a file containing invoices for the recent work carried out, photographs from the previous restorations and old MoT test certificates. With all the work that has been carried out to this car, it represents excellent value to the new owner.

Following the launch of the 911/996, Porsche launched the GT3, the first 996 variant intended for the racetrack. Its 3.6 litre engine was derived from the GT1 and delivered 360bhp at 7,200rpm, offering 60 additional horsepower over the base 3.4 litre motor in the standard Carrera. It was also fitted with adjustable suspension and a unique body kit, including a dual-plane rear wing. The interior featured sports seats, whilst some of the interior trim was removed to keep weight down. Porsche also built a track only version of the GT3, dubbed the GT3 Club Sport. Only a handful of differences can be noted in comparison to the GT3, including the fitment of a full roll cage and a Nomex covered driver’s seat with side airbags omitted. Whilst not generally intended for daily driving, this edition was track-ready in every aspect and able to compete in a number of racing series worldwide.First registered on 30th June 2003, the fantastic Gen.II 996 GT3 on offer here is a UK market C16 car that was specified with the desirable Club Sport package. Including more track focused elements such as fixed back bucket seats, roll cage, fire extinguisher and the removal of the side airbags. Considered the most desirable specification, the car presents beautifully in the classic Porsche colour of Arctic Silver. The 3596cc six-cylinder engine sounds delightful and mated to a six-speed manual gearbox, this Porsche certainly travels with alacrity. Owned by a Porsche enthusiast, this very low mileage example comes with a significant amount of invoices including from Porsche Brooklands, as well as highly regarded specialists such as Ninemeister, Millbrooke and BS Motorsport. The vendor reports the car to run and drive extremely well and will be sorry to see it go having been its custodian for the past 11 years. Sadly, working abroad has meant he has had little opportunity to use this wonderful car. Last serviced in November 2023 with an MoT test certificate valid through November 2024, the car has added a mere 33 miles since, making the overall mileage an incredibly low 21,715 miles!Supplied with a UK V5C registration document, many MoT test certificates and a file of receipts. Often overlooked, the 996 GT3 is a rare breed being very capable both on road and track, but also at low speeds around town. A car that not only does it all, it does it all extremely well!

By the late 1980s, ABS (Auto Build-Up Services Ltd.) completed and manufactured a high quality example od the Scorpion kit car, albeit, at a price. Two versions were offered; the Scorpion, fully enclosed as per the original and the Monaco, an open top adaptation. To achieve the strength required for the convertible, partners that had worked for the Chevron and Shadow racing teams designed the space frame chassis. Not only would this chassis handle superbly but would also increase cabin space for improved driver and passenger comfort over the original. The ABS Scorpion kit car was produced from 1986 until 1991 with American V8 power. The car was made to be able to accept a range of V6 and V8 engines which gave the car a fantastic performance due to their light weight.This outstanding labour of love is a testament to those who both modified and customised the car when built. Presented in Ice White, the ABS Scorpion (Anniversary Model) is not a cheap car to create in the first place and to get right and then customise to this level would have cost in excess of £150,000. Climbing into the car via the automatic scissor doors, you sit upon Anniversary-style seats looking ahead at two fully digital dashboards, one an iPad and one much like the modern digital dash display in line with cars today. If the looks of were not futuristic enough, sitting in the driver seat makes you feel like you are in a spaceship all before you fire up the 3.9 litre V8 engine burbling through custom exhausts. Registered as a 1998 ABD Scorpion with full UK V5 this example has had a fully rebuilt engine and gearbox, the electronics on the car are impressive with modules to control everything from your digital cockpit including electronic brake bias and includes a reversing camera and phone connection. On the road there is nothing like driving such a car, frankly you feel like a million pounds driving this safe in the knowledge not only did you spend significantly less but also maintaining a Rover V8 is frankly easy! Having seen this car in action and the reaction you will get, we are rightly envious of any buyer… viewing is certainly recommended as we are certain you will not be disappointed.

The Audi R8, based on the Audi Le Mans Quattro concept car, designed by Frank Lamberty and Julian Hoenig, first appeared at the 2003 International Geneva Motor Show and the 2003 Frankfurt International Motor Show. The R8 road car was officially launched at the Paris Auto Show on 30th September 2006. There was some confusion with the name which the car shares with the 24 Hours of Le Mans winning R8 Le Mans Prototype (LMP). Importantly, six-time 24 Hours of Le Mans winner, Jacky Ickx described the R8 as 'the best handling road car today'. Although it was rumoured by the automotive press since the announcement of the production R8 in 2006, it was only in August 2008 that spy shots of a convertible R8 'Spyder' from filming scenes of the movie Iron Man Two were published online.This lovely example is presented in silver with a mix of grey leather and alcantara interior. Its mighty V8 is mated to an automatic gearbox. It comes with a service history and current MoT test certificate which expires in June 2025.

Internally known as the 981, the third-generation Boxster was announced on 13th March 2012 at the Geneva Motor Show. The 981 Boxster reflected the new design language from the 911 (991) and 918 and featured new and revised engine and transmission specifications. Together with a new body, the type 981 Boxster featured a new, 40 per cent more torsionally rigid chassis with a small weight reduction of up to 35 kg compared to the previous type 987 Boxster. The standard Boxster was fitted with a new 2.7-litre flat-six engine equipped with a six-speed manual gearbox and an optional seven-speed reworked PDK. Porsche also claimed that the new generation Boxster provided fuel savings of 15% over the outgoing model.This lovely example, with only one previous owner, is presented in Agate Grey Metallic with black leather interior and a black electric hood. Its powerful engine produces 265bhp with a claimed 164mph top speed. The car has Porsche service history which is on Porsche's digital system but not visable in the history file.

Produced between 1961 and 1967, the Triumph TR4 combined a new, modern, and aggressive body design by famed Italian stylist, Giovanni Michelotti, with the basic chassis of the previous TR3A. The TR4 also improved passenger comfort with wind-up windows, face-level ventilation, and an optional hardtop. When equipped with the optional overdrive, the TR4 was good for a top speed of almost 110mph. Following on from the TR4, the new TR4A was phased in smoothly at the beginning of 1965 and introduced an all new independent rear suspension system (IRS), which provided exceptional rear wheel camber control with excellent wheel travel while softer springs improved the ride quality. The press was happy to see an all independent car, and Triumph was pleased to be the first British car manufacturer to have all independent suspensions under every car in their line-up. At the Sebring 12 Hours in 1966, ample proof of the validity of the IRS was provided when three IRS equipped TR4As achieved a remarkable 1-2-3 class victory.This home market TR4A is truly beautiful. The condition of the car is remarkable and the specification second to none. First dispatched in January 1966 it was specified in Signal Red with black interior, wire wheels, a heater and overdrive gearbox. With a Surrey top, this is as desirable as they come. The car had a full body-off restoration around 2008, at which time the chassis received a complete overhaul as well as replacing the floors and outer sills on the body before being resprayed. The engine was rebuilt at the same time by John Knights Engineers in Norwich and the car also received new electrics, upgraded suspension bushes, springs and universal joints. A new stainless exhaust system was also fitted. In April 2019 a new clutch was fitted and the gearbox rebuilt. The car looks fantastic and the brightwork is excellent as are the wire wheels and interior. The door gaps and general panel fit are very good and this wonderful little car has just benefitted from extensive tuning making this car run beautifully before bringing it to sale. The vendor reports the car to run and drive extremely well with the overdrive gearbox shifting perfectly.Supplied with a UK V5C registration document, BMI Heritage Certificate, owner’s handbook and file of receipts and history of the car’s life as well as two sets of keys. It is rare to find a TR4A in such stunning condition and with such a desirable specification. This pretty little British sports classic is ready to be admired wherever it goes.

In the spring of 1960, a Giardiniera (gardener) estate had been added to the 500 range. Built on a four-inch longer wheelbase than the other model produced, the Giardiniera featured a single side-hinged rear door and carried its engine horizontally beneath the rear load platform, thus increasing available luggage space. Testing a Giardiniera in 1961, Autocar magazine was mightily impressed by FIAT’s new baby: ‘The Italians match their affinity with micro-motoring to a happy flair for making little cars really well, and within the limitations of its body dimensions and engine power the Giardiniera is a real masterpiece.’ The miniature estate was found capable of carrying four adults and 2.5cwt of luggage (alternatively, one adult and 4cwt) while returning an impressive 46.8mpg over 1,000 miles. From the spring of 1968 Giardiniera production was transferred to Autobianchi and finally ceased in 1977.This lovely, restored example was first registered in January 1970 in Italy and is finished in its original colour of white with black vinyl trim. Boasting a full length vinyl sunroof and those fantastic suicide doors, 499cc engine and four-speed manual gearbox this is a very practical and fun classic car.

During the 1930s BSA concentrated on producing a range of dependable, well-made, competitively priced motorcycles. The firm's single-cylinder range was redesigned by Val Page for 1937, the engines taking on many of the characteristics they would retain in the post-war era, most notably dry-sump lubrication, rear-mounted magneto and that distinctively shaped timing cover. There were two new overhead-valve offerings in the 500 class: the M22 Sports and M23 Empire Star. Their new engines were housed in conventional cycle parts and drove via four-speed gearboxes, both of which benefited from the convenience of foot change.Restored as a M23 Empire Star, the bike on offer here sports 1940-45 M20 frame and forks fitted, (but on a 1964 registration), with a pre-war fuel tank along with a M22 500cc OHV engine top end and a B33 500cc OHV bottom end. The engine was built up using M22 conrods, M20 crankshaft which was altered to suit along with M20 early pattern gearbox, M20 oil tank, M20 battery holder, Bowden carburettor and M20 wheels. Reported to run and ride very well, this lovely Empire Star comes with a V5C registration document, old logbook, BSA instruction book as well as a good file of receipts.

The Maserati 3200 GT was styled by Italdesign whose founder and head, Giorgetto Giugiaro, previously designed, amongst others, the Ghibli, Bora and Merak and so certainly had the pedigree behind him. Sold mainly in Europe, the 3200 GT shared the twin-turbo 3.2 litre, V8 featured in the Quattroporte IV and Shamal, revised and tuned to 365bhp. The tail lights consisted of LEDs arranged in the shape of a boomerang. The outer layer of the 'boomerang' provided the brake light, with the inner layer providing the directional indicator. Sadly, the U.S. insisted on bulbs and so, as is so often the way, style made way for bureaucracy. Nevertheless, it went on to be a great success until 2007 with the boomerang rear lights being the more desirable.This example was originally supplied by JCT600 Maserati of Leeds in September 2000 and is presented in the classic colour combination of metallic silver with a black leather interior and was specified from new with the optional automatic gearbox. The car has covered a remarkably low mileage of just 44,766 and the overall condition of the car is particularly impressive. The car’s service history is comprehensive up to 44,480 miles, in 2018, with the car covering under 500 miles since. The car is supplied to auction with its owner’s manual and service book containing a record of 16 services, from a mixture of main agents and independent garages. Also included with the car is a V5C registration document and MoT test certificate valid until April 2025.

Following the legendary NA1 and NA2 Honda NSX’s, built between 1990 and 2005, would be no mean feat, but the third generation NSX was something quite revolutionary. The idea of a petrol hybrid attainable supercar was quite unheard of when the NSX launched in 2016, with the NSX being uniquely powered by a 3.5-litre twin turbocharged V6 engine and three electric motors, with two powering the front axle and a third nestled between the engine and gearbox. This combination would be good for 573bhp and propel the NSX from 0-62mph in just 2.9 seconds and all of the way on to a top speed of 191mph. Just 150 cars were allocated to the UK, making the third generation NSX an extremely rare site on our roads.This example was specified in silver with a black interior and polished wheels, which is a very classy specification and shows off the lines of the NSX perfectly. With just one previous registered keeper and less than 500 miles from new, this is a collector quality example. The car comes complete with its owner’s books and service manual, showing regular main dealer servicing and the car has been freshly serviced by Honda prior to the sale.

The Bentley Azure was launched in 1995, based on the platform of the Continental R Coupé which had been launched in 1991. The Azure often surprised with its size and bulk, intended to both convey a sense of presence and allow for comfortable seating of four adult passengers. Power came from the company's Stalwart 6.75 litre V8, featuring a single intercooled turbocharger producing in the region of 380bhp. The gearbox was a General Motors sourced four-speed automatic unit with the Azure capable of 0 to 60mph in an impressive 6.1 seconds. Owing to the limited space at Bentley's Crewe factory, the Azure was designed and manufactured by Pininfarina.This delightful Azure was registered on 11th May 1999 and presents in the extremely popular colour combination of blue metallic coachwork with magnolia trim and a black convertible hood.

The Triumph TR3 was built between 1955 and 1957 and was powered by a 1991cc engine which initially produced 95bhp increasing to 100bhp at 5000rpm. The four-speed manual transmission could be supplemented by an overdrive unit on the top three ratios electrically operated and controlled by a switch on the dashboard. In 1956, the front brakes changed from drum to disc becoming the first British series production car to be so fitted. Because of these disc brakes, the TR3 and subsequent TR3A's became known for their superior braking ability making it an autocross favourite. In 1957, the TR3 was replaced by an updated version, the TR3A, which included new wide front grille, exterior door handles, lockable boot handle and came with a full toolkit as standard, although the TR3A's still retained the 1991cc engine.Completed on 3rd September 1958, this TR3A was built in left-hand specification and destined for Canada. Ordered in Signal red with black interior along with the optional extras of a heater and 590 tyres better suited for the colder climate. Believed to have been imported around 1990, the owner had intended to restore the car himself but sadly died in the late 1990’s. Having been in storage for almost 20 years, the car was bought by Mr. Malcolm Harrison on 16th June 2017 who set about restoring the car to its original colour from the ground up to the lovely vehicle we see here. The accompanying photos show the body removed from the chassis with the various repairs carried out. The body was given a bare metal respray as well and the car having a full “Polybush” kit fitted along with Aeroquip brake hoses, rebuilt brakes, rebuilt differential and a full rewire.

The Ford Zephyr was manufactured by Ford of Britain from 1952 to 1972. Initially it was sold as a more powerful six-cylinder model to complement the four-cylinder Ford Consul and, from 1962, the Zephyr itself was offered in both four and six-cylinder versions, the Consul having been discontinued. The first of the Zephyr range was a lengthened version of the four-cylinder 1508cc Consul engine with a 2262cc six-cylinder engine producing 68bhp. The Zephyr came with a three-speed gearbox, controlled by a column-mounted gear lever. The front suspension design employed what would later come to be known as Macpherson struts while a more conventional configuration for the rear suspension used a live axle with half-elliptic springs. The car could reach just over 80mph and returned 23mpg. The Ford Zephyr Six was available with four-door saloon, estate and two-door convertible bodies. The convertible version was made by Carbodies and had a power-operated hood.This fabulous Zephyr 6 was restored to a very good standard some 10 years ago, photographic evidence of the rebuild is available with the history file. The knowledgeable vendor describes the car as a sound example and driving with no known faults.

The first generation of the BMW 3 Series (E21), was produced from 1975 to 1983. It marked a pivotal moment for BMW, setting the foundation for what would become one of the brand's most successful and enduring model lines. Introduced as a successor to the BMW 2002, the E21 offered a blend of sporty performance and everyday usability, catering to a growing market for compact luxury saloons. The E21 featured a range of inline-four and inline-six engines, which provided a balance of efficiency and power. Its design, characterized by the iconic kidney grille and a sleek, minimalist profile, was the work of Paul Bracq and Manfred Rennen. The E21 also pioneered the use of the driver's-focused cockpit layout, a hallmark of BMW interiors. Throughout its production run, the E21 earned acclaim for its handling dynamics and build quality, solidifying BMW's reputation for producing driver-oriented cars and setting the stage for the successive generations of the 3 Series.Originally registered on 10th May 1982 this BMW presents very well in Savanna Beige with Nylonbraun cloth interior.

The Alvis 3.0 Litre TD21 was a British sports saloon or coupé manufactured in Coventry between the end of 1958 and October 1963. The body was made by Park Ward who were better able to supply them to the quantity, quality, and price required. The cars were slightly taller, and a drophead coupé was added to the range. The 2993 cc engine was again uprated, now producing 115 bhp mainly by an improved cylinder head and increasing the compression ratio from 8.0:1 to 8.5:1. A new four-speed gearbox from the Austin Healey appeared and Borg Warner three-speed automatic transmission was offered. Overdrive was available on the manual transmission from late 1960 to 1962. Wire spoked wheels became an option. From 1959 the all-drum brake set up was changed to discs at the front retaining drums at the rear.Delivered new on the 19th July 1961, this "Gentleman's Express" slotted in neatly between the sporty Astons and the more genteel Bentleys. “NBF 771” was subject to a full body-off restoration in 2012. This included restoring and sealing the chassis, a new coat of paint in a very sophisticated shade of Bronze, and a re-trim in the Connolly tan leather. In 2015 the car was treated to a new Tremec T5 manual five-speed gearbox, propshaft, and sundry items at a cost of £4,814.40. The current vendor bought the car eight years ago and other than having seat belts fitted, the car has been used very sparingly having covered less than 500 miles during his ownership.

It was also the first car from Rolls-Royce with factory coachwork although the chassis were still also supplied to independent coachbuilders. The chassis and engine went on to be used as the basis of those in the Rolls-Royce Silver Wraith of 1946 and Silver Dawn of 1949. The factory bodies were made by Pressed Steel Ltd of Coventry and sent to the Bentley works at Crewe for painting and fitting out with traditional wood and leather.John Anderson was an aeronautical engineer with De Havilland. He applied his skills to building Bentley Specials, completing 12, each unique in their own way. This 1949 registered Bentley was built by him in 1984 and, after being converted to a ‘Special’, spent most of its life in Australia. When the owner passed away, the car was then sold to Anderson’s son. This Bentley Mk. VI Special has been used on a regular basis by the knowledgeable vendor and enjoyed immensely. The 4¼ litre engine starts on the button and runs very well. The gearbox operates as it should and this Bentley offers brisk performance, particularly taking into account it is 75 years old. The green coachwork is in good order as is the aluminium bonnet. The black leather interior presents well and is complemented by the wooden dashboard and easy to read dials. The proportions of this Mk. VI Special are very good making this a very handsome car indeed - it is easy to see why the vendor has enjoyed using this car as his daily driver! Supplied with a UK V5C registration document this Bentley is only being sold due to health-related issues. Consigned by Stewart Banks.

The MR2 derived from a 1976 Toyota design project with the goal of a car which would be enjoyable to drive, yet still provide good fuel economy – not necessarily a sports car. Design work began in 1979 when Akio Yoshida from Toyota's testing department started to evaluate alternatives for engine placement and drive method, finalizing a mid-transverse engine placement. Toyota called the 1981 prototype SA-X. From its original design, the car evolved into a sports car, and further prototypes were tested both in Japan and in the US. Significant testing was performed on race circuits including Willow Springs, where former Formula One driver Dan Gurney tested the car.The third-generation MR2 was marketed as the Toyota MR-S in Japan, Toyota MR2 Spyder in the US and Australia, and the Toyota MR2 Roadster in Europe, except for France and Belgium, where it was marketed as the Toyota MR Roadster.This superb little Japanese sports car is presented in red with black leather interior. It comes with full black Toyota branded sport leather trim, black carpets, remote central locking, power steering, electric windows, manual hood, air conditioning and a CD player. This was a UK car but has spent sometime in Guernsey hence its very low mileage of just over 20,000 miles, which is also reflected in its general condition. Its lively 1800 engine is mated to a six-speed manual gearbox. These are fun, sporty and practical which suits our UK roads perfectly but just as at home on longer tours.

Introduced in 1993 to the public, the handsome new DB7 was styled by Ian Callum, its lines were evocative of earlier Aston Martin models and elements of the DB4/5/6 could be seen in its design. Arguably one of the most attractive looking cars ever produced by Aston Martin, the DB7 was well received and attracted new customers worldwide with its traditional layout of the curvaceous two-door coupé body. At the Geneva Motor Show in 1999, Aston Martin introduced the six litre Cosworth-designed and built V12 engine, developing 420bhp and accelerating from 0-60mph in 4.9 seconds with a top speed limited to 185mph. Ian Callum enlarged the grille, added fog lamps and restyled the valances to give the car a more aggressive look.A rare and highly desirable model, the DB7 Volante offered here comes with the rare manual gearbox option. First registered on 7th July 2000, this ultimate specification DB7 presents beautifully in Stornoway Silver with Charcoal interior and not only boasts the V12, 420BHP engine, but is also one of only 2,046 Vantage Volantes built. Cherished by the vendor for the past 15 years, the history file for this car can only be best described as comprehensive. Bound and in order, every detail from sales invoices to service records are filed. So cherished is the car that the vendor has even kept an annual mileage record. Wanting for nothing, this rare example is reported to run and drive very well and is a very reluctant sale.Accompanying the vehicle is the V5C registration document, owner’s manuals, service records, purchase details, MoT test certificates, Aston Martin Owners Club correspondence and workshop manuals. To find a manual DB7 is hard enough, but to find one in Vantage Volante specification boasting that glorious V12 and with an unparalleled history file, not to mention ‘AML’ registration plate is near impossible. An opportunity unlikely to come again. Consigned by Will Penrose. RARE MANUAL GEARBOX CARCOMPREHENSIVE SERVICE HISTORY
Inspired by a bespoke Morris 1100 that Fred Connolly of the eponymous currier had commissioned from coachbuilder-turned-manufacturer Vanden Plas, BMC tasked its Kingsbury-based subsidiary with replicating Mr Connolly’s car to gauge public reaction at the October 1963 Earls Court Motor Show. Sporting a revised radiator grille, two-tone green paint and sumptuous Champagne Beige leather and Walnut Veneer interior, the resultant machine attracted a deluge of enquiries. Entering production in April 1964, the Vanden Plas Princess 1100 boasted a twin-carburettor 1100cc engine, four-speed manual gearbox, front disc brakes and Hydrolastic interconnected suspension. Priced at £896 (£195 more than the MG 1100 with which it shared a powerplant), the newcomer also featured a West of England cloth headlining, Wilton carpets, reading lights, rear picnic tables and individual folding front seat armrests. In an age of coachbuilt Minis by Wood & Pickett and Radford etc, the Princess 1100 with its ‘shrunken Rolls-Royce’ cabin proved a strong seller.This nice example is presented in blue with a grey leather interior, with wood dash and door cappings. There are folding tables fitted to the backs of the front seats for passengers to use which was a very smart touch back in the 1960s, normally associated with far more expensive luxury rivals. This very original Van den Plas shows much patina and comes with its original buff log book, original hardback handbook, manual and original dealer advert. The car is still on hydrolastic suspension and it is in good order with no leaks or deterioration. Also to add, there are receipts and MoTs going back to 1970s confirming original mileage of 67000 and 2 owners up until recently Practical, British and original which is quintessentially so evocative of family saloons of the era and can be still as much enjoyed today as it was indeed back then.

Launched in late 1985, the 560SL convertible/coupé was the latest in Mercedes-Benz's long and much loved line of luxury sports cars that could trace its lineage back to the 230SL of 1963. In the 560SL's case its Type 107 bodyshell had debuted on the 350SL (introduced in 1970) and this timeless style would continue in production for another five years. The 560SL was powered by a 5.5-litre, overhead-camshaft V8 engine producing 227bhp, an output good enough for a top speed of 220km/h with 100km/h reachable in around eight seconds. There were improvements to the running gear in the form of anti-dive/anti-squat rear suspension, a limited-slip differential and revised steering geometry. Other noteworthy features incorporated as standard in this class-leading automobile included leather upholstery, anti-lock braking, anti-theft alarm system, stereo radio/cassette, leather trimmed steering wheel/shift lever, and an improved climate control system.This superb example of this rare SL sports is presented in white with blue cloth interior and has only covered a mere 65,000km (40,389 miles) from new. It was built for the Japanese market but with European specification body, bumpers etc. It comes with electric windows, cruise/climate control, blue hood which is in as new condition and two sets of keys. The wheels have just been refurbished and four new tyres have been fitted. Its smooth V8 is mated to an automatic gearbox and it comes with its factory hardtop in white.

With characteristic humility Walter Owen Bentley was constantly amazed by the enthusiasm of later generations for the products of Bentley Motors Limited, and it is testimony to the soundness of his engineering design skills that so many of his products have survived. From the humblest of beginnings in a mews garage off Baker Street, London in 1919 the Bentley rapidly achieved fame as an exciting fast touring car, well able to compete with the best of European and American sports cars in the tough world of motor sport in the 1920s. Bentley’s domination at Le Mans in 1924, 1927, 1928, 1929 and 1930 is legendary, and one can only admire the Herculean efforts of such giants as Woolf Barnato, Jack Dunfee, Tim Birkin and Sammy Davis, consistently wrestling the British Racing Green sports cars to victory. W O Bentley proudly unveiled the new 3-litre car bearing his name on Stand 126 at the 1919 Olympia Motor Exhibition, the prototype engine having fired up for the first time just a few weeks earlier. Bentley’s four-cylinder ‘fixed head’ engine incorporated a single overhead camshaft, four-valves per cylinder and a bore/stroke of 80x149mm. Twin ML magnetos provided the ignition and power was transmitted via a four-speed gearbox with righthand change. The pressed-steel chassis started off with a wheelbase of 9’ 9½”, then adopted dimensions of 10’ 10” (‘Standard Long’) in 1923, the shorter frame being reserved for the TT Replica and subsequent Speed Model. Rear wheel brakes only were employed up to 1924 when four-wheel Perrot-type brakes were introduced. In only mildly developed form, this was the model that was to become a legend in motor racing history and which, with its leather-strapped bonnet, classical radiator design and British Racing Green livery, has become the archetypal vintage sports car.Early success in the 1922 Isle of Man Tourist Trophy, when Bentleys finished second, fourth, and fifth to take the Team Prize, led to the introduction of the TT Replica (later known as the Speed Model) on the existing 9’ 9½” wheelbase, short standard chassis. Identified by the Red Label on its radiator, the Speed Model differed by having twin SU ‘sloper’ carburettors, a higher compression ratio, different camshaft and the close-ratio A-type gearbox, the latter being standard equipment prior to 1927 when the C-type ‘box was adopted. These engine changes increased maximum power from the standard 70 to 80bhp and raised top speed to an impressive 90mph. Other enhancements included the larger (11-gallon) fuel tank and (usually) Andre Hartford shock absorbers. Bentley made approximately 1,600 3-Litre models, the majority of which were bodied by Vanden Plas with either open tourer or saloon coachwork.This is a hugely exciting opportunity to purchase an unrestored example of an original Vanden Plas bodied 1926 Bentely 3-litre Red Label ‘Speed’ model. Very few examples like this are likely to be in existence in this condition and it will be a very rewarding project for its new custodian. This Bentley was originally supplied to a Mr N.Ciclitira in 1926 and our vendor purchased it from a family who he understands, had owned the car since the 1940’s. The car was stored in a garage from at least 1963 until 2020, but this cannot be substantiated. The car was originally bodied as a four-seat sports tourer by Vanden Plas and it would appear that the doors and some sections of the bodywork are very likely to be the originals (not 100% verified), with other areas of wood sections looking to have been replaced at some time. The car retains its original engine, numbered LM1334 which are confirmed by the factory records and it also retains its very desirable SU ‘sloper’ carburettors.It is known that the car was used in competitions (Hill Climb/Circuit) prior to have been put into storage, with some modifications having been made to better suit competition use. The car is fitted with a larger Le Mans style fuel tank on the rear, smaller 18-inch rear wheels with larger sidewall tyres, different wings and a racing exhaust. We cannot say for sure when these modifications would have been made, but it is understood to have been some time in the 1950’s. This car is remarkably complete and viewing is of course highly recommended.

‘Britain's lowest-priced “200”, the Triumph T20 Tiger Cub, impresses even a seasoned tester with its outstandingly good all-round performance and value. This four-stroke lightweight is game for a genuine 64-65mph; it will cruise energetically all day in the mid-fifties; and it will return fuel consumption figures little short of remarkable, whatever the throttle openings used.’ - Motor Cycling. The Tiger Cub’s immediate forbear was the 149cc Terrier, with which Triumph had re-entered the market for lightweight commuter machines in 1952. A simple, compact, unitary construction four-stroke with four-speed gearbox, the Terrier was joined in 1954 by an enlarged version - the 200cc Tiger Cub - that offered 60mph-plus performance and 100mpg. A big success, particularly with younger riders, the Cub underwent continual development for the next 16 years, finally ending up with BSA Bantam cycle parts (as the Bantam Cub) before being dropped in 1970.Offered here is a first year of production example that was first registered on 14th December 1954. Presenting beautifully, the bike has been cherished throughout its life. The supplied history file shows early service records along with receipts, past tax discs, old logbook as well as a 1st place ribbon from the Ashford Classic Motorcycle Show in 2015.

The first production Alvis to be styled by the Swiss coachbuilder, Graber, appeared at the Paris Motor Show in October 1955. Based on the existing TC21 Grey Lady chassis, the newcomer brought a much-needed injection of Continental style and modernity to the Coventry manufacturer's range. Lighter, stiffer and with a much smaller frontal area than the traditionally styled Grey Lady, the Graber Alvis enjoyed much improved handling and a higher maximum speed in excess of 100mph. The first Graber styled model, the TC108G, was built by coachbuilders Willowbrook, before production switched to Rolls-Royce's in-house coachbuilder Park Ward, on the introduction of the restyled TD21 for 1959. The TD21 retained Alvis's torquey, 3.0 litre, overhead valve six, which in uprated form now came with 120bhp courtesy of a redesigned cylinder head. Inside, there were improvements to the accommodation with increased headroom and legroom, especially in the rear. Lockheed servo-assisted disc brakes were an option, becoming standardised for 1960.This lovely, rare Series II Alvis TD21 Drophead Coupé was first registered on the 15th February 1962 and is supplied with a Borg Warner automatic gearbox, factory power assisted steering and with the factory extras of chrome wire wheels and reclining front seats. Purchased by the current owner in 2021 from a large collection. With less than half as many Series II cars built than the Series I, making these later Drophead Coupé rare cars to find, especially in this condition. Although this vehicle has led a pampered life and just had a full suspension rebuild and a new fuel tank fitted just before he purchased it, it was not quite to his standards, so he sent the car to marque specialists Red Triangle who completely went through the car. More recently, this TD21 has been in the care of Bowron Motorcare who rectified any paint defects and fitted new tyres. All this work was at a cost of over £37,000. Finished in this elegant Silver/Grey with Black leather interior, this excellent and rare TD21 Series II is supplied with a V5 registration document, original handbook, spare keys and a very large history file. This is one of the best Alvis of this type we have seen and is sure to turn heads wherever it goes.

1937 Riley Kestral, 1 1/2lt. Registration number FPC 962. Chassis number 27K6499. Engine number not found. Sold with no paperwork, although the car is on SORN and a 2010 tax disc was found in the car. Produced from 1936 until 1938 when Nuffield took over the company, the Riley 1½-litre, is a range of cars that were available with saloon, touring, and sports/racing coachwork, The car is powered by a four-cylinder 1,496 cc with one or two Zenith carburettors. It was advanced for its day with twin camshafts mounted high in the engine block, cross flow head on some versions, and Zenith or twin SU carburettors. The chassis had half-elliptic leaf springs all round and drive was to the rear wheels through either a four-speed preselector or manual gearbox. Girling rod brakes were fitted. At launch three body styles were available: the Kestrel 4 light fastback saloon, the Falcon saloon and the Lynx open tourer. In 1936 the Kestrel became a six light, the Falcon was replaced by the Adelphi six light saloon and the Continental touring saloon was introduced. Between 375 and 400 27K models were produced. FPC is an older restoration that has been stored since 2010 in a dry garage with other vehicles from this deceased estate.
1980 Ducati 900 SS MHR, 860cc. Registration number KDF 460V. Frame number DM860SS 900275. Engine number DM860 090008. Sold with the V5C, one key, purchase invoice from Made in Italy Motorcycles to a Swedish owner in 2019, purchase invoice from Classic Super Bikes to our vendor in 2021, MOT dated March 2020 at 35,172KM (21,841M), today 35,717KM various receipts for parts including genuine Conti pipes, clutch/gearbox parts, front fork stanchion and seals, and copy manuals. After Mike Hailwood’s spectacular victory at the 1978 Isle of Man Formula One race on an NCR Ducati, the factory commemorated this event with the introduction of a race replica. Ducati announced that they would produce 200 limited edition ‘900 Replicas', although the exact number is unknown, some believe up to 300 were produced. Today these are referred to as MKI's’ (only from 1981 was the model officially titled ‘Mike Hailwood Replica’) and became known as the Mk1 later on. The bikes had a fibreglass cover over a regular 900 Super Sport fuel tank, single seat and came with a certificate. The engine was identical to that of the 900 Super Sport and came with 40mm Dell’Orto carburettors and Conti exhaust pipes. The 1980 Mk2 was not limited in production and although only the fuel tank was now made from steel, the bike was more or less the same as the 1979 Mk1. This still included some very specific items fitted, such as the one-piece fairing, the Brembo Goldline brake callipers, 40mm Dell’Orto carburettors and were originally fitted with Conti exhausts. The Mike Hailwood Replica’s of 1981 and beyond are very different to the 1979/1980 models. The model now featured a two-piece fairing, regular Brembo brake callipers and Silentium exhaust pipes. The 1981 Mk3 was the first MHR to include side panels to hide the battery. In 1983, the Mk4 was introduced with an updated engine with electric start and and a new frame based on a Ducati S2. The final bevel drive Ducati was the 1000 'Mille' Mike Hailwood Replica of 1984 that was available through until 1986. KDF, frame number 900275, has had three owners on the V5C and appears to a very original machine with low mileage. Our vendor has enjoyed minor improvements during his ownership but now finds it too heavy to move about in his garage.

1952 Norton Model 7 Dominator 88, 497cc. Registration number TXS 494 (non transferrable). Frame number 42512. Engine number 42512. Sold with the V5C, old MOT's, large amount of receipts and other paperwork. The Dominator is a twin cylinder motorcycle developed by Norton to compete against the Triumph Speed Twin, originally designed in 1947 by Bert Hopwood, who had been on the Speed Twin design team at Triumph. Available for sale from mid 1949 as the Model 7, the new 500cc engine went into the existing ES2 plunger-frame/tele-fork cycle parts, a marriage that necessitated a redesign of Norton's well-proven four-speed gearbox. this design set the pattern for Norton twins for the next 30 years. HMW was bought by M.J. Murphy from a Sothebys auction in 1990, the entry states that it had been rebuilt by J. Tennant-Eyles and had been in Northern Ireland since 1983 owned by Dr R.A. Lindsay. It was then reallocated its original UK number, HMW 185, and it stayed with him until a year ago. The number has recently been retained. Our vendor states it is in good running order.
2008 Triumph Rickman Metisse MKIII, 500cc. Registration number not registered. Frame number 2/08, R4355T. Engine number 5T 46583. Gearbox number GB20H53, 946, C41. There is no paperwork with this machine. Rickman Motorcycles was established by brothers Derek and Don Rickman, they manufactured motorcycles from 1960 through 1975, the company was then sold to a Rickman Metisse enthusiast run by Pat French. In 1999 a new enthusiast arrived on the scene and set up a new company (Métisse Motorcycles) and bought Pat French's business including some later parts and the rights to use the word 'Metisse'. This machine has been exactly built with a big bearing 5T engine, AMC gearbox, Norton front brake, Triumph rear wheel, stainless steel rims and spokes. It has been occasionally fired up and ridden around our vendors garden.
1978 Bultaco Sherpa T, 340cc. Registration number YGY 254S. Frame number JB 19900686. Engine number JM 199001774. Sold with the V5C and MOT certificates from 2014 and 2015. The 350 version of Bultaco's famous Sherpa T trials motorcycle first appeared in 1972 as the model 92. The specification remained unchanged until 1975, and the model 151, when a modified frame lowered the weight to 91 kg and changes to the induction and exhaust resulted in a drop in power output to 17.5 bhp. The 1977 Model 191 benefited from a power increase to 20.8 bhp but no significant changes were made until the 1981 Model 199B, when the engine capacity was increased to 340cc and a sixth ratio was added to the gearbox. This was the final version of the Sherpa T 350 and remained in production until 1985 when Bultaco went out of business. YGY was first registered in the UK in 2012 and bought by our vendor in 2022 with the intention of entering some twin shock events. He gave it to his father to fettle it and when it was returned it had been restored too well to take out on the moors and rocks so it stayed in the garage and was only occasionally fired up and ridden locally. Benefitting from being road legal this Sherpa should give much fun to the next owner. Sold with the V5C and MOT certificates from 2014 and 2015.
1965 Triumph 3TA, 349cc. Registration number KHH 849C. Frame number H 37536. Engine number H 37536. Sold with the V5C and a key. Triumph re-entered the 350 class in 1957 with the introduction of the Twenty One. Its arrival ushered in Triumph's unitary construction era, which saw the engine and gearbox, previously separate components, combined within a single structure, albeit one that retained a vertically split crankcase assembly. Readily distinguishable by its Shell Blue metallic finish and 'bathtub' rear enclosure - a feature later applied to Triumph's larger models - the newcomer was renamed '3TA' in September 1958. With just 18.5bhp on tap, Triumph's smallest twin lacked the urgent acceleration of its larger brethren, but nevertheless was a capable tourer good for around 80mph while delivering excellent fuel economy. KHH is a matching numbers unrestored machine in a rare silver bronze (gold) colourway. This colour was only used for three years, 1963 - 65, it is believed only some 1756 were produced.

History The 9-3X concept, a preview of the next-generation 9-3, premiered in January 2002 at the North American International Auto Show. Originally, the 9-3 was due to début with the Opel Vectra in October 2001, at the Frankfurt Motor Show, but in July 2001, it was announced that delays had forced General Motors to postpone the introduction. The new 9-3 was eventually launched in July 2002. There were four trim levels: the entry-level Linear, mid-range Vector and Arc (with emphasis on sporty appeal and luxury), and a top-of-the-range Aero model. The 9-3 Convertible was the first car in its class to score five stars in the Euro NCAP crash tests. The standard 1.9 TiD version has 150bhp and a 0-62mph time of 10 seconds (identical to the 1.8t) while returning an impressive 48mpg. OverviewThis car was first sold by Alexanders in Thornsby on Tees. Being first registered on 5th January 2007. Appearing in metallic blue on cream leather interior, with a black hood over. The car is a 1.9TiD Vector. It has only had 2 keepers from new and whilst the history file isn’t huge due to its age, it is impressive. The car has be well maintained with 11 stamps in the service book up to 77,484 miles (which brings us to present day). The last being on the 5th August this year. A new gearbox fitted in May 2023, and new discs and pads in August. The car appears to be in very good condition, and the vendor drove 50 miles to the site in it. The vendor has bought the vehicle to tick a bucket list (due to ill health), and having done so wishes to now pass the vehicle on to the next owner to enjoy.

History Renault were indeed ahead of the market when they introduced the Juvaquatre, a compact three door estate known as the station wagon. A somewhat stylish four seater with a fold down back seat providing a gargantuan amount of space to the rear. Powered by a four cylinder ‘type 6702’ engine with a bore and stroke of 58 x 80mm giving a cubic capacity of 848cc, this being coupled to a three speed manual gearbox made good reliable and economical motoring. For around five decades Renault had found a lucrative market catering for the small car buyer and the Juvaquatre was certainly developed in the best Renault tradition, the aforementioned economical motoring combined with practicality, the Juvaquatre was suitable for both commercial and private customers. It had few rivals, its closest competition being the Citroen 2CV, personally we don’t think it even came close to the charismatic charms of the Juvaquatre. Overview 1956 Renault Juvaquatre Station Wagon - R 2100 - Break Odometer: 32,483 Kms VRM: Not U.K registered (All papers to register are with the vehicle*) Hansons classics are pleased to be able to offer this delightful and practical station wagon onto the market. The 26HP 848cc engine and 3 speed manual gearbox makes this a truly wonderful and economical classic, perfect for those weekends to the coast. Extensive work has been carried out by the vendor throughout the Juva with the underside having been fully rejuvenated along with the bodywork prepped in readiness for its new paint. We are told all parts required to finish the restoration are with the car, including two spare wheels, original bumpers and a very desirable roof rack. The car is currently running. *All documents are with the vehicle including the original French logbook “Carte Gris” which will assist in making the registration with DVLA more simplified.Upon registration with DVLA the vehicle will be granted historical vehicle status making it MoT & Tax exempt. There are many receipts for work completed so far and a useful source of suppliers can be found in the pack for any future work. Parts are still in their abundance in France.

History Unveiled at the London Motor Show in October 1971, The Triumph Motor Company division of British Leyland in Canley, Coventry, produced a total of 204,003 Dolomites between October 1972 and August 1980, 79,010 of those being the 1850 HL model.The Dolomite was the final addition to Triumph's small-car range (codenamed "Project Ajax"), which had started in 1965 with the Triumph 1300, designed to be a replacement for the rear wheel drive Triumph Herald. Initially, the HL variant used the new slant four 1854cc engine, which mated an alloy overhead cam head to an iron block, providing 91 bhp which offered sprightly performance. This was a version of the engine that the company was already providing to Saab for use in their 99 model. Overview 1977 Triumph Dolomite 1850HL AutomaticVRM: ACK 188R (Non transferable)Odometer: 51,550Registered: 1st May 1977 Finished in true seventies russet brown with contrasting tan interior this Dolomite offers a few more features than the more common base model. With equipment such as full instrumentation, luxury seats and carpets is gave the BMW 2002 and Cortina GXL a run for its money back in the day. The economical 1854cc engine and three speed automatic gearbox make easy work of todays driving requirements, whilst having 2 SU 4 carburettors and rear wheel drive you can rely of that little extra performance should you feel tempted to push the accelerator with a bit more authority. Today the car presents very well since its production some 47 years ago, the panels are in good order and normal problematic areas such as door shuts, wheel arches and sills all being in good fettle. The original chrome-work and rubber mouldings again are in fantastic order, complete with its original vinyl cladded d pillars this car oozes that late seventies vibe. Car currently not running as due to being in storage it would require a service and fresh fuel. Showing a total of 51,550 miles with only 5 previous owners it’s certainly a fantastic opportunity to acquire a well above average example. *mileage as of 2006 recorded at 49,786 View more - https://hansonsclassics.com/car/1977-triumph-dolomite/
History The R107-series SL was unveiled in 1971, presenting luxury-hungry buyers with stylish interiors, bigger engines and sharper, more contemporary bodywork. Mercedes-Benz’s renowned build quality quickly becomes apparent from the moment you close the door with a satisfying clunk. The R (Roadster) 107 chassis was also an incredibly long-lived member of the Mercedes-Benz family, remaining in production until 1989. After five decades, the R107 SL is still a fashionable and popular vehicle being the second longest single series ever produced after the G-ClassOverview 1981 Mercedes-Benz 280SL Convertible R107 (Auto)AIL 9500 (Transferable)Registration Value: £1500Original suffix: X registeredDirect from deceased estate:First registered in September 1981 the car has just 2 previous owners, the last being custodian for some 35 years since acquiring the vehicle in 1989. Having been garaged and fastidiously maintained throughout its life gives testament to what a true genuine survivor example this is, an example that has clearly lived a very pampered life.Finished in Mercedes Thistle Green with contrasting black and charcoal sports check upholstery this vehicle has covered only 39,925 miles from new with only 209 miles of that being covered in the last 27 years, YES you read that right, an average of just 7.7 miles a year since 1997.Being the less troublesome 2746cc straight six engine coupled to the four speed automatic transmission not only does one have economy but also that peace of mind against the issues more commonly found with the larger capacity V8 models.The perfect colour and clarity of the engine and gearbox oils are also testament to the vehicles impeccable past. This unblemished example benefits from excellent chrome-work and rubbers throughout, a full stainless steel exhaust system which in return gives it that little extra burble upon driving. Complete with its original 14” ‘Bundt’ alloys wheels original Mercedes mud-flaps and removable hard top (with both keys) makes this not only a must for the coming summer months but also a superb addition to any serious collectors private garage.Although we are awaiting some additional papers from probate we can confirm that previous MoT’s show the vehicles mileages as 38,816 as of August 1997 and 38,901 in August of 2001.

History Designed to sit between the Austin Sevens and twelves and their largest model the twenty, the Austin Sixteen and Eighteen were introduced in 1927 and became particularly popular amongst the ‘carriage’ trade of taxis, private hire, undertakers and the like. In 1934, the chromed radiator surround was replaced by a body matched painted one and the four speed manual gearbox was equipped with synchromesh on third and fourth. To cater for the more refined, the Chalfont was the luxury model with glass division and a pair of folding occasional seats in the rear. Both sixteen and eighteen models had a six cylinder engine for greater refinement. The Austin 18/6, Chalfont bodied its engine and front seat were mounted nine inches (225 mm) further forward than on the old York Sixteen it replaced. The chassis was also extended three inches (75 mm) to provide a total of twelve inches (300 mm) more passenger space. One result was a relatively short bonnet and a good driving position. Its new shape followed the lines of the other Austin cars introduced the previous autumn and it was remarkable for having a completely flat floor in both front and rear passenger compartments with exceptionally wide doors and draught-free ventilation. Overview 1936 Austin 18/6 Chalfont Limousine (Man) – DKJ 973Registering on the 26th October 1936, this car was sold to Lady Colyer-Fergusson – whose photo portraits are at the national portrait gallery. Daughter of Sir Thomas Colyer-Fergusson, 3rd Bt. The car has an aristocratic feel. Its assumed it was used to chauffeur Lady Colyer-Fergusson up from Kent to London, or for afternoon tea with other likemindeds. The car was sold on in 1945 and again in 1946. From there we think one keeper between this and Lord Of Cannock. Again, the car wears Lord Cannock’s coat of arms. It starts and drive on the button. We aren’t aware of any mechanical faults, but buyer must satisfy themselves. The body work presents well. The only shame is the carpet missing in the rear View more - https://hansonsclassics.com/car/1936-austin-18-6-chalfont-limousine-manual/
**********AWAY CLIENT COLLECTED ON 11/7/24******** History The story of the Jaguar Mark II (also known as the Jaguar MK2) begins with Jaguar’s “Project Utah” which gave birth to the Jaguar 2.4 litre and 3.4 litre Mark I. These models then went on to father the Jaguar Mark II and then the Daimler 2.5 V8. Effectively the MkII was just an upgrade to the Mk 1, which was only really called the mark 1 after the mark 2 was released. However, the mark 2 somehow became the icon, and encapsulated the “Space, Grace, and Pace” that was the ethos of Jaguar’s Sir William Lyons. That and the fact it was revered for being the getaway car of choice for London’s nefarious underworld. Especially the 3.4l roaring its 6 cylinders with DOHC to 210bhp and a top speed of 120 mph. It’s hard to imagine just how fabulous this car was back in 1959. Overview 1967 Jaguar MkII 3.4l (Manual) – 17 CWF The car in our auction may just help you have a taste of those times. First registered in June 1967 it is one of the last of the mk II 3.4l before they became the 340 in September of the same year. We do not have much of its early history (maybe we don’t want to or aren’t allowed to). However, we do know the car went through a photo documented restoration. As well as an engine and gearbox rebuild back in 2010, with the total works for all costing £15,000. Completed by WatJag of Bakewell. Documentation is within the files. There are a lot of files, along with manuals and parts catalogues (and maybe the odd document that tells you how to file your way out of prison)! It appears the car has been well kept since 2010, this can be seen just by looking at the condition of it, close to immaculate. A very tidy car, with just 77,000 on the clock. Although we cannot be sure if that is genuine or not, appearances would say it is. The car starts and drives well. There is an electronic choke fitted. The steering fluid may need a small top up as there is a slight whine occasionally, when on full lock. However, when she is opened up, the only whine you can hear is the one in your head, as you imagine 1960’s coppers behind you, in hot pursuit.

History First appearing at the London Motor Show. In 1966 the Gilbern Genie could be purchased with either a 2.5- or 3-litre Ford Essex V6 engine and gearbox with optional overdrive and steering and back axle were BMC units from the MGB. The unusual name was in fact a combination of the first three letters of the name of founder Giles Smith and the first four letters of the name of his co-founder Bernard Friese. Overview Gilbern GenieVRM: WMP 391G (non transferable) No. 110 of only 197 made. Having been restored in the early 1990s including a full engine rebuild this stunning example has only covered around 10,000 miles since! Complete with overdrive, and a stainless steel exhaust this car could almost be mistaken for an exotic mid-‘60s Alfa, amazingly it was actually made in Wales, in fact the Gilbern was the only handmade car to ever be produced there. Without doubt an extremely rare car being one of only 197 Genies ever produced, the question you have to ask yourself is, how many have actually survived. The styling is typical ‘60s sharp-suited Italianate, the wheels could pass for Cromodoras and the car has plenty of power on tap from its 3.0 Ford V6. The Gilbern is almost forgotten nowadays and if you were to remove the Dragon badges who would know what you were driving or what it was worth? It even has a whiff of Maserati Mexico about it. This 1969 Genie had a thorough restoration in the early 1990s, during which it received its new Giallo Forte paintwork (having previously been red). The engine was also rebuilt with a fast road camshaft, uprated oil pump, new Weber 40DF15 carb, electronic ignition etc. (The oil pressure is reported to be around 50psi). There is a stack of paperwork with this car including a total of 21 MoT’s showing the mileage at point of restoration was around 97,000 miles with the odometer now showing ****** This example has been kept it in good order with the aid of local Gilbern specialist, Sporting Classic Marques of Llanelli who, among other jobs, fabricated new stainless steel rear exhaust sections which look absolutely stunning. The car has also benefitted from rolling road tuning where the dyno sheets show a rather healthy 165bhp and 189lb/ft. An incredibly rare opportunity to own an incredibly rare car which oozes the true styling of the sixties. View more - https://hansonsclassics.com/car/gilbern-genie/
