In October 1987, the Esprit received its first revamp since its initial launch in 1976 and was given the project codename ‘X180’. This design was the work of Peter Stevens, who was also responsible for the styling of the Lotus Elan M100 and McLaren F1. Whilst it retained the basic creativity behind the original Giorgetto Giugiaro design, it featured rounder, smoother lines, which helped to reduce the drag coefficient to only 0.33. It was, in essence, a restyled bodyshell on an established, proven chassis and displayed ‘Turbo’ badges behind the line where the door shut. At the rear, there was an aerodynamically profiled under tray/spoiler to remove hot air from the engine compartment and cool the brakes. Mechanically, the X180 differed little from its predecessor, the Esprit Turbo HC, with its 2,174cc, 16-valve, double overhead cam, Lotus 910 engine, developing the same 215bhp, and 220ft/lbs of torque. One important change was the gearbox with the Citroen/Maserati 5-speed unit being replaced by that from the Renault Alpine GTA saloon, which provided slightly higher gear ratios. Other improvements, following a redesign of the interior, included increased headroom and legroom, and a wider footwell. The X180 was a financial success, with 1,058 examples being built in 1988, a figure that would never be repeated. Having been laid up since circa 2015, the decision was taken to strip the car back to its bare bones, and restore it to a very high standard. The engine was removed, stripped and checked, but was found to have no issues, so it was cleaned, carefully rebuilt, and now sits unmarked in the engine bay topped with additional electric cooling fans to aid air flow. It's been resprayed in its original black and appears to be unmarked. The interior has also seen a thorough refresh with new carpets and the cream leather seats have been re-connollised and now look particularly inviting. The suspension has benefitted from the same attention to detail with all necessary parts replaced or refurbished, finished off with freshly painted wheels and new tyres all round. The car is supplied with some service history, plenty of invoices and a large photo album cataloguing the restoration. Since then, it has been used sparingly, taken to car shows and enjoyed on fine days. An MOT was completed on 11th March 2024 with 'No Advisories'.

Luigi Chinetti and the North American Racing Team Among the greatest privateer racing teams, Luigi Chinetti’s North American Racing Team (N.A.R.T.) was a staple of motorsport – both in American and Europe – for over 30 years. The equipe was born after a Christmas Eve conversation in 1946 between Chinetti and Ferrari, who’d kindled a friendship during their respective (and very successful) tenures as drivers at Alfa Romeo in the 1930s. Ferrari spoke of his plans to start building sports cars, which Chinetti thought potentially fruitful given his affluent friends in America, where he’d emigrated before the Second World War. Little did the pair know it, but this was to be the start of Luigi Chinetti Motors Inc. and, ultimately, the North American Racing Team. As well as becoming Ferrari’s official concessionaire in North America, Chinetti began providing Ferraris to wealthy individuals for racing purposes, along with his mechanical expertise and influence with the American racing authorities. Naturally, he relished the chance to drive the cars he was able to procure and his success was extensive, including wins at the Le Mans and Spa 24-hour races. “N.A.R.T. was supplied with a steady stream of competitive ex-Works racing cars, while the exposure and success on the track was effective advertising for Ferrari, especially in North America. It was a win-win scenario.” For over three decades, N.A.R.T. took on the factory might at high-profile races across the world, working with a small group of loyal volunteers and employees. Highlights were plentiful, but undoubtedly the greatest achievement was the brilliant albeit unexpected outright win at the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1965. Suffice to say, it was a mutually beneficial relationship between Chinetti and Ferrari – N.A.R.T. was supplied with a steady stream of competitive ex-Works racing cars, which enticed famous drivers and indulgent amateurs alike, while the exposure and success on the track was effective advertising for Ferrari, especially in North America. It was a win-win scenario. Over the course of its history, N.A.R.T. raced its fair share of left-field cars, not least the Chevrolet Corvette and the Sunbeam Alpine. This car, the unique Ferrari 308 GT4 LM, is another which falls under the same umbrella. The ‘Dinotto’ The oil crisis of the 1970s was a curious time for Ferrari dealers. And particularly so for those in the United States, a market which had outlawed the then-flagship V12-powered 365 GT4 BB and 365 GT4 on the grounds of emissions. As a result, in 1975, the only new Ferrari Americans could buy was the wedge-shaped 308 GT4 – a car which didn’t actually have the Prancing Horse emblem on its nose, but rather a square badge bearing the name Dino. Chassis 08020 captured inside the Ferrari factory during its early development phase Chinetti needed to raise demand for the baby 308 GT4 and fast. The most logical course of action? Take the car racing, of course. An approach was made to Enzo Ferrari in Maranello and once a wealthy backer had been found in the form of the Los Angeles-based collector Bill Schanbacher, factory development work began on the first – and only – 308 GT4 LM. We spoke with Dick Fritz, who served as N.A.R.T.’s team manager for many years, about the car’s conception. “Chinetti’s belief in the concept and his famous powers of persuasion were why the 308 GT4 LM came to be,” Fritz told us. “I’m not sure it was something the factory itself believed would be a success. But Chinetti always maintained that if sales of a particular new car were low, racing it was a surefire way of boosting its commercial appeal. That the 308 GT4 was the only new Ferrari customers could buy in the United States in 1974 only strengthened Chinetti’s case to the factory.” First, the ingegneri in Maranello subjected chassis number 08020 (among the earliest GT4s built) to a crash diet. The heavy steel panels, floors and wheel arches were replaced with lightweight aluminium or glass-fibre and the glass windows swapped out with Plexiglass, while the chassis was shaved of weight wherever possible. Competition-specification braking and suspension systems were installed, in addition to a single 180-litre endurance fuel tank. The characteristic angular Bertone bodywork was given an aerodynamic makeover with the addition of flared wheel arches, dams and intakes feeding various ducts and an enormous ‘whale-tail’ rear spoiler. There were a number of neat competition-oriented mechanical enhancements to the body, too, including gearbox oil and water inlets on each hip and a subtle external pipe reading the current fuel level. In the end, Ferrari was able to shave an astonishing 200kg from the production 308 GT4. Combined with a transversely mounted V8 upgraded with various 365 GTB/4 ‘Daytona’ Competizione components to produce a healthy 300bhp at 8,200rpm, the 308 GT4 LM was quick. One-hundred and seventy miles-per-hour quick. During the development period, a number of discreet tests were held on the marque’s hallowed Fiorano test-track, much to the intrigue and delight of the Italian press, which fervently christened the mysterious new Ferrari silhouette racer the ‘Dinotto’. Le Mans, 1974 Finished in its signature N.A.R.T livery, chassis number 08020 was sent from Italy directly to its first race: the 1974 24 Hours of Le Mans. Because of the nuanced homologation rules and requirements for the different categories in which cars could compete at Le Mans, the 308 GT4 LM found itself in somewhat of a grey area. “Because of the nuanced homologation rules and requirements for the different categories in which cars could compete at Le Mans, the 308 GT4 LM found itself in somewhat of a grey area.” The only class for which it was technically eligible was Group 5, since the 308 GT4 was too new and not enough of them had yet been built to satisfy the Group 3 and Group 4 requirements. The trouble was that while Group 5 had no minimum production requirement, it was the category specifically for the all-out purpose-built prototypes. Cars capable of winning the race outright. Nevertheless, N.A.R.T. and the drivers poised to be driving the ‘Dinotto’ at La Sarthe, Giancarlo Gagliardi and Jean-Louis Lafosse, were undeterred. It’s fair to say the 308 GT4 LM was in good company in the N.A.R.T. camp – the team fielded five cars at that year’s 24 Hours: three Ferrari 365 GTB/4 ‘Daytona’ Competiziones and an older Ferrari 312P which had been modified to resemble the angular 312 P/B. The 308 GT4 LM’s maiden outing on the Circuit de la Sarthe during the 1974 24 Hours of Le Mans Bizarrely, because of the homologation quandary, chassis 8020 was technically competing against the latter prototype and not the GT ‘Daytonas’ against which it was more equally matched. In fact, Gagliardi and Lafosse’s qualifying spot of 38th would have been good for 16th position in the GT class. Impressive for a brand new racing car with limited testing under its belt. Alas, after four hours and 30 laps of the race, clutch failure forced chassis number 08020 into retirement. Le Mans, 1975 Clearly encouraged by its performance at Le Mans, Enzo Ferrari blessed Chinetti with permission to enter the ‘Dinotto’ in the following year’s edition of the world’s greatest endurance motor race. The occasion was to present arguably the most controversial moment in the fabled N.A.R.T. story. Le Mans in 1975 was curious in that it was not included as a round in the World Sportscar Championship. As such, the Automobile Club de l’Ouest (ACO) had a bone to pick with Mr. Chinetti, whose N.A.R.T. outfit was fielding four cars, including a fascinating Michelotti-bodied 365 GTB/4 ‘Daytona’. Is there another competition car whose entire résumé was recorded on the Circuit de la Sarthe Despite Gagliardi and his new American teammate Harley Cluxton putting on a fine showing in pre-qualifying with the 308 GT4 LM, the ACO unfairly argued that the car was not quick enough compared with the Group 5 prototypes with which it was grouped and disqualified it. Fuming and visibly stressed, Chinetti threatened to withdraw all of N.A.R.T.’s cars should the decision be upheld. Junior driver Harley Cluxton concludes the story better than we ever could, so we’ll afford him the pleasure. “Oh, [Chinetti] was hot. You know, here he was – a three-time winner and N.A.R.T. had won the race in 1965. They’d even made him an honorary citizen of Le Mans, for God’s sake! None of the drivers had any idea of what was going to happen because Chinetti was in with the ACO and with no factory entries, he was Ferrari at Le Mans.” “There was no decision until Saturday afternoon, after all the cars, including the all four N.A.R.T. Ferraris, were lined up on the pre-grid. Finally word came down that the ACO would not relent and the 308 GT4 LM was to be excluded. We were all in our cars ready to go and Chinetti came out, walked down the pit lane and just said ‘Out!’ to all of us.” Barely an hour before the start of the race, he was forced to concede defeat. Call it passion or arrogance, the rules were the rules. The aftermath Despite the wholly controversial circumstances in which this Ferrari made its final competitive appearance, Chinetti retained chassis number 08020 for almost a decade, before selling to the US-based collector Howard Torman. Torman enjoyed several outings at North American historic racing events including the Monterey Historic Races at Laguna Seca. “The penultimate owner made the pilgrimage back to Maranello to have the car’s authenticity as a factory-built racing car certified by the Classiche department.” The next – and penultimate – owner of the 308 GT4 LM, a prominent Ferrari collector based in the UK, acquired the car in 1999. Not only did he commission a thorough recommissioning to return the Ferrari to optimum running conditions, but he also made the pilgrimage back to Maranello to have the car’s authenticity as a factory-built racing car certified by the Classiche department. In a fitting turn of events, chassis 08020 was returned to the history steeped asphalt of the Circuit de la Sarthe for both the 2004 and 2006 editions of the Le Mans Classic. It was a real treat to play a hand in selling this unique Ferrari thoroughbred and Le Mans veteran to its current owner in the summer of 2022. And it’s an honour to be entrusted with finding the ‘Dinotto’ an equally great new home once again. An unlikely candidate for a factory competition makeover, the Bertone-styled 308 GT4 is a fascinating chapter of the Ferrari story from an exciting period of aesthetic and commercial change for the Prancing Horse. Thinking about it, the decision to take it racing made perfect sense, even if it didn’t turn out to be the success story Il Commendatore and Chinetti had envisaged. That also is a testament to Chinetti, a man whose passion for life and motorsport, tenacity and ability to wield influence with the right names – be it marques, customers, racing drivers or authorities – has written him not only into Ferrari folklore, but that of motorsport in general. Conversation-starting collector cars don’t often come as interesting as this. And we’re sure the organisers of static and dynamic historic motoring events the world over would certainly agree. 1974 Ferrari 308 GT4 LM Girardo & Co.

Suffice to say, it was a mutually beneficial relationship between Chinetti and Ferrari – N.A.R.T. was supplied with a steady stream of competitive ex-Works racing cars, which enticed famous drivers and indulgent amateurs alike, while the exposure and success on the track was effective advertising for Ferrari, especially in North America. It was a win-win scenario. Over the course of its history, N.A.R.T. raced its fair share of left-field cars, not least the Chevrolet Corvette and the Sunbeam Alpine. This car, the unique Ferrari 308 GT4 LM, is another which falls under the same umbrella. The ‘Dinotto’ The oil crisis of the 1970s was a curious time for Ferrari dealers. And particularly so for those in the United States, a market which had outlawed the then-flagship V12-powered 365 GT4 BB and 365 GT4 on the grounds of emissions. As a result, in 1975, the only new Ferrari Americans could buy was the wedge-shaped 308 GT4 – a car which didn’t actually have the Prancing Horse emblem on its nose, but rather a square badge bearing the name Dino. Chassis 08020 captured inside the Ferrari factory during its early development phase Chinetti needed to raise demand for the baby 308 GT4 and fast. The most logical course of action? Take the car racing, of course. An approach was made to Enzo Ferrari in Maranello and once a wealthy backer had been found in the form of the Los Angeles-based collector Bill Schanbacher, factory development work began on the first – and only – 308 GT4 LM. We spoke with Dick Fritz, who served as N.A.R.T.’s team manager for many years, about the car’s conception. “Chinetti’s belief in the concept and his famous powers of persuasion were why the 308 GT4 LM came to be,” Fritz told us. “I’m not sure it was something the factory itself believed would be a success. But Chinetti always maintained that if sales of a particular new car were low, racing it was a surefire way of boosting its commercial appeal. That the 308 GT4 was the only new Ferrari customers could buy in the United States in 1974 only strengthened Chinetti’s case to the factory.” First, the ingegneri in Maranello subjected chassis number 08020 (among the earliest GT4s built) to a crash diet. The heavy steel panels, floors and wheel arches were replaced with lightweight aluminium or glass-fibre and the glass windows swapped out with Plexiglass, while the chassis was shaved of weight wherever possible. Competition-specification braking and suspension systems were installed, in addition to a single 180-litre endurance fuel tank. The characteristic angular Bertone bodywork was given an aerodynamic makeover with the addition of flared wheel arches, dams and intakes feeding various ducts and an enormous ‘whale-tail’ rear spoiler. There were a number of neat competition-oriented mechanical enhancements to the body, too, including gearbox oil and water inlets on each hip and a subtle external pipe reading the current fuel level. In the end, Ferrari was able to shave an astonishing 200kg from the production 308 GT4. Combined with a transversely mounted V8 upgraded with various 365 GTB/4 ‘Daytona’ Competizione components to produce a healthy 300bhp at 8,200rpm, the 308 GT4 LM was quick. One-hundred and seventy miles-per-hour quick. During the development period, a number of discreet tests were held on the marque’s hallowed Fiorano test-track, much to the intrigue and delight of the Italian press, which fervently christened the mysterious new Ferrari silhouette racer the ‘Dinotto’. Le Mans, 1974 Finished in its signature N.A.R.T livery, chassis number 08020 was sent from Italy directly to its first race: the 1974 24 Hours of Le Mans. Because of the nuanced homologation rules and requirements for the different categories in which cars could compete at Le Mans, the 308 GT4 LM found itself in somewhat of a grey area. “Because of the nuanced homologation rules and requirements for the different categories in which cars could compete at Le Mans, the 308 GT4 LM found itself in somewhat of a grey area.” The only class for which it was technically eligible was Group 5, since the 308 GT4 was too new and not enough of them had yet been built to satisfy the Group 3 and Group 4 requirements. The trouble was that while Group 5 had no minimum production requirement, it was the category specifically for the all-out purpose-built prototypes. Cars capable of winning the race outright. Nevertheless, N.A.R.T. and the drivers poised to be driving the ‘Dinotto’ at La Sarthe, Giancarlo Gagliardi and Jean-Louis Lafosse, were undeterred. It’s fair to say the 308 GT4 LM was in good company in the N.A.R.T. camp – the team fielded five cars at that year’s 24 Hours: three Ferrari 365 GTB/4 ‘Daytona’ Competiziones and an older Ferrari 312P which had been modified to resemble the angular 312 P/B. The 308 GT4 LM’s maiden outing on the Circuit de la Sarthe during the 1974 24 Hours of Le Mans Bizarrely, because of the homologation quandary, chassis 8020 was technically competing against the latter prototype and not the GT ‘Daytonas’ against which it was more equally matched. In fact, Gagliardi and Lafosse’s qualifying spot of 38th would have been good for 16th position in the GT class. Impressive for a brand new racing car with limited testing under its belt. Alas, after four hours and 30 laps of the race, clutch failure forced chassis number 08020 into retirement. Le Mans, 1975 Clearly encouraged by its performance at Le Mans, Enzo Ferrari blessed Chinetti with permission to enter the ‘Dinotto’ in the following year’s edition of the world’s greatest endurance motor race. The occasion was to present arguably the most controversial moment in the fabled N.A.R.T. story. Le Mans in 1975 was curious in that it was not included as a round in the World Sportscar Championship. As such, the Automobile Club de l’Ouest (ACO) had a bone to pick with Mr. Chinetti, whose N.A.R.T. outfit was fielding four cars, including a fascinating Michelotti-bodied 365 GTB/4 ‘Daytona’. Is there another competition car whose entire résumé was recorded on the Circuit de la Sarthe Despite Gagliardi and his new American teammate Harley Cluxton putting on a fine showing in pre-qualifying with the 308 GT4 LM, the ACO unfairly argued that the car was not quick enough compared with the Group 5 prototypes with which it was grouped and disqualified it. Fuming and visibly stressed, Chinetti threatened to withdraw all of N.A.R.T.’s cars should the decision be upheld. Junior driver Harley Cluxton concludes the story better than we ever could, so we’ll afford him the pleasure. “Oh, [Chinetti] was hot. You know, here he was – a three-time winner and N.A.R.T. had won the race in 1965. They’d even made him an honorary citizen of Le Mans, for God’s sake! None of the drivers had any idea of what was going to happen because Chinetti was in with the ACO and with no factory entries, he was Ferrari at Le Mans.” “There was no decision until Saturday afternoon, after all the cars, including the all four N.A.R.T. Ferraris, were lined up on the pre-grid. Finally word came down that the ACO would not relent and the 308 GT4 LM was to be excluded. We were all in our cars ready to go and Chinetti came out, walked down the pit lane and just said ‘Out!’ to all of us.” Barely an hour before the start of the race, he was forced to concede defeat. Call it passion or arrogance, the rules were the rules. The aftermath Despite the wholly controversial circumstances in which this Ferrari made its final competitive appearance, Chinetti retained chassis number 08020 for almost a decade, before selling to the US-based collector Howard Torman. Torman enjoyed several outings at North American historic racing events including the Monterey Historic Races at Laguna Seca. “The penultimate owner made the pilgrimage back to Maranello to have the car’s authenticity as a factory-built racing car certified by the Classiche department.” The next – and penultimate – owner of the 308 GT4 LM, a prominent Ferrari collector based in the UK, acquired the car in 1999. Not only did he commission a thorough recommissioning to return the Ferrari to optimum running conditions, but he also made the pilgrimage back to Maranello to have the car’s authenticity as a factory-built racing car certified by the Classiche department. In a fitting turn of events, chassis 08020 was returned to the history steeped asphalt of the Circuit de la Sarthe for both the 2004 and 2006 editions of the Le Mans Classic. It was a real treat to play a hand in selling this unique Ferrari thoroughbred and Le Mans veteran to its current owner in the summer of 2022. And it’s an honour to be entrusted with finding the ‘Dinotto’ an equally great new home once again. An unlikely candidate for a factory competition makeover, the Bertone-styled 308 GT4 is a fascinating chapter of the Ferrari story from an exciting period of aesthetic and commercial change for the Prancing Horse. Thinking about it, the decision to take it racing made perfect sense, even if it didn’t turn out to be the success story Il Commendatore and Chinetti had envisaged. That also is a testament to Chinetti, a man whose passion for life and motorsport, tenacity and ability to wield influence with the right names – be it marques, customers, racing drivers or authorities – has written him not only into Ferrari folklore, but that of motorsport in general. Conversation-starting collector cars don’t often come as interesting as this. And we’re sure the organisers of static and dynamic historic motoring events the world over would certainly agree.

Aston Martin V8 1 of 216 “Volante” examples ever produced with the Weber electronic fuel injection (V585 E.F.I) whom was introduced at the New York Motor Show in January 1986 alongside the similarly updated AMV8 saloon. The major advance was the fitting of electronically controlled sequential fuel injection system, made by Weber/Marelli giving a power output of around 315 bhp with the 5.3L displacement. As there were no carburettors within the 'V' of the engine and correspondingly no air cleaner assembly, the overall height of the engine was reduced and thus the E.F.I. cars have a totally flat bonnet with no air intake. All of the V8’s Weber e.f.i. cars had the attractive BBS cross spoke 7-inch wheels considered as rare and desired keenly by enthusiasts. Also comes standard from factory with the 3-Speed Torqueflite Chrysler automatic transmission. This unit premiered in the US where it had two owners during the 17 years it was in the country and later in 2004 it was imported to England where its third owner had a complete restoration carried out in "Jubilee Silver" color by Aston Martin specialists in Britain. 1987 Aston Martin V8 Autostorico Partners LLP If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

Lamborghini’s inaugural production car, the 350 GT, was the product of some of the best minds in the Italian automotive industry. Its engine was designed by Giotto Bizzarrini, fresh from exiting Ferrari during “the palace revolt,” and its chassis with four-wheel independent suspension engineered by Gian Paolo Dallara, while the bodywork was produced by the renowned Carrozzeria Touring. Unsurprisingly the striking automobile debuted at the Geneva International Motor Show of March 1964 to great acclaim, and it was quickly recognized as an impressive machine in both specifications and appearance—indeed, more rare and more advanced in its specification than many of the famous Ferraris of the period. About 120 examples of the 350 GT were built. It is thought that about 80 of these were delivered with all-aluminum bodywork, built by Touring using its ultra-lightweight Superleggera method of construction. These bodies were costly and time-consuming to construct, with the result being a net loss to Lamborghini and, therefore, a switch to steel bodies on later models. Unsurprisingly these early aluminum-bodied cars have better performance and are, thus, more desirable. Offered here is one of those rare aluminum-bodied 350 GTs and it is believed to have been the only example delivered in this striking combination of hues, Blu Notte over Tabacco leather. Its chassis, engine, and gearbox numbers all match those described on the Lamborghini Certificate of Original Configuration, showing that it remains very much the automobile that it was when delivered in 1965 to its first Italian owner, A. Comiti. The 350 GT reappeared across the Atlantic in 1971, when it was purchased by Steve Nyman of Seattle, Washington. Mr. Nyman would retain the car for 42 years before selling it in 2013 to Richard Molke of New Jersey. Mr. Molke commissioned noted Lamborghini specialist Gary Bobileff of San Diego’s Bobileff Motorcar Company to undertake a complete restoration of the car, including both mechanical components and body, from 2013 through 2016. With the work completed, the 350 GT was shown at the 2016 Amelia Island Concours d’Elegance, winning First in Class. In 2017 the Lamborghini was purchased by the present owner, a longtime and devoted collector of fine European performance machines. In his ownership nearly $60,000 was spent in further sorting, including going through the carburetors, ignition, clutch, and power windows in order to bring the car as near as possible to perfection. A later five-speed manual gearbox was installed, for better driveability, while the original numbers-matching gearbox remains apart from the car and will be supplied with it. Also accompanying is the aforementioned Lamborghini Certificate, as well as an original owner’s manual, advertising brochures, a book of restoration photographs, and documentation of the services undertaken for the current owner. This is one of the finest, most beautiful 350 GTs offered in recent memory, a wonderful example of the car that birthed the Lamborghini legend. 1965 Lamborghini 350 GT by Touring RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

Released in 1971, the code R107 chassis Mercedes-Benz has endured as a status symbol for over 50 years. Richly featured, impeccably well built, and powerful, this third generation of the Sportlich-Leicht class further developed the luxury tourer concept atop the foundations laid by the previous code W113 chassis. Produced for just shy of 20 model years, the R107 both starred in films and competed in overland endurance rallies in some of the harshest environments the planet has to offer. This duality further cemented Mercedes-Benz’s status as one of the foremost manufacturers of wonderfully engineered automobiles. Beloved by millions, the third generation of the SL roadster stands as one of the true greats. As shown on the vehicle’s maintenance booklet, this wonderful example of the Mercedes-Benz 560 SL was delivered new to Kansas City, Missouri finished in Signal Red paint over a Palomino leather interior with a black soft top fabric, in addition to the Signal Red hardtop. This convertible additionally left the factory with a Becker Mexico radio, heated front seats, automatic climate control, and power mirrors. Interestingly, the rear spoiler was eliminated as an option. The Carfax indicates this Mercedes-Benz made its way to California before being imported to Canada in 2010. By this point, roughly 32,000 miles showed on the odometer. The car would eventually enter the Dare to Dream Collection one year later, and it displays 47,101 miles on the odometer at time of cataloguing. A wonderful companion for sunny, fair-weather drives, this 560 SL exhibits the Stuttgart firm’s finest virtues: exceptional build quality, a robust powerplant, and effortless style. 1988 Mercedes-Benz 560SL RM Sotheby's 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 Released in 1971, the code R107 chassis Mercedes-Benz has endured as a status symbol for over 50 years. Richly featured, impeccably well built, and powerful, this third generation of the Sportlich-Leicht class further developed the luxury tourer concept atop the foundations laid by the previous code W113 chassis. Produced for just shy of 20 model years, the R107 both starred in films and competed in overland endurance rallies in some of the harshest environments the planet has to offer. This duality further cemented Mercedes-Benz’s status as one of the foremost manufacturers of wonderfully engineered automobiles. Beloved by millions, the third generation of the SL roadster stands as one of the true greats. As shown on the vehicle’s maintenance booklet, this wonderful example of the Mercedes-Benz 560 SL was delivered new to Kansas City, Missouri finished in Signal Red paint over a Palomino leather interior with a black soft top fabric, in addition to the Signal Red hardtop. This convertible additionally left the factory with a Becker Mexico radio, heated front seats, automatic climate control, and power mirrors. Interestingly, the rear spoiler was eliminated as an option. The Carfax indicates this Mercedes-Benz made its way to California before being imported to Canada in 2010. By this point, roughly 32,000 miles showed on the odometer. The car would eventually enter the Dare to Dream Collection one year later, and it displays 47,101 miles on the odometer at time of cataloguing. A wonderful companion for sunny, fair-weather drives, this 560 SL exhibits the Stuttgart firm’s finest virtues: exceptional build quality, a robust powerplant, and effortless style.

For collectors today, there is very little to dislike about the Ferrari 365 GTC/4 today. The imposing and curvaceous coachwork retained Pininfarina’s characteristic elegance and softness of line, despite the stringent North American regulations surrounding impact protection. Not only is the spacious interior an exercise in ergonomics, but the air-conditioning is positively arctic and, of course, there’s ample space for four people (the benefit of moving the gearbox from the rear of the car to just aft the engine). Beneath the bonnet is the commanding 4.4-litre four-cam V12 we came to know and love in the ‘Daytona’, just with more torque thanks to revised valve timing. And more torque is never a bad thing. Power steering as standard takes the sting out of long journeys – especially those which encompass city stops and don’t avoid them. And the 365 GTC/4 is a seriously rare car: only around 500 ever left Maranello, of which only 31 were in right-hand drive for the British market. Best of all? The value – especially compared to both its spiritual and actual predecessors: the GTB/4 ‘Daytona’ and the 365 GTC. Chassis no. 16153 On 20 June 1972, the Ferrari factory in Maranello received a telex from Maranello Concessionaires in London confirming the order of a new right-hand-drive 365 GTC/4. The car in question was this, chassis number 16153, which boasts a quite remarkable story and which, as a result, we’re delighted to be offering. Later that year, on 9 October, a Mr. R Wilcox from Buckinghamshire took delivery of this Ferrari, parting with £8,956 for the pleasure. He opted for a particularly elegant colour combination for the handsome Gran Turismo: Rosso Nearco, a luxurious deep subtly-metallic shade of red, over black leather and red carpets. As its accompanying ultra-rare factory warranty card attests, Mr. Wilcox returned chassis 16153 to Maranello Concessionaires to be serviced thrice in his first year of ownership, during which he covered just over 9,000 miles. Between Mr. Wilcox and one subsequent owner, a further 21,000 miles – including a trip to Maranello – were added to this Ferrari’s odometer reading before 1985, when it was acquired by one Mr. J W M Miller from Uxbridge. Mr. Miller took the decision to take this 365 GTC/4 off the road. Remarkably, as the plethora of accompanying invoices illustrate, what followed for chassis 16153 were 33 years of careful storage and maintenance. This Ferrari was only woken from its slumber in 2018, when it was subjected to a major service (including replacement of the self-level shock absorbers), issued an MOT certificate (the mileage was noted as 30,836 miles) and bought by its current owner. In the years since then, chassis 16153 has been serviced, had its Borrani wire wheels refurbished and been professionally detailed. The odometer currently reads 31,524 miles. Given the care that has been bestowed upon it by its mere four owners and, of course, the three decades it spent being carefully stored, this Ferrari 365 GTC/4 presents in beautifully original condition – it pervades that distinctly satisfying feeling from behind the wheel that only an old car that has never been restored offers up. Crucially, chassis 16153 retains all its original factory paraphernalia, including its leather documents pouch with manuals and the aforementioned warranty card, its tool kit, jack and even its ultra-rare first-aid kit. Citing a lack of commercial interest, Ferrari abandoned its V12 2+2 concept after the 365 GTC/4, waiting two decades before finally introducing a successor in the 456 GT – a Gran Turismo whose Pininfarina lines do certainly echo those of this car. It’s for very good reason why this a Ferrari that’s becoming increasingly desirable. Chassis 16153 is certainly the finest example we’ve encountered. 1972 Ferrari 365 GTC/4 Girardo & Co.

So much of Porsche’s success in the USA can be attributed to one person: Max Hoffman. A wartime immigrant born in Austria, he eventually settled in New York. The money earned from making costume jewellery enabled him to fund his first passion, which was cars. He duly began importing Europe’s finest across the Atlantic before falling in love with the 356, the diminutive new sports car from Porsche. But Hoffman felt that for the model to really take off in America, the marque needed to build a paired-back, more competitively priced version. Accordingly, in 1954, the open-top Speedster was born. The by-product of this simplicity was low weight, with the model 160 kilograms lighter than its Coupé sister model. That only enhanced the handling, prompting the Speedster to become a smash hit on circuit. Formula 1 race winner and 24 Hours of Le Mans victor, Dan Gurney, plus Hollywood actor and spare-time racer, James Dean, were among the most famous to hit the track. Further helping the model’s performance credentials, a road-tuned version of the four-cam engine found in the giant-killing 550 Spyder thorough-bred race car was then slotted into the 356. In deference to a 1-2 finish in class for the 550 on the 1954 running of the Carrera Panamericana endurance road race, these models carried the “Carrera” name. Fittingly, given the Speedster configuration of this left-hand-drive 1500 GS (standing for “Grand Sport”) example, chassis 82189 was originally delivered to New York via Hoffman’s renowned dealership in August 1956, as confirmed by a copy of the original Kardex sheet. According to the records of Karrosserie Reutter, this car was finished by the factory in white over black interior trim, with a matching black soft top. During its time stateside, this Speedster was enjoyed for its rev-happy 1.5-litre engine making 101 brake horsepower as it reportedly competed at some of the country’s most celebrated circuits, contesting events at Sebring International Raceway, on the Daytona banking, and at Riverside. Come 1992, the car was imported to Germany before being bought by Mr Hans Reuter in November of the following year. He commissioned a complete restoration, with chassis 82189 critically retaining its original Type 547/1 engine—a highly desirable and rare distinction given many were either pre-emptively or reactively replaced due to the fragile nature of the motorsport-derived Carrera unit. The car was, at some point, changed to red over a tan interior. While chassis 82189 is listed as a GS, it boasts some specifications that bridge the gap to the more performance-orientated GT (“Grand Touring”) model, the configuration believed to be original. It was completed without a heater, boasts the correct tachometer that counts all the way up to 8,000 rpm, and features a coveted Weber fuel-pressure regulator. Understood to have been brought to the UK in the late 1990s, this car has since been subjected to a bare metal respray to return chassis 82189 to its original white hue, while the interior was retrimmed to its current red finish. This example has also been fitted with a set of rare Rudge wheels. Bought in May 2014 by its consigning owner, a collector of significant road and race cars, this Speedster comes with a spare Rudge wheel fitted in the boot, the accompanying wheel nut spanner, plus a tool kit. It is also complemented by a Certificate of Authenticity issued by Porsche Cars North America. In May 2022, the Speedster was treated to thorough maintenance by marque specialist Maxted-Page. Most notably, an engine-out service was completed, while the brakes and suspension were recommissioned, plus the fuel system was overhauled before the car was submitted for an MoT. The accompanying invoice (available to view on file) totals £15,191. It is thought that only 75 GS Carrera Speedsters were built between 1954 and 1958. This example is made all the more exclusive by virtue of retaining its original, Solex carburettor-fed, side-oil engine. Chassis 82189 can be enjoyed for its fizzing driving experience and would be a welcome addition at discerning concours d’elegance, especially as Porsche celebrates the 70th anniversary of its defining Carrera Panamericana success. 1956 Porsche 356 A Carrera 1500 GS Speedster by Reutter RM Sotheby's 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 So much of Porsche’s success in the USA can be attributed to one person: Max Hoffman. A wartime immigrant born in Austria, he eventually settled in New York. The money earned from making costume jewellery enabled him to fund his first passion, which was cars. He duly began importing Europe’s finest across the Atlantic before falling in love with the 356, the diminutive new sports car from Porsche. But Hoffman felt that for the model to really take off in America, the marque needed to build a paired-back, more competitively priced version. Accordingly, in 1954, the open-top Speedster was born. The by-product of this simplicity was low weight, with the model 160 kilograms lighter than its Coupé sister model. That only enhanced the handling, prompting the Speedster to become a smash hit on circuit. Formula 1 race winner and 24 Hours of Le Mans victor, Dan Gurney, plus Hollywood actor and spare-time racer, James Dean, were among the most famous to hit the track. Further helping the model’s performance credentials, a road-tuned version of the four-cam engine found in the giant-killing 550 Spyder thorough-bred race car was then slotted into the 356. In deference to a 1-2 finish in class for the 550 on the 1954 running of the Carrera Panamericana endurance road race, these models carried the “Carrera” name. Fittingly, given the Speedster configuration of this left-hand-drive 1500 GS (standing for “Grand Sport”) example, chassis 82189 was originally delivered to New York via Hoffman’s renowned dealership in August 1956, as confirmed by a copy of the original Kardex sheet. According to the records of Karrosserie Reutter, this car was finished by the factory in white over black interior trim, with a matching black soft top. During its time stateside, this Speedster was enjoyed for its rev-happy 1.5-litre engine making 101 brake horsepower as it reportedly competed at some of the country’s most celebrated circuits, contesting events at Sebring International Raceway, on the Daytona banking, and at Riverside. Come 1992, the car was imported to Germany before being bought by Mr Hans Reuter in November of the following year. He commissioned a complete restoration, with chassis 82189 critically retaining its original Type 547/1 engine—a highly desirable and rare distinction given many were either pre-emptively or reactively replaced due to the fragile nature of the motorsport-derived Carrera unit. The car was, at some point, changed to red over a tan interior. While chassis 82189 is listed as a GS, it boasts some specifications that bridge the gap to the more performance-orientated GT (“Grand Touring”) model, the configuration believed to be original. It was completed without a heater, boasts the correct tachometer that counts all the way up to 8,000 rpm, and features a coveted Weber fuel-pressure regulator. Understood to have been brought to the UK in the late 1990s, this car has since been subjected to a bare metal respray to return chassis 82189 to its original white hue, while the interior was retrimmed to its current red finish. This example has also been fitted with a set of rare Rudge wheels. Bought in May 2014 by its consigning owner, a collector of significant road and race cars, this Speedster comes with a spare Rudge wheel fitted in the boot, the accompanying wheel nut spanner, plus a tool kit. It is also complemented by a Certificate of Authenticity issued by Porsche Cars North America. In May 2022, the Speedster was treated to thorough maintenance by marque specialist Maxted-Page. Most notably, an engine-out service was completed, while the brakes and suspension were recommissioned, plus the fuel system was overhauled before the car was submitted for an MoT. The accompanying invoice (available to view on file) totals £15,191. It is thought that only 75 GS Carrera Speedsters were built between 1954 and 1958. This example is made all the more exclusive by virtue of retaining its original, Solex carburettor-fed, side-oil engine. Chassis 82189 can be enjoyed for its fizzing driving experience and would be a welcome addition at discerning concours d’elegance, especially as Porsche celebrates the 70th anniversary of its defining Carrera Panamericana success.

It is hard to overstate just how truly ahead of its time the Porsche 959 was when it debuted in 1985. It unequivocally redefined the supercar market at its very highest end, where there are no compromises on performance or limitations on cost. The 959’s distinctive styling, mind-bending performance, and novel technological breakthroughs immediately made it a “poster car” for an entire generation of automotive enthusiasts. Helmuth Bott and Manfred Bantle’s team of engineers at Porsche were given free rein to pursue an enviably open-ended brief: To create the world’s most advanced—and capable—supercar. In every department, Porsche engineers utilized innovative technologies, no matter the cost, to unlock unparalleled levels of performance. Sequential turbochargers, cutting-edge adjustable suspension, an intelligent four-wheel-drive system, Kevlar composite body panels, and hollow-spoke magnesium wheels made the model nothing short of a game-changer. After testing the 959 with Bantle, noted journalist Csaba Csere remarked, “The most disturbing flaw of all is that you can't buy a 959. Not even if you have enough money…Porsche has sold out the entire production run…none of which was built to American specifications.” Nonetheless, a group of three extremely determined American enthusiasts still dared to dream of a 959: Ralph Lauren, Larry Hedrick, and Norman Stone. Together, these three men negotiated a special exemption with the US government so that they could enjoy their 959s on public roads. By the time negotiations were finalized during October 1992, the three had each paid $50,000 to the NTHSA, a much larger sum to AmeriSpec Corporation of Danbury, Connecticut to modify the cars for EPA emissions compliance, and a veritable mountain of cash to a Washington, DC lobbying firm. Offered here from the Dare to Dream Collection is one of the special 959s that featured in this fascinating tale of automotive enthusiasm. The 59th of 207 Komfort-spec examples produced by Porsche, it was completed at Zuffenhausen on 17 March 1988 and sold new to dealer MAS Meyer Automobile Service KG in Bonn, where it was briefly registered with the vanity plate “BN-KM959.” Three months later, this car was sold to Dr. Norman Clement Stone, a noted Bay Area art collector, psychotherapist, philanthropist, and Porschephile who local media say—and as the story of this 959 rightly affirms—“was always early to a trend, in either investment or fashion.” Documentation illustrates that Stone took delivery of the car on a Tourist’s Pass in Germany, after which it was imported to the Port of New York alongside Ralph Lauren’s 959 on 27 June 1988. Both cars were then sent under bond to Amerispec and modified for US emissions testing, and it is understood that the instrument cluster and odometer were changed to miles at this time. Following successful testing, Dr. Stone picked up his 959 from Connecticut and proceeded to drive it cross country to his home in San Francisco while using a California dealer plate which Porsche specialist Andial had loaned him. Amazingly, by January 1989 Stone had added nearly 9,000 miles to this 959! Over the following 25 years of his ownership, he had the car religiously maintained by both Andial in Santa Ana and Canepa Design of Scotts Valley. An exhaustive trove of service invoices dating back to 1989 leaves zero doubt that this special Porsche was enjoyed and cared for with equal enthusiasm. Fearing a shortage of parts available from Germany for his beloved 959, in August 2001 Stone had Andial order $45,000 of spare parts directly from Porsche to be kept as his own exclusive stash. The 959 has long been renowned by privileged enthusiasts as an eminently usable vehicle, with many examples of the model now having covered comparably high mileage to other supercars of the era. Even Porsche CEO Ferdinand Piëch, as well as Championship-winning Audi Group B works driver Walter Röhrl, daily drove examples of this remarkable model. In fact, Stone used this 959 as his daily transportation for more than 15 years, and when he consigned it to Canepa in 2009 for a suspension overhaul and mechanical diagnosis, the odometer indicated more than 68,000 miles. In 2013, the car benefitted from the Canepa Suspension Upgrade package, replacing the complex OEM hydraulic adjustable suspension with Penske custom-valved shock absorbers and titanium coil-over springs, among other improvements. This was carried out in concert with other service work for a total in excess of $51,000. In June 2014 Stone sold this 959 to the consignor, and he immediately returned it to Canepa Design for the beginning of a comprehensive 14-month interior and exterior restoration and upgrade regimen to the tune of $285,000. A substantial and detailed accompanying file of invoices follows each step of the car’s revival and subsequent transformation to Canepa’s vaunted, 640-horsepower “Phase II” specification. Included in these extensive upgrades was an exclusive Motec ECU and new wiring harness, a custom exhaust system, new pair of high-efficiency turbochargers, Canepa Design headlights, upgraded ignition and electricals, intercooler and wastegate modifications, and a laundry list of further improvements which have rendered a faster, more direct, and more comfortable roadgoing character to an already legendary supercar. Put simply, the Porsche 959 is amazing. Any collection would be immensely privileged to count an example of this legendary model among its ranks. The performance, technology, aesthetics, comfort: All combine to create an exceptionally outstanding vehicle of great importance. 1987 Porsche 959 Komfort RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

Introduced at the 1966 Turin Motor Show, the Maserati Ghibli took the automotive world by storm, powered by a potent new 4.7-liter dry-sump V-8 engine capable of developing 310 horsepower. Showgoers were awestruck by the groundbreaking coachwork by Ghia’s Giorgetto Giugiaro, who penned a low and wide aerodynamic coupe featuring pop-up headlamps, a raked windshield, and a sweeping fastback rear end. The Ghibli soon became the preferred choice of jet-set celebrities around the globe, finding favor with A-list buyers as diverse as comedic actor Peter Sellers, French New Wave cinema star Jean-Paul Belmondo, entertainer Sammy Davis, Jr, and professional basketball player Wilt Chamberlain. As with any great sports car coupe, customer demand eventually skyrocketed for an open-top version, and Maserati answered the call with a spyder that debuted on Ghia’s stand at the 1968 Turin Motor Show. With the roof removed, the coachwork design took on a totally different character, emphasizing the flowing beltlines and luxurious dimensions. The prototype proved to be the first of only 128 examples built, ensuring a degree of rarity that has only solidified the model’s cachet in the eyes of collectors today. Spyder production eventually phased almost exclusively to the uprated 4.9 SS engine that appeared in 1969. With an increased displacement of 4,930 cubic centimeters, and aspirated by larger Weber 42 DCNF/11 carburetors, the engine now developed 335 horsepower and 355 pound-feet of torque, delivering a commensurate uptick in performance. By the end of Ghibli production 45 examples of the 4.9-liter spyder had been built, of which just 30 were reportedly distributed to the US. Of those, just 24 cars were equipped with a manual gearbox, putting the featured lot in very exclusive company. According to Maserati records, chassis number 1239 was completed in February 1971, equipped with a 4.9-liter SS engine and a manual gearbox, finished in Rosso Fuoco (fire red) paint, and trimmed with an interior of Nero leather. The spyder was distributed new to a dealer in West Nyack, New York, and presumably remained in American ownership for the ensuing 40 years. By March 2012 the Maserati was owned by a collector in New York, and four years later it was acquired by the consignor. Faithfully finished in its factory-correct color combination of Rosso Fuoco over Nero, this Ghibli SS Spyder continues to present wonderfully, benefitting from a restoration that was obviously conducted at some point in the not-too-distant past. It is important to note that this Ghibli desirably retains its matching-numbers 4.9-liter SS engine, the hallmark of any truly collectible Maserati. It is also favorably equipped with a Blaupunkt radio, wire wheels, and air conditioning. Appropriate for enjoyment now, or a great candidate for a full restoration, this rare and beautiful Maserati spyder would make an outstanding complement to sporting collections worldwide, sure to tug at the heartstrings of any enthusiast of significant Italian sports cars. 1971 Maserati Ghibli SS 4.9 Spyder by Ghia RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.
