- 1968 Mercedes-Benz 280SL Pagoda 1
The elegant styling and undeniable appeal of the Mercedes-Benz 230 SL “Pagoda” made the German two-seater popular at the time of its first availability in the 1960s. Its long-lasting charm has sustained demand as a coveted collector car since then. The 230 SL debuted in 1963 and would be steadily improved upon, first with the 250 SL in late 1966, with displacement of its inline six-cylinder engine enlarged from 2.3 to 2.5 liters, followed a year later by the final iteration on the W113 chassis, the 280 SL, with displacement further increased to 2.8 liters. Production lasted until 1971 but its appeal with collectors and enthusiasts persists to this day, particularly with beautifully presented examples such as the one offered here. This early Signal Red over black vinyl 280 SL is a US-market car that was equipped new with the coveted optional “Pagoda” hardtop in matching Signal Red. Other factory features include single seats, power steering, a floor-shift automatic transmission, front and rear bumper guards, instrumentation in miles, a driver-side outside mirror, a Becker Europa radio, and whitewall tires. While manual examples are rarer, many collectors, including the consignor, feel that an automatic transmission is more fitting to the nature of the 280 SL. Over the past two decades, this lovely "Pagoda" has remained within the cherished ownership of the same family. While under their care it has been enjoyed on a regular basis and benefited from continual routine maintenance. Additionally, an aftermarket air-conditioning system has been added to improve the car’s specification to its most ideal open-touring configuration. As presented, this 280 SL indicated fewer than 76,000 actual miles at the time of cataloguing. A timeless classic that has only become more desirable as the years have passed, this attractive 280 SL is a delightful and approachable example of this storied model. 1968 Mercedes-Benz 280SL Pagoda RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

- 1971 BMW 3.0 CSL 'Batmobile'
BMW struck a deal with Broadspeed to develop its new 3.0 CS for Group 2 competition, reportedly with a clause stating that the car must lap 2 per cent quicker than Ford’s Capri. Two prototype E9s were duly delivered to the British race team and engineering firm in September 1971. But only one, chassis 2211343 offered here, was transformed into true CSL specification. With input from the Cooper Car Company, the car was stiffened, fitted with lighter aluminum doors, bonnet, plus boot lid, and equipped with gas-filled Bilstein dampers. Ready for winter testing at Paul Ricard, ex-Ford driver John Fitzpatrick—the 1966 British Saloon Car champion—and BMW Works racer Dieter Quester failed to match the times of the Capri so the contract came to a hasty end. Broadspeed continued the project, however, with the car tested at Silverstone by future three-time Formula 1 World Champion Niki Lauda. As written in the July 1972 issue of Motor Sport Magazine, he compared the CSL favorably to his Formula 2 car of the time. Broadspeed entered chassis 2211343 into the April 1972 round of the European Touring Car Championship at a snowy Salzburgring, where Fitpatrick battled through the spray to finish 3rd as the best-ranked BMW. The 3.0 CSL soon returned to the factory in Munich and was painted with the now-iconic BMW Motorsport stripes. It is believed that this car was the first to be finished in the famous livery. Chassis 2211343 was sold in June 1973 to the Vasek Polak team in Hermosa Beach, California to be raced by BMW Service Advisor Bruce Ponder, who notably guided the car to victory at Riverside in 1974. The CSL then moved to Malmoe, Sweden in 1999 and, issued with FIA papers, contested the 2002 Le Mans Classic before being acquired by the Germany-based consignor in 2008. The father of all racing CSLs, chassis 2211343 is an immensely significant piece of BMW motorsport history and accordingly boasts a compelling backstory. 1971 BMW 3.0 CSL 'Batmobile' RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

- 1971 Lotus Europa Twin-Cam
Benefitting from an amazing 12-year £30,000 plus restoration. Launched at the 1967 Brussels Show, the Lotus Type 46 - the Europa - was the marque's first mid-engined road car, and was powered by a Renault 16 engine mounted in an Elan-type backbone frame. Its specification also included all-round independent coil-sprung suspension and disc brakes on the front wheels (subsequently on the rear, too). Unusual styling provided ample luggage space while rearward visibility through the narrow, full-width back window was surprisingly good. Having been manufactured exclusively for export for its first two years, the Europa made its UK debut in 1969 in improved S2 form. Renault-engined like its S1 predecessor, the S2 reverted to a conventional body/chassis attachment, the S1 'shell having been bonded in place - a move that greatly simplified and cheapened accident repairs - while electric windows and adjustable seats were welcome additions to the previously somewhat penny-pinching specification. In the autumn of 1971, the Type 74 Europa Twin Cam was introduced, powered, as its name suggests, by the Ford-based DOHC engine from the Elan. With 105bhp on tap, the Twin Cam was good for 117mph, a figure bettered by the more powerful (126 bhp) 'Big Valve'-engined 'Special' model that superseded it after a year. According to the Lotus Europa Twin Cam Register, Chassis No. 74/1041P was built in the Autumn of 1971 and finally invoiced on 28th October 1971. It's listed as having Engine No.25136, a 4-speed 336-56 gearbox and was originally finished in L14 (Colorado Orange). The stunning little Roman Purple car you see today has come a long way since then. It was subject to a 12-year, thousands of hours, £30,000 plus fastidious body-off restoration which included a rebuilt chassis, new electrics, a new Beige and Oatmeal interior, a fresh suit of clothes in amazing Roman Purple and the big-bore engine was rebuilt and set up by the legendary Richard Winter of Europa Engineering (now 145bhp). We are fortunate to have the full details of this 'labour of love'. The report runs to five pages and is too long to list here, so we encourage interested parties to come and see the history and the car for themselves at the NEC to fully appreciate the effort that has been invested in this fabulous little Europa. Once all finished, the Lotus joined our vendor's significant private Collection of British motor cars a few years ago. In current ownership, it has been maintained to our vendor's high standards by his 'in-house' expert mechanic including a service and a overhaul of the fuel system to ensure the car starts easily and runs sweetly. This immaculate Twin Cam is very sensibly guided when you consider what’s been spent on it, and is a cost-effective entry into the world of 1970s classic sports cars.

- 1964 JAGUAR TYPE E FHC
THE LAST REAL SPORTS JAGUAR? hen Jaguar unveiled its Type E at the Geneva Motor Show in March 1961, it was a complete surprise. Surprise, because no one had had any prior information about the future Grand Touring of the Coventry brand, and also because the Type E line totally captivated the crowds. A William Lyons design, a sporty yet comfortable) chassis and first-class performance were the hallmarks of the new Jaguar Type E. Not to mention the unbeatable price then, since it was three times cheaper than a Ferrari and half as much as a Maserati...Since the end of the war, Jaguar has become the symbol of British Grand Touring. The entire genealogy of XK roadsters (120 to 150) has largely contributed to building this sporting image in addition to the many victories in major competitions. But at the dawn of the 1960s, despite all their qualities, the XKs could not hide their age. So, in secret, Coventry is working on the replacement. On 15 March at the Geneva Motor Show, it is the crowd of journalists in the Parc des Eaux-Vives who can admire a preview of the new Coventry star. Then, it is the great crowd at the Geneva Motor Show. The comments and reactions are ecstatic. Every time an E-Type Jaguar appears in the street, there is a crowd. One the stream of stars and personalities who hastened to take orders for the beautiful English car: Françoise Sagan, Johnny Haliday, Bernard Consten, Charles Trenet, Pierre Bardinon, Robert Hirsch, not to mention the crowned heads. But not content with having a line to cut the blow, the Jaguar E-Type could boast of having a royal chassis for the time... The design of the Jaguar Type E has often been attributed to Sir William Lyons. But as in every automobile genesis, there is a captain at the helm, and a whole team behind him working in his shadow. Malcolm Sayer, an aerodynamicist from the aeronautics industry, assumes the authorship of the pencil stroke. Dressing a very light tubular chassis, our English designer gave the Jaguar Type E an immensely long and flat bonnet which quickly contributed to the magnetism operated on the public. The opening of the bonnet is total with the complete block tilting forward and fully uncovering the mechanics. At the front, a small grille looks like a suggestive half-open mouth, leaving the door open to the most fertile imaginations. Two round headlights are under globes and recessed. The rear is Fastback style with the roof sloping down to the slim taillights. The finish on board does not suffer from criticism, quite the contrary, and a large bootmakes it possible to envisage long journeys. Isn't this precisely the primary vocation of a GT? Jaguar owes so much to the XK engine that we can't talk without recalling its history. When the Jaguar XK120 roadster was presented at Earls Court in 1948, the English motor show, the love at first sight with the public was immediate. Its name "XK 120" comes from its engine and performance. Equipped with the XK engine, this Jaguar-designed in-line six, it gave the Jaguar XK120 Roadster a top speed of... 120 miles per hour! Born in 3.4 litres with its cast iron block and an aluminum cylinder head, its distribution was done by two overhead camshafts. Not bad in 1948 ! For its Jaguar Type E, Coventry equipped it with a rebored version of the XK engine. The in-line 6 now has a displacement of 3.8 litres (87x106 mm) and retains its character of a long-stroke engine. This means more torque from the lowest revs. The power announced by the factory is 265 hp SAE at 5500 rpm and a torque of 35.9 mkg at 5500 rpm. With a top speed of 240 km/h and a 0-100 km/h time of less than 8 seconds many motorists in their 'modern' cars are surprised by the good health of the E-Types. The Jaguar Type E has been the object of the most careful attention for its chassis. Indeed, many solutions have been taken from the competition. Thus, for the new GT of Coventry the chassis engineers (Bob Knight and Norman Dewis) have imagined a cradle independent of the hull. It houses the rear suspension, brakes and differential. It is then attached to the body by V-shaped silent-blocks. This isolates the passenger compartment from any interference from suspension and/or road irregularities. For the front part, it is almost a "copy and paste" of the Type D race structure. Two superimposed triangulated levers, including the lower one which houses the front end of the longitudinal torsion arm.To slow down its sharp-clawed feline, Jaguar adopted the principle of disc brakes successfully inaugurated at the Le Mans 24 Hours in June 1953 with the Jaguar Type C. All four wheels are equipped with them and a separate dual braking system is fitted. With a contained weight of 1,220 kg, the Jaguar Type E boasts a very flattering power-to-weight ratio that allows it to claim the status of a true sports car. The handling is very modern and it is above all the ride comfort that is astonishing. It's easy to see why Jaguar would make a name for itself in the chassis business. In 1962 3500 coupes were produced out of a total production of 7667 coupes in the 3.8L version. This E Type is certainly the most desirable of all. Its line makes it a collector's item of choice, its technical solutions and its genesis still allow it to be a modern car and its engine, which seemed archaic at the time, now stands out thanks to its reliability. Our Jaguar E Type 3,8L Fixed Head Coupé was delivered new in the States in February 1963 to Mr and Mrs Garlock. It stayed there most of its life before reaching the UK where a very ambitious restoration was started. Over 2 years it has been painstakingly prepared to ultimate fast road specifications with a specific attention to period esthetic and improved comfort for rallies and long-distance run. An impressive file of pictures and invoices* describes the great work achieved by some of the best Jaguar specialists such as Guy Broad, Pendine Works, Project shop… The result is a car that would for sure drive you fast to the lawns of a selective concourse where it would be noticed…even driven hard and covered with dead flies. *Sum up of the work achieved Engine Complete strip and rebuild, including acid stripping the block.

- 1972 Lancia Fulvia Sport Zagato
1972 Lancia Fulvia 1,3S Zagato s/n 818.650.001329, engine no. 818*303*090167* Dark Blue with Arancia Interior In today’s market, the phrase “Italian sports car with Zagato coachwork, disc brakes, and twin cam engine” is typically accompanied by deep six-figure price tags. Combine a legacy of innovative technical features and exquisite design and the price climbs further still. Remarkably, the Fulvia Zagato fulfills all the requirements for enjoyable vintage sports car enthusiasts, without requiring a second mortgage. Highly regarded for their exceptional craftsmanship, innovative engineering, and cost-no-object attention to detail Lancia built some of the most elegant, refined, performance cars in their century long history. Given this philosophy, Lancia frequently found themselves making superb cars but not always following with profit. Among the last of the pre-FIAT cars, the unibody front-drive Fulvia was powered by a dual overhead cam narrow angle common-cylinder head V4 engine. Dunlop disc brakes on all four corners, light alloy component construction, and a host of additionally interesting technical features contributed to its success. Road and Track magazine described the car in 1967 as "a precision motorcar, an engineering tour de force." The Fulvia was surprisingly quick for its displacement and proved to be an effective competition car in both rally and circuit racing. The Fulvia was available in a variety of body styles including the rare and special Zagato coupe bodywork, which provided a unique profile and a surprising amount of space for larger drivers and fortunate passengers This particular car is an early Series 2 Fulvia Sport 1.3S Zagato. Coachwork was designed and built by Zagato and fitted to the Lancia unibody platform. The Series 1 bodies featured side hinging hoods and rear drop-down spare tire compartments. During the transition from Series 1 to Series 2 cars, the first 600 of the 2600 Series 2 cars were built utilizing Series 1 bodies. This example is one of the transitional 600 Series 2 cars.

Imported to the US from Italy in 2004, this car resided in California from 2011-2023, including ownership with a well-known Northern California Lancia enthusiast who enjoyably used it as part of his sports car collection of Ferraris and other Lancias. The previous owner serviced the car regularly including installing new front ball joints and tie rod ends, rebuilding the generator, and generally servicing the car while making regular trips to events like the 2016 Monterey Historics, local Sacramento area European car tours, and casual car gatherings. In 2023, the car was sold to the current owner who engaged Maranello MotorWorks, Northglenn, CO to service the car. In April 2023 a comprehensive tune-up was performed including new plugs and correct plug wires, fluids, and two radiator hoses. The rear electric window motor was replaced, new switch relays and wiring installed for more reliable operation, engine electrical wiring tested, select wiring replaced as needed, and both door panels removed to access and improve exterior door lock mechanisms. A new electric fuel pump and vibration isolators were installed along with new fuel hoses and clamps, a new heater cable installed, and a new set of seat belts were installed using structurally suitable mounting points. Further work performed by an independent specialist included replacing the front rubber leaf spring supports using parts purchased from Lancia specialists. Today, the car presents as an attractive driver, with glossy paint and good panel fit. Close inspection reveals some bubbling at the bottom of the right front fender and the paint displays some chips, scratches, and various other imperfections, but the overall presentation is very attractive. The chrome and various trim are all in good to very good condition, particularly the hard-to-find grille and chrome plated headlight bezels. The lenses, glass, and delicate Fulvia Sport hood script announce the Italian heritage and design excellence, while Zagato badges flank both front fenders. The desirable 5.5” Cromodora wheels are in excellent shape and add a period correct performance stance to the car, giving it just the right amount of rake. The color-contrasting interior is excellent overall. The clean black vinyl and wood dashboard are handsomely finished. The low-profile bucket seats are in excellent condition with good side bolsters and lower seat support. A small 1/8” hole is noted on the driver’s seat bottom bolster. The door panels, headliner, and wood dash trim are in very good condition. A properly housed clock and rare radio delete plate with Fulvia script finish the dashboard. The gauges and controls feature nice color and contrast, and excellent trim. The correct ribbed and fitted rubber floor mats are similarly nice as is the leather wrapped Lancia steering wheel. Lifting the rear hatch, the rear storage area is finished and trimmed with appropriate materials. Further, the rear hatch can be electronically raised and lowered from a dash switch, allowing cabin ventilation, a quintessentially Lancia feature that is both functional and clever. The engine compartment is honest and tidy, with generally correct finishes, original components, and properly sorted hardware. The engine is a correct type 303 1.3 series engine, although it is a later serial number than is generally associated with early S2 cars. The engine compartment appears largely original with correct presentation and good detailing. The engine is fitted with a correct set of Solex carburetors with an original air cleaner housing. The car runs and drives well, starting easily and revving freely. The dogleg 5-speed gearbox has good synchromesh and moves smoothly through all gears. The chassis has a coherent and comfortable feel, perfectly suited for mountain roads and spirited driving. The Fulvia is known for light and communicative steering, delivering precise and responsive results – certainly one of the top characteristics of this model.

- 1961 Maserati 3500GT Vignale Spyder
The late 1950s were a halcyon period for Grand Touring cars and few were more stylish than the Maserati 3500GT Vignale Spyder. This particular example – chassis number AM101.1297 – is one of only five right-hand-drive cars built and was completed on 23 May 1961. The Maserati is thought to have been sold new via Arturo Tuena in Genoa to an Englishman who was living in Italy – hence the right-hand-drive configuration. Finished in Acciaio Brunito with a black interior, it originally wore steel wheels but they were later replaced with the optional Borrani wires. As a relatively early example of the 3500GT Spyder, it featured the four-speed gearbox. Not until later in the production run did Maserati fit a five-speed unit. The car was in the UK by 1969, when it was acquired by Stuart Cawley, who had seen it advertised for sale in Motor Sport magazine. It had been repainted Cream but was still on Milanese registration plates, and having bought it for £1200 – against which he part-exchanged his Mercedes-Benz 190SL – Cawley drove it from London back home to Scotland. Having used the Maserati for a couple of years, he drove it down to Italy in 1971 so that the engine could receive some remedial work at Autocorse – as recommended by the factory. Having not been entirely happy with the results, he returned in 1972 so that a more comprehensive rebuild of the straight-six could be carried out. Cawley moved to Hertfordshire in 1975 and got to know marque specialist Bill McGrath. When Cawley later retired, he went to work for McGrath part-time, and in return Bill stored the 3500GT Vignale Spyder free of charge. Having not had much use out of the car in the later years of his ownership, Cawley eventually decided to sell it in 2000 to Patrick Martin, who he knew as a customer of McGrath. Martin had it mechanically recommissioned and in 2004 used it for the Maserati 90th anniversary celebrations in Italy. The following year, he sold the car to Edwin Faulkner, who commissioned a bodywork restoration by Jim Henshaw, during which it was resprayed in the Maserati shade of Avorio. A retrim was also carried out. Faulkner kept the Vignale Spyder on the Isle of Man and, as part of the registration process there, had to replace the original kilometres-per-hour speedometer with a miles-per-hour version. He sold it in 2010 to a UK-based owner who had it returned to its original colour of Acciaio Brunito by respected restoration firm Moto Technique. Three years later it passed to another UK enthusiast, and in 2014 it was used on the Maserati Club Scottish Tour as well as the Goodwood Road Racing Club’s Corsica and Sardinia Tour. The Maserati was displayed at concours events and was runner-up in the Club Trophy at the 2016 Concours of Elegance at Windsor Castle. It was also part of the Earls Court display at the 2014 Goodwood Revival, and was first in class and overall winner at the 2016 Maserati Club Concours. Now being offered for sale at The Classic Motor Hub in exceptional condition, this well-known and supremely stylish Maserati 3500GT Vignale Spyder has been maintained with no expense spared in recent years. In February 2022, its gearbox and steering box were rebuilt by McGrath and it benefits from electric power-steering. It also comes with a consignment of spares that includes five road wheels, a pair of front brake discs and a steering column, plus an original copy of the driver’s manual. MODEL HISTORY Maserati had achieved great motorsport success during the 1950s, but despite taking Juan Manuel Fangio to his fifth and final Formula 1 World Championship in 1957, it announced its withdrawal from racing that year. The Italian company was in financial trouble and until that point it had built production road cars in only very small numbers. That changed in 1957 with the introduction of the 3500GT, which drew on Maserati’s racing experience but would be produced in far greater quantities than previous road cars. Originally launched as a 2+2 coupé, the 3500GT featured bodywork by Touring that was mounted on a tubular chassis. Beneath the bonnet was a 3485cc straight-six that was closely related to the marque’s competition engines and featured twin overhead camshafts, twin-plug ignition and a trio of twin-choke Webers. Following the success of the coupé, Touring and Frua both built prototypes for a keenly anticipated Spyder variant, but in the end Maserati commissioned a design of timeless elegance that had been created by Giovanni Michelotti for Vignale. When it was introduced in 1959, the 3500GT Vignale Spyder featured drum brakes all round – those at the front were soon replaced by discs – while suspension was via wishbones and coil springs at the front, with semi-elliptic leaf springs at the rear. The wheelbase was slightly shorter than on the coupé, at 2500mm rather than 2600mm. Upgrades applied during its production run included a five-speed gearbox in place of the previous four-speeder, all-round disc brakes from 1962, and the development of the 3500GTI. Having been fitted with Lucas fuel-injection, the power output for this model was boosted to 235bhp – the carburettor-fed model gave in the region of 220bhp. In total, 245 Vignale Spyders were built between 1959 and 1964. When Road & Track magazine tested a 3500GT Spyder, it compared it favourably to the Ferrari 250 GT. With a top speed approaching 140mph, it certainly had the performance to go with its good looks, and it was little wonder that the Maserati became the Grand Tourer of choice for captains of industry and glamorous socialites alike. 1961 Maserati 3500GT Vignale Spyder The Classic Motor Hub If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

It was also part of the Earls Court display at the 2014 Goodwood Revival, and was first in class and overall winner at the 2016 Maserati Club Concours. Now being offered for sale at The Classic Motor Hub in exceptional condition, this well-known and supremely stylish Maserati 3500GT Vignale Spyder has been maintained with no expense spared in recent years. In February 2022, its gearbox and steering box were rebuilt by McGrath and it benefits from electric power-steering. It also comes with a consignment of spares that includes five road wheels, a pair of front brake discs and a steering column, plus an original copy of the driver’s manual. MODEL HISTORY Maserati had achieved great motorsport success during the 1950s, but despite taking Juan Manuel Fangio to his fifth and final Formula 1 World Championship in 1957, it announced its withdrawal from racing that year. The Italian company was in financial trouble and until that point it had built production road cars in only very small numbers. That changed in 1957 with the introduction of the 3500GT, which drew on Maserati’s racing experience but would be produced in far greater quantities than previous road cars. Originally launched as a 2+2 coupé, the 3500GT featured bodywork by Touring that was mounted on a tubular chassis. Beneath the bonnet was a 3485cc straight-six that was closely related to the marque’s competition engines and featured twin overhead camshafts, twin-plug ignition and a trio of twin-choke Webers. Following the success of the coupé, Touring and Frua both built prototypes for a keenly anticipated Spyder variant, but in the end Maserati commissioned a design of timeless elegance that had been created by Giovanni Michelotti for Vignale. When it was introduced in 1959, the 3500GT Vignale Spyder featured drum brakes all round – those at the front were soon replaced by discs – while suspension was via wishbones and coil springs at the front, with semi-elliptic leaf springs at the rear. The wheelbase was slightly shorter than on the coupé, at 2500mm rather than 2600mm. Upgrades applied during its production run included a five-speed gearbox in place of the previous four-speeder, all-round disc brakes from 1962, and the development of the 3500GTI. Having been fitted with Lucas fuel-injection, the power output for this model was boosted to 235bhp – the carburettor-fed model gave in the region of 220bhp. In total, 245 Vignale Spyders were built between 1959 and 1964. When Road & Track magazine tested a 3500GT Spyder, it compared it favourably to the Ferrari 250 GT. With a top speed approaching 140mph, it certainly had the performance to go with its good looks, and it was little wonder that the Maserati became the Grand Tourer of choice for captains of industry and glamorous socialites alike.

- 1969 Lamborghini Islero
The Lamborghini Islero was presented for the first time in 1968 at the Geneva Motor Show. It replaced the 400GT and bore fresh, deliberately discrete and stylish coachwork imagined by Carrozzeria Marazzi. As Ferruccio Lamborghini liked to say, a car for the tycoon, not for the playboy. One famously starred in the Roger Moore film, “The man who haunted himself”. The new Islero was a gentleman’s GT that perfectly suited il Cavaliere’s tastes. After 125 Isleros were produced, an upgraded S version was launched in 1969. Outwardly similar, it had a redesigned interior, further developed suspension and a high-compression engine with Miura S calms now producing 350 HP. One hundred Islero S were sold in total, which brings the total production run of the Lamborghini Islero to 225 examples. Body number “6300” was delivered by Carrozzeria Marazzi to Lamborghini on 19 September 1968. And the car was completed on 27 February 1969. It was finished in Bronzo Chiaro (light bronze) with a Senape (mustard) interior. Factory records show that the first owner of this Islero was Edmondo Lamborghini in person (Ferruccio’s brother). As it was common practice at the time for VIP clients, a special V12 engine was fitted to chassis number “6300”. That engine was quite possibly a prototype of the new “S” engine, showing on the copy of the build sheet a torque of 45,4 kg mt at 5500 rpm. The Belgian “Identification du véhicule” dated 26/8/1987, states that the date of its first registration was 31/03/1969. The immediate history following Edmondo’s ownership is unknown, but we know that the vehicle was owned for at least 15 years by a Belgian collector who sold it to a Swiss enthusiast in March 2009. The sale is verified by an export certificate dated 30/03/2009. The Swiss owner decided to restore the Islero to “haute horlogerie” standards. Principally working with “Garage Burnier”, he embarked on a bare-metal repaint – with other associated mechanical work – choosing to retain the attractive metallic bottle green paint the car had worn for many years. The restoration took a long time to ensure the highest standards of presentation. For example, even the correct Ansa exhaust stickers were flown in from the UK. Various invoices and other paperwork included in the history file accompanying the car state a mileage at this time of approximately 65,000 Km. From 2011 to 2013, the restored Islero participated to various European car events such as the 2011 Landeron Classic where it won “Meilleur ensemble” price, the 2013 Schloss Bensberg Classic Concours d’Elegance, the 2012 Milano Autoclassica, where it was presented on the Marazzi stand. Mario Marazzi signed the car and was pictured in front of it. In 2013, chassis 6300 took part in the Lamborghini 50 Grande Giro and won the 2nd place at the Concours d’Elegance. Later that year, it returned to Garage Burnier for further works totalling some CHF 35000. By the time the Swiss owner decided to sell the Islero in July 2014, he had spent more than CHF 100000 on its restoration. Kidston SA sourced the car immediately for a world-class Lamborghini collection. In 2017, the car was bought by a fine collector and imported with all local taxes paid to Belgium, where it has been last registered. Between 2017 and 2021, a long list of maintenance works including engine, gearbox and dashboard dismantling as well as an extensive mechanical revision have been done by “L’Officina”. For an amount exceeding EUR 100000, the chassis 6300 was again completely repainted in its beautiful metallic green color, resulting in the concours state in which it is today. Little-used (400Km since restoration) but carefully maintained, this vehicle can be considered one of the best documented and most celebrated of all surviving Isleros, still fitted with its original high compression engine. Known as Ferruccio’s favourite model, here is a very rare opportunity to acquire a genuine “Lamborghini family car”. For any further information, please contact us or make an appointment.

- 1958 Jaguar XK 150
The Jaguar XK 150 is the ultimate expression of Jaguar’s fabulous ‘XK’ series of sports cars. Its production started in the spring of 1957. At the beginning, the XK150 was only available in fixed and drophead coupé forms, the open roadster version not appearing until the following year. This particular example of the Open Two Seater was built in 1958 in the most sought-after “S” version with a 3.4 L engine producing 250 bhp and offering a significant performance advantage over the base model. Note that only 846 XK150S Left Hand Drive examples were built and that most of them were aimed for the US market. The Jaguar Heritage Certificate of the chassis number T 831869 DN shows that this car was originally delivered by Belgian Motor Company in Brussels with the interesting option of a manual gearbox with overdrive. It was featured in the elegant “carmen red” with black leather interior and an assorted black hood. Today, the car is still full matching numbers. The current owner has meticulously maintained the vehicle during the last 10 years. The engine has been carefully revised in 2018 by a Jaguar specialist in Belgium, ensuring optimal performance and reliability. All invoices are available on request. Thanks to the fact that it is fitted with an overdrive, this XK150S is very usable on any country road for holiday trips or oldtimer rallyes. It drives well and is equipped with a useful tripmaster. The car comes with a Jaguar tarpaulin and a hood cover. 1958 Jaguar XK 150 AD Sportscars If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

- 1991-lamborghini-diablo-2
As the signature straight-line slash in the rear wheel arch design signaled, the breathtaking styling of the Diablo was the work of the great Marcello Gandini. The model, which followed in the footsteps of the Miura and Countach as the third mid-engined V-12 offering from Lamborghini, was to be the marque’s bedroom wall poster star of the 1990s. Offered here is the 362nd out of 401 original-specification Diablos built during 1991. Fewer than 900 first-generation cars were produced in total between 1990 and 1998. This example notably features the distinctive “cliff” instrument binnacle and does without power steering. Naturally, the unfiltered driving experience is dominated by the 5.7-liter V-12 engine that delivers 485 horsepower to the rear wheels via a dogleg, five-speed manual transmission for a claimed top speed of a mighty 202 mph. Delivered new to Auto Palace of Pittsburgh finished in the color combination of Black over a Champagne leather interior, this Lamborghini was first registered in Pennsylvania on 7 January 1992. Remarkably, the car was retained by its original owner for 25 years before his passing. The Diablo was then sold in July 2017 before finding a new custodian in late 2018. In May of the following year, the Lamborghini was treated to an extensive service by DriverSource of Houston. The accompanying invoice (available to view on file) documents the fitment of new door struts, a rebuild of the alternator, an oil and filter change, a refresh of the air-conditioning system, a replacement head gasket, plus the installation of a rear wing as part of the work that totaled $18,788. Please note, with the car recorded at the time as showing 12,859 kilometers (~7,991 miles), the drive gear in the odometer was replaced. The Diablo was then acquired in January 2021 by the European consignor, a prolific car collector. Under their care, the Lamborghini was taken to marque specialist Auto Kremer of Bonn, Germany, for a complete restoration. Invoices from 2023 detail a gearbox and engine-out service, the fitment of a new clutch, and an overhaul of the electrical system at a cost of €31,221, or over $32,500. Auto Kremer noted the Diablo with 13,121 kilometers (~8,154 miles). The color has also been changed to the current shade of SE30 Viola, as famously worn by the limited-edition Diablo SE30 anniversary special. Now displaying 13,302 kilometers (~8,266 miles) at the time of cataloguing, and accompanied by a tool roll, assorted spare bulbs and fuses, plus a tire inflator kit, this fantastically flamboyant Lamborghini remains a true showstopper more than three decades after first hitting the road. Offering the Diablo in its earliest and purest form, this car is sure to be coveted by supercar collectors. 1991 Lamborghini Diablo 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 As the signature straight-line slash in the rear wheel arch design signaled, the breathtaking styling of the Diablo was the work of the great Marcello Gandini. The model, which followed in the footsteps of the Miura and Countach as the third mid-engined V-12 offering from Lamborghini, was to be the marque’s bedroom wall poster star of the 1990s. Offered here is the 362nd out of 401 original-specification Diablos built during 1991. Fewer than 900 first-generation cars were produced in total between 1990 and 1998. This example notably features the distinctive “cliff” instrument binnacle and does without power steering. Naturally, the unfiltered driving experience is dominated by the 5.7-liter V-12 engine that delivers 485 horsepower to the rear wheels via a dogleg, five-speed manual transmission for a claimed top speed of a mighty 202 mph. Delivered new to Auto Palace of Pittsburgh finished in the color combination of Black over a Champagne leather interior, this Lamborghini was first registered in Pennsylvania on 7 January 1992. Remarkably, the car was retained by its original owner for 25 years before his passing. The Diablo was then sold in July 2017 before finding a new custodian in late 2018. In May of the following year, the Lamborghini was treated to an extensive service by DriverSource of Houston. The accompanying invoice (available to view on file) documents the fitment of new door struts, a rebuild of the alternator, an oil and filter change, a refresh of the air-conditioning system, a replacement head gasket, plus the installation of a rear wing as part of the work that totaled $18,788. Please note, with the car recorded at the time as showing 12,859 kilometers (~7,991 miles), the drive gear in the odometer was replaced. The Diablo was then acquired in January 2021 by the European consignor, a prolific car collector. Under their care, the Lamborghini was taken to marque specialist Auto Kremer of Bonn, Germany, for a complete restoration. Invoices from 2023 detail a gearbox and engine-out service, the fitment of a new clutch, and an overhaul of the electrical system at a cost of €31,221, or over $32,500. Auto Kremer noted the Diablo with 13,121 kilometers (~8,154 miles). The color has also been changed to the current shade of SE30 Viola, as famously worn by the limited-edition Diablo SE30 anniversary special. Now displaying 13,302 kilometers (~8,266 miles) at the time of cataloguing, and accompanied by a tool roll, assorted spare bulbs and fuses, plus a tire inflator kit, this fantastically flamboyant Lamborghini remains a true showstopper more than three decades after first hitting the road. Offering the Diablo in its earliest and purest form, this car is sure to be coveted by supercar collectors.
