Everywhere you look on this outstanding Alfa Romeo SZ, there are signs of the painstaking care that has been lavished on it by its current owner, and it must be one of the best surviving examples of this charismatic Italian sports car. The Certificate of Authenticity from Alfa Classiche shows that it was built in May 1991 and given the build number 597. It was first registered in Japan in May 1994, and in October 1995 it passed to its second owner, who would keep it for the next 22 years. In 2018, the SZ was imported into the UK by a specialist and sold to its new owner, who has kept it ever since. In August that year, it was inspected by Alfa Aid and the work subsequently carried out included the fitment of a stainless-steel exhaust system, reconditioned steering rack, and modified cambelt pulleys and tensioner, as well as a new belt. The owner is a well-known suspension specialist and had the dampers re-valved, which has provided more suspension travel and more compliance, transforming the way in which the car drives, while retaining the original damper bodies and the standard hydraulic ride-height adjustment. The driving position has also been improved thanks to a spacer in the steering system that increases the distance between the steering wheel and the pedals. The modification looks original and has made the driving position much more comfortable. Due to the methacrylic resin body panels being stored outside during the factory build process, and taking in moisture as a result, SZ paintwork can often suffer from microblistering. To properly eliminate it on this car, the paint was stripped off all panels, which were then placed into a dehumidified room in order to fully dry out. A two-part resin sealer was applied and cured, before the panels were resprayed in their original colour. The aluminium roof section was also painted after removing two small pieces of corrosion, and the end result is a superb paint finish throughout. Other external work has included having the headlight units reconditioned and sealed, to avoid water ingress and fogging. Incredibly rare new door seals were fitted, and a set of new glass seals – now impossible to find – was commissioned from someone in Sweden who had remade the necessary tooling. Wheel spacers have also been fitted so that the three-piece alloys – which still display the etchings showing the name and size of the wheel – better fill the arches. An incredibly rare set of brand-new rear lights was fitted, the black electric aerial is still working and, unlike many SZs, this car even has the correct size and colour of panel rivets. Such fastidious attention to detail is apparent throughout this beautifully presented Alfa Romeo SZ, which is now being offered for sale with its rare tailored cover, complete with even rarer carry bag. It also still has its leather-bound handbook and both keys, and its extensive history file includes a period press pack and books. 1991 Alfa Romeo SZ The Classic Motor Hub If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

When discussing the world’s most significant sports cars, few models loom as large as the 365 GTB/4, who’s racing pedigree label “Daytona” was unofficially gained after Ferrari’s 1-2-3 finish in the 1967 24 Hours of Daytona. Despite Enzo Ferrari’s vision of the 365’s sole focus to become yet another brilliant road car produced by the factory, Luigi Chinetti saw great promise for the basis of a competition sports car. As both the founder of the North American Racing Team and Ferraris importer in the American market, Chinetti ordered an example from Scaglietti with lightweight aluminium bodywork and began works on his competition vision. Despite the car not finishing in the 1969 24 Hours of Le Mans, Chinetti’s creation showed great promise and he agreed to develop two more examples. The factory began to take interest soon after and in 1971, Ferrari’s Assistenza Clienti division began to assemble Competizione versions of the Daytona. Over the course of three years, 5 examples were produced each year in three respective series. In total, the Ferrari factory completed just 25 period Group IV competition Daytonas. Fifteen were completed by the factory, as well as two prototypes to almost production car specification and eight conversions by clientele workshops including Ecurie Francorchamps and N.A.R.T. The competition cars immediately yielded results with one car taking 4th overall in the 1971 Tour de France, a 5th overall finish at the 1972 24 Hours of Le Mans and class wins at Le Mans in 1972 and 1973. Another example finished 2nd overall at the 1979 24 hours of Daytona, over a decade after the car was first produced, proving once again the resilience of its performance. This particular example started life as a 365 GTB/4 'Daytona' in road trim and was delivered new to a Mr F. Grisard via Franco-Britannic Auto of Paris on the 3rd of September 1970. In 1983, the car was returned to Modena and converted to Group IV specification for historic racing. Comprehensively re-engineered, this example was converted to Series III Daytona Competition specification for Group IV race specification. These changes notably include an aluminium bonnet and boot lid along with front wing mounted ‘fences’. Whilst the overall look is mostly comprised of a wider arched Daytona, the reality of the conversion process is one of a hugely labour-intensive process. The transformation firstly required the addition of hundreds of hand drilled rivets to the now aluminium skinned bonnet. Both the bonnet and boot lid have period-correct leather tiedowns. To accommodate the competition width wheels, the body required wider flared metal arches both fore and aft. Centre lock wheels remained but are now significantly wider. The fuel filler was re-routed to an external filler cap on the offside rear. Below the car, and as per competition Daytonas, this example benefits from dual side-exit exhausts. At the front of the car, the nose too has been heavily reworked for larger lights behind Perspex covers. The glass windows have been replaced with lightweight Perspex sliding items and the doors stripped back. The engine features the Competizione-specification revised airbox and is understood to have been fitted with revised camshafts too. After the conversion was carried out, the car was kept in the south of France. On display for much of the 1980s at the Musée Automobile Cote d'Azur Mougins, the car would see minimal use. Between April and August of 2003, the former owner carried out a mechanical overhaul with Garage Calderoni of Lyon, where it was overhauled and repainted which is accurately documented within the car's history file. Later in 2006, the car moved to Germany where in October of the same year the transmission was renewed with a fresh clutch kit, from which the car has done only 100 kilometers since to date. Living its life in storage past this point, the car was then inspected by DK Engineering in 2014 at its storage facility in Petersfield on behalf of a very good client of the business. Finally, the decision to sell the car came about and just earlier this year, the car underwent a significant major service at DK Engineering with the invoice near to £30,000. Presenting 'on the button' and with a completely fresh exterior, this stunning conversion example of the famous 365 GTB/4 'Daytona' Competizione is available to view at our showrooms outside London immediately. 1970 Ferrari 365 GTB/4 Daytona D.K.

Having reasserted itself at the top of the supercar hierarchy with the first 'Boxer'-the 365GT/4 BB-Ferrari went one better with its successor, the 512BB introduced in October 1976 at the Paris Auto Show. For the new car, Ferrari abandoned its long-standing practice of denoting a model by the capacity of an individual cylinder and adopted the Dino-type nomenclature where '512' indicates 5 litres/12 cylinders. The increase in engine size from the original Boxer's 4.4-litres was made, not so much with increased power in mind, but to enable the 512BB to meet increasingly stringent emissions targets without a loss of performance. Displacement was increased by enlarging both bore and stroke, whilst in addition, the compression ratio was raised, and lubrication changed from wet to dry sump. Quoted power remained the same (but may have been more truthful) at 360bhp, and torque was improved to 332 lb/ft at 5000rpm which, coupled with revised gear ratios, made the 512 much more tractable. Styling changes were subtle, with a small chin spoiler added to the nose, NACA ducts added in front of the rear wheels, larger rear arches to accommodate wider rear wheels, and finally, four tail-lights replaced the six on the 365. 1978 Ferrari 512 BB Iconic Auctioneers Ltd If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

Introduced at the Paris Automobile Salon 1966, the Peugeot 204 cabriolet, penned by Pininfarina, was introduced, powered by a 1.1 litre 4 cylinder and, with its very harmonious and pleasing coachwork, the car immediately proved popular with the public. As one of 18’181 examples built, our car was delivered to Switzerland and 1st registered in May 1967. A number of years ago, the cute French was taken over by a garagiste and added to his private collection. In recent years the Peugeot was driven only sparingly but in 2019 it received a set of new tyres and in August this year it received a mechanical makeover. Currently the 204 is in technically good condition the interior is carefully maintained and the coachwork shows age-correct signs of use and repairs. The last MOT was completed in August 2024 allowing the new owner to register it immediately and enjoy the first days of spring.. 1967 Peugeot 204 Oldtimer Galerie International GmbH If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

As one of 18’181 examples built, our car was delivered to Switzerland and 1st registered in May 1967. A number of years ago, the cute French was taken over by a garagiste and added to his private collection. In recent years the Peugeot was driven only sparingly but in 2019 it received a set of new tyres and in August this year it received a mechanical makeover. Currently the 204 is in technically good condition the interior is carefully maintained and the coachwork shows age-correct signs of use and repairs. The last MOT was completed in August 2024 allowing the new owner to register it immediately and enjoy the first days of spring..

THE DEFINITIVE EARLY FERRARI It is well-documented that Ferrari’s first true standardized production model did not arrive until the 250 GT of the mid-1950s. So, in the preceding eight years of development, engineering, and competition victories, as the company grew from a fledgling outlier into a perennial powerhouse, what design constituted the closest approximation of a prototypical Ferrari sports car? While early Ferrari roadgoing chassis were bodied by a panoply of coachbuilders including Allemano, Vignale, and Ghia, perhaps the most definitive early road cars were the barchettas and berlinettas built by Touring of Milan. First sketched in 1949, these designs proved to be some of the most consistent coachwork variants through Maranello’s early years, stretching from the 166 iterations through the 212 Exports. It is interesting to note that while the Touring bodies were prevalent among the Colombo-engine models, Vignale and Pinin Farina were generally preferred for the Lampredi-engine competition sports cars. That is, with the exception of two very special cars built on the 340 America platform—the first “big-block” 4.1-liter Ferrari racing model offered for roadgoing clientele. ONE OF TWO Claiming a high degree of rarity, and attention by marque experts, this beautifully presented Ferrari is among the most unique of examples. Chassis number 0126 A is the second of just two 340 Americas that were bodied as berlinettas by Touring, and the seventh of eight total Touring-built examples. Also the eighth of 23 340 Americas built in total, this Ferrari was completed in July 1951, finished in Pale Grey. According to the combined information of an ACI estratto cronologico and a history report by marque expert Marcel Massini, the 340 America was sold new by Carrozzeria Touring and Enzo Ferrari to Cavaliere Tomaso Sebastiani, an engineer residing in Rome. Sebastiani reportedly returned 0126 A to the factory some 17 times over the following three years, strongly suggesting that the berlinetta was used in competition events despite the fact that no period racing record has yet been identified. In July 1954 Signor Sebastiani purchased a Pinin Farina-bodied 375 MM, essentially spelling the end of his time with 0126 A, and a few months later he sold the Touring berlinetta to Sidney Earl Chaplin, the son of comic silent film legend Charlie Chaplin, then living in Corseaux, Switzerland. Chaplin only kept the car for 10 months before selling it to the Marchese Carlo Pottino, who retained possession for roughly two years. In 1957 Pottino traded the Ferrari in to the Rome-based marque dealer Inigo Bernabei, and the following year he found a buyer on the American West Coast. As was frequently the case in the era of hot rods and an unfamiliarity with sophisticated Italian V-12s, the original engine was removed in favor of a Ford V-8. The 340 was then sold during the 1960s to an American naval officer stationed at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, who reportedly died in the Vietnam War in 1970. During the mid-1970s the Ferrari was stored in a barn in Washington before being discovered in 1976 by Gerald Roush, the renowned founder of the Ferrari Market Letter. Roush facilitated a sale to Peter Pheil of Atlanta, and the Ford engine was subsequently replaced with a type 128F engine from a 250 GT Series-II cabriolet. The berlinetta was then enjoyed in the Mille Miglia Storica in 1986 and 1987 before passing through the hands of dealers and investors for the next few years. The Ferrari continued to thrill drivers with additional runs in the Mille Miglia Storica in 1991 and 1992 before being sold to Southern California-based Ferrari restorer Steve Tillack in 1994. Tillack quickly re-sold the 340 to Rodolfo Junco de la Vega, a collector based in Mexico, and the America then attended the 1994 Monterey Car Weekend, including presentation at the Ferrari Club of America’s International Concours d’Elegance and participation in the Monterey Historic races at Laguna Seca. After being sold back to Tillack in March 1995, the Ferrari returned to action with successful runs at the 1995 Monterey Historics, the 1997 Mille Miglia Storica, and the 1997 Los Angeles Vintage Grand Prix. Following presentation at the 2001 FCA Field and Driving Concours in Texas, the car was offered for sale for a time, after which a new owner acquired a proper Lampredi engine originally used in a 250 Europa. This engine was then reportedly increased to a 4.1-liter displacement with dry-sump lubrication per 340 America racing specifications, and rebuilt in 2004 (along with the gearbox and various chassis components) by the well-known marque specialist Patrick Ottis. Acquired then by a collector in the UK, the Ferrari was offered in August 2005 at RM’s flagship Monterey sale and sold to an enthusiast based in Texas. The 340 was then exhibited at the 2009 Cavallino Classic, winning a Silver Award, and later that year the berlinetta was sold to the consignor, a discerning collector based in Southern California. Under current ownership the Ferrari was displayed at the 2009 Palm Springs Concours d’Elegance before undergoing a full rebuild of the engine to competition specifications in 2015 by Rod Drew’s respected Francorchamps of America of Costa Mesa, California. This work included the installation of new valves, high-compression pistons, connecting rods, and cylinder liners; while newly fabricated engine heads in the original style with new custom camshafts were also fitted. This engine configuration reportedly delivers a conspicuous bump in power over the original 340 America specifications. In August 2010 the beautiful Ferrari was presented at The Quail, A Motorsports Gathering, and in October 2017 the car was shown at the Art Center College of Design’s Car Classic. The berlinetta’s exhibition career then continued with presentation at the Concorso Ferrari at Pebble Beach in August 2019 and again in 2023. As one of only two 340 Americas clothed in Touring’s influential berlinetta coachwork, and one of the last examples of the body design across all Ferrari models, chassis number 0126 A is a highly desirable example of one of Maranello’s most definitive early designs. Poised for further exhibition or vintage touring event enjoyment, particularly given its rebuilt competition-specified engine, this rare and impressive Prancing Horse would make a striking addition to any collection of Italian thoroughbreds. 1951 Ferrari 340 America Touring Berlinetta RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

The Ferrari 250 GT/L Berlinetta Lusso is one of those rare models that transcend the automotive niche. It is not just recognized as one of the most beautiful Ferraris of all time, it is widely considered to be one of the most beautiful cars of all time, of any kind or era, period. Of course, basing the model on Maranello’s long-running 250 GT platform only helped seal its success. By the conclusion of Lusso production in 1964, the three-liter Colombo-designed V-12 engine had been in development in one form or another for 13 years, and the 250 GT chassis had steadily evolved over nine years of improvements. In the GT/L Berlinetta Lusso iteration, the chassis was even further developed with concentric rear springs and a Watts linkage on the rear axle, echoing the rear suspension set-up of Ferrari’s legendary sports-racing model, the 250 GTO. But it was undoubtedly the Lusso’s aesthetic presentation that so appealed to enthusiasts of every stripe, even catching the eye of non-automotive laymen. Bequeathed with a luxurious leather interior, the Lusso also featured a completely unique dash-panel arrangement that lent the car a distinctive character. The model’s crowning achievement, of course, was its splendid coachwork, penned by Pininfarina and realized in three dimensions by the brilliant Scaglietti. Gorgeous from every angle, and endowed with the most highly-developed iteration of the 250 GT chassis and engine, the Lusso deftly combined style and substance, seamlessly fusing power and panache. Could there be a more authentic testament to the Lusso’s brilliance than the praise of a former owner? Case in point, Sports Car Digest contributor and longtime Ferrari owner/enthusiast Stephen Mitchell recalled his first experience driving and later owning a 250 GT/L: “…the Lusso seemed like a wild animal that had slipped its leash—it revved to seven thousand and the fenders stretched forward hunting every nuance of the pavement in a predatory manner very different from what I had been used to… “In retrospect, I would say that the Lusso became a lifestyle; one that I was very grateful to experience.” LUSSO CHASSIS 5381 This beautifully presented and well-documented Ferrari claims a life of doting attention over the past 52 years, including former ownership by a well-known Canadian competition driver. According to a history report by marque expert Marcel Massini, chassis number 5381 was dispatched to Scaglietti for coachwork in November 1963, and it was completed three months later, specified for the European market with instruments in kilometers, and finished in Nocciola (hazelnut) paint over an interior trimmed with Rosso Vaumol leather by Connolly. Other than being distributed in March 1964 to marque dealer Renato Nocentini’s Garage La Rotunda in Prato, Italy, little is known about the 250 GT’s life over the following eight years, except that it was exported to North America circa 1969. As demonstrated by a file of documentation that stretches back to the early 1970s, in November 1972 the Ferrari was sold by Vinko Motors of Toronto to Egbert “Eppie” Wietzes, who had recently accomplished back-to-back Canadian Driving Championships in 1969 and 1970. Eventually inducted into the Canadian Motorsport Hall of Fame, Wietzes was active across numerous series during an impressive racing career that saw runs in Formula One, Can-Am, Formula 5000, and Trans-Am. By June 1974 the Lusso was owned by John Glover of Willowdale, Ontario, and from him the car passed three years later to Robert Young of Toronto. As demonstrated by invoices on file, Mr. Young regularly retained local Ferrari specialists Maranello Motors to source parts from Algar and perform service. The company continued to tend 5381 over the next 17 years through an additional ownership, by Jerry and Valerie Reckless, who purchased the car in 1980. During this period the Ferrari was cosmetically refinished in black over a black leather interior, and it was subsequently presented by Reckless at numerous events, including the FCA National Meeting and Concours d’Elegance in Watkins Glen, New York, in July 1985, where it earned a 3rd place award. In 1994 the 250 GT/L was sold to Maranello Motors and the dealer found a new owner in Lennox McNeely of Toronto. Mr. McNeely commissioned a significant restoration, retaining the Legendary Motorcar Company of Halton Hills to refinish the chassis, brightwork, wheels, and coachwork, while Alfieri International Automobiles of Toronto partially rebuilt the V-12 engine. The Lusso then won a Silver Award at the FCA National Meeting at Toronto and Mosport in June 1998. Three years later the car was acquired by Alfieri and quickly resold to another Canadian collector who refinished the coachwork in the current color. Acquired by the Dare to Dream Collection in September 2013, the Ferrari remains very striking in maroon paint over a black interior, and it benefits from steady service over the last 11 years, including a rebuild of the engine head in 2015 with new bearings, pistons, and timing chain; a new clutch; and the addition of an electric fuel pump. As a beautifully finished and historically interesting 250 GT/L that retains its matching-numbers engine, 5381 is a fantastic example of one of the most quintessential collector cars. It offers a delicious slice of what Mr. Mitchell referred to as “a lifestyle.” 1964 Ferrari 250 GT/L Berlinetta Lusso by Scaglietti RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

As a beautifully finished and historically interesting 250 GT/L that retains its matching-numbers engine, 5381 is a fantastic example of one of the most quintessential collector cars. It offers a delicious slice of what Mr. Mitchell referred to as “a lifestyle.” Other Cars from RM Sotheby's 1954-Fiat-8V-Berlinetta-Series-II-01.webp 1954-Fiat-8V-Berlinetta-Series-II-02.webp 1954-Fiat-8V-Berlinetta-Series-II-20.webp 1954-Fiat-8V-Berlinetta-Series-II-01.webp 1/20 1954 Fiat 8V Berlinetta Series II RM Sotheby's Germany 1965-Shelby-289-Cobra-01.webp 1965-Shelby-289-Cobra-02.webp 1965-Shelby-289-Cobra-15.webp 1965-Shelby-289-Cobra-01.webp 1/15 1965 Shelby 289 Cobra RM Sotheby's United States 1991-Porsche-911-Reimagined-by-Singer-01.webp 1991-Porsche-911-Reimagined-by-Singer-02.webp 1991-Porsche-911-Reimagined-by-Singer-15.webp 1991-Porsche-911-Reimagined-by-Singer-01.webp 1/15 1991 Porsche 911 Reimagined by Singer RM Sotheby's United Kingdom Last Featured Cars

Introduced in 1939, the Alfa Romeo 6C 2500 featured an increased engine displacement of nearly 2.5 liters, and the Super Sport iteration rode a shortened 2,700-milimeter wheelbase chassis while being equipped with a triple-carbureted intake. Standard closed coachwork for these desirable sporting chassis was built by Touring, although a minority of cars were bodied by Pinin Farina in open and closed forms. Widely regarded as a pivotal bridge between the company’s bygone hand-built pre-war era and the mechanized mass-production that soon followed, the 6C 2500 has evolved into one of Alfa Romeo’s most collectable vintage models, combining performance, style, and luxury. Claiming initial ownership by a significant Italian competition driver, and benefitting from a comprehensive restoration commissioned by the consignor, this rare Pinin Farina-built cabriolet is surely one of the finest 6C 2500 Super Sport examples in existence. According to the records of marque historian Angelo Tito Anselmi, chassis number 915871 was built in October 1949, specified as a short-wheelbase Super Sport chassis and equipped with engine number 928182. The Alfa Romeo was dispatched to Pinin Farina’s workshop for the mounting of special cabriolet coachwork that is believed to be common to just three or four examples. While Pinin Farina bodied as many as 123 different Super Sports from August 1942 onward with a variety of open coachwork designs, just a handful featured this car’s unusual front fascia, chiefly characterized by a lower enveloping treatment with larger inset grille sections, a sculpted hood and rear haunches, and a license plate cut-out in the trunk lid. In April 1950 the 6C 2500 was delivered to its first owner, Count Goffredo Zehender of Milan. Count Zehender had long flourished in Italian motorsports, joining the Alfa Romeo factory team in 1929, and moving on to stints with Maserati and Mercedes-Benz during the 1930s while participating in the 24 Hours of Le Mans twice. The elegant but sporty 6C was surely the perfect ride of choice for the man who managed the Scuderia Inter racing team, one of the first privateer teams to campaign Ferrari sports cars. In 1953 the 6C 2500 was imported to the United States by an armed forces serviceman who registered the car in California. Four years later the cabriolet was sold to Robert Allinger of Saratoga, California, an independent body builder who created exteriors for experimental high-speed dry-lake racers. After 12 years of ownership, Mr. Allinger sold the Alfa Romeo in August 1969 to Alfred “Wayne” Williams of Moreno Valley, California. Mr. Williams drove the 6C for a few years before storing the car in 1974, and it remained carefully domiciled for many years. In 2010, after a remarkable 41-year period of single-owner care, Mr. Williams sold the cabriolet to Lawrence Zinkin of Northern California. Acquired by the consignor in January 2013, the unrestored longtime California car was treated to a comprehensive refurbishment by European craftsmen that took seven years to complete. Due to many years of dedicated care, the 6C displayed remarkably original and rust-free condition, and required only very minimal welding repairs on the sills. All of the original parts were available and intact for rebuild, like the factory wheel covers with brass centers; or at least as templates for the production of accurate facsimiles, such as the exhaust (which was meticulously copied). The engine and gearbox were dispatched to a specialist in Belgium who performed a complete rebuild. The carburetors, instruments, and wiring loom were entrusted to Italian specialists, while the suspension elements, rear axle, steering components, and radiator were rebuilt by an expert in Germany. Motorima in Sweden, Scandinavia’s leading specialist in Italian marques, was commissioned to refinish the rare Pinin Farina cabriolet coachwork, which was rejuvenated with a bare-metal refinish in grigio metallizzato. Motorima also re-chromed the brightwork, including the intricate 98-piece grille. Finally, an expert upholsterer in Norway re-trimmed the interior in forest green leather and fitted a new complementary green-grey soft top. Upon completion of the restoration in 2020, the 6C 2500 was accepted for exhibition at the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance’s special Pininfarina class, which was to celebrate the storied carrozzeria’s 90th anniversary. Unfortunately, the 2020 event was cancelled due to COVID, and lingering travel restrictions prevented the consignor from attending the concours a year later. As such, this phenomenally restored cabriolet still awaits its major concours debut, a pleasure that the next caretaker can certainly look forward to. Having accrued only 387 kilometers (~240 miles) since the refurbishment, this Alfa Romeo is ideally prepared for touring enjoyment. Given its rarity and extremely high level of presentation, not to mention the continued presence of its matching-numbers engine and coachwork, the exquisite cabriolet should anticipate a warm welcome at the world’s most distinguished concours d’elegance. 1949 Alfa Romeo 6C 2500 Super Sport Cabriolet by Pinin Farina RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

Let’s be honest: you don’t buy a car like this with your head. You buy it with your heart. And that heart starts beating faster the moment you see this stunning Alfa Romeo 2000 Spider – designed by Carrozzeria Touring in an era when beauty was still drawn by hand. Under the hood lies the legendary 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine with twin overhead camshafts – ahead of its time and beloved for its character. 115 hp, a five-speed manual gearbox, rear-wheel drive. Pure mechanics. No filters, no frills. Just your right foot, the sound of the engine, and a horizon full of curves. This particular Spider was born on February 10, 1961, and delivered new in Italy. In 1995, it found its way to the Netherlands, where it underwent a full nut-and-bolt restoration between 2006 and 2008. Since then, it lived the life of a museum piece – quite literally: stored in a private collection, rarely driven, like a bottle of Barolo no one dared to uncork. Until now. We’ve awakened her. New fluids, new spark, new love. She’s been fully brought up to date technically, ready for a second life on the most beautiful roads. What you feel when you get behind the wheel? That’s not nostalgia. That’s passion. Pure and unfiltered. This isn’t a car for everyone. This is a car for someone who understands that style doesn’t follow – it leads. That patina is something you earn. And that sometimes, you shouldn’t think – you should feel. 1961 Alfa Romeo 2000 Touring Spider Cool Classic Club If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

This is a 1 of 6 'Banmoco' Convertible Conversion, carried out by Paul Banham and his company 'Banham Conversions otherwise known as Banmoco, dating back to the early 70's. According to the records, only 2 Automatic cars were converted and 4 Manual cars, making this Automatic quite a rare opportunity for somebody. This particular example recently enjoyed an 8 page article in Aston Martin Driver Magazine in November 2022, again signifying its rarity. There can't be many Aston Martin' out there as rare? This particular example is also one of the last DB series six-cylinder Aston Martin models created, making it an even more special find. Banham Conversions were extremely well know for their unique and unusual convertibles when the typical Manufacturer did not offer at the time. Brand such as Jaguar, Aston Martin, Rolls-Royce and Ferrari models all benefited from Banmoco conversions prior to their launch by the manufacturers. YKT99J is presented in very good condition all round, benefitting from a documented restoration. Within the paperwork for the car is a document restoration picture process, a personalised book which has been compiled by the Owner, along with features within several Aston Martin magazines and books. 1970 Aston Martin Vantage DBS 6 Volante Hemmels Vault If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

The notice and take down procedure is described here: https://www.speedholics.com/copyright This is a 1 of 6 'Banmoco' Convertible Conversion, carried out by Paul Banham and his company 'Banham Conversions otherwise known as Banmoco, dating back to the early 70's. According to the records, only 2 Automatic cars were converted and 4 Manual cars, making this Automatic quite a rare opportunity for somebody. This particular example recently enjoyed an 8 page article in Aston Martin Driver Magazine in November 2022, again signifying its rarity. There can't be many Aston Martin' out there as rare? This particular example is also one of the last DB series six-cylinder Aston Martin models created, making it an even more special find. Banham Conversions were extremely well know for their unique and unusual convertibles when the typical Manufacturer did not offer at the time. Brand such as Jaguar, Aston Martin, Rolls-Royce and Ferrari models all benefited from Banmoco conversions prior to their launch by the manufacturers. YKT99J is presented in very good condition all round, benefitting from a documented restoration. Within the paperwork for the car is a document restoration picture process, a personalised book which has been compiled by the Owner, along with features within several Aston Martin magazines and books.

Over the past 59 years, the E-Type has fulfilled its calling: to drive, amaze, and spread smiles. With its long nose, curvaceous hips, and sensual lines, draped in Dark Blue with a cognac leather interior, this car is truly in its element. A refined lady, but one who might give you a mischievous glance across the Christmas table while you’re deep in conversation with your father-in-law. Elegant, but with an edge. The E-Type Series I made its European debut on March 15, 1961, at the Geneva Motor Show and in April that same year in the United States at the New York Auto Show. Did you know that Enzo Ferrari actually never said this was the most beautiful car ever? Our example? Straight out of Q Branch! Recently nut & bolt restored and delivered directly from the restorer to us, with some amazing upgrades. Among its repertoire, it has new K&N air filters, modern disc brakes, shock absorbers, 123 ignition, and a classic radio with Bluetooth for "some banging tunes." Great to have, although we prefer the thrilling sound of this Jaaaaaag! In addition, it boasts matching numbers and retains its original exterior color, tastefully paired with the cognac interior, tailored with the precision only a Savile Row tailor would know. Planning to take a ski trip in an E-Type this year or head straight to southern Spain? This beauty will certainly not let you down. Only then will you understand why this gem is also high on our personal favorites list. 1967 Jaguar E-Type Series 1 OTS Cool Classic Club If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

The 1980s provided some fantastic Touring Car racing as the manufacturers’ teams put serious effort into trying to win races with their Group A-spec cars built to a very high standard with serious budgets to match. The Sierra Cosworth comfortably exceeded Ford's wishes, and went on to become one of the most successful Touring Car racers of all time, winning races all over the world. Offered here is a 'Group A' RS500 that was built originally in Hong Kong for the 1988 season for Eddie Lee. Subsequently, a few owners enjoyed the car in Hong Kong during the 90s and the first UK-owner was the ex-BTCC Racer, Graham Hathaway. In 2011, the well known and respected Ian Donaldson of Oakfield’s, who specialise in the procurement and sale of important racing cars, then bought the car and sent it to Ian Gwynn (BGM Sport) for a restoration. Jim Whelan then purchased the car and he invested heavily in the RS500 during his ownership including a full engine rebuild by Geoff Page Racing. At this time the car was fitted with a new engine loom and Life Racing ECU to bring the car to more modern standards. In 2014, ownership passed to Paul Smith who enjoyed a few sessions with it and asked ex-Mountune employee, Dave Hill, to rebuild the engine for him during his ownership. In 2017, the car passed to our vendor, who has kept it in his significant private collection with no competition just occasional light track-day use. Supplied with previous HSCC papers, the car starts on the button and has recently had a very expensive new 'bag tank' fuel-cell fitted. In summary, to replicate a car to this specification would cost you almost twice today's estimate. Combine this with the fact a Group A RS500 can offer you access to some of the best motorsport available, and that this one has been owned by some of the best-known and respected people within the world of motorsport, this car offers truly superb value for money and will reward a closer inspection. 1988 Ford Sierra RS500 Group A Iconic Auctioneers Ltd If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.
