- 1987-aston-martin-vantage-volante
Open-top Aston Martin driving enthusiasts had to be patient for several years after the last DB6 Volante left Newport Pagnell in 1970. With the company’s financial situation often less than stable and increasingly strict US safety regulations, it seemed for a long time that Aston Martin would never offer a convertible – or “Volante” in Aston-speak – version of the V8 Saloon. However, in 1978, North American buyers finally got what they had been waiting for: the Series 1 V8 Volante. Demand across the pond was so strong that deliveries to the UK and Europe only began in 1979. These V8 Volantes came with a 300 bhp engine and shared their development path with the V8 Saloon. From 1986 onwards, Series 2 models featured fuel injection. At the same time, Aston Martin offered the V8 Vantage Volante in Europe – equipped with a carburetted engine producing over 400 bhp. With their “wide-boy” running boards, prominent rear spoilers, and flared wheel arches borrowed from the saloon, these were true statement cars – perfectly in tune with the Big Bang era in the City of London, while Wham!, Bananarama, and Robert Palmer topped the charts. This particular Vantage Volante has had a remarkable journey! It’s an original 1987 Vantage Volante that was driven in the US until 1992, after which it was brought to Europe by a German enthusiast. The car was then returned to Aston Martin Lagonda Ltd. in the UK, where it was converted to full European specification. During this process, it was fitted with the European-spec Vantage engine producing 400 bhp, along with a 5-speed manual gearbox, high-performance handling kit, and large-bore exhaust system – all completed with the utmost care and attention to detail. Every component of the work has been meticulously documented and is available for review. In 1994, the car was sold by none other than Nicholas Mee to its current owner – who has cherished it for over 30 years. In late 2024, the entire drivetrain and mechanicals were comprehensively overhauled by a renowned Aston Martin specialist in the Netherlands. This recent work ensures an unparalleled driving experience. Now available immediately as one of the Coolest Classics at our Clubhouse in Naarden. 1987 Aston Martin Vantage Volante Cool Classic Club If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

- 1973-ferrari-dino-246-gts-5
“Chairs and Flares” optioned Dino - Leather Daytona-style seats and steel fender flares - believed to be less than 150 examples with specification Ferrari Classiche Red Book - Matching numbers Documented by noted Ferrari historian Marcel Massini Exceptional concours-level restoration completed in 2018 Spec’ in Giallo Fly yellow with Beige Connolly leather interior Optioned with Campagnolo alloy wheels, air conditioning, and power windows This 1973 Dino 246 GTS was built on October 2nd, 1973 in Maranello, Italy. The car was spec’d in Giallo Fly Yellow over a Beige Connolly leather interior. Bound for the U.S., it was optioned with the rare “Chairs and Flares” package which consisted of leather Daytona-style seats and steel fender arches, air conditioning, power windows, Campagnolo alloy wheels, and instruments in miles. The GTS model had a removable roof panel, allowing for taller drivers to have extra space as in the coupe was more of a tight fit. It was delivered to Chinetti-Garthwaite Imports in Paoli, PA in the United States in November of 1973, with the first registered owner noted as William A. Brack of PA. Brack went on to own the Dino 246 GTS for close to 14 years, noted in the Marcel Massini report, then being advertised for sale in November of 1987 in Los Angeles, California. Between 1987 and 2016 several caretakers enjoyed the Dino thoroughly, and in late 2010 a complete Ferrari Classiche report was ordered for the Dino. The car's Ferrari Classiche, the Ferrari factory’s version of a certification of authenticity report, confirmed that the car was indeed matching numbers and had its original equipment and options. In 2016 the Dino was chosen to have a no-expense-spared concours-level restoration, which spanned over 2 years to complete. The GTS was completely disassembled down to its last component, and put onto a restoration rotisserie to ensure every square inch of the car could be inspected. The original steel body was brought down to bare metal, and resprayed with factory-correct Giallo Fly yellow paint. The interior was reupholstered, down to the carpets, door cards, dashboard, and full leather Daytona-style seats. The engine was removed and completely rebuilt, ensuring the 2.4L 65° V6 engine produced its full 175 horsepower. Correct tires were installed, linkages were tightened, suspension components were restored, bushings replaced, and anything and everything else was also restored, making this car a perfect 100-point Dino. After completing its restoration at the end of 2018, the Dino 246 GTS was enjoyed by several caretakers before arriving at Canepa. Upon initial inspection, the Dino looked like a car that would be a serious contender on the concours lawn. Not wasting any time, the GTS was put through the “Canepa Difference” process, ensuring that all mechanical systems were in optimal and peak operating condition, and that the cosmetic finishes were concourse level. A multi-stage foam-pad polish was employed on the period-correct Giallo Fly yellow paint, enhancing the luster of the rich and deep color. The “Chairs and Flares” specification makes this example extremely desirable, only adding to the Italian flair of the car along with the alloy Campagnolo wheels. The interior was marked as excellent condition, with the standout being the Daytona-style seats. Mechanically in excellent condition, the 2.4L engine designed by Dino Ferrari himself started up without hesitation, with its signature low guttural exhaust note filling your ears, and driving as well as it sounds. The 1973 Dino 246 GTS E Series is a unique piece of Ferrari’s history. Not only is it Ferrari’s starting line of entering into the mid-engine market, but honoring Enzo Ferrari’s late son with a car that handled, performed, and looked the part that made his name proud to be worn on each example. Now ready for its next caretaker, fully restored and ready to be shown at any concourse or taking long scenic drives, this 246 GTS will not disappoint. Enzo Ferrari, and the creation of the Dino Enzo Ferrari, after years of podium finishes with his “junior” engines, longed for a road going production car that could directly rival Porsche. Determined to bring this vision to life, he tasked his development team with designing an all-new car from the ground up, guided by the principles championed by his beloved son, Dino. Before his untimely passing in 1956, Dino played a key role in developing a dual-overhead camshaft V-6 engine for both road and racing applications. Ferrari first introduced this engine in 1967, installing it in a new model unveiled at the Turin Motor Show. Named in honor of Enzo’s late son, the Dino 206 GT proved that Ferrari could challenge Porsche by offering a sports car at a more accessible price point—without compromising on Italian style, flair, or drama. The result was a mid-engine, V-6-powered masterpiece, with “Dino” proudly cast into each camshaft cover. As a tribute to his son, Enzo chose to forgo the iconic Ferrari prancing horse on the nose, instead adorning the car with Dino’s own signature. The Dino 206 GT debuted in 1967, featuring a sleek body designed by Leonardo Fioravanti of Pininfarina and built by Scaglietti. Power came from a 2.0-liter, all-aluminum, double-overhead-camshaft V-6 paired with a five-speed transaxle. After producing 154 examples of the Dino 206 GT, Ferrari launched the Dino 246 GT and GTS in 1969. Now equipped with a larger 2.4-liter V-6, the updated model delivered 15 more horsepower than its predecessor and was noticeably quicker, sprinting to 60 mph in just over eight seconds. With its mid-mounted engine, the 246 GT achieved near-perfect weight distribution, enhancing its handling precision. From 1971 to 1974, Ferrari produced the final version of the Dino, known as the “E Series.” These models featured dual Weber DCNF7 carburetors, boosting the top speed to 149 mph. Inside, updates included a revised dashboard with space for a radio and sliding heater controls, adding a touch of refinement to the Dino’s driver-focused cockpit. 1973 Ferrari Dino 246 GTS Canepa If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

The Renault 5 Turbo Group 4 Factory Car The Renault 5 Turbo was born from the vision of Jean Terramorsi, Deputy Director of Product Planning at Renault, in charge of limited production models, who as early as 1977 imagined a sporting development of the Régie’s star model: the Renault 5. This was no longer simply about improving handling or engine power, as had been done with the R5 Alpine. Terramorsi believed it necessary to turn it into a true rally car, incorporating Renault’s flagship technology: turbocharging. As early as 1972, Bernard Dudot, an engineer at Alpine in Dieppe, had paved the way by installing a turbocharger on a 1600cc engine intended for a very light Group 5 berlinette. Although difficult to master, the result proved formidable in the hands of a driver such as Jean-Luc Thérier, foreshadowing what the Renault 5 Turbo would become. Mid-mounted turbocharged engine, reinforced chassis, specific suspension components, bodywork combining steel, polyester and aluminum, dramatically widened rear track: the Renault 5 Turbo presented in 1978 left no one indifferent. Development and Competition Entry In 1979, the small Renault Sport team, driven by François Bernard (chassis engineer) and Michel Têtu, still only had the Group 5 prototype at its disposal — the famous black R5 — an assembly of specific Renault and Alpine components. It would take the production of the 400 units required for Group 4 homologation, obtained in September 1980, to allow the car to compete in major international events. The Group 4 version produced approximately 260 horsepower and was distinguished by a driving behavior particularly appreciated by drivers. It is often considered more usable than some later evolutions, notably the Tour de Corse version, regarded as more demanding. Jean Ragnotti Jean Ragnotti shares with Henri Pescarolo the enviable status of being one of the most popular French racing drivers. Winner of the Tour de Corse, the Monte Carlo Rally, French Superproduction Champion, he also distinguished himself at the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Beyond his achievements, it is his spectacular driving style and his personality — marked by simplicity, warmth, and passion — that have left a lasting impression. The 1982 Ivory Coast Rally Ragnotti’s 1982 program in the R5 Turbo Group 4 remained relatively focused: Critérium Alpin, Tour de Corse, and the Ivory Coast Rally, also known as the Bandama Rally. Following a victory at the Tour de Corse and a third place at the Critérium Alpin, Renault entered two R5 Turbos in this legendary World Championship event. It was a first for the R5 Turbo on African terrain. Preparation was extensive: long reconnaissance sessions, suspension adaptations, structural reinforcement, and he installation of underbody protection. The entered car, registered 80 VS 91, chassis number VF1822000C0000009, was first registered on April 8, 1982, likely very shortly before the event. Assigned to the Ragnotti / Andrié crew, it immediately proved competitive against top-level opponents, including Michèle Mouton. But this rally would also remain one of the most demanding, both sportingly and humanly. The rivalry between Michèle Mouton and Walter Röhrl reached its peak. Röhrl declared to the German press: “The Audi Quattro is so superior that even a monkey behind the wheel could win rallies.” To which Michèle Mouton replied ironically: “Walter is a good driver… but the man…” At the same time, the French driver was going through a dramatic personal ordeal: she learned of her father’s death during the rally, yet chose to continue competing. In this particularly tense context, Ragnotti delivered an outstanding start to the event. But the Bandama forgives nothing. Following a mechanical issue, a poorly anticipated pace note caused an off-road excursion. The car took off over a bump before landing heavily. Broken steering, damaged aluminum roof: retirement was inevitable. Post-Race and Restoration The car was repatriated to France and retained by Renault Sport. In 1984, it was gifted to Jean Ragnotti by Patrick Landon. It was then entrusted to the Bozian brothers, historic Renault Sport preparers. After remaining in their workshops for many years, it was finally restored in the 1990s: mechanical rebuild by the Bozian brothers body repaired by Daniel Loison paintwork by Del Fiacco parts supplied by Renault Sport restoration to Bandama configuration Original elements, including rally plates and crew documents, were preserved. The car was presented to Jean Ragnotti in 1995, on the occasion of his 50th birthday, during a dinner at Paul Bocuse. Identity and Chassis Number After its accident, the original registration (VF1822000C0000009) was reused by Renault Sport on another car. When handed over to Jean Ragnotti, the car received a new identity: chassis number: B0000081 first registration: February 1981 registration number: 4534 VD 91 No R5 Turbo ever competed under this identity. As was often the case with factory cars, the competition department had fewer registration documents than vehicles, these being transferred as needed. It is therefore essential to clarify that, despite this administrative particularity, the car’s historical continuity remains fully established. Technical Description This factory Group 4 R5 Turbo features numerous specific elements: Chausson air/water intercooler modified sensor plate from Porsche 928 specific turbocharger without conventional wastegate side exhaust outlet high-capacity alternator dry sump lubrication with external oil tank dual master cylinder competition pedal box adjustable De Carbon dampers Renault Sport engine no. 2672 Matter reinforced chassis Conclusion As Gilles Vallerian rightly points out: “With factory competition cars, it is always difficult to attribute with certainty the races contested and the results for each individual car. Indeed, official race cars often do not have a stamped chassis number, which is the case here. It was common for racing departments, little concerned with the administrative ‘road’ aspect of factory cars, to have fewer registration documents than vehicles! This was confirmed by Patrick Landon. A registration document would be used on one car, then after an accident or wear from racing, it would be transferred to a new chassis supplied by Matter, and so on… It is very difficult to be certain about the actual participation of a race car in a specific event. This is not the case with this R5 Turbo, which has a unique and particular history. This Renault 5 Turbo Group 4, ex 80 VS 91, is unquestionably the one that competed in the 1982 Bandama Rally: its historical continuity is certain. It retained its livery until restoration, and notably features a specific mounting of the front and rear bumpers — extended at the front and set back at the rear — to provide more space for long-travel gravel wheels. This unique configuration is clearly visible in period films and photographs of the Ivory Coast Rally. It is exceptional to have an authentic factory rally car that belonged to one of its drivers, particularly one so emblematic of the Renault Sport adventure: this is the case with this Group 4 R5 Turbo entered in a World Championship event by one of the most popular French drivers, Jean Ragnotti. It has also undergone restoration by Renault Sport’s in-house engine specialists, the Bozian brothers.” A genuine factory-built Group 4 example, this Renault 5 Turbo originates directly from Renault Sport’s competition department and retains the defining characteristics of a works rally car of the period. Its specification includes a Renault Sport engine developing approximately 260–270 horsepower, dry-sump lubrication system, Chausson air-to-water intercooler, specific turbocharger configuration, adjustable De Carbon suspension, and a reinforced Matter chassis. Following its return from the Bandama, the car was retained by Renault Sport before being gifted in 1984 to Jean Ragnotti by Patrick Landon, then head of the rally program. Subsequently restored by the Bozian brothers—long-standing Renault competition partners—it was returned to a configuration faithful to its period appearance. Preserved for many years by Ragnotti himself and later by a private collector, it remains today in the hands of its third owner of the past decade. Nowdays maintained by Michel CRESPEL it is combining direct works origin, period competition history, and documented provenance, it represents a rare and highly compelling example of Renault’s official rallying heritage. 1982 Renault 5 Turbo Group 4 Historic Cars If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

Years later the long-term owner changed the colors to classic red over tan and accumulated 48,704 miles before being tucked away in dry storage in a discreet garage near the heart of Phoenix, AZ. Upon close inspection the Dino is complete and retains its original numbers matching engine and transmission. Additionally the Scaglietti body number “731” is found stamped on both trunk hinges, door jamb plates, and coolant reservoir mounting tab.

- 1974 Alfa Romeo Montreal 1
The Alfa Romeo Montreal was introduced as a concept car in 1967 at Expo 67, held in Montreal, Canada. Originally, the concept cars were displayed without any model name, but the public took to calling it The Montreal.It was a 2+2 coupe using the 1.6-litre engine of the Alfa Romeo Giulia Ti and the short wheelbase chassis of the Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint GT, with a body designed by Marcello Gandini at Bertone. One of the two concept cars built for Expo 67 is displayed in the Alfa Romeo Museum in Arese, while the other is in museum storage. The first production car, Tipo 105.64, was shown at the 1970 Geneva Motor Show and was quite different from the original, using a 2593 cc 90° dry-sump lubricated, cross-plane V8 engine with a bore of 80.0 mm and a stroke of only 64.5 mm and using Spica pump that produced around 200 PS (147 kW; 197 hp), coupled to a five-speed ZF gearbox and a limited-slip differential. This engine was derived from the 2-litre V8 used in the 33 Stradale and in the Tipo 33 sports prototype racer. The chassis and running gear of the production Montreal were taken from the Giulia GTV coupé and comprised double wishbone suspension with coil springs and dampers at the front and a axle with LSD at the rear. Since the concept car was already unofficially known as The Montreal, Alfa Romeo kept the model name in production. Stylistically, the most eye catching feature is the car's front end with four headlamps partly covered by unusual "grilles", that retract when the lights are switched on. Another stylistic element is the NACA duct on the bonnet. The duct is actually blocked off since its purpose is not to draw air into the engine, but to optically hide the power bulge. The slats behind the doors contain the cabin vents, but apart from that only serve cosmetic purposes. Paolo Martin is credited for the prototype instrument cluster. Production was split between the Alfa Romeo plant in Arese and Carrozzeria Bertone's plants in Caselle and Grugliasco outside Turin.Alfa Romeo produced the chassis and engine and mechanicals and sent the chassis to Caselle where Bertone fitted the body. After body fitment, the car was sent to Grugliasco to be degreased, partly zinc coated, manually spray painted and have the interior fitted. Finally, the car was returned to Arese to have the engine and mechanicals installed. It is worth noting that because of this production method, there is not necessarily a correspondance between chassis number, engine number and production date. Total production was around 3,900. A Montreal can be seen in the 1974 movie The Marseille contract where Michael Caine drives a metallic dark brown example. A careful observer can find a red Montreal in the beginning of the James Cameron movie True Lies immediately prior to the lead character saying "Here is my invitation." A Montreal is also featured in the 2017 movie Atomic Blonde. According to Alfa Romeo Storico, our car, AR 1428308, left the Factory in September 1974, with one of the best combo, Blu Francia body with blu interior. The car spent all its life in Iran, with only two owners and due to the nice and dry Iranian climate, the car never suffered from any corrosion, or any damage. The car was found in lovely unrestored condition and showing just over 58.000 km on the tachy, all the panels are completely original and correctly aligned, only the body was re-painted in the late 90’s in Metallic Grey. The bodywork is totaly rust free, the car has always been well preserved. All the rare Montreal specific units, chrome, badges and stainless steel finishers are original, and the car will come with all its original Alfa Romeo documents, Uso e manutenzione, Alfa Romeo folder… Its original factory 00564*02243 engine with Spica pump and dual ignition is still in place, waiting to shout again. The car is currently under a complete body and mechanical restoration to recover its original shine and beautiful Blu Francia body color. A unique opportunity to buy a delicious « Gran Turismo » Alfa car, with a magic dry-sump 2,6l 90 degrees Alfa V8 born for racing with the mythic 33 race car… 1974 Alfa Romeo Montreal ARNAGE Classic Car Consulting If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

- 1968 Mercedes-Benu 280SL
European Specification 2.8-liter inline six -- 170 HP Rare 4-speed manual transmission In its original color combo, Blue with Bamboo Leather Complete rotisserie restoration by Coachworks/Rudi & Company Hardtop, spare wheel/tire, toolkit, manuals, and extensive documentation Mercedes-Benz introduced the 230SL, a brand-new roadster that would eventually replace the 190SL and 300SL, in the spring of 1963. The 230SL "Pagoda" was an exquisite two-seat convertible with sharp lines and upright headlights that was developed by Paul Bracq and adhered to Mercedes' new design philosophy. The 230SL was given a large three-pointed star in its grill as a nod to the 300SL, which was already recognizable. The hood, door skins, trunk lid, and tonneau cover were all made of aluminum to reduce weight. Due to the optional removable hardtop's slightly concave roof, which resembled a pagoda, the moniker "Pagoda" was immediately embraced. These SLs are now regarded as masterpieces of design, despite being divisive at the time of their introduction. When Mercedes unveiled the 280SL, the third and last generation of the "Pagoda," in 1967, it became clear that some automobiles don't change; they only get better. After evaluating a 280SL in 1968, Road & Track stated, "The Mercedes-Benz 280SL, the latest iteration of a line that started as the 230SL in 1963, is the same as ever, just better." According to its manufacturer, the 280SL is "a Grand Tourer in the traditional sense" and "a unique combination of sports car performance and saloon car comfort (a Mercedes-Benz saloon of course)." The highly regarded American motoring magazine praised it as "alone in the field" for those who value engineering, finesse, and high-quality construction. The 280 featured the same modified W111 chassis (W113) with a rear swing axle and independent front suspension and four-wheel disc brakes. Power came from a 2.8-liter version of Mercedes' robust inline-six and used Bosch fuel injection, a combination producing 160 horsepower in US-market variants, and 170 horsepower in European models such as this vehicle. The majority of US models were equipped with 4-speed automatics with only a rare few being made with a 4-speed manual as opposed to the European models which saw a larger quantity of manual transmissions. This specific 280SL is undoubtedly a cut above the rest. First purchased by a Canadian air force pilot, this vehicle was acquired during his station in Germany. Upon returning back to Canada he imported the vehicle with him where he continued his ownership for well over a decade until selling it to its second owner who after a few years sold the car to the most recent owner. The most recent owner owned this 280SL for almost 30 years, receiving it in 1994. He was a retired pilot, who stored the vehicle in his hangar and would only bring the vehicle out on days when there was no chance of rain. 2016 marked the beginning of a two-year-long 100% rotisserie restoration performed by Coachworks and Rudi & Co. and meticulously overseen by the owner. During the restoration, he would visit on a biweekly basis and although he did not perform the restoration himself, he played a huge role in its success. He personally flew over difficult to source original parts for the project regularly. Here at Canepa, we are no strangers to restorations of the highest level and can speak from experience that this 280SL fits the bill. All aspects of the vehicle were brought back to exactly the way they left the factory 55 years ago. During the exhaustive restoration, the owner displayed acute attention to detail to a level that is rarely seen, pushing Coachworks and Rudi & Co. to perform a restoration beyond their already high-level award-winning usual. Every nut and bolt was inspected and no aspect of the vehicle was overlooked. All mechanical components were inspected, reconditioned, restored, or replaced as needed. A complete engine overhaul was performed utilizing all new internal engine components. Once completely stripped down, the vehicle was restored to perfection utilizing laser precision. When painting the car, the same degree of accuracy was exemplified making sure everything was period correct. All body gaps once painted were uniformly set at 4mm. Anything that would or wouldn’t have been seen on the original car was taken care of. As a testament to the attention to detail, the hood features streaks and paint that runs toward the lower half. In their earlier years, Mercedes would dry their hoods by hanging them so the owner had the same done during the painting process to mirror the original paint job. All new factory glass and a mixture of replated and N.O.S. parts were used for the chrome. The original Bamboo Leather interior upholstery and carpets were completely restored and go perfectly with the recently completed paint creating this stunning color combo. Upon arrival at Canepa, every collector car for sale is put through an extensive and diligent process called the “Canepa Difference.” This includes a major and comprehensive mechanical inspection where all systems are checked, serviced, and restored as needed. They also receive an award-winning concours-level detailing, including a thorough cleaning of each and every surface. This 280SL passed our inspection flawlessly, as expected with how well restored and taken care of the vehicle was. Bruce has only seen three 280SL’s restored to this level, with one being a 280SL Canepa restored nearly 20 years ago. Do not miss this extremely rare chance to own what might well be the finest example of a European spec 1968 Mercedes Benz 280SL in its marvelous original color combo and the highly sought 4-speed manual transmission. 1968 Mercedes-Benu 280SL Canepa If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

Behind the wheel of this Lotus Mark 9, sitting low to the ground and gazing at the long hood through the Plexiglas screen, it's impossible not to conjure up images of vintage racing. Offered for sale, this Lotus Mark 9 is one of 30 cars built. Having taken part in every edition of Le Mans Classic and numerous races in the 60's and 50's, it is eligible for Goodwood - and is one of only two Lotus models eligible for the Mille Miglia. Small, light, durable and capable of superb performance, it's a top choice for all these events. Colin Chapman, brilliant young engineer and founder of Lotus, was already making a name for himself when he presented his Mark 9 in early 1955, the first two cars being ready to race at the Sebring 12 Hours in March. This was the first Lotus to be offered as a fully-built car, previous models being sold only as kits, and in its sales literature the company described the "Lotus system" of providing "two types of chassis, on which different engines could be mounted". These two chassis types were the Mark 6 and the Mark 9. The latter was advertised with Ford and MG engines, but most cars were sold with the Coventry Climax 1098 cm3 four-cylinder engine around which the Mark 9 had been designed. Front suspension was provided by swing axles with combination shock absorbers and coil springs, while the rear was fitted with a de Dion system with trailing arms and a Panhard bar. Braking was by magnesium drums, although discs were fitted on some cars, and a Ford steering box was used. The whole was clad in an aerodynamic wrap-around body designed by Frank Costin and manufactured by Williams & Pritchard. The car was praised for what Autosport described as its "exceptional cornering powers". When John Bolster tested one for the magazine, he achieved a top speed of almost 130 mph. Chapman and Ron Flockhart shared a Mark 9 at Le Mans in 1955, and "Auto Course" declared that because of the speed it displayed from relatively low power, the Lotus "can be described as the most efficient car in racing".It is thought that around 30 Mark 9s were built. Although only produced for a short time, it is considered by enthusiasts to be the link between the Mark 6 and the 11, and therefore occupies an important place in Lotus history. INTRODUCTION Two Lotus Mark Nines competed at the Sebring 12 Hour Sports Car race in 1955 – the first Lotus entry in a major international race outside UK. Race number 79 was driven by Frank Miller and George Rabe, and race number 78 by Norman Scott and “Sam” Samuelson. Because no relevant Lotus factory records survive from this time, the chassis numbers of the two Sebring cars are not known, and currently Historic Lotus Register refers to them as “Sebring 1” and “Sebring 2”. This note is primarily concerned with “Sebring 2”, the Scott/Samuelson car. The first owner of “Sebring 1” was Frank Miller of New York. The first owner of “Sebring 2” was Bobby Burns of Wichita Falls, Texas. MODEL HISTORY Following the success of the cycle-winged Lotus Mark Six in the early 1950’s, Lotus produced a derivative in 1954 with streamlined bodywork designed by de Havilland aerodynamicist Frank Costin. The car was designated Mark Eight. In 1954 Coventry Climax announced the availability of an 1100cc sports car engine, the FWA, based on their lightweight fire pump engine. One of the earliest of the FWA engines was fitted to a Lotus Mark Eight owned by Dick Steed, which first raced in September 1954. It was the first of many Coventry Climax engines to be fitted in a Lotus, but the installation in Dick Steed’s car was just a one-off. For the 1955 season Lotus designed a new car specifically to accept the new Coventry Climax engine, and this was the Lotus Mark Nine. The production Lotus Mark Nines had a multi-tubular chassis frame very similar to that of the 1954 Mark Eight, which was itself derived from the Mark Six chassis. The all-enveloping body, again designed by Frank Costin, was about 2 feet (610 mm) shorter than the Mark Eight’s. Front suspension was typical of Lotus at that time, with swing axles produced by cutting a Ford E93 beam axle in half and pivoting it in the middle. Rear suspension was de Dion, as on the Mark Eight, but this time using two long radius arms per side and a Panhard rod for location. Although a few cars had MG or Ford 10 engines, most of the 30 or so Mark Nines built had Coventry Climax FWA engines. Production Lotus Mark Nines had very large drum brakes, 11 inches (279 mm) diameter and 2.25 inches (57 mm) wide – enormous for a light 1100cc car. The brake drums were magnesium with cast-in steel liners. However it appears that there were early production problems with the brake drums (apparently with the bonding in of the steel liners), and the first two Mark Nines to be built – the two 1955 Sebring cars – had to be delivered with smaller Alfin brakes. The two Sebring cars were the only Mark Nines to have the smaller brakes, which were 9 inches (229 mm) diameter and 1.75 inches (44 mm) wide. There were also some chassis and bodywork differences from the later Mark Nines, which is not surprising since these two cars were effectively prototypes for the later cars. The differences make the two Sebring cars unique and easy to identify. It is interesting to note that when Autocar magazine described the Lotus Mark Nine (1st April 1955) the photographs which were used were of the Sebring cars. The two Sebring cars were delivered to their American owners, Frank Miller and Bobby Burns, in March 1955 (Autosport 18th March 1955, and Motor Racing April 1955). They seem to have had virtually no testing by Lotus before they were driven down to Southampton to be shipped to America. “SEBRING 2” (The writer is extremely grateful to Clark Lance, who owned “Sebring 2” for many years, for the history of the car whilst it was in America). The two Lotus Mark Nines at Sebring in 1955 were both vying for the lead in their class for the first part of the race. Then “Sebring 2”, whilst being driven by Samuelson, went off the track and cracked the sump on an obstruction in the grass. It seems that the driver had been blinded by the low evening sun. The result was that the car had to retire. (See Autosport, 25th March 1955 and Sports Car Illustrated, July 1955). There was a feature article about “Sebring 2” in Road & Track for June 1955, but it is thought that the photograph in the article of the car by the aircraft cargo door actually shows “Sebring 1”. After the Sebring race the car was raced in South West America by Norman Scott and owner Bobby Burns. Norman Scott was placed 1st in the Fairfax National races, Fairfax, Kansas on 5th September 1955. Bobby Burns was advertising the car for sale in Road & Track in November 1955 for $4,500. Ownership during 1956 is not known. “Sebring 2” was owned by Hamilton Presterbridge of Baton Rouge, Louisiana from late 1956 to late 1957. He competed with it at the Mansfield Louisiana National Races, 25th November 1956 and March 1957 (SCCA Sports Car Magazine January, May and July 1957). He advertised the car for sale in Road & Track, October 1957. Ownership from 1958 to 1960 is not known. Next recorded owner was Wendell Green of New Mexico. He and his son raced “Sebring 2” in Texas and California in 1961 and 1962. The current owner (Pierre Pinelli) has the 1962 New Mexico title to the car in the name of Wendell Green, and this quotes engine number 6258 which would be correct for an early 1955 Coventry Climax FWA. Wendell Green traded the car for an engineless Lotus Eleven from Chicago, Illinois in 1962. Between 1962 and about 1969 “Sebring 2” was reportedly owned by Tito Nappi of Rockford, Illinois. During this time it appears that a start was made on installing a Chevrolet V8. Don Kruzan of Rock Island, Illinois acquired the car (with V8) around 1969 in exchange for some Alfa Romeo parts. Clark Lance bought “Sebring 2” from Don Kruzan in 1971, and retained it in its largely original state until selling it to Pierre Pinelli of Nice in November 2002. “Sebring 2” was sent to Mike Brotherwood of Chippenham, England for restoration, arriving on 10th January 2003. The writer saw the car shortly afterwards at Mike Brotherwood’s premises, and it was clear that, thanks to the stewardship of Clark Lance, it had remained in remarkably original condition – a real “time warp” in fact – and the unique features shown in the 1st April 1955 Autocar photographs were there to be seen. Almost all of the original chassis and bodywork were used in the restoration; the chassis footwell cross tube had to be replaced after it had been cut about for the V8 installation and the undertray was replaced for the same reason. A new rear access hatch was also made. Otherwise the original parts were all re-used. Sold then to two French owners the car has participated many times in Le Mans Classic and Peter Auto races, sold by us to its last owner; we bought the car and engage it regularly in Le Mans Classic and in 50's by Peter Auto. "Sebring 2", is one of the most original Lotus Mark IX, ready to race and the first ever Lotus to enter an international race, made it eligible for the best world events. It will be delivered with a nice set of spare parts and a very nice historical file. 1955 Lotus MK9 EX Sebring 12H Historic Cars If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

- 1988 Mercedes-Benz 560SL
The SL series, short for “Sport Leicht” or “Sport Light,” has been an emblem of Mercedes-Benz’s commitment to excellence in engineering and design since its inception in the 1950s with the now iconic 300SL. Going on 71 years in production, the SL series has continued to evolve, with each new generation building upon the successes of its predecessors. By the time the 560SL was introduced in the late 1980s, the SL series had already firmly established itself as a symbol of luxury and performance. This lineage is carried on to the modern day, with the SL series still offering the same luxury and performance that the original cars did over 70 years ago. The 560SL was the range-topping model for Mercedes-Benz in the 1988 production year. Part of the now iconic R107 series, the 560SL was only offered in North America, Canada, Japan, and Australia. Powered by a robust 5.6-liter V8 engine, the 560SL delivered a potent 227 horsepower, making it a joy to drive on both city streets and open highways. The car’s acceleration was smooth and effortless, and it featured a four-speed automatic transmission that ensured a comfortable and refined driving experience. The 560SL also benefits from the timeless design of the R107 series Benzs, with its sleek, aerodynamic body lines and distinctive round headlamps. Inside, the interior was a masterclass of comfort and craftsmanship, offering leather upholstery, wood trim, and a host of amenities that showcased Mercedes-Benz’s dedication to luxury and quality. The R107 series production ceased in 1988, with the redesigned R129 taking its place for the 1989 model year. Even decades after its production ceased, the 560SL maintains a strong presence in the collector car world, and values for great examples have remained relatively high over the years. Furthermore, the 560SL was known for its robust construction and reliability, which means that many well-preserved examples can still be found on the road today, as long as proper maintenance was done throughout the car’s lifetime. The R107 series cars all retain great collectability, but the range-topping 560SL certainly draws the most desire from collectors. Pricing has seen a slow and steady rise over the years, with low-mileage cars finished in interesting colors and featuring proper service history bringing the strongest money. While there is little likelihood of pricing skyrocketing on these models, we see them as a safe bet for the future, as long as you do your due diligence on the car’s history and choose a good example with low miles and interesting colors, such as the example offered here. This 1988 Mercedes-Benz 560SL, chassis # WDBBA48D6JA088342, is a one-owner from new, extremely original, time-capsule example showing just 5,310 original miles. It features beautiful original Midnight Blue paint throughout the exterior and a wonderfully preserved Burgundy Leather interior. The car also includes its factory color-matched hard top that has never even been placed on the car! According to the included original window sticker, this 560SL was sold new in 1988 through Estate Motors of Birmingham, Michigan, to its one and only owner, who has placed the car on consignment with us. The original suggested retail price when new was $63,410. The car has lived its entire life just up the road from the original selling dealer in Troy, Michigan, and it returned to the dealership when needed for service work. Service receipts are present from 1988, showing the car’s first service. General service receipts are available for the first few years of the car’s life, showing regular maintenance, but as with cars with mileage this low, there really is not too much to report. The car was serviced regularly, with oil and fluid changes each year at the local Mercedes-Benz dealer, and was driven very sparingly with a CARFAX entry from September of 1997 indicating 4,400 miles on the odometer. As it sits today, this is likely as close to purchasing a brand-new 560SL as one could hope to get 35 years later. This car has been maintained and protected impeccably and remains in absolutely outstanding original condition. With its low miles, excellent colors, and fastidious ownership, this truly represents the pinnacle of collectability for the R107 series Mercedes-Benz and would be an excellent cornerstone in any collection. Included with the sale are the factory color-matched hardtop that has never been placed on the car, the original window sticker, available service records, clean CARFAX, factory books, and manuals, as well as the original hang tags for the car. EXTERIOR Body And Paint The original Midnight Blue paint is in amazing condition, with a beautiful and consistent finish throughout the car. The metal is smooth everywhere you look or feel. The panels are straight and well-aligned with good gaps, and the body is straight down the sides. The accompanying hard top is just as nice and is believed to have never been used. Overall, this car presents exactly how you’d expect a 5,300-mile time capsule would. Glass And Trim The glass is all original, along with the trim. The glass presents in like new condition all around. The chrome brightwork all around the car is very shiny and clear. The rubber trim pieces are still a deep black with minor wear present but matching the originality of the car. Wheels The wheels are free of any curb rash or scuffing and show virtually no signs of wear. INTERIOR Seats And Surfaces The seats are in very good condition, showing only very minor signs of wear from ingress and egress, but absolutely commensurate with an excellent original example. The original red carpet throughout the cabin displays wonderfully, fits as if new, and is free of staining or fading. The dash is in fantastic condition, with smooth clean wood, bright and clean gauges, and smooth issue free dash top. Overall the interior remains in wonderfully preserved condition, and it truly in astounding original condition. Functionality And Accessories All systems inside work as they should, including the power passenger side mirror, which is known to lose functionality. The A/C works as it should, as well as the radio and the cassette player. ENGINE BAY AND TRUNK Engine Bay The engine bay is incredibly clean. The paint surrounding the latches and hinges is unlike any 560 we have seen with no chipping or wear in these areas. All factory stampings and markings are still visible. All hoses and plastics are still deep black with no dryness or symptoms of cracking. Trunk Area The trunk area is nice and tidy with the correct red carpets to match the rest of the interior. The spare is located underneath the carpet as well as the battery. Underside The underside is virtually spotless. There are 0 issues to note and is likely the cleanest undercarriage on a 560SL you will ever see. Factory VIN stickers all present in place and very legible. MECHANICALS Engine The engine starts up quickly with no hesitation. Acceleration is strong and smooth with no hiccups or stumbles. Transmission The transmission shifts quietly and peacefully through the gears and the only real indicator that the car is shifting is audibly. Brakes And Suspension The brake pedal is firm, and brings the car to a smooth and controlled stop. The suspension, while soft is very comfortable but sprung in a way that still feels sporty. Tires The tires are Pirelli P6 Cinturato and they are from 2018 with plenty of tread and great sidewalls. DRIVING EXPERIENCE The SL series has always provided an excellent balance of power and comfort and the 5.6 liter V-8 in the R107 560SL combined with the simple yet beautifully appointed interior certainly does not disappoint. These cars provide a wonderfully useable classic experience, with a supple and smooth ride and plenty of power to keep up with modern day traffic and cover mileage, whether it be on twisty back roads or long stretches of highway. This particular 560SL provides the unique experience of being able to purchase what aquits to essentially a factory fresh car. With just 5,310 miles from new and beautifully preserved exterior and interior, this could be considered a once in a lifetime chance to experience what driving off the lot with a range topping 560SL would have felt like in 1988. 1988 Mercedes-Benz 560SL LBI Limited 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 The SL series, short for “Sport Leicht” or “Sport Light,” has been an emblem of Mercedes-Benz’s commitment to excellence in engineering and design since its inception in the 1950s with the now iconic 300SL. Going on 71 years in production, the SL series has continued to evolve, with each new generation building upon the successes of its predecessors. By the time the 560SL was introduced in the late 1980s, the SL series had already firmly established itself as a symbol of luxury and performance. This lineage is carried on to the modern day, with the SL series still offering the same luxury and performance that the original cars did over 70 years ago. The 560SL was the range-topping model for Mercedes-Benz in the 1988 production year. Part of the now iconic R107 series, the 560SL was only offered in North America, Canada, Japan, and Australia. Powered by a robust 5.6-liter V8 engine, the 560SL delivered a potent 227 horsepower, making it a joy to drive on both city streets and open highways. The car’s acceleration was smooth and effortless, and it featured a four-speed automatic transmission that ensured a comfortable and refined driving experience. The 560SL also benefits from the timeless design of the R107 series Benzs, with its sleek, aerodynamic body lines and distinctive round headlamps. Inside, the interior was a masterclass of comfort and craftsmanship, offering leather upholstery, wood trim, and a host of amenities that showcased Mercedes-Benz’s dedication to luxury and quality. The R107 series production ceased in 1988, with the redesigned R129 taking its place for the 1989 model year. Even decades after its production ceased, the 560SL maintains a strong presence in the collector car world, and values for great examples have remained relatively high over the years. Furthermore, the 560SL was known for its robust construction and reliability, which means that many well-preserved examples can still be found on the road today, as long as proper maintenance was done throughout the car’s lifetime. The R107 series cars all retain great collectability, but the range-topping 560SL certainly draws the most desire from collectors. Pricing has seen a slow and steady rise over the years, with low-mileage cars finished in interesting colors and featuring proper service history bringing the strongest money. While there is little likelihood of pricing skyrocketing on these models, we see them as a safe bet for the future, as long as you do your due diligence on the car’s history and choose a good example with low miles and interesting colors, such as the example offered here. This 1988 Mercedes-Benz 560SL, chassis # WDBBA48D6JA088342, is a one-owner from new, extremely original, time-capsule example showing just 5,310 original miles. It features beautiful original Midnight Blue paint throughout the exterior and a wonderfully preserved Burgundy Leather interior. The car also includes its factory color-matched hard top that has never even been placed on the car! According to the included original window sticker, this 560SL was sold new in 1988 through Estate Motors of Birmingham, Michigan, to its one and only owner, who has placed the car on consignment with us. The original suggested retail price when new was $63,410. The car has lived its entire life just up the road from the original selling dealer in Troy, Michigan, and it returned to the dealership when needed for service work. Service receipts are present from 1988, showing the car’s first service. General service receipts are available for the first few years of the car’s life, showing regular maintenance, but as with cars with mileage this low, there really is not too much to report. The car was serviced regularly, with oil and fluid changes each year at the local Mercedes-Benz dealer, and was driven very sparingly with a CARFAX entry from September of 1997 indicating 4,400 miles on the odometer. As it sits today, this is likely as close to purchasing a brand-new 560SL as one could hope to get 35 years later. This car has been maintained and protected impeccably and remains in absolutely outstanding original condition. With its low miles, excellent colors, and fastidious ownership, this truly represents the pinnacle of collectability for the R107 series Mercedes-Benz and would be an excellent cornerstone in any collection. Included with the sale are the factory color-matched hardtop that has never been placed on the car, the original window sticker, available service records, clean CARFAX, factory books, and manuals, as well as the original hang tags for the car. EXTERIOR Body And Paint The original Midnight Blue paint is in amazing condition, with a beautiful and consistent finish throughout the car. The metal is smooth everywhere you look or feel. The panels are straight and well-aligned with good gaps, and the body is straight down the sides. The accompanying hard top is just as nice and is believed to have never been used. Overall, this car presents exactly how you’d expect a 5,300-mile time capsule would. Glass And Trim The glass is all original, along with the trim. The glass presents in like new condition all around. The chrome brightwork all around the car is very shiny and clear. The rubber trim pieces are still a deep black with minor wear present but matching the originality of the car. Wheels The wheels are free of any curb rash or scuffing and show virtually no signs of wear. INTERIOR Seats And Surfaces The seats are in very good condition, showing only very minor signs of wear from ingress and egress, but absolutely commensurate with an excellent original example. The original red carpet throughout the cabin displays wonderfully, fits as if new, and is free of staining or fading. The dash is in fantastic condition, with smooth clean wood, bright and clean gauges, and smooth issue free dash top. Overall the interior remains in wonderfully preserved condition, and it truly in astounding original condition.

- 1971 Porsche 911
The Porsche 911 2.2 T (T for Touring) is THE 911 Classic. It is often regarded as the little sister of the 2.2L. Produced for just two years, its 125 bhp engine was replaced by a 155 bhp on the 2.2 E and a 180 bhp on the 2.2 S. Light and precise, the Porsche 911T is a reliable car. Pleasant to drive, without forgetting that it’s an old lady, it will seduce purists. The characteristic sound of its flat 6 makes you vibrate as soon as you start the engine. As standard, the 911 T had a 4-speed manual gearbox. This one was ordered with an optional 5-speed gearbox, gold Porsche lettering on the rear bonnet and a single round rear-view mirror on the left, which gives it a real charm. Our 911 T is originally from the United States. It was delivered in 1971 in the much sought-after Bahia Red with the traditional Fuchs 5-spoke wheels, which are still in good condition. As its certificate of authenticity indicates, it has retained its original colour scheme and engine. The interior, all in tan beige leather, is original and in a good state of preservation given its age. The comfort seats are well supported and have no cracks or holes. The original maintenance book is supplied with the car. The 911 remained in the hands of its first owner for 16 years. It was then owned by the same family and serviced by the same specialist Porsche garage in Omaha between 1987 and 2016. All the invoices detailing the operations carried out are provided. In 2016, the Porsche belonged to a French gentleman living in the States. He brought it back to France in 2018 and waited until 2019 to register it. All necessary works were done to keep the body and the inside of the 911 beautiful. It continued to be serviced regularly. It was then sold to the current owner who has enjoyed his oldtimer occasionally. To ensure a perfect use, he recently spent another 4000 EUR of works. All in all, we can say that this 911T is a healthy car that was cherished by its various owners, has always been regularly maintained but has not benefited from a full restoration. It is a beautiful exemplar of the 2.2L , the purest incarnation of the 911, the real Porsche Classic. The 911 T is best appreciated on a daily basis. A car that’s easy to live with, so beautiful, so endearing … which is still as attractive after more than 50 years of existence.

- 1970 Ford Capri 1600 MK1
The Ford Capri was unveiled in January 1969 at the Brussels Motor Show with sales starting the following month. It was designed by Philip T. Clark who was also involved in the design of the Ford Mustang. It was intended as the European equivalent of the Ford Mustang. The Capri shares a lot of mechanical components with the Mk2 Ford Cortina. It was highly successful for Ford, selling nearly 1.9 million units in its lifetime. The Ford Capri Mk1 1600 offered here at Autostorico is a genuine 2 owner car from new and has covered a mere 54,396 miles. First registered in August 1970 to Mrs Plastow of Cuddington in Buckinghamshire. Finished in White with an immaculate Brown interior. Having recently undergone a full mechanical inspection and service this stunning example has also had a new set of tyres fitted to its RS style wheels. The original wheels still accompany the car. 1970 Ford Capri 1600 MK1 Autostorico Partners LLP If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.
