Registration No: 829 HPB Chassis No: AN56250 MOT: Exempt • Provided with a full restoration between 2014 and 2019 • Offered with full weather equipment • Known ownership history since 1969 • Supplied with a BMIHT Heritage Certificate Intended as a spiritual successor to inexpensive pre-war sports cars such as the MG M-type or Austin 7 Nippy, the Austin-Healey Sprite was launched in May 1958. Fruit of the growing partnership between Donald Healey and Austin's Leonard Lord, its design costs were kept to a minimum through some inspired BMC parts bin raiding. Built around a lightweight monocoque, it combined the Austin A35's independent front suspension and four-speed gearbox. Powered by a twin-carburettor fed 948cc A-series four-cylinder engine developing some 43bhp and 52lbft of torque, it was capable of over 80mph. Credit for the Frogeye's wonderful styling lies with both Gerry Coker and Les Ireland. Put on sale for just £669 including purchase tax rarely before or since has a sports car enjoyed such a large fun-to-price ratio. Finished in British Racing Green with a Black interior, with full weather equipment, this Frogeye is reported to be in very good condition throughout following an extensive restoration by the present owner since his purchase in 2013. Works included a full strip-down and body restoration followed by a bare shell repaint and rust treatment prior to rebuild. Practical upgrades include a strengthened glass fibre front end. Restoration was completed in 2020 to be subsequently inspected and MOT tested by MG Specialists Halls Garage in Bourne, before being extensively campaigned on MG and Sprite Club events. Document files include extensive expenditure records, invoices, progress photographs, manuals, ownership history since 1969, the V5C, RF60, Heritage Certificate etc. Offered for sale only because of the vendor’s ‘advancing years’, HPB has always been garaged and well-maintained since restoration and represents an excellent opportunity to acquire a well sorted and ready-to-go Sprite, eagerly awaiting more adventures!

Registration No: GE 3829 Chassis No: AS62366 MOT: Exempt • Part of the collection since 1990 • Elegant Six-Light Saloon coachwork with smoker's hatch • Subject to an older restoration • In need of recommissioning / renovation Introduced in October 1927, the Armstrong-Siddeley 15hp was the marque’s most affordable six-cylinder model. Boasting four bearings for both its crankshaft and camshaft, the newcomer’s 1928cc sidevalve engine also featured a detachable cylinder head which facilitated ‘decoking’. Aimed at the ‘owner driver’ market, the 15hp could be had with a range of open and closed bodystyles, the majority of which were supplied by Armstrong-Siddeley’s inhouse coachbuilder, Burlington. Gaining a higher rear axle ratio and revised rear suspension from April 1928, it was reputedly capable of pulling from 5mph to 50mph in top gear. Progressively developed, some 7,203 15hp cars are thought to have been made by the time production ceased in 1934. First registered in Glasgow on 24th February 1929 (or so its ‘GE 3829’ number plate would imply), chassis AS62366 belonged to Alan Scholes of Bury by the late 1970s. Joining the late Mr Lucas’s collection some thirty-four years ago, the Armstrong-Siddeley still sports a dashboard plaque commemorating its participation in the Lancashire Automobile Club’s Daily Telegraph-sponsored 1957 Manchester to Blackpool Veteran and Vintage car run. Self-evidently the subject of much past restoration work, the Coachbuilt Saloon has since been stored in a leaking barn and deteriorated accordingly. A rare survivor and a worthwhile project.

Registration No: SV 6402 Chassis No: 2/M-1027 MOT: Exempt • Extensively uprated for competitive use and used for a number of hillclimb events with the VSCC • Subject to over £9,000 worth of improvement works in 2023 • Supplied with three thick folders full of receipts and history documents The MG M-Type was manufactured from April 1929 to 1932 and was sometimes referred to as the 8/33. Launched at the 1928 London Motor Show when sales of larger MG saloons began to falter due to the economic climate, the small car brought MG ownership to a new sector of the market and probably saved the company. Early cars were assembled in MG's Cowley factory but production transferred to Abingdon when the MG factory moved there in the Autumn of 1929. The M-Type was one of the first genuinely affordable sports cars to be offered by an established manufacturer, as opposed to modified versions of factory-built saloon cars and tourers. This two-door sports car used an updated version of the four-cylinder, bevel-gear driven, overhead-camshaft engine used in the 1928 Morris Minor and Wolseley 10 with a single SU carburettor generating a sporty 20bhp. Drive was to the rear wheels through a three-speed non-synchromesh gearbox. Early bodies were fabric-covered around a wooden frame but this changed to all-metal in 1931 when the majority of cars were clothed by Carbodies of Coventry and offered by MG in either open two-seat or closed two-door Sportsman’s Coupé versions. The M-Type enjoyed considerable sporting success, both privately and with official teams, winning gold medals in the 1929 Land's End Trial and class wins in the 1930 'Double Twelve' race at Brooklands. Total sales amounted to 3,253 cars by the time production ceased in 1933. First registered on the 28th February 1930, chassis 2/M-1027 was first registered as 'PG 6464' and was originally bodied by Carbodies as a fabric body two-seat tourer. Little is known about the early history of the car, however the continuation buff log book on file shows that the car was acquired by Rowland Smith Ltd - the famous Hampstead based car sales business - on the 19th June 1956 and that the car was Grey and Black during this period. In July 1957, the car was in private ownership in West London and it appears to have been exported by a gentleman in New Zealand from 1976, by which time the car was registered as '214 PPO'. Repatriated in 1987, the M-Type was re-registered as 'SV 6402' in 1988 and in 2000 was acquired by a Mr Glister who put to work in a number of VSCC competition events after a large overhaul in 2008 for which there are a number of receipts on file. At some point during the car's life - the car was fitted with a four-speed close ratio gearbox which it retains today along with an original, extensively uprated power unit - the specification of which includes a Phoenix fully balanced crankshaft, cosworth pistons and connecting rods, oversized inlet valves, full race camshaft and Brooklands style exhaust (the original style item comes with the car). Mr Glister kept the car until 2023, and in that time evidently cherished the MG as it has a number of large invoices on file, including as recently as 2023 there are two invoices from Yorkshire Restorations for cosmetic and mechanical work at £6939 and £1887.35 plus many more previously. Acquired by the vendor in 2023 with the intent of using the car for further competition work, it has unfortunately been relatively under-used due to the vendor's ill health and he has therefore decided that the car is to be sold. Offered with one of the most comprehensive history files we have seen to date including the UK V5C, a stack of paperwork relating to its competition usage, bills dating back to 2000 plus the continuation buff log book and original brass chassis plate, 2/M-1027 presents a fantastic opportunity for any prospective buyer to confidently enter the world of pre-war competition events with fantastic support from the Triple-M Register. Described by the vendor as being in 'very good to excellent' condition throughout, we urge you to make this fabulous baby MG a consideration.

Registration No: Un-Reg (formerly EGE 675C) Chassis No: M/A2S4S/294488 MOT: Exempt • Part of the collection since 2002 • First registered in Glasgow and reputedly rallied by its first owner • Campaigned by Gerard Paton and Gerard McCosh in the 1973 Shell Oils / The Scotsman Rally Championship • Last driven in anger on the 1973 Tour of Mull from which it retired with the offside front wing damage it still sports today • Speedwell goodies, 998cc twin-carb engine, rollcage, internal fuel lines, Works-style dash etc • In need of total restoration or leave as is for display Supplied new in Glasgow (or its now defunct number plate ‘EGE 675C’ would imply), this battle-scarred Mini is rumoured to have been a competition car all its life. Still sporting a decal for the 1973 Scottish Rally Championship to its roof, the diminutive saloon is known to have contested that year’s Tour of Mull as car number ‘88’ with driver Gerard Paton and co-driver Gerard McCosh aboard. Unfortunately, the two Gerards’ efforts were curtailed by a collision which resulted in the damage still visible to the old warhorse’s offside front wing. Not driven in anger since, the Morris is a fascinating time capsule with its bolted-in rollcage, internally-routed fuel lines, auxiliary Speedwell gauges, bolstered front seats, Works-style dashboard extensions and 7,000rpm red-lined tacho etc. Competing in the 1-litre class, the Mini is fitted with a Riley-branded, twin carburettor-fed A-Series engine allied to four-speed manual transmission. The presence of a September 1964 dated window wiper motor suggests that the abused bodyshell might possibly be original. Substantially complete, the Mini would make a rewarding restoration project or could be left in its current state as a fascinating display piece.

Registration No: W518 RKS Chassis No: WP0ZZZ99ZYS691230 MOT: T.B.A • 46,800 miles and current ownership since 2018 • Offered with the original owners wallet, handbook and stamped service book • Understood to be the only RHD example finished in Island Blue • Offered with a collection of invoices and old MOT certificates • C16 UK example with 6-speed manual gearbox • Fitted with rear half cage, carbon bucket seats and Schroth harnesses Following the release of the 996-generation 911, Porsche’s first 996 variant intended either for spirited road use or the racetrack was the GT3. The Hans Metzger–designed 3.6-litre engine derived from the Le Mans–winning GT1 was rated at 360 horsepower and 7,200 rpm, providing 60 additional horsepower over the base 3.4-litre engine. The car was also fitted with adjustable suspension and a unique body kit, including a dual-plane rear wing. The interior featured sports seats and the deletion of some trim deemed nonessential in an attempt to keep weight down. The 996 GT3 is an incredible drivers’ car and won the coveted Evo Car of the Year award in 1999, beating Ferrari’s 360 Modena into second place. Indeed, years later, Evo magazine would place the 996 GT3 Mk 1 above the Mk 2 for driving pleasure, placing it third in the all-time drivers’ car ranking behind the Pagani Zonda and Lotus 340R.

Lot 89
Registration No: 689 UYE Chassis No: 793236BW MOT: April 2025 • Supplied new in US spec, left hand drive, automatic form • Featured in the 'Jaguar Journal' magazine during its recommissioning • A very original example that has been gently preserved and used as is Just as Bentley products gained fame from competition exploits in the late nineteen- twenties and thirties, Jaguar also rose to fame post World War II with their XK engined sports cars taking top honours at prestigious events such as Le Mans and their saloon cars (featuring the same XK power-unit) revelling in the rallies of the fifties and sixties, particularly on the Monte Carlo and Alpine contests. Of particular merit were the substantial Mk VIIs and Mk VIIIs and in 1959 this same platform was updated to become the Mk IX. The Mk XI was visually very similar to the Mk VIII that it replaced, but was much upgraded mechanically, being fitted with a larger 3.8 litre twin cam engine fed by twin SU HD6 Caburettors and could be specified with either a four-speed Moss Gearbox or Borg Warner DG Automatic transmission. The Mark IX was also the first Jaguar to be fitted with Dunlop four wheel servo assisted disc brakes to aid stopping and the driver's arms were finally aided with power assisted steering as standard. After 10,009 examples were built, the Mark IX was replaced by the Mark X. Understood to have been built in 1960 in the attractive colour combination of Cotswold Blue over a Red Leather interior, chassis 793236BW was reputedly first purchased by an American airman who was stationed in the UK and ordered in US specification who immediately exported the car to the US merely a month after delivery. Little is known of the history of the car in the years following, however the previous owner wrote an article in the May-June 2014 issue of 'Jaguar Journal' stating that he purchased the car from a repair shop who had taken the car in from the widow of the previous owner to get back on the road but she sadly did not proceed with the work. The previous owner acquired the car and immediately set about an extensive recommissioning which included a caburettor overhaul and work to the brakes, plus some cosmetic work to the dashboard and leather. It was found that the Jaguar was in an incredibly original state, so preservation of the original paint was also the order of the day and it was found to be a remarkably rust free car overall. Fast forward to December 2012, the daughter of the US-based owner visited him from the UK and asked whether she could use the car for her wedding... Back in the UK! What resulted is that the current owner (based in the UK) purchased the car in 2014 and repatriated it to the UK on the basis that it could be used for the wedding. Having owned the Mk IX for ten years, the vendor is now offering the car for sale due to having a large collection of cars and finds that this big cat only gets used for the occassional wedding within the Jaguar clubs he is a member of. He has informed us that he has kept the car serviced regularly, with the power steering mechanism receiving an overhaul recently and the replacement of the tyres with cross plies as he prefers originality. The bodywork is described as being in 'very good original condition' and the vendor also states that the car is 'mechanically sound'. Unfortunately, the front seat squab is in need of a re-trim due to badly ripped leather (hence the blanket to cover it) but the rest of the leather is described as being 'perfectly usable' with most of the interior trim being in 'good condition'.

Lot 82
Registration No: M824 UMO Chassis No: WDB1240662C202965 MOT: December 2024 • Sought after, UK-supplied, W124 Convertible • Part of a private collection since 2019 • Used for touring around the UK and Europe Introduced in 1986, the W124-series was arguably the last Mercedes-Benz model range to have its design parameters laid down by engineers rather than accountants. Based around a lighter, stiffer and more aerodynamic bodyshell than its predecessor, the newcomer could be had in saloon, estate, coupe or cabriolet guises. Re-branded as the E-class in 1993, the mid-size Mercedes remained the class benchmark throughout its nine-year European production life. Among the more sporting variants, the E320 Cabriolet was powered by a 3199cc DOHC 24-valve (216bhp/229lbft) straight-six engine allied to automatic transmission. Admirably refined, the model was reputedly capable of 0-60mph in eight seconds and 140mph. Built to order number 0453750530 for the UK market, chassis WDB1240662C202965 left the factory finished in the handsome combination of Tourmaline Green metallic with Beige leather upholstery and a Black soft-top. A desirable Sportline model, its specification also included air-conditioning, sports chassis, 8-hole alloy wheels, heated front seats and headlamp wash/wipe. Entering the current (seventh) ownership during 2019, the Mercedes-Benz is said to have proven ‘totally reliable’ whilst undertaking tour-type rallies all around the UK and Europe (its most recent being a two-week sortie to Norway). Marque specialist serviced earlier this month and wearing its 145,000 miles well, this appealing E320 Cabriolet is MOT’d until December and a reluctant sale due to downsizing.

Registration No: VFJ 63 Chassis No: HS6HCS45426 MOT: Exempt • Part of the collection since 1993 • 28,954 recorded miles (unwarranted) • Highly original interior • In need of recommissioning / renovation Introduced in January 1957, the Austin A55 Cambridge boasted a larger boot and airier cabin than its A50 predecessor (the latter courtesy of a much bigger rear window). Based around a monocoque bodyshell equipped with independent front suspension, a ‘live’ rear axle and four-wheel drum brakes, the newcomer weighed little more than a ton. Powered by a 1.5 litre B-Series OHV engine allied to four-speed manual transmission, the four/five-seater was reputedly capable of some 80mph. Available in four-door saloon or two-door commercial guises and with the option of two-tone paint schemes, the original A55 was supplanted by a Pininfarina-styled successor in 1959. First registered in Exeter on September 1st 1957 (or so its ‘VFJ 63’ number plate would imply), chassis HS6.HCS.45426 belonged to Jamie Clark of Scarborough some twenty-five years later. Joining the late Mr Lucas’s collection in 1993, the Austin pleasingly retains its original Red leather upholstery. Showing an unwarranted 28,954 miles to the odometer, the A55 has been off the road for decades. Looking period perfect in White over Grey with an external sun visor, the 4/5-seater also sports additional driving lights, auxiliary gauges and a collection of eight-track cassettes. In need of recommissioning / renovation.

Registration No: M631 AGL Chassis No: SARRAWBMBMG001124 MOT: September 2024 Just 2,300km from new1 of just 258 painted in the optional Oxford Blue Pearlescent (from a total production run of 1,983 cars)Exceptionally original and unrestored conditionIn a private collection in the UK from 2017 until 2023 and then mechanically refreshed Launched at the 1992 Birmingham Motor Show, the RV8 signalled MG's return to the open sports car market. Just as the Cobra grew out of the unprepossessing AC Ace, so the RV8 evolved from the immortal MGB Roadster (hence the car's 'Project Adder' development code). Built around a thoroughly re-engineered and neatly restyled version of its predecessor's monocoque bodyshell, it was powered by a 3948cc V8 engine that developed some 190bhp and 318Nm of torque. Said to be capable of 135mph and 0-60mph in 5.9 seconds, the adoption of telescopic shock absorbers and anti-roll bars all round brought a notable improvement in handling. Trimmed to a high standard, its inviting interior boasted leather upholstery and rich wood veneers. With the vast majority of the limited production run (just 1,983 are thought to have been made) going to a retro-hungry Japan, RV8s remain a rare sight on British roads. Supplied new to the car-friendly climate of Japan, chassis ‘1124’ was one of just 258 examples finished in the optional paintwork of Oxford Blue Pearlescent with Cream leather interior upholstery. Acquired new in Japan by a private collector, the RV8 was immediately stored in the owner's collection and was kept preserved in its original condition, covering just 1,700 kilometres across its first twenty years while in Japan. Thereafter, the MG was imported in 2015, with it receiving its first MOT in November of that year, before being registered ‘M631 AGL’ in 2017 and entering the ownership of another collector, this time, based in the United Kingdom. Retained by said collector until 2023, as such it only has three previous keepers and this RV8 is effectively in ‘as-new’ condition, including down to having the original tonneau cover and MG footwell mats. To preserve originality, the original speedometer in kmh and the Japanese market specifications have been retained throughout. Benefitting from mechanical improvement as required in 2023, the brakes were refreshed and bushes replaced throughout before being provided with an MOT in September with no advisories. Offered now having covered just 2,300 kilometres from new, the MG benefits from being accompanied by a mileage validation certificate having been inspected by the Japan Vehicle Inspection Centre with an e-certificate and windscreen verification. A very special example that can certainly not be overlooked, in exceptionally original, low mileage, and unrestored concours condition, this MG would not be out of place as a concours entrant. Exceptionally rare to find in this state and that has been kept by collectors since new, this RV8 is worthy of close inspection!

Lot 65
Registration No: G690 GNV Chassis No: WAUZZZ85ZLA000083 MOT: April 2025 • Recently subject to extensive cosmetic overhaul • One of a batch of four UK press cars with consecutive registration numbers • Recently the subject of much mechanical expenditure including a replacement, correct type, engine uprated to over 300bhp with MD147KKK Turbo • Sensibly uprated with front Brembo brake calipers • One of only 295 UK right-hand drive 20V models produced The Audi Quattro may not have been the first four-wheel-drive production car (that honour belongs to the 1966 Jensen Interceptor FF), but its place in history is assured. Thanks in no small part to its enormous rallying success, the Quattro popularised all-wheel drive, and is now regarded as one of the most influential and important sports cars of the 1980s. The brainchild of Jörg Bensinger, an Audi chassis engineer, development work was started in 1977. Three years later the finished product was released. Although the floorpan had much in common with the 80 and the running gear was largely taken from an Audi 200, the Quattro used a manual centre differential lock (operated by levers next to the handbrake) to govern the 197bhp and 210lb ft power outputs delivered by the 2.1-litre in-line five-cylinder turbocharged engine. By the time this particular car arrived in 1989, the crude cable-operated 50:50 split differential had been replaced with a much more advanced Torsen (torque sensing) diff and the engine had been uprated with double overhead camshafts and a larger 2,226cc capacity, upping power to 217bhp. Regarded by many as the best of the Quattros, the 20 Valve now represents a great potential investment opportunity, with this example offered in arguably the best and most iconic colour combination of Tornado red over grey. One of a batch of four consecutively registered Audi Quattro 20V press cars, 'G690 GNV' was first registered with its sister cars on the 17th October 1989 and was featured in a comparison with a Lancia Delta Integrale in a late ‘80s motoring magazine. Little is known of the car's history after its life in the glossy pages and it was sold into private ownership, however, the first recorded owner was a Mr Tansley of Derby who was the 5th owner from 12th October 1993. Having been through another owner after Mr Tansley, the Quattro was purchased by the vendor in 2017 starting to look rather sorry for itself and repainted from its original Tornado Red and now presented in Black. The vendor also found that the original RR 20V engine had long since departed as the original had thrown a conrod some time ago and another unit was fitted in the car. Having owned a number of Audi Quattros in his life, this simply wouldn't do for the vendor so he embarked upon a full cosmetic and mechanical overhaul over the next five years. Quattros are notoriously difficult to get parts for, and a cracked windscreen and rear light unit were only sourced by buying a pair of donor Audi Coupés to pillage parts from, and then another RR 20V Quattro to pull the engine from. This painstaking (and expensive!) process meant that 'G690 GNV' was finally reunited with the proper type of power unit and was returned to its original, and very iconic, Tornado Red colour scheme. As with many Quattro owners, the vendor decided to uprate the car with some more modern enhancements at this time and fitted an uprated Turbo Dynamics MD147KKK Turbo, 3 nozzle injectors and Scorpion Exhaust which means the car is estimated to generate around 300bhp. Of course, to put all that power onto the road the car was fitted with a new clutch and the car's brakes were also uprated, with the fitment of Brembo callipers on the front aiding stopping confidence quite considerably. Upon inspection, the dazzling Tornado Red paint still looks very fresh and such details as the bolts for the wings were evidently removed and replaced which gives the impression that a lot of care was taken to get this car right. The vendor describes the body condition as 'very good' and pointed out that both front wings were replaced during the overhaul due to the original items being rather far past their sell by date. A turn of the key and instantly recognisable sound of the potent five-cylinder power unit was ejected through the uprated exhausts and when driving us to the photography shoot location, the vendor described the mechanical condition as 'very good'. We are also pleased to say that the original interior trim is intact and it is described as 'good' by the vendor. Quattros are in high demand today and with good reason - with 23 world rally championship wins under their belt and having near enough defined what a true 80s and 90s drivers' car should be, values continue to rise. If you are looking for a good example that can be used for the show circuit this summer, then one of the press cars should do you nicely! Without further ado, "Fire up the Quattro!"

Registration No: CKW 900 Chassis No: T76465 MOT: Exempt • A very nicely detailed 'Nippy' Evocation built around a genuine Austin body • Painstakingly assembled by the vendor over a twenty-year period using professional help • A 'labour of love' that cost some £21,000 • Tuned engine, four-speed manual gearbox, authentic tool kit and mounts etc Brainchild of Herbert Austin and Stanley Edge, the Austin Seven looked almost impossibly small when launched in 1922. Based around an 'A-frame' chassis equipped with all-round leaf-sprung suspension, four-wheel drum brakes and a spiral bevel back axle, it was powered by a sewing machine-esque 747cc sidevalve four-cylinder engine allied to three-speed (later four-speed) manual transmission. An evolution of the Type EB ‘65’ which itself had been inspired by the legendary Type EA Sports ‘Ulster’, the Type AEB ‘Nippy’ arrived during 1934. Visually near identical to its immediate predecessor with the same low-slung stance and distinctive rounded tail, the newcomer was predominantly bodied in steel over an ash frame (though, early cars utilised the same aluminium panelling as the Type EB ‘65’). Powered by a tuned engine allied to four-speed manual transmission and benefiting from a lowered centre of gravity, the Type AEB ‘Nippy’ proved an amusingly brisk and chuckable sports car. Phased out in 1937, total ‘Nippy’ production is thought to have amounted to just c.800 cars. Among the more characterful Seven models, the 'Nippy' has inspired a host of imitations / recreations over the years. Missing the Nippy he owned from 1968-2020, the vendor set about having a replacement effectively scratch-built. Based on a later chassis but with a genuine Nippy body and Sports engine, this Evocation is worthy of close inspection. Bead blasted, ‘boxed’ for extra strength and black enamelled, the chassis carries a correct bowed front axle, strengthened steering radius arms, Nippy 9E steering box, Andre Hartford front / longer lever-arm rear dampers and overhauled brakes. Sitting on a new ash frame, the body panels were assembled and painted Signal Red by Paul Williams of Seven Rebuilds. Rewired throughout with armoured cabling, the two-seater was entrusted to Ruairidh Dunford of Alba Austins for an exhaustive engine overhaul complete with Kent ‘fast road’ camshaft, 9E large capacity finned aluminium sump, 14-bolt cylinder head, 9E inlet manifold and Phoenix crankshaft / conrods etc. The Zenith 30 VM–5 carburettor was refurbished by Steve Hodgson, while Vince Leek rejuvenated the Sports gearbox (marked with ‘S’ to the rear). The starter motor and dynamo were renovated by QX Components and the upholstery renewed with correct pattern ribbed leather. The wire wheels were powder coated and shod with fresh tyres. Derby Plating restored the brightwork and Jess Dilley re-cored the radiator. The project cost over £21,700. For more information, please contact: Damian Jones damian.jones@handh.co.uk 07855 493737

Registration No: T.B.A Chassis No: 2FTJW35M0KCB30355 MOT: October 2024 • Purchased by the vendor in 2015 while in America and toured parts of the US with him after purchase • Double Cab, 7.3-litre V8 diesel, and ‘lavish’ XLT Lariat spec • Finished nicely in Service Vehicle livery • Immense presence! Dating from January 1989, this F350 is in the more ‘lavish’ XLT Lariat specification which includes plush Burgundy cloth upholstery, leather wrapped steering wheel, carpeting, tinted windows, Sports wheel trims and a chrome grille over the standard specification which also includes radio, electric windows, swing fold mirrors, air con, cold start light etc. Powered by a highly capable 7.3 litre IDI (indirect fuel injection) International Navistar naturally aspirated diesel V8 engine delivering 180bhp which provides considerable towing ability. Featuring leaf spring rear suspension and rear wheel drive, the truck boasts a rear tow hitch and useful load liner. With immense presence (coming in at 6.4metres long!), the Double Cab boasts seating for six with its twin bench seats. Purchased by the vendor in 2015, from 8-Mile Detroit, Michigan State, after purchase, the vendor toured across the United States including driving Alaska’s Dalton Highway which crosses some of the Arctic Circle and Top of the World Highway from Chicken, Alaska to Dawson City, Yukon (stickers in the history file) in the truck. The vendor informs that the Ford was repaired and replaced as required en route throughout that road trip, and the F350 was used as a backup vehicle for a Nick Sanders/Yamaha motorcycle tour before shipment to Southampton from Miami. Approximately $8,000 was lavished on the Pickup over the two year road trip period with improvements including new brakes all round, wheel bearings, suspension bushes, steering arm, prop shaft, radiator, alternator, starter motor, batteries, wiper motor, tyres, exhaust, and heater plugs. Supplied with a body-off exterior refresh with the chassis sandblasted and painted and the body refurbed and wax oiled. Sold out of the vendor’s ownership in 2021, he missed the F350 and purchased it back at the end of last year. Now on sale due to another (uprated) F350 having been purchased, the history file includes the V5C document DVLA registration documentation, MOT certificate until October 2024, and shipping docs. The truck represents an unusual opportunity and looks enticing value at the appealing estimate. Be (very) different?

Registration No: VTF 225 Chassis No: 399899 MOT: None • Part of the collection since at least the late 1970s • Desirable Scottish Aviation Ltd lightweight aluminium cab • In need of recommissioning / renovation Introduced in 1946, the Ferguson TE20 (Tractor England, 20 horsepower) popularised Harry Ferguson’s ingenious hydraulic three-point hitch system around the globe. Endearingly nicknamed the Little Grey Fergie, the usefully compact and lightweight design was manufactured for Ferguson by the Standard Motor Company, and a form of the wet liner engine they developed for it was adopted for the Vanguard and other Standard cars. The engine could be tuned to run on either petrol or what was known as tractor vaporising oil, or petrol/paraffin. 517,651 examples of the TE20 are said to have been produced by Standard's factory in Banner Lane, Coventry, some sixty-six percent of which were exported. Part of the late Mr Lucas’s collection since at least the late 1970s when the DVLA computerised their records, this particular example sports a rare Scottish Aviation Ltd cab. Designed to be removed and fitted single-handed, the lightweight structure was predominantly made from aluminium (said to have been salvaged from recycled Supermarine Spitfires). Featuring a distinctive, ‘streamliner’ roof, the Scottish Aviation Ltd cab was somewhat more stylish than rival offerings. Not run for some time, the Little Grey Fergie will require recommissioning / renovation prior to use.

Crisply styled, its smooth flowing lines and Kamm tail hid a cruciform-braced chassis equipped with all-round independent suspension, disc/drum brakes and rack-and-pinion steering. Powered by a refined 2498cc OHV straight-six engine allied to four-speed plus overdrive manual transmission, it was deceptively fast with contemporary road testers recording 0-60mph in 8.2 seconds and a 121mph top speed. Writing in 1969, Autocar magazine went as far as to comment that "Even if the Austin-Healey 3000 had not been dropped, the TR6 would have taken over as the he-man's sports car in its own right".

Registration No: S434 FWY Chassis No: SAJJGAED3AH034458 MOT: None • c.78,000 recorded miles • Just 3 former keepers and current ownership since 2010 • Offered with original owners wallet, handbooks and service book • Collection of invoices, old MOT certificates and current V5C Living up to expectations can be a burden. Consider the handsome Geoff Lawson-penned XK8 that followed in the wheeltracks of such automotive icons as the XK120 and immortal E-type. Like the E-Type before it, the XK8 made its debut at the Geneva Motorshow - that of 1996 - and, from launch, was available in either Coupe or Convertible guise. Like its immediate predecessor, the XJS, the original XK8 was more of a Grand Tourer than an outright sports car. It also had the distinction of being the first Jaguar to be powered by an eight cylinder engine. This then, was a cat with strong DNA but also its own distinctive, endearing personality. At the time of the newcomer's unveiling, Jaguar Cars was owned by Ford, as was Aston Martin, and it made sound economic sense for the XK8 and similarly targeted DB7 to share the same platform; which itself was derived from that of the outgoing XJS. The biggest of many differences between new and old, was the adoption of Jaguar's second generation independent rear suspension system, previously found on the XJ40 Saloon. Prior to 2003, power came from either a normally aspirated (XK8) or supercharged (XKR) 4.0-litre version of the company's DOHC V8 AJ26 engine. From 2003 to the end of production in 2006, the 4.2-litre AJ34 unit was employed. In each case, the engine was allied to either a five or six-speed (from 1997 onwards) automatic transmission. Supplied by Perrys Jaguar in Huddersfield on 1st December 1998, today this XK8 displays c.78,000 recorded miles and with just 3 former keepers recorded and current ownership since 2010. The specification ordered in 1998 appears to include the classic leather pack, electric and heated mirrors, cold climate pack – with heated front seats, heated windscreen and headlamp washers, adaptive damping, cruise control and, of course, the attractive Antigua Blue Metallic paint. The Jaguar book pack is present and includes the Service Record booklet with 10 stamps. 7 service stamps at main dealer Grange Jaguar, Brentwood, Essex on 27.9.99 at 10,349 miles; 15.11.2000 at 18,963 miles; 29.10.01 at 22,596 miles; 8.1.02 at 26,270 miles; 18.12.03 at 33,002 miles; 24.11.04 at 38,621 miles; 8.12.05 at 42,759 miles. A further 3 stamps were with independent specialist Glen Jags on 19.5.11 at 64,105 miles - with secondary timing chains and tensioners replaced; 6.8.14 at 73,289 miles; 19.5.18 at 73,689 miles. Many of the service receipts are to be found within the history file. Within the later invoices, a receipt on file from April 2018, shows new rear bumper brackets were fitted and preparation and paint to the edges of the wheel arches with undersealing the areas and underseal applied to sill cavities. Offered with the original owners wallet, handbooks and service book, a large collection of invoices and notes, XK8 sales literature, old MOT certificate, and current V5C the Jaguar is now in need of recommissioning after a period of storage.

Registration No: 6918 UA Chassis No: HDT1365083 MOT: Exempt • Professionally converted to run an MGB 1800cc engine and automatic gearbox • Finished in the desirable Tartan Red over a Black interior • Offered with history file including receipts for work • Sold as part of a deceased estate at 'No Reserve' Introduced in Autumn 1955, the MGA Roadster married a proven chassis design complete with independent front suspension and rack and pinion steering to a new B-series four-cylinder, pushrod-ohv engine. Borrowing cues from the Abingdon factory's successful EX182 prototype racers (5th- and 6th-in-class at that year's Le Mans) its wonderfully elegant styling ensured strong sales on both sides of the Atlantic. Continually updated, the MGA range was joined by Coupe and 'Twin Cam' variants in 1956 and 1958 respectively. Prompted by the latter's performance advantage, the standard pushrod model received a capacity increase to 1588cc and front disc brakes in May 1959. The resultant '1600' MKI was capable of almost 100mph. First registered on the 18th July 1959 and one of the last 1489cc cars supplied, '6918 UA' is believed to have been first supplied to the Leeds area and retains its original registration marque to show this. Little is known of the history of the car until 1989, when the car was acquired by a Mrs Shepherd of North Walsham, Norfolk. Painted green at this time (and thought to have been green when new) the MGA was evidently cherished as there are a number of large invoices on file which included a full engine overhaul in 1991. Mrs Shepherd sold the car onto a Mrs Dunnett, also of Norfolk, in 2010 who chose to entrust MG Mecca of Norfolk to carry out a full cosmetic and mechanical refresh which included uprating the sports car with an MGB 1800cc engine and Borg Warner 35 Automatic gearbox plus disc brakes. Cosmetically, the car was repainted in the iconic MG Tartan Red and the interior was refreshed with a new black carpet set and vinyl trim and a new hood was also fitted. The total cost of these works amounted to £22,332.73 and further works were undertaken by MG Mecca until the car was sold through them to the current, late owner in 2015. The late owner, Mr Ward, was fanatical about maintenance on his cars as he regularly used them for trips to the continent and varioius classic car shows with his widow. Unfortunately, the declining health of Mr Ward has meant that the MGA has not been used on the road for some time and it is now recommended for mild recommissioning works prior to use. Upon our inspection we noted that '6918 UA' is a very presentable car, with some small marks from use, and the vendor noted that the automatic conversion appears to look comestically 'period correct', indicating a high standard of work performed. Now offered for sale on a No Reserve basis, this presents a fabulous opportunity for any prospective owner who lusts after a classic sports car without many of the difficulties of driving an entirely original example.

Fruit of the growing partnership between Donald Healey and Austin's Leonard Lord, its design costs were kept to a minimum through some inspired BMC parts bin raiding. Built around a lightweight monocoque, it combined the Austin A35's independent front suspension and four-speed gearbox. Powered by a twin-carburettor fed 948cc A-series four-cylinder engine developing some 43bhp and 52lbft of torque, it was capable of over 80mph. Credit for the Frogeye's wonderful styling lies with both Gerry Coker and Les Ireland. Put on sale for just £669 including purchase tax rarely before or since has a sports car enjoyed such a large fun-to-price ratio.

They wanted to crack the American market and the styling had transatlantic overtones to suit. The car was originally called the Dart, but Daimler quickly succumbed to the threat of legal action from Chrysler's Dodge division and rechristened it the SP250. The newcomer was clothed in a tough fibreglass body and built around a traditional cruciform-braced ladder-frame chassis, the initial version of which (as found on A specification cars), was sadly lacking in torsional rigidity. By 1960, the Daimler Motor Company was in Jaguar's hands and the so-called B specification SP250s featured a much stiffer frame, equipped with additional outriggers and a strengthening hoop between the B posts. The jewel in the car's crown was its engine, a silky smooth 2.5-litre V8 unit designed by Edward Turner and featuring the revolutionary hemispherical combustion chamber technology he pioneered on his Triumph motorcycle engines. With 140bhp on tap and a low all-up weight, the Daimler's performance was strong and the sound was one to savour. Suspension was independent with wishbones and coil springs at the front and a live axle hung on leaf springs at the rear. Braking was by hydraulically-operated discs all-round. According to the Motor magazine test of the period, the SP250 could accelerate to 60mph in a creditable 8.9 seconds and continue on to a top speed of 123.7mph.

Though the newcomer was a logical progression of the XK140, subtle changes to the bodywork gave this final iteration of the XK models a distinctly more modern air. The split windscreen was replaced with a single sweep of toughened glass and the scuttle height was raised, along with the waistline. The bonnet was widened and the bulkhead on the Roadster was moved rearwards by four inches. Inside, the walnut dashboard of the XK140 was replaced by one trimmed in leather. Thinner doors gave more interior space. The standard engine was the 3.4-litre DOHC straight-six unit of the XK140, but most early 150s were fitted with the optional SE version that sported a cylinder head with larger exhaust valves and a pair of 1.75-inch SU carburettors. Still more power was available from 1958 in the form of the 'S' engine and its straight-port head linked to three SUs, for which 250bhp was claimed. The XK150 was also the first production Jaguar to be equipped with disc brakes. At launch, the XK150 was offered in Fixed Head Coupe (FHC) and Drophead Coupe (DHC) guise, the Open Two-Seater Roadster (OTS) following in 1958. By the time the model was superseded by the E-Type, some 4,445 FHCs, 2,672 DHCs and 2,265 OTSs had been produced.

Registration No: 8885 RH Chassis No: GHN320408 MOT: Exempt • Desirable ‘pull-handle’ example • Entering current family ownership in 2012 as a ‘barn find’ from previous thirty-nine year ownership • Supplied with a comprehensive ten-year restoration • Arguably the ‘purest’ form of MGB and pleasingly retaining its original registration number The MGA had really been the first 'BMC corporate' MG, and the MGB which replaced it was intended to be even more popular. Although the engineering of the new car was evolutionary - the B-Series engine, transmission, rear axle and independent front suspension were all improved versions of those used in the previous MGA. The first incarnation of the MGB built from 1962 to April 1965 featured distinctive pull-type door handles and a 95bhp/1798cc engine with three-main-bearing crankshaft and while overdrive was an optional extra, the model's top speed was more than 100mph. Today, it enjoys a very strong following and with its GT sister has spawned a dedicated support industry. For many, the early chrome-bumper MGB roadster is the epitome of the classic British sports car. A desirable ‘pull-handle’ example that was manufactured in 1963, being first registered on the 24th of September that year as ‘8885 RH’. Finished in White paintwork, the MG is pleasingly understood to retain much of its original Black leather interior upholstery. Entering into previous ownership on New Year's Eve 1973, the MG was retained in their ownership for the subsequent thirty-nine years, where during the latter stages of that custodianship, chassis ‘GHN320408’ was off the road in a barn. After several years of attempted persuasion, the MG was acquired by the vendor’s late husband in 2012. The restoration commenced in 2013 but unfortunately, the vendor’s husband passed away before it was completed. Choosing to continue the restoration (self admittedly letting heart rule head), the MG was gradually provided a comprehensive restoration over the following ten years. Supplied with £6,325 worth of expenditure in parts alone, the MG was provided with full bodywork restoration with new sills, boot floor, valance, and wings; an engine overhaul; re-wiring; braking overhaul; refreshed fuel system with new fuel tank; new clutch; new radiator; and a new hood which has (as of the photography session) never been taken down. Used sparingly since the completion of the restoration last year, the MG is understood to retain its original three-bearing engine, and presents on the correct type steel wheels. Offered with a history file that includes the VE60 ‘buff’ logbook, an MOT from 1974, a large collection of invoices from the restoration, images of the MG as found and being recovered from the barn, and a current V5C document, and is also accompanied by a car cover.

Based on a sturdy chassis frame equipped with independent front suspension, a 'live' rear axle and four-wheel drum brakes, the newcomer was powered by a 1200cc OHV four-cylinder engine allied to four-speed manual transmission. With some 40bhp on tap, it was reputedly capable of over 70 mph. Once production was in full swing and the principal Devon (four-door) and Dorset (two-door) saloon models firmly established, other variants joined the A40 line-up including a Jensen-designed sports four-seater, 10cwt pick-up, 10cwt van and estate car (or 'Countryman' as it was known). Styled in-house by Dick Burzi, the commercial A40s contrived to be stylish yet practical. Though, today - thanks to years of overloading, stop-start motoring and general abuse - survivors are few and far between. First registered in Swansea on 19th April 1956 (or so its ‘NCY 961’ number plate would imply), chassis GV5173541 has been part of the late Mr Lucas’s collection since at least the late 1970s when the DVLA computerised their records. Self-evidently the subject of past restoration work, the Austin’s odometer shows 33,552 unwarranted miles.

The stroke of the standard 848cc engine was lengthened to 997cc which, together with other improvements, raised power output from 34 to 55bhp - a close-ratio gearbox and front wheel disc brakes completed the package. That engine was replaced by a shorter stroke 998cc unit in 1964, while the Mark II version launched in 1967 featured a redesigned grille, a larger rear window and numerous cosmetic changes. A home market example, ‘SBL 929G’ was completed on the 18th of October 1968 and supplied new by Morris Garages Limited, Oxford, although not road registered until the 8th of January the next year. Originally a 998cc Cooper, the Mini has been uprated to ‘Cooper S’ specification with a 1275 11-stud engine, and ‘S’ front and rear brakes and servo. Finished in Almond Green paintwork with a White roof, it features a complementary Black interior upholstery. Entering into the vendor’s private collection in 2007, during the vendor’s ownership the Mini has received significant improvement including a new master cylinder in 2010; interior dashboard trim kit, carpet set, and boot board from Newton Commercial costing some £600 in 2015; and sports coil and refreshed starting equipment in 2021.

Powered by a revised version of the marque's long-serving 6.75-litre V8 (albeit in turbocharged guise), allied to four-speed automatic transmission, the newcomer was reputedly capable of 0-60mph in 5.9 seconds and 155mph. Further benefiting from a stiffer bodyshell, revised suspension and bigger brakes, the luxury sports saloon retained a tangible link to the Crewe-built Bentleys of the 1950s/60s, the last of 2,282 Red Labels was completed in 2005. First registered on 23rd March 2001, chassis SCBLC31E31CH06031 was originally supplied in the attractive colour scheme of Peacock Blue over a Cream leather interior. The car has been cherished by eight keepers throughout its life with the vendor having acquired the car in 2020. The vendor advises that the car has a large history file with a number of servicing receipts with the latest being undertaken by independent Rolls Royce and Bentley specialists West Hoathly Garage Ltd of West Sussex to the sum of £1194 in 2021. The vendor, a collector with a number of interesting cars in his stable, took the car off the road after putting less than 1,000 miles on the odometer and will be preparing the car with a fresh 12 Month MOT for the Sale. The vendor describes the car as being in overall 'good' condition, with the paintwork showing some minor blemishes to be expected from a 23 year old car.

The vendor has described the mechanical condition as being 'very good' with the engine easily starting and moving the car with no warning lights displayed on our visit - it has also recently been subject to an ECU overhaul and the fitment of a new alternator by a renowned Rolls Royce and Bentley specialist.
