1953 Bentley R Type - Manual
£34,950

This rather superb Bentley R Type has resided with its last custodian for 8 years. Prior to that it had been owned for 15 years and in fact each keeper appears to have kept the car for a long period of time which accounts for it having had only six keepers in total. What is clear is that each has maintained the upkeep of the car extremely well and that has culminated in the car we offer today which is in exceptional condition. The car has completed relatively few miles in the last 22 years but during that time it has been regularly serviced and any work that has been required has been carried out. Over the last eight years work that has been carried out includes new tyres (Nov 21) along with a new heater fan and matrix and a new clock. The radio was refurbed and repaired in 2020 whilst a LED headlight upgrade, along with new flasher units was carried out in 2019. Other miscellaneous works include an overhaul of the carburettors and a new fuel pump in 2016 whilst new front brake cylinders and shoes were fitted in 2015 along with electronic ignition. The car has been annually serviced apart from during the pandemic and the last full service was carried out in March of this year along with a fresh advisory free MOT. The body work is superb and the only issue of note is some minor blistering on the boot lid which can be easily rectified. The paint finish is excellent and as the photographs will demonstrate the car presents very well indeed. The underside of the car is superb and has been well preserved with no signs of corrosion. The interior has been refurbished in the past and continues to look fresh apart from some minor wear to the driver's seat. The interior wood and headlining is all excellent. The car starts on the button and very quickly settles into a very quiet idle as you would expect of a Bentley. This car has the sought-after manual gearbox car and it moves through the gears without issue. The car is also fitted with a sun roof and the tool drawer underneath the dashboard is almost complete. The history file contains lots of invoices relating to work over the years. There is also a copy of the Bentley delivery/spec sheet from 1953 as well as work notes from Hooper Motor Services who carried out work on the car in 1961. A Bentley R Type handbook is also in the file along with a book which lists all of the chassis and engine numbers confirming that this is a matching numbers car in its original exterior and interior colour scheme. This is a really exceptional example of a Bentley R Type which has clearly been very well cared for during its life and is well suited to comfortable long distance touring. We strongly recommend viewing.

1936 MG TA
£29,750

This 1936 MG TA has just emerged from a comprehensive chassis up rebuild. The car had been stored in a barn for over 40 years prior to this. The restoration has included a good upgrade which is an XPAG engine that has been fully rebuilt although the original engine block will come with the car. The full list of works includes the following: All body panels blasted, primed and painted Front brakes renewed, rear brakes overhauled New brake master cylinder Kings pins and rear trunnion bushes renewed New tyres and tubes Radiator re-cored with all new hoses Chromework re-chromed where needed Engine re-sleeved, re bored, new pistons, crankshaft re-ground with new bearings, cylinder head overhauled Fast road cam fitted Stainless steel exhaust fitted New wiring loom All instruments overhauled New interior trim and new carpets New hood, sidescreens, new frame and fixings New clutch drive plate - a later MG TD gearbox has been fitted which is all synchro. New ignition system and light switches New road wheel spinners New petrol tank straps and rubbers New wood as required, floor boards, rear panel and storage panel New battery and isolator switch New instrument mounting panel Direction indicators fitted Dynamator fitted. As you can see the list is very comprehensive and the total cost of the restoration has come to a little under £20k and that does not include a large element of labour. There is also the useful upgrade of a Dynamator which is effectively an alternator packaged as a Dynamo. The end result as the pictures will show is a lovely looking MG TA in a very attractive colour combination of black with red leather. The car runs and drives as it should and provides a lively performance with the fast road cam that has been fitted. The history files contains a thick pile of invoices relating to the restoration. The car is the perfect way to start a summer of motoring.

1992 Ford Escort RS Cosworth - Big Turbo model
£59,500

The Ford Escort RS Cosworth really needs no introduction but to briefly summarise it was a sports derivative and rally homologation special of the fifth generation Ford Escort. This model was available as a road car between 1992 and 1996 and a total of 7,145 cars were built. The first generation which comprised 2,500 cars were built for homologation and these were fitted with the larger Garrett T34 Turbo. The early cars are the more sort after of which this is one being registered in August 1992. This particular example has been with the last custodian for seven years and during that time it has remained in storage and has covered approximately 400 miles. It has been well preserved and cared for over the last seven years. Prior to that the car was again kept in storage for over 10 years which accounts for the current mileage of 65,951 miles. The car retains all of its originality including its factory paint which has various blemishes but overall presents very well indeed as the photographs will demonstrate. Equipment includes electrically operated door mirrors, electric front windows, heated front and rear windscreen and washer jets, headlight washers, opening rear quarter vent windows. centre and rear arm rests and rear head restraints, load compartment light, turbo gauge, voltmeter, oil pressure gauge, height adjustable driver's seat, three spoke leather steering wheel, quartz digital clock, glovebox illumination, locking body-coloured fuel cap, central locking,remote tailgate release, spare wheel cover, The interior still presents very well indeed with a good dashboard that has no cracks whilst the Recaro seats which are finished in the Polaris Grey Hex cloth are still in good condition and just show minor wear in places. The rear seats are in excellent condition. The boot space is in good condition with no marks on the carpet. The carpets are all in good condition having been protected by mats. Externally the car has body colour front bumper with black lower splitter, louvred bonnet air intakes, wing air extraction grilles, aerodynamic rear wing with lower boot spoiler, Ford RS five-spoke alloy wheels. The underside of the car remains in very good condition. Overall this is very much a factory original car which is showing the odd blemish but in the main remains in excellent condition after its near 66,000 miles. We cannot warrant the mileage, but knowing how long the car has remained in storage and looking at the originality and condition of the car the mileage looks to be correct. The engine starts on the button and pulls well with no smoke and the gearbox goes through the gears without issue. The last cambelt change was in September 2017 when the mileage stood at 65,747 miles. The history file contains the V5 and miscellaneous invoices including the latest cambelt change. The car has had 6 keepers in total. Fast Fords of any description have been in vogue for quite some time which is why values of these rare Cosworth powered Escorts continue to climb in value. This car has lots of appeal given its originality which even includes the water bag from the injection kit as well as the fitted brick size mobile phone holder! The trajectory of values remains on an upward course and this relatively low mileage car provides the perfect opportunity to grab an early Escort RS Cosworth that should deliver further valuation upside over the coming years.

1954 MG TF 1250
£22,950

This lovely MG TF 1250 has been with the same family for the last 23 years. It has clearly been very well maintained and preserved. Prior to their ownership the car was subjected to a full body refurbishment and in 2004 the engine was fully rebuilt by Brown and Gammons which included an unleaded conversion at a cost of £8,000. Since then the engine has completed just 5,000 miles. As the photographs will demonstrate the paint finish on the car remains excellent and mechanically the car is still in super order as you would expect of a car that has only done 5,000 miles on a fully rebuilt engine. The interior is showing some wear in places but remains generally in good order. The car starts on the button and runs cleans and moves through the gears without issue. More recent work includes new rear brake master cylinders and a new water pump. It has full wet weather gear and a tonneau. The history file contains various invoices relating to work carried out over the years including the full detailed invoice for the work carried out by Brown and Gammons on the engine in 2004. Also included is a handbook and a number of other reference books on the TC. There are also numerous spares that come with the car. The car has been maintained well over the last 20 years and should give many years of excellent service to its next custodian

£13,500

This 1993 Jaguar XJS 4.0 2+2 Auto has been with its last custodian for 12 years and during that time it has been regularly used, serviced and maintained. The car presents exceptionally well with a good corrosion free body with consistent and excellent paint finish across the car. The underside is also in really good order with no corrosion issues. The car has only been used on dry days and that reflects in the condition today. The interior is also in excellent condition with just the usual wear showing on the driver's seat, but aside from that the front and rear seats are in good order. Mechanically the car is very good and it starts on the button and runs cleanly. The auto gearbox is very smooth with no issues. The hood works as it should and is in good condition.

1972 Jaguar E-Type Series 3 Coupe
£54,995

This series 3 E-Type has had just two keepers over the last 16 years and during that time it has been well maintained and cared for. The car was subjected to a full body restoration in the 90s and around 10 years ago it was repainted to a very good standard whilst the interior has also been refreshed.

In recent years the car has had a good deal of maintenance to maintain its mechanical condition which include a new header tank, refurbishment of the power steering rack, and brakes overhauled. In 2020 the car was completely gone through and the cost of these works came to close to £4,000. Other notable works in recent years include: Bumpers rechromed Polly bushed front suspension High performance starter New distributor Chrome wire wheels Refurbished brake callipers Reconditioned gearbox Powder coated rear axle beam New brake servo and master cylinder All hoses replaced On the road the car quickly gets up to temperature with excellent power delivery and oil pressure; the car moves through the gears without issue. The car was road tested by Classic and Sportscar magazine in October 2018 and a copy of this is in the file. The history file contains a heritage certificate which confirms this is a matching numbers car in its original colour scheme. The history file is quite comprehensive with invoices dating back to the 80s.

1953 Jowett Jupiter
£29.950

We have been asked to market this lovely 1953 Jowett Jupiter on behalf of a client who is located in Norfolk which is where the car is currently kept. He has been the custodian of this car for the last seven years during which time it has been carefully maintained and preserved. It is an older restoration but still presents very well indeed with the odd paintwork blemish whilst the interior is also in excellent condition. The car has a factory reconditioned engine which is not uncommon for cars of this era. The engine starts on the button and runs cleanly and the car moves through its gears without issue. To demonstrate how mechanically fit the car is it was put through an MOT in March which it has passed without any advisories. It goes without saying that these are rare cars which rarely come to market and this one is the sole example currently available for sale so do act quick if you are seeking open top motoring for the coming summer. The owner has provided us with some notes on the car which we have pasted below. If you would like to view this car which we highly recommend, it is based in Norfolk and we will put you in direct contact with the owner to arrange this. "We have owned our Jowett Jupiter for 7 Years. A body off restoration had taken place before we owned it, clearly with the target of maintaining originality wherever possible. She rides on Avon H.M.Tourist, cross-ply tyres. The chassis remains in a lovely, black painted condition. It was fitted with a factory reconditioned engine and we understand that these engines were built to the improved specification of the later models which is very advantageous. Having decoked it and examined the bores which show no wear, we are under the impression that the engine has not yet reached the stage where it is fully “run-in”. The car has a steel chassis and bulkhead, door frames, etc., and is panelled in aluminium. Owing to personal circumstances, followed by the pandemic, we have not been able to use the car as much as we would have liked to and the time has come to find it a new owner. We did successfully complete the Jowett Great North Road rally in 2019, but since then usage has been minimal. The car is painted in a lovely version of British Racing Green which we believe is the most suitable colour for the car. Yes, it does have very few minor blemishes which were present when we bought it, but they remain as they were then. As it is a non-metallic finish they could easily be removed. However, we buy our cars with the intention of driving enjoyment, having no interest in concours shows etc., and so have generally left the paintwork as is. We have many friends who own concours cars and other than trailering them to shows, are afraid to use them. Over the years we have resisted making alterations to the car, but we did discover that many Jupiters have been fitted with the smaller choke and jet size Zenith carburettors from the Javelin, owners having found that proper Jupiter units are no longer available. Naturally, this reduces the performance of the cars. Consequently, we commissioned a carburettor reconditioning company to build us a pair of carburettors to the correct Jupiter specification. Fitted with these the car has significantly better performance. The seat was recovered in red leather when the car was restored and a new, high quality, hood was fitted. When lowered the hood drops into the area behind the seat and gives a very pleasing look to the car when the hood is down. Of all the classic cars that we have owned, this one probably receives the most attention when it is out on the road. We will never forget the time when we sat 3 abreast with our grandson and a Porsche pulled alongside us as we drove down a dual carriageway. They hooted, shouted, and waved with their enjoyment at seeing this rare car. The shape of the car is very interesting. It seems to spark a feeling of pleasure in people that see it for the first time. The front profile is somewhat powerfully shaped, with parts of the boxer engine visible through the grill. Then the rear of the car which gracefully curves downward provides an exciting contrast. Photographs of the car taken from the side are very interesting. It presents an unusual version of car design and along with cars like the Jaguar XK120 must represent a point of transition from the standard British box cars of the 1930s. The car has a new MOT with no advisories. The history file contains photographs of the restoration and important technical notes, etc."

1980 Chevrolet Corvette C3
£14,995

This 1980 Chevrolet Corvette C3 arrived in the UK in 1988 and has clearly been well cared for over the last two decades or so. The paintwork is generally in nice condition with the odd blemish and a few micro blisters on the front wings and one of the T Tops.The interior remains in good condition with the seats still in excellent order with no rips or tears.. The C3 is fitted with a 5,7 litre V8 which makes for a very nice sound track and there is little need for a radio in the cockpit when you can hear the rumble of the V8! This car is also fitted with the four speed manual gearbox which moves through the gears without issue and makes for a much more fun driving experience than the auto version. The car also benefits from a removable T top so that you can benefit from the sunshine and the V8 soundtrack. More recent work on the car includes new front brake calipers and pads, new alternator, Edelbrock inlet manifold, Holley Carb, new stereo, new OEM electric aerial, and electric cooling fans. The history file includes almost a full MOT history since the car's arrival in 1988 and one anomaly in the more recent history suggests that the mileage is closer to 88,000 miles than the suggested 101,000 on the clock. The car has a current MOT with no advisories which expires in April 2022. This car is now available for viewing.We are advertising this car on behalf of a local client and we will put interested parties in direct touch with the owner.
