Registration No: EWB 306H Chassis No: GCN17279 MOT: June 2025Desirable ‘home market’ RHD examplePresents in its original colour scheme of Tartan Red with a Black interior and a Black hoodSupplied new by Kennings Ltd of SheffieldLavished with an extensive restoration in 2008 with under 4,000 miles sinceOffered with a history file including the BMIHT Heritage CertificateIntended as a flagship sportscar to replace the Austin-Healey 3000, the MGC was introduced in autumn 1967. Based around the same two-door monocoque bodyshell as the humble MGB (albeit with a substantially altered engine bay and floorpan), the newcomer was powered by a 2912cc OHV straight-six engine allied to either four-speed manual plus overdrive or three-speed automatic transmission. Equipped with new torsion-bar independent front suspension, telescopic shock absorbers and lower geared rack and pinion steering, it was visually distinguished by a 'power bulge' bonnet and taller 15-inch wheels. While early road tests criticised the car's 'nose heavy' handling later reports were far kinder (which suggests that Abingdon's engineers quickly overcame the larger powerplant's extra mass). With some 145bhp and 170lbft of torque on tap, the model was reputedly capable of 120mph. Too readily confused with the four-cylinder MGB, it was dropped in 1969 after just 4,544 Roadsters and 4,458 GTs had allegedly been made. Though, over fifty-five years on, the MGC's lack of period sales success has only made it more collectible.Chassis ‘GCN17279’ was manufactured on the 22nd of April 1969, being dispatched on the 5th of May to Kennings Limited of Sheffield (of Sir George Kenning). Finished from the factory Tartan Red paintwork with a Black interior and a Black hood, this is pleasingly the colour scheme that the MG is presented in today, and it was specified with the factory with fitted equipment of wire wheels and a tonneau cover. The MG is a desirable matching chassis and engine numbers example and is known to have been lavished with an extensive restoration which was completed in 2008, with less than 4,000 miles covered since. The Roadsters restoration included a full bodywork renovation and repainting; engine overhaul utilising an unleaded head, carburettor refresh and balanced crank; new overdrive gearbox; stainless steel exhaust; re-cored radiator; new wire wheels; and brake refresh, as well as much more.Acquired by the vendor in 2018 as a retirement gift to himself from MG specialist Former Glory (for some £25,000), the MG has since been used locally before a change in health dictates sale. Throughout his ownership, ‘EWB 306H’ has been well maintained with expenditure surpassing £3,400. The improvements and maintenance including a full service in 2023; new engine and water hoses in 2022; fitment of electronic ignition, suspension improvement, attention to the brakes, new wheel bearings, and a refresh of the cooling equipment all in 2019, amongst much more. Running well during the recent photography session with good oil pressure, the MG is offered with a history file that contains the BMIHT Heritage Certificate, a large collection of invoices for the restoration and vendor's work, a collection of MOTs back to 1977, restoration images, and a current V5C document.A well-maintained and very nicely presented example of the MGC, this example boasts being a home market, original right-hand drive example with matching chassis and engine numbers, and being presented in its original colour scheme!

Registration No: 264 PPO Chassis No: TS63903 MOT: ExemptA 'home market' car registered in West Sussex on January 1st 1960The subject of an extensive past restoration by marque specialist Racetorations and still highly presentableOffered for sale with extensive history file and hardtopDue to be driven 160 miles to the saleFinal evolution of the Triumph TR2/TR3 sportscar line (save for the American market TR3B), the TR3A was introduced in September 1957. Its tough boxed section chassis featured independent coil and wishbone front suspension, a leaf sprung 'live' rear axle and disc / drum brakes. Fitted with a 1991cc four-cylinder OHV unit developing some 104bhp and 117lbft of torque, it was reputedly capable of 110mph. A great sales success on both sides of the Atlantic, the model provided a rather more visceral alternative to its MG and Jaguar competition. Great fun to drive, the ‘sidescreen TRs’ have long enjoyed a keen following among enthusiasts. Although, finding a 'home market' example can be a challenge given that just 1,896 of the 58,236 cars made remained in the UK. Assembled by its previous (eighth) keeper, a British aerospace engineer, this rare, ‘home market’ TR3A comes with one of the most voluminous history files we have ever encountered. Specified with a heater, hardtop and Michelin X tyres, the Roadster was despatched from the Works on 15th December 1959 to S. Hicks & Son of Truro. Reallocated to a Sussex-based Standard Triumph dealership, it was supplied new to a Mr Clifford of Worthing. Thereafter, the nominal 2+2-seater is known to have belonged to K.S. Sparling, A.I. Graham, J. Carlton, Racetorations, R.A. Forsyth, W.R. Washbourne and D.J. Lee before entering the current custodianship during 2023. Having been prepared for road rallies by marque specialist Racetoraions some thirty years earlier at Mr Carlton’s behest, the TR3A had its original engine overhauled and enlarged (87mm bore), suspension and brakes uprated and a TR4 all-synchromesh gearbox with overdrive installed. A Kenlowe fan and stainless steel exhaust were added too, the recorded mileage at the time being a believed genuine 47,750 or so. Subsequent owner Mr Forsyth then tasked the same company with carrying out a bare metal bodywork restoration plus an interior re-trim and sundry re-chroming etc in 1995. Showing 60,086 miles when bought by Mr Lee, he kept the Triumph for the next sixteen years using it on numerous Mendip Classic Tours and Chipping Sodbury Classic Runs. As well as routine maintenance, he treated the Roadster to a new crank seal, facet fuel pump, hi-torque starter motor and brake hoses etc. Starting readily and running well during our recent photography session, ‘264 PPO’ has some minor blemishes but remains, to our eyes, highly presentable. Enjoyed on a run to the Goodwood Revival last year and due to be driven some 160 miles to IWM Duxford, this delightful TR3A is thought to have covered a mere 68,000 miles from new. Offered for sale with V5C Registration Document, Heritage Certificate, hardtop, weather equipment and history file.

Registration No: TKM 968X Chassis No: WBAEC4202C5585976 MOT: ExemptJust 70,000 miles from newDesirable UK example, supplied by L&C Auto Services, BMW House of Tunbridge WellsBenefiting from some £4,250 worth of expenditure in 2021-2022Offered with a large history file including the original owners handbook and stamped service bookSuccessor to the race-proven (E9) 3.0CS/CSi high-performance sports coupes, the 6-series was introduced in August 1976. More forgiving than its predecessors, it utilised a modified version of the (E12) 5-series saloon platform equipped with all-round independent suspension and powerful disc brakes. A natural rival to the 928 and XJS, the four-seater 6-series proved more capacious than the Porsche and sportier than the Jaguar. Immediately recognisable thanks to its distinctive 'shark nose' frontal styling and thin pillared glasshouse it boasts real road presence. An impression backed up by the various versions of BMW's mighty M30, SOHC straight-six engine fitted throughout the range. Second only to the BMW Motorsport tuned M6 version, the 635CSi's 3430cc unit developed some 216bhp and 232lbft of torque (outputs that were reputedly sufficient to propel it from 0-60mph in 8.4 seconds and on to 135mph).Manufactured in 1981, the 635 CSi offered was supplied new to the United Kingdom via L&C Auto Services, BMW House of Tunbridge Wells, being first registered on the 21st of November that year. Finished from new in Cosmos Blue paintwork with Black leather interior upholstery and features the automatic transmission which the vendor informs is very smooth. The vendor rates ‘TKM 968X’ as ‘very good’ in regard to bodywork, paintwork, engine, gearbox, electrical equipment, and interior trim. Offered now with just 70,000 miles on the odometer, the BMW has been in the current registered ownership since 2022. Benefitting from over £6,000 worth of expenditure since 2018, the CSi received reconditioned brake calipers, new crank sensor, water pump, and exhaust fixings in 2018; a full service, new radiator, and new fuel and brake hoses in 2021; and new thermostat and housing and re-wired electric fan in 2022. Offered with a large history file that contains the stamped service book, owner’s information, handbook, a collection of invoices and previous MOTs, and a current V5C document.

Registration No: BHY 906H Chassis No: 1R27431 MOT: March 2026Treated to an exhaustive, 2,500-hour restoration by the vendor, a Licensed Aircraft Engineer, in 2022Invoices on file totalling c.£30,000 for replacement parts and specialist services alonePresents beautifully having covered just 1,000 post-refurbishment milesMatching numbers exampleAccompanied by a hardback book which pictorially documents every stage of the restoration in detailOffered with a history file including the Jaguar Heritage CertificateAt launch the Malcolm Sayer-penned E-Type was the fastest production car of its time – its 3.8-litre straight six engine allowing a 0-60mph acceleration time of a whisker over seven seconds and a top speed of circa 150mph. Despite this, the engine size was increased from 3.8 to 4.2-litres in October 1964 and, with the change, came a sweeter all-synchromesh gearbox, better brakes and more comfortable seats. Introduced in August 1968, the Series II version of Jaguar’s immortal E-Type sported redesigned bumpers and lights. Less noticeable was its enlarged front air intake which in conjunction with dual cooling fans made the newcomer better behaved in hot weather and heavy traffic. With its 4235cc DOHC straight-six engine developing a quoted 265bhp/283lbft, the Jaguar was reputedly capable of nearly 150mph and 0-60mph in 7.5 seconds. Available in open two-seater, fixed-head two-seater and fixed-head 2+2-seater guises, the American market accounted for the bulk of Series II production, with the fixed-head two-seater being the rarest of the three variants.Factory finished in Regency Red with Beige leather upholstery, the same combination it pleasingly sports today, chassis ‘1R27431’ was dispatched from Browns Lane to distributor British Leyland, New York on 12th February 1970. Spending its early life in Arizona (with the corresponding registration plates remaining on file), the E-Type is reputed to suffered sandstorm damage whilst being driven to Northern California in 1974. Despite the paintwork being refreshed and a new windscreen fitted, the E-Type was placed into storage where it remained for the subsequent c.40 years. Re-discovered in 2014, the E-Type was repatriated to the United Kingdom in 2019 and shortly after acquired by the vendor, a licensed aircraft engineer, having been advertised as a "never been welded" example with a recorded mileage of 39,000.The vendor reports that the engine was running (albeit poorly), and the clutch release bearing had failed. Transported to his aircraft engineering facility, a comprehensive assessment of the car's condition was carried out, and remarkably, the seller informs us that no evidence of repaired corrosion was found anywhere in the body-shell or doors, with all the floor and footwell panels being original. The only perforations discovered were two small areas on the edge of both footwells with repairs grafted in. The shell was sent to RP Automotive for a full bare metal repaint, with the engine frames bead blasted, primed and painted in their original colour before re-fitting. All frame mounting points on the bulkhead were inspected and deemed completely corrosion-free. When the repaint was completed all box sections and closed panels including doors were injected with aviation anti-corrosion fluid and, although the original underseal was revealed to be almost entirely in excellent condition, a coat of Raptor two-pack bed liner was added to the car's underside. A new wiring loom to the original specification was installed and the Jaguar converted to right-hand drive including a new steering rack, with windscreen wipers also converted to UK-specification. The factory-fitted engine was entrusted to Scholar Engineering of Diss where it benefited from a re-ground crankshaft, new cylinder liners, new oil pump, modified rear crank seal, new timing chains and tensioners, core plugs, and much more. The cylinder head overhaul included hardened valve seats, new camshaft buckets, bearings, and pressure testing, etc, with the block and head being lightly skimmed. A new water pump, thermostat, rejuvenated starter and alternator, spin-on oil filter conversion, a new inlet manifold, and new triple SU carburettors were all fitted, as well as uprated Acu-Spark electronic ignition. The gearbox internals were inspected and judged to be in good condition, with the input and output shaft seals and speedo drive gear renewed. Further provided with a new stainless steel exhaust system, the suspension was inspected and refreshed with four new shock absorbers and springs, four driveshaft and prop shaft UJs replaced, and the front suspension components removed, bead blasted, and re-painted. The wheel bearings, anti-roll bar bushes, and handbrake pads were all renewed too. The independent rear suspension cradle was re-fitted with new trailing arm bushes and mountings. The brake system was provided with a full overhaul including a new master cylinder and servo unit, new stainless steel calliper pistons, seals, brake pads and four new discs, as well as new flexible hoses together with copper-based hard lines fitted front and rear. Finally, four new spoked chrome wire wheels, spinners and tyres were installed. A complete interior re-trim was carried out by Howard Sands of Stonham Suffolk, with the excellent upholstery and fittings supplied by Aldridges Coventry Ltd made to original Jaguar specification and materials. The restoration encompassed extensive further new parts, with some of the notable ones including an overhauled heater system, new windscreen washer assembly, new radio console/fascia with period Radiomobile push button radio, and much more! With invoices on file for c.£30,000 in parts and specialist services alone, the aircraft engineer vendor has devoted some 2,500 hours to the exhaustive project, with the end product being an excellently presented example, above and beyond many restorations. A matching numbers example, chassis ‘1R27431’ is accompanied to the sale by a large history file that includes a hardback book which documents pictorially every stage of the restoration in detail, the Jaguar Heritage Certificate, aforementioned restoration invoices, and a current V5C document. Completing just 1,000 post-restoration miles so now showing a believed genuine 40,000 miles on the odometer, the vendor also comments that the engine and gearbox wear levels when stripped were indicative of the mileage being genuine. Starting readily and both running and driving well during our recent photography session, this notably nicely restored E-Type is not one to overlook if you are in the market for an excellently restored example. This lot is offered with a no advisory MOT certificate until March 2026. For more information, please contact: Paul Cheetham paul.cheetham@handh.co.uk 07538 667452

Registration No: N/A Chassis No: 9489 MOT: N/AAn incredibly competitive full-blooded single-seater racing machine, described by many as an 'ERA - eater'Built in the mid 70s as a collaboration between Paul Holdsworth, the famed Louis Giron and Rod JolleyFitted with a Supercharged 4.3 Litre Speed 25 power unit developed and built by the late Louis Giron of ex-Bugatti fameAluminium single-seater body expertly crafted by owner Rod Jolley - internationally respected coachbuilderEligible for several historic racing events such as within the VSCCIt is without doubt that the Alvis Speed 20 caused a sensation when previewed in October 1931 and eventually released to the public early the following year. Inspired by Donald Healey's Monte Carlo Rally-winning Invicta S-type, the Speed 20 was the brainchild of marque draughtsman Arthur Varney. The `double dropped' chassis frame was fabricated from high tensile carbon sheet steel and enjoyed a notably low centre of gravity. The newcomer was equipped with all-round semi-elliptic leaf-sprung suspension, a Marles Weller steering box and cable-operated 14-inch drum brakes.Fast forward some fourty years after the Speed 20's release, and Rod Jolley, who by trade is a master coachbuilder responsible for the restoration and rebodying of some of the finest motor cars in the world, had a brainwave to create a pre-war racing Alvis which would give the ERA's a run for their money on the circuit. Teaming up with his friend Paul Holdsworth who financially backed the project provided Rod completed the physical work, a plan was drawn up to use a Speed 20 chassis with a supercharged Speed 25 engine fitted with a 4.3 Litre cylinder block and head. Rod had already used famed Belgian engineer, Louis Giron to build a 4.3 Litre engine for a road car which he had used on track, so therefore Giron was approached again to help develop an engine that would be fitted with a Godfrey Marshall blower and ran on Methanol. Giron himself was a master engineer and his apprenticeship had taken place at Bugatti where he had helped to construct the 1924 Grand Prix car. He then moved to England in the 1930's, setting up his own business as a motor engineer and after a long career he eventually became the technical lead at the Beaulieu National Motor Museum. Giron became very interested in the whole project and dedicated much of his time to helping Rod get the car together. In Rod's own words:"I met Louis Giron, the famous Belgian engineer who came over to the UK in the 1930's before fully settling in 1939 with his family, to escape the war, or so he hoped.He was best known for his work with GP Bugattis and Maseratis but was also a pretty handy racing driver in his day.In his later years he worked at the National Motor Museum as their chief technical engineer, which is where I met him, frequently visiting the museum for whom I carried out various coachbuilding tasks.We became firm friends and when I told him that I wanted to build and develop a competitive Alvis racing car, he immediately offered his help, which was very welcome because my knowledge of supercharging and methanol at that time, was almost zero, but I learned pretty quickly!In the end, Louis did most of the machining and together we built the engine, but he also had major input in the chassis setup. I built a body, based loosely on a GP Mercedes / Alfetta 158. The car still proudly wears the rev counter from Louis' dynamometer, which he kindly donated to the project."And thus was formed what became the Giron-Alvis Special. During its first time out testing, Rod was at the wheel and Giron was in attendance to keep an eye on the mechanics of the car, and it was initially presented badge-less. Rod recounted that a particularly proud moment came when he stuck the bespoke enamel badge on the radiator cowling and surprised his friend who is said to have been very moved by the occasion.It would take some five years to develop the car enough to achieve the magic combination of reliability and speed, which would ultimately lead to some thirty years of success. Rod has advised that the ultimate specification is as follows:The engine is fitted with a billet steel crank and con rods, shell bearings, Mahle forged pistons, high lift cam and an updated oil pump. This was mated to a very desirable close-ratio Silver Crest gearbox with straight-cut gears and an uprated main-shaft for strength. Finally, the Godfrey Marshal supercharger was fitted with lightweight steel rotors which were machined from solid billets as they were found to be much lighter than the original aluminium ones. The supercharger is currently set to a low boost configuration yet develops some 300hp and 300ft/Lbs of torque, but Rod estimates that reconfiguring it to high-boost format should develop an extra 100hp – a rather frightening thought given how quick the car currently is!During fifty years of ownership, the Giron-Alvis has turned heads and become a highly regarded car, if not just for its race wins (in many cases in post-war classes!) but also for its genuine good looks thanks to Rod’s skilled coach working. Today, the single seater still appears to be in exceptional condition, testament to the ongoing maintenance schedule that has been kept up. In fact, in preparation for sale, it was noted that one cylinder had lost compression, so Rod immediately stripped the cylinder head from the car to discover a loose valve seat which was immediately taken to the engineers to be re-machined. We can confirm that the car when inspected was running very well indeed and Rod confirms that it is in ‘excellent’ order all round.Due to Rod’s advancing years and limited time to enjoy all the cars in his collection, he now feels that it is time to part company with this machine which has become a faithful old friend and is sure that it will bring a lot of joy to any prospective new owner. Rod has advised that some prep will be required to get it back out and competitive, but this is to be expected with any historic racing car and is all part of the fun.So, if you have been considering getting into pre-war racing and want to be genuinely competitive then surely the Giron-Alvis is one to be considered? Both beautiful and competitive, the modest estimate does not get close to the cost outlay to build a machine of this calibre today, and especially not with the expertise onboard to get it quite as right.
