- 1960 Porsche 356 B 1600 Super 90
This particular example is a lovely Porsche 356 B 1600 Super 90 Roadster by Drauz from 1960 with desirable T5 bodywork. The car was originally delivered via dealer Islinger in Mannheim, Germany, to Herrn Bruno Schoechle from Heidelberg. The 2nd owner was a Mr. Zubile from Stuttgart and a 3rd owner is also mentioned on the copy of the Wagenkarte. The car was delivered new in Reihergrau (a light grey) with a Kunstleder interior with Liegesitze (adjustable seats) and Dunlop tyres. Between 1960 and 1966, the car went back for work to the dealer no less than 7 times for ‘Gewaehrleistung’. In 1966 the mileage was 50.587 km recorded. After that we know the car went to Italy where it was registered in the Registro Italiano Porsche. We are trying to find more history from the years in Italy. According to the built sheet, the car was delivered new with engine nr. 800765. Sometime during its 64 year life – probably in the early days – the engine was changed to correct type S90 engine nr. 800739, so only 26 nrs. apart from the first number. In 2000 the car arrived in the Netherlands with its first Dutch owner on whose behalf we sold the car in 2002 to the current owner. The body has been repainted, has had a good anti rust treatment and still shows very well. The underside is straight, clean and in very good condition. The interior has kept up very well. The cars starts easy, runs on 12V and shifts easy. In the 22 year ownership the car has seen some 30.000 km of pleasurable touring. The car comes with valuation reports, pictures from part restoration work, invoices and Dutch registration. In 2020 the convertible roof was renewed (3.500 Euro) and in July 2024 new Michelin XWX ‘White Wall’ tyres were fitted (which could be turned around).

- 1958-lotus-xi-ex-24h-le-mans
Lotus founder Colin Chapman assembled a team of volunteers to help him create a revolutionary model for 1956. While the production Lotus Marks 8, 9 and 10 were based on the Lotus Mark 6, the Eleven was designed from scratch. Its closest ancestor was the Mk 9 Le Mans factory racing car, registered XPE 6, a test bed for what was to follow. The Eleven used a steel tube chassis with aluminium panels. The elegant chassis weighed less than 30 kg. It was powered by the new Coventry-Climax four-cylinder aluminium engine, an overhead cam design with an impressive power-to-weight ratio. Girling disc brakes were used, and parts adapted from all kinds of English cars of the time made up the rest of the machine. The vehicle was covered with a stunning aerodynamic body designed by Frank Costin: handcrafted in aluminium and hinged at both ends for easy access. Lotus cars were considered ‘scientifically designed’ racing cars, with each component studied to achieve maximum efficiency for minimum weight. Chapman's philosophy was that each part should fulfil at least two functions, without weighing more than was absolutely necessary to do the job. Contemporary racing drivers considered the Lotus to be THE car to win races, even at the risk of not finishing at all. From January 1956, when the first Elevens were hastily assembled for their presentation to the press in AutoSport or to be shipped to the United States for their racing debut, the cars were built as quickly as the small Lotus workshop could manage. The chassis were manufactured by Progress Chassis Co. and the bodywork and panels by Williams & Pritchard, both of which were practically neighbours. The cars were either assembled in-house or sold as kits. The Elevens could be ordered in the full Le Mans version, which used a de Dion rear suspension, or in the less expensive Club version, which used an Austin rear axle and drum brakes. Finally, a Sports version was available, which was essentially a Club with a Ford 10 engine. Initially, all Elevens used a swing axle front suspension modified from parts of the British Ford 93E model. In the spring of 1957, after about 150 cars had been produced, a new version of the Eleven was introduced as the Series 2. The main difference, which was generally only found on the Le Mans version, was the Lotus 12-type double A-arm front suspension, which gave the car a smoother and more consistent ride. The S-2 had chassis improvements, a stronger powertrain and could accommodate larger engines. By the summer of 1958, a total of around 270 Elemens had been built when production turned to newer models, including Formula 1 cars. The Eleven was the first Lotus to be built in such large numbers, and it firmly established the company as a serious manufacturer of competition cars. It held such a place in Chapman's heart that future Lotus cars were given names reminiscent of it, such as Elite and Elan. Colin Chapman was in the habit of developing a prototype during the racing season for production the following year. The 1956 Mark XI followed this policy and had a new chassis that differed significantly from the previous year's production cars. It was available as an easy-to-assemble kit. Although the chassis frame was multi-tubular, the details were different, with the main lower tubes being one inch square instead of round. The others were 1.5 cm round tubes with a thickness varying between 18 and 20. There are fewer tubes, which reduces weight, but rigidity has been maintained thanks to a 20-gauge light alloy sheet metal floor tunnel. The swing axle system has been retained at the front, but the pivot points have been lowered, which should further improve the Lotus' exceptional cornering capabilities. The pivot bearings are located in a rigid steel section. This arrangement facilitates the assembly of the entire front suspension system, and the Ford axle beams have been ‘adjusted’ to allow the roll centre to be lowered. A new Girling-type suspension unit with integrated shock absorbers has been used. Morris Minor rack and pinion steering with a three-piece column was chosen, and the wire wheels are 15-inch Dunlops with centre nuts. Although a De Dion rear axle system has been retained, it is entirely new. The universal joints are located at the ends of the tube, which has a diameter of 3 inches, a quarter of an inch larger than the previous car. The De Dion tube is composed of three tubular arms, two of which are parallel at the front and rear, but the third forms a semicircle at the rear of the chassis. The available gear ratios are 4.89, 4.55, 4.22, 3.89 and 3.66 to 1. The inboard brakes at the rear and external brakes at the front are all Girling type with 9-inch diameter discs and the latest caliper mechanism. From an exterior perspective, the bodywork is once again very aerodynamic, but much lower than the S1. The aerodynamic purpose of the spoilers on the previous Lotus has been replaced by a central spoiler behind the driver's head, which is removable for mechanical work. The body is four inches wider and more rounded at the sides, making the cockpit spacious and easily accessible with light alloy doors on each side. Although it was usually powered only by a 1,100 cc Climax engine, the Eleven, in expert hands, could beat most other racing cars. The combined effect of good power, low weight, unrivalled aerodynamics, powerful brakes and exemplary handling was such that the Eleven had no rival in the 1,100 cc class and was almost as dominant in the 1,500 cc class. It was competitive in the up to 2-litre class, and on the right track, it could beat any sports car, regardless of engine size. After an aborted competitive debut at Sebring in March, the Elevens competed in races in England. Colin Chapman and others drove the cars to a string of victories and track records. For years, there was talk of an epic duel at Goodwood between the Elevens driven by Chapman and Mike Hawthorn. Around the world, the cars began to fill the grids of the 1,100cc sports car class (or G class), the predecessor of Formula Junior and an entry level for international competition. At the 24 Hours of Le Mans, a team of three cars was entered: the car driven by Reg Bicknell and Peter Jopp finished seventh overall and first in its class. That autumn, a specially faired Eleven, driven by Stirling Moss and ‘Mac’ Fraser, raced at Monza and set a series of world speed records on a closed circuit. The 1,100cc car covered 100 km at 135 mph, with a fast lap of 143 mph. During the 1956 season, the Elevens won at least 148 races. In 1957, with more than a hundred Elevens in action around the world, the domination continued. The highlights began with a class victory at Sebring by Chapman and Joe Sheppard. The highlight of 1958 was the Elevens' overwhelming victory in their class at Sebring. There, the Weiss/Tallaksen car finished an incredible fourth overall with only 1,100 cc. Gradually, however, the rapid evolution of racing caught up with the Eleven, and while it was still competitive, Lotus prepared a successor. In 1959, the Lotus 17 appeared, lower and lighter, but even it could not match the Eleven's handling and overall speed. The true replacement finally appeared in 1962 with the brilliant Lotus 23 as part of the rear-engine revolution that ended the era the Eleven had dominated. Around the world, dozens of Lotus Elevens found new life in amateur club racing and as ‘school’ cars. In the 1960s, many drivers got their first taste of racing behind the wheel of one of these old thoroughbreds. With 270 units built between 1956 and 1958, the Lotus Eleven was a synthesis of all Colin Chapman's experience and expertise at the time of its release. Designed for endurance and sprint racing for small cars, this new Lotus, which introduced the E names, quickly attracted a clientele of demanding sportsmen and gentleman drivers. Chassis 515 – 24 Hours of Le Mans 1958 In May 1958, Lotus Engineering completed the construction of chassis 515. The Lotus XI was then at the peak of its technical maturity. Chassis 515 was delivered new to Bill Frost, owner of the Car Exchange dealership in Brighton. The car was registered as 2411 HP. Its configuration was clear: Le Mans Series 2 specification, with a high windscreen and ‘High Tail’ rear, magnesium wheels and a Coventry Climax FWA No. 7701 engine combined with a close-ratio MGA gearbox. Everything indicated that its destination was already known. A few weeks later, the Lotus was entered in the 1958 24 Hours of Le Mans under number 39 by Car Exchange. The crew consisted of Bill Frost and Bob Hicks in the highly competitive 1100 cc class. The 1958 edition was marked by particularly challenging weather conditions. In heavy rain, the little Lotus demonstrated the intelligence of its design. Light, precise and balanced, it led its category in the early hours of the race. But the Sarthe remains unpredictable. On the Mulsanne Straight, the car lost control in precarious grip conditions. Immobilised, it was then hit by an Alfa Romeo. After three hours of racing, retirement was inevitable. The Historic Lotus Register archives formally confirm its identity: chassis 515, entered by Car Exchange, number 39, retired after three hours. Like many endurance cars of that era, the 515 did not disappear after this episode. It probably returned to Brighton where it was rebuilt. There are indications that it may have raced at Goodwood shortly before Le Mans during the 1958 Whitsun Meeting, a hypothesis consistent with Bill Frost's activity in Sussex, although this remains to be definitively documented. Over the years, the car left the United Kingdom and crossed the Atlantic. In the 1980s, it belonged to Harold Phillip Javetz in Savannah, Georgia. An amateur driver and passionate collector, Javetz kept the Lotus in its original configuration. In 1985, the car appeared in the American specialist press, notably in Thoroughbred & Classic Cars, where Innes Ireland was photographed alongside the XI – a highlight that helped to revive its Le Mans past. In 1988, the Lotus was sold to Ed Henning, also in the United States. In 1991, chassis 515 returned to the United Kingdom in the hands of Bill Harding. This marked a turning point: the Historic Lotus Register officially confirmed its chassis number, its original registration and its participation in the 1958 24 Hours of Le Mans under number 39. In the same year, the car was acquired by Carol Spagg. Inspected and documented by Graham Capel, it returned to British and European historic circuits during the 1990s. Correspondence from 1998 attests to its FIA compliance in 1098 cc configuration. In 2006, the XI 515 joined the collection of a French amateur driver. It took part in the 2008, 2014 and 2016 editions of Le Mans Classic, returning to the track where it had raced half a century earlier. In March 2022, the car was acquired by its current owner. Today, the 515 chassis retains the fundamental elements that define its identity: its Le Mans ‘High Tail’ configuration, its 1098 cc engine, its historical consistency and continuous traceability spanning more than six decades. The 515 chassis is not just a Lotus XI. It is a car that was ordered new for Le Mans, entered in one of the most difficult editions of the time, rebuilt, preserved, passed on from enthusiasts to collectors, and then returned to race on the circuit that shaped its legend. It was recently entered by its current owner at Le Mans Classic, Goodwood and the Gentlemen Challenge at Peter Auto. Perfectly maintained with a newly rebuilt and bench-tested engine, compliant with its Weber DCO3 carburettors, it perfectly embodies the Lotus spirit of the late 1950s: technical intelligence, mechanical elegance and courage on the track. ________________________________________ Summary of owners 1958 – Bill Frost / Car Exchange (Brighton) 1960s – Probable competition activity 1984 – Harold Javetz (USA) 1988 – Ed Henning (USA) 1991 – Bill Harding (UK) 1991 – Carol Spagg (UK) 2006 – Eric Leroy (France) 2022 – Current Owner It is eligible for the biggest motor racing events: Goodwood, Le Mans Classic, the Tour Auto, the Gentleman Challenge by Peter Auto, Motor Racing Legends and the GTSCC with Flavien and Vanessa Marçais... to name but a few! 1958 Lotus XI ex 24H Le Mans Historic Cars If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

From January 1956, when the first Elevens were hastily assembled for their presentation to the press in AutoSport or to be shipped to the United States for their racing debut, the cars were built as quickly as the small Lotus workshop could manage. The chassis were manufactured by Progress Chassis Co. and the bodywork and panels by Williams & Pritchard, both of which were practically neighbours. The cars were either assembled in-house or sold as kits. The Elevens could be ordered in the full Le Mans version, which used a de Dion rear suspension, or in the less expensive Club version, which used an Austin rear axle and drum brakes. Finally, a Sports version was available, which was essentially a Club with a Ford 10 engine. Initially, all Elevens used a swing axle front suspension modified from parts of the British Ford 93E model. In the spring of 1957, after about 150 cars had been produced, a new version of the Eleven was introduced as the Series 2. The main difference, which was generally only found on the Le Mans version, was the Lotus 12-type double A-arm front suspension, which gave the car a smoother and more consistent ride. The S-2 had chassis improvements, a stronger powertrain and could accommodate larger engines. By the summer of 1958, a total of around 270 Elemens had been built when production turned to newer models, including Formula 1 cars. The Eleven was the first Lotus to be built in such large numbers, and it firmly established the company as a serious manufacturer of competition cars. It held such a place in Chapman's heart that future Lotus cars were given names reminiscent of it, such as Elite and Elan. Colin Chapman was in the habit of developing a prototype during the racing season for production the following year. The 1956 Mark XI followed this policy and had a new chassis that differed significantly from the previous year's production cars. It was available as an easy-to-assemble kit. Although the chassis frame was multi-tubular, the details were different, with the main lower tubes being one inch square instead of round. The others were 1.5 cm round tubes with a thickness varying between 18 and 20. There are fewer tubes, which reduces weight, but rigidity has been maintained thanks to a 20-gauge light alloy sheet metal floor tunnel. The swing axle system has been retained at the front, but the pivot points have been lowered, which should further improve the Lotus' exceptional cornering capabilities. The pivot bearings are located in a rigid steel section. This arrangement facilitates the assembly of the entire front suspension system, and the Ford axle beams have been ‘adjusted’ to allow the roll centre to be lowered. A new Girling-type suspension unit with integrated shock absorbers has been used. Morris Minor rack and pinion steering with a three-piece column was chosen, and the wire wheels are 15-inch Dunlops with centre nuts. Although a De Dion rear axle system has been retained, it is entirely new. The universal joints are located at the ends of the tube, which has a diameter of 3 inches, a quarter of an inch larger than the previous car. The De Dion tube is composed of three tubular arms, two of which are parallel at the front and rear, but the third forms a semicircle at the rear of the chassis. The available gear ratios are 4.89, 4.55, 4.22, 3.89 and 3.66 to 1. The inboard brakes at the rear and external brakes at the front are all Girling type with 9-inch diameter discs and the latest caliper mechanism. From an exterior perspective, the bodywork is once again very aerodynamic, but much lower than the S1. The aerodynamic purpose of the spoilers on the previous Lotus has been replaced by a central spoiler behind the driver's head, which is removable for mechanical work. The body is four inches wider and more rounded at the sides, making the cockpit spacious and easily accessible with light alloy doors on each side. Although it was usually powered only by a 1,100 cc Climax engine, the Eleven, in expert hands, could beat most other racing cars. The combined effect of good power, low weight, unrivalled aerodynamics, powerful brakes and exemplary handling was such that the Eleven had no rival in the 1,100 cc class and was almost as dominant in the 1,500 cc class. It was competitive in the up to 2-litre class, and on the right track, it could beat any sports car, regardless of engine size. After an aborted competitive debut at Sebring in March, the Elevens competed in races in England. Colin Chapman and others drove the cars to a string of victories and track records. For years, there was talk of an epic duel at Goodwood between the Elevens driven by Chapman and Mike Hawthorn. Around the world, the cars began to fill the grids of the 1,100cc sports car class (or G class), the predecessor of Formula Junior and an entry level for international competition. At the 24 Hours of Le Mans, a team of three cars was entered: the car driven by Reg Bicknell and Peter Jopp finished seventh overall and first in its class. That autumn, a specially faired Eleven, driven by Stirling Moss and ‘Mac’ Fraser, raced at Monza and set a series of world speed records on a closed circuit. The 1,100cc car covered 100 km at 135 mph, with a fast lap of 143 mph. During the 1956 season, the Elevens won at least 148 races. In 1957, with more than a hundred Elevens in action around the world, the domination continued. The highlights began with a class victory at Sebring by Chapman and Joe Sheppard. The highlight of 1958 was the Elevens' overwhelming victory in their class at Sebring. There, the Weiss/Tallaksen car finished an incredible fourth overall with only 1,100 cc. Gradually, however, the rapid evolution of racing caught up with the Eleven, and while it was still competitive, Lotus prepared a successor. In 1959, the Lotus 17 appeared, lower and lighter, but even it could not match the Eleven's handling and overall speed. The true replacement finally appeared in 1962 with the brilliant Lotus 23 as part of the rear-engine revolution that ended the era the Eleven had dominated. Around the world, dozens of Lotus Elevens found new life in amateur club racing and as ‘school’ cars. In the 1960s, many drivers got their first taste of racing behind the wheel of one of these old thoroughbreds. With 270 units built between 1956 and 1958, the Lotus Eleven was a synthesis of all Colin Chapman's experience and expertise at the time of its release. Designed for endurance and sprint racing for small cars, this new Lotus, which introduced the E names, quickly attracted a clientele of demanding sportsmen and gentleman drivers. Chassis 515 – 24 Hours of Le Mans 1958 In May 1958, Lotus Engineering completed the construction of chassis 515. The Lotus XI was then at the peak of its technical maturity. Chassis 515 was delivered new to Bill Frost, owner of the Car Exchange dealership in Brighton. The car was registered as 2411 HP. Its configuration was clear: Le Mans Series 2 specification, with a high windscreen and ‘High Tail’ rear, magnesium wheels and a Coventry Climax FWA No. 7701 engine combined with a close-ratio MGA gearbox. Everything indicated that its destination was already known. A few weeks later, the Lotus was entered in the 1958 24 Hours of Le Mans under number 39 by Car Exchange. The crew consisted of Bill Frost and Bob Hicks in the highly competitive 1100 cc class. The 1958 edition was marked by particularly challenging weather conditions. In heavy rain, the little Lotus demonstrated the intelligence of its design. Light, precise and balanced, it led its category in the early hours of the race. But the Sarthe remains unpredictable. On the Mulsanne Straight, the car lost control in precarious grip conditions. Immobilised, it was then hit by an Alfa Romeo. After three hours of racing, retirement was inevitable. The Historic Lotus Register archives formally confirm its identity: chassis 515, entered by Car Exchange, number 39, retired after three hours. Like many endurance cars of that era, the 515 did not disappear after this episode. It probably returned to Brighton where it was rebuilt. There are indications that it may have raced at Goodwood shortly before Le Mans during the 1958 Whitsun Meeting, a hypothesis consistent with Bill Frost's activity in Sussex, although this remains to be definitively documented. Over the years, the car left the United Kingdom and crossed the Atlantic. In the 1980s, it belonged to Harold Phillip Javetz in Savannah, Georgia. An amateur driver and passionate collector, Javetz kept the Lotus in its original configuration. In 1985, the car appeared in the American specialist press, notably in Thoroughbred & Classic Cars, where Innes Ireland was photographed alongside the XI – a highlight that helped to revive its Le Mans past. In 1988, the Lotus was sold to Ed Henning, also in the United States. In 1991, chassis 515 returned to the United Kingdom in the hands of Bill Harding. This marked a turning point: the Historic Lotus Register officially confirmed its chassis number, its original registration and its participation in the 1958 24 Hours of Le Mans under number 39. In the same year, the car was acquired by Carol Spagg. Inspected and documented by Graham Capel, it returned to British and European historic circuits during the 1990s. Correspondence from 1998 attests to its FIA compliance in 1098 cc configuration. In 2006, the XI 515 joined the collection of a French amateur driver. It took part in the 2008, 2014 and 2016 editions of Le Mans Classic, returning to the track where it had raced half a century earlier. In March 2022, the car was acquired by its current owner. Today, the 515 chassis retains the fundamental elements that define its identity: its Le Mans ‘High Tail’ configuration, its 1098 cc engine, its historical consistency and continuous traceability spanning more than six decades. The 515 chassis is not just a Lotus XI. It is a car that was ordered new for Le Mans, entered in one of the most difficult editions of the time, rebuilt, preserved, passed on from enthusiasts to collectors, and then returned to race on the circuit that shaped its legend. It was recently entered by its current owner at Le Mans Classic, Goodwood and the Gentlemen Challenge at Peter Auto. Perfectly maintained with a newly rebuilt and bench-tested engine, compliant with its Weber DCO3 carburettors, it perfectly embodies the Lotus spirit of the late 1950s: technical intelligence, mechanical elegance and courage on the track. ________________________________________ Summary of owners 1958 – Bill Frost / Car Exchange (Brighton) 1960s – Probable competition activity 1984 – Harold Javetz (USA) 1988 – Ed Henning (USA) 1991 – Bill Harding (UK) 1991 – Carol Spagg (UK) 2006 – Eric Leroy (France) 2022 – Current Owner It is eligible for the biggest motor racing events: Goodwood, Le Mans Classic, the Tour Auto, the Gentleman Challenge by Peter Auto, Motor Racing Legends and the GTSCC with Flavien and Vanessa Marçais... to name but a few!

The Jaguar E-Type is a British automobile legend, manufactured by Jaguar between 1961 and 1975. A combination of good looks, high performance, and competitive pricing ensured the car was an instant legend. In period, a Ferrari cost three times more and supplied less horse power which established the marque as an icon of 1960s motoring. The model became a great success for Jaguar; at its release Enzo Ferrari called it "The most beautiful car ever made". The model was made in three distinct versions which are now generally referred to as "Series 1", "Series 2" and "Series 3". A transitional series between Series 1 and Series 2 is known, unofficially, as "Series 1½". Despite completion at the factory on the 15th December 1961, this Jaguar E-type 3.8-litre would not be despatched until 7th March 1962. One of the earliest examples completed, this is the 320th right-hand drive road ‘open, two-seater’. Originally finished in Imperial Maroon over Tan, this flat-floor was registered '494 YTB' which it retains to this day. From the accompanying Buff logbook and factory information sheet, the car was originally sent via Parker’s of Bolton to agents E. Rimmer of Chorley, Lancs, but lasted a mere 6 days on their forecourt before selling its first owner, R. Burgess of Prestbury, Cheshire. The logbook with the car notes that it remained for most of its early life in Cheshire, changing hands first in 1965, with several more sales until 1970. In August 1984, it was inspected by Strange, Strange and Lee Automobile Assessors of Stoke-on-Trent for a prospective client who was interested in purchasing the Jaguar. At that time, their report notes that the total mileage to date had been just over 14,000 and that this had been accounted for by a succession of fastidious owners. Whether the mileage was true or not is difficult to know, however, they do record that it was still in its original colour scheme, and MoT certificates on file confirm this reading. Five years later, in 1989 the car came into the ownership of Mill Lane Engineering, and was acquired as a sound basis on which to complete one of their exceptional restorations. It was purchased shortly after by a Jaguar enthusiast, who also had an XK150 restored by the company and was the subject of a ground up re-build at Mill Lane between 1989-1992. A comprehensive file with the car details the full process of the work carried out from its purchase in April 1989 for £19,500, through every aspect of the restoration work to its eventual completion. Each invoice throughout this period comes with the car and the total cost of the rebuild, carried out over 1,600 hours invested and at a time when labour charges were a fraction of today's figures, is a considerable £160,000. Well cared for by a serious of fastidious owners and residing within a small collection in the past few years, the car has seen sparing use. Offered for sale accompanied by its history folio including original log book and invoices, this example is ready to be used and enjoyed in the coming months. 1961 Jaguar E-type OTS 3.8 D.K.

In order to qualify, 1,000 “Homologation” models had to be built. Featuring a lightweight aluminum hood and deck lid, and an aluminum engine air-cleaner housing, the SLC's front and rear spoilers kept the car stable at its 142-mph top speed. Most importantly, Mercedes-Benz included its new engine – the 5.0-liter, aluminum-block V-8 – realizing a weight savings of over 200 pounds.

- 1968 Alfa Romeo 1750 GTV
Penned by Giorgetto Giugiaro at Bertone, the 105’s clean and distinctive design is one of the most attractive small coupes of the 1960s and 70s. The 1750 GTV was the first evolution of the original design and benefited from Alfa Romeo’s larger 1779cc engine in addition to many other updates and modifications including to the chassis, suspension and brakes. It made for a much better driving car particularly at higher touring speeds and ensured the cars performance was better than many sports cars of the era. Arguably the ‘1750’ motor is regarded by enthusiasts as the one to have given its combination of power, torque and free revving nature. Externally the 1750 GTV also departed from the earlier cars with a new nose styling incorporating a revised grill with four headlamps. Our example is an early Series 1 model delivered in April 1968 to Pymble NSW, as confirmed by the Certificate of Origin which accompanies the car. It has been in the ownership of known ‘Alfisti’ who have kept it in wonderful order. The current owner acquired the car in 2006 and commenced a restoration in 2009. The car was then completed and registered in 2018 and has covered under 2,000 miles since that time. During the restoration the car underwent a back to metal repaint, extensive mechanical and electrical work. It still presents extremely well to this day. The body is in very good all-round condition with minimal panel work being required once the paint was removed. There are some stone chips and marks on the body due to age, but none are significant. The car had a colour change by its previous owner to red from its original Biancospino but it suits the car well. The interior is in the original Nero. All the stainless steel brightwork is in wonderful order and sets the car off beautifully. The wheels although from a later model 2000 GTV are refurbished and are in perfect condition. The interior is just lovely with everything as it should be. An unmarked steering wheel greets you and the dash and dials are something that just looks perfect to the eye. The dash has been restored at some point and the current dash pad is well made and is a practical addition. The desirable ‘flying buttress’ seats have been reupholstered and are just a lovely feature. The instrument binnacle looks spot on with only a little frosting to the rev counter cover, but this is being picky. The headlining is fresh and perfect to the eye. The timber veneer to the centre console is not original but a good match and is well fitted. The carpets are new and unmarked. Turn the key and the engine fires up to a familiar Alfa growl. Out on the open road this car is just superb. The gearbox is excellent with no issues with the synchro’s. It is accurate, smooth, and quick to work through the gears and using it is quite addictive. The engine is responsive and pulls extremely well benefiting from the carbs being rebuilt and tuned. The engine bay is clean and largely original. The boot is excellent and lined with carpet. These 105’s are great driver’s cars, and we can see why they are so sought after. Freshly restored cars are still fetching well north of $100,000 and this car represents good buying. The car will be serviced and ready to be enjoyed by its new owner. 1968 Alfa Romeo 1750 GTV Сlassic Сar Market If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

- 1973-ginetta-g15
Ginetta – British lightness in its purest form. The G15 marked a commercial success for the small racing car manufacturer Ginetta, allowing them to offer a sports car primarily designed for the road in addition to the race-oriented G4. Instead of the Ford engines previously used, the G15 was equipped with the engine from the Sunbeam Hillman Imp. The engineers at Ginetta were enthusiastic about this modern four-cylinder engine made of light alloy. The G15 was presented to the general public at the 1967 London Motor Show, and only about 800 units were built by 1974. The Ginetta G15 offered here is powered by a tuned 995cc four-cylinder engine producing approximately 80 hp, which, combined with a curb weight of just 550 kg, still enables it to deliver impressive performance today. Thanks to its rear-engine layout, the agile response of the suspension, and the low seating position, this compact sports car delivers plenty of driving fun even at low speeds and feels right at home on winding roads. This G15, complete with a FIA Historic Regularity Car Pass and FIVA Identity Card, is in excellent condition both technically and visually. A user manual, a parts and price list, as well as many other documents are included. 1973 Ginetta G15 Lutziger Classic Cars AG If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

- 1962-alfa-romeo-giulia-1600-spider
The Giulia Spider belongs to Alfa Romeo's 101 series. The convertible was unveiled alongside the Giulia TI and Giulia Sprint GT in Monza in the summer of 1962. The car was largely identical to its predecessor, the Giulietta Spider, and was also built by Pininfarina. The 1600 cc engine with 92 hp was the same as in the Giulia Sprint and allowed a top speed of 172 km/h. The external differences to the previous model were minor. The body was extended by a few centimeters behind the door to increase passenger space, an air scoop was added to the bonnet to accommodate the larger engine, and the previously single-piece side windows were given small triangular windows at the front. The Giulia on offer is a Swiss delivery, built on 12 July 1962 and delivered to Alfa Romeo Lugano on 13 July. Presumably, the pretty convertible remained unsold for some time or served as the dealer's private car – in any case, it was not first registered until 1967 in the canton of Ticino. In March 2021, the Giulia was taken over from its female owner by the consignor and added to his collection. Many years ago, the Alfa Romeo was fitted with an technical identical replacement engine of the type AR00536, manufactured in 1965, and was probably restored a few years ago. Still in its original combination of ‘rosso’ with black imitation leather upholstery, the Giulia is in good to very good condition and will be handed over to a new owner with its last veteran MOT completed in April 2021. 1962 Alfa Romeo Giulia 1600 Spider Oldtimer Galerie International GmbH If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

- 1988 Aston Martin V8 Vantage X-Pack Manual
A rare and highly desirable UK-supplied, right-hand drive, manual gearbox, genuine factory 'X Pack', one of only 137 examples built. At the time of its introduction in 1977, the Aston Martin V8 Vantage represented an impressive return to form for the British manufacturer, combining true supercar performance with the finest appointments of a luxury GT in the best of British tradition. Though subsequent models went through mechanical performance upgrades, it took nearly a decade before the V8 Vantage truly achieved 'supercar' status. The Series 3, first introduced at the 1986 British International Motor Show, was the ultimate iteration of the muscular V8 Vantage. Officially entitled V580X, quickly becoming known as the 'X-Pack', it was equipped with four dual-barrel 48mm Weber IDF carburettors, high-compression Cosworth pistons, larger inlet ports and higher lift camshafts, resulting in a remarkable 432bhp from its 5.3 litres. Described by one journalist as 'a Hemi Road Runner built by Bentley', the new and improved V8 Vantage was a genuine 200mph 'supercar' and although not lightweight, could see off the skimpy Ferrari 512BB and Testarossa plus the Lamborghini Countach with aplomb and carry an extra two passengers. Dating from early 1988, #V5802586X is an original factory-built, manual gearbox 'X-Pack' car and was first registered on 8th January 1988 by Reg Vardy Ltd. before subsequently being sold to its first owner, a Mr John Mills of Stratford-upon-Avon. He only kept the car until March 1990 when our lucky custodian acquired the Aston and he has owned it ever since, his fastidious care being evident in the gleaming Suffolk Red paintwork, polished Ronal wheels and inviting leather interior in fresh Magnolia and Suffolk Red complemented by immaculate walnut veneers. It's supplied with its original book pack containing the owner’s manual, wiring diagram, Aston Dealerships booklet, along with the all-important service record which currently displays 18 stamps, the first by Reg Vardy, then from April 1988 through to June 2000, Newport Pagnell Works. Stratstone Aston then took up the mantle after a period of storage from 2008 until 2010, and latterly Aston Martin Workshops of Beamish took care of the car. A substantial invoice from AMW (£14,365) refers to the rectification of various mechanical issues and a full service. In 2013, AMW also undertook some paint correction works to keep the Aston in tip top order producing a further bill for £8,482. Within the history file are details of a speedometer head change (a known fault) by Aston Works back in December 1988 at 19,935 miles and when combined with the indicated mileage, at the time of photography, of 24,177 the Aston appears to have covered just 44,112 miles from new. There are a number of other invoices relating to routine servicing and old MOTs suggesting that this fabulous X-Pack has been diligently maintained all its days. Very rarely do hand-built cars as special as this come to market and this is an excellent opportunity to acquire a superb example of Britain's first supercar. It's one of only 137, fitted with a manual ZF gearbox, low mileage, known provenance and ownership from new, detailed history, an MOT valid until June 2025 and really well presented.
