Welcome to Silverstone Circuit for our first auction
of the year at our spiritual home, and the first of our
season of summer sales.
More than 70 of the finest cars available on the
market are here to be sold today, some in a public
sale for the very first time.
Of particular note is the number of low-mileage,
original UK-supplied, right-hand drive cars on offer
from the likes of Aston Martin, Ferrari, Porsche and
Jaguar. The selection of cars here today truly fits our
philosophy of only offering the very ‘best-of-breed’
cars for collectors and buyers.
I certainly believe that the catalogue is testament
to the strength of the current classic car market, as
well as the skill of the Silverstone Auctions team in
bringing such special cars to market.
With a collection of such quality going under the
hammer, please do not hesitate to talk to a member
of our team if you require any assistance in securing
your dream car.
It’s not long before we return to this fantastic venue
to host our flagship auction of the year, three days of
sales as part of the world famous Silverstone Classic,
from 27th to 30th July. Then, in September, we return
to the stunning surroundings of Blenheim Palace to
host a very special sale at Salon Privé on the 2nd
September.
Entries are now being invited into these auctions, so
if you have a car you’d like to enter, feel free to speak
to one of our highly experienced car consignors about
your particular requirements.
Finally, I would like to say thank you for attending
today’s sale and I look forward to seeing you again at
one of our forthcoming auctions. Good luck and enjoy
your day.
Happy bidding!

The Bentley Arnage was launched in 1998, replacing the Bentley
‘Turbo’, which had offered sterling service for many years. Built by
Bentley Motors in Crewe, from 1998 to 2009, the Arnage and its
Rolls-Royce sibling, the Silver Seraph, were introduced in the spring
of 1998 and were the first entirely new designs for the two marques
since 1980 when the Silver Spirit and Mulsanne models had been
introduced. The new Arnage was designed to be powered by a new
state-of-the-art BMW V8 engine with Cosworth-engineered twin-
turbochargers and was designated the Arnage ‘Green Label’. The
Arnage ‘Red Label’ was launched in October 1999, and for a number
of reasons, reverted to Bentley power using the traditional V8 engine
with a displacement of 6,750cc.
We’re pleased to offer this beautiful Arnage Red Label from the
year 2000 in the unusual colour combination of Silver Tempest, a
businesslike and purposeful exterior if ever there was one, with a
fabulously indulgent interior in Cream and Mulberry.
These commanding cars offer an unprecedented level of comfort
and effortlessly cover the miles in the most comfortable of settings,
turning every journey into an occasion. This luxurious carriage
has covered just 67,000 miles, ageing gracefully throughout, and
appears to have been particularly well cared for.

There are one or two known faults with the car, which a new
custodian may well choose to deal with immediately, but neither of
them detract from the way this car drives or performs. The central
locking is not working, the sunroof is a little temperamental and
the air conditioning lacks a bit of ‘oomph’; not major problems in
the scheme of things, and otherwise, the car is really very good.
A service would bring the records up-to-date and the car is in
possession of a current MOT certificate until August 2017. Should
you ever be stranded, the distinctive registration number, M999 HLP,
would surely bring immediate assistance.
Our vendor has opted to offer this stylish Bentley at ‘No Reserve’
and this may well prove to be the bargain of the day!

Porsche’s long-running and much-loved 911 sports car first
appeared at the 1963 Frankfurt Show as the ‘901’, but shortly after
production proper commenced in 1964, had become the ‘911’
following Peugeot’s complaints about the use of ‘0’ model numbers.
The preceding Type 356’s rear-engined layout was retained, but
the 911 switched to unitary construction for the bodyshell and
dropped the 356’s VW-based suspension in favour of a more modern
McPherson strut and trailing arm arrangement.
In its first incarnation, Porsche’s single-overhead-camshaft, air-
cooled flat-six engine displaced 1,991cc. The first of countless
upgrades to the perennial 911 came in 1966, two years after
production had commenced, with the introduction of the 911S and
in 1967 the 911T (Touring) was introduced as a new 2.0-litre model.
Further revisions were made in 1969 when the 911’s wheelbase had
been extended by 57mm.
Finished in its original colour of Sepia Brown, this 1973 911 ‘T’ with
CIS injection was imported from the USA in 2013 by our vendor
to join his significant private collection. We are informed this car
only had one owner whilst in the USA before joining our vendor’s
collection and the car is now UK-registered.
Accompanying the vehicle is the original Bill of Sale, which details
options fitted to the car when ordered new. A handbook is also
present, along with the original manual for the optional Blaupunkt
radio fitted from new, and a Porsche ‘Certificate of Authenticity’.
There is also a large history file with the car and workshop manuals
containing details of any work carried out over the years, mostly
handwritten by the original owner covering the issue, parts used and
the solution. There are also some records detailing fuel consumption
on various journeys over the years, perhaps showing just how
fastidious the previous owner was.
The car still retains its ‘US-Spec’ over riders, front and rear and
the ‘S’ trim, which we are informed was optioned from the factory.
Whilst there have been little bits of paintwork over the years the car
looks to be in good overall condition. The interior is reported to be in
good order throughout and looks to be broadly original.
Sensibly guided, this is a fantastic proposition for an astute buyer.

The Coupé incarnation of Jaguar’s ground-breaking XJ saloon didn’t
peek from showrooms until 1975, although it had been announced
publicly rather earlier, back at the 1973 London Show. Its original
design dated from even earlier still as it was developed alongside the
original Series 1 XJ back in the late 60s and in fact, the company
even issued project numbers for the Series 1 Coupés - XJ33 for the
six-cylinder and XJ34 for the V12 - although they were destined never
to be produced. Instead, the car was launched in Series 2 form known
as XJ35 and XJ36 respectively. However, a combination of Sir William
Lyons’ frequent tweaking of the design and engineering ‘issues’ with
the roof panel and side windows meant that it was early 1975 before
the first XJCs would glide stylishly out of Jaguar Showrooms.
The Coupé was based on the short wheelbase version of the XJ and
offered in 4.2 and 5.3 engine sizes known as either the ‘Sovereign’
from Jaguar or the ‘Double Six’ from Daimler. In 1978, just 329 Jaguar
XJ12 5.3 Coupés were built by the factory, making this particular car a
very rare production model. In fact, only 1,800 were ever made by the
factory in total.
PEJ 44S was first registered on the 8th of March, 1988 and was
purchased from British Leyland dealers, Meirion Motors of Aberystwyth
by a Mr J. March from Bridgnorth. It was finished in the lovely colour
combination of Squadron Blue with a Mid-Blue velour interior. The
car is accompanied by its original ‘Passport to Service’, which
shows regular visits to the main dealer with ten stamps in the book,
culminating with the entry on 02/03/88 indicating that it was serviced
at 51,923 miles. On 15/06/88, after 10 years of sterling service,
the car was sold to John McGee of Braintree who was to own it until
February 2016, when it was acquired by its current keeper. There is an
invoice in the file from November 2016 listing a number of minor items
that were attended to in order to bring the car up to scratch. These
included; work on the radio and aerial, track-rod gaiters, door seals,
attending to minor leaks, rectifying the horn, work to the exhaust and
some external detailing, badges etc.
These Coupés are elegant motor cars and PEJ 44S is no exception.
The paintwork looks generally good with a little attention required here
and there, and the chrome and brightwork look excellent. The car is
fitted with a sporty, leather-rim, Moto-Lita steering wheel and a period
Sharp cassette player and the interior looks comfortable and in good
order. The engine bay on these V12 cars can be a bit of a nightmare,
however this one looks particularly tidy and well cared for. The book
pack contains the original service records, sundry invoices, manuals
(including radio), and a spare key.
This is a presentable and usable XJ12C in a very attractive colour, and
with these rare coupés continuing to perform well in the collector’s
market, this handsome example merits serious consideration.

The 3.2 Carrera is revered as the ultimate development of the
original 911 that first appeared in 1963. Launched in 1984, and
reviving the ‘Carrera’ name for the first time since 1977, these were
the ultimate 1980s sports cars.
The all-alloy, flat-6 engine received a final stretch to 3,164cc, giving
a torque-rich 231bhp - enough to propel the lithe coupé to over
150mph, with 0-60mph coming up in 5.6 seconds. Cars built from
September 1986 onwards were fitted with the more user-friendly
G50 ‘Getrag’ gearbox, but all 3.2 Carreras feature galvanised bodies,
which together with Porsche’s legendary build quality, ensure that
these classics are long-lasting.
The car presented here is a UK-supplied (C16), right-hand drive
1988 Porsche 911 3.2 Carrera Sport Coupé. This matching-numbers
example has been with its current owner since 2005 and was bought
from a Porsche Club GB member. It comes with an impressive
history file containing an original and fully stamped-up service book
plus 16 MOT test certificates that help verify a current mileage
of 104,000 miles. Reassuringly, amongst a wealth of invoices for
servicing and maintenance, there is one for a top-engine re-build and
clutch replacement from March 2015 (at 101,309 miles) carried out
by a former Porsche technician at a cost of £5,659.23.
The car was delivered new on the 2nd August 1988 via Merlin
Porsche of Chesterfield to a Sheffield-based customer. It went back
to their workshops for servicing at the correct intervals from 1,275
miles to 31,461 miles, and later at Merlin Porsche of Cardiff up to
61,464 miles. The further 15 stamps are from a local firm where our
vendor entrusted a former Porsche-trained technician to work on his
beloved car.
Finished in the rare paint colour of Metallic Blue Marine (35V),
complemented by a full cream leather interior, it is a standard
factory ‘Sport’ model with Fuchs alloy wheels, front and rear
spoilers, electric pack and a sunroof. Special-order elements include
Sport seats (383 & 387) and Sport shock absorbers (474).
This car has obviously been well-maintained and presents, both
mechanically and cosmetically, in very good condition. Small details
like two sets of keys, factory stickers still in situ, an original sales
brochure and a complete Porsche tool-roll / jack help support this
dutiful ownership.

The May Sale 2017
Many saw the TR6 as the last of a breed of hairy-chested British
sports cars; more than 94,000 TR6 models were built, ninety per
cent of them to US specification.
This Triumph TR6 is an original UK right-hand drive car supplied
new on 4th February 1973 through Wadham Stringer Ltd of
Portsmouth and finished in New White with a black interior. Factory
fitted equipment at that time included overdrive, a heater and
seatbelts. The majority of the history of the car is unknown, however
in 2013, it was purchased by a British ex-pat living in France by the
name of Mr Andrew Clemmit, who embarked on a total restoration
of the vehicle, which was completed in 2015.
A photographic record of the restoration shows the body was
separated from the chassis, with all rust and rot replaced where
necessary and new panels sought. The chassis was reinforced
and wax oiled, and polyurethane bushes were fitted before the
suspension was reassembled utilising Koni shock absorbers on the
rear. The engine was rebuilt with new bearings, pistons and piston
rings and a desirable unleaded cylinder head fitted with the unit
married up to a J-type overdrive gearbox. A new stainless steel
sports exhaust with the recognisable twin-tailpipes ensures this car
has that TR6 burble.
A new wiring loom was fitted along with a heater matrix, new
carpets, retrimmed seats and a new mohair hood and hood cover,
ensuring that all occupants remain warm and dry in this British
classic. The car is now riding on Minilite-style wheels, giving it a
more aggressive stance.
Accompanying the car is a folder full of bills for many of the parts
ordered, predominantly from well-respected supplier Moss. A UK
V5C and an MOT certificate until 29th August 2017 are present,
along with a book showing photographs of the car during its
restoration. All the hard graft has been done and the result is simply
beautiful. You would struggle to find another home-market TR6 in
this condition and we urge you to snap this one up right in time for
summer classic motoring.

Produced between 1985 and 1989, the 328 was the successor to
the 308 and was available as a coupé (GTB) or a Targa Top (GTS).
It featured the transverse V8 from the 308, albeit now in 3.2 form,
with four valves per cylinder, a five-speed gearbox and 275bhp on
tap. This resulted in 0-60mph in 5.5 seconds and a top speed of
over 166mph.
This car is an original, right-hand drive, 1989 model, which was
supplied new to the UK and has covered just 5,600 miles. Whilst not
completely substantiated, there are some previous MOT certificates
from 1994 to 2003 that help support the current mileage, along
with a condition report from marque specialists, Terry Keys
Motorsport.
The second keeper was a Mr Stuart Duncan Williams of SDW
Services in Dorking. He acquired the car from its first owner in
March 1990 and the current lady owner purchased this 328 on 26th
March 1994, with a mileage reading of 4,300 miles. Since then, it
has been stored in a heated garage and has covered nominal miles
since. The vendor states that it’s had regular oil and fluid changes
during her ownership.
In January 2017, it was decided that the car was to be sold.
Consequently, it was sent to Terry Keys at Silverstone for a full cam
belt service, MOT test and thorough recommissioning. The car is
now looking superb and the aforementioned condition report is
available to prospective bidders prior to the auction.
Finished in Rosso Corsa with a Nero interior, we welcome pre-sale
inspections on this fabulous Ferrari 328 GTS and encourage buyers
to contact the office for further details.

The May Sale 2017
The first-generation Porsche Boxster (the 986) was introduced in
late 1996 and the design was obviously heavily influenced by the
1993 ‘Boxster Concept’ design exercise. Interestingly, the Boxster
was Porsche’s first road car to be originally designed as a ‘roadster’
since the 550 Spyder in the fifties. In November 2007, Porsche
announced a Limited Edition Boxster RS60 Spyder to commemorate
the company’s legendary win in the 1960 12 Hours of Sebring
when Hans Hermann and Olivier Gendebien, in their silver 718
RS60 Spyder, took on and defeated much larger and more powerful
competition.
The RS60 was designed to pay homage to the 1960 Sebring car and
they were finished in an exclusive GT Silver Metallic with a Carrera
Red interior. It was fitted with stainless steel door entry guards, a
bespoke gear lever, and special surface texture in the centre sections
of the sports seats, the centre door linings as well as on the steering
wheel rim and handbrake lever. The instrument cluster cover was
removed, prominently displaying the GT Silver Metallic instruments
that had been set wider apart and the interior was nicely set off
by a silver centre console and silver seatbelts. Modifications to the
exhaust flow coupled with a dual tailpipe sports exhaust system
increased engine output to 303bhp. Externally, the RS60 differed
slightly with a wider stance on its Porsche Sport Design wheels, a
black windscreen frame and red tail light lenses. Only 1,960 units
in this series were produced worldwide with each model bearing a
numbered production badge.
This, UK right-hand drive, limited edition, Porsche Boxster RS60
has only covered 14,000 miles in the hands of its four owners
since being delivered in 2009. Our vendor informs us that it has
been maintained primarily by Porsche main dealers until 2015
and subsequently, under his ownership, has been looked after
by established Porsche specialists Zentrum, in Nottinghamshire.
Supplied with an MOT certificate until November 2017, this is a fine
example of a rare model. At this mileage, it’s barely been run in and
offers many more miles of fun in the sun.

Only 233 right-hand drive, GTS ‘Quattrovalve’ models were produced
and they are considered by many to be the most desirable of all the
308 variations. They are certainly the fastest and arguably more
subtly styled with a deep front valance, racing mirrors, and short
lightweight bumpers.
This 308 GTS QV was delivered new to Maranello Concessionaires,
Surrey on 8th March 1985 and was ordered in the rare colour
combination of Metallic Blue Chiaro with a white leather interior
piped in blue. Factory options included a deep front spoiler and air
conditioning. However, its first owner was rather disappointed in
the Ferrari’s power output. The somewhat unorthodox solution was
for Nigel Hudson, then at Nigel Mansell’s Ferrari main dealership
network Emblem Sports Cars, to engineer and squeeze a brand-new
Ferrari 400 series V12 engine into the bay. This work was carried out
to a very high standard and was completed in the late 1980s.
The results are quite astonishing. The 4.8-litre, 4-cam, Ferrari V12 is
known affectionately as ‘Nigel’s Flyer’ and must be seen to be fully
appreciated. This example is one of just four known 308s worldwide
that boast a V12 Ferrari engine.
The current owner found the car in 2013, following a 10-year stint
in dry-storage, and he entrusted it to the very man that originally
converted it. Nigel Hudson, now under his own name, began a two-
year, no expense spared, re-commissioning. The engine, gearbox,
brakes and suspension were all taken apart and inspected by Nigel.
New parts were fitted where necessary and according to the vendor,
“the car drives beautifully”. The leather interior and carpets were left
original and unrestored.
The finished product is something very special indeed. Included in
the sale are the original books, manuals, unused jack, tool kit and
a decent history file. There are eight previous MOT certificates, six
stamps in the service book and bills and receipts from Nigel Hudson
for all recent works.
Silverstone Auctions always enjoy a car that represents something
slightly different or left field. This 308 V12 offers its next owner
exclusivity, classic 80s styling, and lots of power. We welcome pre-
sale inspections and encourage prospective bidders to contact the
office for further details.

The 356 is acknowledged as Porsche’s first venture into production
and was a lightweight and nimble rear engined, rear-wheel drive,
two-door sporting car available in hardtop coupé and open
configurations. Engineering and design innovations continued during
the years of manufacture, contributing to its motorsports success
and its popularity as a road car.
The model was created by Ferdinand ‘Ferry’ Porsche (son of Dr.
Ing. Ferdinand Porsche, founder of the company), based on an
original design by Porsche employee Erwin Komenda, and initially
its mechanicals (including engine, suspension, and chassis) were
derived from the basic Volkswagen Beetle, a product of his father’s
fertile imagination.
Porsche continued to develop and refine the 356 with a focus on
performance, and by the late 1950s fewer parts were shared with
its pedestrian cousin, and increasing success in competition and
its availability worldwide resulted in the distinctive little car, in all
its iterations, finding over 76,000 homes between 1948 and 1966.
Today, the Porsche 356 is a highly regarded collector’s car.
Having never been publicly offered in its 56 years, we are delighted
to be able to bring to market for the first time ever, this original
right-hand drive 1961 Porsche 356B T5 Cabriolet. According to
the Porsche Certificate of Authenticity that accompanies the file,
Chassis #155510 was ordered through Porsche Schultz, Dusseldorf
and was finished in Light Ivory with a red leather interior. This car
was ordered by, and first registered to, a G. A. Sinsteden on 3rd
August 1961 as shown in the original German vehicle registration
document - the ‘Kraftfahrzeugbrief’, which is included in the sale.
Soon after taking delivery of chassis #155510, Mr Sinsteden
wanted to move to Ireland and reside in Dublin, and so his friend,
a Mr Joseph Kiernan, a well-respected solicitor in his own right,
was called upon to help facilitate the move. Between them, the pair
agreed that if a suitable residence was found, that this Porsche
would be taken as payment to Mr Kiernan for taking care of his
friend’s legal affairs. A residence in the affluent area of Killiney,
Dublin in was finally bought and so the keys to this 356B cabriolet
were handed over to Mr Kiernan in 1965, although a letter in the file
from 1974 shows the sale officially being completed in the August
of that year.
Mr Kiernan was to keep the car until his untimely passing, after
which time ownership transferred to his wife who appears in the
‘buff’ log book in August 1986. A move to the Canary Islands in
Spain in 1988 for Mrs Kiernan meant that the car would go on to
spend the next 12 years of its life in a very dry climate with minimal
use, partially explaining its current condition.
In 2000 our vendor, the son of Mr Joseph Kiernan, purchased the
car from his mother and it was brought back to its spiritual home in
Dublin in December of that year. A dealer principal at a BMW main
dealership at that time, our vendor was able to recommission the
car using his workshop team and many parts ordered from Porsche
specialist Roger Bray, for which there are numerous invoices in the
file. Later that year it was decided that the car would benefit from
a respray, so the glass and brightwork were taken off the car, but
crucially it was never fully dismantled. At the same time, the outer
roof mohair covering was carefully replaced, ensuring that the
original inner lining could be used once again.
In the current ownership, the car has been maintained by our vendor
himself, who has changed the oil annually regardless of mileage
along with any other jobs that have been required. Chassis #155510
has been dry stored in an inflatable car cover inside a dry garage
to continue the preservation of what is a lovely example. Sitting in
the cockpit, one gets a true sense of originality, as the red leather
seats show super patina, and the steering wheel and dashboard
instruments all look to be in great condition. This car is supplied
with its original book pack containing driver’s manuals in German
and English, an operating manual and a hardtop/cabriolet manual.
Along with the history file are also three Porsche catalogues of
spare parts. This car will arrive at the auction with a NOVA reference
number, but will need an MOT test before applying for a UK V5C.
Rarely do cars with such provenance come to market, especially
ones that have been with the same family for the last 52 years. We
are proud to offer this beautiful 356B cabriolet, which is now ready
to start the next chapter of its life.

The May Sale 2017
With Jaguar’s racing pedigree with the ‘C’ and ‘D’ types from the
1950s still fresh in people’s memories, it’s no wonder that the new
‘E’-type captured the hearts and minds of everyone at its launch,
and if all E-types aged as gracefully as the car offered here then
it’s easy to understand why that affection continues today. Built in
1965, this Series I car is fitted with the 4.2-litre powerplant, often
considered the best engine. For the 4.2, Jaguar introduced their own
all-synchromesh gearbox, derived from the occasionally recalcitrant
Moss offering, along with more comfortable seating and improved
brakes.
This gorgeous original, right-hand drive, 4.2 Series I was first
registered on 22nd July 1965 to a Mr R. Lowther-Fry. Since then, the
car has changed hands just five times in its 52-year life.
Our vendor purchased the car 26 years ago in 1991 and since that
first day and after a rather hairy drive back from collecting the car
as a result of poorly working brakes, the same local Classic Car
specialist has maintained GRA 900C until the present day with the
proprietor overseeing all work undertaken on the car.
Over the following 26 years, the car has been meticulously
maintained regardless of cost to ensure that it remains in fine
running order. This has included a gearbox rebuild in 2001 at a cost
of £2,900; the result of a broken bearing whilst on a European tour.
Bodywork has also been attended to where needed over the years,
as can been seen by bills such as the one in 2002 for rear half
bodywork repairs including work to the inner and external wings at a
cost of £4,700.
Presented with the car is a wealth of history including an impressive
number of invoices from the past 26 years of ownership, all from
the same local specialist of course. Also present is the original Buff
Logbook, the very rare original Service book/Service policy (with
stamps), the original Operating/Maintenance handbook, and a
number of old MOT certificates, the earliest of which dates to 1972.
From looking at key documentation in the history file we can see that
the car still retains its original engine and matching cylinder head
and remains finished in its original shade of Jaguar Indigo Blue.
An absolutely honest example with a lovely history and a rare find in
this day and age when every Series 1 seems to have been restored to
within an inch of its life. This cracking ‘65 4.2 has been frequently
enjoyed and lovingly maintained and cared for by the same owner for
26 years. Refreshing.

In 1989, the second series of the 944 was introduced, powered by a
210bhp normally aspirated, double-overhead-cam 16-valve 3.0-litre
version of the 944 S engine, which was the largest four-cylinder
engine in production at the time. The 944 S2 also benefitted from
a revised transmission and the gearing was tweaked to better suit
the torque and peak power characteristics of the 3.0 L M44/41
powerplant.
The S2 had the same rounded nose and a rear valance found on
the 944 Turbo model and this was the first example of the use of
an integrated front bumper, where the bumper and bonnet profiles
would merge smoothly with the valance, a design feature that has
only now seen widespread adoption on production cars from the
early nineties. In 1989, Porsche released the 944 S2 Cabriolet,
a first for the 944 line that featured a cabriolet body built by the
ASC-American Sunroof Company at Weinsberg in Germany, creating
a very good looking car with excellent dynamic qualities that was
rewarding to drive and was wellreceived by the motoring press.
This 19,000 mile, 944 S2 Cabriolet has enjoyed the sunshine with
three previous owners who were obviously fastidious and caring, as
is evident from the car’s proud stance and impressive appearance.
We are informed it has always been garaged and maintained to the
highest standards. The car’s history file contains some relevant
records and invoices in its leather wallet, including the service
manuals and records, and previous MOTs. Our vendor has recently
spent around £1,500 to ensure this lovely 944 S2 Cab is ready for
some summer fun and a fresh MOT certificate will be issued before
the sale.
Built in the last year of 944 production, there can’t be many 944
Cabriolets with mileage as low as this. The car positively shouts ‘Buy
me’ with its gleaming Crystal Silver Metallic paintwork, unmarked
midnight blue interior and hood, and its smartly polished alloys.
Inevitably, as the prices of good 911s creep ever higher, 944s, 928s,
and 968s will surely follow, so now may be as good a time as any to
join the party.

Introduced in 1989 as a replacement for the 328, the 348
production line ran until 1995, when the 355 was introduced. Late
in 1993, after 3 years of production, the 348 was revised with
subtle styling changes and a power increase from 300 to 320bhp
from its 3.4-litre V8. At the same time, the suspension geometry
was revised, vastly improving both the handling and ride quality,
particularly when coupled with the factory chassis developments.
This enhanced rigidity was instrumental in the introduction of the
brand new Spider version.
This car is one of only 75 Spiders that were manufactured in right-
hand drive for the UK market. It has enjoyed a thorough programme
of full annual maintenance whilst covering very limited annual
mileage.
L150 MEP has resided with its current owner for the last four years
as part of a private collection and has been thoroughly pampered
during his ownership. Having covered a mere 27,800 miles in its
23 years, this 348 has obviously been lightly used, however, it has
been maintained to a very high standard during this time, including
10 full services and six belt changes. The current owner is a highly
skilled engineer and has undertaken and documented at least
two belt changes, the most recent being in the last two months in
readiness for a sale. Accompanied by every MOT certificate from
new, all of its original book packs and leather-bound toolkit, this
low-mileage, UK right-hand drive, Spider must surely be a really
good buy, particularly with only 75 ever produced and even fewer in
Ferrari Yellow.

Since its introduction, the story of the Porsche 911 has been
punctuated with iconic and benchmark cars. The arrival of the
‘911S 2.4’ in 1972 set new standards, but perhaps the 2.7RS from
1973 remains their greatest seventies achievement. As is the way
of things, it was only natural that cubic capacity for mainstream
production cars would continue to increase, and the 2,687cc swept
volume in the 2.7 S resulted in 150bhp and a worthwhile increase in
torque. Impact bumpers were now required to satisfy American law
and production ran from 1974 to 1977.
Finished in Platinum Metallic with Brown leather trim, this rare, left-
hand drive, 1977 2.7 S ‘narrow body’ is showing 174,000 miles and
still sports its original stickers in the door shuts, and other features
dating back to 1977.
The exterior looks to be presentable for the mileage, with a few small
dents and a ripple on the rear quarter and the interior is ‘lived in’
and presents as you might expect considering the car’s age and
mileage. Our vendor informs us that, in his opinion, the engine
appears to be original and the gearbox looks to be correct. The unit
in the car is certainly magnesium cased, which is correct for a 1977
2.7 S, but we can’t confirm if these are the original units.
The 15-inch Fuchs alloys are correctly dated for the car, and could
well be original and the vendor has recently fitted new bushes. We
understand that the underneath of the car looks good and is still
wearing its original ‘Stoneguard’ throughout.
Given the above, this 1977 ‘S’ has been sensibly guided, however,
it is an attractive car in a great colour and would make an excellent
entry into the world of 911 ownership.

The 911 ‘Speedster’ was first produced in 1989 by Porsche to
reflect the timeless design of their original 356 Speedster from the
late 1950s. Design cues included the instantly recognisable raked
aluminium windscreen, three inches lower than the standard car,
combined with the ‘double hump’ clamshell fibreglass tonneau
cover.
The model was based upon the 3.2 Carrera with its later G50
gearbox, 911 Turbo wide body and chassis, upgraded Turbo-spec
brakes and suspension, combined with the normally aspirated
3.2, flat-six Carrera engine producing 231bhp. This resulted in an
outstanding driving experience, which was limited to the 139 right-
hand drive, Turbo-bodied Speedsters ever produced.
This factory right-hand drive car was delivered in July 1989 by
Porsche Cars Australia to a Mr. Victor Berk of New South Wales, who
is its one and only private registered keeper from new. It remains
today in its original specification of Black (colour code A1V9) with
black leather upholstery and a black hood.
It was factory fitted from new with the ‘Super Sport’ equipment
option, alarm system, and the luggage compartment trimmed in
black velour. The comprehensive history file includes everything from
the original dealer order form, a Porsche Certificate of Authenticity
(GB), an introduction letter from Porsche Australia to Mr. Berk,
every ‘inspection report’ (Australian MOT test) carried out by the
supplying dealer in New South Wales from new until June 2014, the
original Porsche leather wallet and book pack with spare keys, and
even the demo cassette for the Blaupunkt audio system!
In June 2014, Porsche Centre Sydney carried out a full dealer
inspection report, including a compression test and full service,
prior to the car’s export to the UK. The report concludes a
completely clean bill of health with no warnings or faults at a
mileage in June 2014 of 8,718km. Today it has covered just
8,997kms, which is 5,590 miles from new. The service book shows
21 main dealer services from new carried out on time, irrespective
of mileage covered. The mileage is therefore warranted and the
paintwork and interior condition remain exceptional and flawless
throughout.
A ‘triple black’ wide-bodied, right-hand drive Speedster is a rare
thing of great beauty and in this condition, an exceptional find that
is highly collectable. Silverstone Auctions are very proud to offer it
for public auction for the first time in the car’s life.

When launched to an eager public in 1961, the new E-type Jaguar
was available in either Open Two Seater (OTS) or two-seat Fixed
Head Coupé (FHC) formats, the latter having a useful opening rear
door giving access to the ample luggage compartment. By the
mid-1960s, the high demand for the car prompted Jaguar to offer
a third option, for the driver with a young family, in the form of a
2+2 coupé. By adding nine inches to the wheelbase and two inches
in height, it was then possible to fit a rear seat capable of seating
two adults in tolerable comfort and perfect for children. The longer
wheelbase also had the added benefit of allowing Jaguar to mate a
Borg-Warner automatic transmission to the 4.2-litre engine, thereby
further widening the appeal of the E-type.
The Jaguar E-type 2+2 on offer here is a 4.2-litre, right-hand drive,
Series ll with an automatic gearbox and chrome wire wheels. Its
accompanying Jaguar Heritage Certificate states that it was finished
on 22 June 1970 and supplied by Henlys of London on 14th July
1970 to Harrison Gloucester Ltd in Horsforth finished in Indigo blue
with a Dark Blue interior.
The car comes with some decent history and there are three ring-
binders full of information about its past including many MOTs
going back to 1980, and dozens of older invoices for maintenance
and servicing. We note from the file that the car had been stripped
and fully painted some years ago and at some point had been
‘Polybushed’ and fitted with a ‘sports’ exhaust manifold.
The somewhat more ‘vertical’ appearance of the Plus 2 is made
less noticeable in darker colours and the deep blue hue on this car
makes it look almost svelte. The interior is wonderfully patinated,
not scruffy, just lived-in.
With a fresh MOT and cosmetically sound this would be a good base
for a new buyer to take it a bit further, however, it is currently a good
looking, solid, usable classic, and it is an E-type.

Signed off on the 22nd of December 1990 and first registered on
the 15th of January 1991, this left-hand drive, European market
Testarossa appears to have spent much of its life in Northern
France. In July 2015, CQ-667-QL was purchased by our vendor
from Michel Ballario through ‘SB Autos’ in Villeneuve-Loubet in the
South of France. It was imported to the UK and submitted for a
pre-registration MOT on 6/08/2015 with the odometer indicating
48,841km. UK Registration was agreed on 16/09/2015, with the
registration number H162 HEJ being allocated. Shortly afterwards,
it was sent to Ferrari specialists, ‘Autofficina’ in Epsom for a full
assessment and they were subsequently instructed to go through
the car completely.
From their detailed invoice, it would appear that they were extremely
thorough. They carried out a major, engine-out service with all the
belts, filters and gaskets replaced and fresh fluids throughout.
The radiators were repaired, central locking and electric mirrors
serviced, all the lighting tested and made UK-legal, all wiring
checked with fresh connectors where appropriate, the cam covers
repainted and the engine bay tidied and steam-cleaned. The
dashboard had presumably suffered from the effects of too much
Mediterranean sun, so it was removed, re-trimmed in black leather,
reassembled and refitted. Further detailing was carried out and
the final account was over £8,800. The sparkling Testarossa was
returned to our delighted vendor in the middle of December 2015
with the odometer still indicating 48,841km, and with the reading
currently at 49,109km, it would suggest that the car has been very
lightly used in recent months.
The invoice from Autofficina is in the leather book pack alongside
various French Bills of Sale, export documents, correspondence with
the DVLA, the UK V5C, a spare set of keys and the original Warranty
Card and Service Book. The service record appears comprehensive,
and is stamped at 9,709, 20,541, 30,598, 37,935, 42,283 and
finally 48,841kms (30,525 miles).
Finished in classic Rosso Corsa with a Nero interior and contrasting
Red carpets, H162 HEJ appears to be in fabulous condition
throughout having only covered a few miles since being serviced
and detailed. The ‘icing on the cake’ is almost certainly the full set
of bespoke Ferrari-fitted luggage complete with slip covers, a rather
expensive option at the time.

The Ford Capri is a fastback coupé that was built by Ford Motor
Company from 1969 until 1986. The inspiration came from Ford of
America’s phenomenally successful Mustang, and Ford of Europe
were naturally keen to replicate that success on this side of the
pond. The resultant new coupé was actually designed by American
Philip T. Clark, known for his design input into the Mustang.
This UK-supplied, right-hand drive car was purchased new from
Ford main dealer W.H.Perry Ltd. in North Finchley. The car had been
ordered in early 1985 but the purchaser, who was retired, postponed
delivery until the new ‘C’ prefix registration was issued on 1st
August.
It had never been the intention of the car’s owner that it should
be put to daily use. He had been a Ford enthusiast and had finally
realised his dreams of buying a Capri. The car was cherished and
although used infrequently, never missed its annual service. Each
service was dutifully stamped by the dealer, confirming its very low
annual mileage.
By 1997, the car had covered a total of just 3,695 miles, at which
time its ageing owner had been taken ill. Shortly afterwards, the
Capri was laid-up and stored until 2006 when it was driven again
but only covered minimal mileage until 2009, bringing the total to
just over 4,000 when its owner passed away.
The Capri was then driven from London to his daughter, where it
remained until very recently. This is, without doubt, one of the finest
Capris we have seen in recent years and is a must for any Ford
collector.

We are pleased to offer this original right-hand drive UK-supplied
1974 E-type Series III Roadster. Dispatched on 14th February 1974
through Evans Cutler of Plymouth, the car was finished in Signal
Red with a Black leather interior and featured a manual gearbox.
Issued with Plymouth registration plate ‘XCO 777M’, the first
owner was a Mr B. E. Harris of the Alpine Hotel, Torquay. He kept
the car until June 1975 when it was sold to a Mr H. Woofenden of
Salcombe. In 1977, a Mr Edward Walker took ownership and was to
keep it for a further 4 years before ‘XCO’ was bought by a Mr Martin
Kettle of Crewe as a present to his son. Unfortunately, the car was
laid up until 1991 before it was acquired in the summer of 1992 by
a Mr A. Brooker of Warwickshire.
The history file is a delight, with invoices dating back to 1977, at
which point the car was maintained by the Jaguar distributor, Byatts
of Fenton Ltd, Stoke-On-Trent, along with a host of other bills from a
specialist. There is an invoice for the black Jaguar hardtop supplied
by Charles Clark at a cost of £370. In August 1980, when the car
had covered only 32,403 miles, the speedometer was returned
to Smiths Gauges to be rebuilt, at which point it was reset. Now
showing 4,610 miles, we believe the total mileage of just over
37,000 miles from new to be correct, corroborated by 26 previous
MOT certificates starting with 1977 and finishing in 2013.
A bill for £5,400 from Alscot Garage in 1998 shows the engine and
gearbox were removed, split and cleaned before a new clutch was
fitted. Other work carried out at the time included: a new steering
rack, brake callipers overhauled and the rear subframe dismantled,
cleaned and repainted, along with a host of other remedial work.
Most recently, the car has been through the workshop and a fresh
MOT will be obtained ahead of the sale.
The car is supplied with a UK V5c, its original Jaguar wallet
containing its operating, maintenance and service handbook, a
Jaguar Heritage Certificate, the original wheel nut spanner and
mallet. This low mileage Series III, equipped with hardtop, is an
incredibly rare find and we urge you to come and view this car
before original home-market cars such as this one become even
more scarce.

One of the rarest Ferrari models ever produced, particularly in right-
hand drive, the 365 GTC/4 was developed to meet the ever-growing
demand among Ferrari’s clientele for high-performance grand
tourers, with space for four passengers. It was introduced in March
1971 to replace the 365 GTC, which had been phased out two years
earlier. Enveloped in a sinuous and streamlined shape, it had clearly
been evolved in Pininfarina’s new wind tunnel, which came into
operation at the time the car was being developed. It was evident
that Ferrari intended this to be a much swifter alternative to other
2+2 grand tourers on the market, such as the Aston Martin DB6
Vantage and Lamborghini Espada.
Its engine was based on the Daytona’s 4.4-litre dual-overhead-cam
V12, but the major difference was that the car used side-draft
carburation, which allowed for a lower bonnet line. The chassis
of the 365 GTC/4 was essentially that of a GTB Daytona, albeit
stretched an additional 100 millimetres for extra cabin room. The
bodywork panels were unique to the GTC/4 and were not shared
with other models in the range. Around 500 examples were built over
an eighteen-month period and, according to online sources, some
41 365 GTC/4s were produced in right-hand drive, with only 31 of
those being destined for British shores.
First registered to Mann & Co. of Weybridge on 13th July 1972,
this car passed to a Michael Leighton Esq. of Shropshire on the
15th February 1974, and he, in turn, sold it to Albion Advertising
Limited of Lichfield in September 1975. The car was to be enjoyed
by the next owner, Donald Keith Moon Esq. of Eaton Terrace, London
for the next twenty-two years. From 1976, he entrusted its care
to the late John Etheridge Esq. of J.R. Etheridge Ltd., Watford,
who had established his highly-regarded business after being a
member of the Ford Advanced Vehicles GT40 team at Le Mans
during the 1960s. There are numerous copy invoices supplied by
J.R. Etheridge Ltd, during Mr. Moon’s ownership, and one of note
details a replacement speedometer at 49,600 miles and, as the car
has travelled some 13,000 miles since, the total mileage equates to
62,600 miles.
Our vendor bought the car from J.R. Etheridge Ltd. on the 18th
September 1998, and embarked on a substantial restoration,
with the car being returned to bare metal and most mechanical
components replaced or refurbished. This consignor has rarely
seen such a hefty sheaf of Maranello Concessionaires Ltd. receipts.
The considerable number of photographs of the restoration on file
are evidence of this colossal task. From 1998 to 2008 this labour
of love would also include an engine rebuild, an overhaul of the
brakes, suspension, heating, electrics, interior and a myriad of
others, with the engine rebuild carried out by Griffin Sportscars of
Loughborough.
In the summer of 2008, our vendor’s hard work was acknowledged
by the Ferrari Owner’s Club-Northern Branch with the award of their
‘Concours Cup’. The car’s selection for this prestigious award was
not only due to the high quality of the work carried out but also an
acknowledgment of the efforts of our vendor to maintain the period
accuracy of the car’s presentation. These included a period-correct
re-colour to dark blue from the factory Argento Silver, with the
interior re-trimmed in Cuoio Tan leather, as close to Ferrari VM3218
as possible. It must be agreed that this colour scheme complements
the flowing lines of the GTC/4 perfectly.
Matching engine and gearbox numbers are confirmed by the car’s
Ferrari Heritage Certificate, and the car is accompanied by a superb
history file that includes 21 MOTs from 1977, extensive receipts,
copy invoices from 1978 to 2007, factory tool kit, tool roll and
even a period-correct Ferrari key ring. To this consignor’s eye, the
Cromodora wheels require some detailing and the rear boot lid
underside repair may need slight attention to satisfy any future
Concours’ judges.
Said to be far easier to drive than the GTB Daytona, this GTC/4
offers a near fifty percent saving at current retail prices and is a
considerably rarer alternative.
