- 1973 Ford Escort RS1600
What is it? It’s a Ford Escort RS1600 MK1 – or, to put it plainly, the most successful rally car of the early-1970s. Capitalising on the advent of televised sport, more specifically rallying, Ford wisely saw the commercial value in sending its humble saloon-for-the-people onto the world’s special stages. The Escort’s inherent simplicity, robustness and versatility soon saw it racking up domestic and international victories in the hands of such legends as Hannu Mikkola, Timo Makinen and Roger Clark. Can you tell us about this Escort’s period Works history? Chassis number 99901 was prepared for its maiden competitive outing, the 1973 Safari Rally, in April of that year by the Ford Boreham Competition Department and allocated the registration number by which it would become popularly known: XPU 216L. Earmarked by the Works Ford Motor Company Ltd for Roger Clark and his co-driver Jim Porter, the car was one of five newly-built left-hand-drive RS1600s fielded by the factory in the notoriously challenging rally. XPU 216L made a terrific start, carving out a staggering 35-minute lead by the halfway point. Alas, mechanical maladies forced Clark and Porter to retire wondering what could have been. Having returned to the United Kingdom, XPU 216L’s next outing came in the Scottish Rally, where it was driven by a young Tony Pond. The Works drive was Pond’s reward for winning the previous year’s Escort Mexico one-make rally championship and the budding British prospect did not disappoint, finishing an impressive seventh overall. Also a prize-winner in the aforementioned Escort Mexico series, Russell Brookes took the wheel of this Ford for the Jim Clark rally, putting in a deft performance to finish second only behind Roger Clark. So strong had his performances been in the powerful 16-valve Escorts that Brookes was once again entrusted with XPU 216L in the RAC rally, though his fortunes were shattered by an accident in Sutton Park – conveniently (or not), the special stage nearest to his Worcestershire home. What happened next? Following the RAC rally, the Ford Boreham Competition Department replaced XPU 216L’s shell with that of a sister Works car, which had its own résumé including the 1973 UDT World Cup recce. Incidentally, the 1974 running of the UDT World Cup was to be this Escort’s final appearance. Andrew Cowan, with a generous sponsorship package from White Horse whisky, was at the helm for the mammoth 12,000-mile journey from London to Munich via the Sahara desert in Africa. Just 19 of the 52 cars which took the starting ramp completed the rally, of which XPU 216L was, remarkably, one. Has this Escort been restored? Yes. Ford sold XPU 216L in the autumn of 1974, though it wasn’t until 1991, when the car was acquired by an adoring competition Escort enthusiast, that the decision was taken to commence a full restoration to the original Works specification. No stone was left unturned in the painstaking seven-year process, from major components such as the original 1973 Ford Competition Group 2 body shell down to the smallest details including the Pye Westminster short-wave radio and the Gomm Metal Developments dry-sump fuel tank. An alloy-block two-litre Ford BDG engine was installed, mated to a period-correct ZF five-speed direct-top competition gearbox. The authentic Safari Rally livery was the proverbial cherry on the cake. “The decision was taken to commence a full restoration to the original Works specification and livery.” Several modifications made for safety, performance and ease of use in today’s competition, such as the constant-discharge Lucas electronic ignition, the AP Racing brakes with twin-Lockheed servos, the Bilstein suspension and the Safety Devices roll-cage. So it’s a prime candidate for historic rallying? Absolutely. Once the restoration was complete, XPU 216L proved to be a very competitive car on the historic rallying scene, winning the 1998 Historic Rally Car Register Championship (HRCRC) outright and finishing fourth in the 2001 MSA British Historic Championship. And there are a number of series today which would welcome this historically-significant Ford Escort with open arms including the aforementioned HRCRC and Reinhard Klein’s Slowly Sideways community, in addition to major rallying events such as the Goodwood Festival of Speed and Rally Legend in San Marino. Sell it me in a sentence...

- 1989 Ferrari F40
Enquire Send to a friend Send to WhatsApp Ferrari's 201 mph F40 is the definitive supercar and has a formidable reputation alongside the 250 GTO as possibly the best road Ferrari built to date. With the F40, Pininfarina produced an era-defining creation, one that even today is instantly recognisable by old and young enthusiasts alike. F40's were closely derived from the experimental GTO Evoluzione and the road-going 288 GTO (that the F40 replaced). The design features a tubular steel chassis with bonded composite inserts, most notably around the sills and floor pan, The 2,936 cc motor produces approximately 500 bhp at 7,000 rpm with the help of two water-cooled IHI turbochargers running 1.1 bar of boost. At 1,202 kg, the F40 had, and still has, a phenomenal power-to-weight ratio. Shatteringly fast by any comparison (especially for 1988), the F40 can sprint from 0-60 mph in just 4.4 seconds and hit 201 mph flat out making it the first production car to surpass this mystical boundary. This example was first supplied on 10th May 1989 as a ‘Diretta’ sale to Miss Elisabeth Kawan of Salzburg. Miss Kawan had earned her fame in 1982, being crowned Miss Austria and would later marry Formula One boss and serial entrepreneur Walter Wolf. The car was imported to the UK later that year by Mr Barratt who paid £895,000 for the car at the first peak of their values! Speaking recently he recalled driving the car just after purchase to the Ferrari Owners Club Christmas party in December 1989. Barratt would retain the car for several years, receiving both its 1,000 KM & 10,000 KM services in the UK. The car has been enjoyed regularly by each of its owners, and by 1996, it had covered 28,700 kilometres. The car was later exported to Holland and sold by Ferrari Kroymans who would service the car regularly between 1998 and 2002. During their time servicing the car for its owner, it would see continued regular exercise. The service history documents the mileage and during that four-year period, the car would cover a not inconsiderable 16,500 kilometres. The car spent six months in Germany before purchase by the most recent owner, in Austria once more in 2007. At the time of purchase the car was sent to Michelotto where a major service was carried out including fuel tanks and belts. In the care of the most recent owner, the car has been used more sparingly and as such covered just 3,000 kilometres in the past 15 years. The most recent owner had the car several times and most recently carrying out a major service including belts and fuel tanks once more in March 2022. This fabulous, wholly usable F40, in desirable non-cat, non-adjust form is available to view at our showrooms immediately.x 1989 Ferrari F40 D.K.

- 1973 BMW 3.0 CSL
The 3.0 CSL is a lightweight, performance-oriented version of the standard 3.0 CS/3.0 CSi coupé. Utilising the E9 platform, the 3.0 CSL was unveiled at the 1971 Geneva Motor Show and was introduced in May 1972 as an homologation model for the German Touring Car Championship developed by a separate division within BMW AG, a division that would later become BMW Motorsport GmbH.The CSL achieved some great results, with wins at Le Mans in the touring car class in 1973 and 1974, the IMSA GT Championship in 1975, and winning the European Touring Car Championships every year from 1973 to 1979 (apart from a minor blip in 1974).The 'L' in the designation meant leicht (light), unlike in other BMW designations, where it meant lang (long). A total of 1,096 CSLs were built, with just 500 of these being imported into the UK. The great majority of UK cars had the 'City Package' option fitted, designed to make the 3.0 CSL more usable as a daily driver. These versions retained the standard interior trim, negating the total weight saving somewhat, but the other benefits were retained, including aero kit, thinner gauge steel and aluminium parts. Early CSLs, produced in late 1971 and early 1972, utilised the standard 2,985cc M30 inline-six engine with twin carburettors and were only offered in left-hand drive. They were replaced by a fuel-injected model displacing 3,003cc available in right-hand drive during late 1972 and early 1973. Fuel-injected CSLs with the 3-litre motor have VINs that run from 2275001 through 2275429 (left-hand drive version) and 2285-001 through 2285-500 (right-hand drive UK cars). The fabulous CSL on offer here, finished in Taiga Green with a black interior, is #2285-469, indicating that it was built right at the end of the UK-allocated cars. Much of the early servicing was carried out by BMW dealer, Fairfield Garage of Leigh on Sea, at the instruction of of Mr. Hudson of the Facet Group. Multiple invoices show he used the CSL up to a mileage of 47,000. It then resided in Hertfordshire for nearly 21 years with its new lady owner, who obviously used it lightly as she covered less than 12,000 miles during that period. There is a record of some renovation work taking place in the mid-1980s prior to it being sold in 2003 at a mileage of 61,900, corroborated by past MOTs. In 2005, it was purchased by our vendor who has used and maintained it, with a full account of his expenditure on repairs and maintenance fastidiously kept in the comprehensive history file. The majority of the servicing from 2006 was conducted by our vendor's hometown garage, J.J. Griffiths of Lllandrindod Wells, with any bodywork attention by King of Cool Classic Cars and the front seats were retrimmed by West Country Trimmers in 2017. Most recent mechanical work was carried out by Munich Legends in 2021 and there is an invoice for an oil change in September 2023. This lovely, stylish, low-owners BMW 3.0 CSL coupé enjoys an impressive history file and service record and represents a fine example of the car that defined Touring Cars in the 1970s and, 50 years later, still has a presence that few cars can match. 1973 BMW 3.0 CSL Iconic Auctioneers Ltd If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

Utilising the E9 platform, the 3.0 CSL was unveiled at the 1971 Geneva Motor Show and was introduced in May 1972 as an homologation model for the German Touring Car Championship developed by a separate division within BMW AG, a division that would later become BMW Motorsport GmbH.The CSL achieved some great results, with wins at Le Mans in the touring car class in 1973 and 1974, the IMSA GT Championship in 1975, and winning the European Touring Car Championships every year from 1973 to 1979 (apart from a minor blip in 1974).The 'L' in the designation meant leicht (light), unlike in other BMW designations, where it meant lang (long). A total of 1,096 CSLs were built, with just 500 of these being imported into the UK. The great majority of UK cars had the 'City Package' option fitted, designed to make the 3.0 CSL more usable as a daily driver. These versions retained the standard interior trim, negating the total weight saving somewhat, but the other benefits were retained, including aero kit, thinner gauge steel and aluminium parts. Early CSLs, produced in late 1971 and early 1972, utilised the standard 2,985cc M30 inline-six engine with twin carburettors and were only offered in left-hand drive. They were replaced by a fuel-injected model displacing 3,003cc available in right-hand drive during late 1972 and early 1973. Fuel-injected CSLs with the 3-litre motor have VINs that run from 2275001 through 2275429 (left-hand drive version) and 2285-001 through 2285-500 (right-hand drive UK cars). The fabulous CSL on offer here, finished in Taiga Green with a black interior, is #2285-469, indicating that it was built right at the end of the UK-allocated cars. Much of the early servicing was carried out by BMW dealer, Fairfield Garage of Leigh on Sea, at the instruction of of Mr. Hudson of the Facet Group. Multiple invoices show he used the CSL up to a mileage of 47,000. It then resided in Hertfordshire for nearly 21 years with its new lady owner, who obviously used it lightly as she covered less than 12,000 miles during that period. There is a record of some renovation work taking place in the mid-1980s prior to it being sold in 2003 at a mileage of 61,900, corroborated by past MOTs. In 2005, it was purchased by our vendor who has used and maintained it, with a full account of his expenditure on repairs and maintenance fastidiously kept in the comprehensive history file. The majority of the servicing from 2006 was conducted by our vendor's hometown garage, J.J. Griffiths of Lllandrindod Wells, with any bodywork attention by King of Cool Classic Cars and the front seats were retrimmed by West Country Trimmers in 2017. Most recent mechanical work was carried out by Munich Legends in 2021 and there is an invoice for an oil change in September 2023. This lovely, stylish, low-owners BMW 3.0 CSL coupé enjoys an impressive history file and service record and represents a fine example of the car that defined Touring Cars in the 1970s and, 50 years later, still has a presence that few cars can match.

- 1964 Shelby Cobra 289 MKII
If ever there was a person who needed convincing of the appeal of the Shelby Cobra, we’d position them on the outside of Lavant corner at the Goodwood Revival during the RAC TT Celebration race and leave them to watch as the train of competing Cobra 289s squirm and slither round virtually the entire lap on opposite lock. It’s a spectacle which treads the line between majestic and savage – an awe-inspiring recipe of brute force and deft skill. As the Texan chicken farmer turned Le Mans winner Carroll Shelby had the foresight to install a powerful American V8 into the lightweight and nimble chassis of the British AC Ace, so one of the all-time great sports cars was born: the Cobra. And it’s not difficult to understand why this Anglo-American creation has captured the imagination of so many millions of people over the decades. “The Cobra has everything you want in a sports car: striking good looks, commanding power, comparatively delicate poise and agility and a hair-raising annoy-the-hell-out-of-your-neighbours exhaust note.” Thinking about it, the Cobra has everything you want in a sports car. Striking good looks, commanding power, comparatively delicate poise and agility and a hair-raising annoy-the-hell-out-of-your-neighbours exhaust note. What’s more, because of the relatively straightforward underpinnings and the bulletproof nature of Ford’s small- and big-block V8s, the Cobra was reliable. It’s small wonder that Shelby enjoyed so much success with the Cobra 289 on the racetracks of North America. Beyond the Cobra’s credentials as a physical sports car, it embodies a greater philosophy – that of Carroll Shelby’s unrelenting American Dream. Of the myriad road and race AC- and Shelby-badged Cobras built between 1962 and ’67, the magnificent example we’re delighted to be offering is a Shelby 289 MKII, which started life in 1964. Chassis number CSX 2475 Thursday 2 July 1964. The SS Pacific Fortune sets sail from England bound for Los Angeles on the West Coast of America. Onboard? A raft of AC chassis, awaiting their transformation into snarling Ford V8-powered Cobra 289s in the hands of the Stetson-wearing engineers at the Shelby American skunkworks. Among them was the car we’re so excited to be offering today: chassis number CSX 2475. Ultimately finished in White over a black interior, CSX 2475 left Shelby American in November of 1964, specified with a number of ‘Class-A’ accessories including tinted sun-visors, adjustable wind wings, white-side-wall tyres, a rear-view mirror, a hard-top and side screens. Quite remarkably, the sun-visors, wind wings, hard-top and the side screens remain with the car today, almost 60 years later. This Cobra was transported from Los Angelese to Knoxville Cobra Sales Co. in Tennessee, where it was acquired by its first owner, one Jack Armstrong from Massachusetts. “CSX 2475 was specified with a number of ‘Class-A’ accessories including tinted sun-visors, adjustable wind wings, white-side-wall tyres, a rear-view mirror, a hard-top and side screens.” With a view to contesting autocross events, it’s believed Armstrong made a number of motorsport-minded modifications including the addition of Crane heads, a remote oil-cooler, an aluminium oil pan, competition seatbelts and a full-width removable roll bar (which, once again, remains with the car today). Chassis CSX 2475 stayed in Massachusetts until 1982, when it was acquired by Donald E. Escolas from Georgia. Escolas recalled the memorable experience of collecting his new Cobra from Gus Zuidema’s Competition Automotive outfit. “Gus insisted on a road test, and although his driveway was under construction and a mess of mud, he drove my immaculate Cobra through it with a big grin!” So commenced a 24-year love affair between Escolas and CSX 2475, during which the car was cherished, enjoyed as intended and shared with the world. In 1987, the Cobra was featured on the cover of the definitive Shelby American World Registry and later starred in commercial adverts on the MTV and ESPN television channels. In 2004, the car was noted as ‘retaining its original seat and dashboard coverings, hardtop and side curtains, with an odometer just short of 40k original miles’. This Shelby Cobra passed through the hands of three further US-based owners and as the myriad accompanying maintenance invoices attest, they picked up right where Escolas left off with regards to properly looking after the car. Chassis CSX 2475 finally made the trip back across the Atlantic in January of 2017, joining the distinguished collection of Prince Rahim Aga Khan. The Cobra was subsequently registered in the United Kingdom with the number it retains to this day. “Today, it’s the condition – and, more specifically, the beguiling patina - of this unrestored Cobra that dazzles the most.” This Shelby was acquired by its current UK-based owner – a man with an extraordinary collection of historically significant road and competition cars including a Ferrari 250 GTO - in February of 2019 and has since only been used seldomly. Today, it’s the condition – and, more specifically, the beguiling patina - of this unrestored Cobra that dazzles the most. The exterior paintwork, applied by Gus Zuidema in 1980, has stood the test of time beautifully, showing wear commensurate with its age and only small signs of discolouration and blistering. The original black upholstery has accrued a deep shine with age and, despite the 45,000 miles on the odometer, has not worn excessively or torn. Even the competition seat belts, which were added by the car’s first owner, remain in place. As previously mentioned, the original factory hard top, soft top (including frames) side screens and roll bar accompany the car. The original Stewart-Warner gauges are all present and correct, including the rare additional SW fuel-pressure gauge which is noted in the Shelby American World Registry. Beneath the bonnet the original white paint is present on the firewall and, amazingly, the original wrapping remains around the front leaf springs. Suffice to say, chassis CSX 2475 wears its years of diligent care and enjoyment with pride. And from behind the wheel, it’s every bit as enjoyable as it is to ogle – fizzing with feel and that silky smooth and unresistant feel of an old car that’s never been completely apart. It’s an incredibly special car that deserves to be seen in the metal to be truly appreciated. 1964 Shelby Cobra 289 MKII Girardo & Co.

This is not just a car. This is a statement. An experiment. A breathtaking piece of engineering. Meet our new Alfa Romeo SZ, also known as Il Mostro—Zagato’s bold vision for an Alfa Romeo from the late 1980s. An era when Walkmans were still cool and neon colors dominated the streets. The SZ is anything but traditional. Its angular, almost futuristic lines resemble a concept car more than something that should legally be allowed on public roads. And yet, in true Italian fashion, it was produced. The bodywork consists of thermoplastic composite panels—cutting-edge technology for its time—mounted on the spaceframe of Alfa’s own 75 Group A racer. Under the hood lies the legendary 3.0-liter Busso V6, delivering 210 hp at 6,200 rpm. The sound? So mesmerizing that even the finest Italian tenor might consider shaving his mustache in admiration. The 0-100 km/h sprint? Just 7 seconds. The weight distribution? Perfectly balanced thanks to the five-speed transaxle gearbox, resulting in a go-kart experience wrapped in an Armani suit. The suspension comes directly from the Alfa Romeo 75 IMSA, featuring double wishbones all around and Koni dampers. These allow for adjustable ride height, so you can glide over speed bumps with grace—only to lower the Koni’s again and attack the next corner at full throttle. This particular example was originally delivered in Germany and made its way to the Netherlands in 2002. For the past ten years, it has been carefully cherished by an Alfa Romeo collector Pur Sang. Maintenance was entrusted to Alfa specialist Jean-Jacques van As—the man who knows the Busso V6 so intimately that he could rebuild it with his eyes closed.

- 1953 Ferrari 250 Europa Vignale
Although Ferrari is among the most globally-recognized Italian brands today, the company was largely unheard of in 1953. Ferrari began producing cars in 1947 (barely: three cars were built, followed by five more in 1948, and 21 in 1949), and 1953 was noteworthy because it was the first year during which they produced more than fifty cars. Nevertheless, the fledgling company won Le Mans for the first time in 1949, and among motorsport enthusiasts, it was a familiar name since Enzo Ferrari had successfully run Alfa Romeo’s sensational Grand Prix racing team during the 1930s. As early as 1949, Ferrari produced road cars, understanding that enthusiastic and wealthy owners would part with cash to drive a thoroughbred racing car on the street, something which interested Enzo only so far as the cash part was concerned. His first love was racing, a deeply costly activity, and the sales of road cars to bankroll motorsport has been an integral part of the Ferrari business since its earliest years. Aside from a handful of exceptions, Ferrari almost never styled their cars or built the bodies themselves during these early years, and accordingly, there were no standardized designs for what a Ferrari looked like. During this period, a variety of coachbuilders, almost always Italian, designed and built the bodies for Ferraris: firms like Allemano, Bertone, Ghia, Pinin Farina, Scaglietti, Touring, Vignale, and Zagato. Although Pinin Farina bodied some of the very first Ferraris built, their status as the default stylist for Ferrari’s road cars was not yet established at this point. At the beginning, road cars were most frequently bodied by Touring, although by 1950, Enzo began to shift this work to Vignale. The Vignale firm was still quite new, having been founded in 1948 by Alfredo Vignale, who began working as a panel beater at Stabilimenti Farina as soon as he finished elementary school. Just 33 years old when he started his own firm, he often worked closely with the wildly talented Giovanni Michelotti, who had also started his career at Stabilimenti Farina. Together, they were prolific and immensely creative. The bodies they designed, especially for Ferrari, were very different from what other coachbuilders were making for roadgoing Ferraris at the time. Most of the other designers produced cars that were spare, clean, and occasionally on the formal side, a reflection of the postwar austerity and the shifting stylistic conventions as designs sought to put distance between the fantastical, art-deco, streamlined designs of the 1930s and the new modern aesthetic that was then emerging. In contrast, Vignale designs were bold and flamboyant, in addition to usually being more low-slung and athletic. They also tended to be highly-detailed, intricate, and ornate even: they were fond of using port holes, scoops, vents, and recessed lights, all of which almost always punctuated by chrome trim. Other Vignale trademarks included two-tone paint schemes, chrome beltline trim inside and out (usually adorned with characteristic undulating etchings inside the car), and plenty of other brightwork. Their interiors were no less spectacular, with rich materials, occasionally lurid color schemes, and a wealth of decorative touches such as engraved silver and chrome trim on the dashboard and door hardware, switchgear, ashtrays, and really anywhere else handy. The resulting cars were incredibly decadent and bespoke: truly coachbuilt in a way that differs starkly from the standardized Pinin Farina designs of just a few years later. From 1950 to 1954, Vignale bodied more than 150 Ferraris and hundreds of non-Ferrari cars, but despite their prolific output, the cars were effectively one-offs. No Vignale body design fitted to a Ferrari was built in more than about a dozen copies, with many designs being used far fewer times. This particular car, 250 Europa serial number 0313EU, is representative of this. There is only one other car wearing this body in existence, although it is fitted to a different model of Ferrari, a 375 America, which shares its wheelbase and chassis design with this car. A second 375 America had a very similar body, effectively the same design but with different headlight and front fender treatment. A total of 22 250 Europas were built, of which 18 were bodied by Pinin Farina and three received closed Vignale bodywork. This car is the second of those three, with the first one wearing a different body design and the third one wearing an unknown Vignale coupe design because it was destroyed in a fatal accident in the Northeastern United States in the late 1950s. The 250 Europa model is significant for a number of reasons. It was the first of the enduring and iconic 250 line and with so many of them bodied by Pinin Farina, it represented a critical shift toward standardization of design that was required for Ferrari to grow into a volume manufacturer. This also laid the groundwork for a partnership that would see Pininfarina design every standard Ferrari production car for for nearly 60 years (308 GT4 notwithstanding), a collaboration that finally ended with the 2012 Ferrari F12, after which design work was brought in house to Centro Stile Ferrari. Confusingly, although the 250 Europa has a 3.0 liter V12 like every other 250, it is actually a different engine, being the long block Lampredi design used in the 340, 375, and 410, and not the Colombo 250 engine, which displaces 10cc less (2953cc against 2963cc) and has a shorter stroke of 58.8mm instead of 68mm. The Lampredi engine is physically larger and employs screw-in cylinder liners which allow the cylinder bore and thus displacement to be adjusted with relative ease. The result of this is that the 250 Europa feels more similar to the very early Ferraris than it does to the other variants of the 250, especially because of the Europa’s chassis and suspension design. On this car, that impression is heightened by the stunning Vignale body, which is intricately detailed and fabulously coachbuilt in feel, both inside and out. As befits such an extraordinary car, this example, 0313EU, has a fascinating story. It was completed in late 1953 and dispatched to Luigi Chinetti, then based in Manhattan. This car was the first Ferrari to be sent to the United States by the factory and thus it started a legendary decades-long commercial relationship between Chinetti and Ferrari. This relationship was doubtless spurred by the fact that Chinetti was responsible Ferrari’s first ever 24 Hours of Le Mans victory in 1949, personally driving the winning 166MM for all but 90 minutes of the race. Once 0313EU arrived in New York, it was displayed by Chinetti at the New York Motor Show during the last week of January of 1954, finished in the colors it wears today: Tabacco with Bruno Siena roof and beige leather interior. Chinetti repainted the car red with black roof before selling it to its first owner, Mike Garber of Framingham, Massachusetts. In April of 1958, the car’s second owner, George Parker, of Rome, New York, bought it for $4,900 plus a traded in Aston Martin. He used the car as his primary transport, and after getting married and taking a new job in San Diego, California in March of 1959, he drove 0313EU across the United States, a trip it made largely uneventfully aside from a leaking oil hose causing a delay twice. Parker’s growing family forced the sale of 0313EU in about 1960 and it was subsequently painted purple, fitted with nerf bars in lieu of the bumpers, and the original engine removed and replaced with a supercharged Corvette engine. By 1968, the car was red once more (this time without the black roof or hood spine), and still in Southern California, where it remained until a Northern California owner purchased it in 1976. It eventually fell into disuse and remained in dry storage in a garage in Palo Alto until being purchased by Tom Shaughnessy in 2003. He showed the car, then in need of restoration, at the Quail in 2004, and eventually sold the car on to Heinrich Kämpfer, a Swiss collector and Vignale specialist in 2009. At this time, 0313EU was very much unrestored, being finished in old red paint and missing its bumpers. Kämpfer set about performing a painstaking restoration with an exceptional eye toward authenticity. This included locating correct type nitrocellulose paint and mixing it to match 0313EU’s original color scheme. The leather was supplied by the same company, Arbo, which was originally used to trim the car in 1953. The missing bumpers were carefully recreated and plated together with the remaining brightwork. Every aspect of the car was carefully restored, both cosmetic and mechanical. Wherever possible, the original unrestored components were used as patterns, ranging from the netting for the headliner-mounted map pockets to the construction of the backing panels and insulation on door panels. A correct type 3 liter Lampredi engine, number 331, was located, rebuilt, dyno tested (at 5 hp more than the factory rating) and installed as well. All in, the restoration totaled nearly 5,000 man hours over the course of a remarkably short two years, in time for the car to publicly debut at Villa d’Este in May of 2012. At this event, the car won the Trofeo Foglizzo Award for best interior design. In early 2013, the car completed its Classiche certification, and was subsequently sold to an American collector via Bonhams. In 2015, the car was shown at Cavallino, where it achieved Platinum, in addition to winning the Classiche Cup. The car was featured on the cover of Cavallino magazine, and was also featured in Automobile Magazine in 2014. Since the restoration, the car has passed through the hands of a few American collectors and remains in superb condition, with light mellowing to the restoration but still presents stunningly. The car runs and drives extremely well. The engine is well-tuned and produces the magnificent, bassy, aggressive exhaust note unique to the Lampredi engine. Despite a displacement of 3 liters, it commands attention like no Colombo engine does, even the 5 liter ones. The engine carburetes well, has excellent throttle response, and pulls cleanly and evenly through the rev range. The synchromesh is effective and the gearchange robust and substantial in feel. The brakes are confidence-inspiring and symmetrical in their operation, while the steering is direct and free of excessive play. The chassis and suspension function as designed, offering a glimpse into the heroic character of the drivers who drove these early Ferraris in anger. s/n 0313EU represents an extraordinary opportunity to acquire a highly significant and unique early Ferrari, one which is presented with superlative attention to detail and incredible fidelity to its original configuration. Perhaps one of the most exciting parts of 0313EU is the extent to which it represents such a particular moment in Ferrari’s history. Among the last Ferraris bodied by Vignale, it comes from the end of the formative coachbuilt era of Ferrari’s history. At the same time, it is one of the first 250s built and accordingly, it forms an important part of Ferrari’s transition to being an established manufacturer. Additionally, 0313EU is intimately tied to Luigi Chinetti and is therefore highly significant to Ferrari’s entrée into the American market, which rapidly became Ferrari’s largest market, something which would persist for nearly 70 years. 0313EU’s appeal is further enhanced by the fact that it one of a small number of Ferraris powered by the Lampredi engine, whose unique character is incredibly singular, even compared to the iconic Colombo engine. Included with the car is the Classiche red book, two binders of documentation and photographs substantiating the car’s history and its restoration, Massini report, and Vignale-branded luggage. 1953 Ferrari 250 Europa Vignale ISSIMI, Inc If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

The body, engine with approx. 235 hp and technology of the Porsche 911 2.0 offered here were completely restored and rebuilt from 2021 to early 2023 by a well-known Porsche motorsport specialist in Holland, regardless of cost. The specialist has built up an excellent reputation in historic motorsport over the last few decades, including with leading cars in the 2.0L Cup. The initially pure racing car project, which cost over EUR 300,000, was finally completed as a noble outlaw of the road with a sensational power-to-weight ratio. The throaty sound of the engine, which has just been run in with just over 1,800 km, is a real pleasure even when stationary and the handling with short gearshift travel is simply phenomenal. This beautiful Porsche 911 is veteran-approved and leaves nothing to be desired in terms of sporty driving. The Porsche 911, also known as the nine-eleven for short, is the Stuttgart-based company’s best-known sports car and is regarded as the epitome of the brand. Body variants are the Coupé, the Cabriolet and the Targa. In the past, the Porsche 911 was successfully used as a racing car in the World Sports Car Championship and the German Racing Championship. The first 911 version built in series from September 1964 was the so-called original model presented at the IAA 1963 with a 130 hp 2-liter six-cylinder boxer engine.

The specialist has built up an excellent reputation in historic motorsport over the last few decades, including with leading cars in the 2.0L Cup. The initially pure racing car project, which cost over EUR 300,000, was finally completed as a noble outlaw of the road with a sensational power-to-weight ratio. The throaty sound of the engine, which has just been run in with just over 1,800 km, is a real pleasure even when stationary and the handling with short gearshift travel is simply phenomenal. This beautiful Porsche 911 is veteran-approved and leaves nothing to be desired in terms of sporty driving. The Porsche 911, also known as the nine-eleven for short, is the Stuttgart-based company’s best-known sports car and is regarded as the epitome of the brand. Body variants are the Coupé, the Cabriolet and the Targa. In the past, the Porsche 911 was successfully used as a racing car in the World Sports Car Championship and the German Racing Championship. The first 911 version built in series from September 1964 was the so-called original model presented at the IAA 1963 with a 130 hp 2-liter six-cylinder boxer engine. Even when stationary, this 911 is a homage to the original, the clarity of the mechanics and the art of omission.

- 1984 Porsche 911 Carrera
The Porsche 911 is one of the most recognizable and successful sports cars in the world. Since its inception in 1964, the 911 has gone through numerous iterations, each building upon the original formula and giving the world a pure driving experience. They are notable for continuing the tradition of having air-cooled, rear-mounted engines until 1997, being one of the last models to make the switch to water cooling. The 911 has also seen success in racing, with both private and factory teams modifying the cars and achieving a plethora of podium finishes. The G-Series 911 was produced until 1989, with engine displacements and numerous other factors changing throughout the years. The last version of the G-Series 911 generation came with model year 1984 and was dubbed the 3.2 Carrera, reviving the “Carrera” nameplate last used in 1977. As the name suggests, the model introduced a new 3.2-liter flat-6 engine that put out 207 hp in the North American market through a five-speed manual transmission. The disc brakes were bigger to help with heat dissipation, while improved oil-fed chain tensioners kept the bigger engine well-fed. A finned cooler was also added to improve oil cooling. The new L-Jetronic Fuel Injection System with Bosch Motronics 2 DME further improved the driving experience as well as the engine’s overall reliability. The Carrera 3.2 was available as either a coupé, targa, or cabriolet. A total of 76,473 examples of the 911 3.2 were produced, with 35,670 coupés, 19,987 cabriolets, and 18,468 targas. This particular example, Chassis # WP0AB0911ES122095, was built on September 14, 1984, in a fairly rare Kiln Red over a contrasting black leather interior. Today, this car remains in outstanding original condition and shows just under 29,000 miles from new. It contains almost entirely original paint, a wonderful original interior with desirable sport seats, and rock-solid, well-maintained mechanicals. The extensive optional equipment list includes a speedometer with two scales, a Blaupunkt Monterey radio, automatic rear 2-point seat belts, increased side door strength, license brackets, forged alloy wheels, leather sport seats, cruise control, black roof liner, front and rear spoilers, sport shock absorbers, “symbols for controls,” an alarm system, and an electric sliding sunroof. Three items removed from the factory car were the compressor & tire pressure gauge, rear fog lights, and vehicle identification plate. It was sold new just a month later by Continental Porsche of Portland, OR to its first owner. According to the CARFAX report and a sales listing from 2017, the car was garaged in 2002 with 26,000 miles on the odometer. It spent the next 15 years in that garage before being acquired by a now-defunct dealership in Los Angeles, CA. Their team proceeded to remove the engine, recondition it with a major overall service, and fit a new engine bay insulation pad. The clutch and pressure plate were replaced, the braking system was overhauled, the gas tank and its lines were cleaned, all of the fluids were flushed, and all new belts and tires were installed. This Porsche was then purchased sometime in 2018 by a fellow Oregon resident. In November 2019, they brought it to Matrix Integrated in Portland, OR who replaced several fuses and secured the horn button. The CARFAX reported a new owner in February 2020, also based in Oregon. In August 2020, they too brought the Porsche to Matrix Integrated for an oil change, an AC recharge with R134a, new rear hatch struts, and a brake system flush. That same month, the car was offered for sale by Grand Prix Motors of Portland, OR, and later headed to its new owner in California. In May 2021, this 911 visited Sublime Silverlake, an independent Porsche shop in Los Angeles, CA. It was treated to a new European-style headlight assembly, new headlight rims, H4 LED lights, a support ring for the steering shaft bearing, and the timing chain cover gaskets. It returned in January 2022 for an oil change, clutch adjustment, belt tension and idle adjustment, as well as the installation of the original Blaupunkt radio. Porsches of this vintage continue to be desirable models on the market. This specific one benefits from being a fantastic original car with under 30,000 miles on the odometer and a plethora of optional equipment from the factory. The rare Kiln Red paint is all-original save for the rear bumper, which has been re-sprayed. All of the factory stickers remain in their stock locations, while the original interior presents very well and retains its factory sport seats. This 911 is sure to turn heads at any car event it attends, while the lengthy option sheet and originality will awe any Porsche enthusiasts who lay eyes on it. It’s the best of both worlds! Upon purchase, the new owner will receive the original owner’s manuals, the service book with option code sticker and eight service stamps, the factory spare, the original toolkit, jack, and air pump, as well as an extra set of keys and available service documentation. THE DETAILS EXTERIOR Body And Paint The Kiln Red exterior color is a fantastic compliment to the classic lines of this Carrera. The paint appears to be largely original throughout the car, metering consistent across the entirety of the exterior, with the exception of the rear bumper, which appears to have been re-sprayed at some point in the car’s life. Given the original nature of the paint, there are minor imperfections that come with the territory. Most of these are relegated to small stone chips, some of which have been touched up in the front section of the car. There is also a small crack in the edge of the whale tail spoiler on the driver's side, but it does not appear to be structurally compromised. The mirrors contain stereotypical stone peppering, some of which has been touched up. There is a small section on the passenger side door with four little spots of paint rub through. There is also a small hairline scratch just in front of the passenger rear tail light. There is a bit of scratching to the drip rail above the driver-side door, likely from entry and egress. Overall, the paint contains excellent color throughout the vehicle, with a smooth and consistent finish to the color. Given its original nature, the paint has held up remarkably well. The body itself is straight and clean down the sides with no issues to note. The gaps are all extremely tight, and fitment throughout the car is spot on, as you would expect with a vehicle of this low mileage. Glass And Trim The glass throughout the car appears to be all original, with the proper Sekurit stampings on each of the side panes and the rear window. The front windshield is stamped Sigla, as it should be. All the glass is clean and clear, with no issues present and no deamination showing. The black trim surrounding the windows is in great condition, with a smooth finish and excellent fitment. The rubber trim throughout the car remains in fantastic condition with great color and a nice supple nature. The accordions on the sides of the bumpers, often a common issue with these vehicles, fit nicely and show excellent color. There is some minor scratching to the lower lip as well as on the bumper over riders on the rear of the car. There is a small stone chip in the black trim on the bottom edge of the windshield, as well as a few more minor stone chips here and there on the windshield surround. Wheels The wheels are the correct five-spoke Fuch wheels with painted centers and polished lips. They remain in excellent condition with clean, polished surfaces and smooth painted centers and lugs. There are a few minor stone chips on the painted faces, but the wheels appear to likely be the original finish as well, given the overall mileage of the car. The center caps contain a bit of fading, but overall, they tie into the original nature of the car fantastically. Notable Flaws Given the highly original nature of this Carrera, there are inherent flaws that come with the territory, largely relegated to small stone chips in high traffic and wear areas such as the front of the vehicle. There are also some minor scratches, but nothing that takes away from the overall quality and character of the car, especially given its highly original nature. Please review the photos in detail to truly understand the exact condition of this vehicle. INTERIOR Seats And Surfaces The interior of this car presents in excellent original condition. Overall, the interior is very in line with the mileage and careful ownership that this car has received. The sport seats with their deep bolsters show in excellent condition with just a small bit of patina developing in the form of minor creasing and light patina to the bolsters on the driver's side, as well as some very minor creasing to the seating surface on the driver's side seat. The passenger side seat has fared remarkably well and shows minimal wear. The rear seats are also in excellent condition and have seen minimal usage. The leather-covered dash has a bit of warping where it meets the windshield and some pulling around the vent located in the center of the dash. None of this, however, takes away from the excellent and well-preserved nature of the interior. The driver-side door shows a bit of scratching from entry and exit when pulling the handle. The carpets retain excellent color and weave as well as fitment. The headliner remains nice and tight and shows no issues whatsoever. The three spokes steering wheel remains in fantastic condition with clean stitching and a nice smooth center horn button. The rim has just a bit of scratching, mainly relegated to the lower section of it, likely from normal usage. The gauges all remain clean and clear with excellent color, visibility, and readability. The original unleaded fuel-only sticker is still attached to the fuel gauge, and the dash is adorned with the sticker, indicating how to use the cruise control. The remainder of the buttons, switches, and knobs throughout the cabin show to be in excellent condition with bright, clean, and clear graphics. Functionality And Accessories Everything on the interior appears to function as it should during our brief testing. The gauges all read their requisite functions as they should, the doors open and close with ease, and the power windows roll up and down smoothly. The shifter moves easily through its range of motion, and the overhead lights, situated above the doors, illuminate when the doors are opened. The HVAC system appears to function as it should, although extensive testing was not carried out. The glove box light works, as it should illuminating when the door is opened. The power-operated sunroof also moves forward and backward with ease, as it should. Overall it appears everything on the interior has received the proper attention it needed and remains in good order. ENGINE BAY AND TRUNK Engine Bay The engine bay remains in good original condition, much like the rest of the vehicle. Factory markings and stickers adorn the entirety of the engine bay. Correct components were utilized when servicing the engine, and from an exterior perspective, it appears that there are no issues to speak of. The oil cooler located on the underside of the lid is in good condition, with only a few misaligned fins. Oftentimes, these coolers can get very beat up, but this one remains in good condition. Factory spot welds are clearly present around the edges of the engine bay. The whale tail spoiler has its proper Porsche crest and insignia located just below the rubber lip. Overall, it is a very genuine and original engine bay that shows to have had the proper servicing and upkeep throughout its lifetime. Trunk Area The front trunk area is, likewise, in good order. The carpets are a bit baggy, but overall fitment is acceptable, and the weave and color are still in good order. One of the snaps has separated from the side carpeting on the passenger side, but the remaining snaps all appear to be in good order. Lifting the carpet reveals a clean and tidy front trunk area with a factory space saver spare that appears to have seen minimal if any, use ever. The color designation sticker, as well as the Vin stamp, are clearly present, and there are factory markings throughout the bulk of the front trunk area as well. Lifting the lid to the blower box reveals no issues to speak of, and factory markings are present here as well. The underside of the hood is clean and tidy and contains the proper options code sticker. Underside The underside of this car presents very genuinely and in line with the mileage. There are some minor rock chips on the undersides of the rear quarter panels behind the wheels. The wheel wells appear a touch dirty but very genuine and original. The rockers are in good order, with no creasing or issues to be noted. There is a small dent just above the front license plate mounting hole on the passenger side, but it has not broken the paint. Suspension components show no issues but do have a bit of road dirt accumulation on them. It is our opinion that this car would benefit greatly from a good dry ice cleaning on the underside, which would no doubt reveal fantastic factory finishes throughout. Overall, though, the underside remains genuine and honest and appears in line with the great original nature of the rest of the vehicle. It does not show to have any issues past or present. MECHANICALS Engine The 3.2 L flat-six engine fires to life with ease and has the stereotypical air-cooled Porsche growl. It settles into a smooth idle as the temperature climbs and shows no issues in its running nature. Out on the road, this car makes excellent power in a superb linear nature. There are no flat spots or stumbling in acceleration, and the car pulls wonderfully throughout the entire rev range. It is very clear, given the excellent running nature of the engine, that this car has received the proper servicing and care throughout its lifetime. Transmission The 5-speed transmission shifts easily through the gears and engages each gear properly. It does take some getting used to driving these earlier gearboxes as the shifting has to be a bit more deliberate in order to smoothly find gears when traveling at pace. The clutch feels strong and responsive, and it has proper take-up and excellent feedback. Overall, there are no issues to note here and the car drives wonderfully. Brakes And Suspension The suspension feels extremely tight, much like it must have when this car was new. It holds the road excellently and provides fantastic feedback. The steering is light and nimble, and there are no odd road noises or behaviors to speak of. The brakes bring the car to a smooth and controlled stop with no issues to note. Overall, this car drives immaculately and is truly a joy to be behind the wheel. Tires The tires are Bridgestone Penza RE970AS pole positions on all four corners. The rears are 225/50R16 with date codes of 2016. The front also have the codes of 2016 and our sized 205/55/R16. Even though the tires contain nice supple sidewalls and ample tread, if extended use is to be carried out, we would recommend putting a new set of tires on given the age of the current ones. DRIVING EXPERIENCE As you approach this car, you are greeted first by the fantastic color of the Kiln Red exterior, which compliments the classic flowing lines of this Carrera wonderfully. As you look closer, you notice the wonderful original nature of the car, which lends itself perfectly to driving and enjoying this air-cooled beauty, which is exactly what this car is best at. The engine feels incredibly strong, and the suspension is tight and compliant with light and nimble steering. Oftentimes, these cars can feel a bit sloppy, but this example remains extremely tight and feels much like it must have when new. The well-optioned interior with the bucketed sports seats is a pleasant place to pilot this wonderful car from. There are many 911s out there, but this one, with its thoroughly original nature and rare-colored exterior, presents a unique opportunity to have the perfect drivers 911 that will turn heads no matter where you go. 1984 Porsche 911 Carrera LBI Limited If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

Overall, the interior is very in line with the mileage and careful ownership that this car has received. The sport seats with their deep bolsters show in excellent condition with just a small bit of patina developing in the form of minor creasing and light patina to the bolsters on the driver's side, as well as some very minor creasing to the seating surface on the driver's side seat. The passenger side seat has fared remarkably well and shows minimal wear. The rear seats are also in excellent condition and have seen minimal usage. The leather-covered dash has a bit of warping where it meets the windshield and some pulling around the vent located in the center of the dash. None of this, however, takes away from the excellent and well-preserved nature of the interior. The driver-side door shows a bit of scratching from entry and exit when pulling the handle. The carpets retain excellent color and weave as well as fitment. The headliner remains nice and tight and shows no issues whatsoever. The three spokes steering wheel remains in fantastic condition with clean stitching and a nice smooth center horn button. The rim has just a bit of scratching, mainly relegated to the lower section of it, likely from normal usage. The gauges all remain clean and clear with excellent color, visibility, and readability. The original unleaded fuel-only sticker is still attached to the fuel gauge, and the dash is adorned with the sticker, indicating how to use the cruise control. The remainder of the buttons, switches, and knobs throughout the cabin show to be in excellent condition with bright, clean, and clear graphics. Functionality And Accessories Everything on the interior appears to function as it should during our brief testing. The gauges all read their requisite functions as they should, the doors open and close with ease, and the power windows roll up and down smoothly. The shifter moves easily through its range of motion, and the overhead lights, situated above the doors, illuminate when the doors are opened. The HVAC system appears to function as it should, although extensive testing was not carried out. The glove box light works, as it should illuminating when the door is opened. The power-operated sunroof also moves forward and backward with ease, as it should. Overall it appears everything on the interior has received the proper attention it needed and remains in good order. ENGINE BAY AND TRUNK Engine Bay The engine bay remains in good original condition, much like the rest of the vehicle. Factory markings and stickers adorn the entirety of the engine bay. Correct components were utilized when servicing the engine, and from an exterior perspective, it appears that there are no issues to speak of. The oil cooler located on the underside of the lid is in good condition, with only a few misaligned fins. Oftentimes, these coolers can get very beat up, but this one remains in good condition. Factory spot welds are clearly present around the edges of the engine bay. The whale tail spoiler has its proper Porsche crest and insignia located just below the rubber lip. Overall, it is a very genuine and original engine bay that shows to have had the proper servicing and upkeep throughout its lifetime. Trunk Area The front trunk area is, likewise, in good order. The carpets are a bit baggy, but overall fitment is acceptable, and the weave and color are still in good order. One of the snaps has separated from the side carpeting on the passenger side, but the remaining snaps all appear to be in good order. Lifting the carpet reveals a clean and tidy front trunk area with a factory space saver spare that appears to have seen minimal if any, use ever. The color designation sticker, as well as the Vin stamp, are clearly present, and there are factory markings throughout the bulk of the front trunk area as well. Lifting the lid to the blower box reveals no issues to speak of, and factory markings are present here as well. The underside of the hood is clean and tidy and contains the proper options code sticker. Underside The underside of this car presents very genuinely and in line with the mileage. There are some minor rock chips on the undersides of the rear quarter panels behind the wheels. The wheel wells appear a touch dirty but very genuine and original. The rockers are in good order, with no creasing or issues to be noted. There is a small dent just above the front license plate mounting hole on the passenger side, but it has not broken the paint. Suspension components show no issues but do have a bit of road dirt accumulation on them. It is our opinion that this car would benefit greatly from a good dry ice cleaning on the underside, which would no doubt reveal fantastic factory finishes throughout. Overall, though, the underside remains genuine and honest and appears in line with the great original nature of the rest of the vehicle. It does not show to have any issues past or present. MECHANICALS Engine The 3.2 L flat-six engine fires to life with ease and has the stereotypical air-cooled Porsche growl. It settles into a smooth idle as the temperature climbs and shows no issues in its running nature. Out on the road, this car makes excellent power in a superb linear nature. There are no flat spots or stumbling in acceleration, and the car pulls wonderfully throughout the entire rev range. It is very clear, given the excellent running nature of the engine, that this car has received the proper servicing and care throughout its lifetime. Transmission The 5-speed transmission shifts easily through the gears and engages each gear properly. It does take some getting used to driving these earlier gearboxes as the shifting has to be a bit more deliberate in order to smoothly find gears when traveling at pace. The clutch feels strong and responsive, and it has proper take-up and excellent feedback. Overall, there are no issues to note here and the car drives wonderfully. Brakes And Suspension The suspension feels extremely tight, much like it must have when this car was new. It holds the road excellently and provides fantastic feedback. The steering is light and nimble, and there are no odd road noises or behaviors to speak of. The brakes bring the car to a smooth and controlled stop with no issues to note. Overall, this car drives immaculately and is truly a joy to be behind the wheel. Tires The tires are Bridgestone Penza RE970AS pole positions on all four corners. The rears are 225/50R16 with date codes of 2016. The front also have the codes of 2016 and our sized 205/55/R16. Even though the tires contain nice supple sidewalls and ample tread, if extended use is to be carried out, we would recommend putting a new set of tires on given the age of the current ones. DRIVING EXPERIENCE As you approach this car, you are greeted first by the fantastic color of the Kiln Red exterior, which compliments the classic flowing lines of this Carrera wonderfully. As you look closer, you notice the wonderful original nature of the car, which lends itself perfectly to driving and enjoying this air-cooled beauty, which is exactly what this car is best at. The engine feels incredibly strong, and the suspension is tight and compliant with light and nimble steering. Oftentimes, these cars can feel a bit sloppy, but this example remains extremely tight and feels much like it must have when new. The well-optioned interior with the bucketed sports seats is a pleasant place to pilot this wonderful car from. There are many 911s out there, but this one, with its thoroughly original nature and rare-colored exterior, presents a unique opportunity to have the perfect drivers 911 that will turn heads no matter where you go.

This 1994 Lancia Delta HF Integrale Evoluzione II Dealer’s Collection is #54 of just 180 units, the final and most exclusive edition of Lancia’s legendary rally icon. Finished in its correct Pearl Red (Rosso Perlato) with beige leather Recaro seats, the Dealer’s Collection was created as a tribute to Lancia’s unmatched dominance—six consecutive World Rally Championships from 1987–1992. Originally delivered new to a dealership in Tokyo’s Shinagawa ward in 1995, this example remains beautifully preserved with 48,504 verified kilometers and full Japanese documentation. Unique features include a numbered plaque, push-button start, OMP footrest, and anthracite wheels, marking it as one of the most desirable Evoluzione II variants. Powered by the legendary 2.0L turbocharged 16V engine paired with Lancia’s renowned AWD system, the Evoluzione II benefits from wider tracks, improved suspension geometry, and upgraded braking—offering the sharp, rally-bred performance that made the Integrale a motorsport legend. This example received recent servicing at Car Cave, including a timing belt and drivetrain inspection, and presents with excellent cosmetics, deep-tread tires, and strong mechanical health. Having sold and serviced more than twenty Integrales, Car Cave confirms this is one of the finest Dealer’s Collection cars available today. A rare opportunity to own the ultimate evolution of the world-beating Integrale—beautifully documented, limited, and highly collectible. 1994 Lancia Delta HF integrale Sedici Car Cave USA If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

We are proud to present an extraordinary opportunity to own a piece of Formula 1 history: the 1997 Ferrari F310B, exclusively driven by Michael Schumacher. As curators of investment-grade automobiles, we don't just sell cars—we preserve legacies. This unrestored, race-ready icon, acquired from a Ferrari executive board member, will be showcased at The Quail and the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance, offering collectors a chance to acquire a car with an unparalleled story. In 1997, Ferrari's 50th anniversary year, the F310B marked a turning point for the Maranello team. Refined by legends John Barnard, Rory Byrne, and Ross Brawn, this car was a leap forward from its predecessor, boasting a more reliable 046/2 V10 engine, advanced aerodynamics, and a cutting-edge seven-speed gearbox actuation system. It was Ferrari's final wide-track racer before 1998 regulations, making this chassis a rare artifact of a pivotal era. This very chassis carried Schumacher to victory at the 1997 Japan Grand Prix at Suzuka, one of five wins that season (Monaco, Canada, France, Belgium, and Japan). With 102 points, Ferrari mounted its strongest championship challenge since 1990. The F310B's most dramatic moment came at the 1997 Jerez finale, where Schumacher and Jacques Villeneuve, separated by a single point, battled for the Drivers' Championship. In an unprecedented qualifying session, Schumacher, Villeneuve, and Heinz-Harald Frentzen posted identical times of 1:21.072—a statistical anomaly. The race itself became infamous when Schumacher's attempt to defend his lead resulted in a controversial collision, leading to his disqualification from the season but cementing this chassis place in F1 lore. Unrestored and in as-raced condition, this chassis remains a living testament to Ferrari's relentless pursuit of excellence and Schumacher's uncompromising drive. Having seen limited track-day use, it is both a collector's masterpiece and a functional piece of motorsport history. This is more than a car—it's a Hollywood-worthy saga of triumph, controversy, and redemption. Join us during Car Week 2025 as we unveil this special art piece at The Quail and Pebble Beach Concours to experience this iconic Ferrari F310B. For inquiries about this singular investment opportunity, contact our team of curators. Michael Schumacher drove this F310B, chassis to victory in the 1997 Japan Grand Prix at Suzuka.

- 1967 Lamborghini 400GT 2+2
Lamborghini factory restoration Excellently documented Over 40 years with one owner FIVA Pass „Matching-Number“ As Ferrari did not meet his requirements, the Italian industrial magnate Ferrucio Lamborghini decided to produce his own sports car. Lamborghini only accepted the best technical solutions, which were not (yet) available from Ferrari at the time: Large V12 engines with four overhead camshafts and six twin carburettors, independent suspension all round on trapezoidal wishbones, etc. Two Italian grand masters of automotive engineering, Giotto Bizzarini and Giampaolo Dallara, did their best. The 400 GT was presented at the Geneva Motor Show in 1966. Only 273 examples were produced between 1965 and 1968. According to available documents, the vehicle presented here was delivered in Portugal in 1967. Later the car was sold to Norway where it remained with one owner for more than 40 years. Its Norwegian owner had the car completely restored under his direction at the Lamborghini facto in accordance with its delivery specifications. Extensive documentation on the history of the car and the restoration process is available. The car has now been with its current owner in Germany since 2007. The vehicle presents itself in first-class condition. A rare opportunity to acquire one of the best and most thoroughbred GT cars of the 1960s. Equipment: 5-speed gearbox 4x disc brakes Borrani spoked wheels Engine: V12 engine with four overhead camshafts, 3,929 cm³, 320 hp, max. speed 260 km/h.

Lamborghini only accepted the best technical solutions, which were not (yet) available from Ferrari at the time: Large V12 engines with four overhead camshafts and six twin carburettors, independent suspension all round on trapezoidal wishbones, etc. Two Italian grand masters of automotive engineering, Giotto Bizzarini and Giampaolo Dallara, did their best. The 400 GT was presented at the Geneva Motor Show in 1966. Only 273 examples were produced between 1965 and 1968. According to available documents, the vehicle presented here was delivered in Portugal in 1967. Later the car was sold to Norway where it remained with one owner for more than 40 years. Its Norwegian owner had the car completely restored under his direction at the Lamborghini facto in accordance with its delivery specifications. Extensive documentation on the history of the car and the restoration process is available. The car has now been with its current owner in Germany since 2007. The vehicle presents itself in first-class condition. A rare opportunity to acquire one of the best and most thoroughbred GT cars of the 1960s. Equipment: 5-speed gearbox 4x disc brakes Borrani spoked wheels Engine: V12 engine with four overhead camshafts, 3,929 cm³, 320 hp, max. speed 260 km/h.
