1955 Fiat 500c "Topolino" (Right hand drive)
A beautiful example of Italy’s peoples car that gained the nick name Topolino (Little Mouse). Introduced in 1949 the model C was introduced with a slightly restyled body and the same engine as the B. Our example is a very rare RHD car and was displayed in a museum for many years before joining the collection of a well known Pebble Beach winning Rolls Royce and Bentley restorer.

1961 Humber Super Snipe
Bought new by George Cawley in 1961 and wearing the registration GC 55, This magnificent Humber Super Snipe is considered to be the finest in the country having had just 2 owners and covering 40,000 miles from new. In 2024 after Mr Cawley’s passing the family sold the Humber to the mechanic George had entrusted to look after it for him during his ownership. The Humber comes with a super history file as you would expect including all handbooks, service books, Buff log book, 2 sets of original keys and Mr Cawleys “Order of the road” Certificate. This Humber is a great representative of the quality of this Great British car company and needs absolutely nothing. Perfect for next years show season and the Goodwood revival with its Brexton picnic set in the trunk.

"FOR SALE" 1974 NSU RO80. The NSU Ro 80 is a four-door, front-engine executive sedan manufactured and marketed by the West German firm NSU from 1967 until 1977
Noted for innovative, aerodynamic styling by Claus Luthe and a technologically advanced powertrain, the Ro 80 featured a 84 kW (113 bhp), 995 cc (60.7 cu in) twin-rotor Wankel engine driving the front wheels through a semi-automatic transmission with an innovative vacuum-operated clutch system.
The Ro 80 was voted Car of the Year for 1968[2] and 37,398 units were manufactured over a ten-year production run, all in a single generation.
Other technological features of the Ro 80, aside from the powertrain, were the four-wheel ATE Dunlop disc brakes, which were generally only featured on expensive sports or luxury saloon cars. The front brakes were mounted inboard, reducing the unsprung weight. The suspension was independent on all four wheels, with MacPherson struts at the front and semi-trailing arm suspension at the rear, both of which are space-saving designs commonly used today. Power-assisted ZF rack and pinion steering was used, again foreshadowing more recent designs.
The car featured an automatic clutch which was commonly described as a three-speed semi-automatic gearbox: there was no clutch pedal, but instead, touching the gear lever k**b operated an internal electric switch that operated a vacuum system which disengaged the clutch. The gear lever itself then could be moved through a standard "H-pattern" gate.
The styling, by Claus Luthe who was head of design at NSU and later BMW, was considered very modern at the time; the Ro 80 has been part of many gallery exhibits of modern industrial design. The large glass area foreshadowed the 1970s designs such as Citroën's. The shape was also slippery, with a drag coefficient of 0.355 (very low for the era). This allowed for a top speed of 180 km/h (112 mph). Indeed, comparisons have been drawn between the design of the Ro 80 and the aerodynamic 1982 Audi 100 built in the same factory some 15 years later.
Our truly wonderful RO 80 has covered 71,000 miles and has been owned by an engineer with a penchant for quirky and mechanically interesting vehicles. In his ownership the RO 80 was gone through to make sure it was mechanically perfect with everything working and full respray under taken in its original hue.

1935 Auburn Speedster (Reproduction)
Celebrity owned Auburn 876 Boattail Speedster tribute, built by Campbell Enterprises and Custom Classics using a California Custom Coach company body, who bought the rights of the original Auburn design drawings, meaning the dimensions and look are correct.
The sweeping Boattail body features Power Assisted Steering, Power Brakes, full weather gear and of course a 1972-3 Ford 7.0-litre V8 mated to an automatic transmission, so no shortage of V8 power and noise!

1970 Bentley "T" Series MPW drop head coupe. An extremely rare and desirable automobile, in fact chassis DBH8241 is believed to be 1 of just 4 produced in 1970. Ordered by Mr S.W. Mitchell in 1969 through Mead Cockshoot Ltd, as well as numerous special features Mr Mitchell requested his Bentley be finished in Caribbean Blue with Dark Blue leather which it still retains to this day, testament to the maintenance and love this elegant machine has received throughout its life. The History file is comprehensive and contains bills from the 70's up to the present day, build sheets, all the original handbooks and recent expenditure amounting to £70,000!

1980 Bentley T2
Very late example of the 558 built.

1980 Bentley T2, presented in Silver Sand with Brown Leather Interior, and Brown carpets.
Bentley only produced 558 of the T2 Series and very few fine examples are now available. This car is one of the last T2’s made as production ended in 1980.
Originally sold by Mann Egerton of London W1X on 22nd May 1980, it was regularly serviced, as showing in the stamped Service Book up to 2008, when the car was put into dry storage.
Our client purchased the car on 6th April 2022 and subsequently has spent over £21, 000 to recommission the vehicle to bring it back into reliable use.
Although the vehicle is registered as Historic, the car has a current MOT which runs to 26th July 2024. As the car is over 40 years old, it does not need to have an MOT, and it is both Road Tax and ULEZ exempt.
The car has 4 previous owners and comes with a full service history and, therefore, we can confirm that the vehicle has a genuine low mileage of less than 60, 000. A truly fine example.

1930 Lincoln Model L
Dual Cowl Phaeton
Matching numbers
Quality older restoration
Long term ownership

This matching numbers 1930 Model L truly is American engineering at its finest, the quiet, smooth and powerful engine pulls you along the road with ease, the drive becomes better mile by mile. The gear change is light and the brakes have more than enough stopping power.
Useful modifications including an uprated dual venturi downdraft carburettor and an electric fuel pump have been added to aid on long journeys, and all original components come with the car. This powerful V8 is certainly set up and ready for touring, the downdraft carburettor providing comparable performance to the 120hp V-8 engined successor Model K introduced in 1931.
This car has two desirable Lincoln upgrades - a vacuum brake servo, introduced in the Model K in 1931 and offered as a retrofit to Model L customers, and the desirable Model K Gemmer steering.
The Lincoln Type 176b Dual Cowl coachwork is beautifully designed, you really can appreciate the aesthetics of the shape and body lines from every angle. The high quality paint work is finished in a two-tone brown, this is complimented by the light yellow coachline and yellow painted wire wheels. There are, of course white wall tyres fitted and high quality chrome fixtures all around.
The interior is completed in tan leather to a high standard, with four individual seats, there are lockable door pockets and also lockable solid wood compartments to the rear. The exterior has fender mounted dual spare wheels. The roof is in good condition throughout, comes with its roof ‘top boot’, and there are also detachable side screens, making this Model L fully weather proof.

1926 Sunbeam 3 Litre Super Sports
Last owner since 1990
Extensively used on rallies and tours in the U.K and Europe.
Past winner of the Paris/Vichy and Paris Deauville rallies and also past winners the concours d’Etat
maintained to a high standard with a full service history
The Wolverhampton based Sunbeam Motorcar Company traded from 1899-1935. During that short 36 year period they produced some of the most important and well engineered motorcars ever to be designed and built in Great Britain. These included not only magnificent Edwardian tourers and limousines, but from 1910-1930 some outstanding racing cars, and even Land Speed Record cars.
In 1910 their flamboyant chief designer, Louis Coatalen a keen racing driver and Land Speed Record enthusiast, was said to have told W.O. Bentley “racing improves the breed”.
Although Bentley was the British marque that came to dominate Le Mans in the 1920's it is often forgotten that Chassagne and Davis achieved second place in the 1925 race driving a Sunbeam 3 Litre Super-Sports. In fact these cars were built with a view to race at Le Mans. The Sunbeam Super-Sports also known as a 3 Litre twin cam was marginally quicker that the obvious comparison, the Bentley 3 Litre, and had better brakes and a easier gearbox! The chassis was often said to be more flexible although on this particular car the chassis has been strengthened to give it a more robust feel on the road with international rallying in mind. Other "mods" include a high ratio crown wheel and pinion, and a new cylinder block (the original has been retained), and full flow filtration with a modern oil filter.
These rare cars are really exciting to drive. The free revving 6 cylinder twin overhead cam dry sump engine was revolutionary in its day and just looking under the bonnet reveals an engineering masterpiece.In fact the engine is really a copy of the Fiat 3 Litre Grand Prix engine designed by Vincenzo Bertarione and Walter Becchia. High quality fittings and finish all combine to make a stunning vintage motorcar with real performance.
Made in 1926 this car carries its original factory tourer coachwork. It has been the subject of a full rebuild in the 70's including chassis strengthening, body rebuild with new frame up to the scuttle which is covered in aluminium. In 1990 a new engine block was installed with new con rods and pistons. Since then a full service history is available of which most work has been undertaken by Holcombe Engineering. In recent years it has been fitted with a new radiator core and and last year a new crown wheel and pinion.
since then it has been extensively used on rally and tours and is a veteran of several European rallies including the Paris/Vichy and the Paris/Deauville. It is a past winner of the Concours d' Etat.
