1955 Jaguar XK140 OTS
This Jaguar XK140 comes from long term family ownership where it has resided since 1996. The car was inherited in 2020 but has spent the majority of its time since then in storage and the family have now decided that it should be sold and enjoyed by someone who will use the car. The car was maintained by its owner who was an engineer and therefore able to undertake what was necessary to keep the car in excellent condition. It has recently come out of storage and we have checked the car over and given it a service. It is running very well indeed with no issues. The engine has the useful upgrade of an aluminium radiator. This is not a matching numbers car, but apart from that everything is correct. The interior is particularly nice and it has clearly been refurbished in the past and the leather seats continue to look fresh as does the dashboard surround. There is a full set of wet weather gear which is in good condition and has not been used for sometime. The panel gaps are excellent especially around the doors and they both close with virtually no pressure required. The underside also appears to be in excellent condition. The only aspect of the car which needs attention if the next custodian wants perfection is the paint which is crazed in several areas along with some areas where the paint has flaked. There is no indication of any rust and this is more down to the paint failing in places which will almost certainly be down to how it was prepared and painted. The paint finish that was achieved was in fact very good as the photographs will demonstrate. You could very easily live with the paint as it is given that the car is still very presentable. The history file contains the V5, along with an original XK140 models Jaguar catalogue. For someone seeking an XK140 that is in excellent shape which doesn't break the bank, this one certainly fits the bill. We recommend viewing at your earliest opportunity.

1986 Porsche 928S2 for restoration/recommissioning - Full service history
This Porsche 928S has been off the road since 2016 and will need an element of recommissioning and restoration. The car has a fully documented stamped up service history which is as follows: 26.06.86 - 915 miles 25.09.87 - 13,286 miles 24.05.88 - 22.962 miles 11.08.89 - 40,193 miles 29.06.90 - 44,516 miles 06.12.91 - 54,353 miles 31.03.93 - 59,839 miles 31.03.94 - 66,726 miles 31.03.95 - 78,522 miles 20.12.95 - 91,883 miles 25.06.96 - 97,023 miles 03.07.97 - 104,005 miles 16.10.98 - 111,647 miles 25.06.99 - 116,566 milles 18.09.00 - 123,614 miles 07.08.12 - 131,321 miles The vast majority of services were undertaken by Porsche or Porsche specialists. The car is still in relatively good condition. It starts, runs and can be driven a very short distance as the radiator currently leaks and will either need to be repaired or replaced. Further recommissioning work will also be necessary such as brakes and other standard processes you would need to go through before returning the car safely back to the road. The body work is generally in good condition, but some cosmetic improvement could be made to a few areas where the paint has suffered. This is mainly at the front tip of the bonnet and also the offside rear wing which has a dent. The interior leather seats are all generally in good order with no rips or tears. The passenger door card is currently in pieces but it is all there and needs to be reassembled and returned to the car. The electrics will all need to be checked. The sun roof is operational. The history file is thick with information with a fully stamped up service book along with the original driver's manual and other leaflets and booklets supplied when the car was new. The file includes a large number of service invoices and other invoices relating to work carried out on the car over the years. There is even all of the original paperwork when the car was bought from Porsche in 1987. Most of the old MOT certificates are also present. Looking through the file the last timing belt change was at 119,250 miles. This is a car that certainly needs work to get it back on the road, but prior to it being stored it has been well looked after with very regular servicing. The engine sounds fine and for someone that has the right skill set there should not be too much work to get this car back on the road and by doing so you will be adding lots of value to it given the almost full provenance it comes with.

1986 Austin Mini City E
This 1986 Austin Mini City E has had just three keepers in total and has had relatively limited use which is why it retains a low mileage of just 54,182 miles. The car has spent a good deal of its life in storage and after a number of years a prior custodian decided in 2013 to have it totally restored. It was given to a mini specialist, Somerford Mini who carried out a total refurbishment of the body replacing panels where necessary with genuine Rover/Heritage parts. The body refurbishment alone cost over £9,000 and combined with other works which included Converting the cylinder head to run on unleaded, New dashboard, New wider arches and wider wheels, New headlining, New carpets and underlay, Rebuilt suspension and running gear New rear subframe Engine checkover Rebuilt brakes Sports steering wheel New seat covers In total, just over £19,000 was spent on the restoration in 2013 and since then it has completed approximately 13,000 miles. As you will see from the photographs this is a superb looking car that needs nothing doing to it. The restoration is fully documented with a large number of invoices in the history file. There are also a number of old MOTs and other miscellaneous invoices along with all of the books that came with the car when new including the service book. The black paint finish is excellent and the interior is almost like new. The car starts on the button and runs and drives as it should. A new advisory free MOT has recently been issued. If you are looking for a practical every day classic which has had everything done this one is it. The engine is still relatively low mileage and given the preservation work that has been done, this car should provide excellent service in the years ahead. There are not many Minis of this era which have had almost £20k spent on them, and at just £7,950 we think it represent fantastic value for money.

1965 Jaguar Mk 2 3.8 Manual with Overdrive
There is generally no shortage of Jaguar MK2 cars available at any one time, but very good quality examples are still hard to come by and this is one such example which ticks all of the boxes and also has something very unique for a MK2 which is a factory fitted sunroof which Jaguar Heritage have confirmed was issued to just 8 cars! This MK2 3.8 is fitted with a manual gearbox with overdrive. It remains in its original colour scheme of carmen red with beige leather. It was fitted with a number of factory extra options including wire wheels, reclining front seats, overdrive and the super rare steel sliding sun roof. Most people at the time had an after market webasto roof fitted, which impacts on the lines of the car in our view. The factory fitted sunroof preserves the lines and it is also interesting to know that in order to supply the sliding steel sunroof it required Jaguar to supply a different bodyshell with supporting structure to accomodate the sunroof sliding panels, making this a very rare car indeed! Another major upgrade which has been fitted is power steering which makes the driving experience immeasurably better given how heavy they are on the steering without it. This is a matching numbers car as confirmed by the heritage certificate held on file. The original green log book is also with the car as is a written summary of the car's history which shows it to have just 5 keepers in total. A major restoration was undertaken by a previous custodian when he bought the car in 1989. This involved a full engine and body restoration when the car had completed approximately 89,000 miles. The engine restoration is documented by invoices held on file whilst the body restoration is documented by a written summary along with a photographic record of everything that was done at the time. The restoration work also included the interior and especially the woodwork which was professionally restored and still looks superb today. The full restoration took approximately 5 years to complete and was clearly done to a high standard. Fast forward to 2014 when the last custodian bought the car and at this time the interior was then restored with new leather for all of the seats and also the centre console. Since then it has been subjected to regular servicing and maintenance which has included an upgrade to an alternator, radiator re-core, new water pump, four new stainless steel 72 spoke wheels and a lot of other general maintenance to keep the car in first class condition. This is all documented by a plethora of invoices on file. Looking around the car today and it still presents superbly despite being 30 years on from its major restoration. The car starts on the button and drives as it should with a working overdrive. It has recently had a new MOT applied which is advisory free. The underside of the car is in excellent condition as the photographs will show with all four jacking points present and correct. The only noticeable negative with the body work is that the paint has lifted in front of the small lights that sit on top of the front wings. If you are looking for a Jaguar MK2, this one should be on your list to view. It not only has the sought after 3.8 manual with overdrive, but also comes with the factory sunroof which is rare as hens teeth, plus you get the added benefit of power steering and a full history file summarising what has happened to the car along with a heritage certificate and the green log book. Please call for further details and to arrange a viewing.

1956 Jensen 541
It is rare that we come across a car that ticks all of the boxes in terms of provenance and condition, and this Jensen 541 is one of those cars. It has been with the same custodian since 1967 (57 years of ownership!) and during that time the car has been meticulously cared for with a fully documented programme of works carefully carried out to keep the car in superb condition. The Jensen 541 is a rare car with just 197 cars having been built with an estimated 57 cars surviving today. It was the first full fibre glass car to be produced. This is a matching numbers car in its original colour scheme of gun metal grey. There is an extensive file several inches thick documenting all works carried out on the car and you will find within the photographs above a three page summary of the main works carried out. This includes a complete engine strip down and a total body refurbishment by a specialist restoration company in 1989 when the car was stripped back to its gel coat and any repairs were carried out prior to a re-paint. A new wiring loom has also been fitted and the interior seats restored where necessary. Please do look at the summary which is displayed among the photographs for a full break down. In October 2023 the car was given to a classic car specialist restorer to go through the car and carry out a full recommission check with any works carried out that were needed. The total cost of this work was approximately £6,000 and this included a strip down of the brakes, fitment of a new brake servo and a recore for the radiator. The car was raised to a high standard so that an MOT could be issued and that expires in October of this year. The owner has lavished a lot of time and money on this car although for the last 24 years or so he has chosen not to use it on the roads, but simply keep the maintenance up and the car ready for the when the time came to part with it. The car has not been used in the rain since 1970 and it has always been stored in a dry garage. At the time of the body refurbishment in 1989 the sill covers were removed so that the chassis could be inspected and it was given a clean bill of health by the restoration company at the time. The chassis rails were also injected with Waxoyl to ensure they remain well preserved. The history file provides a full story of everything that has happened to this car since 1968. This includes period photographs and old MOTs dating back to 1965. The original buff log book comes with the car which shows the name of the current custodian. There is a fair amount of technical data along with an instruction book. There is also a large number of invoices relating to all of the restoration work carried out over the years. All of the old registration documents are also in the file. Importantly the car still retains its original registration number. The car runs as it should and everything is functioning. It shows excellent oil pressure and as the photographs will demonstrate the gun metal grey finish looks very good on the car. There are some very minor areas where the paint finish is showing its age, but there are no cracks or other problem areas which can arise with this type of bodywork. It really is a superb looking car and if you are seeking a 541 we very much doubt you will find a better example with the provenance this car has. There are few cars out there which have had the same custodian for the best part of 60 years! Please call for further details.

1971 Jaguar E-Type Series 2
This Jaguar E-Type Series 2 4.2 started life in New York and was imported into the UK in 1990. It was subsequently converted to right hand drive. The car has been in the same family for over 20 years now and in 2015 a major refurbishment of the car was started which has included a full and documented £10,000 engine rebuild by Julian Godfrey Engineering in Heathfield. Further work was carried out on brakes, clutch, new radiator, but then following a bereavement work stopped and the car has since been in storage unfinished. Structurally the car is very sound and the remaining work required will include fitting various bits of interior trim which are either currently loosely fitted or out of the car awaiting fitment. The bodywork has a number of areas where there are minor issues such as some bubbling, marks or dents such as one at the back of the bonnet near to the bulkhead. The panel alignment is very good. The underside is all solid with just minor surface rust in a number of places. The chrome work has a few patches of surface rust. The chrome wire wheels are also showing rust but we believe they could be vastly improved using a specialist form of blasting. The car starts on the button, runs and drives, but recommissioning will be required before it can be used on the roads given the length of time it has stood. The history file contains a large number of invoices showing work carried out between 2015 and 2018 and this includes details of the full engine rebuild. There is also a heritage certificate on file which confirms that this is a matching numbers car. This car does not need a huge amount of work to get it up to a good standard. It is an ideal way into E-Type ownership, particularly for someone who has the skill set to carry out the remaining work themselves and we consider it good value at £37,950.

1930 Talbot A075 6-Light saloon by Darracq
This Talbot is a real rarity being one of possibly just two surviving A075 18h.p cars and we believe it is the oldest surviving example. We have been instructed by a local client to sell the car on his behalf having been in ownership for the last 14 years. The body was fitted by Darracq on the 18th August 1930 and was delivered on the 18th Sep to Pass & Joyce Ltd. The 75 was introduced in 1930 and benefitted from an enlarged engine with 2.3 litres compared to the earlier 14/45 cars which had just 1.7 litre engines. The 75 was produced with various coachwork options up until 1935 and it was produced at the same time as its big brothers such as the '90', '105' and '110'. This car began its life in London where it remained throughout the war. The history file in fact has a very detailed summary of all custodians right up to the present day which is rather nice to have and previous owners have taken the time to research the car to ensure it has a comprehensive history. In the 80s/90s we believe it was subject to a long 15 year restoration which entailed a new head gasket, new Hertford shock absorbers, springs re-set, various aspects of the leather interior trim have been renewed to the original pattern, and the car was re-wired along with some panel work renewed. This is some 30 plus years ago and the car now is sporting a number of imperfections, minor bubbling in various areas and some minor dents on the nearside rear wing. The interior is still lovely and clearly it has had a new headlining at some point and the seat leather is generally in good condition. The front seat has some repairs that have been made to the passenger seat squab. The wood is all in nice condition and has been refurbished at some point in its life. Overall the interior can be described as excellent and even the carpets look very nice. You also benefit from a large sliding roof when the sun comes out! It has been in storage for the last 8 years and we have got the car running well and the brakes are also working well. The car literally starts on the button and you almost cannot hear it as the pre-engaged starter whisks the engine into life almost instantly! There is a lovely exhaust note and plenty of power available from the 2.3 litre engine so lots of scope for good runs out and attending shows etc. We have only driven it around our complex, but it seems to run well. Further recommissioning will be required as the Dynostarter is not presently charging and the exhaust downpipe in the engine bay is leaking a bit. The history file includes the original buff logbook from when it was registered in 1930 and there are also several continuation logbooks which help to complete the history. In addition there is the original 'Handbook of Instructions' along with lots of written correspondence between previous custodians discussing the history of the car. The car has huge potential and great presence, it is a very rare piece of motoring history that now needs a new custodian to maintain its preservation and use it as intended.

1962 Morris Mini Pickup
This 1962 Morris Mini Pickup is now a very rare car, especially the very early examples such as this one. This pickup can only be described as in as new condition and quite probably better. It has been treated to an extensive and very thorough restoration resulting in a pickup that will undoubtedly win shows. The body and paintwork has been done to a very good standard and the interior has been completely refurbished. The engine was not rebuilt as it has a believed genuine 28,800 miles on the clock and an assessment was made that it simply did not need it. This has car has the floor push button starter and sliding windows, plus the large door bins and external boot hinges which are features of the early cars. This car also benefits from a brand new canvas tilt at a cost of £1,600. The tilt was surprisingly an optional extra on a pickup. This one also has a full width rear bumper which is another feature of the early pickups. The history file contains the original buff logbook and amazingly a copy of the original purchase invoice. There is also a heritage letter detailing that this is an original pickup. This is a certainly a very appealing Mini and one which will create a huge amount of interest at any show. The condition is as good as it gets and the restoration cost of achieving what you see today would most likely exceed the asking price. Please call for further details and to arrange a viewing.

1969 MGB Roadster - Heritage body
This MGB was bought by its last custodian in 1973 and has been owned by her up until now. The car was treated to a total rebuild in 2001 using a new BMH bodyshell which was painted to a very high standard in Snowberry white. The rebuild was focused on keeping the car as authentic as possible such as original spec 1969 leather seats. Everything was rebuilt or reconditioned including the engine, rear axle, suspension, gearbox and overdrive, plus a new wiring loom. The engine was rebuilt to unleaded spec. The car received a new interior and new hood. Sometime in 2007 the car was taken off the road and put into storage and it wasn't until this year that it has been recommissioned and put back on the road. It has covered a mere 1,295 since the rebuild in 2001 and still looks restoration fresh. With a new heritage shell the gaps are all excellent and most importantly the doors sit flush. The car runs exceptionally well with a working overdrive and as part of the recommissioning work it has recently been fitted with a brand new set of chrome wire wheels. The photographs say it all, it looks great and with so few miles on the clock since a total rebuild which 22 years ago cost £16,450, the car is ready for many years of motoring. With a heritage shell, it looks super straight and is ready for its next custodian. The history file contains full details of the rebuild along with invoices and even the purchase invoice for the car in 1973. A fresh and clean MOT will be put on the car once a sale is agreed. The asking price is £14,950 which is less than the cost of the rebuild 20 years ago and most likely half what it would cost you now to achieve the same result making this something of a bargain!

1990 Volvo 240GL - 36600 miles and one owner from new
A casual glance at the current adverts for Volvo 240 cars and you will undoubtedly find some true workhorses for sale that have covered the best part of 150,000 miles and are still going strong. This particular example is the most cosseted and cared for 240 you are going to find. It has had one lady owner from new and has covered a mere 36,600 miles only. What's more, every single year of its life it has had a documented service. The interior is mint and apart from one minor scuff the bodywork is also near immaculate. You won't find a better example of a classic which is still appreciating in value but could so easily be used as an everyday car if you wanted. The service book has stamps everywhere and the car has even had more than one service in a year despite its ridiculously low mileage. Timing belt changes have also been done, the last of which was in November 2020 at a mileage of 36,503 miles which is around 100 miles ago! The car has been religiously serviced every year even when it has only done 50 miles. A new fuel pump was fitted this year, but the car needs for nothing. The only missing thing is one Volvo emblem from one wheel trim. You can readily find them on Ebay. You could not ask for a better history confirming the car has been maintained to the utmost degree. With just one owner from new you are not in our opinion going to find a better example of a Volvo 240GL. Everything works and the car glides through the gears on the autobox without issue. The car comes with its very full service book along with service invoices and MOTs. The original purchase invoice is also present along with the instruction book and other documents the car was issued with when new. Given the quality of this car we do not expect it to hang around!

1985 Volkswagen T25 Camper Van - High Top
We have been asked by a local client to sell this VW Type 25/T3 Camper Van which has been the subject of major restoration work over the last two years with a number of upgrades and a refit to make it reliable and very much ready for long distance camping trips. The work has been extensive and the total bill excluding the cost of the van has come to a little under £40k. The engine was upgraded to a newly rebuilt 2.1 litre water cooled unit supplied by the VW Engine Company who also fitted the engine along with the renewal of brakes, clutch, a new stainless steel exhaust and other work which came to a total cost of just under £9,000. The van was subject to some body refurbishment where necessary and the primary goal was to build a van that can be used and consequently the paint finish will not win any shows, but it is presentable. There are a few areas of minor bubbling which would be easy to address in the future. The most fetching feature of this van is the interior where no expense has been spared in fitting a complete new interior. This has included Bentley stitch type leather seats and door cards along with a full refit of the back of the van with wheat coloured carpet and headlining. The appliances are all new and the work included : New insulated floor with vinyl cover. 12v electric system Mains hook up 12v leisure battery Mains leisure battery charger Control panel Internal mains socket x2 Lighting system Outside waste outlet Water storage Cream gloss worktop Glass topped sink and matching 2x burner hob and chrome mixer tap. Electrically pumped water supply RCD Breaker Rock and Roll bed fully upholstered with Bentley stitch tan green stitching. Gas regulator Gas fitting Fridge A good number of cupboards plus storage space at the rear and above the front cab. Roof vent with electric fan LED worktop lights The total cost of the above work to make this camper's interior a very special place to be was £14,352. To add to the driving experience electric power steering has been fitted at a cost of £1,134. The van starts on the button and runs beautifully as you would expect of a brand new engine. The gearbox works as it should and moves through the gears without issue. The van also benefits from superb Porsche style wheels. The history file has a full complement of invoices detailing the extensive work that has been carried out and they total £38,500. The van also comes with a small tent and potentially also a good sized awning/tent. The current MOT expires on the 6th September and a fresh MOT will be placed on the van at the time of sale. If you are seeking a camper that has had all of the major work done this one certainly ticks the boxes. It was restored by the current custodian with a view to keeping it for many years to come and is only being sold due to ill health. Please call for further details and to arrange a viewing.

1954 MG TF1500
This superb home market MG TF1500 has clearly been the subject of considerable expenditure in the past. The car was painted in 2013 and had further work carried out over the years. The interior was refurbished in 2013 with new leather and the hood was also replaced with a Double Duck hood as well as the sidescreens being refurbished. The carbs were rebuilt in 2016 and in recent years other work has included a renewal of the brakes, new clutch, radiator re-cored and a new wiper motor. The car still presents extremely well with excellent paint and chromework. The seats still look fresh and the carpets are almost like new. There is a full complement of wet weather gear. The car starts on the button and the engine runs cleanly and the car pulls well. The later TFs are certainly the best for driving experience in our view with the additional power making them ideal for keeping up with modern traffic. The history file is thick with miscellaneous invoices over the years. Everything is functioning as it should and this super looking TF is ready for its next custodian. We believe this car is excellent value for money at £23,500.

1968 MGC Roadster - Fully restored
This superb MGC Roadster has been with its last custodian for 8 years. The car was completely restored by the previous custodian to a very high standard which included a full body refurbishment with the replacement of panels where needed. The car has been well cared for during the last eight years with regular servicing and any issues that have arisen have been dealt with. The car has completed less than 2,500 since its restoration and as you would expect it still presents exceptionally well as the photographs will demonstrate. The restoration was carried out by someone with the necessary trade skills to achieve a high standard of work. The paint remains excellent with just the odd blemish from ageing. The interior looks fresh and was completely renewed at the time of restoration. There is a full photographic record of the restoration on file. The car starts on the button and runs and pulls very well with a working overdrive which is essential on one of these. The mohair hood is generally in good order apart from a crack in the offside rear quarter window which could be repaired relatively easily. The colour combination of mineral blue, black interior and chrome wire wheels really work well for this car. The chromework is all excellent. A service has just been undertaken and that included new brake cylinders for the rear wheels. The MOT expires on the 24th June 2024 and is advisory free. The file is thick with invoices and a large number of photographs detailing the restoration. The restoration cost of achieving a car of this standard would approach £20,000 now and if you are seeking an MGC this is undoubtedly one of the best on the market and should be on your list to view at the earliest opportunity.

1993 Mercedes E220 Cabriolet
This superb Mercedes E220 Cabriolet has been with its last keeper for 25 years. She bought the car in 1998 with a mileage of 24,056 miles on the clock and that now stands at 44,486 miles. It has completed just over 20,000 miles in 25 years. The car has been well pampered having been garaged for the last 25 years with frequent services which are all stamped up in the service book.

The same may be said of the interior which apart from minor wear on the driver's seat still looks fantastic which reflects its low mileage. The hood is also in excellent condition with no wear or tears and the inside lining is also superb. The hood mechanism works as it should with no issues. The electric windows and mirrors are all operational. Mechanically the car is excellent and it starts on the button and the auto gearbox glides through the gears without issue. This really is a near mint example of a Mercedes E220 and undoubtedly if it is looked after it will give many years of good service. It is often said that Mercedes cars of this era were almost over engineered and it is easy to see why given how robust they are when looked after well, The history file contains various books which the car came with when new and this includes the stamped up service book. The invoice for when the car was bought in 1998 is also within the file. This car is undoubtedly one of the best examples out there and for such a low mileage car in such superb condition we believe it is very competitively priced.

1974 Triumph Stag - for restoration
This Stag was last on the road in 1987 and will require a full restoration. The car has survived quite well and whilst there are areas of blistering and work required to areas such as the front wheel arches, the underside is in generally good shape with just light corrosion. The sills all appear to be solid. The floor pans are all good as you will see in the photographs. The car has done a little under 49,000 miles from new and the interior is almost mint apart from some wear to the piping on the driver's seat bolster. The interior woodwork is almost like new. The hood has no holes although the rear screen is badly misted. The hardtop has light surface rust but is in generally good shape. As you would expect the engine is seized. This car has lots of potential with some bodywork required and a re-spray. The interior needs nothing and you are left with bringing the engine back to life. Lots to do, but for someone with the right skill set there is lots of potential to add value to this car. We have an old style V5 on record and the buyer will have to apply for a new V5. The original instruction manual also comes with the car.

1973 Jaguar E-Type Series 3 Roadster
This 1973 Jaguar E-Type Series 3 Roadster is one of the best examples we have come across for quite some time. The car was treated to a £50k refurbishment in 2010 which was completed to a very high standard. The panel alignment is superb with the doors and bonnet sitting flush which so often is not the case if a car is put back together badly. This car really ticks the boxes with all elements of the car having been refurbished or replaced where needed. This included a full body refurbishment and mechanics where needed such as the brakes, brake servo and clutch. The interior is black leather which was reconnolised and is showing only minor wear. The top half of the engine was stripped and cleaned, but nothing further was required here as the car has a believed genuine 49,600 miles on the clock. It runs beautifully and pulls through the gears without issue. The history file contains invoices and full spreadsheets of the work carried out in 2010. The car has been regularly maintained and has been with the same custodian for over 20 years. The car has the added benefit of a works style hard top. There is also a full workshop manual. There is a heritage certificate on file which confirms this is a matching numbers car in its original colour scheme. There are a lot of E-Types on the market, but surprisingly few are really nice examples with no corrosion issues and excellent panel alignment. This one does tick all of the boxes and we strongly recommend viewing if you are looking for an exceptional series 3 car.

Top quality low mileage examples with excellent provenance are hard to find and this particular example ticks all of the boxes. Nearly all of the service history has been undertaken by Porsche main dealers or Porsche specialists The condition of the car is commensurate with its low mileage. The Arena Red paint is in superb condition and the grey leather interior as you will see from the photographs is in exceptional condition. This car has the attraction of having a manual gearbox. The car has air conditioning and a rear window wiper is fitted. The windscreen is top-tinted and the seats have electric height adjustment. When buying these cars provenance really counts and this one has a fully stamped up service book and we have listed the dates of the service and annual checks undertaken below. The car's history file documents all work undertaken over the years. More recent work includes a new clutch in June 2016. In August 2018 the engine was removed so that any oil leaks could be rectified including the front crank shaft oil seal. The rear shock absorbers were replaced and the air conditioning system was checked and recharged. The rear heater blower motor was also replaced at the time. In fact a Porsche specialist went through the whole car in April 2017 and any issues were addressed. This car has been well cared for and has clearly had a pampered life. If you are seeking a low mileage 993 this one is hard to beat. It has the provenance and is a varioram model in a really nice colour scheme. Everything works as it should and the car has a clean MOT until March 2024 The history file contains miscellaneous invoices relating to work done over the years along with the Porsche wallet which includes the service book, driver's manual and other literature issued with the car when new. There are also a number of MOT certificates. This is a rare opportunity to buy a 993 Targa with less than 50,000 miles on the clock.

1970 Morris Minor Traveller
We have been asked to sell on behalf of a local client this 1970 Morris Minor which was previously supplied to them by the Charles Ware Morris Minor Centre. It has clearly been restored in the past and now presents as an older restoration. The paint finish as the photographs will demonstrate is very good and the issues relate to some minor rust in just a few areas. The recent MOT has identified some deterioration to the wood mainly under the nearside rear door, but this can be easily addressed in due course. Overall the car still actually presents very well indeed and the interior is in generally very good order. The front seats are a departure from the normal seats you would find, but they do provide for a much more comfortable and improved driving position. The rear seats are in good order and the loading bay is also in good condition. The car as typically for a Morris Minor starts on the button and drives very well. A service has just been undertaken and a new rear brake cylinder has been fitted as part of this. The car has a brake servo and is fitted with inertia reel seat belts front and rear. The history file includes miscellaneous invoices as well as the current MOT which expires in June 2024 along with a handbook. Overall this car remains in generally good condition and it wouldn't take a huge amount of work to take it to a higher level or simply use the car as it is.

1989 Jaguar XJS V12 Convertible
We are selling this 1998 Jaguar XJS Convertible on behalf of a local client. The car has been in his ownership for the last 25 years. During that time it has been well cared for with regular servicing and maintenance. In fact in recent years a considerable amount has been spent on maintaining the car with areas such as suspension, brakes and the radiator core being renewed. The car has had some work done to address corrosion which primarily focused on the front floor pans, offside sill and one of the doors. As the photographs will demonstrate, the car presents well and the body work is very presentable with just minor blemishes, scratches etc. The car starts on the turn of the key and runs without issue. It glides through the gears as an XJS does. The interior seats are showing their age but are still presentable whilst the hood is in good condition and it works without issue. The underside of the car is in good order with no corrosion issues. The history file includes a plethora of invoices detailing work undertaken over the years. Whenever an issue has surfaced the owner has had it attended to. The car has a current MOT which expires in November and is advisory free. The car is priced very competitively for what is a very useable and presentable car.

1962 MG Midget MK1 - GAN1 - Totally rebuilt
This superb MK1 MG Midget has been the subject of a very thorough rebuild which took the body back to bare metal. The quality of the work is superb and just to finish the car we have rebuilt the engine at a cost of £3,000. The car runs and drives beautifully and now needs running in. The car has had an interior retrim with the seats now covered in black leather. The engine bay is a work of art as the pictures will demonstrate. The underside is excellent and the car is just an exceptionally nice example which is ready for the show season ahead. The history file contains a complete photographic rebuild of the body in 2012 and we have photographs and documents relating to the recent engine rebuild. There are also old MOT certificates including some dated in the 70s. An old green logbook is present showing the car still has its original registration number which must have some value in it as well. This is a well sorted GAN1 Midget which is superb bodily and mechanically and should provide many years of fun open top motoring.

1946 MG TC
This 1946 MG TC had resided with its last custodian for ten years and during that time it has been well maintained and cared for. The car has been the subject of significant restoration in the past which began in 1991 when the car was rebuilt from the chassis up with a new body tub and the total cost of this work 30 years ago was approaching £8,000 which would be several multiples higher in today's money. Since then the car has been regularly maintained and a further engine strip down and rebuild was undertaken in 2014. The car still presents extremely well today with generally excellent paintwork apart from the odd blemish which is to be expected after so many years since the main restoration was completed. The leather seats show some discolouration in places, but remain in good condition with no rips or tears. The dashboard is also in excellent condition. The car has a full complement of wet weather gear sidescreens. The hood is made of cloth and although showing its age in places remains water tight. The chrome is all in very good condition as the photographs will demonstrate. The car fires up on the button and runs cleanly and moves through the gears without issue. The history file is very substantial and starts from the late 70s and includes the fully documented rebuilt undertaken in 1991. Overall this is a really nice older restoration which should offer it next custodian many years of fun open top motoring. We believe the car is excellent value at the asking price of £21,950.

1976 Triumph Stag - Fully rebuilt
This 1976 Triumph Stag has recently emerged from long term storage. The car was fully rebuilt in 1991 by a professional restoration company, CPR Engineering. The restoration was comprehensive with a body and mechanical refurbishment which included an engine rebuild. This work was done to a very hig h standard and the car was well cared for and maintained subsequent to the restoration until around 2010 when the car was put into storage having covered around 22,000 miles. The car has recently been recommissioned and is running very well indeed with no issues and is even drip free underneath. The bodywork remains in superb condition with an excellent paint finish. The chrome is in super condition as well and it is clear the car was stored very carefully. The underside is excellent and the cloth hood is almost like new. The interior was refurbished during the restoration including restoration of the dashboard. The history file contains full invoices for the rebuild in 1991 as well as further refurbishment of the heads in 2002. There are also a plethora of MOT certificates dating back to 1990. A heritage certificate is on file confirming that the car remains in its original colour spec of Russet Brown with a Beige Ambla interior. There is also a hard top which is in good condition. To top it all the car has been in the same ownership for the last 33 years. It is a long time since we have seen a Stag in such great condition with excellent provenance. We think this car is unbeatable value at the asking price of £14,950. A full MOT will be placed on the car at the time of sale.

The underside is as the car left the factory and remains in superb condition. We will place a fresh advisory free MOT on this car at the point of sale.

Austin Healey 100/6 BN4
This Austin Healey 100/6 has recently emerged from a period of refurbishment after a long period of storage which has focused on a body restoration which involved the body being completely stripped, blasted and primed. Panels have been repaired or replaced as necessary and the body has been repainted in its original colour of red. Mechanically the car was already very sound with a strong engine displaying good oil pressure.However, other required work that has been done includes a new brake master cylinder, wheel cylinders, new brake and flexi pipes. A new wiring loom has been fitted. The front seats have been re-trimmed in leather whist the rear seats have been retained as their condition does not warrant renewal and it is good to retain as much originality as possible. New carpets have been fitted along with new door cards.Other work includes a new clutch master cylinder, flexi pipe and a centre plate. The suspension has also been renewed with new road springs, anti roll bar links etc. The end result is a very capable and useable Austin Healey which drives exceptionally well showing good oil pressure and it moves through the gears without issue and includes a working overdrive. The car is fitted with a works factory hard top which is in good order with the headlining still intact and just showing some staining on the sides. The history file includes the original buff logbook which confirms that this is a matching numbers car in its original colour scheme. The are many invoices relating to the recent refurbishment which total the best part of £10k for parts alone. There are some old MOT certificates from the 80s along with a workshop manual and other literature.

1971 MGB Roadster
This MGB Roadster has been in the same family for 30 years during which time it was treated to a total restoration which has included the fitment of power steering. The car has completed few miles since the rebuild and it has been very carefully preserved which has included treating all of the chrome to an annual coating of duck oil!. Suffice to say the chrome is near perfect including the chrome wire wheels. The body work paint is exceptionally good with a nice flat finish. The interior cabin has beige leather which is still in excellent condition as is the cloth hood. The underside of the car is all in very good order and we understand that the car was never taken out in the wet. The car is fitted with a high torque starter motor and it starts and settles into tick over very quickly indeed. On the road the car pulls well and goes through the gears without issue. It is fitted with a working overdrive. This is a really fine example of an MGB with possibly one of the best colour combinations. We recommend viewing at your earliest opportunity.

Porsche 996 Carrera 4 Cabriolet. 39,500 miles from new.
If you are seeking a 996, this car should be top of your list. With just one owner since 2000 and a fully stamped up service book by Porsche or Porsche specialists this is an exceptional car given its low mileage of just 39,500 miles from new. The car has just been put through a major service and the issues identified have been dealt with and as result new front and rear discs and pads have been fitted along with front and rear anti-roll bar bushes. In fact more than £6,000 has been spent on the car during the last six months or so to ensure it is in perfect order. The bodywork is in excellent condition with its original paint and the only negatives are some very small dents in the driver's door due to car doors being opened on it. This could be remedied with a good dent man. The interior is all superb as you would expect of such a low mileage car and the condition of the hood is also very good indeed apart from the rear screen which is clouded with age. The car also comes with its original hard top. The history file contains the driver's manual and service book along with other documentation when the car was new. There are many service invoices and other miscellaneous invoices including a full schedule of the checks and work carried out during the recent major service. The car runs and drives at it should and the 6 speed manual gearbox goes through the gears without issue. The Carrera 4 is a sought after variant and with such low mileage and a full service history this car does tick all of the boxes. We believe it is excellent value at the asking price of £19,500.

1961 Jensen 541S - for restoration
A real rarity and undoubtedly the most sought after of the 541 series of Jensen car. This particular 541S is chassis number 100/1058 with engine number 40/A/11094. With a reported 127 or so cars built there are very few of these cars that ever become available and this car has been with its current custodian for over 30 years. The car is fitted with the Rolls-Royce 'Hydramatic' 4 speed gearbox. The 541S was something of a milestone as the first British car to have seat belts fitted as standard equipment and the pioneering use of Dunlop disc brakes on all four wheels. Jensen used their own powerful version of the Austin DS5 4-litre straight-six engine (featuring triple H4 type SU carburettors) to create a very capable GT. This car is being sold as in need of full restoration. It has had some remedial work carried out in recent years to the engine. Copredy Bridge stripped the engine and cleaned the head and block before re-assembly in 2018. The carbs were rebuilt by them in 2019, but since then the car has stood and will therefore require further recommissioning. The car does start, run and can be moved around. The body has been stripped and painted in places, but the next custodian may choose to fully strip the car and carry out a full re-paint. The GRP body is in good condition. The interior seats are generally in good condition apart from the top of the front passenger seat which has suffered some damage. We have boxes of parts, trim etc and we believe the car to be complete. A full inspection of everything can be made by prospective buyers. The chassis appears to be in good order. This is one restoration project that will be very worthwhile indeed. The 541S with its wider track and remodeled front end is undoubtedly the best looking of the 541 series and combined with better roadholding and a strong power unit, it makes for a superb grand tourer. We have seen good examples sell for in excess of £60k and a concours car closer to £100k. That should leave the next custodian with plenty of scope to bring this car back to life and add value given our asking price of £23,500. Offers are invited.

1951 MG TD
This 1952 MG TD is in superb condition having been the subject of a chassis up rebuild in 2003 which included a new body tub. The colour combination of black coachwork with a beige interior works really well and the paint finish is still excellent. The interior has held up well over the years and although showing some minor wear it is still in good order. The chassis was blasted and painted and remains in excellent order. The car has clearly been well kept and not used in wet weather conditions. The chromework looks fresh and is free of any pitting. The car starts on the button and drives as you would expect with the engine running cleanly and the car moves through the gears without issue. There is full wet weather gear and also a hood bag. The history file includes photographs of the major restoration that took place in 2003. There is also a full workshop manual along with some period advertising material. This is a well sorted older restoration and is in fine condition which we feel is excellent value at the asking price of £17,950.

1959 Triumph TR3A
This superb Triumph TR3A has been with the same family for the last 30 years and only comes to market following the death of the owner. The car is in fantastic condition having been treated to a full body off restoration between 1997 and 2000 which was carried out by a professional restoration shop and is fully documented along with a photographic record. As part of the restoration the engine and gearbox were also rebuilt so effectively everything on the car was either restored or refurbished. Subsequent to the restoration the car was placed in storage and was unfortunately never used until now. To get the car roadworthy it has been fully recommissioned and has a current MOT which expires in August 2023. The recent recommissioning has included: Carb rebuild New front brake calipers New rear brake cylinders New brake master cylinder Front brake pads New hoses New ignition leads/points/condenser/rotor arm Full service New wheel bearings Total cost of recommission was £2,685. The car starts on the button and runs cleanly and pulls well through the gears. The overdrive is working as it should with the car showing good oil pressure. It is a joy drive and the steel hard top really sets the car off well against the white coachwork and wire wheels. There are a few blemishes on the paint arising from its lengthy storage, but very little to detract from what is a super looking car. The carpets are threadbare in places and ideally should be replaced. The sidescreens are present and in good condition. The history file contains all of the invoices relating to the restoration along with other miscellaneous invoices including the recent recommissioning. We have a heritage certificate on file which confirms that this is a matching numbers car in its original colour with its original interior. This is a really excellent example which has a fully rebuilt engine and restored body that is just crying out to be used.

The restoration has included a good upgrade which is an XPAG engine that has been fully rebuilt although the original engine block will come with the car. The full list of works includes the following: All body panels blasted, primed and painted Front brakes renewed, rear brakes overhauled New brake master cylinder Kings pins and rear trunnion bushes renewed New tyres and tubes Radiator re-cored with all new hoses Chromework re-chromed where needed Engine re-sleeved, re bored, new pistons, crankshaft re-ground with new bearings, cylinder head overhauled Fast road cam fitted Stainless steel exhaust fitted New wiring loom All instruments overhauled New interior trim and new carpets New hood, sidescreens, new frame and fixings New clutch drive plate - a later MG TD gearbox has been fitted which is all synchro. New ignition system and light switches New road wheel spinners New petrol tank straps and rubbers New wood as required, floor boards, rear panel and storage panel New battery and isolator switch New instrument mounting panel Direction indicators fitted Dynamator fitted. As you can see the list is very comprehensive and the total cost of the restoration has come to a little under £20k and that does not include a large element of labour. There is also the useful upgrade of a Dynamator which is effectively an alternator packaged as a Dynamo. The end result as the pictures will show is a lovely looking MG TA in a very attractive colour combination of black with red leather. The car runs and drives as it should and provides a lively performance with the fast road cam that has been fitted. The history files contains a thick pile of invoices relating to the restoration. The car is the perfect way to start a summer of motoring.

1975 MGB GT
This exceptionally nice MGB GT was sold by us in early 2021 and the owner has decided it is time for a change and hence the car is now back with us. Prior to its sale last year the car had been in the same family ownership since new, passing from father to son in 1997. The car has completed very little mileage in recent decades and had been in storage for 10 years prior to its sale last year. The car was subject to full recommissioning when it emerged from storage. The total mileage showing is believed correct at 55,005 miles although we do not have sufficient MOT history to warrant this. What we do know is that the car received an Ivor Searle reconditioned engine in 1999 and this engine has completed a little under 1,200 miles which makes this a very low mileage car. In 2006 the car was also subject to a total body restoration which included new panels where required including two new front wings and a complete respray. The interior was also re-trimmed during the restoration. The total cost of this restoration was £6,471.74. The recent recommissioning process has included a new battery, new fuel pump, new clutch slave cylinder and a new alternator. The current MOT expires in February 2023 . During the last 18 months or so the car has had further expenditure which totals almost £4,000. This includes a new stainless steel exhaust, a complete interior makeover with new leather front seats, matching rear seat, headrests, door caps, floor mats, Mota Lita leather steering wheel, new inertia reel seat belts, and the fitment of a Caliber DAB radio and speakers. As the photographs will demonstrate, the interior looks fantastic! The exterior of the car continues to present very well with the odd paint blemish, but otherwise in very good order. The underside is clean and in good condition. The history file contains invoices relating to the rebuild in 2006 along with the Ivor Searle engine details. All of the recent expenditure is also documented. With the prices of good chrome bumper cars now comfortably exceeding £10,000 it is inevitable that the rubber bumper prices are going to follow higher and this car in our view is excellent value for money given its low ownership and superb condition.

The condition of the body is generally excellent as the photographs will demonstrate and the interior leather remains in very good condition. The car has been issued with a fresh MOT which is advisory free and expires in July 2023.

1981 Triumph Spitfire 1500 - 25,000 miles from new
This 1981 Triumph Spitfire 1500 has had just two keepers, the first of which owned the car up until four years ago. It then passed to its second custodian who has completed less that 150 miles in the car. The car has been stored for the last two years and is now in need of some basic recommissioning. The last MOT was carried out in October 2020 which was advisory free and it will not require much work to get the car back on the road. Please call for more details on this. The bodywork is all original and has had no repairs. The underside of the car still retains its factory underseal and is in excellent condition with no previous repairs. The hood is tatty and has one small split which could be repaired. There is a dent in the top of the nearside rear wing which a good dent man would be able to remove. Panel fits are all good which you would expect from an unmolested low mileage car. The bulk head area where the master cylinders sit is untidy and could do with a re-paint. The car car fires on the button and runs well and cleanly. We have not driven the car due to the lack of brakes. There is a full tonneau with the car. This is a good recommissioning project for someone, with plenty of scope to add value especially given the car's low mileage. Priced to sell as we are desperately in need of the showroom space. We can recommission the car if necessary for the next custodian.

1971 Triumph TR6 - Completely rebuilt
This TR6 was the subject of a total restoration in 2002 which included an engine rebuild. Subsequent to that the car has had limited use and has completed a little over 5,000 miles since then. The body is as new with no repairs of any kind and the same may also be said of the chassis. This is a matching numbers UK right hand drive car fitted with an overdrive gearbox. The paint finish is excellent with just the odd minor blemish. The interior was refurbished at the time of the restoration and the seats, door cards and dashboard are all in superb condition. The engine bay is nicely detailed and mechanically the car is excellent and it starts on the button, runs cleanly and pulls well through the gears and the working overdrive unit. The head has been converted to unleaded. The front bumper does show some chrome peeling and would benefit from a re-chrome, but apart from that this car is in exceptionally nice condition and with an advisory free MOT which expires in August next year, it is now ready for a new custodian. The last owner had the car for 42 years!

1954 MG TF 1250
This lovely MG TF 1250 has been with the same family for the last 23 years. It has clearly been very well maintained and preserved. Prior to their ownership the car was subjected to a full body refurbishment and in 2004 the engine was fully rebuilt by Brown and Gammons which included an unleaded conversion at a cost of £8,000. Since then the engine has completed just 5,000 miles. As the photographs will demonstrate the paint finish on the car remains excellent and mechanically the car is still in super order as you would expect of a car that has only done 5,000 miles on a fully rebuilt engine. The interior is showing some wear in places but remains generally in good order. The car starts on the button and runs cleans and moves through the gears without issue. More recent work includes new rear brake master cylinders and a new water pump. It has full wet weather gear and a tonneau. The history file contains various invoices relating to work carried out over the years including the full detailed invoice for the work carried out by Brown and Gammons on the engine in 2004. Also included is a handbook and a number of other reference books on the TC. There are also numerous spares that come with the car. The car has been maintained well over the last 20 years and should give many years of excellent service to its next custodian

1972 MGB Roadster
At Castle Classic Cars we only select a few MGB Roadsters each year as there is a limited supply of top examples, and this is one such car. It has been rebuilt in the past to an exceptionally high standard with mirror finish paint, a perfectly detailed engine bay and an up-rated interior with superb black leather seats. All of the MGB's that we sell have superb panel alignment and this car certainly ticks that box as you will see from the photographs. The engine looks to be on a genuine mileage of 48,000 miles based upon the MOT history that we have. The chrome work is like new and the car just looks and drives superbly. The provenance box is also ticked with its original purchase invoice and receipt still in the history file along with other paperwork it was issued with when new. There are lots of invoices relating to maintenance over the years as well. The current MOT which is advisory free expires in June 2023 and a quick glance at the MOT history which you can see online will show it has passed every time without an advisory since 2006. The car pulls well through the gears, runs cleanly with good oil pressure. The overdrive gearbox works as it should and the car is a joy to drive. There are lots of MGBs on the market, but if you want one that you can truly be proud of and take to the local shows, this one should be on your list to view, you won't be disappointed!

1992 Ford Escort RS Cosworth - Big Turbo model
The Ford Escort RS Cosworth really needs no introduction but to briefly summarise it was a sports derivative and rally homologation special of the fifth generation Ford Escort. This model was available as a road car between 1992 and 1996 and a total of 7,145 cars were built. The first generation which comprised 2,500 cars were built for homologation and these were fitted with the larger Garrett T34 Turbo. The early cars are the more sort after of which this is one being registered in August 1992. This particular example has been with the last custodian for seven years and during that time it has remained in storage and has covered approximately 400 miles. It has been well preserved and cared for over the last seven years. Prior to that the car was again kept in storage for over 10 years which accounts for the current mileage of 65,951 miles. The car retains all of its originality including its factory paint which has various blemishes but overall presents very well indeed as the photographs will demonstrate. Equipment includes electrically operated door mirrors, electric front windows, heated front and rear windscreen and washer jets, headlight washers, opening rear quarter vent windows. centre and rear arm rests and rear head restraints, load compartment light, turbo gauge, voltmeter, oil pressure gauge, height adjustable driver's seat, three spoke leather steering wheel, quartz digital clock, glovebox illumination, locking body-coloured fuel cap, central locking,remote tailgate release, spare wheel cover, The interior still presents very well indeed with a good dashboard that has no cracks whilst the Recaro seats which are finished in the Polaris Grey Hex cloth are still in good condition and just show minor wear in places. The rear seats are in excellent condition. The boot space is in good condition with no marks on the carpet. The carpets are all in good condition having been protected by mats. Externally the car has body colour front bumper with black lower splitter, louvred bonnet air intakes, wing air extraction grilles, aerodynamic rear wing with lower boot spoiler, Ford RS five-spoke alloy wheels. The underside of the car remains in very good condition. Overall this is very much a factory original car which is showing the odd blemish but in the main remains in excellent condition after its near 66,000 miles. We cannot warrant the mileage, but knowing how long the car has remained in storage and looking at the originality and condition of the car the mileage looks to be correct. The engine starts on the button and pulls well with no smoke and the gearbox goes through the gears without issue. The last cambelt change was in September 2017 when the mileage stood at 65,747 miles. The history file contains the V5 and miscellaneous invoices including the latest cambelt change. The car has had 6 keepers in total. Fast Fords of any description have been in vogue for quite some time which is why values of these rare Cosworth powered Escorts continue to climb in value. This car has lots of appeal given its originality which even includes the water bag from the injection kit as well as the fitted brick size mobile phone holder! The trajectory of values remains on an upward course and this relatively low mileage car provides the perfect opportunity to grab an early Escort RS Cosworth that should deliver further valuation upside over the coming years.

1975 Triumph TR6
This TR6 has lots of potential and provides the perfect basis for a restoration which will be very rewarding for its next custodian. The car has remained in Kent from new and was sold by Caffyns of Tenterden in 1975 to its first owner who retained the car for a good 10 years and during that time the car completed a significant percentage of its total mileage. In many respects this car has almost perfect provenance with a complete history file for its first 10 years which includes the original purchase invoice and every subsequent invoice for work and servicing carried out on the car until 1985 when it had covered around 65,000 miles. After that the car has had much more limited use and has been passed between one family and a family friend. The car has spent much time in storage and has suffered deterioration to the point where it now needs restoration and recommissioning work. The work required will include fabrication work to the underside where corrosion has taken hold. The paint is poor in places and there is bubbling in various areas. The engine starts and runs albeit roughly and holds good oil pressure,but at the very least will require a thorough recommission before it can be made reliable and roadworthy. This is an overdrive car although the overdrive does not currently function. Despite the need for work this car does have lots of potential. It is particularly encouraging that the panel gaps are all excellent which is a very good starting point for any restoration and a restored TR6 with superb panel gaps combined with the excellent provenance this car has will make it a very worthwhile investment. The car was issued with a hard top when new which is still with the car. The history file contains the above mentioned invoices along with the driver's handbook and also the passport to service which is actually fully stamped up to the point where it ran out of space! For anyone seeking a TR6 which they can add value to this one ticks the boxes and will be a very worthwhile restoration.

1968 MGB Roadster
This superb 1968 MGB Roadster was subjected to a complete rebuild in the early 90s which included a replacement heritage shell and a full mechanical rebuild. The quality of the work was clearly high as today the car still presents exceptionally well with superb door gaps, excellent paint, a relatively new cloth hood and an interior which is still in excellent condition with just some wear showing on the driver's seat. The underside of the heritage shell has also been well preserved. The steel wire wheels have very recently been refurbished and set off perfectly against the red coachwork. The car starts on the button, runs cleanly and moves through the gears without issue and the overdrive works as it should. The history file contains lots of miscellaneous invoices along with a good number of MOT certificates. There is also a thick wad of invoices and information relating to the rebuild of the car in the 90s. A driver's handbook is also included. More recent work includes two new front brake calipers. The car has an advisory free MOT which expires in December this year. The pictures really demonstrate what a lovely looking car this is and if you are seeking a well sorted MG with a heritage shell that has retained excellent gaps, this one should be on your list to view,

1972 Jaguar E-Type Series 3 Coupe
This series 3 E-Type has had just two keepers over the last 16 years and during that time it has been well maintained and cared for. The car was subjected to a full body restoration in the 90s and around 10 years ago it was repainted to a very good standard whilst the interior has also been refreshed. The end result as the photographs will demonstrate is a car that still presents superbly. In recent years the car has had a good deal of maintenance to maintain its mechanical condition which include a new header tank, refurbishment of the power steering rack, and brakes overhauled. In 2020 the car was completely gone through and the cost of these works came to close to £4,000. Other notable works in recent years include: Bumpers rechromed Polly bushed front suspension High performance starter New distributor Chrome wire wheels Refurbished brake callipers Reconditioned gearbox Powder coated rear axle beam New brake servo and master cylinder All hoses replaced On the road the car quickly gets up to temperature with excellent power delivery and oil pressure; the car moves through the gears without issue. The car was road tested by Classic and Sportscar magazine in October 2018 and a copy of this is in the file. The history file contains a heritage certificate which confirms this is a matching numbers car in its original colour scheme. The history file is quite comprehensive with invoices dating back to the 80s. There is also the car's original Passport to Service booklet which is stamped up along with the Operating, Maintenance and Service book. This is a super example of a Series E-Type which should certainly be on your list of cars to view.

1953 Bentley R Type - Manual
This rather superb Bentley R Type has resided with its last custodian for 8 years. Prior to that it had been owned for 15 years and in fact each keeper appears to have kept the car for a long period of time which accounts for it having had only six keepers in total. What is clear is that each has maintained the upkeep of the car extremely well and that has culminated in the car we offer today which is in exceptional condition. The car has completed relatively few miles in the last 22 years but during that time it has been regularly serviced and any work that has been required has been carried out. Over the last eight years work that has been carried out includes new tyres (Nov 21) along with a new heater fan and matrix and a new clock. The radio was refurbed and repaired in 2020 whilst a LED headlight upgrade, along with new flasher units was carried out in 2019. Other miscellaneous works include an overhaul of the carburettors and a new fuel pump in 2016 whilst new front brake cylinders and shoes were fitted in 2015 along with electronic ignition. The car has been annually serviced apart from during the pandemic and the last full service was carried out in March of this year along with a fresh advisory free MOT. The body work is superb and the only issue of note is some minor blistering on the boot lid which can be easily rectified. The paint finish is excellent and as the photographs will demonstrate the car presents very well indeed. The underside of the car is superb and has been well preserved with no signs of corrosion. The interior has been refurbished in the past and continues to look fresh apart from some minor wear to the driver's seat. The interior wood and headlining is all excellent. The car starts on the button and very quickly settles into a very quiet idle as you would expect of a Bentley. This car has the sought-after manual gearbox car and it moves through the gears without issue. The car is also fitted with a sun roof and the tool drawer underneath the dashboard is almost complete. The history file contains lots of invoices relating to work over the years. There is also a copy of the Bentley delivery/spec sheet from 1953 as well as work notes from Hooper Motor Services who carried out work on the car in 1961. A Bentley R Type handbook is also in the file along with a book which lists all of the chassis and engine numbers confirming that this is a matching numbers car in its original exterior and interior colour scheme. This is a really exceptional example of a Bentley R Type which has clearly been very well cared for during its life and is well suited to comfortable long distance touring. We strongly recommend viewing.

1949 MG TC
This 1949 MG TC has been the subject of a total restoration which took place over a period of around seven years which was completed in 2007. The car was in a barn find state when found and a full and very comprehensive restoration took place taking the car back to its chassis which was blasted and painted and the car was rebuilt from there. Every aspect of the car has either been refurbished or replaced and this includes a new body tub, new wiring loom, renewed braking system, re-chrome of all major parts that needed it, complete refurbishment of all steel panels, refurbished dials, complete refurbishment of the cockpit to a high standard in green leather. The car has been painted in Shires Green to a very high standard indeed and as the photographs will demonstrate it presents very well indeed. The car comes with a substantial history as well and included is a lever arch file documenting in great photographic detail the restoration process. There is a second file crammed with several inches deep of invoices and just a quick scan of the totals suggest upwards of £20k worth of expenditure at prices 20 years ago. The sum today would be considerably more to achieve the standard of finish this car has. The car has had almost no use since its restoration and it presents as well today as it would have done fresh from its restoration. If you are seeking a well sorted MG TC which has had everything done this one is hard to beat.

1958 Jaguar XK 150
This rather lovely 1958 Jaguar XK150 has been with its last custodian for over 10 years now and during that time it has been extremely well cared for with significant expenditure to maintain and improve the car to the very high standard of condition it has today. This has included useful upgrades such as an alternator, electronic ignition, and kenlowe fan. More significant expenditure includes in 2011 a complete engine strip down which included refurbishment of the head with new valve seats and any other work that was deemed necessary. The interior has been treated to new bucket seats whilst the exterior paintwork has also been refreshed in recent years. In total well in excess of £20,000 has been spent on the car in recent times. The car started life in the US and subsequently moved to Ireland in the 90s where it was treated to a total chassis up rebuild which is documented on file with an album of photographs. The car arrived in the UK in 2011 when further significant work and a full schedule of maintenance has taken place since. As you would expect of a car which has been very well cared for, it presents exceptionally well with superb paint and an interior which continues to look fresh. The car starts on the button, runs cleanly and moves through the gears without issue. Everything on the car is working as it should. The file is thick with invoices for expenditure on the car since 2011 and it also includes two albums of photographs detailing the full rebuild that took place in the 90s. There is a heritage certificate on file confirming that this is a matching numbers car. This is undoubtedly a superb example of an XK150 which has been very well maintained and as the photographs will demonstrate the green colour scheme with the chrome wire wheels really suit this car. If you are seeking an XK150 we believe this one represents excellent value for money.

1981 Porsche 911SC Targa - Ex Tom Walkinshaw
This 1981 Porsche 911SC was first owned by the late great Tom Walkinshaw who was the owner of the F1 Arrows team in the late 90s. The car has been with its last custodian for 28 years. It was placed into storage for over a decade from 2004 until 2014 and after emerging from hibernation it was treated to a complete body restoration at a cost of over £11,000. The car's mechanics have been well maintained and this includes a top end overhaul by Oselli Engineering at around the 98,000 mile mark which included the fitment of stronger Dilivar head studs and at the same time a replacement flywheel was fitted. A new clutch was fitted at around 127,000 miles. The car has completed limited mileage in recent years and has clocked up around 18,000 miles over the last 20 years or so. The interior of the car is superb with the leather seats continuing to look fresh having been refurbished around 20 years ago. The rear seats are also in excellent condition as is the dashboard and door cards. The interior condition is as good as any low mileage car. Mechanically the car is in good health showing excellent oil pressure. The engine runs cleanly and the car moves through the gears without issue. The history file contains the service book and the last service was completed in 2020 at 143,600 miles and it has completed 1250 miles since then. The service books shows Tom Walkinshaw as the first owner and there is a complete history of all custodians of the car in the file. There are lots of invoices including those relating to the top end overhaul and the £11,000 body refurbishment which included the replacement of the kidney bowls. There is a lot about this car to like. The body work is generally excellent and with a superb interior the whole car presents exceptionally well and you have the added attraction of long term ownership and a famous motor racing owner. We have priced the car competitively and there is no reason why this car should not give many years of excellent service ahead for its next owner.

1979 Ford Capri MK3 2.0GL - Just 36793 warranted miles
This exceptional MK3 Ford Capri MK3 2.0GL Auto is undoubtedly one of, if not the best you are going to find. The car is in showroom condition and it has the provenance which you rarely find which means it ticks all of the boxes for a collector. The car was in the same ownership from 1979 to 2015 and during that time it clocked up around 34,000 miles. It has clearly always been very well cared for and the condition of the bodyshell is testament to that and remains in amazing condition from the top to the factory original underside. The panels are all original and the paint presents as only a low mileage car would. You are buying something that is closer to a 6 month old car than one that is 43 years old! The interior is just amazing with the cloth still looking new as is the headlining and the dashboard. The engine fires up on command and the auto gearbox runs smoothly with kickdown giving the added power when required. It is the closest you are going to get to driving a nearly new Capri. The history file goes back to the early 80s with service history and MOT certificates which warrant the mileage. There is also the original handbook and assorted invoices across its 43 years. Cars in this condition are becoming very hard to find and this one represents a superb opportunity for someone who is seeking investment potential but also something that you can take to the local shows and win awards with. Act quick as we are sure this one won't hang around. If you want further confirmation of the quality of this car, ClassicsWorld road tested it four years ago which you can read via the link below https://classicsworld.co.uk/cars/road-test-ford-capri-mk3

1967 MGB Roadster
This 1967 MGB Roadster was with its previous custodian for the last 13 years and has been well cared for during that time. The car was rebuilt in 1994 with a new shell and it still presents exceptionally well today. The MOT record says it all with no advisories for many years. The car has completed only 26,000 miles since it was rebuilt. The paint is exceptionally good all round and the car has excellent panel gaps. The engine bay is nicely detailed and the underside looks as good as the top of the car. The engine fires up immediately and runs cleanly. The car pulls very well indeed with a working overdrive. The black leather seats are in very good condition with no rips or tears. The history file includes the driver's handbook along with lots of invoices relating to the restoration of the car in the 90s. Recent work includes new front springs, new petrol pump and water pump. This is an exceptionally nice car with a current MOT and it is ready for a summer of open top motoring!

1991 Porsche 928 S4 - Full service history
This Porsche 928 S4 which was built in 1991 and registered in 1993 has been well cared for during its life as evidenced by its fully stamped up service booklet. The car has been in the same family for the last 8 years and the service history has been kept up and that includes a major service including a cam belt change in 2020 at 87,173 miles.

1972 Jensen Interceptor MK3
This Jensen Interceptor MK3 is undoubtedly one of the best you are going to find. It has clearly been very well preserved during its life and in recent years significant expense has been incurred in a bare metal respray to an exceptionally high standard with near flawless paint whilst the interior has also been totally refurbished and looks as good if not better than when it came out of the showroom. The mileage shows as 46,769 and although we do not have a complete MOT history we have sufficient to suggest the mileage is correct. The car started life as a works demonstrator and we have lots of records on the file including its production record and even body finishing line inspection notes. In fact there are many pages of records relating to the production and early history of the car with Jensen along with a letter and invoice confirming the sale of the car by Jensen as an ex demonstrator in 1973. All of the electrics work including the dual horn switch. The air con is also in working condition. Fitted with the 7,2 litre 440 ci engine, the car fires up on the button and quickly settles into a nice tick over. The engine is smoke free and the car drives as you would expect and pulls exceptionally well and moves through the gears without issue. More recently the car has had a full service and has also been fitted with a new radiator, a new water pump and hoses. The underside of the car is exceptionally clean and tidy. The alloy wheels are all in superb condition.There is not much to dislike about this car with fabulous paint, an as new interior and a low mileage engine. The photographs demonstrate what a fine example this is, but to truly appreciate it, we urge anyone who is interested to come and view, you won't be disappointed.

1980 Chevrolet Corvette C3
This 1980 Chevrolet Corvette C3 arrived in the UK in 1988 and has clearly been well cared for over the last two decades or so. The paintwork is generally in nice condition with the odd blemish and a few micro blisters on the front wings and one of the T Tops.The interior remains in good condition with the seats still in excellent order with no rips or tears.. The C3 is fitted with a 5,7 litre V8 which makes for a very nice sound track and there is little need for a radio in the cockpit when you can hear the rumble of the V8! This car is also fitted with the four speed manual gearbox which moves through the gears without issue and makes for a much more fun driving experience than the auto version. The car also benefits from a removable T top so that you can benefit from the sunshine and the V8 soundtrack. More recent work on the car includes new front brake calipers and pads, new alternator, Edelbrock inlet manifold, Holley Carb, new stereo, new OEM electric aerial, and electric cooling fans. The history file includes almost a full MOT history since the car's arrival in 1988 and one anomaly in the more recent history suggests that the mileage is closer to 88,000 miles than the suggested 101,000 on the clock. The car has a current MOT with no advisories which expires in April 2022. This car is now available for viewing.We are advertising this car on behalf of a local client and we will put interested parties in direct touch with the owner.

1996 Rover Mini Cabriolet
This 1996 Rover Mini Cabriolet is something of a rarity and is one of just 1,081 cars made by Rover in partnership with Tickford and latterly Trim Techniques. This particular car is number 1039 which makes it one of the very last to come off the production line. Approximately 70% of the cabriolets were exported which makes this a rare UK car. This particular example was finished in British Racing Green which really sets the car off well with its 12 inch Revolution alloy wheels. This car has completed a mileage of 87,727 and appears to have been well cared for and has even been the subject of a Cooper World magazine article. The Cabriolet is equipped with the same 1275cc single port fuel injection that the Mini Cooper was issued with meaning the car has plenty of power for wind in your hair motoring. The body work remains in excellent condition albeit with the odd blemish but as the photographs will demonstrate the car presents very well indeed. The interior is still in good order and the Recaro style seats remain in good condition with no rips or tears. The hood has a slight tear in the outer skin on one side but is otherwise generally in good condition. The interior wood veneer is beginning to lift on the edges in places but is still very presentable. The car starts on the button, runs cleanly and moves through the gears without issue. It is very responsive and a fun car especially when the sun shines and the top comes down. More recent mechanical work includes a new clutch, front and rear shock absorbers and fuel pump. The car was last serviced at 86,618 miles. The history file contains various invoices relating to previous work carried out along with a copy of a magazine where the car was featured along with a number of old MOT certificates and other paperwork issued when the car was new. It has 5 previous keepers. The current MOT is advisory free. Given the prices trajectory of early Minis we feel it is only a matter of time before this limited production run of Rover Cabriolets starts to see some serious price appreciation and this car should make for a fun long term classic investment.

1973 Triumph Spitfire Mk IV
This 1973 Triumph Spitfire has come to us from the last owner of some 43 years. He had bought the car in 1978 and by the mid 80s the car was put into storage where it has been ever since covered in a large layer of blankets. The car has just 49,000 miles on the clock and has been remarkably well preserved. There are areas of surface corrosion on the body but nothing of significance apart from the offside rear of the boot lid which will need new metal where a hole has developed. The underside of the car is still in excellent shape with the floor pans and sills all still in good condition. You can see this is an unrestored car because the door gaps are all excellent and sit flush with the wings and the sills. Even the interior is in relatively good shape with just the seats showing the result of years of having heavy items stored upon them. The drives seats base has split at the seam but could be repaired and apart from that there are no rips or tears in the seats. The dashboard as the photographs will show remains in excellent condition. This car has a rare hardtop fitted but it also has the hood frame and an old hood. The Spitfire hub caps also come with the car as does the petrol cap which was sealed when placed in storage. It looks as if it has had a new petrol tank fitted at some point. The original steering wheel is also with the car. There is an old form V5 with the car, but the next custodian will have to apply to the DVLA to register the car as it has been off the road for so long. There are also some old MOT's from the early 80s. Overall this car is incredibly sound and apart from some minor work to the boot lid it needs a paint refresh and complete mechanical restoration after so many years in storage. For someone with the right skill set this will prove to be a very rewarding project.

1964 Triumph TR4 for restoration
This Triumph TR4 has come to us from a deceased estate. It is a UK home market right hand drive car. The car has sat in a garage for the last 40 years and will need a complete restoration. The pictures will give a good idea of the general condition, but the main points to note are that the chassis is in good condition apart from minor surface rust. The body panels are also generally quite good with surface rust and the main panel with an issue is the lower nearside front wing which has an area of deeper corrosion. The panel fits as the photographs will show are actually very good with excellent door gaps on both sides. The underside issues are with the rear of the sills on both sides which will need attention as will some areas of the floor which are also corroded. The car does not currently have front springs fitted which is why it is sitting low, but the springs that were removed are with the car. It has an interesting hard top which will fit the car although the fixings are not present. The soft top hood mechanism also comes with the car along with a worn hood. The nearside front wheel has a hub for a standard steel wheel although we do have the correct hub but not a fourth wire wheel. This is not a matching numbers car, the number showing on the block is TS 14426E. The engine is seized. It has been in the same ownership for many decades and looking at the paperwork we do have it is possible it was owned from new. We do not have a current V5 and the next custodian will have to apply to the DVLA for that. There is a limited amount of paperwork on file, but it does include a copy of an old registration document plus some very old invoices dating back to the 70s.. Overall despite its long period off the road, the car has been relatively well preserved and for someone with the right skill set, this car provides a good foundation for a full restoration. It is priced accordingly and leaves plenty of room to invest in its restoration.

1946 MG TC - Ex Lancashire Constabulary
This 1946 MG TC has a superb history having first been assigned to the Chief Inspector of the Lancashire Police Constabulary. It has even featured in a book on the subject of MG police cars titled MG's on Patrol by Andrea Geen. We also have on file a letter from Lancashire Constabulary with an extract from their records confirming that this car was part of their fleet. What better provenance can you ask for! The car itself has just emerged from a total restoration and as the photographs will demonstrate it is is superb condition. There is a long list of works that have been carried out including : Chassis blasted, primed and painted New road springs front and rear Complete renewal of the brake system New stainless steel exhaust Metal panels sandblasted, primed and painted Rechrome of all parts in need of refurbishment New wiring loom Complete interior re-trim at a cost of nearly £3,000 New hood and side screens New tyres and tubes All instruments professionally rebuilt Engine re-built which includes a re-bore with new sleeves, crankshaft reground and new bearings and the cylinder head was overhauled. Steering box overhauled with new track rod ends The car presents exceptionally well and the cockpit is particularly pleasing with its fresh red leather and stained and lacquered dashboard which really go well together. The car has a new hood and all new wet weather gear including a full complement of sidescreens. The engine fires on the button and quickly settles into a nice idle and the car goes through the gears without issue. The original colour scheme just adds to the character of the car and we think this is one of the best colour combinations with the red leather. Within the history file, apart from the documentation relating to the police there is also a plethora of invoices relating to the recent restoration. If you are seeking a TC, this one will give you plenty to talk about at your local show and being fresh from restoration it is ready for its next custodian and the return of better weather in the spring!

1994 MGR V8
This 1994 MGR V8 arrived in the UK in 2004 as a Japanese import. The car has had a total of 5 keepers during that time and the last of which owned the car since 2014. The file documents the history of the car since 2004 and looking at recent years it has clearly been well cared for with regular servicing and maintenance whenever it has needed it. Most importantly it benefits from power steering which was fitted in 2013. In recent years the car has had a new radiator fitted along with brake servo, brake master cylinder plus a new hood has been fitted and the interior wood has been re-veneered and lacquered. The car is still relatively low mileage with a complete MOT history since 2004 and the latest one expires in October 2022 and was issued advisory free. The last service was undertaken in September 2020. The negatives are a few paint blemishes around the car but other than that the car generally presents well. The interior is generally quite presentable with the driver's door card showing some wear as is the right hand side of the centre console. The leather seats are just showing their age but are generally in good condition with no rips or tears. The wood is excellent having only recently been refurbished and the same may be said of the hood which is also relatively new.There is also a nearly new hood bag and tonneau cover The underside of the car is in good condition and the engine is not showing any leaks. The car starts on the button and the engine runs cleanly and moves through the gears without issue. The history file contains a good record of invoices since the car arrived in the UK. There is also a plethora of technical books and sheets. We have priced the car at £13,995 to reflect the fact that there are some minor cosmetic issues leaving plenty of room to invest in the car and add value. With MGR V8 values now comfortably exceeding £20k for the very best cars, we believe this one represents excellent value for money.

1980 Porsche 911 SC 69,478 warranted miles - FULL SERVICE HISTORY
A quick glance of the Porsche 911 classifieds will reveal a number of 911 SC cars available, but rarely do they tick all of the boxes as this car does. It is low mileage with just 69,478 miles which is warranted as it also has a complete service history with two stamped up service books. This is a rare car in that it has been exceptionally well looked after all of its life which reflects in near perfect bodywork and a superb interior which does not show any significant wear. This really is an exceptionally nice car which in our view does tick all of the boxes if you are seeking an investment grade car that can also be used. Prior to sale we have gone through the car and ensured everything works and that includes the headlamp washers! The latest MOT is advisory free and expires in Oct 2022. Mechanically the car is on the button and runs beautifully and goes through the gears without issue. A prior custodian had the car checked and decided to have all of the head studs replaced with a modern equivalent so that the one issue which can plague these cars has been rectified. At the same time it seemed sensible to treat the engine to a full top end rebuild and the clutch was replaced at the same time when the engine was out. The total cost of this was over £6k and this was done at 68,306 miles in 2015. The service history is as good as it gets and we have listed below all of the major service history stamps in the service book: 19 March 1984 - 15,597 miles 16 Jan 1986 - 20,732 miles 23rd Nov 1990 - 35,600 miles 31st Aug 1992 - 47,501 miles 16th Sep 1994 - 52,460 miles 2nd May 1995 - 53,308 miles 11th Jan 1997 - 54,925 miles 18th Sep 1998 - 56,683 miles 18th April 2002 - 58,115 miles 5th May 2004 - 61,440 miles 14th June 2006 - 63,186 miles 8th November 2007 - 63,969 miles 12th Dec - 2011 - 66,007 miles 21st Oct 2014 - 67,548 miles 3rd Feb 2018 - 68,306 miles 17th Feb 2020 - 69,149 miles Oct 2021 - oil and filter change. - 69,460 miles There is a Certificate of Authenticity on file and this lists the original color as Guards Red with a black leather interior and optional equipment of impact absorbers, electric mirror on the passenger side, headlamp washers, sports seats, rear wiper, electric antenna, and speakers in doors. The bodywork is near mint with the odd paint chip on the driver's door edge and a chip on the bumper. Otherwise the paint finish is exceptionally good with a flat finish and mark free. There is a similar story for the interior with all of the leather seats in good condition including the driver's seat. At the ends of the dashboard at some point an alarm system had be installed and the dash has had very tiny repairs at both ends to make good after the alarm system was taken out. The targa top is like new with good seals. The tyres were replaced in 2015 and all have good tread and are in good condition. The underside of the car is excellent and the engine is drip free. There is not much to dislike about this 911 as it really does tick the boxes and we feel we have priced it competitively compared to what else is available for such a low mileage and well preserved SC.

1967 Mini Moke, 7,154 miles from new
This Mini Moke has an interesting story to tell. It was originally purchased new by the solicitor, property developer and bloodstock breeder Sir Gerald Glover. The car was kept at his home where he bred racehorses and was used only to move around his land and there it stayed for several decades. Along with breeding racehorses, Sir Gerald Glover was also a London property developer and he owned the land upon which the factory for the famous Hooper & Co coachbuilder to Rolls Royce was built. This association led to him asking Hooper to add the additional coachwork that is present on this Moke today along with the various elements of sign writing which includes his racing colours. Hooper also adorned the car with various trademark badges to show it was their work. The car languished on his farm and eventually fell into disrepair and after the death of Sir Gerald it passed to his wife. It was following her death that a family member set about having the car restored in 2011 at a cost of a little over £8,000. This involved a complete strip down with the body blasted and repaired where necessary and then treated to a fresh cost of paint. Various other aspects of the car were refurbished but being a low mileage car there was no need for an engine rebuild. Moving on to today, the last owner was Gina Glover who passed the car to the current family custodian. This Moke starts on the button and runs as you would expect of a low mileage car. Sadly we do not have any paperwork in the file relating to the work by Hoopers or indeed sufficient MOT certificates to warrant the mileage (this is predominantly because the car was not used on the road), but the car is owned by a relative of Sir Gerald Glover and the story backs up everything we have written here. There are invoices and details on file of the substantial restoration which was undertaken along with photographs of the car prior to and after its restoration. The car was also treated to a new hood and a full set of sidescreens. We have recently gone through the car to ensure it is ready for its next custodian and this has included fitting a new starter motor and windscreen wiper motor. The current MOT is advisory free and expires in Nov 2022. This might not be a Moke for the purist given the additional coachwork, but if you want one that is unique with a fantastic story to tell, this one is hard to beat!

1961 MGA Coupe
This 1961 MGA Coupe has had just three custodians over the last 42 years and has clearly been well cared for. This is an original home market right hand drive car which remains in its original colour scheme. The major upgrade was in 1974 when the car was fitted with a later 1622 engine. It was subjected to a full body restoration between 2012 and 2015 which included a bare metal respray in the car's original colour. The interior was partly retrimmed which included the dashboard, door cards and carpets. At the same time a new wiring harness and electronic ignition was fitted. In 2016 further work was undertaken which included a front suspension overhaul with new arms and bushes. The brakes were attended to with a new master cylinder, rear brake cylinders and shoes. More recently the heater has been overhauled with a new matrix and controls; halogen headlight units have been fitted and the wiper motor has been rebuilt. The cylinder head was also removed and checked and the valves were re-ground. As the photographs will demonstrate the car presents exceptionally well and the paint continues to look very good. The interior is in good order with the original seats showing their age, but with no rips or tears. The engine fires up on the button and runs cleanly and sounds very sweet indeed. The car drives exceptionally well and runs through the gears without issue. The last MOT was issued in October 2021 and was free of advisories. The history file includes photographs of the 2012 to 2015 restoration when the car was stripped back to bare metal. There are invoices dating back over the last 20 years and all of the work that has been done during that period has been well documented. There is also a green continuation logbook. Overall this is a well maintained car that needs for nothing and is ready for its next custodian. If you are seeking a Coupe we would urge you to come and take a look at this car, it is excellent value.

1939 MG VA Tickford
This rare and superb MG VA Tickford has just emerged from a one year total restoration. Prior to this the car has been in the same family ownership for decades, but it was in need of total restoration. The newly rebuilt car is now a superb example of the rare Tickford bodied MG VA. The restoration has been very thorough and every aspect of the car has either been refurbished or replaced. The list of works is extensive and the main aspects of the restoration are listed below: All body panels have been blasted, primed and painted in the original blue. The engine has been totally rebuilt and this includes a re-bore, new pistons, new valves and guides, new big ends and main bearings which have been white metaled. The braking system has been overhauled with all new seals. A new wiring loom has been fitted All of the chrome has been re-plated apart from the fog lamp which remains in good condition. The radiator has been re-cored The petrol tank has been blasted inside and out and re-painted. The road wheels have been blasted and painted. The gearbox has been checked and a new front seal fitted and a new clutch drive plate has been fitted. The starter motor has been overhauled A dynamator has been fitted which is effectively an alternator dressed up as a period dynamo. New coil, fuel pump, spark plugs, leads and caps have been fitted. The distributor has been overhauled by the Distributor Doctor which is the best place to go to for any such work. A brand new exhaust system has been fitted. New front side lamps have been fitted along with flashing indicators. The wooden dash panel has been re-made. Various new instrument drive cables and control cables have been fitted. A new hood has been fitted - this alone cost just under £2,000. All of the interior trim has been refurbished using beige leather with new blue carpets. New tyres have been fitted. The list goes on but as you will see this is a very comprehensive restoration and the pictures demonstrate what a lovely car this is. It starts on the button and runs through the gears without issue. It is a car that has real presence on the road and generates lots of interest wherever you take it. The history file includes the original buff log book which confirms that the car still sports its original registration number. The history file includes lots of invoices relating to the rebuild. These cars rarely come to market and even rare are the ones that have been the subject of such a comprehensive rebuild given the costs involved. This one is now ready for its next custodian and it will give many years of motoring pleasure ahead.

1954 MG TF 1250
This lovely MG TF 1250 comes with excellent provenance having had only four custodians, two of whom are from the same family. The car started life as a 17th birthday present to the first owner who retained the car from 1954 to 2009. It was then kept by the second owner for 2 years before being sold to the family of the current custodian. The mileage shows as 54,000 which is believed genuine and the fact that the original seats have survived largely in tact demonstrates this along with the known provenance of the car which we have on file. Around 2010/11 the car was subjected to a complete body refurbishment to a high standard which involved taking the car back to the chassis and fitting it with a new body tub, restoring and replacing panels where necessary and finishing it off with a high standard of paint finish. The restoration also importantly included a new wiring loom and anything that needed to be refurbished was done so. In recent months the temperature gauge capillary tube has been replaced and everything on the car works as it should. We have lots of photographs on file showing the extensive restoration which was carried out. The paint even now still looks fresh and the chrome also remains in good order. The car still has its original wet weather gear which remains in good condition.The original seats are showing their age, but remain in quite good order and we feel should not be restored as it really adds to the character of the car. The engine has not been restored and is low mileage for a car of this age. The engine runs well with no issues, it does not smoke and pulls well through the gears. Overall, this is a very nicely restored example of a TF 1250 which has been well maintained and should deliver many years of trouble free motoring if looked after. It has great provenance with a low number of owners.

1975 MGB GT V8
This factory produced 1975 MGB GT V8 has been with its last custodian since 1995 and for all but two of those years the car was carefully stored off the road. It has therefore complete little mileage over the last 26 years which accounts for the relatively low and warranted mileage of 85,938 miles. The condition of the car is superb and it has been clearly well preserved. The underside is original and in great condition with no signs of any repairs. The brakes lines, brakes and cylinders have all been refurbished in recent years. The body of the car is also in superb order with the odd blemish, but overall very nice indeed as the photographs will demonstrate. The shut lines are also very good and representative of a car that has been looked after. The interior is now leather and with little use in recent years it is in superb condition and suits the car well. The dashboard and instruments are also in very good condition. We have recently recommissioned the car which has included tuning the carbs and fitting new rear shock absorbers. The car has a current MOT which is advisory free. The engine starts on the button and runs cleanly. The car runs through the gears without issue and it has a working overdrive. The history file goes back to the late 80s and includes every MOT certificate from 1980 which warrants the current mileage at just under 86,000 miles. There are lots of miscellaneous invoices on file covering the life of the car along with a workshop manual. This is a particularly nice example of the later MGB GT V8 cars.

1964 Triumph Vitesse 6
This 1964 Triumph Vitesse 6 is a truly lovely example of one of these cars with fantastic provenance. The car is an exceptional unrestored original example and it shows in the panel gaps which are superb. Apart from the odd minor blemish the paint is excellent and the panels are all straight. It is a similar story for the underneath which is also in superb condition having been heavily waxoyled and well preserved. There are no repairs and the floor pans are as they should be. The interior is also excellent with new carpets having been fitted recently. The car was fitted with a reconditioned gearbox in 2013 and a new clutch. The head was converted for unleaded fuel in 2014. Turning to the provenance, the first owner of the car has kept a log of every fuel fill up and work that was done from 1964 up until 1999 when he sold the car with a mileage of 83,200. He even lists when the car was taken on holiday and towed his caravan in 1971! All services are listed and any work done over the years has been fully documented. It is a fantastic history. The history file also includes the owners handbook, The car starts on the button and drives extremely well. It has just had a fresh MOT with no advisories. If you are seeking an unmolested and straight Vitesse this one is for you. We would keep it if we had the space!

1966 Reliant Scimitar Coupe SE4
This is undoubtedly one of the best examples of an early Reliant Coupe that we have come across. Fitted with the 2.5 litre straight six triple carb engine; this car has been the subject of a full restoration over several years using specialists to produce a very fine example. The car was completely stripped with the body taken off the chassis. The chassis was then subjected to a full overhaul during which the rear suspension mounts were upgraded to the the later type SE4a V6 coupe style trailing arm and watts linkage and the front wishbone mounts were also modified to the later type. Most importantly the chassis was fully galvanized which should provide significant protection against corrosion. The next stage was a complete body refurbishment undertaken and the car was painted to a very high standard by a fiberglass specialist. The 2.5 litre straight six engine car was then treated to a full rebuild by an engine specialist and the carburettors were also rebuilt at the same time. The car was then put back together using a new wiring loom and an alternator upgrade. The interior trim was refitted and a new head lining was installed. The car benefits from a complete stainless steel exhaust system and has correct 72 spoke stainless steel wheels which really set off well against the grey coachwork. The clutch was replaced during the rebuild along with all brake lines. There are useful upgrades such as an alternator, hazard warning lights, electronic ignition, and an improved start motor. The pictures really say it all with this car, if you are seeking a Scimitar Coupe this one is hard to beat given the effort and investment that has been made to bring it up to the standard it is in today. The restoration was completed in 2010 but since then the car has completed less than 3,000 miles. The history file includes the owner's handbook along with a comprehensive written history of the restoration and various invoices. There are also photographs of the restoration with the car and engine stripped down. The car starts on the button and drives extremely well. It moves through the gears without issue and pulls well. There is not much to dislike about this Scimitar with a fabulous colour set against the wire wheels, it really looks superb and gets plenty of attention when out. We strongly recommend viewng this car as they don't offer come to market in such great condition and we expect plenty of interest in this one.

1964 MGB Roadster - Pull Handle
This 1964 MGB Roadster Pull Handle was fully rebuilt in 2007 which included a full mechanical and body refurbishment. The car has completed less than 3,000 miles since then and still looks restoration fresh as the pictures demonstrate. The car has been fitted with leather magnolia seats and trim with walnut cappings on the dashboard and doors. The carpets continue to look like new and a Mota Lita steering wheel really sets the cabin off. More recently a new Mohair hood has been fitted.The chrome wire wheels are still like new.The paint is exceptional and the car presents like new. Mechanically the car starts on the button and runs and pulls well. It is fitted with electronic ignition along with an oil cooler and Kenlow fan. The engine bay is very nicely detailed. The gearbox was reconditioned in 2017 and a new clutch fitted at the same time. The history file shows that the car has had only 6 previous keepers one of whom owned the car for over 20 years. The clock shows just over 35,000 miles. The file includes numerous MOT certificates along with many invoices. The car was last serviced in 2020. This is an immaculate example which has clearly been very well cared for since its restoration. You will struggle to find a better example at this price point.

1965 MGB Roadster £38,000 restoration less than 1,000 miles ago.
This 1965 MGB Roadster is undoubtedly one of the best if not the best car on the market at this time and at a competitive price. It was subject to a £38,000 restoration by Lenham Sports Cars in 2016/2017 and has completed less than 1,000 miles since then. In addition it is a car that still retains its original albeit fully rebuilt engine and the car retains its original colour of Iris Blue. The car was originally supplied by Caffyns in Tonbridge and the car is therefore still close to where it was originally supplied. When you spend £38,000 on restoring an MGB the finished product is generally better than new and this car certainly fits the bill. The underside of the car is painted and is as good as the top. The panel fits are all excellent and the overall paint finish is to a high standard. The engine bay is like new as is the interior and with less than 1,000 miles since the restoration the car presents exceptionally well. Everything on the car has either been refurbished or replaced and the invoices on file detail the restoration along with a disc of photographs. The engine has been rebuilt along with the gearbox and all aspects such as the brakes, fuel lines, petrol tank etc have been renewed. The list is too long for here, but suffice to say you are getting as close to a new MGB as you can get for half the cost. The car is fitted with a high torque starter motor and fires up almost instantly. The engine is clearly very well set up as it is extremely responsive and actually drives a lot better than a 26,000 mile car which we also have in stock. The cabin area has all been renewed as you will see from the photographs and the car is a joy to drive. The history file includes a heritage certificate which confirms the numbers and that this is a matching numbers car in its original colour. The file actually goes back to the 80s and details a previous engine rebuild along with other miscellaneous works carried out over the years. The car was last serviced in March of this year and it has been regularly serviced since the rebuild took place. Overall, this is a superb MGB and we believe it represents fabulous value given the recent expense and the fact that you are effectively getting a new car for half the price. Act quick as we do not expect this one to hang around.

1971 Jaguar E-Type Series 2 4.2
This superb Jaguar E-Type 4.2 Coupe is an original home market right hand drive car that has clearly led a cosseted life as demonstrated by an extensive history file detailing work that has been done over the years to keep it in largely original condition but superb mechanical order. The car has been with its last custodian for over 10 years and during this time it has had any work needed done which has been thoroughly documented with extensive notes on all parts and labour that have been needed. Prior to this the history file contains lots of invoices for work done and even has a second hand car sales invoice dated 1976 when the car was sold from a dealer in Streatham high road. This is a matching numbers car which has a very rare factory option of power steering fitted which was only done to the last of the 4.2 cars coming off the production line. The original power steering has been replaced with a more robust modern electric unit, but all of the parts from the original unit have been retained should the next custodian wish to return the car to its factory spec. The car also has a factory fitted webasto sunroof which gives the perfect solution for hopefully the summer ahead. The body is in excellent condition with just minor paintwork blemishes. The underside is also in excellent condition. Mechanically the car has had money spent whenever it has needed it and a good example is in 2018 when the engine was removed from the car to address any oil leaks and fit new seals and gaskets where needed. The car is now dry underneath with no leaks. At the same time other work was carried out such as resurfacing the flywheel and fitting new ring gear and refurbishing the clutch assembly. The total cost for all of this work was just under £10,000. Regular servicing has been undertaken which is all documented on file. There is a thick folder detailing the work carried out over the years. The car starts on the button and sounds great. it moves through the gears without issue and runs cleanly. It is nicely set up and drives very well indeed which reflects the care it has received in recent years. The interior is in good condition with the driver's seat showing some wear but there are no rips or tears. The black leather and white coachwork with chrome wire wheels really set the car off perfectly. The history file contains all of the invoices we have mentioned above along with a good MOT history back to the late 1980s along with a operating, maintenance and service book and a workshop manual. If you are seeking a Series 2 E-Type which is extremely well sorted at a good price, this car should be on your list to view. Act quick as we don't expect it to hang around at this price!

1968 Morris Minor Traveller
This 1968 Morris Minor Traveller was in the same ownership from new until 2016 when it was taken out of storage and treated to a significant restoration which cost a little under £20,0000 and this number does not include any labour costs. Just about every aspect of the car has been refurbished or renewed. The list of works is too long to quote here, but some of the major items include all new timber, new front and rear wings, new brakes, engine rebuild, new front seats, carpets, full chassis legs, cross member, sills, fuel tank, stainless steel exhaust, floor pans, new door cards, starter motor etc. The list goes on and most importantly it is fully documented in the history file with all invoices along with a full spreadheet summary. The vast majority of the parts used were sourced from the Charles Ware Morris Minor Centre. It is now 5 years since the rebuild took place and the car presents very well as the photographs will demonstrate. It starts on the button and runs cleanly. The car has recently been issued with an advisory free MOT. With Traveller prices on the rise at the moment we feel this car is very keenly priced given the level of expenditure that has gone into bringing this car back to life.

1947 MG TC
This lovely 1947 MG TC has been the subject of a significant restoration over several years which has only been completed within the last few months. The car was rebuilt from the chassis up which shows in the condition today with a super underneath and a body which is fresh from a full respray. All elements of the car have been attended to with a new body tub and panels including the doors. The brakes have all been renewed. The chassis was shot blasted and painted. The car has had new king pins, road spring bushes, new wiring loom, new hood, all of the chrome work has been re-chromed.

All new side screens. As you will see from the photographs the car looks superb. The history file contains lots of miscellaneous invoices relating to the rebuild along with a TC instruction manual and a full list of everything that has been done during the rebuild process. A perfect TC for the summer ahead.

1962 Jaguar MK 2 3.8 manual with overdrive
This Jaguar MK2 3.8 manual with overdrive has come to us from a deceased estate. The car belonged to a South African gentleman who moved to the UK four years ago and brought the car with him having bought it many years ago. In more recent times he had started to strip the car with the intention of restoring it, but ill health prevented that. The car has been stripped of various bits of external and internal trim all of which we have, but that is as far as the restoration progressed. The car is in need of full restoration. The engine does not turn and there are areas of rust on the bodywork.The underside of the car is showing rust and some areas will need attention The next custodian will have to arrange UK registration which should be straightforward. We have all of the import documentation on file and there were no duties as the car was brought here under a transfer of residency arrangement. Given what values of good examples now command this is an excellent opportunity for someone with the right skill set to add value to this car. WE CAN ARRANGE DELIVERY TO ANY ADDRESS IN THE UK.

1975 MGB GT - 54,675 miles
This MGB GT has been in the same family ownership since new, passing from father to son in 1997. The car has completed very little mileage in recent decades and has been in storage for the last 10 years until its recent recommissioning. The total mileage showing is believed correct at 54,675 miles although we do not have sufficient MOT history to warrant this. What we do know is that the car received an Ivor Searle reconditioned engine in 1999 and this engine has completed only 856 miles which makes this a very low mileage car. In 2006 the car was also subject to a total body restoration which included new panels where required including two new front wings and a complete respray. The interior was also re-trimmed during the restoration and as the photographs will show the interior is superb, showing little wear and looking very fresh. The total cost of this restoration was £6,471.74. The recent recommissioning process has included a new battery, new fuel pump, new clutch slave cylinder and a new alternator. A fresh MOT has been issued which is advisory free. The car continues to present very well with the odd paint blemish, but otherwise in very good order. The underside is clean and in good condition. With the prices of good chrome bumper cars now comfortably exceeding £10,000 it is inevitable that the rubber bumper prices are going to follow higher and this car in our view is excellent value for money given its low ownership and superb condition.

Ford Escort MK2 1.3 Ghia
We have been asked to sell this Ford Escort MK2 Ghia on behalf of a local client. He has owned the car since 1984 and is the third keeper. The car has completed an amazing 274,888 miles since new and is still on its original engine which even today sounds in good order. The mechanics of the car have clearly been well maintained throughout its life. The major issue is corrosion and as the photographs will show the car has significant corrosion in all of the areas where there cars go. The corrosion has been covered with filler and the body is in need of a total restoration. We have taken photographs of the areas around the car which need attention and as you will see it is extensive with a similar story underneath. The car does run and drive and even has a current MOT which amazingly has no advisories! The interior of the car has been quite well protected during its 270k plus miles with only the rear seat showing damage from the sun. The dashboard is showing some fading but is generally in good condition as are the doors cards apart from some cracking in the driver's interior door handle. The headlining is also in good condition. This is a car that deserves to be rescued and the current custodian has clearly made a huge effort throughout the car's life to keep it on the road and preserve it as much as possible. The elements have sadly taken their toll on the bodywork and we therefore consider the car to be in need of a full body restoration to maintain its road worthiness and structural integrity. The history file contains every MOT certificate from 1984 onwards along with an original service book which was stamped up in the early years of the car's life. If you are seeking a project this is certainly a worthwhile one and for someone with the right skill set there is plenty of opportunity to add value to this car given where Escort MK2 values now stand. We are seeking offers on this car.

1964 Jaguar MK 2 3.8
This 1964 Jaguar MK 2 3.8 has come to us from a deceased estate. The car has been in the same family for decades, but has been in a barn for a long time. It will need a total restoration. The body is actually in good shape and is showing lots of surface rust but nothing significant. The underside of the car is showing rust and some areas will need attention, but again the chassis is sound and generally speaking the underside is in relatively good shape. The car is complete and the engine can be turned by hand although we have not tried to start it. For someone with the right skill set this car presents a good opportunity to restore the car back to its former glory and add value to what is the most sought after variant of the MK2 cars, the 3.8 manual with overdrive.

1970 Morris Minor Pickup
This exceptional 1970 Morris Minor Pickup is the result of a total restoration carried out between 1999 and 2002 by Classic Car Service based in Maidstone. The restoration was completed to a very high standard with every aspect of mechanical and body restoration dealt with resulting in a Pick-Up which is like new and undoubtedly one of the best you are going to find in the UK. The restoration cost over £13,000 in 1999 an amount which would be significantly higher in today's world.The restoration is fully documented by invoices and importantly a photographic record. If you want a potential show winning Pick Up for next season you will struggle to find a better one. The Pick Up was only driven once after the restoration was completed and that was to the MOT centre after which it was placed into heated storage and has been preserved perfectly for its awakening in recent weeks. We have carried out a comprehensive recommissioning process including cleaning the fuel lines, fitting five new tyres and a full service. This Morris starts on the button and really feels tight and drives like something fresh from the showroom. The paint finish is exceptionally good and the interior is all new as the photographs will demonstrate. The engine bay is also like new. The tilt is in superb order and the loading bay also looks restoration fresh. The underside is all painted and again restoration fresh. We have taken far more photographs than we would normally do just to give you a flavour of how good this Morris is. In the file you will find lots on old invoices mainly relating to the total restoration. There is also an old style V5 along with lots of photographs of the restoration and a Morris Operation Manual. When you see this Pick Up you will want to own it, it really is a lovely thing that would be hard to replicate now without it costing tens of thousands. We strongly recommend viewing to fully appreciate how nice this Morris is.

1970 Jaguar E-Type Series 2 Roadster
This rather lovely Jaguar E-Type Series 2 4.2 has been in the ownership of the same custodian for the last 30 years and only comes to market now following his death. The car has been very well looked after and comes with a history file complete with a large number of invoices detailing work carried out over the last 30 years. This includes a full engine rebuild in 2013 by CKL Developments at a cost of £8,576,00. The car has always received attention whenever it has needed it and comes to market as a well maintained car that has been set up very well indeed making it a great driving car. The car started life in the US in September 1970 and was imported into the UK in 1991. It has changed colour to silver with a grey leather interior and has been converted to right hand drive. It has clearly been the subject of restoration work which has been done to a very good standard and as the photographs will demonstrate it presents very well indeed with chrome wire wheels which look like new. Since the engine rebuild the car has completed less than 800 miles. The paintwork still presents very well although there are a few minor blemishes. The interior which has been refurbished in the past still looks fresh with just minor wear to piping on the driver's seat. The dashboard is in excellent condition as is the hood. The bumpers have been re-chromed in the past as has other trim. The colour scheme is certainly one of the most attractive for an E-type in our view. Mechanically the car is in superb order as you would expect of a car that has been well maintained and been subject to an engine rebuild less than 1,000 miles ago. It has in recent years been upgraded to a triple Weber carburettor set-up which really makes a difference to how responsive these cars are. When set up correctly as this car is you really feel the difference in the driving experience.The car has been frequently serviced and it has an MOT which expires in March 2022. The history file contains many invoices along with a current as well as the old style V5s. There is also an operating, maintenance and service book and lubrication chart. If you are seeking a well sorted, well cared for and affordable series 2 E-Type this one really ticks the boxes. We will be open for viewings from the 12th April and in the meantime we can supply additional photographs or videos and help you to arrange an independent inspection if required.

1982 Porsche 911 SC
This 1982 Porsche 911SC has been with the same keeper since 1988. It was originally bought by his company as a company car but in recent years it has been transferred into his own name. During more than 30 years of ownership the car has been well looked after with regular servicing and work when needed which is all documented on file. In 2001 the car was in a minor accident receiving a side impact which at the time was deemed by the insurance company as being uneconomic to fix and consequently was listed as a CAT D insurance claim. The owner thought otherwise and bought the car back and had the work done. Having been in such long term ownership, the work needed and what happened is known and documented which includes the quote for the work from Lancaster Porsche. This does not detract from the fact that this car has been well preserved and looked after over the last thirty years or so. The photographs really demonstrate what a lovely car this is and with a history file going back to the late 90s, there is good provenance as well. The car is equipped with an electric sunroof, air conditioning, electric windows, cookie cutter wheels and importantly remains in its original colour of Ruby Red Metallic. The front seats have been recovered in recent years in the original Pasha material which means the interior also presents very well indeed. The exterior paint is largely in excellent condition, there are a few blemishes here or there, but nothing significant. It is a very pretty car. The history file contains the original service book which is stamped up to 90,072 miles and subsequent to that there are service invoices on file. The starts on the button and pulls well through the gears. The current MOT which is advisory free expires in August of this year. If you are after a Posrche 911 SC, grab this one whilst you can. You will struggle to find a better value car at this price, £29,950.

The car has been stripped of various bits of external trim all of which we have, but that is as far as the restoration progressed. The car is generally quite sound but will require a complete restoration. The body has rust in places and the offside front wing has a dent in it. The engine turns but we have not attempted to start it. The interior will require full refurbishment. The positive is that the body is largely quite sound and that is half the battle with a car such as this. We have been told by the executor that the car has been running in recent years. The next custodian will have to arrange UK registration which should be straightforward.

1969 Morris 1800 S
This Morris 1800S is Landcrab heaven! The car was subjected to an extensive and most thorough restoration over a two year period to create a car that is effectively like new. The restoration has left nothing untouched and the end result is a car that has won awards and will continue to do so for its next custodian. The restoration included having the underside zinc coated prior to painting and the paint finish that has been achieved on the car is to a very high standard indeed. The interior has been refurbished where necessary and all mechanical components have been refurbished or replaced, many of which were new old stock. The photographs of the car really demonstrate just how good this car looks and it does not end there! It also drives as good as it looks with a smooth gear change combined with plenty of power from the 1800 twin carb engine and of course a very smooth ride with the suspension set up these cars come with. One useful upgrade on the car is the fitment of a dynamator. The car has an advisory free MOT as you would anticipate for a car of this standard. The car is currently fitted with genuine Minilite wheels, but also comes with a full set of standard wheels with trim that have been refurbished. There is also a spare windscreen. The history file contains lots of invoices and photographs of the restoration along with MOT certificates and a plethora of cups and awards that the car has won. There are also two videos of films which the car has starred in. The cost of restoring a car to the standard of this car would go into the 10s of thousands which makes our asking price a snip for a car that will provide many years of superb motoring combined with lots of opportunities to attend shows and win awards! You will be hard pressed to find a better example of what is a very rare variant of the AD017 model especially in the "S" form. Values of these cars are just starting to play catch up and we think they have lots of potential. We may well have missed the 2020 show season, but this car is the perfect way to be ready for 2021!

1955 MG TF 1500
This 1955 MG TF 1500 has resided with the same family since 1962. The car was placed into storage at some point in the 60s and has been there ever since until this year when it was subjected to a full process of recommissioning. The car has been very well preserved indeed over the decades and as a result was only in need of recommissioning process which involved stripping and cleaning the engine which was found to be in excellent condition and then a process of repainting various body panels along with other general recommissioning. Other work carried out includes a complete re-wire, removal of the gearbox and the mounts and the front oil seal were replaced.The chassis was cleaned and treated with waxoyl. The brake shoes were replaced the entire braking system checked with fluids replaced. All brightwork was re-chromed or renewed. A new stainless steel exhaust system has been fitted. The wheels were blasted and repainted and new tyres have been fitted. The end result as you will see in the photographs is a superb looking example of what is a relatively rare car. The history file includes the original buff log book which confirms that this car has had only six keepers during its life, the last of which bought the car in May 1962. The buff log bog also confirms this to be a home market right hand drive car. The paint on the car is excellent having been the subject of a full respray and the interior is largely unmarked although the dashboard is showing its age with some light surface rust in places. The hood is also in excellent condition. The car also has a full complement of wet weather gear. The car starts on the button and runs cleanly and pulls through the gears without issue. The TF 1500 is undoubtedly the car to have given its rarity and greater power output. This particular example presents extremely well and has a full ownership history and is now ready for its next custodian.

This 1973 Triumph GT6 is an older restoration that has completed only a few thousand miles since its restoration and consequently remains in superb condition with a very nice paint finish and an interior that is very clean with an excellent dashboard and unmarked seats. The car is also relatively low mileage with 62,920 miles showing on the clock which we can verify with MOT certificates going back to 1981. In fact the history file goes back even further than that with invoices dated 1977. The main restoration of the car took place in 1998/99 when it was treated to a full body refurbishment including a bare metal respray which is fully documented in invoices and a large number of photographs. The mileage at that time was 57,124 which compares with today's mileage of just 62,920 miles. The paint on the car continues to look very sharp and is blemish free, it really does look superb as the photographs will demonstrate. The car is fitted with a webasto sunroof which is perfect for hot summer days. The car starts on the button and sounds great. It pulls through the gears without issue and runs cleanly as you would expect of a relatively low mileage car. A useful upgrade the car has is electronic ignition.The car also benefits from a retro style radio with aux socket, USB socket, SD card reader and blue tooth. The history file is excellent with a large number of MOT certificates which warrant the mileage along with lots of invoices showing general maintenance over the years which starts from 1977. There is also a GT6 handbook and there is a certificate from British Motor Industry Heritage Trust confirming that this is a matching numbers car. This really is a well sorted GT6 that has clearly been well cared for over the years. It has excellent provenance and comes with an advisory free MOT which expires around this time next year.

1961 Jaguar MK2 2.4 - 36,363 MILES FROM NEW!
Finding low mileage MK2 Jaguars brings to mind the phrase 'as rare as hen's teeth', but this MK2 is exactly that having completed just 36,363 miles. We can warrant it using a mixture of MOT certificates and the fact that the current owner who has been the car's custodian since 1978 knows all of the previous owners who are either family members or family friends. A family tree showing the ownership path is available in the file. The car was first bought new by a Doris Burrows who lived in Westcliff-On-Sea and she used the car very sparingly with her chauffeur tasked with taking it out each month to give it some regular use! The current custodian inherited the car from his father in 1978 and the car has had limited use since then although it has always been well maintained and kept fit for road use. The car is largely very original indeed with an interior that is showing its age, but still in remarkably good condition as the pictures will demonstrate. It brought a smile to our faces when we discovered a 1966 Sunday Express newspaper under the footwell carpet which really demonstrates the little use this unmolested car has had. The top of the dashboard is showing sun damage which can easily be restored. The seats are in excellent order and we think could be improved very easily with some specialist cleaning and preservation work. This car is fitted with a Webasto sunroof which is perfect for summer motoring. Bodily the car is in very good shape. The body and paint is showing its age in places, but this adds to the character of a low mileage car. The body is very straight and most importantly the door shuts are original and superb, They are superior to many restored cars we have seen. The chrome has also survived well and the bumpers still look fresh whilst the door handles and light surrounds have some pitting. Underneath, the car is in good order with all jacking points in place and it looks very clean. Mechanically the car is excellent and the engine ticks over quietly with good oil pressure which is not unexpected for such a low mileage car. The manual gearbox works as it should and importantly the car is fitted with the overdrive option. More recent work includes a complete renewal of the brakes front and rear The history file contains various documents issued when the car was new including the buff logbook, along with various MOT certificates dating back to the 1970s. The current V5 along with an old style log book are also present together with the manufacturer's warranty card, the maintenance and service handbook,and a full workshop manual along with the Jaguar service lists. There are miscellaneous invoices relating to various works carried out over many years along with service history. Overall this is simply a very original car that exhibits its age, but is exceptionally sound condition and ready to be used.

1957 MGA 1500 Roadster
This 1957 MG A Roadster has been well cared for by the last custodian for the past 16 years. As an example, the car was subjected to some £15,000 of expenditure in 2016 with Classic Restorations Scotland Ltd which included upgrading the front brakes to discs along with a complete brake overhaul with new lines, new brake master cylinder and clutch master cylinder. In addition an EZ power steering unit was fitted. Among many other items on the list was the replacement of all four tyres and a carb overhaul.. The pictures say it all with this car which remains in excellent shape with the odd paint blemish, but otherwise a very well turned out car. The interior is in good order although the seats are showing their age in places. The car has recently been MOT'd and came through without any advisories. The panel alignment on the car is excellent with the doors sitting nice and flush with the wings. The engine starts on the button and runs cleanly. The car drives exceptionally well. The added benefit of electric power steering which can be adjusted in strength to suit your driving combined with the front brake disc upgrade makes this a lovely MG to drive. This car was originally a US export as many were and when it arrived in the UK in 1998 it was subjected to a total restoration including a full engine strip down which is documented by photographs on file. The car was converted to right hand drive during that restoration and we have photographs on file of it in its original left hand drive form. The history file is thick with invoices over the last twenty years along with old MOT certificates and photographs of the full restoration which took place in 1998. The car has a current MOT until June 2021 and an inspection of the DVLA records will show it has almost a spotless record since their online records began in 2006. The car has recently been serviced and checked through by us and is ready for its next custodian. We think this car is excellent value at the asking price of £21,995.

1972 Triumph TR6
This superb Triumph TR6 has not been on the market for 12 years and has been lovingly cared for by its last custodian. He subjected the car to a full body and mechanical rebuild in 2010 which is documented in photographs on file. Since the rebuild the car has been kept in storage, but it has been maintained well and we have now conducted a thorough recommission and it is now ready for its next custodian. The body work and paint on the car is exceptionally good and in many respects still looks restoration fresh given the limited use it has had over the last decade. The interior is like new with unused new leather seats and one of the best dashboards we have seen in a long time. The hood is also in relatively new condition. The chrome wire wheels are spotless and also like new. The car starts on the button, runs cleanly and goes through the gears without issue. This car has overdrive which works as it should. The heritage certificate on file confirms the car retains its original exterior and interior colour. The file also contains lots of invoices dating back to the 90s along with lots of old MOT certificates also dating back to the 90s along with photographs of the rebuild approximately 10 years ago If you are seeking a very well sorted Triumph TR6 this one is hard to beat at this price point.

1982 Porsche 911 SC
This 1982 Porsche 911 SC has been the subject of some significant expenditure in 2017 which amount to almost £20,000. This included some body refurbishment and mechanical work, but there is still some restoration work to do which is why we have priced the car at £19,500. The history is somewhat limited in that we have invoices on file relating to the work carried out in 2017, but nothing prior to that. The car has been in the same family for 16 years and we may be able to get some further history in due course. The body of the car is in generally good condition and the paintwork shows a nice finish. There will be some work to complete however. It does run and even has a clean MOT. We have had the car inspected by a Porsche specialist and can supply a full list of works required to any interested party. This is the cheapest 911 SC on the market and is priced competitively to allow plenty of room to invest in and add value to the car.

1961 Jaguar MK2 3.8
This 1961 Jaguar MK2 3.8 has just emerged from a long restoration which has involved a complete body strip down and refurbishment along with an engine rebuild and new interior. The restoration is so fresh from completion that car is still being run in. The car presents exceptionally well as the photographs will demonstrate and it is now ready for a new custodian. The refurbishment of the body has included the replacement or repair of many panels whilst the engine has been treated to a £10,000 rebuild at Connaught Competition Engines. The interior has been subjected to a complete refurbishment with fresh leather whist the wood has been restored to a very high standard indeed. The interior of the car is superb. The car remains in its original colour of Carmen Red. The heritage certificate on file also confirms that that this is a matching numbers manual with overdrive car. Looking at the history file it appears to have had just three registered keepers. The car was in a barn find state in 2015 when it was bought by the current custodian who set about having the car fully restored to the condition it is in today. The engine runs beautifully and the car pull well and runs through the gears without issue as you would expect of a car that has just been restored. The history file contains the heritage certificate, miscellaneous invoices relating to the restoration, a period Jaguar MK2 catalogue and operating maintenance book. There are also a lot of photographs of the restoration.There is also a full original tool kit. This MK2 has had an awful lot of money spent on it and is now ready to be run in and used by its next custodian. Offers are invited.

1968 MGB GT
This immaculate 1968 MGB GT has been the subject of two significant restorations over the last 17 years with the last taking place in 2014 when the car was treated to a full bare metal respray at a cost of over £5,000 and additional work such as a new wiring loom was also carried out along with new drums, fuel lines etc . The finish achieved is exceptionally good and remains so six years later. The car has clearly been cosseted throughout its life as evidenced by the thick history file detailing history back to the 80s with invoices and MOTs from that time. The earlier restoration took place in 2003 by a company called LDD Ltd which involved 180 hours of work which is documented in a hand written from Roger Ludgate who founded Lynx Jaguar. A replacement 5 bearing Gold Seal block was installed as part of previous restoration work and the head was converted to run on unleaded. In more recent times the car has clearly been very well cared for and money has been spent when needed including in 2019 new front brake calipers and pads as well as frequent servicing. The pictures really say it all about this car it remains immaculate with superb tartan red paint (its original colour) and a lovely well preserved interior with black leather seats and red piping. The car is fitted with overdrive and everything functions as it should. There is even a refurbished LW/MW period radio. The current MOT expires on the 2nd July 2021 and a scan of the DVLA MOT history will show this car has a very clean record over the years which also adds to the value and provenance of the car. The chrome work is in exceptionally nice condition and is virtually like new as are the pristine chrome wire wheels which really set a car like this off. The history file has a huge amount of information with invoices dating back to the 80s when the car resided in Blackheath. There is also a full summary of previous ownership which has been supplied by the DVLA at some point showing the car first started life in Hatton Garden, London. The car starts on the button, runs cleanly and moves through the gears without issue. You will struggle to find a nicer example especially at this price point and especially one with such great provenance. Act quick as we expect this car to generate lots of interest.

1968 Jaguar E-Type Series 2 Roadster
This 1968 Jaguar E-Type Series 2 OTS arrived in the UK in 1997 having started life in Illinois USA. Upon the car's arrival in the UK it was left in a state of needing restoration where it remained for more than 20 years until the owner passed away. In 2019 the car was sold from the deceased estate to the current custodian who set about a total rebuild of the car including conversion to right hand drive. The restoration was very thorough indeed including new panels where needed along with an engine rebuild, rewire, new braking system, interior retrim, new hood and fresh paint. The engine rebuild included converting to triple Webers which have been tuned to perfection and the car pulls exceptionally well making for an exciting ride! The history file includes a heritage certificate and the car remains in its original colour of British Racing Green. There is a stack of invoices relating to the restoration along with various mechanical data sheets. The end result of the restoration is what you see in the photographs which is a car that has had everything done and is ready for its new custodian to enjoy the summer weather.

1953 Riley RMF
This Riley RMF was one of the last to leave the production line. This is a very original unrestored car showing just over 49,000 miles which might well be correct. This is a low ownership car with a nice history file including a receipt for when the car was purchased second hand in 1958. The RMF is well equipped with a 2,5 litre power plant with hydraulic brakes all round and this car is also fitted with a rev counter including a clock. The car start on the button and the engine runs cleanly and quietly. The gearbox has been stripped in recent years and the car moves through the gears without issue. These are rare cars with just over 1,000 having been manufactured and they do not come to market that often. This is a very original car which shows the blemishes of its near 70 year existence and for someone seeking a car that is true to when it first left the production line, this car is ideal and ready for the season ahead.

1967 Jaguar MK2 3.8
This 1967 Jaguar MK2 3.8 presents in exceptional condition having received a complete restoration costing just short of $110,000 (£60,000) by International Motorsport in New Zealand during 2011/2012. The car was originally a right hand drive export car to NewZealand where it resided until 2016. The restoration was as complete as it can be with a complete body and mechanical strip down. The car was painted in its original colour of black to an exceptionally high standard as the photographs will demonstrate and very importantly the original interior which has been very well preserved remains with the car giving you the true MK2 experience and retaining the fabulous leather aroma when entering the cockpit. The car also benefits from power steering. This is one of the youngest MK2s in existence and just 44 cars were manufactured after this one before production came to an end. Having spent nearly all of its life in New Zealand the body has been very well preserved and the panels are all exceptional with excellent gaps. The engine fires up on the button and runs cleanly and pulls well as you would expect of a car that has been completely restored. The engine bay is nicely detailed and the interior wood has also been nicely restored. The history file is also comprehensive with the original New Zealand registration document present along with original transfer documents which show the ownership history of the car from new until the last owner in New Zealand who had the comprehensive restoration undertaken. The car was originally supplied by Shorters Cars in New Zealand and in fact David Shorter acquired the car in 1985 and kept it for 25 years before it passed to the last owner in New Zealand. The file also includes a heritage certificate which confirms that the car is matching numbers and retains its original colour and interior. The owner's manual and other original documentation including the original registration certificate is also supplied with the car. The invoices relating to the 2011 restoration are all present along with other miscellaneous invoices over the years. The car also has its original King Dick jack and a full original tool box. This car is a really lovely combination of its black paint and original red leather with chrome wire wheels. The pictures say it all, you are buying a car that has had everything done and is undoubtedly one of the best available today especially at the asking price of £37,995

1971 MGB Roadster - heritage body
This MGB Roadster started life as a GT, but was rebodied in 1996 with a roadster heritage shell by Brown and Gammons. The shell was also painted by them at the time to a high standard and even over 20 years later the car still presents very well indeed as the photographs will demonstrate. The car has been with the same custodian since 1985 and has been well preserved with regular servicing and maintenance. The car has recently been subject to a full service. The paint presents very well indeed with just the odd blemish and the panel fits are good. The engine bay also presents well. The interior is in good condition with just some minor wear to the driver's seat squab. The vinly roof is relatively new with clear and unmarked rear windows. The car starts on the button and runs cleanly and drives as it should with a working overdrive. The painted steel wire wheels have been refurbished in recent months and other recent maintenance work includes new rear brake cylinders and a new brake master cylinder. The history file contains lots of invoices including the one for the heritage shell as well as various MOTs. This car is an excellent example of a B roadster and has been priced competitively for a heritage bodied car. Given the current situation with COVID 19 we can supply any additional photographs that may be required as well as a video if needed. We can arrange transport of the car to anywhere in the UK at this time.

1971 MGB Roadster - heritage body
This 1971 MGB Roadster was re-bodied with a heritage shell in the 90s and has clearly been very well preserved since then. A reconditioned Ivor Seale engine was fitted in 1998 and the car has completed around 23,000 miles since then. The car has been subject to some cosmetic work in recent weeks to freshen it up including a new interior with two new leather seats, carpets and door cards along with a walnut fascia dashboard. The car is fitted with chrome wire wheels which really set off well against the white paintwork and black interior. The car starts on the button and runs cleanly and pulls through the gears without issue. Importantly this car has overdrive which is working as it should. The panel gaps around the car and especially the doors are first class. The file contains the V5 along with miscellaneous invoices including one relating to the heritage shell and lots MOT's. This is a very well presented car which has the added benefit of a heritage shell and if looked after should give good service for many years to come. If you are seeking an MGB Roadster this one should be on your list and with a heritage shell we believe it is competitively priced at £12,995.

1946 MG TC
This 1946 MG TC is a superb example with a lovely history which can be traced right back to its purchase in 1946. The car's first owner only kept it for a matter of months before selling it back to a dealership in Park Lane where the second custodian acquired the car in 1946 and retained it for 56 years before the third registered keeper acquired the car in 2002. The second owner had the foresight to write the ownership history of the car including his tenure and details of the third owner he sold the car to. The fourth and last custodian has more recently set about a significant refresh/recommissioning of the car which has brought it back to being an exceptionally nice car and probably not far from the condition you would have found it when sold in Park Lane. There are some lovely original features such as the dashboard and the rare original steering wheel. Recent work that has been done to the car includes a full engine rebuild, new paint, new interior using Apple Green leather for the seats, new hood, wiring loom, brakes and much more.It is now an exceptionally nice example and the photographs clearly demonstrate that. The car starts on the button and runs very well indeed going through the gears without issue. It is a lovely thing to drive. The history file contains miscellaneous invoices and other documents such as a photograph of the proud second owner with his car in 1946 and again at around the time when he sold the car in 2002. There are also letters on file between the second and third owner who kept in touch and there is discussion about the car which really adds to the provenance.

1965 Vauxhall Viva Deluxe - just 22,000 miles
This Vauxhall Viva Deluxe has spent a large proportion of its life parked in an underground car park in London which accounts for the unusually low mileage. The car has just two owners from new and the first kept the car until his death in 2012. The second custodian has also recently passed away which is why the car has come to market. The car has clearly been stored well and apart from blemishes on the paint and some crazing on the boot lid caused by a cover, the car is in exceptionally original condition. The interior has survived well with the only issue being the rear seat which has come away from the rear parcel shelf which is probably due to heat. We have checked the car over to make sure it is safe for the road and there are no issues and the car drives very well indeed. It runs cleanly and goes through the gears without issue. There are no corrosion issues and the underside of the car is very well preserved. This is a car that should give many years of good service if looked after. The history file contains the original purchase invoice along with the original service book which has some early stamps in it. There is also the driver's instruction manual and a workshop manual. A number of invoices relating to miscellaneous service items are also in the file. The current V5 still lists the first owner and we will give a copy of this to the next custodian to provide a full history going forward. Being an unrestored car the gaps are all correct and the doors shut with clean lines. This car is something of a rarity with such low mileage and will make a good talking point at a local show. At £4,750 the car is priced competitively for such a low mileage well preserved car.

Ford Escort MK 1 Twin Cam - Concours
This is a very rare opportunity to purchase a Ford Escort Twin Cam that has been rebuilt to the most exact and original standard that you are going to find. The car has been prepared to concours standard using only original or original refurbished parts. Everything on the car is correct including for example an original carpet set. The car is better than new and has formed part of private collections for many years and this is the first time the car has come to market in a long time. This is also a very low mileage car showing just 44,970 miles on the clock which appears to be genuine based upon the MOT history. This is not one of the many cars that have been restored with non original parts or using parts from different cars. This example is exactly as it should be and is considered to be one of the best examples in the country. The history file contains invoices along with old MOT certificates, a workshop manual and other historical information relating to the Twin Cam. The pictures really say it all with this car and you cannot truly grasp how good it is until you see it in the flesh. We strongly recommend viewing if you are seeking a Twin Cam and want the best there is. We will happily put a fresh MOT on the car for the next custodian

The car starts on the button and runs cleanly and pulls well through the gears. The overdrive is also fully operational. The history file includes miscellaneous invoices over the years along with lots of MOT certificates. This is a well sorted MGB and with a heritage body shell we believe is excellent value at the asking price.

This MG TC has only very recently been the subject of a complete chassis up restoration. This is a home market matching numbers car. The project was fully documented with a full photographic record. The car wants for nothing and the pictures really say it all, it is immaculate and really looks a picture standing on its wire wheels. The restoration included a new ash frame and a full engine rebuild with fast road cams fitted to enhance the performance. The interior has also been renewed in full leather and the car was treated to a full respray in signal red. The car comes with full wet weather gear which includes a new double duck hood and tonneau. On the road the car drives exactly as you would expect and delivers good performance going through the gears well and you also benefit from synchromesh in second, third and fourth. You would struggle to find a nicer example, you are effectively getting a new car fresh from restoration at what is a very competitive price.

1991 - Porsche 964 C4 with Gunnar Racing body and 993 engine - just 12,000 miles
This 964 is somewhat different from how it started life, and is somewhat unique. Firstly because it is fitted with a Gunnar racing body which is in the form of a wide body 993 and secondly because it is fitted with a 993 engine with a believed 12,000 miles only on the clock. The car is also a C4 and benefits from a manual gearbox so it ticks all of the right boxes. The car has been with the same owner for the last 19 years and it has been in storage for much of that time.More recently the car has been recommissioned with a Porsche specialist who has gone through the car and made sure it is ready for the road once more. The cost of this exercise was well in excess of £2,000 and included a major service. The car is now fit and ready for some summer motoring. The condition of the car is excellent with superb paint and a red leather interior which is showing some limited wear, but otherwise in great condition. The hood appears to be relatively new. Everything works on the car including the electric seats and although now fitted with a Panasonic radio/cd, the original Blaupunkt radio also comes with the car. The car starts on the button and the engine behaves as it should for a low mileage car. The road holding of this car is exemplary as you would expect with a wide body setup. The history file includes various miscellaneous invoices along with the Porsche service book and other material issued with the car when it was new. The car has an advisory free MOT until March 2020. You are unlikely to find another such car and this is a unique opportunity to buy something a little different with what must be one of the lowest ,mileage 993 engines around.

1960 Ford Escort
This super rare Ford Escort (100E) has been in storage for many years, but has been well preserved and has clearly been the subject of a restoration at some point. The car is in need of full recommissioning, but the engine starts and runs well and it will not take too much work to have this car back on the road. The car is in generally very sound condition and the paint although showing its age in places still presents well enough. The interior is in good original condition. the underneath of the car is in excellent condition with no major corrosion showing. The clock shows just 58,000 miles which might well be correct given the overall condition of the car. These cars are extremely rare and this is a great opportunity to buy something a little different that will prove to be a talking point at any classic car show. The car is priced competitively to allow plenty of room for any recommissioning costs.

1962 Jaguar E-Type Series 1 Coupe - owned by one family since 1965 - supplied by Coombs of Guildford
This Series 1 E-Type comes with the best provenance you are going to find with a history file dating back to when the car was new. There is an early service history at the famous Coombs of Guildford who supplied the car new in 1962 and then again to the current family custodian in 1965 and after that the invoices go on for decades! The information contained within the file suggests the car has a modified gas glow head which gives a 9.5:1 compression ratio with 3.07:1 differential through a competition clutch and a full synchromesh gearbox which was retro fitted by Jaguar in the 60s. Quite a combination for a series 1 car which according to the file was clocked at 160mph on the Newport Pagnell section of the M1! The car itself will need recommissioning/restoration. The current custodian has repaired and preserved the car over many decades, but the car will need some work before returning to the road having been off the road since 1998. The body is corrosion free. The engine runs, but at the very least the carbs will need attention to achieve smooth running. The history file is very thick indeed and documents the purchase of the car from Coombs of Guildford in 1965 with the original invoice present and other writing describing the upgrade made to the head. Following on from there are lots of invoices from the 60s relating to work carried out by Jaguar. The father of the current custodian used the car in Vienna for a number of years in the 60s and there are invoices on file from its time in Europe. The file includes invoices from the 70s, 80s and 90s until the point in 1998 when the car was taken off the road. The file itself is incredibly comprehensive and one of the best we have seen. There is even a several page narrative written by the father of the current custodian shortly before he died detailing his experiences with the E-Type over the previous 33 years. It includes some great stories and really adds to the huge appeal which this car has. Plus there are a number of photographs of the car with some dating back to the 60s. This is a matching numbers car apart from the gearbox which was upgraded in the 60s. We have a heritage certificate on file confirming the car remains in the original colour of Carmen Red with a black leather interior. The certificate also confirms that the car was supplied by Coombs of Guildford. The car retains its original registration number. In summary this car really does tick all of the boxes with a box full of provenance and the interesting feature of the gas flow head. This will undoubtedly prove to be a rewarding project for the next custodian.

Porsche 964 C2 Coupe
This is a very special Porsche 911 964 C2 Coupe which comes with impeccable provenance and is in a condition which you will struggle to better. The car has the fullest service history you are going to get for what is a relatively low mileage car at just 72,019 miles. The service history actually spans two stamped up Guarantee and Maintenance books, the details of which we have listed below to demonstrate how well the car has been looked after. All of the service work apart from two have been carried out by a Porsche dealer and the two exceptions were by a Porsche specialist. This is only a two owner car and amazingly the first owner has logged every time the car was filled up with petrol, including the name of the petrol station and the location. This was done up until 71,413 miles! Quite a history to say the least.

Porsche 993 Turbo
Porsche 993 Turbo
The Porsche 993 was the last of the air cooled 911 cars and if you are seeking the best of the series it has to be the Turbo. With 408bhp from its 3.6 litre, twin turbo engine, these cars are capable of standstill to 62 mph in just 4.5 seconds with a maximum speed of 180mph. Even the modern 911 cars can only surpass those numbers by modest amounts. This 1996 993 Turbo started life in Belfast and has a relatively low mileage of just over 57,000 miles. Most importantly this is documented with a fully stamped up service book, the details of which we have listed below. The last service was undertaken in August 2018.

This 1964 MGB Roadster Pull Handle was fully rebuilt in 2007 which included a full mechanical and body refurbishment. The car has completed less than 3,000 miles since then and still looks restoration fresh as the pictures demonstrate. The car has been fitted with leather magnolia seats and trim with walnut cappings on the dashboard and doors.

Mechanically the car starts on the button and runs and pulls well. It is fitted with electronic ignition along with an oil cooler and Kenlow fan. The engine bay is very nicely detailed. The gearbox was reconditioned in 2017 and a new clutch fitted at the same time. The history file shows that the car has had only 5 previous keepers one of whom owned the car for over 20 years. The clock shows just over 35,000 miles. The file includes numerous MOT certificates along with many invoices. The car was last serviced in November 2018. This is an immaculate example which has clearly been very well cared for since its restoration. You will struggle to find a better example at this price point.

1933 MG J1 - Available from the 30th August
This 1933 MG J1 is something of a rarity with only a handful or so of survivors known. This particular example was the subject of a complete restoration in the late 90s after which it was put into storage where it has stayed until now. Having been left for so long it will need a full recommissioning and restoration although the good news is that the body is just showing surface rust in places as is the chassis which has clearly been blasted and painted during the restoration process. The interior and wood is all good and the hood frame is present. The engine hasn't turned in 20 years and will need careful re-commissioning. This is a car that has had all of the work done including a new body tub and for someone with the right skill set it should prove to be a very rewarding restoration. The hood frame is present although not attached to the car and it will need a new hood made. The history file includes a buff log book and an old V5, but a new one will need to be applied for. The car is still registered on the DVLA mainframe which means the valuable MG number plate will come with the car. The car will be available for viewing on the 30th August and we urge you to act fast as this car is sure to generate a lot of interest. In terms of valuation we believe it is worth around the £15,000 mark. but all offers will be considered.

1974 Triumph TR6
This lovely 1974 Triumph TR6 has come to market for the first time since 1991 and only because of the death of the owner. The car was subject to a complete body refurbishment in 2015 which also included a total refit of the interior. There are invoices on file for the best part of £20,000. The end result is a fabulous looking car which has been painted to a high standard with an immaculate interior. The hood was also replaced and the photographs really tell the story of the restoration. As always with a TR6 the key issue is panel gaps and this car has nice gaps with doors that sit flush with the wings. The interior has been done to a high standard with refurbished seats and the dashboard is one of the best you will find with no marks or wear. The engine runs well with good oil pressure and the car pulls and drives as a TR6 should. The history file contains the V5 and the invoices relating to the recent restoration.

1962 Jaguar MK2 3.8 - Manual
This Jaguar MK2 3.8 was the subject of a ground up restoration over many years which has involved a total mechanical and body restoration which was completed in 2007. The body shell was sand blasted and repainted in Indigo Blue. Mechanically the car has been completely rebuilt and and up-rated where necessary. The engine was balanced by Roe Engineering of Fleet in Hampshire and joined to a Getrag five speed, fully synchromesh gearbox with a diaphragm clutch.

The sills are exceptional with no filler that you find with so many cars and even the high priced examples. The paint is still superb as the pictures will show and the interior is still restoration fresh.

Most importantly the cam belt has just been changed along with a full service, These cars are coming into their own now as a classic and rightly so. This is a later car fitted with the 113bhp M40 engine which as a manual propels it to 60mph in 10.8 seconds.

The original tool kit and a BMW first aid kit are also present. The exterior paint which is Dolphin Grey Metallic is in super condition and apart from the odd small blemish, it again shows its relatively low mileage.

1960 Daimler SP250 which has been in the same family ownership for the last 20 years. The car has clearly been well looked after over the years and presents very well indeed. The maroon paint is in good order as you will see from the photographs albeit with some blemishes. This car comes with the rare hardtop which is in excellent condition. The hood is also in good order with no rips or tears and there is a hood bag and full tonneau. The interior is showing some age with wear on the driver's seat, but again the cabin still presents well. The car has the optional heater fitted and an electric screen wash. The mechanics of the car are excellent and having been fitted with electronic ignition the car fires up instantly and settles very quickly into a gentle tickover with good oil pressure. The car moves through the gears without any issues and pulls well. The chassis also appears to be in very good condition. The rear bumper is in need of re-chroming and the rear wire wheels are also showing some corrosion although they are presentable. The file contains the original buff log book which confirms that the car still carries its original registration. The file also contains a number of old MOT certificates.

1951 Lea Francis 14hp Light Saloon
This car has been in long term storage and is going to need recommissioning/restoration to get it back onto the road. The car is largely in good shape. The body panels being aluminium are in good order although there is bubbling in various places, mainly along the seams of the rear wings. The chassis is intact and free of any major corrosion. The interior is in relatively good order with just the driver's seat needing some repair work to one side of the squab. The headlining has some marks but is otherwise okay. The engine turns freely. The history file contains miscellaneous invoices along with some old MOT certificates. There is a lot of material covering the mechanics of the car including a full instruction book. There is also an original brochure and even the small Lea Francis booklet with advice on tires! This is rare car which will make for a rewarding winter project with plenty of room to invest and add value to the car.

1960 Jaguar MK2 3.8 Automatic
This 1960 Jaguar MK 2 3.8 has had just four former keepers and has a mileage of just 56,800 miles from new. The car presents very well in old English white with original red leather. The panel fits are good and the car appears to be very original. Recent work includes a cylinder head rebuild in 2016 at a cost of almost £4,000.

The history file includes a good number of old MOT certificates dating back to 1978 when the mileage was 43,152 miles. The file also includes a workshop manual and miscellaneous invoices over the years. The colour of this car which is closer to cream than white really works well with the red leather which the pictures will demonstrate. The painted wire wheels also set the car off well. A stainless steel exhaust is fitted. This is a nice low mileage example of a 3.8 which represents excellent value for money at the asking price of £15,995.

The paint presents exceptionally well as the photographs will demonstrate and the panels are free of dents and other imperfections. The interior is in excellent condition with a new headlining. The dashboard is also in very good condition apart from some minor flaking at the end towards the driver's door. Most of the chrome work on the car is exceptional and looks new. The underside of the car is excellent with all jacking points present and correct. The tyres all appear to be relatively new. Mechanically the car is in good order showing the correct oil pressure and the engine is smoke free. The automatic gearbox works through the gears as it should and the car pulls well.

The car has an MOT until July 2019. Overall the car presents very well indeed and does not need any work done. If you are seeking a well sorted Daimler this one fits the bill.

1960 Austin Healey Frogeye Sprite
Coming from long term ownership of over 20 years. Steel bonnet car with 64,659 miles on the clock which we believe to be genuine based upon the MOT certificates on file. The car was treated to a signficant body restoration some 10 years or so ago and has been in storage ever since in a dehumidifed garage. The car has been regularly MOT'd and the latest one expires in August 2019. The car is white with a red interior which is as per its original spec. The latest major work done was in 2015 when the gearbox was rebuilt. Other work at the time included a new master cylinder, clutch slave cylinder, rear cylinders and hoses. Rebuilt rear hubs and four new tyres. The car still has its original 948cc engine. The engine fires up on the button and runs well and cleanly. There is the odd small blister on the paintwork, but the paint itself still looks very fresh indeed because the car has been in storage since the restoration work was completed. There is a tonneau cover and sidescreens, but no hood mechanism. The file includes an old V5, a number of old MOT certifiates along with a heritage certificate. The car presents exceptionally well as the pictures show and we do not believe you will find a better value for money Frogeye on the market today.

1996 Mercedes Benz SL60 AMG
Given the meteoric rise in the values of the R107 cars, interest in R129 derivatives has increased significantly in recent months and if you are seeking an investment grade car the low production Mercedes SL60 AMG is in our view the car to own. With perhaps just 49 right hand drive cars having been manufactured the laws of supply and demand should mean these cars have some way to go in terms of price appreciation over the coming years. This particular example is in exceptional condition with a virtually unmarked body and interior. The condition of the car shows it has been well cared for during its life and even the driver's seat does not have the usual scuff marks you would associate with a car of this age. There is indeed very little to fault about this car. The last service was carried out by Cummings in Cornwall at 69,770 miles and the mileage today stands at just over 74,900 miles. This car has the fetching panoramic hard top roof along with the AMG styling front spoiler and side skirt and the AMG sport package exterior. The car has cruise control, heated memory seats, electric windows, rear seats, wind deflector and air con and also benefits from factory fitted Xenon headlights and the expensive factory fitted Becker stereo system . The engine starts on the button and the throaty roar of the AMG-tuned 32-valve six-litre V8 quickly makes itself known. As you expect the car pulls like a train and provides supercar performance. The official BHP output is listed at 384BHP, but the car is known to generate considerably more than this. A quick search of the history of this model will demonstrate why. The car comes with a full history file which has lots of MOT certificates and miscellaneous invoices relating to work done over the years which is primarily services. The car had all new discs and pads at 68,000 miles. If you are seeking supercar performance with investment potential these cars represent fantastic value in our view.

1993 Ferrari 348TS
This low mileage right hand drive manual Ferrari 348 TS is in exceptionally good condition. The paint is excellent whilst the interior is immaculate with just the usual very modest wear to the bolster on the driver's seat. The headlining is unmarked and the dashboard and centre console are like new as you would expect of such a low mileage car. The car still carries its original Ferrari alloy wheels which are also in super condition. The targa top gives you the benefit of open top motoring making for a very fun car. The car has clearly been well loved during its life with the last service at 24287 miles by the independent Ferrari specialist Migliore Cars. Looking further back through the service history, the cam belt, belt tensioner and cam shaft belt guide were replaced at approximately 21,000 miles in late 2013. The clutch was also replaced in 2013. The car has a stainless steel sports exhaust and is also fitted with air conditioning. The car comes with the full tool kit and case. The history file includes miscellanous invoices for work done along with the service invoices This is a super example of a 348 and in our view these cars are an excellent means of getting into Ferrari ownership at a reasonable price with the prospect of long term capital appreciation.

1960 Jaguar MK2 3.8 Automatic
This car has had only two owners from new, the last which owned the car since it was five years old. Following the death of the owner we are now selling the car as in need of recommissioning/ light restoration. It has been off the road for a good two decades, but has been remarkably well preserved. The body is generally in good condition with only an area at the very bottom of the rear wing showing a small area of surface corrosion whilst there is some paint flaking at the based of the doors and the bonnet has an area where something has been stood on it which has impacted the paint. The paint in general however presents well and the car still has its original Cotswold Blue paint. The underneath of the car is very good and the interior is original and again in nice condition with no rips or tears in the leather. The headlining is also in good order. The dashboard also presents well with none of the usual cracking that is so common with these cars. The engine bay is clean as well. The car will need a thorough recommissioning. The engine starts and runs. This is going to be a rewarding project for its next owner as the main work required is the mechanical recommissioning of the car as the body and underneath is in generally very good order. With values of these cars rising strongly, there is plenty of room at the asking price to invest in this car and add value. The car comes with its original buff logbook. The registration number has been valued at £2,000 and the car also has a full original tool kit which is worth a small fortune on its own!

This Citroen Avant is a particularly nice example which has been preserved well and subjected to restoration when needed during its life. The paint on the car has recently been refreshed and as you will see from the photographs the car presents very well indeed. The interior has at some point been re-trimmed. The history file shows that the car had its engine rebuilt in 1994. In 2006 the brake master cylinder and carb were refurbished. A new water pump was fitted in 2007 along with a new clutch and radiator. The gearbox was rebuilt in 2009. The car has completed limited miles since then having spent a prolonged period in storage.This car starts on the button and the engine runs very quietly and sweetly. The history file contains invoices relating to the engine rebuild and other work undertaken since. There are also a number of MOT certificates along with a copy of the instruction book for this car. This particular car was used as part of a buyer's guide in Classic Cars magazine in October 1999, a copy of which is in the file. The magazine feature states "ask any owner what the appeal of the car is and the response will always be the same - how modern it feels behind the wheel". The Light 15 is the model to own given the larger engine and this particular example is perfect for some summer touring.

This particular MGB Roadster has been with the same custodian for the last 27 years. The car was bought in 1991 in near perfect condition and over the last 27 years the car has been well cared for with a regular service history and money has been spent whenever needed. The MOT history for this car speaks for itself with no mention of corrosion and an inspection of the underneath reveals why. This car has been very well preserved indeed with excellent shut lines and in particular superb door gaps which sit flush with the wings, a rare thing for MGBs these days. The black leather seats are still in excellent condition and the Moto Lita steering wheels sets the cabin off well. Everything works as it should including the clock! The car starts on the button and runs cleanly and is very responsive driving as an MGB should. The hood is relatively new and we have just fitted new front brake callipers and a refurbished brake servo. The car has also just had a full service and is now ready for the summer season of open top motoring. The car comes with a nice history file including the many invoices over the last 30 years for servicing and other minor repairs. Finding a nice MGB at a reasonable price is increasingly difficult, but this car ticks the right boxes with a nice body, good gaps and a very pleasant interior along with a nicely set up engine, gearbox with overdrive plus the added bonus of a car that is excellent underneath. If looked after this car should provide good service for many years to come.

This is a virtually unmarked 1995 Mercedes SL320. The car has had just one owner from new and benefits from the rare AMG body kit and the optional 5 speed automatic gearbox (most were 4 speed). The condition of the car is hard to beat with a near spotless body work and an immaculate interior. In fact the only negative is that the hard top has a very small dent. This car has been well cared for all of its life with a full service history and with around 66,000 miles on the clock it is still a relatively low mileage car. The original purchase invoice is on file detailing the options such as the AMG body kit, blue/black metallic paint, climate control, leather rear child seat, electric steering column and 8 hole alloys. The total cost of this car when new was a huge £71,000 making it fabulous value and with the price of R129 cars now on the up and in all likelihood likely to start chasing the R107 values, now is the time to buy.

Fast forward to 2016 and to really finish this car off, it has been retrimmed completely including all wood , roof lining, seats, carpets, door panels etc, at a cost of £12,000. The interior is probably better than when new! The chrome is all as new as well and the wire wheels are still in superb condition.

1995 Porsche 911 (993) Coupe C2 - Manual
1995 Porsche 911 (993) Coupe. Air Cooled 3.6 litre 6 cylinder 272 BHP engine with 6 speed manual gearbox This car presents well with very nice overall paint with the odd blemish and an interior that has worn well over the years. Importantly the car comes with a stamped up service book, the last of which was undertaken in June of this year. During the last three years the cars has completed a total of 2,000 miles only, but it has still been serviced during each of the last three years. The car drives as you would expect and the manual gearbox operates well. Recent work includes a replacement motor for the passenger window and replacement handbrake cables. The history files contains various service invoices along with a good number of MOT certificates. The files also includes the service book and driver's manual. The Coupe is undoubtedly the most sought after of the 993 series and with values still on the rise this car is an excellent opportunity to buy a car that should offer long term investment potential as well as a great driving car.

1955 MG TF 1500
1955
This is an excellent example of the relatively rare MG TF1500. The car is an older restoration having been fully rebuilt in the late 80s. In 2000 the engine was subjected to a further rebuild by the respected firm Brown and Gammons Ltd at a cost of over £7,000. Since then it has done little mileage covering around 6,000 miles in total and in fact in recent years the car as had very little usage covering just 1,000 miles during the last 12 years or so. The car has been very well preserved with good paint and chrome work. The interior is showing its age, but remains rip free and is perfectly presentable. The dashboard is excellent and the Mota Lita steering wheel sets the cabin off well. Full wet weather gear including the side screens and a tonneau come with the car. The valuable registration number of 133 TF is also included in the sale.

This is a nicely preserved Mercedes 450SL. The car presents well with an excellent interior which is free of any rips or tears and still looks quite fresh. The body is in overall good order with a few blemishes. The car runs cleanly and a recent driving test showed it to perform as you expect from a larger engined R107 Mercedes. Includes hardtop and softtop. With the ongoing upward march in R107 values this car represents excellent value in our opinion.

1994 Caterham Super Seven
This Caterham Super Seven has been built for hillclimb and track day events, it is not a car that is registered for use on the public roads. The car has only recently been rebuilt and is in lovely condition. The engine is a 1.4K Series Twin Cam which is coupled to a 5 speed type 9 gearbox. This car uses a De Dion rear axle. Being a lightweight car as you would expect it absolutely flies along and is an extremely fun thing to use and is perfect to take along to a weekend hill climb or for use on a track. Nothing needs to be done and the car is ready to go.

1972 Triumph TR6 - 150BHP
An exceptionally nice 1972 Triumph TR6 150bhp. As always when it comes to sourcing a TR6 panel gaps are of paramount importance and this one ticks all of the right boxes with nice even gaps and very good panel fit. This car has a very large history file going all the way back to the 70s which provides everything we need to know about this car. It was subject to a complete and comprehensive body refurbishment in 1990 at a cost of almost £7,000 which in today's money would be a significant sum indeed. The restoration was clearly to a very high standard and with the car having cover less than 20,000 miles since the restoration it still presents in fantastic condition.

A unique opportunity to buy a Jaguar MK 2 340 which has just 43,000 miles on the clock and has had only two onwers from new, the last of which had the car for 33 years. The car has not been on the road now for 17 years, but it has been kept in dry storage and has been preserved remarkably well.The interior as you will see from the photographs looks fresh whilst the body of the car is in very good overall order. The car will need fresh paint due to crazing which has occurred during storage, but with some light restoration and recommissioning this should make for a very rewarding project for someone. We have priced the car at a level which provides lots of scope to invest in it and increase the value of this car. The mileage is fully warranted with lots of MOT certificates dating back to 1974.

MG Metro Turbo
Fewer than 30 still on the road
A real rarity and something of a sleeper among the 80s hot hatches. The MG Metro Turbo has been long over looked but with 80s hot hatches rising exponentially in value, these cars are bound to follow suit, especially when you consider that there are only 27 left on the road according to the 'How Many Are Left' website. This particular example is in need of restoration having resided in a garage for the last 26 years or so. It was taken off the road in 1991 when the onwer could no longer afford the huge insurance premium you had to pay for these cars and has only come to light with the garage due for demolition. The car has just 38,860 miles on the clock which appears genuine given that the last MOT in 1991 shows 36024 miles. We believe the car has been in the same family since new.

1970 Triumph Vitesse 2 Litre
This is an immaculate 1970 Triumph Vitesse 2 LItre. Finding a nice Vitesse is very difficult indeed but this car ticks all of the boxes with excellent paint, good panel gaps, original seats with a burr walnut dashboard and a matching wood rimmed steering wheel. The interior is unmarked and the hood appears to be new. The car has clearly been subjected to a significant restoration in the past and primrose yellow goes perfectly with the wire wheels. The engine runs cleanly and pulls well. The engine bay is nicely detailed and the underneath of the car is also in superb condition. This is a well sorted Vitesse and should provide its new owner with many miles of fun motoring.

Austin Seven Swallow Saloon
1930 Austin Seven Swallow Series 1. This car has just returned from a collection in Spain where it has resided for the last ten years. The car is absolutely immaculate and has been subjected to a full and thorough restoration to a very high standard. We have photographs on file of the restoration. The car is correct and has a lovely leather interior with a superb dashboard. The paint finish is first class and the car has straight panels with no ripples and good door fits which is rare for a Swallow. Mechanically the car is spot on and fires quickly and runs cleanly. These are rare cars and they are becoming quite scarce now due to so many leaving the country. It is nice to have one returned and you will struggle to find one in as good condition as this one. We are currently in the process of registering the car with the DVLA which should be complete within the next seven to ten days.

The condition of the car reflects its low mileage with fantastic as-new panel fit, unlike many restored cars.

Bristol 400
1948 Bristol 400 – near concours condition I have owned this Bristol for the last seven years and it has provided a huge amount of pleasure. The car is being sold for the simple reason that it does not get the exercise it needs and having covered a mere 2400 miles since 2003 it seems right for it to be found a new home. The car itself was sold for export in 1948 to Australia but was repatriated in the early 1990s when the previous owner undertook a complete rebuild of the car to a very high standard. There are photographs on file showing the car to have been completely stripped back to bare metal. The car was treated to a full interior retrim at a cost of several thousand pounds which in the early 90s was not an insignificant amount and it was in 2003 that the engine was stripped down and assessed for what work should be done. The engine was subsequently rebuilt at a cost of over £11,000. A full report on the engine was compiled at the time by the company that undertook the work so you know exactly what has been done and given that the car has completed limited miles since 2003 the engine has a long way to go before it is likely to need any attention. The gearbox was subjected to a full rebuild in 1997 again at significant cost and there is no reason to believe any expenditure will be required here either.

1925 Crossley 15/30 V Screen Saloon
We have great pleasure in selling on behalf of our client this superb motor car. The origins of the Crossley Motor company date back to an engineering company called Crossley Brothers which was set up in 1867 in Manchester. The move to motor vehicle production began in April 2006 when Crossley Motors Ltd was first registered. After the Great War several models were introduced by the company and the one we are presenting for sale is the 2.3 litre 15/30 model which was actually an export model that was sold to New Zealand. Interestingly this model was designated in the home market as the 14hp although its actual RAC horsepower rating was 15.6. This model was produced between 1922 and 1927 and it is estimated that approximately 1000 cars were sold. The car that we have for sale is the only known 15/30 V Screen survivor that was bodied by Crossley, making this a unique piece of automotive history.

It also comes with the first invoice for its first service at 500 miles and also a letter from the original owner to Triumph expressing his dissatisfaction at the time to the dealer that sold the car that the undersealing that he had requested had not been completed correctly and which was then subsequently rectified by Williams Motors! The car also comes with the Triumph Spitfire MK2 sales brochure along with the Shellubrication slip detailing the oil that had been put in the car before it was sold. There is also a Triumph Spitfire lubrication chart, a Triumph Service book of service vouchers for the car and an owner’s handbook.
