Jaguar XK140 FHC

 

1955 Jaguar XK140 fhc lhd

Delivered new to Florida and repatriated in 1989 as a sound car. It was restored very nicely by a doctor from whom I bought it in 2001. It was subsequently purchased by a retired accountant to use in Historic rallies. Relatively standard at first the car was fully rebuilt and upgraded within FIA parameters between 2005 and 2008. The hugely detailed files with this car reveal the thorough approach taken to prepare this super XK from the bare chassis up . It features a rollcage, bucket seats,full harness belts,rebuilt engine with gas flowed head,2" SUs,wide blade rods, balanced crank, six branch manifold, electric fan and water pump, D type cams, comp overdrive,Facet pumps, alloy rad and expansion tank, 13 row oil cooler and uprated suspension with disc brakes up front. And a lot more !

FIA Historic Regularity Rally Car Pass [ HGT/GTS, Cat "E" 1947-1961].2003 Winter Trial,Three Castles,Scottish Malts,Classic Marathon, 2004 Winter Trial[ Holland to Monte Carlo],Classic Marathon [Germany,Denmark, Norway],2005 Cape to Cape, 2008 Classic Marathon [Belgium to Cortina,Italy],2009 Three Castles,2010 Classic Mountain Challenge [Evian les Bains to Monte Carlo].

Choice of wheels and tyres.

Whilst the car is set up for rallying it could easily be adapted for track use but it is also super on the road. The coachwork is in very good order and the chrome is all there and in very good condition. The cost of preparing an XK to this standard is way in excess of the asking price.

£49950.

Jaguar Mk1 2.4

1959 MK1 2.4 Auto

Delivered new in may 1959 by Henlys to Mr and Mrs Henry Collins of Surrey who retained it till 1974 when it was bought by Jaguar collector Peter Spackman at about 48000 miles. He had a straight port head and 2" SUs fitted by AWB Motors, the legendary MK1 racer Albert Betts. His famous MK1 is seen regularly at Goodwood in the capable hands of Historic racer, Justin Law.

Spackman also had the car converted to wire wheels and with radials it handles really well. It has disc brakes all round and has automatic transmission with the Intermediate speed hold which helps to give the car a surprisingly lively performance and really good mid range acceleration. It is finished in the original Pearl Grey with super original dark blue hide,exceptional woodwork and has a period Radiomobile fitted.It has a comprehensive history file with original buff logbook,the invoice from Henlys ,bills back to 1959 and the handbook.With only three fastidious owners from new and low mileage this is a rather special MK1. £ 19950.

Jaguar MK7

1954 MK7 mod

Sold new in march 1954 by Appleyards [Bradford] and retained by the Frances family until 1983 by which time it had covered 18800 miles from new.[Letter in the history file from Mrs.Frances confirming the mileage and that "all parts and bodywork are original]. It is a late MK V11 as distinct from a V11 M and is thus very rare with overdrive. It has all the lovely early features including the tripod headlamps [shared with the 120], built in foglamps, small back light units and semaphore indicators. In the interests of safety it has flashers suspended below the bumpers which are easily removed. Needless to say it has the wonderful factory sliding sunroof and the toolkits in the doors.

The history is well documented and shows that it has been domiciled in Germany, Hong Kong, Spain and latterly Warwickshire in a Jaguar connoisseur's collection. In his 7 year ownership the car has been sensitively used and maintained and the car has now covered 23.300 miles from new. The coachwork is ruler straight and in magnificent order with superb door gaps the like of which are seldom seen on restored cars. The interior is equally good and completely original even down to the carpets and headlining ! In short this is truly exceptional specimen with a brisk turn of speed and overdrive for relaxed cruising at 80 plus [where legal] . £29950.

23000 miles from new with well documented history.

This splendid Doctors Coupe with double Dickey seat sports beautiful coachwork by Charlesworth and is amazingly original even down to the black leather hood. It is believed to be the sole surviving 13.9 out of a total of only about 30 or so Calcotts worldwide and the Charlesworth body is very rare, possibly unique.The 2.1 litre engine and 4 speed gearbox combine to give this respected Coventry product a spritely performance. The history file contains fascinating correspondence,old photographs,copies of brochures and road tests and a buff logbook showing one owner from 1926 -1966 and one from 1966 -2011.

1929 MG 18/80 Tourer

 

1929 18/80 Mk1 Tourer

 

1929 MG 18/80 MK1 Tourer.This exceedingly rare MG is one of only 32 known mk1s and has well documented history back to the thirties. The 2 1/2 litre six delivers smooth and effortless performance which is unsurprising as MG were aiming at the Alvis ,Bentley and the Lagonda market with the 18/80.In 84 years the car is thought to have had a mere five owners, four of them long term. Before the war it was owned by Brooklands motor cycle racer, Dr Joe Bayley who was reunited with the car in 1998 at the tender age of ninety ! There are many wonderful photos of the car in the files showing it as delivered as a two seater and subsequently with the original four seater Carbodies coachwork which was rescued from Barkus's Scrapyard in 1946 by vintage MG guru,Morgan Marshall and fitted years later by a subsequent owner of UU 5737. Today the car is a delightfully usable, whilst slightly" oily rag ,"machine ideal for VSCC trialling or other events and is rather good value when compared with vintage Lagondas. £69500.

1969 Rolls Royce - Mulliner Park Ward 2 Door

 

1969 Mulliner Park Ward 2 door.

This is a really superb example supplied new by Jack Barclays to a well healed resident of Lowndes Square, London who kept it till 1978 despite regular attempts by Barclays to sell him a new Rolls every year !

The wonderful and complete history from new attests to careful maintenance since by the four subsequent owners and the file contains the original order,sales invoice.warranty card and copies of old log books,V5s and MOT certificates and of course service invoices . It also has the service books and fascinating correspondence with Jack Barclays and Rolls Royce . The car was colour changed many years ago from Coffee Bean Brown to Midnight blue and is in lovely order straight coachwork, excellent chrome and superb interior.

The car is everything one would hope for in a low mileage [83000], well documented and maintained Rolls Royce.

£22500.
