224 A 1949 Bentley Mk VI Special, registration
number KLP 607, chassis number B499CD,
engine number B500C, British Racing Green.
Bentley Motors, founded by Walter Owen
Bentley, had an illustrious racing history, winning
numerous races including Le Mans five times.
Bentley went into receivership in 1931 and was
subsequently purchased by Rolls Royce. Then
production moved from Cricklewood to Derby and
the first new model, a 3½ litre, appeared in 1933,
which became known as the Silent Sports Car.
The majority of Mk VI and similar Rolls Royce
models introduced after WWII were delivered
with standard steel saloon bodies, made by Pressed
Steel. However customers still had the option to
have a rolling chassis delivered to a coach builder
of their choice, where a bespoke body would be
fitted and trimmed. B499 CD was such a car - she
was delivered to Gurney Nutting on the 6th June
1948, where a four door sports saloon body was
fitted. From there, B499 CD travelled to Jack
Barclay Ltd where the new lucky owner would
take delivery on the 8th April 1949. B499 CD was
purchased by the current owner with the intention
of restoring the original Gurney Nutting body to
its former glory. Unfortunately, after careful
inspection, it was felt that the body was beyond
repair and the decision was taken to create a
Special in the best sporting tradition. A thorough
programme of restoration and creation has taken
place, with a new four seat tourer body having
been made in ash, with hand formed aluminium
panels. The engine has been rebuilt with 20 thou
big end & 30 thou main bearings, valve guides,
cylinder head studs and the block has been sleeved
back to standard. The four speed gearbox was
found to be in good condition but a new clutch and
thrust bearing were fitted. The chassis was re-
sprayed and the lower trunnions were rebuilt. The
brakes were rebuilt with new seals and servo and
the refurbished chassis now rolls on stoved enamel
17 inch wheels with new tyres. When all the work
was completed the engine and gearbox were
moved 14 inches back on the chassis and the
radiator was lowered. The interior has been re-
trimmed with green leather seats and door cards,
which complement the green carpets. The
bespoke mahogany dashboard has refurbished
dials and an electronic rev counter. There is also a
wood rim steering wheel fitted for that finishing
touch. To complement the British Racing Green
body, new weather gear has been made in black
double duck, consisting of a hood, side screens,
full tonneau and hood cover. B499 CD further
benefits from a fold-flat windscreen, aero screens,
a heavy duty alternator and has been fully re- genuine 107,000 miles from new and has a full

work. Purchased by the current owner in 2009,
the intention was to finish the car and compete in
trials events. However, due to other commitments,
this hasn't been possible. JAO 308 has benefited
from extensive restoration work, including a
rebuilt engine, chassis, running gear, wiring loom,
inner panel work and ash frame. The outer panels
have been hung on the frame and have received a
coat of protective green paint. The history file
contains an Allard instruction manual, copies of
Allard engineer's reports, assorted photographs of
the restoration in progress, invoices and various
road test reports. With such a lot of the hard work
already completed, JAO 308 offers the next owner
an exciting opportunity to complete a rare car and
join an exclusive club. RF60, no current MOT or

235 A 1988 Porsche 911 Carrera Targa Sport,
registration number B8 TGA, chassis number
WP0ZZZ91ZJS141182, engine number 63J04421,
graphite green. The legendary 911 was first
unveiled to the general public at the 1963
Frankfurt Motor Show and the first production
cars were delivered in 1964. The 911 production
has evolved over the years with several cosmetic
and mechanical changes, increased engine size and
more luxurious trim finishes. B8 TGA, a desirable
3.2 litre engine Targa Sport, has been owned by
the current lady owner for the past six years.
During that time she has maintained the car with
no expense spared. The body work is finished in
graphite green (recently re-sprayed) a rare colour
option, which complements the parchment leather
interior. B8 TGA further benefits from other
luxury refinements such as electric drivers seat,
CD multi-changer, electric windows, mirrors,
heavy duty battery, G50 gearbox, immobiliser,
central locking and removable Targa roof. The
full Porsche service history confirms the mileage
of 105,000 miles, with service and maintenance
receipts, hand books and old MOTs. The lady
owner informs us that B8 TGA has been her pride
and joy and it has never been out in the rain during
her ownership. This 911 has been maintained in
excellent condition and should make the next
owner very proud. V5C, MOT to September

236 A 1975 Ford Granada Ghia Coupé,
registration number HTT 710N, chassis number
GAGCPM01310, engine number PM1310, flame
orange. The Granada range was launched in 1972
with a four door saloon and swooping two door
coupé, which was only available initially on the
Continent. UK car buyers had to wait until 1974
to experience the range topping Ghia coupé.
Powered by the 3 litre Essex V6 engine mated to
the C3 three speed auto gearbox, gave effortless
performance with a top speed of 110 mph and a 0-
60 mph of eleven seconds when new. The Ghia
coupé is a very rare sight on the roads today with
perhaps only a couple of hundred survivors
remaining from the production run of
approximately 9600. This Ghia coupé has been the
subject of a full bare metal restoration, carried out
by the leading Granada restoration company
CARR (Classic Auto Restoration & Repair) and
has been features in Classic Ford on two occasions
(July 2009 & May 2010). HTT 710N rolled off
the production line in 1974 and was registered to
its first Devon owner in 1975, a director of a local
property company. The supplying dealer being
Hughes Ford of Exeter. Finished in the 'oh so
seventies' colour combination of flame orange
with a tobacco brown vinyl roof, which
complements the 'shagtastic' velour and wood trim
to a tee. Further luxury refinements found on the
flagship Ford are a steel sunroof, original Ford
over mats, leather trimmed steering wheel and the
retro digital clock. During the restoration the
decision was taken to install a four speed manual
gearbox. This was a period factory option but
very few customers 'ticked' that option box,
preferring the lazy automatic. HTT 710N has a
good history file with receipts, old MOTs and the
two magazine articles featuring the restoration.
The vendor says that the Ghia coupé captures that
retro cool vibe and epitomises the paisley pattern,
kipper tie and flares era better than any other car
from that period. This professional restored Ghia
coupé must surely be one of the very best
survivors and offers the next owner a rare
opportunity to indulge their seventies dream.

237 A 2007 Morgan Aero 8 Mk III, registration
number TBC, chassis number J0438, Monteray
blue. The Aero 8 was Morgan first new model
since the 4/4 was seen the late 1930s. Breaking
away from the traditional ash framed body to a all-
new aluminium chassis. Powered by BMWs V8
engine driven through a Getrag six speed gearbox,
it was endowed with true super car performance
with a maximum speed of 160 mph and a 0-62
mph achieved in under 5 seconds. The Aero 8
continues to be built at the Malvern Link factory
aside its Aeromax sibling to exacting standards.
J0438 has lived a very interesting life. It started
out as Morgan's 2007 show and press car.
Unfortunately during one of the press days it was
crashed and written off by a well known motoring
journalist. The current owner has undertaken a full
rebuilt with a new Morgan chassis (receipt for
£10,722 on file), and numerous other components
totalling approximately £26,000. J0438 was
subsequently submitted for a SVA test, which it
passed with flying colours. Finished in the original
colour of Monteray blue with a full saffron leather
interior with blue carpets piped in saffron and a
blue mohair hood. The mechanical specification is
very high with a 4-cam 32 valve V8 engine, a
Getrag six speed gearbox, variable assisted power
steering, front independent suspension with Eibach
coil springs with Koni shock absorbers, rear
independent suspension with fully floating discs,
rose jointed linkages, AP racing brakes with
ventilated cast iron discs, 4 pot alloy calipers and 2
pot rears, and five spoke 18 inch OZ magnesium
alloy wheels fitted with Dunlop SP Sport 9000
225/40ZR18 tyres. There is a vast history file
accompanying the car outlining all of the rebuild
work, various receipts and photographs of the
rebuild in progress. It is hoped by the time of the
auction, J0438 will have been issued an age
related registration number and V5C. MOT to
March 2012, no current tax See illustrations

240 A 1960 Jaguar Mk II 2.4 Litre saloon,
registration nuumber 863 FDV, chassis number
103556D/N, engine number 8G4993-8, Indigo
blue. Jaguar launched the compact 2.4 sports
saloon in 1955 with unitary construction, which
was a huge leap forward in design from the
separate chassis employed in previous models.
The 2.4 was powered by a version of the XK
engine, first seen in the XK 120, which in C and D
Type form went onto win Le Mans four times.
The Mk II version appeared in October 1959,
available with 2.4, 3.4 & 3.8 litre engines, and
offered the sporting enthusiast grace, pace and
value for money. 863 FDV, a desirable manual
overdrive example, has resided in the Bideford
area of Devon with it's three owners since rolling
off the Brown Lane production line. Finished in
Indigo blue (which was re-sprayed 20 years ago)
with a contrasting grey leather interior, walnut
dashboard and door cappings. The three owners
have driven 863 FDV approximately 89,000 miles
and have maintained her to a high standard. She
benefits from recently having a stainless steel
exhaust, a new radiator and subframe mounts and
brake overhaul (receipt of file for £1062.34) The
history file contains service bills, old MOTs and
owner's manual. 863 FDV started readily on our
recent visit and sounded very throaty with it's
stainless steel exhaust. With its continuous history
and regular maintenance it should offer the next
custodian many more years of service. V5C, elliptic leaf springs. The resulting new car was a
MOT and taxed to February 2012 See illustrations real wolf in sheep's clothing with a top speed of
£10000 - 12000 120 mph and a 0-60 time of eight seconds. This
beautifully restored Tiger Mk I has been the
subject of a bare metal, nut and bolt restoration,
which was started by the previous lady owner,
who acquired the car in 1989. She used the car as
a daily driver before embarking on a full bare
metal rebuild. Unfortunately she was unable to
finish the task and the current owner, who
acquired the car in 2002, completed the task by
2003. Finished in bright tartan red with black
vinyl seats, carpets, walnut dashboard and steering
wheel. BFO 424D further benefits from having a
factory steel hardtop, black soft top, stainless steel
twin exhaust and sits on the correct Minilite alloy
wheels. The engine was found to be in excellent
condition when the heads were removed so
241 A 1953 MG TD 1250, registration number machine work was kept to a minimum. The only
WSU 830, chassis number TD27558, engine change from standard specification was the fitting
number XPAGTD27916, Old English White. The of a Holley two barrel carburettor. The engine
TD was the fourth model in the T series of MG was duly installed into a detailed engine bay. The
sport cars, which started with the TA in 1936 and history file contains photographs of the car
finished with the TF in 1955. WSU 830, an stripped to bare metal, MOTs back to 2003, but
original right hand drive car was exported to unfortunately no earlier history. With AC Cobras
Canada and returned to these shores in 1988. The now well into six figures the Sunbeam Tiger offers
subject of a full and comprehensive restoration the enthusiast possibly a last chance to experience
which was completed in 2006 and the vendor has similar performance at a fraction of the cost. V5,

completed restoration. The beautiful Old English See illustrations £20000 - 25000
White coachwork is complemented by the re-
trimmed apple green leather seats, door cards,
dashboard and green carpets with bound edges.
The hood and side screens are re-trimmed in black
double duck. All of the chrome work has been re-
chromed, the engine and gearbox have been re-
built and the car sits on stove enamelled wheels
with new tyres. During the restoration the
decision was taken to install discreet modern
indicators front and rear and a battery cut out
switch to aid battery life. The vendor informs us
that the car drives beautifully since the completed
restoration and having covered only 300 miles
since will still require running in. The decision
has now been made to sell the car as the TD is
receiving little use and also so the vendor can
concentrate on his two MG A's. V5C, MOT to

242 A 1966 Sunbeam Tiger Mk I, registration

number BF0 424D, chassis number B9473691
HR0FE, engine number 4549F21KA, tartan red.
The Sunbeam Tiger was inspired by the AC
Cobra, the result of mating Ford's small block V8
with an AC Ace. Routes American Motor Inc.
saw the potential to do the same with the Alpine
and intrusted Carroll Shelby with the task. Carroll
duly produced a prototype incorporating the 4.2
litre (260 cu in) Windsor engine into the Alpine.
Most of the Alpine's basic layout was retained
with independent front suspension incorporating
coil springs and live rear axle supported by semi-
