• One of only 470 UK-supplied, limited editions of the
Golf GTi convertible known as the ‘Rivage’
• Available only in metallic blue or green, fitted with a
5-speed gearbox and ‘Le Castellet’ forged alloys
• Finished in Inca Blue with a blue cloth interior, fitted
with Recaro seats and a powered Mohair hood
• 77,134 miles supported by the MOT history, the service
records and a number of invoices
• The very desirable Cherished Number (J4 LOL) is
generously included with the car
• NB. The entire proceeds from this sale, including
any Silverstone Auctions fees, are going to the South
Yorkshire branch of the Motor Neurone Disease
Association.
The VW Golf is surely one of the most iconic ‘hot-hatches’
ever conceived. Its popularity has never diminished and a
plethora of variants and styles have always been hungrily
anticipated and universally enjoyed by the car’s cult
following all of whom treasure the next instalment from
Volkswagen, the hot-hatch giant.
Whilst many motorists today appreciate the exhilaration
of roof-down ‘wind-in-your-hair’ motoring, few are willing
to forego the comfort of a saloon car in order to enjoy it,
however, the Golf GTi Convertible, introduced in 1980,
made any such sacrifice unnecessary being designed and
built by one of the world’s most experienced builders of
open-touring cars - Karmann of Osnabrück. With the hood
up these little cars were remarkably draught free, lower
the hood and you were ready to take advantage of every
moment of sunshine which a British summer could muster.
The Golf GTi Rivage was a run-out model of the legendary
Mk1 GTi Convertible, enhancing the appeal of the car with
metallic blue or green paint, heated Recaro cloth seats, Le
Castellet forged alloy wheels, powered mohair hood and a
five-speed gearbox. With its sub-10 second 0-60mph time
and a top speed of 108mph, the Rivage was clearly no
ordinary Golf convertible.
Finished in Inca Blue and benefiting from all the usual
Rivage features, this lovely example dates from 1991 and
was purchased from its first owner by the wife of our vendor
in 1996 and subsequently registered to her husband, our
vendor. The car was placed on a SORN in 2018 and is
currently in very nice condition with a warranted 77,134
miles indicated. It is supplied with all its previous MOT
test certificates, the service and owners’ handbooks and is
fitted with a Blaupunkt radio/cassette player and the usual
security systems. The very desirable cherished number
(J4 LOL) is generously included with the car.
Please note that the whole of the sale proceeds, including
any Silverstone Auctions fees, from this car are going to
the South Yorkshire branch of the Motor Neurone Disease
Association.

• Superbly presented ‘Phase 2’ car in classic Cherry Red
with 35,300 miles
• UK-supplied in early June 1991 by Summersdale
Peugeot in Chichester
• Smart, unmolested interior in black half-leather and
Monaco Tweed cloth
• Full-service history with 21 stamps in the book. Every
service invoice from new
• The most recent service (June 2019) included a
cambelt/water pump change
• The MOT is valid until August 2020, issued with no
advisories
• These landmark cars are becoming increasingly
collectable as practical classics
Silverstone Auctions know good 205 GTis when we see
them. In 2018 we achieved a new world record price for the
model, beating the previous highest figure, which we had
also again attained the year before. The car presented here
may not have covered a similarly tiny mileage to the two
record holders, but it’s special in its own way and a worthy
addition to our 205 back-catalogue.
This smart example was originally supplied to a Mr K C
Tomlins of Hayling island by Summersdale Peugeot in
Chichester, West Sussex prior to being first registered in
early June 1991. It was serviced at Summersdale for the
first 10 years of its life until the owner at the time switched
to another nearby Peugeot dealer. Comfortingly, our vendor
has all the service invoices going back to the very first
service on 21/08/91.
The overall condition of this very low mileage 205 is
excellent, having never been restored. The bodywork
appears spot-on with only a couple of minor blemishes and
the Cherry Red paintwork has been professionally polished
and exudes a wonderful shine. The black half-leather, Phase
2 interior is also in great shape with seats and carpets
showing minimal wear. The original Clarion stereo and
speakers remain in place and, importantly, the original rear
parcel shelf has not been modified to take larger, after-
market speakers. We understand that all the electrics work
just as they left the factory as does the sunroof with all its
seals intact.
The only modification to the car is the addition of air
conditioning which a former owner sourced from another
205 and had professionally installed by a well-known 205
specialist. The owner’s file contains the original logbook,
service invoices, original stamped service book and two
keys.
Overall, this is an excellent opportunity to acquire a genuine
low-mileage, unmolested 205 1.9 GTi that has patently been
cherished and drives really well. The desirability of these
cars is now well established and they always attract willing
buyers who generally tend to be most keen on low mileage,
unmodified cars with a clearly documented service history
and in cared for condition which, fortunately, is exactly what
we have here.

• If only the best will do: 2003 Maserati 4200 spyder
Cambiocorsa, 15,278 miles
• Spectacularly presented in gleaming Rosso Bologna
with a Bordeaux hood, 15-spoke silver alloys
• Classic Maserati interior in Avorio and Bordeaux leather
with walnut details, Rosso carpets and that clock
• Supplied new by Lancaster Ferrari & Maserati
Colchester and first registered in January 2003
• Acquired by our vendor in 2008 at 10,432 miles. Three
former keepers. Comprehensive service history
• Recent services. May 2019 at 15,076 miles (£1,516),
February 2018 at 14,780 miles (£672)
• Replacement clutch, new tyres, wheels refurbed in
January 2016 at 14,290 (£3,500)
• Complete with its original stamped service book, indoor
car cover, blue leather wallet and two sets of keys
A six-speed manual version of the 4200 Spyder was
offered, however, most buyers went for the six-speed F1
Cambiocorsa electrohydraulic paddle-shift transmission
with four modes which altered various characteristics
(throttle response, traction control, suspension stiffness etc)
in order to give the optimum performance for the chosen
mode. Mated to Maserati’s ‘Skyhook’ suspension which
allowed each damper to react in milliseconds, it added up
to a devastatingly rapid cross-country machine which felt
even faster than the figures suggested: 385bhp and 332lb/
ft; 0-60mph in 4.7 seconds; 178mph top speed.
Supplied new by Lancaster Ferrari & Maserati, Colchester,
Essex this stunning 4200 Spyder Cambiocorsa was first
registered during January 2003. It was ordered in Rosso
Bologna with a Bordeaux hood and 15-spoke silver alloys.
The interior is classic Maserati with Avorio and Bordeaux
leather, Rosso carpets, Walnut-rimmed steering wheel and
door caps and the traditional oval clock. Our vendor is the
car’s fourth keeper and acquired it in January 2008 at
10,432 miles. He tells us “I have averaged some 450 miles
per annum (in dry weather). I had the chrome replated in
Walsall as the Italian chrome doesn’t compare. The wheels
are completely refurbished and clutch replaced and new
tyres two or three years ago”.
The car has a comprehensive service history with the
original stamped service book showing regular attention.
The most recent service was by JP Performance Cars Ltd of
Burntwood at 15,076 miles, in May 2019 (£1,516.33) and
prior to that in February 2018 at 14,780 miles (£672.00).
JP also serviced the car in April 2016 at 14,290 miles and
the account for £3,500 included a clutch replacement.
Naturally, the relevant invoices for the above are in the
owner’s file alongside earlier invoices and MOT’s and the
current MOT valid until March 2020. The Maserati has a
bespoke car cover, a phonecard, a new blue leather wallet
and two sets of keys.
Totally pampered and immaculate. Undoubtedly a ‘Best of
Breed’ contender.

• The 325i (E30) Sport is a highly desirable 2-door only
BMW model with numerous M-Tech upgrades from
BMW’s Motorsport Division
• Fitted with the legendary 170bhp M20 2494cc straight-
six engine good for 132 mph and 0-60 in 9.9 seconds
• First registered on 12/06/1991, being a later face-
lifted M Technic 2 model, in special order (1991
only) Granitsilber Metallic, and one of the last Sport
examples produced
• UK-supplied via Millcars (BMW) of Hampstead, this
hugely original car has covered a fully verifiable
6,794 miles, accompanied by a full book-pack and
comprehensive history file
Compact rear-wheel drive saloons were in short supply in
the 1980’s and consequently, the E30 quickly stood out as
something special, being lightweight, refined, and offering
unparalleled driving pleasure. The range-topping M3 is now
rightly one of the most sought-after sports cars of the last
30 years and can command in excess of £100,000.
With the success of the M3, BMW capitalised on the
demand for more sporting E30s, and in 1986 gave the
market the 325i Sport, a 2-door only model with numerous
M-Tech upgrades from BMW’s Motorsport Division. These
included an M Technic body-kit and boot spoiler, Anthracite
headlining (unique to the 325i Sport), a limited-slip
differential, M Technic suspension (15mm lower springs
and Boge M Technic shock absorbers) and a 5-speed ZF
close-ratio gearbox. The car is powered by the legendary
M20 2494cc straight-six engine giving 171bhp and 164
lb-ft of torque, good for 132 mph and 0-62 mph time of
9.9 seconds, decently quick but it’s really the whole driving
experience that impresses so much.
There were two generations of the 325i Sport, commonly
referred to as a Tech-1 (September 1986 - August 1987;
pre-facelift model) followed, not surprisingly, by the Tech-2
(facelift model).
The car presented here is a UK-supplied right-hand drive
1991 BMW E30 325i Sport (Tech-2) which was first
registered on 12th June 1991 having been sold by Millcars
(BMW) of Hampstead finished in special order (1991 only)
Granitsilber Metallic (Granite Silver; paint code 272).
One of the last Sport examples ever produced, this
incredibly original car has covered a fully verifiable 6,794
miles with just two previous keepers from new and is
accompanied by a full book-pack, original paperwork and a
comprehensive history file. This extraordinary car has been
preserved in such a rare unmolested condition, it is surely
one of the best, low mileage examples out there. Coming
from our private vendor who bought the car back in 2007
at 5,200 miles, it has been stored well and regularly run-up
and serviced. It really is as good as in the photographs
and would be the perfect fit for any enthusiast or collector.
(The car wears its correct, original and immaculate BMW
cross-spoke alloys wheels, but will come with a set of now
extremely rare and sought-after original in-period Alpina
alloy wheels, which the first owner specified and preferred.)

• Fabulous C2 Sting Ray supplied new to Sir Cliff Richard
OBE
• UK-supplied, left-hand drive, second-generation
Corvette Sting Ray with 69,083 miles
• Built in St Louis in early 1963 fitted with a 327ci, OHV
V-8, manual gearbox, LSD, and factory Hardtop
• Registered as 7 EXV on 28/03/1963 to Harry Rodger
Webb (Cliff Richard) in Winchmore Hill, London
• Both the buff and green logbooks remain with the car,
the early one has been signed by Cliff (H R Webb) twice
• Purchased by our vendor in 2012 from Claremont
Corvette after they had fully refurbished the car
• That work included a respray in Sterling Silver, new soft
top, carpets, leather seats, clutch, flywheel and tyres
• Great history file with Logbooks, old MOT’s, original
stickers, radio manual, V5c and lots of invoices
• A lovely example of “America’s Sports Car” with
fabulous celebrity provenance
Now in its seventh generation, the Corvette began life in
1953 with the C1 - a model that inspired a generation of
young Americans and gave the Ford Empire a nine-year
headache. However, it was the C2, the immortal Sting
Ray produced between 1963 and 1967, that really set
Chevrolet’s cash registers ringing and left us with the most
desired and collectable Corvette to date. Designed by Larry
Shinoda under the guidance of the legendary Bill Mitchell,
influences on the Sting Ray’s unique and unforgettable form
are said to include: the E-type Jaguar, a Mako Shark once
caught by Mitchell, the ‘Q Corvette’ concept car of 1957
and the ‘Mitchell Sting Ray’ design exercise. By the autumn
of 1959, elements of the two unique Corvettes had been
blended into XP-720 - the design programme that led to the
production of the Sting Ray (later changed to Stingray) as
we know it.
According to its chassis number, this lovely left-hand
drive, Corvette convertible emerged from Chevrolet’s St
Louis plant in early 1963 fitted with a 327ci, OHV V-8, a
four-speed manual gearbox ($188), Positraction rear axle
(LSD) $43.05, finished in Silver Blue (912) with a black
vinyl interior and supplied with an optional hardtop in body
colour ($236). It was immediately shipped to the UK by
British and Colonial Motors of St. Martins Lane in London
prior to being registered as 7 EXV on 28/03/1963 to a
Mr Harry Rodger Webb, perhaps better known as Sir Cliff
Richard OBE. Both the buff and green log books remain
with the car and the early one has been signed by Cliff (H
R Webb) twice, initially when he lived at Winchmore Hill and
subsequently when he moved to Upper Nazeing in Essex.
Naturally, such a flamboyant motor car has worn different
number plates with later owners including AHK 514A, 5
SOO, 959 NOJ and currently 55AFR since 1974.
Our vendor purchased the car in early November 2012
from Claremont Corvette - The Original Corvette Specialists
for £47,995 and there is a Bill of Sale in the owner’s
file. There is a further invoice in the file, dated 21/10/12
from Claremont indicating that the Corvette had been
substantially refreshed prior to our vendor becoming the
car’s proud owner. That work included a full respray in
Sebring Silver by MechSpray with the hardtop painted to
match, a new black convertible top, new period-correct
carpets, the worn vinyl seat covers replaced with leather,
four new black-wall radial tyres fitted and balanced on
repainted wheels, hubcaps re-polished with new spinners, a
new clutch and flywheel, the engine compartment valeted,
the original air cleaner re-chromed, new electric window
switches, gear knob and doorknob and finally, a full pre-sale
service.
Since purchasing this very special Chevrolet around seven
years ago, Claremont Corvette have been tasked with sundry
items of maintenance and enhancement and there are a
couple of invoices in the file (23/07/2013 for £2,507.82
and 14/10/2014 for £2,528.72) in return for their care and
attention.
As you can see from the photographs, 55 AFR presents
well in its coat of Sebring Silver and remains in remarkably
fresh condition having been lightly used over the last seven
years. The black interior is lightly patinated appearing
essentially original apart from the recovered seats and
you can’t help wonder how many legends of sixties rock
and pop have travelled in these seats and fiddled with the
original Delco radio during Cliff’s ownership. In addition to
the early logbooks, the car is accompanied by a number
of older MOT’s the oldest of which dates from 1969, Bills
of Sale, the refurbishment and maintenance invoices from
Claremont, a considerable number of older invoices, and
some original stickers and decals.

This is an attractive and well-maintained example of
America’s Sports Car from a great year, and with only
69,000 miles and in this lovely condition, is very sensibly
guided, however, we can’t help feeling that a lot of people
will be interested in it simply because it was owned and
regularly driven by the most successful British chart act of
all time. Over a career spanning 60 years, Sir Cliff Richard
OBE has amassed many Gold and Platinum discs and
awards, including two Ivor Novello Awards and three Brits.
Over 130 of his singles, albums and EPs have reached
the UK Top 20, more than any other artist. He has had 67
UK top-ten singles, the second-highest total for any artist
behind Elvis. He also holds the record (with Elvis) as the
only act to make the UK singles charts in all of its first six
decades (the 1950s–2000s), has achieved 14 UK number-
one singles and is the only singer to have had a number-one
single in the UK in five consecutive decades. He remains
a popular performer, another of those curiously British
‘institutions’, and in 1995 he was knighted by Her Majesty
the Queen for his charity work.
David Steen (much-respected freelance photographer of
film stars, actors, criminals, politicians and Prime Ministers
in the 1960’s and whose evocative images of Cliff and the
Corvette appeared in the Press at the time) recalls: “During
his series of one-nighters, Cliff drove himself from town to
town, gig to gig, in his left-hand-drive Corvette Sting Ray. He
was a good driver and loved cars. At that time he also had a
Cadillac Fleetwood limousine. I spent three days on the road
with him.”
The fact that most ardent Cliff Richard fans will almost
certainly be sporting a fine crop of silver hair is not really
relevant as, for many of them, the Corvette and Cliff will
be the key to opening a box full of wonderful memories.
Take your mind back to the Spring of 1963. You are 17,
on a spring break from college and half a dozen of you are
squeezed into an old VW Microbus rattling down the A303
on the way to Dawlish or Woolacombe or Saunton Sands to
watch the surfing, enjoy bonfires on the beach, fall in love
and generally relish the freedom of being a hundred miles
away from your parents. The transistor radio, wedged in
a corner of the dashboard, is only ever switched off for a
battery change and, as the charts at the time were topped
by Cliff or the Shadows or Jet Harris and Tony Meehan,
then that music inevitably became the soundtrack for those
magical few weeks of self-discovery. A trip to the local
cinema to see Cliff’s latest film Summer Holiday about a
gang of teenage friends and a big red bus and featuring
a number of hit songs including Summer Holiday, The
Next Time and Bachelor Boy only serves to enhance that
adolescent, we’re going to live forever, sense of teenage
identity.
Let’s move forward to Spring 2020 and you are considering
making that trip again, just for the sake of it, a bit of
nostalgia, play some Cliff and the Shadows on the MP4 and
maybe take in the digitally-remastered Summer Holiday
shown at the Regal in a small Dorset town as part of their
Sixties Night programme. What a great idea. Now, imagine
that you could make that trip behind the wheel of Cliff’s own
Corvette, a car in which he probably composed some of his
greatest hits and almost certainly sang them to himself on
the way to a gig. Wouldn’t that be special, an experience you
simply can’t buy.
Well, actually, you can.

• A former show-winning example, owned by the previous
keeper for 27 year, with just 4,000 miles (approx.)
• Dax has been building Cobra recreations for over 30
years
• Built and first registered in 1991 with a photographic
record of the build
• Finished in Rouge Alhambra Pearlescent. Replica
Halibrand alloy wheels, side exhaust
• Magnolia hide with maroon piping. Wilton carpet and
full tonneau cover. Rosewood steering wheel
• Cleveland 351 V8 (5.7-litre). Blueprinted, fully
balanced, Edelbrock fast-road cam
The hugely charismatic DAX 427 (also known as Tojeiro)
has remained the undisputed market leader for more than
30 years and has steadily established itself as a much-
sought-after classic sports car in its own right. The car’s
enduring popularity owes much to DAX’s policy of continual
product improvement and painstaking attention to detail.
A philosophy that has clearly shaped every aspect of their
cars from its state-of-the-art technical specification, top
quality composite body and sumptuous leather interior to
its deep-dished Halibrand style wheels, trademark stainless
steel side-pipe exhausts and low, wide, purposeful stance.
The car presented here is a 1976 Dax Tojeiro 427 5.7-litre
V8 homage to the Cobra, built and first registered in
1991, having covered just 4,000 miles. You get the
feeling that whoever decided on this car’s specification
and colour scheme thought long and hard about every
aspect of this show-winner and patently it was worth it.
It’s finished in a delicious Rouge Alhambra Pearlescent
with Magnolia hide piped in Maroon and deep red Wilton
carpets which, on paper, sounds a little OTT but in the
metal really works and when combined with the stainless
side exhausts, chromed tubular bumpers and over-riders,
chromed roll-over hoop, alloy stone guards, alloy flip-top
fuel filler, Rosewood steering wheel and shiny Halibrands,
render this piece of automotive confectionery almost good
enough to eat. The details and finish are second to none,
whilst the performance, sound and experience are almost
indistinguishable from that of a Shelby Cobra.
Offering fantastic value for money, this car has been
extremely well cared for and drives as well as it presents.
With Dax being still very active with parts, servicing and
advice, any new owner will become part of a very special
group of enthusiasts who know and promote, via buoyant
clubs and gatherings, these cars extremely well. Once you
have felt the shove of a 5.7-litre V8 in a lightweight open-top
car, you’re hooked! A great car and a real opportunity to buy
a very special DAX.

• An original UK-supplied, right-hand drive Montreal. One
of only 155. Warranted 45,495 miles
• Still in its original Arancio Pastello (AR601) with a Nero
interior. Very desirable combination
• Purchased by our vendor in 1980 with 4,000 miles
indicated. Only two previous keepers
• Dry stored for the last 15 years in our vendor’s factory
as he couldn’t bear to part with it
• Good original interior with the driver’s seat showing
very few signs of wear
• Original owners manual. Cherished number (600 JRL)
will stay with the car
This may have been love at first sight but was certainly
an impulsive purchase as, on July 15th 1977, our vendor
was in traffic moving slowly down Birmingham’s Broad
Street when he spotted this gleaming orange Ala Romeo
Montreal right at the front of Ryland’s showroom. A close
inspection of the car, confirmation of the mileage of 4,000,
a discussion about the remarkable colour (Arancio Pastello),
and a few quiet moments sitting in the cabin was enough.
That was it, cheque book out and the deal was done in just
over an hour, we did say that it was love at first sight.
With only two previous owners, stewardship has remained
with our vendor to the present day and was used sparingly
over the following 27 years until a developing collection of
daily drivers rendered it surplus to requirements. His love
for this car had not faded so, rather than dispose of it, he
considered placing it into hibernation within his factory the
better option. Now, some 15 years later, he has decided its
time to offer the opportunity of owning this rare, right-hand
Montreal to a new custodian. We understand that it was
driving very well to the point of storage but has not been
run since. This is indeed a project but we feel it’s more of a
re-commission than a restoration, after all, it was in regular
use up to 15 years ago and has remained dry and warm
on a mezzanine floor in a working factory. We have decided
that it’s best to leave the car covered in dust as you see
in the photographs rather than wash it allowing potential
purchasers to form their own opinion about the amount of
work required.
Accompanied by its original handbook, spare wheel and
keys, this desirable Montreal is now ready for the next
adventure. With low ownership, a warranted 45,495 miles
and retaining the registration number 600 JRL, this is
a fantastic project. One of only 155 original right-hand
drive examples, highly desirable and very collectable, an
opportunity that really should not be missed.

• Step-sister of Toyota’s GT86 and infinitely more focused
• 2.0-litre, 4-cylinder boxer engine (197bhp/151lb ft.),
6-speed manual gearbox, rear-wheel drive, LSD
• Post-facelift car with new bumper design, new
headlights and rear spoiler
• 2017-specification with spring rate and anti-roll bar
changes resulting in really crisp turn-in
• Immaculate in WR Blue Pearl, one enthusiast owner and
only 615 miles from new
The Subaru BRZ is the other half of the joint venture that
resulted in Toyota launching the GT86 and is undoubtedly
the more focused of the duo, with slightly sharper steering,
a keener front end and better high-speed damping than the
more luxurious GT86. However, it would appear that for the
majority of buyers, superior dynamics will always come
second to a better-equipped cabin, a longer warranty and
increased refinement, so it came as little surprise that the
plusher Toyota outsold its more focused sibling by roughly
five to one. Not one to lie down however, Subaru fought back
in 2017 with a mid-life facelift addressing those concerns.
On the inside, a compact 4.2in screen was added to the old-
school instrument panel, a new, smaller-diameter steering
wheel similar to that applied to the GT86 was fitted and the
interior featured Alcantara throughout.
On the outside, the changes were less obvious: new
headlights now featured different day-time running lights,
the front bumper sported redesigned side vents and the
boot lid benefitted from a tacked-on rear wing.
The 2.0-litre four-cylinder boxer engine was retained, still
producing 197bhp and 151lb ft, however, the strength
of the engine block was increased, the rocker arms were
lightened and friction was reduced on the camshaft. The
car’s handling was tweaked and for 2017 the front springs
were stiffened and the rears softened off, while the opposite
was done to the anti-roll bars. This resulted in the front end
becoming even pointier, but the steering was remapped
restoring stability and consequently confidence at speed.
Offered here is a virtually brand new, post-facelift, 2017
Subaru BRZ SE Lux in gleaming WR Blue Pearl owned from
new by our collector vendor who envisaged himself as the
long term custodian of both the special WRC Blue Pearl
Subarus in our catalogue. His plans have changed, however,
and he now wishes to pursue the purchase of a once-in-a-
lifetime Supercar. Only driven on dry days, this sparkling
BRZ has never seen rain during the 615 miles covered in
his hands. In addition to its pre-delivery inspection in April
2017, a main dealer service was conducted at 585 miles
(10,000-mile service and oil change) in January 2019. The
manufacturer’s five-year warranty is naturally still valid and
the car comes complete with all handbooks/manuals and
its original Subaru sales brochure.
Despite being absolutely unmarked and with a tiny mileage,
this very special BRZ has been guided substantially lower
than anything in the market place and represents a real
opportunity for a collector or, as we hope, an enthusiast
owner.

• The combination of RAM and Reynard resulted in a
properly engineered Cobra Replica
• Donor car was a 1981 Jaguar 4.2 XJ6. Jaguar running

inspected and road tested prior to our sale
Replicas of the legendary AC Cobra built by RAM, although
naturally similar in appearance to other Cobra replicas,
are totally different under the double-skinned fibreglass
shell. Instead of a ladder frame chassis, there is a full
space frame which was developed by RAM’s creator,
Adrian Cocking, in conjunction with single-seat racing
car constructors, Reynard. The very nature of the RAM’s
chassis construction gives increased rigidity over most
ladder frames which inevitably offers handling benefits.
Jaguar top and bottom wishbones are hung onto the front
of the chassis and used in conjunction with uprated road
springs and dampers. At the rear of the car, a modified
Jaguar XJ-Series rear axle is used with shortened drive-
shafts. The space frame design offers the safety-conscious
a well-braced body shell with many impact-absorbing zones
and the driver is surrounded by a substantial framework.
The fuel tank, often a touch vulnerable with other designs,
is set deep into the chassis behind the seats for protection.
Most RAM Cobra replicas were fitted with a mildly tweaked
Rover V8 engine or, in some cases, a large American V8 unit
was used giving similar performance to the original Shelby
Cobra.
The lovely RAM Cobra featured here is indeed powered by
350ci (5.7-litre) Chevrolet ‘small-block’ V8 fuelled through
a Holley 650CFM carburettor under a chromed Edelbrock
air filter and mated to a 5-speed manual gearbox. The
donor car was a 1981 Jaguar 4.2 XJ6 so the running gear is
naturally Jaguar with the addition of adjustable coil-overs.
Although registered as 1981, we believe that this particular
vehicle was built around 1994 as there are spec-sheets from
RAM in the file dated January 1994.
The car is finished in gleaming black with two large gold
stripes running the length of the bodywork. Externally
the look is completed by chrome front overriders, wind
deflectors, polished aluminium stone guards, single hoop
drivers roll-over bar, a centre mounted flip-top fuel filler,
side-exit exhausts and 15” Halibrand wheels with black
inserts and replica spinners.
With only 8,339 miles indicated and on offer from a much-
pampered private collection, this delectable RAM Cobra
seems like tremendous value.

This RS1600i has formed part of the world famous RS
collection since 2008, (www.pistonheads.com/features/
ph-features/rs-royalty-the-bonkers-collection/23965) and
in that time it has featured in many online and paper
magazines. The collection’s owner and creator scoured
the UK for many years to unearth the very best Sunburst
Red RSi he could find, and after many years of searching,
this particular example was found on his door step in the
South Wales Valleys. Inevitably collections evolve and now
the time has come for the next custodian to enjoy what is
undoubtedly one of the very best RSi’s in existence.
The car was first registered on 14/10/1983 and is one of
only 560 UK cars in Sunburst Red. It’s accompanied by a
box file full of history including every MOT from14/10/1986
at 8,057 miles through to 18/02/2019 at 34,646 miles. It
remained in storage from 2004 until 2010 but, even so, it’s
only covered 700 miles in the last 16 years. Apart from the
MOT’s and dozens if not hundreds of invoices for servicing
and minor maintenance, the file also contains log books,
old tax discs, an 11-page Parts List, RS1600I identification
sheet, RS1600i buyers guide, the service book and a spare
set of keys.
As you will see from the photographs the car is in amazing
condition with a deep shine, good decals, a mint interior
and a showroom-quality engine bay. Quite frankly, it’s the
best RSi we have ever seen.
In accordance with his normal practice, our vendor will
ensure that the car is inspected, fully serviced, freshly
MOT’d and road-tested prior to the sale.

• Right-hand drive Mk1 Mini Cooper beautifully prepared
for the 10th Monte-Carlo Historic, finishing successfully
• Stripped to a bare shell in 1999, seam-welded then
completely rebuilt from the ground up to the Rally
Regulations
• A high-quality restoration documented with
photographs, invoices and today presenting extremely
well
• Lots of history. Build records, pace notes, MOT’s,
invoices and supporting documents
• Recently repatriated from Guernsey, on a NOVA, taxes
paid
This lovely Mk1 Mini Cooper was first registered on
07/04/1967, finished in blue with a white roof. Photographs
within the history folder show the condition of the car in
1998 when it was purchased with one goal in mind, an
entry in the Rallye Monte-Carlo Historique. The car was
completely stripped to its basic components and totally
rebuilt to a specification allowing entry into the event. The
engine was rebuilt with a 997 camshaft, scalloped pistons
to accommodate a ported big valve head, and a long
manifold connected to a works-spec central exhaust system.
The interior is to period works rally-spec including twin
stopwatches and a Twin Halda Speedmaster. Now finished
in Tartan Red with the standard white roof, the exterior has
period spotlights, boot-mounted reversing light, twin fuel
tanks and a sump guard. The suspension has rubber cones
and is fully adjustable. Extensive photographic accounts
of the work can be found in the history folder supported
by invoices and it is clear to see the sheer quality of the
workmanship as 20 years after the restoration the car still
presents extremely well, beautifully in fact. The rally was
successfully completed and the entry forms, brochures and
pace notes are included in the history file. Subsequently,
the car was dry stored for a number of years before the
decision was taken to have the engine professionally
overhauled by Southam Mini Centre and shortly afterwards
the owner moved to Guernsey where our vendor was offered
and purchased the car in 2012.
Today this little Cooper presents beautifully, looking
every inch a sixties rally car, and is said to perform well.
On inspection, it’s clear to see that the quality of the
restoration and recent correct storage has meant that it
remains in excellent shape. Our vendor has little time to use
the car so has decided to pass it on to another Mini Cooper
enthusiast. At the time of cataloguing, the car is in the
process of being repatriated from Guernsey with a NOVA
applied for and any applicable taxes paid.
As far as we can see, there will always be events suitable
for sixties Mini Coopers and this well-prepared example is
ideally suited for fast-road, hill-climbs, sprints and historic
rallying with a few minor modifications to suit particular
event regulations. As always with a car used in competition,
it’s necessary to check the currency and suitability of any
safety equipment but, that done, this super Monte-Carlo
Mini will be welcome anywhere.

• Finished in Midnight Blue with Charcoal leather interior,
this is a desirable manual DB7
• Aston Martin service history showing nine stamps in the
book – the latest in June 2019
• Showing just 29,000 miles the car is supplied with its
handbooks, the V5c and an MOT until June 2020
At the Geneva Motor Show in 1999, Aston Martin introduced
the long-awaited Vantage version of their successful DB7.
Sporting a Cosworth-designed, 5.9-litre V12 producing
a creamy 420bhp, the car was super-quick and was
electronically limited to 185mph. The V12 had a serious
appetite for air compared to its 6-cylinder predecessor,
demanding a larger intake and other modifications to the
frontal airflow were made to aid cooling. Other changes
included chassis and braking upgrades, to cope with the
increased performance and Ian Callum enlarged the grille,
added fog lamps and re-styled the valances to give the car a
more purposeful look. The Vantage interior leather trim was
cut and sewn at a special trim shop at Newport Pagnell,
where the carpet and wood veneers were also prepared. The
5.9-litre V12 Vantage Volante, costing over £100,000 at its
launch, remained in production until 2004.
Offered here, is a DB7 Vantage V12 with the desirable
manual gearbox supplied new in the UK through Aston
Martin Mayfair in 2002 and finished in Midnight Blue with
charcoal leather, a walnut dashboard and a Slate Alcantara
headlining.
The service book records an Aston Martin main dealer
service history with the most recent being carried out in
June 2019. Supplied with spare keys and its book pack
containing all the relevant literature, this stunning car has
now covered just over 29,000 miles from new. MOT tested
until June 2020, this desirable manual variant is now hugely
collectable and with prices of all DB7s starting to rise, this
low mileage Vantage surely ticks the boxes of any enthusiast
looking to add to a collection of Aston Martins carrying the
fabled DB badge.

The Z3 was the first modern mass-market roadster
produced by BMW as well as the first new BMW model to
be assembled in the United States. The Z3 was designed
by Joji Nagashima of the BMW design team and developed
from the 3-series E36 platform and consequently is often
referred to as the E36/7 (Roadster) or E36/8 (Coupé).
When launched, only the 1.9-litre, straight-four engine
was offered, but its 138bhp proved a bit short of breath.
A 2.2-litre engine producing 168bhp was made available
for the more enthusiastic driver whilst in 1997 a powerful
six-cylinder 2.8-litre unit producing 190bhp was an option,
and ultimately, in 1998, the 3.2-litre Z3M topped the
range. In October 2001, the M Coupé reappeared with the
new 3.2-litre S54B32 engine from the E46 M3, producing
321bhp at 7400rpm and 258lb/ft.
The documentation with this lovely example indicates that
the car has been enjoyed by three keepers, but the first
of these was the original purchaser who then sold it to
his brother who later sold it back to him so, whilst three
keepers is technically correct, in real terms it’s one family
ownership. Anyway, between them, they only managed
to cover 11,000 miles and this car is almost certainly
one of the best examples in the country. Supplied new
by Hexagon BMW finished in sparkling Titan Silver with
contrasting Imola Red & black Nappa leather trim, this
car is in excellent condition. Well-specified from new, it’s
equipped with heated seats, air conditioning, and a moon
roof. The car has been particularly well-kept and appears
virtually untouched as evidenced by the first aid kit which
is still in the original cellophane. It was serviced just once,
as per its BMW schedule, and had periods on SORN from
2012 until 2016 when it joined a private collection. The
mileage is warranted by a VOSA MOT check- 2006 at 5929
miles, 2007 at 6758, 2008 at 7162, 2011 at 8618, 2016
(June) at 10,965, 2016 (November) at 11,110 and 2019 at
1,281. Further details of the car’s initial 13 years can be
found within the history file along with all its handbooks,
V5c registration, the current MOT Certificate valid until May
2020 and details of its most recent service in September
this year at 11,282 miles.
Only 165 right-hand drive, S54 engined examples of the
Z3M were ever produced by BMW, and that rarity will
inevitably result in them becoming particularly sought after.

• Well-documented service and MOT history
• Full book pack in Mercedes-Benz leather wallet
• A very special example of Mercedes’ market-leading
Grand Tourer and surely unrepeatable at this mileage
Introduced in 2002, after some five years in development,
the R230 Series SL Roadster was an engineering ‘tour
de force’. Painstakingly modelled on a state-of-the-art
supercomputer which enabled the designers to analyse
every curve and line, it looked utterly sensational with an
air of barely contained aggression that gave it huge road
presence. Packed full of sophisticated electronic driver
aids which made it immensely safe but also fun to drive,
it was an instant hit with press and public alike and is
widely considered to be the best-looking Mercedes for
many years. The power-operated aluminium folding roof
was particularly admired and would disappear into the top
of the boot at the press of a button in just 16 seconds,
yet still leave enough room underneath for 206 litres of
luggage space. It was in 2003 that the stunning looking
SL55 AMG version was introduced. Seriously powerful and
massively fast, the 5.4-litre engine gave 476 bhp and a tree
stump pulling 520lbs/ feet of torque! Early owners included
the, notoriously difficult to please, Jeremy Clarkson, who
became quite vocal about his enthusiasm for the way it
drove, the way it looked and above all, the way it sounded!
Featuring the amazing panoramic electric glass roof
system, it became the sports car to own between 2003 and
2006.
LM53 OTV is finished in Brilliant Silver Metallic (744) with a
sumptuous black/anthracite (261) leather interior featuring
air-cooled electrically adjusted seating and was first
registered in early January 2004, to Mercedes-Benz directly
and then subsequently sold to its first owner who was a
merchant banker. The car’s second owner obviously was
also selective about when he drove it and, since 2017, it has
been part of a private collection all of which explains the
tiny mileage of 4,500. Lack of mileage does not mean lack
of maintenance, however, and the service record has been
stamped at the following intervals; 07/08/2008 at 1,775,
20/04/2017 at 4,315, 18/09/2019 at 4,476 miles.
The MOT history is also well documented; 2009 at 1,962
miles, 2010 at 3,087, 2011 at 4,268, 2017 at 4,339, 2019
at 4,481 and all of this information is in the original book
pack in the proper Mercedes presenter. The car clearly has
had little wear, still generating that lovely combination of
aromatic leather and new car feel when sitting in it for the
first time.
This SL55 AMG presents really, really well and appears
almost unmarked. The engine bay appears showroom
fresh and the whole car has patently been looked after.
Ballistically quick, fabulous looks, continent covering pace,
yet as civilised in town as a Toyota Corolla.

• Purchased by our vendor, the second owner, from Sir
John in 2010 and part of his collection ever since
• £27,000 spent with XJ220 specialist, Don Law, in
2016 including replacement of the fuel cell and other
recommended work with invoices on file
• An extremely rare opportunity to acquire a very low
mileage, low owner, example of one of the most
significant supercars of its era
With 0-60mph acceleration in a brutal 3.5 seconds, the
XJ220 was indisputably the fastest road car on the planet
when the prototype was revealed at the 1988 British Motor
Show in Birmingham. The response was sensational and, as
expected, orders and the required £50,000 deposits flooded
in from all corners of the world. The original concept was
for a V12-engined car with a six-speed gearbox and four-
wheel drive priced at just under £300,000, however, some
four years later when production finally commenced, the
XJ220 had become a two-wheel drive, twin-turbo V6 with
a five-speed box on offer at £470,000. Predictably, many
of the 1,500 option holders tried to cancel their purchase
blaming the massive change in the specification but the
collapse in values of collectable supercars at the time
was probably more of a factor. Eventually, the car found
275 buyers and the others don’t know what they missed.
Producing an impressive 549bhp at 7,000rpm/473lb.ft
at 4,500rpm and now slightly shorter by some ten inches
courtesy of the smaller dimensions of the V6 engine
against the bulky V12, but still, with a not inconsiderable
girth of six feet and six inches, the XJ220 proved more than
capable of reaching its target maximum speed. In 1992, at
the Italian Nardo test track, Formula 1 and sportscar ace,
Martin Brundle, recorded 212.3mph around the banking in
standard trim and 217.1mph with the catalytic converters
disconnected, the latter speed equivalent to 223mph on a
straight road.
Thanks to racing-developed inboard wishbone suspension
and huge ventilated disc brakes with four-piston callipers,
it held the road beautifully and stopped equally as well.
Production of the car began the following year in a purpose-
built factory at Bloxham in Oxfordshire with the first cars
delivered in July to, amongst other well-known names, Elton
John, Baron Hamer of Alford and the Sultan of Brunei. On
the circuits, the Jaguar also proved highly effective. In the
competition version, the XJ220C, another sports car ace,
Win Percy, took victory on the car’s race debut in the BRDC
National Sports GT Challenge. In the 1993 Le Mans 24
Hours John Nielsen, David Brabham and David Coulthard
finished first in the GT class, though only for their XJ220C
to be subsequently disqualified over a spurious technical
infringement.
Offered here is a very special example of this iconic 1990’s
supercar. It is a UK-supplied, right-hand drive example that’s
covered a remarkable 2,035 miles from new in the hands
of just two owners. It’s finished in the highly desirable
colour combination of Spa Silver with a charcoal interior
and has been owned by our vendor, the second owner, since
2010 when he bought the XJ220 from its first owner, Sir
John Madejski. Sir John has a wide range of commercial
interests and achievements spanning property, broadcast
media, hotels, restaurants, football and is the founder of the
magazine which became Autotrader. Our vendor is no less
a celebrity, being a well-known and respected Historic racer
and businessman.
Having covered a tiny mileage it’s easy to see in the cars
accompanying history file that no expense has been spared
maintaining this rare Jaguar. During our vendor’s ownership,
JD classics were initially entrusted to look after the car and
invoices in the file clearly detail the specialised attention
the XJ220 received. More recently, model experts Don Law,
have looked after the car for the vendor. Indeed, there are
significant invoices in the file from 2016 when £27,000
was invested recommissioning the car following long term
storage and this work included replacing the Fuel Cell,
other, model-specific, timed replacements and naturally a
full service. All the original books are included in the history
file, with both the cars owners electing to leave the service
book untouched, preferring to attach the relevant invoices
detailing work that’s been carried out.
Silverstone Auctions are delighted to offer such a special
example to the open market for the first time in nearly
ten years. Indeed, this car is being stored with Silverstone
Auctions until the sale in November, and we welcome any
pre-sale inspection.

• To be professionally inspected and recommissioned
prior to the auction as a Channel 4 project
• The recommission will focus on both mechanical and
cosmetic aspects
• Only 1,500 miles following an extensive engine rebuild.
Dry stored last four years apart from MOT visits
• Full Porsche and specialist service history accompanied
by a massive file of receipts and invoices
• The whole process will be recorded and the finished
project will be offered, ready to go and MOT’d at the
auction
Channel 4 has commissioned a pilot episode for a new
and exciting series that involves members of the public
having their antique objects or vehicles restored then sold
and, pleasingly, these objects include classic cars. We are
delighted that Silverstone Auctions have been chosen as
partners to facilitate the sale of the completed classic car
projects. The new twist in the series is that the owner gets
to choose which of the expert restorers completes their
project after the respective restorers have pitched their
expertise to win the job (‘Dragon’s Den’ in reverse). Within
each restorer’s pitch is the percentage of the sale price they
wish to take at the end, as payment for their services and
parts required. On this occasion, the production company
have selected a Porsche 928GT and its owner who will be
recorded during the restorer pitching process. The final part
of the programme is the sale where, on this occasion, the
Porsche will be filmed going through the auction capturing
the subsequent bidding and final result. Any bidders wishing
to remain anonymous can of course bid via telephone or
online. We believe the programme will be broadcast in early
2020.
This particular 928 GT was supplied new to its first owner
by Glenn Henderson of Edinburgh and is one of only 69
cars destined for the UK during 1989, the first year of
production. As a really early car, it remains fitted with
mechanical limited-slip differential which, with the benefit of
hindsight, has proven to be more reliable. It was purchased
by our vendor, a collector of the Porsche marque some
four years ago and has been stored for most of this time
occasionally coming out for MOT tests and being gently
exercised to maintain smooth running and good mechanical
health. As a particularly discerning collector, the car was
serviced prior to being put into dry storage.
Prior to purchase, this fantastic manual 928 GT benefitted
from an extensive engine rebuild and has covered less
than 2,000 miles since. The accompanying comprehensive
history file documents all work completed during that
rebuild including the relevant invoices. At the same time, it
was decided to replace the front brake discs and pads and
more recently, a new quality battery has been fitted with the
balance of the five-year warranty remaining.
The comprehensive history file is described as extensive by
our vendor, containing previous invoices, tax discs, MOT’s,
photographs and parts invoices for the engine rebuild and
the original service book with 21 stamps from both Porsche
main dealers and 928 specialists. Clearly this 928 has
been well maintained during its 30 years and benefited
from considerable expenditure. Despite the impressive
maintenance history, this wonderful car is displaying a few
symptoms of her 30 years and, consequently, is going to
enjoy some proper TLC from one of the UK’s top automotive
restorers. Not requiring any significant restoration, but
an assortment of both cosmetic and mechanical issues
associated with recommissioning that would frustrate any
fastidious owner.
We are confident that when returned from the Channel 4
team, recommissioned, serviced and enjoying a fresh MOT,
this will be one of the best examples of a 928 GT manual
you will find. We understand the Channel 4 film crew will be
present and filming when this car is offered, capturing the
bidding excitement that accompanies any of our star cars.

Estimate: £16,000 - £20,000
• The more powerful (13bhp) 298cc model assembled in
Brighton for the UK market
• Built from new in left-hand drive avoiding the need for a
(right-hand drive) balance weight
• Recent cosmetic refurbishment to include new two-tone
paintwork and fully detailed underside
• A new fabric sunroof fitted, new BF Goodrich tyres and
new exhaust
• A really lovely example. An appreciating classic. The
“Bubble” bubble shows no signs of bursting!
With Fiat’s 500 and 600 virtually monopolising the market
for lightweight family transport, ISO’s three-wheel Isetta
was not faring well, so parent company, BMW, stepped in to
help realise the microcar’s full potential. The little car was
redesigned around a one-cylinder 247cc BMW powerplant
although much of the Italian design remained intact, whilst
incorporating some clever BMW engineering. The result was
the BMW Isetta which made its debut in April 1955. Isettas
destined for export featured a single rear wheel, single-
hinged front door, a roll-top sunroof and fixed side windows.
From 1957 onwards, the car continued to be developed
culminating in the Isetta 300 fitted with a larger engine
(297cc) and sliding side windows.
Isetta of Great Britain Ltd. was one of many firms
worldwide licensed to build the Isetta, with production
commencing in a converted former locomotive works in
Brighton, where models in both left-hand and right-hand
drive were built. This left-hand drive BMW Isetta 300 is a
1962 example, assembled in Brighton as indicated by the
chassis plate, and thought to have been supplied to its
first customer by Claude Rye Ltd of Fulham. With right-
hand drive examples, the laws of physics suggested that
the combined weight of the driver and engine on the same
side of a three-wheeled vehicle may well lead to a touch of
instability, so a fairly heavy balance weight was added on
the left-hand side restoring the status quo, however, adding
quite a few kilos to a car that could only muster around
13bhp on a dry Sunday didn’t make much sense, so left-
hand drive cars were the popular choice.
Having undergone a recent full body respray, this little 300
now presents superbly in two-tone Rosso and Bianco. The
underside was fully cleaned and detailed, a new fabric roll-
top sunroof added, and fresh chrome, a new exhaust and
new BF Goodrich tyres fitted. This delightful little ‘bubble
car’ will put a smile on your face and the faces of onlookers
as you pottle to the local pub on those warm summer
nights.
