150 A 1957/58 Francis Barnett Plover motorcycle, black and white. Francis Barnett

produced lightweight small capacity motorcycles between 1919 and 1964 for the

commuter and these were very popular with trail and scramble riders. This Plover

has been restored and comes direct from a Somerset collector. During the

restoration the original 150cc Villiers engine was replaced with the larger

capacity 197cc version. There is no logbook or history accompanying the

motorcycle and the new purchaser will have to apply to DVLA for a new

registration document. No MOT or tax See illustration

151 A 1987 Suzuki GSXR1100h, registration number E302 BSO, red and black. This

show condition GSXR1100h (Slabby) was purchased by the vendor in 2009 from

Henderson's Garage at Nairn in Scotland after a three year search. Not satisfied

with the overall condition he embarked on a full nut and bolt rebuild which was

carried out by West Side Motorcycles & Customs in Weston Super Mare to

concourse condition. E302 BSO went on to win the RBLR Weston Super Mare

Japanese theme night (Bike of the Night) and has been on display with V & J

Superbikes at their Yeovil (Suzuki) and Bridgwater (Honda) showrooms.

Accompanying the motorcycle are a matching helmet and gloves, an original

sale/insurance booklet, an assembly and pre-delivery booklet, a service and

owner's manual and various superbike/performance magazines. The history file

contains service and restoration receipts. This 17,000 miles from new

GSXR1100h now offers the next owner a show ready bike to compete at

concourse level including the RBLR Bike of the Year. V5C, MOT to April 2011,

taxed to May 2011 See illustrations

The Motor Vehicles

156 A 1978 Datsun 260Z 2+2 coupé, registration number CYC 897S, chassis number

GRS30-020098, engine number L26-173245, black. The Datsun Z cars for many

took over the slot left behind after the demise of the Austin Healey 3000. With its

powerful straight six engine and striking coupé styling made for a very attractive

and appealing sports car. The current owner has restored the car and has used it

very sparingly since completing the restoration. The 260Z has been owned by the

current vendor since 1986. He completed a ground up restoration between 1989

and 1990 then continued to use it until 1993. Since then it has been dry stored

until recently been recommissioned for its MOT. History file contains old MOTs

and receipts. V5, MOT to July 2011, no current tax See illustrations £1600.00

157 A 1974 MG Midget Mk III 1275cc, registration number SED 47M, chassis

number GAN143395G, engine number 1341, red. The Mk III was available

between 1966 and 1974 and was instantly recognisable from the previous Mk I

and Mk II by the distinctive round rear wheel arches. SED 47M has been with the

present lady owner since 1989. The car was purchased in June and a major

restoration was completed by August of the same year. A brief outline of the

restoration work carried out includes a full engine strip down and rebuild with

reconditioned cylinder head, a new oil pump, de-coke, new gaskets, camshaft,

new black carpets and black vinyl trim, a new hood and full tonneau cover, a

body refurbishment and respray with new off side and near side inner front wings,

foot wells, inner sills, inner and outer rear wheel arches, a new clutch, exhaust,

brakes, suspension and numerous other items. The recorded mileage was 94,964

miles at the end of the restoration. During the next 22 years SED 47M has been

garaged and used on high days and holidays, with a current mileage now reading

just over 99,500 miles. Since April 2002 when the last MOT expired SED 47M

has remained in dry storage. After such a long period of inactivity SED 47M will

now require recommissioning and the usual safety checks before taking to the

road once again. There is a large history file accompanying the car with old

MOTs, a summary of the restoration and maintenance bills back to 1984. V5, no

current MOT or tax See illustrations £1550.00

158 A 1994 Mini Cooper 1.3i, registration number M160 OCF, British Racing Green

with a white roof and racing stripes, with black half leather interior. The iconic

Alec Issigonis designed Mini was launched in 1959 and revolutionised small car

design. Available under both Austin (Seven) and Morris (Mini Minor)

designations, the Mini featured a transversely mounted BMC A series engine of

848 cc, sitting on top of the gear box/differential unit, and driving the front

wheels. Underneath the box like body the suspension was by rubber cones and

the distinctive wheel at each corner design afforded excellent road holding. This

three owner Mini Cooper was purchased from a previous Charterhouse auction

and has had little use in the last two years. V5C, ***no current MOT***, no

current tax See illustrations

159 A 1954 Morris Minor convertible, registration number 237 YUC, birch grey with

red interior. This genuine Morris Minor convertible has been subject to recent

restoration work including a new Everflex contrasting maroon hood and hood

bag, and is fitted a 803cc engine. V5C, MOT to May 2011, tax exempt See

illustration

160 A 1981 Mercedes Benz 280SL roadster, registration number DDZ 5147, chassis

number WDB1070422011671, engine number 11099022000137, white. The 107

Series roadsters and coupés were manufactured between 1971 and 1989 and

approximately 227,000 rolled off the production line. This automatic 280 SL

finished in white with a blue leather interior and mohair soft top has the rare rear

seat conversion, and works hard top. The history file contains a stamped

Mercedes Benz service book, other maintenance receipts and old MOTs. The SL

range of roadsters and coupés now offer stylish, practical and reliable transport if

properly maintained and represent good value for money. V5, V5C, MOT to

November 2011, currently on SORN See illustration

161 A 1974 Triumph Stag, registration number TAA 334M, chassis number

LD314510, engine number LF025342HE, Triumph white. The Giovanni

Michelotti styled Triumph Stag was launched in 1970. In 1964 a tired 2000

saloon was dispatched to Italy for Giovanni to restyle the car in preparation for

the Turin Motor Show. Whilst visiting the factory the engineering director, Harry

Webster, saw the two door four seater tourer and immediately purchased the

design. Further development work took place in England including the fitting of

the distinctive T roll bar and the installation for Triumph's all new 3 litre V8

engine. This desirable manual overdrive lady owned Triumph Stag is finished in

Triumph white with a saddle tan interior and has the desirable and unusual

chrome wire wheels. This Stag also has the usual refinements of power assisted

steering, electric windows, mohair soft top and works hard top. The mileage of

82,000 miles is believed to be genuine and there is a large history file of past

receipts, old MOTs, handbooks and general correspondence to substantiate the

mileage. V5, V5C, MOT to August 2011, tax to September 2011 See

162 A 1981 Mercedes Benz 280SL roadster, registration number OIA 63, chassis

number 10704222010504, engine number 11098622011567. The 107 Series of

roadsters and coupés were manufactured between 1971 and 1989 with

approximately 227,000 rolling off the production line. OIA 63 is finished in

metallic sage green with a green tex interior. The usual refinements of automatic

transmission, power assisted steering, electric windows, and hard and soft tops are

fitted. The recorded mileage of approximately 47,000 is believed to be genuine.

In the current ownership of six years the car has seen very little use, only covering

approximately 1500 miles. The vendor informs us that there is a stamped service

book, old MOTs and receipts, but unfortunately they weren't available to view at

the time of cataloguing, it is hoped that they will be available on the view days.

These 107 Series cars make superb every day classics with their inherent build

167 A 1981 Mercedes Benz 280SL roadster, registration number DIW 9390. This

lady owned 280SL is attractively finished in silver blue metallic with a

contrasting blue leather interior. The 280SL's are always well appointed (and this

one is no exception) with automatic transmission, electric windows, power

assisted steering, soft and hard tops. They make excellent reliable classic cars,

capable of every day use. The 280SL with its six cylinder straight six engine is

more fuel efficient than the larger more powerful V8 versions and is more

economically viable with today's fuel prices. V5C, MOT to August 2011, ***no

168 A ***1935*** Wolseley Wasp, registration number PV 2677, green over black.

The very rare Wolseley Wasp had a very short production run of just two years

between 1934 and 1935 and it is believed that only twelve remain in running

order. This Wasp, which is attractively finished in green over black body work

with a green leather interior, is powered by the 1069cc four cylinder engine driven

through a four speed gearbox and has been in the current ownership for

approximately 25 years. A body off rebuild was undertaken 22 years ago and the

car has been maintained as necessary since. PV 2677 has completed several tours

and rallies since the restoration and has taken many a bride to her wedding. The

history file contains numerous old MOTs, receipts and restoration history. This

Wolseley Wasp now offers the next owner a much rarer alternative to the

contemporary Austin Seven or Morris Eight. V5C, ***MOT to August 2011,

169 A 1996 Rover Mini Cooper 35 Anniversary Limited Edition, registration number

P24 FNC, chassis number SAXXNNAYCBD130601, engine number

12A2EJ66338609. The iconic Mini Cooper won the Monte Carlo Rally on three

occasions during the swinging sixties, driven by Paddy Hopkirk in 1964, Timo

Makinen in 1965 and Rauno A Altonen and Henry Linddon in 1967. This one

registered keeper Cooper has only travelled 19 miles from new and is finished in

almond green with a white roof with porcelain green leather interior. It further

benefits from having a walnut dashboard, grey Minilite style wheels and a row of

four spotlights for that authentic rally look. The history file contains the original

bill of sale for £8,395, original sales brochure and V5C. For the Mini enthusiast

this surely must be a once in a lifetime opportunity to buy a delivery mileage Mini

Cooper. V5C, no current MOT or tax due to lack of road use. See illustrations

170 A 1989 Lancia Delta Integrale 16V Turbo, registration number G785 SGK,

chassis number ZLA831AB000482053, engine number 83105, metallic grey. The

Delta range was first introduced to the United Kingdom in 1980 and remained

virtually unchanged until 1986, when small changes were made to the cars body

shape, the engines were updated and the four wheel drive model was introduced.

While the majority of Delta models were ordinary small family saloons, the most

famous model was the Delta Integrale, a four wheel drive hot hatch with a

powerful turbo charged engine. A tweaked version of the Delta HF dominated the

World Rally Championship, scoring 46 WRC victories overall and winning the

Constructors Championship a record six times in a row from 1987 to 1992, and

additionally winning the Drivers Championship titles for Juha Kankkunen (1987

and 1991) and Miki Biasion (1988 and 1989). This left hand drive 2 litre 16 valve

turbo charged 200 bhp Integrale was imported from Italy in 1997. It is finished in

metallic grey with original Recaro seats trimmed in grey Alcantara. It further

benefits from having four wheel drive, a five speed gearbox, electric windows, an

ABS braking system and power assisted steering. The three owners have lavished

a great deal of care and attention on the car including a reconditioned gearbox

with new synchromesh on second and third gears, a new clutch, clutch master and

slave cylinder, all belts, water pump, turbo charger, brake bias valve, oil

temperature and pressure sensors, new tyres, new suspension rings, new stainless

steel exhaust, Brembo brakes and re-upholstering of the door cards, front seats

and head lining. There is a good history file accompanying the car including

handbooks, maintenance and restoration receipts. The Delta Integrale is a real

drivers car which had a top speed of 137 mph and a 0-60 time of 5.5 seconds

when new, these figures are impressive even by today's standards and the new

owner will no doubt relish the prospects of using the performance to the full.

174 A 1967 MG B GT, registration number KLJ 408E, chassis number

GHD3/124512, engine number 18GBUH-77328, red. The evergreen MG B

Newton made its debut at the 1962 British Motor Show and has been part of the

British motoring scene ever since. The stylish GT Mini Grand Tourer joined the

Roadster in October 1965 and was christened the poor man's Aston Martin by the

press. KLJ 408E, a Dorset registered car, has a black leather interior with

contrasting red piping, a wood rim steering wheel, a glass sunroof for those sunny

days, a non overdrive four speed gearbox and stands on correct period steel

wheels with chrome trims. This MG B GT has been well maintained over the

years, having received general maintenance and restoration, including an engine

rebuild incorporating a desirable unleaded cylinder head by the well known MG

specialist Mike Rolls. The history file contains old MOTs, various maintenance

and restoration bills, including the aforementioned engine rebuild. The vendor

informs us that the MG has been very reliable during his ownership and has been

used on a regular basis. V5C, ***MOT to July 2011***, tax exempt ***(taxed to

175 A 1998 TVR Chimaera, registration number R385 BLA. This Chimaera is

finished in green with a full leather tan interior. The TVR Chimaera was thought

of as the new Austin Healey 3000 on its launch in 1992. The vehicle comes with a

comprehensive history supporting a mileage of under 63,000. V5C, ***no MOT

176 A 1968 MG C Roadster, registration number OJN 145F, chassis number

GCN12155G, engine number 29C/UH2054, tartan red. The much maligned MG

C was launched in 1967 and had a short two year production run. It was produced

in both Roadster and GT forms and approximately 4,500 of each were

manufactured. The MG C was introduced by BMC to fill the gap left by the

outgoing Austin Healey 3000 but the MG C range never captured the hearts' of

the enthusiasts in the same way as the large Healeys. The period press were very

scathing of the handling with its understeer caused by the heavy three litre straight

six engine. The MG C Roadster offered for auction has a black leather interior

with contrasting red piping, a black double duck hood and a tonneau cover. The

engine and running gear has received some performance and restoration work,

including an unleaded cylinder head, a Downton Tune six branch manifold, a

front suspension rebuild incorporated MG motor-sport components with negative

camber and polybushes. The history file contains old MOTs, service and

restoration bills, with a recent receipt from Sigma Engineering for an engine tune

in September 2010. This well sorted MG C Roadster should now offer the next

owner a good alternative to an Austin Healey 3000, and the owner informs us that

it has been very reliable on numerous tours during his ownership. V5C, MOT to

177 A 1970 Ford Escort 1300 Super four door saloon, registration number GOO

220H, chassis number BB5PJK29407, red. Ford's Escort was an instant hit when

it became available in 1968 and was destined to be Britain's best selling car for

many years. It was available in various body styles and engine capacities to suit

all needs. The Escort also had an illustrious competition history winning

numerous rally and track events, including the World Rally Championship. This

very original four door saloon finished in dark red with a contrasting maroon

interior was delivered on the 11th March 1970 to Gates of Harlow-Essex where it

was collected by the new owner. Over the next 32 years the meticulous new

owner maintained a petrol log recording mileage and price per gallon. The

current mileage of approximately 79,000 is supported by a history file, which

contains the original bill of sale, old MOTs, service receipts and a workshop

manual. The vendor informs us that the Escort's shell is rust free and after a

service and light recommissioning, having spent a few years in storage, is running

well and on our recent visit the Escort started readily and ran smoothly. Early

Escorts are now becoming an increasingly rare sight on today's roads and such an

original and unmolested example would be a worthy addition to any Ford

collection. V5C, MOT to June 2011, tax exempt See illustrations £3200.00

178 A 1958 Austin A105 Westminster Vanden Plas, registration number 32 CHU,

chassis number B58HC056814, cream with maroon roof and flashes. The Austin

A105 had a short production run of only three years between 1956-59 and the

luxury Vanden Plas version was very rare indeed. Only 500 examples were

produced and it is believed there are only five running examples on the road

today. The car is powered by the same engine as used in the Austin Healey 100/6

mated to a floor change four speed gearbox with overdrive on third and fourth

gears. This endowed the model with a fair turn of speed, with the 0 - 60 mph dash

achieved in a fraction over 15 seconds and going on to a top speed just short of

100 mph when new. The A105 was the first mass-produced Austin model to

receive Vanden Plas luxury leather and walnut interiors and coachwork

refinements and for this reason is historically significant within the British motor

industry. To reinforce the importance and status of the A105 Vanden Plas,

Leonard Lord, the managing director of Austin, took delivery of the first

production car for his personal transport. 32 CHU has been with the current

Somerset owner since 1968 and during his ownership of over 40 years he has

maintained the car to a high standard and rebuilt the engine, gearbox and back

axle. She has been finished in a striking colour scheme of cream and maroon,

complimented by beautifully preserved tan leather upholstery, a walnut dashboard

and door cappings, a West of England cloth headlining and fawn Wilton carpets.

Accompanying the car are useful new and old spares, including front wings, a

back valance, a new front cross member, new weather strips and numerous other

increasingly hard to find items. There is a good history file from the 1960s to the

present day with old MOTs, numerous service and maintenance receipts and

handbooks. The vendor in forms us that 32 CHU is on the button, will be driven

to the auction and will be ready for the next owner to enjoy. V5C, MOT to April

179 A 1974 Austin 1300 Princess Vanden Plas, registration number RRU 136N,

chassis number YA5239797-H, engine number 12H740W1789, maroon. This

charming one lady owner, who is a member of the Vanden Plas Owners Club, was

purchased for her from Wadham Stringer in Bournemouth, Dorset by her husband

in March 1974 and she has been the proud owner ever since. RRU 136N is a well

known car in the Blandford Forum area of Dorset where she has been an everyday

sight on local roads for over 40 years. In recent years she has lived a more sedate

life only covering a few hundred miles each year on local shopping trips and

attending classic car shows . The maroon coachwork is complimented by dark

blue leather upholstery, a beige roof lining and the usual luxurious Vanden Plas

refinements of a walnut dashboard and door cappings, rear picnic tables (for those

days at the races!) and black Wilton carpets. The history file is very

comprehensive as one would expect for a one lady owner car, with the original

bill of sale, original owner's handbook, a good run of old MOTs, service receipts

and correspondence. Accompanying the car is a large quantity of useful spares

amassed by the vendor's husband, including two windscreens, doors, an engine

block, chrome trims and numerous other items. The vendor informs us that her

pride and joy has been very reliable and a pleasure to drive during her ownership

and she hopes the next owner will cherish it and have as much pleasure driving

her as she has. ***V5C***, MOT to April 2011, taxed to April 2011 See

180 A 1968 Jaguar 240, registration number TAB 16F, chassis number 152131DN,

engine number 7J2361-8, British Racing Green. Jaguars 240 and 340 were the

last throw of the dice for their compact saloon models, which were first seen in

1955 with the Mk I and subsequently metamorphisised into the Mk II from 1959.

TAB 16F has benefited from a substantial rebuild in recent years, including a bare

metal repaint in British Racing Green (photographs on file), new carpets, a re-

polished dashboard and door cappings, re-chromed bumpers, a new clutch and

flywheel and numerous other service items. The interior is finished in black

ambla, there is a four speed gearbox with overdrive fitted and she sits on steel

wheels with chrome embellishers. The history file contains maintenance and

restoration receipts, old MOTs, photographs of the bodywork restoration and a

photocopy of a previous V5. TAB 16F is now ready for the next custodian to

181 A 1986 Porsche 944 Turbo, registration number GVU 45D, chassis number

WPOZZZ952GN102051, engine number 45GO7882, white. Porsche introduced

the 944 in 1982 with a four cylinder 2.5 litre engine, the Turbo version arrived in

1985 with 220 bhp, a 0 - 60 mph time of six seconds and a top speed of 145 mph

when new. GVU 45D was supplied by Glen Henderson Motors of Glasgow

(official Porsche centre) and has a full service history to verify the mileage of

approximately 70,000 miles. Finished in white with a black half leather interior, a

five speed gearbox, electric windows, mirrors, steel sunroof and driver's seat, air

conditioning and a six CD auto changer. The history file contains the original

service book with 14 stamps, owners handbook, old MOTs, service receipts and

Hartech Automotive 944 Buyers' Guide. Porsche 944's make excellent everyday

classic cars, with their fully galvanized bodies and dependable Porsche

mechanical reliability. GVU 45D is no exception especially with the added peace

of mind a full service history gives. V5C, ***MOT to July 2011***, tax to July

182 A 1962 Triumph TR4, registration number TSD 749, chassis number CT258,

engine number CT372E, red. The TR family of sports cars was launched in 1953

with the TR2, powered by the standard Vanguard engine tuned to 90 bhp,

followed by the TR3 and TR3A. In 1961 Triumph unveiled the new TR4 with its

sharp Italian style body, designed by Michelotti. TSD 749, a matching numbers

TR4, has been in the current ownership since 1987 and prior to that the car had

been in dry storage for the previous 15 years. Finished in red with white piped

black vinyl seats and with a wood rim steering wheel, which compliments the

interior, and a Heron hard top keeps out the winter weather. For summer

motoring a soft top and full tonneau are provided. The vendor has maintained the

TR4 to a high standard replacing and restoring components as necessary, included

de-coking the engine, rebuilding the four speed gearbox, back axle and stove

enamelling the wire wheels in white. There is a comprehensive service history

from the date of purchase in 1987 with receipts, old MOTs and a service record

itemising all expenditure and maintenance. A vast quantity of spares will also

accompany the car and will include a complete Gold Seal engine, a cylinder head,

a gearbox, a pair of Solex carburetters and linkage, a front grill, a fuel tank and

sender unit, a bonnet, a windscreen, a near side door, a steering rack and

numerous other useful and hard to obtain items (full list available). With a

current MOT and tax TSD 749 is ready for immediate use, and with the spares

offered with the car should make a viable proposition for many years to come.

183 A 1972 Jaguar E-Type Series III V12 coupé, registration number HYB 70K,

chassis number 1S60897, engine number 7S5439-SB, gearbox number KL2354,

body number 4S53389, ice blue metallic. The legendary E-Type was launched at

the 1961 Geneva Motor Show to rapturous applause and was to become an iconic

symbol of the swinging sixties. Initially available in coupé and roadster forms,

there would eventually be a long wheel base 2+2 coupé version. The Series I cars

had the 3.8 litre engine as used in the XK150, which was subsequently increased

in capacity to 4.2 litres for the Series II and finally the Series III had the all new

V12 engine. Both the Series III roadster and 2+2 coupé incorporated the long

wheel base chassis. This beautifully stored low mileage matching numbers

manual 2+2 coupé has just emerged from a bare shell rebuild and is believed to

have covered only 4,904 miles from new with four owners. The first owner, a

Commander from Yeovilton, Somerset, used this car very sparingly possible due

to his commitments to the armed forces, the second and third owners were a

father and son and the current owner who has rebuilt the car. During the

restoration, which was extensive, the decision was taken to change the original

maroon paint work to ice blue metallic, which has to be said, suits the car very

well. Before the paint was applied both near and off side sills and the passenger

side door skin were replaced with Martin Robey supplied parts. The interior has

been retrimmed by Larry Piper in cream leather with contrasting dark blue

carpets, a new head lining, the Webasto style sunroof was replaced in blue double

duck and the period radio was restored and has been retained. The same attention

to detail has been lavished on the running gear with new brake calipers and

copper brake pipes, clutch and pressure plate, new shock absorbers (Spax

adjustables at the rear), new bushes all round, rebuilt rear axle, detailed engine

and numerous other parts associated with a bare metal shell rebuild. All the

bright work has been replated or polished, which compliments the new paint

work. All of this hard work has cost approximately £27,000 (not including labour)

and took six months to complete. This being the 50th anniversary of the E-Type,

with several large celebrations planned throughout the year, HYB 70K would be

welcomed at any of them and would surely make any owner very proud. The

history file contains a photographic record of the restoration from the initial strip

down through each stage of preparation to the completed car, old MOTS, some

maintenance, service and restoration receipts, owners handbook and a V5. V5C,

the E-Type. Finished in attractive metallic maroon with a grey leather interior

with red piping and the usual refinements of automatic transmission, electric

windows, mirrors, cruise control, climate control, power assisted steering, stereo

radio cassette and maple veneer dash and door cappings. A good history file with

186 EXTRA LOT: A 1933 Lagonda 16/80 four door pillar-less saloon, with restored

chassis, engine and running gear, and original body and interior. The Lagonda

16/80 was first introduced in 1932, replacing the company's 4 cylinder 2 litre

model. The first part of its name referred to its fiscal horsepower rating of 16

(actually 15.7). Under naming conventions common at the time the second

number in its name might have referred to the cars bhp. However actual power

output fell a long way short of 80 bhp, leading many to think it may have referred

to the cars claimed top speed of 80 mph. The car was unusual in being the only

Lagonda to be offered with a Crossley engine. However each engine purchased

was stripped down by Lagonda, examined and weighed before being re-

assembled and bench run prior to fitment to the chassis. The Lagonda engineers

extracted more power from these engines as well as improving the cooling and

breathing qualities and issued each unit with a nine year guarantee. Available

with saloon and touring bodies, the 16/80 could be ordered with conventional four

speed manual or ENV pre-selector gearbox, enabling swift and easy changes.

Approximately 260 were made, around half of which are believed to have

survived. The car was dropped from Lagonda's range of cars shortly before the

firms dramatic rescue from financial collapse by Alan Good at the end of 1934.

This car, produced in 1933, is a sports original pillar-less saloon coachwork and

was owned by one family for the last fifty years. It was used as everyday

transport for many years until it was felt that the car deserved a face lift and was

therefore taken off the road in 1978, the last tax disc still being displayed in the

windscreen. The owner embarked on a full rebuild over the past thirty years but

sadly did not complete the task. We have been advised that he finished the

mechanicals and the engine runs well and the car drives. It appears that a couple

of doors have been re-skinned, the body is coach painted in black, with the upper

half leather covered. Much of the original cream leather is present, but detached

and most of the interior fittings are with the car. The dashboard is complete with

a full set of instruments and cigar lighter. This is an exciting discovery which

runs and drives well and is an opportunity to complete a car that deserves a return

to the road. £24000.00

187 A 1971 Rolls Royce Silver Shadow Mk I, registration number PRK 256K, chassis

number SRH11453, engine number 11453, white. The Silver Shadow was

launched in October 1965 and had the all new monocoque body and a V8 engine

first seen in the Silver Cloud II. PRK 256K, which was supplied by Jack Barclay,

has been with the current owner since 2004 and has been used as part of a

wedding car fleet. Finished in the traditional colour scheme of white coachwork

with a cream leather and walnut interior. Other luxury fitments include power

assisted steering, automatic transmission, electric windows and seats. These Rolls

Royces represent great value in today's market and this example also offers the

next owner a business opportunity with wedding hire to offset some of the

running costs. V5C, MOT to October 2011, ***taxed to September 2011*** See

189 A 1977 Daimler XJC Sovereign Coupé, registration number PHP 704R, Regency

red with a black vinyl roof. The XJC was first shown to the general public at the

Frankfurt Motor Show in 1973 alongside the revised Series 2 Model range. The

XJC incorporated the short wheelbase floor pan, with longer doors and a slightly

longer roof line, but was otherwise fundamentally the same as the four door

saloon. The XJC did not go into full production until 1975 because of production

problems associated with wind noise caused by the pillarless design. All XJC

models featured the fashionable vinyl roof which helped to disguise the thickness

of the C pillars. Only 1,677 coupés were manufactured in the two year production

run and are very sought after today. PHP 704R comes from a deceased estate and

was owned for 23 years. For the last two years of ownership the Daimler was not

used and a program of recommissioning has taken place to obtain a new MOT.

This included a full service, new battery, new correct Dunlop tyres and front and

rear screen rubbers. The history file contains history from 1985 and

documentation to verify the recorded mileage. Finished in the original colour

scheme of Regency Red with a black vinyl roof, with a tan leather interior and

automatic transmission. After the recommissioning work the car is said to run

very well. V5C, MOT to January 2012, no current tax See illustrations

190 WITHDRAWN: A 1972 Triumph TR6, registration number AYA 97K, chassis

number CC83086U, engine number CC83363UE, damson. This original left

hand drive TR6 rolled off the production line on 13th June 1972 and was exported

to America on the 22nd of that month. It returned to these shores in the late

1980s and was restored and converted to right hand drive by TRGB in

approximately 1990. This SU carburetter fed engineered car is finished in

damson with black interior. The original seats have been replaced with Mazda

MX6 seats and the engine had new main bearings fitted three thousand miles ago
