  • 1980-bmw-m5

    Among the rarest models BMW has ever built, and the first to be created entirely under the purview of its elite M division, the M1 is a hand-built homologation special developed in the late 1970s as the German automaker sought to compete at higher levels of motorsports. Intent on using a mid-engine layout, BMW initially contracted Lamborghini to develop the M1 chassis, and its tubular steel spaceframe is said to have been devised with input from noted Italian engineer Giampaolo Dallara. Lamborghini’s ensuing financial struggles delayed development and dissolved the partnership, but a group of disenfranchised engineers from the Italian automaker banded together and founded their own company to complete the work. The final product was impressive, featuring a rigid spaceframe and sophisticated, double-wishbone suspension with adjustable coil springs and Bilstein gas-filled dampers. Angular fiberglass bodywork by noted designer Giorgetto Giugiaro gave the M1 visual appeal commensurate with its performance potential. Initially completed by Karosserie Baur on 28 May 1980, this stunning Red-over-black M1 is presented today in stunningly preserved condition from over 45 years within the care of its original owner. According to the BMW M1 Register, M1 chassis 239 is the 173rd street car produced in the series, one of 71 cars finished in Red, and the first of only four M1 examples sold to Mexico. An accompanying German registration document shows that the consignor initially purchased the car from BMW in Munich on 23 July 1980. The manufacturer subsequently registered this car with the export plate “Z686-6571” and it was later dispatched to the consignor’s Mexico home via BMW Mexico-Bavaria Motors S.A. Since new, the consignor has added fewer than 7,000 kilometers (~4,350 miles) to this M1, and as such the car retains an astounding degree of well-preserved original finishes throughout. Despite the low mileage and careful use, the M1 and other cars in his stable were always maintained and regularly run to ensure they were in healthy mechanical condition. The car is accompanied by the original 1980 German registration document which notes its purchase by the consignor. It seems fair to say that this M1 is one of exceptionally few examples of this rare homologation special which remain in the ownership of their original buyers. Now 45 years onward from the model’s debut and still with exceptionally low mileage, this offering could possibly be an unrepeatable opportunity for the collector hunting a preserved, reference-grade M1. The ambitions of the production BMW M1 was not to be a refined GT but simply the most efficient sports car of its time. Soberness and functionalism have always been notable keywords within BMW, and the stunning M1 was no exception to the rule. It is, without a doubt, the ultimate driving machine. 1980 BMW M1 RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

  • 1988 Ferrari 328 GTB

    Model History Limited production GTB, designed by Pininfarina and introduced at the September 1985 Frankfurt Motor Show, this 1988.5 Ferrari 328 GT Berlinetta is one of 1,344 units produced. Now showing only 16,095 miles from new, with a Ferrari Classiche ‘Red Book’ certification, a Ferrari Club of America 2021 Platinum Award, original owners’ books and jack kit, tools, interior light and recent major service records. The name '328' was attributed to its 3.2-liter eight-cylinder engine, which is always the focal point for Ferrari. The transversely mounted DOHC V8 engine sported an enlarged bore and stroke with Bosch K-Jetronic Fuel injection and could produce 270 horsepower and maximum 163 mph. Standard was a five-speed manual transaxle with the 280 GTO adapted steering rack in the 1988.5 and later cars, a tubular-steel chassis with an independent suspension with anti-roll bars and disc brakes made for one of the most balanced Ferrari’s of its era. Other performance equipment includes a limited-slip differential, convex 16-inch Speedline five-spoke alloy wheels, the iconic Ferrari gated shifter, a Blaupunkt cassette stereo, power windows and standard air conditioning. Pininfarina, once again, penned a masterful sports car which was a more aerodynamic and elegant version of the predecessor 308. A GTB and GTS version was produced between 1985-1990, but it was the later GT Berlinetta’s that had the more praised combination of style and performance. The Italian Coachbuilders designed the body with featured pop-up headlights, integrated fog lights, side air intakes, dual side mirrors, a black spoiler mounted over the rear window, and quad exhaust tips exiting through the rear valance. Interiors in both the GTB and GTS were revamped, again inspired by the 288 GTO, with a redesigned center console, improved switchgear, more plush seats and a larger feeling cabin. Our Subject Vehicle Now offered out of Monterey, CA is this 4-Owner Ferrari with a documented 16k-miles from new. This unrestored 328 is a matching numbers example with the coveted Ferrari Classiche ‘Red Book’ Certification on hand to prove all of its factory parts and components are original. Originally delivered with Rosso Cora exterior paint over Beige leather interior, this car is accompanied by its original owner’s manual, warranty and service booklet, dealer directory, leather pouch, interior map lamp with pouch, a set of reproduction tools purchased from Ferrari North America and the original jack kit with correct bulb holder, spark plugs and auxiliary belts. A major service was performed in May 2017 from Grand Prix Classics in Campbell, Ca and a Ferrari Club of America Platinum was awarded at the 2021 Concorso Italiano event during Monterey Car Week.

  • 1966-aston-martin-db6-mk1-vantage

    A fine, low ownership, low-mileage example of a first-generation DB6 to Vantage specification and fitted with the desirable manual ZF gearbox. Refreshed in the past and appears to have been fastidiously maintained by well known marque experts all its days. The culmination of Aston Martin’s long running line of DB six-cylinder sports saloons and thus considered by many to be the last 'real' Aston, the DB6 was introduced in 1965, updating the DB5. Aware that increased headroom and legroom was required to extend the car’s appeal to a wider market, Aston Martin lengthened the wheelbase by 4" and undertook an extensive re-style, incorporating a more raked windscreen, raised roofline and reshaped rear quarter windows. Although still recognisably related to the original touring-styled DB4 of 1958, the DB6 abandoned the Superleggera body structure of its predecessors in favour of a conventional steel fabrication. Opening front quarter lights made a reappearance, but the major change was at the rear where a Kamm-style tail with spoiler improved the aerodynamics, greatly enhancing stability at high speeds. The Tadek Marek-designed six-cylinder engine had been enlarged to 3,995cc for the preceding DB5 and remained unchanged. Power output on triple SU carburettors was 282bhp, rising to 325bhp in Vantage specification. Borg-Warner automatic transmission was offered alongside the standard ZF 5-speed gearbox and for the first time, there was optional power-assisted steering. According to the accompanying BMI Heritage Certificate, DB6/2475/R was built in right-hand drive to Vantage specification, finished in Silver Birch over a black leather interior, despatched to WH Benjam Ltd in Plymouth and onwards to its first lucky owner. In 1990, it was purchased by the owner prior to our vendor from Pugsley & Lewis and from the extensive history file, it would appear that the Aston was fastidiously maintained by marque specialists Pugsley & Lewis and A J Barnard Engineering, corroborated by invoices totalling over £23,000, some £9,700 being spent in 2006 alone. The car was fully restored between 2008 and 2010 by Aston Workshop and Pugsley & Lewis with a colour change to Slate Grey, invoices on file and there is a DVD recording the whole process. More recently, the ZF gearbox was fully overhauled and there is correspondence from the Aston Martin factory thanking the owner for allowing his DB6 to be used for assessing a new gear set design for the ZF ’box. EJX 342D was purchased by our vendor from the Aston Workshop in October 2017 with an indicated mileage of 68,733 from new, with less than 5,000 of these added since 1991. Recent maintenance includes a full service by Hilton and Moss in July 2023 (£10,000) including renewing rear seals, new hubs, electric window refurb and new tyres, and later attention in February 2025 by Farringtons of Knutsford included a full service and the wheel arches and under body were ice blasted and then retreated. The car is supplied with its V5C, the aforementioned history file, a quantity of expired MOTs dating back to 1991 and the current MOT valid until 2nd April 2026. Whilst this attractive Aston would make an impressive addition to any Collection and would surely be welcome at prestigious classic car events anywhere, we can't help feeling that its best years are still ahead. Make no mistake, these are now rare cars. The factory only produced 268 Mk1 DB6 Saloons to a Vantage specification and very few of these were fitted with the manual 5-speed gearbox - the ultimate incarnation! This is a great opportunity to own a classic Aston which is totally usable and a delight to drive.. 1966 Aston Martin DB6 Mk1 Vantage Iconic Auctioneers Ltd 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 A fine, low ownership, low-mileage example of a first-generation DB6 to Vantage specification and fitted with the desirable manual ZF gearbox. Refreshed in the past and appears to have been fastidiously maintained by well known marque experts all its days. The culmination of Aston Martin’s long running line of DB six-cylinder sports saloons and thus considered by many to be the last 'real' Aston, the DB6 was introduced in 1965, updating the DB5. Aware that increased headroom and legroom was required to extend the car’s appeal to a wider market, Aston Martin lengthened the wheelbase by 4" and undertook an extensive re-style, incorporating a more raked windscreen, raised roofline and reshaped rear quarter windows. Although still recognisably related to the original touring-styled DB4 of 1958, the DB6 abandoned the Superleggera body structure of its predecessors in favour of a conventional steel fabrication. Opening front quarter lights made a reappearance, but the major change was at the rear where a Kamm-style tail with spoiler improved the aerodynamics, greatly enhancing stability at high speeds. The Tadek Marek-designed six-cylinder engine had been enlarged to 3,995cc for the preceding DB5 and remained unchanged. Power output on triple SU carburettors was 282bhp, rising to 325bhp in Vantage specification. Borg-Warner automatic transmission was offered alongside the standard ZF 5-speed gearbox and for the first time, there was optional power-assisted steering. According to the accompanying BMI Heritage Certificate, DB6/2475/R was built in right-hand drive to Vantage specification, finished in Silver Birch over a black leather interior, despatched to WH Benjam Ltd in Plymouth and onwards to its first lucky owner. In 1990, it was purchased by the owner prior to our vendor from Pugsley & Lewis and from the extensive history file, it would appear that the Aston was fastidiously maintained by marque specialists Pugsley & Lewis and A J Barnard Engineering, corroborated by invoices totalling over £23,000, some £9,700 being spent in 2006 alone. The car was fully restored between 2008 and 2010 by Aston Workshop and Pugsley & Lewis with a colour change to Slate Grey, invoices on file and there is a DVD recording the whole process. More recently, the ZF gearbox was fully overhauled and there is correspondence from the Aston Martin factory thanking the owner for allowing his DB6 to be used for assessing a new gear set design for the ZF ’box. EJX 342D was purchased by our vendor from the Aston Workshop in October 2017 with an indicated mileage of 68,733 from new, with less than 5,000 of these added since 1991. Recent maintenance includes a full service by Hilton and Moss in July 2023 (£10,000) including renewing rear seals, new hubs, electric window refurb and new tyres, and later attention in February 2025 by Farringtons of Knutsford included a full service and the wheel arches and under body were ice blasted and then retreated. The car is supplied with its V5C, the aforementioned history file, a quantity of expired MOTs dating back to 1991 and the current MOT valid until 2nd April 2026. Whilst this attractive Aston would make an impressive addition to any Collection and would surely be welcome at prestigious classic car events anywhere, we can't help feeling that its best years are still ahead. Make no mistake, these are now rare cars. The factory only produced 268 Mk1 DB6 Saloons to a Vantage specification and very few of these were fitted with the manual 5-speed gearbox - the ultimate incarnation! This is a great opportunity to own a classic Aston which is totally usable and a delight to drive..

  • 1960 Ferrari 250 GT SWB Berlinetta by Scaglietti

    The essence of the Ferrari 250 GT SWB Berlinetta was a road car that could also hold its own against the best of the contemporary racecar counterparts of the era. Following on from the 250 GT Berlinetta ‘Tour de France’, which won the race after which it was named back-to-back in 1957 and 1958, came the more agile, more efficient passo corto. It featured a shorter wheelbase at 2,400 millimetres, housed a lighter chassis, and the shape was more aerodynamic than its already-successful predecessor. Beneath the gorgeous Scaglietti-constructed bodywork lay a 3-litre example of the revered Colombo V-12. In standard specification, the motor delivered up to 240 brake horsepower via a four-speed manual gearbox. To slow it all down, for the first time in Ferrari history, a model was fitted with disc brakes as standard. Unveiled at the 1959 Paris Salon, the 250 GT SWB could be ordered by customers in either a road-biased specification, or in “Competizione” trim. The latter arrived with alloy bodywork, and a “B” variant of the Tipo 168 engine, which was equipped with more aggressive Weber carburettors, and revised camshaft profiles. A contingent of these SWBs would soon travel to lockout the top four positions in the Grand Touring 3-litre class in the 1960 edition of the Le Mans 24 Hours. For the next running of the celebrated enduro, an SWB finished a remarkable 3rd overall. Arguably, the model’s finest performance on track came in the 1960 Tourist Trophy bout at the Goodwood Motor Circuit. Aboard a privateer machine entered by Rob Walker, driver Sir Stirling Moss romped to an utterly dominant victory all while listening to the circuit commentary via the car’s radio. The Briton raced SWBs a total of eight times, remarkably winning on seven occasions. For good measure, the car returned to the Tour de France road race to earn three further triumphs. According to the research of marque historian Marcel Massini, chassis 2067 GT is the 34th 250 SWB completed out of a run of 165 cars produced between 1959 and 1962. This left-hand-drive example was ordered with a steel body and with Borletti instruments showing in kilometres. The V-12 engine and gearbox were completed on 9 August 1960, and overall construction finished two days later, when the Certificate of Origin was issued. This car, originally finished in Grigio over a Nero Connolly leather interior, as per a copy of the factory build sheet, was first registered in Milan. It was sold new from the Ferrari factory to Mr Franco Caimi for the princely sum of 5,500,000 Italian lire. This 250 SWB remained with its first keeper until the end of 1967, whereupon it was sold locally to Mr Gastone Crepaldi, owner of the city’s official Ferrari dealership. During his custodianship, chassis 2067 GT was rebodied by Modena-based Carrozzeria Sports Cars, which was co-founded by racing driver Piero Drogo, who finished 8th in the 1960 Italian Grand Prix. In keeping with changing styles, the car was clothed in much more angular, wedge-shaped bodywork. The fresh suit won over a new French keeper, who purchased chassis 2067 GT in June 1969. The following year brought another owner before the car changed hands again in 1972. Come 1974, heir to a global alcohol distributor, François de Gunzburg—from a family of Russian bankers, he would later co-invest in property with his friend, the Fiat and Ferrari chief Gianni Agnelli—buys the car for his wife, Mercedes de Gunzburg. Four years later, she would sell the 250 SWB to Parisian car dealer Patrice d'Ibarolla. Then, this example was sold to UK-based racer and collector Rob Lamplough in mid-1978. He commissioned the car to be rebodied again, with the 250 SWB returning to Modena for Carrozzeria Allegretti to dress it as a 250 GTO. It was then ready for competition. Notably, ex-sportscar and European Formula 5000 racer Mr Lamplough entered the car at the Silverstone Historic Festival race meeting in 1992. Awarded FIA historic race papers, true to the original brief for 250 SWBs, this car has also contested numerous road rallies, and has fittingly taken part in the famed Tour Auto—the continuation event inspired by the original Tour de France. Later in 1992, the car was sold to another English owner, who commissioned chassis 2067 GT to be fully restored and redressed once again as a 250 SWB, albeit this time featuring an alloy body that was painted in gun metal grey and featured a blue stripe. The car was entered in further motorsport events, before being sold in 1997 to an attorney in Washington, DC. A Belgian owner then finally had the car returned to its factory steel body specification in 2009, the complete and extensively photographed restoration carried out by Carrozzeria Autosport of Bachelli & Villa in Bastiglia, near Modena. Accordingly, this car was then certified with coveted “Red Book” status by Ferrari Classiche in 2013. After a stint with a French owner, chassis 2067 GT was sold to UK-based classic Ferrari dealer Talacrest. Then, in 2014, the car was purchased by its consigning owner. Under their ownership, the seats were retrimmed in late-2013 to the current reddish hue, plus racing harnesses installed by GTO Engineering for a total of £9,814. The marque specialist also completed a thorough service in the summer of 2020 at a cost of £6,202, before repairing the original fuel tank earlier this year. Documented with a Massini history report that records a direct chain of ownership over its rich 64-year life, this short-wheelbase 250 GT is further accompanied by a copy of its original factory build sheet and coveted “Red Book”. As an example of one of Ferrari’s most famous designs, this car is ready to be enjoyed as part of a collection, on show at marque events, or entered into its latest competitive outings. 1960 Ferrari 250 GT SWB Berlinetta by Scaglietti RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

  • 1965 Ferrari 275 GTB 2

    By the mid-1960s it seemed Ferrari could do no wrong, winning on all fronts from sports car racing to Grands Prix and producing the most beautiful cars in the world. Ferrari's dual-purpose cars seemed unstoppable combining race-winning performance with film star good looks. As the legendary 250 GT LWB "Tour de France" gave way to the marvelous 250 GT SWB Berlinetta - and led ultimately to the awe-inspiring 250 GTO in 1962. Introduced at the 1964 Paris Auto Show, the new 275 GTB gave Ferrari a chance to incorporate all the best characteristics of this fabled bloodline. Many consider the resulting car to be the finest production Ferrari ever built, combining the thoroughbred mechanical pedigree of its road racing forebears with sufficient creature comforts to make the 275 GTB a superlative grand touring automobile. Under the skin, the 275 GTB incorporated the best Ferrari chassis design, starting with the oval section tube backbone chassis. Independent suspension was fitted all around for the first time on a road-going Ferrari, and a 5-speed gearbox was also included in the specification. The transmission was mounted at the rear of the car for improved weight distribution in a transaxle. Now enlarged to 3.3 litres, the 60-degree V12 engine remained the familiar Colombo type producing 280bhp at 7,600rpm. A higher, claimed 300bhp, state of tune was available by employing six Weber carburettors instead of the standard three. In addition, customers purchasing a 275 GTB for road use could also specify aluminium coachwork. This coachwork was all new too, a stunning Pininfarina design that evoked the graceful lines of the legendary 250 GTO. A long bonnet combined with a Kamm-tail rear body created a striking profile, while vents in the front wings gave the car a muscular edge. Vents in the sail panels added to the effect and paid tribute to the 250 GT 'Tour de France' Berlinettas. A smoothly integrated rear spoiler helped give the car a strong visual identity. Although the 275 GTB was a car of many firsts, it was also the last car that could be considered a true coach built road/race Berlinetta in the great Ferrari tradition. Although most lived their lives on the streets, many led a dual life, winning on road courses and hill climbs on the weekend, while providing stylish and exciting transportation during the week. Delivered new to Luigi Chinetti Motors in New York City, this particular 275 GTB was built to short nose specifications with three carburettors, steel bodywork, and was fitted with power windows. Finished in Rosso Cina over Nero (VM 8500), it was sold new by Chinetti to a Mr Carl Iverson. By 1974, the 275 GTB had moved across the country and is noted as being owned by Carl E. Drake Jr. of San Francisco by that point. In 1982, the 275 came into the ownership of Robert Dorris of Fort Worth, Texas. No stranger to Ferrari’s, Dorris’ father had previously owned a 212/225 Inter Coupe with Vignale coachwork (chassis no. 0179 EL). The next year, the 275 GTB was advertised for sale in the Ferrari Market Letter by Robert Dorris. It was described as being finished in red with black leather, and a “nice original car with only two previous owners”. In June of 1986, the 275 GTB found a new owner with John R.

Gratama showed at the 11th Modena Motorsport Track Days at the Nürburgring in June 2005, winning his class in the Concours. The car returned to the same event in 2007. In 2015, the 275 GTB was granted Ferrari Classiche certification, confirming that it retains its original chassis, engine, bodywork and has been fitted with a replacement gearbox of the correct type and Borrani RW 4039 wheels. Remaining in the Netherlands until 2016, that same year the car was acquired by the previous owner and imported to the U.K., where it remains today. Upon its arrival in the U.K., it was entrusted to Bob Houghton for a total and comprehensive rebuild at a total cost of over £78,000. Seldom driven over the succeeding five years, it returned to Houghton for further service work in 2021 which included fitting a new master cylinder, new exhausts, and an oil and filters change. It has been driven less than 500 miles since. In addition to the aforementioned Classiche binder, the car is accompanied by a history file, owner's manuals, and tool kit. DK sold this example to its current custodian in 2022 and since then the car has been used sparingly. Presenting as optioned when new, this 275 GTB is fabulous form, having never been fully restored and still retaining its original interior.

The notice and take down procedure is described here: https://www.speedholics.com/copyright By the mid-1960s it seemed Ferrari could do no wrong, winning on all fronts from sports car racing to Grands Prix and producing the most beautiful cars in the world. Ferrari's dual-purpose cars seemed unstoppable combining race-winning performance with film star good looks. As the legendary 250 GT LWB "Tour de France" gave way to the marvelous 250 GT SWB Berlinetta - and led ultimately to the awe-inspiring 250 GTO in 1962. Introduced at the 1964 Paris Auto Show, the new 275 GTB gave Ferrari a chance to incorporate all the best characteristics of this fabled bloodline. Many consider the resulting car to be the finest production Ferrari ever built, combining the thoroughbred mechanical pedigree of its road racing forebears with sufficient creature comforts to make the 275 GTB a superlative grand touring automobile. Under the skin, the 275 GTB incorporated the best Ferrari chassis design, starting with the oval section tube backbone chassis. Independent suspension was fitted all around for the first time on a road-going Ferrari, and a 5-speed gearbox was also included in the specification. The transmission was mounted at the rear of the car for improved weight distribution in a transaxle. Now enlarged to 3.3 litres, the 60-degree V12 engine remained the familiar Colombo type producing 280bhp at 7,600rpm. A higher, claimed 300bhp, state of tune was available by employing six Weber carburettors instead of the standard three. In addition, customers purchasing a 275 GTB for road use could also specify aluminium coachwork. This coachwork was all new too, a stunning Pininfarina design that evoked the graceful lines of the legendary 250 GTO. A long bonnet combined with a Kamm-tail rear body created a striking profile, while vents in the front wings gave the car a muscular edge. Vents in the sail panels added to the effect and paid tribute to the 250 GT 'Tour de France' Berlinettas. A smoothly integrated rear spoiler helped give the car a strong visual identity. Although the 275 GTB was a car of many firsts, it was also the last car that could be considered a true coach built road/race Berlinetta in the great Ferrari tradition. Although most lived their lives on the streets, many led a dual life, winning on road courses and hill climbs on the weekend, while providing stylish and exciting transportation during the week. Delivered new to Luigi Chinetti Motors in New York City, this particular 275 GTB was built to short nose specifications with three carburettors, steel bodywork, and was fitted with power windows. Finished in Rosso Cina over Nero (VM 8500), it was sold new by Chinetti to a Mr Carl Iverson. By 1974, the 275 GTB had moved across the country and is noted as being owned by Carl E. Drake Jr. of San Francisco by that point. In 1982, the 275 came into the ownership of Robert Dorris of Fort Worth, Texas. No stranger to Ferrari’s, Dorris’ father had previously owned a 212/225 Inter Coupe with Vignale coachwork (chassis no. 0179 EL). The next year, the 275 GTB was advertised for sale in the Ferrari Market Letter by Robert Dorris. It was described as being finished in red with black leather, and a “nice original car with only two previous owners”. In June of 1986, the 275 GTB found a new owner with John R. Anderson of Lewisville, Texas. It remained in Texas for the next seven years, returning to Europe in 1993 when purchased by Wolter Gratama. Gratama showed at the 11th Modena Motorsport Track Days at the Nürburgring in June 2005, winning his class in the Concours. The car returned to the same event in 2007. In 2015, the 275 GTB was granted Ferrari Classiche certification, confirming that it retains its original chassis, engine, bodywork and has been fitted with a replacement gearbox of the correct type and Borrani RW 4039 wheels.

  • 1984 Porsche 911 SC RS Group B Ex Toivonen

    The 911 SC/RS (or Super Carrera/RennSport) is truly the Holy Grail of the Porsche ‘RS’ lineage. And the rarest of all street-legal RSs, with only 20 cars produced. Built as a Homologation special for Rothmans and the Porsche factory using some of the vast sponsorship package released for the factory Group C/Le Mans program, it remains Porsche’s last ever factory rally car. To conform to the FIA Gruppe “B” Rally Homologation rules, 20 examples of the SC/RS were to be build – with chassis numbering from 001 to 0020. With the use of a lightweight version of the SC shell, plus lightweight bonnet, wings, boot-lid/’whale-tail’, doors, thin gauge glass, racing seats and Kevlar bumpers, the overall weight was reduced by over 1000lbs. The SC/RS also incorporates parts from some of the all-time great Porsche racers. The brakes were 917 and from the 911 RSR and 935 the SC/RS gained suspension components, fabricated exhaust headers, clutch, gears, mechanical fuel-injection, dry sump, front anti-roll bar, and limited slip differential. At the time of production, the SC/RS was the fastest normally-aspirated production Porsche in existence. Below is a list of parts and modifications within the SC/RS Homologation ‘special’ road car: - Lightweight body shell - Aluminium bonnet, boot-lid/wail-tail and doors, door panels, and front hood prop. - Aluminium six-point “Matter” safety roll-cage with removable door bars. - Type 935 Recaro Racing seats - “Glaverbal” lightweight glass - Fibreglass/Kevlar front and rear bumpers - Front aluminium skid plate (removable) - Rear aluminium skid plate (removable) - Full belly pan - Fabricated aluminium gas heater protective cover - Factory 3-point passenger seat belt with a 5-point racing belt for the driver - FIA rear-wheel gravel guards - Factory front tower strut brace - 80-litre fuel tank with mini-spare inclusion - 917/930 turbo derived brakes - RSR-type hand fabricated exhaust system - 7 & 8 inch Alloy Fuchs road wheels - Adjustable Bilstein coil-over shock absorbers - Front brake cold air system - Hydraulic hand brake system with control valve - Eberspacher fuel heater - 180mph (300 km/hr) speedometer - External & internal “battery off” master switches - Pair of “Oscar” hood-mounted rally lights (optional) - Turbo 930 rear wing - Heavy duty torsion and anti-roll bars - 0-litre 290bhp engine with 10.3:1 compression-ratio with Bosh/Kugelfisher mechanical injection and dry-sump lubrication - Engine oil cooler system - Custom rally air cleaner system with central port conical filter housing - 915/71 Transaxle with cooler, RSR clutch, close ratio gears and 40% limited slip deferential Whilst 20 Homologation ‘specials’ were built in road specification, just 6 of these would be plucked from the factory line-up, destined to become fully-fledged international rally cars for the works Rothmans Porsche Team. The Porsche factory entrusted Prodrive (David Richards Autosport) to carry out the necessary modifications, which were numerous. From front to back the SC/RS Group B rally cars were thoroughbred competition cars, and there was no shortage of funding from Rothmans. With further weight removed from the now strengthened shell, even more sophisticated suspension, and the howling flat-six now producing around 300bhp, Porsche would go about securing some of the great names in international rallying to drive their new car – names like Henri Toivonen, Juha Kankkunen, and Saeed Al Hajiri. Whilst the works rally cars were certainly based on the homologation road car, the differences between the two are too numerous to list. This particular SC/RS, chassis #007 competed in 13 international rallies for the Rothmans Porsche team, winning 4 outright, 2 with Henri Toivonen and 2 with Billy Coleman. The full list of results is below. Whilst the car is chassis #007 and ran the registration A974 BRX, it was always known as ‘Car 3’ within the team. This numbering lived with the car its whole competition life and is still identifiable on the car today – and still correlates with the original Prodrive records from the day. Following #007’s retirement, it was purchased by Peter Livanos and made its way to America where it remained in his storage for many years. Upon being sold to a British collector based in the States, it was sympathetically restored to concours standard, retaining all of its original works rally parts – including engine and gearbox, whose individual histories are identified using their numbers. On display in his stunning collection for over a decade, #007 subsequently came back to the UK where it was reunited with its original registration of A974 BRX. It also benefitted from a thorough authenticity inspection by Prodrive Legends. Today the car is still in concours condition and has only seen the light of day when invited to events such as Goodwood Festival of Speed, the Heveningham Concours or to be the cover feature of Octane Magazine (October 2021) Whilst the SC/RS might not have the wide-reaching fame of the 2.7 RS, it is without doubt the rarest and most specialised RS derivative ever built by Porsche. And the works rally cars even more so. An air cooled, high-revving, naturally aspirated factory competition Porsche in the greatest livery in the manufacturer’s history, built at a time when Rothmans Porsche ruled the world. 1984 Porsche 911 SC RS Group B Ex Toivonen Duncan Hamilton Rofgo Ltd If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

    The registration number, HWL 1S, will undoubtedly be familiar to many UK rally fans from the 1980s as it has appeared on many hard-driven Fords over the years. It was originally issued on 1st February 1978 to Hartford Motors in Banbury who affixed it to an RS2000 that they planned to use to do "a bit of rallying". It turned out to be more than a bit as, campaigned by the late Bill Gwynne, it went on to win three Championships - Motoring News, BTRDA and the Welsh. It also won the 1980 Welsh Navigator Championship with Lee Vincent and a 3rd for driver Ian Caddy. In early 1980, Ian purchased the RS from Hartfords (the original Bill of Sale is in the history file) and enjoyed it throughout 1980 until the gearbox broke, using it the following season in the National Forest and Tarmac Championship. It was not used for a while after an accident and over the years it evolved into a flat-fronted Tarmac car. To quote Ian "It got arches and then a 2.4-litre Millington engine, although I always intended to restore it back to its 1979 condition, so I kept everything we took off the car". In the meantime, the registration number HWL was glued to a couple of other Mk2s but is now back where it belongs ensuring continuous history for this famous plate. The restoration commenced in 2014 and was carried out by Ian himself and Malcolm Thorne with the engine built by Tobias Adam of T2 Motorsport and based on a sound 2-litre Granada block, big-valve head, Weber 48s, Kent GTS4 cam and much more. We understand that output is now around 200bhp. The gearbox is a straight-cut, CR, Type-E RS2000 with a hydraulic clutch and an RS2000 bellhousing. The rebuild was based around a tidy 1978 shell in white from an automatic car with a genuine steel RS2000 bonnet, steel doors, fibreglass wings, Kevlar boot lid with an RS2000 spoiler, and a fibreglass RS2000 rear bumper. The car was built to Group 4 Tarmac regulations and the spec sheet/build details run to several pages and are far too long to fit in here, so a copy is available from the car's consignor. Its MSUK Passport has recently been renewed and expires on 01/04/2035, and the whole story can be found in a five-page feature in Classic Ford Magazine from November 2019. (Copy included). Now looking splendid in Frozen White with period-correct graphics and HWL 1S on its nose, it's no wonder that Ian feels a little nostalgic and admits "I'd sooner the car went to someone who can enjoy it, although I actually hope that no-one rallies it -it's just too nice now". 1978 Ford Escort RS2000 MK2 Iconic Auctioneers Ltd If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

  • 2000 BMW Z8

    General Overview The BMW Z8, launched in 2000, is a tribute to the iconic 507 Roadster from the late 1950s, reviving its timeless design with modern engineering and technology. The Z8 was a bold statement from BMW, merging retro design elements with contemporary performance standards to create a vehicle that celebrated both BMW heritage and the latest in technology. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, the Z8 featured a classic roadster silhouette that was instantly recognizable, thanks to its long hood, sweeping lines, and distinctive kidney grille. Constructed with an all-aluminum space frame and alloy body panels, the Z8 was powered by a 4.9-liter S62 V8 engine derived from the contemporary E39 M5, delivering 400 horsepower. Although Z8 production was limited to a four-year production run from 2000 to 2003, demand was consistently high, but BMW limited output to just 5,703 units. Today, despite more than two decades having lapsed since it was launched, the BMW Z8 continues to be sought after by enthusiasts and collectors seeking the finest in performance and luxury – an icon of 20th century excellence. History of This Car This Z8 left the Dingolfing plant in 2000 and was delivered new to California. The first owner purchased the vehicle in October of 2000, amassing 67,000 miles over the span of his ownership. In 2021, the original owner transferred ownership to his son who has serviced and maintained the car over the past three years, adding approximately 1300 miles under his care. Having enjoyed single family ownership since new, a current Carfax report confirms consistently accrued miles including regular services, fluid changes, tire installation, and emissions inspections. The six-digit odometer currently indicates 68,301. General Condition Today this Z8 retains the factory Titan Silver Metallic finish and black leather interior. Lovingly enjoyed by the patriarch of the family and his son, the condition is a refreshing reminder that enthusiasts can drive their cars and still retain excellent finishes. Modest use has revealed a few minor stone chips in the front facia and lower rocker panel surfaces, though the overall visual impression is quite nice. In 2013, the rear bumper cap was cosmetically damaged while the car was parked. The rear bumper was professionally refinished yielding excellent results which matches the factory finished body. Paint meter readings for the aluminum body panels yield single digit numbers consistent with factory application, further supported by factory VIN emblems retained on the opening body panels. All opening features operate with factory precision displaying proper panel gaps when closed. And while the exterior finishes are quite nice, light scuff marks are visible on the driver’s exterior door handle and fading to the wiper arm finish. The factory wheels are in excellent condition wearing Michelin Pilot Sport All Season tires, 245/45/ZR18 front (2013 date codes) and 275/40ZR18 rear (2009 date codes). The retro-futurist design theme continues to the interior of the Z8. The steering wheel is reminiscent of the classic BMW 507 supported by modern features and conveniences arrayed in the dashboard and center console. As with the exterior. The interior displays signs of use on typically high-touch surfaces including the door threshold, interior door latch and steering wheel hub. The switchgear and climate control buttons function as intended, including the distinctive cabin lights located on the bottom of the rearview mirror. Heated power adjustable seats function properly, here too showing typical signs of seat wear, relaxed seat bottom cushion and small seam separation at the left inside corner of the driver’s seat. A contemporary Pioneer stereo unit has been installed (original unit included with the car). The dashboard is in excellent condition, though minor pulling can be seen at one corner of the leather surface. The carpets, floor mats, and rear bulkhead surfaces remain in excellent condition. A novel feature of the era, the Motorola (state-of-the-art for the era) BMW branded cell phone, offered with the Z8 when new, is included with this car. The trunk retains the factory black carpeting with access to the battery (dated October 2023) and additional small package storage under the hinged floor panel. Opening the hood reveals the naturally aspirated 4.9L S62 V8. Derived from the celebrated E39 M5 and considerably lighter in weight, this engine is key to the performance magic of the Z8 pulling strong in all gears with progressive acceleration matching even the most premier exotics of the era. The engine bay, engine, and engine components have been properly maintained including the manufacturer stickers and identification tags which remain in excellent condition. The front suspension tower supports both bear the original VIN stampings and factory Titan Silver paint code. The suspension components, bushings, and undercarriage tray are clean, correct, and remarkably nice throughout. As with the other factory VIN stickers, the underside engine casing retains the matching factory VIN plate. The undercarriage shows no signs of structural compromise or damage to the chassis or suspension mounting points. Driving the Z8 The Z8 driving experience remains one of the most memorable of all open performance cars from this period. Manual 6-speed, front V8 engine, and responsive multi-link suspension make even a trip to the local store a memorable event. Everything from the classic-inspired dashboard to the open configuration emphasizes driver engagement. Highway driving is smooth and effortless with passing speeds achieved in a matter of seconds, while braking is nothing short of fantastic coming down from high speeds tracking smoothly and evenly on a firm pedal. Everything about the Z8 driving experience conveys confidence, delight, and excitement. No wonder these cars have remained for so many years with their original owners or within enthusiast families just as this one has. Items Included with the Car This Z8 is accompanied by a car cover, factory tool roll, tools and gloves, the owner’s manual set and leather case, various factory literature, and stereo guide. The original stereo, BMW navigation system disc, first aid kit, and the rare original Motorola BMW branded cell phone are also included. 2000 BMW Z8 Fantasy Junction If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.
