1973 JAGUAR E-TYPE SERIES 3 V12 / SAME OWNER 30+ YEARS

* In current ownership for 40 years
* Dry stored for circa 20 years
* Highly original car ready for its next chapter
There can be few more remarkable long-term ownership stories than that of this 1973 Jaguar E-Type. Previous owner first became acquainted with the car in 1986, when, remarkably, he managed to acquire this then 13-year-old E-Type as his company car. Three years later, when he left the company, he managed to keep the Jaguar, beginning what has now become an extraordinary 37-year period of personal ownership.
Finished in classic Red over a Black interior and powered by Jaguar’s magnificent 5.3 litre V12, this 2+2 is equipped with the automatic transmission, arguably the ideal gearbox with which to enjoy the effortless torque and refinement of the V12 engine. Importantly, the car appears to remain notably original, retaining the character and presentation of a genuine, long-term owned E-Type rather than one that has been extensively modified or restored.
The Jaguar has spent a considerable period in dry storage, believed to have been as long as 20 years. It was briefly started in 2016, although some electrical issues were encountered at the time and the car subsequently remained in storage for another decade. It is now offered as a non-runner and will require recommissioning before returning to the road.
The fine layer of dust accumulated across the bodywork perhaps tells its own story, giving the impression of a car that has been peacefully stored in a dry barn rather than left to deteriorate in a damp environment. Beneath it sits an increasingly rare opportunity: a remarkably original V12 E-Type with an extraordinary 40-year connection to the same owner.
Previous owner undoubtedly miss the Jaguar enormously,

1957 BMW ISETTA “ VERY RARE FOUR WHEELER “

An early 1957, pre-sliding window, bubble-topped, 247cc Standard Model with just over 13,000 miles and much originality.

DESCRIPTION
* The pre-sliding window version of the 1957 BMW Isetta 250 is officially known as the Standard model (or Standardmodell in Germany). It is highly prized by collectors because it retains the original, purist 'bubble car' aesthetic heavily derived from the initial Italian Iso design before BMW modernised the bodywork
* Powered by a 247cc single-cylinder, four-stroke (from the R25/3 motorcycle) offering 12bhp through a three-speed and reverse gearbox
* This example was supplied new in early 1957 to J Sodergren of Grimsby, a general dealer, and UK registered on 01/04/1957
* Currently finished in Reseda Green with a green, white and yellow plaid covering on the seat. Much of the interior appears to be original with the dealers sticker and factory instruction decals still in place. The indicated mileage is 13,175
* With a period of inactivity behind it, some recommissioning is suggested prior to returning this characterful little BMW to regular road use
* Accompanied by an original BMW handbook, an early MOT Certificate and its original buff log book.
* A wonderfully charismatic and increasingly collectable early example of BMW’s iconic Isetta, offering an opportunity to recommission and enjoy one of the sought-after 247cc, bubble-windowed, Standard models

1969 MERCEDES 300 SEL 6.3 L EXTREMELY RARE UK RHD

Very Rare and highly sought after RHD W109 300SEL 6.3
Produced from 1968 to 1972, the Mercedes-Benz 300 SEL 6.3 is widely regarded as the worlds first true high-performance luxury saloon. By transplanting the massive 6.3-liter V8 engine from the flagship 600 limousine into the premium W109 saloon, one engineers dream created a 137 mph "Teutonic muscle car" that rivalled many sports cars of the era. The model claimed the title of the worlds fastest saloon car of its era and with just 6,500 built it was ultra rare in its day. Of those 6,500 just 700 were right hand drive and only a handful of those came to the U.K. So this RHD example is as rare as the proverbial hens teeth. The spec is as follows - 6.3-Liter M100 V8 - Four-Speed Automatic Transmission - Excellent Red Leather Upholstery - Air Conditioning - Power Windows and Sunroof - Becker Mexico Cassette Radio - Rebuilt Self-Levelling Suspension - Rebuilt braking system - Bundt Mexican Hat alloy wheels. This is a super solid car, with none of the usual corrosion issues associated with the model, having spent many decades in Florida. The leather interior is in excellent shape, as is the woodwork, while the bodywork is super straight and sound. The car has been equipped with a Magnaflow exhaust system with cross over and has very sound underside. Works by the last owner have included - Rebuilt air suspension system - rebuilt braking system: including discs, pads and callipers - new hoses - all fluids and filters - mechanical injection pump service - distributor cap, rotor and plugs - new tyres and spark plugs. This ultra rare RHD W109 SEL 6.3 is offered complete with factory build records and offers a new owner a blank canvas, from which they can create their own vision as a restomod or sympathetic cosmetic restoration. Those who know the 6.3 will realise what a rare opportunity this car represents. Just arrived.

1972 Jaguar E-Type Series 3 V12 2+2 Manual

* Only two previous owners, including myself
* No welding required
* Absolutely solid underneath
* Very good panel gaps
* Engine running beautifully

A rare opportunity to acquire a genuine, long-term ownership Jaguar E-Type Series 3 V12 2+2 Manual.
This car remained with its previous owner for 48 years and represents an honest, unmolested running project ready for its next chapter.
Registration: NWP 997K�Engine: 5.3-litre V12�Transmission: Manual�Status: Running project�Provenance: Single ownership from 1978 until recently acquired
The V12 E-Type remains one of the most effortless grand tourers ever produced. Whether you are looking for a sympathetic mechanical recommissioning or a full cosmetic restoration, this car provides an exceptionally solid foundation.
The engine starts first time and runs beautifully, with no unusual noises, knocks, or smoke. The car starts and drives, although the braking system will require attention as the vehicle has been in dry storage for a number of years. The handbrake is operational and suitable for loading and transportation purposes.
For safety reasons, I do not recommend driving the vehicle on public roads until the braking system has been fully inspected and repaired.
Finding an unrestored E-Type with this level of originality, structural integrity, and documented long-term ownership is becoming increasingly difficult. This represents a genuine opportunity for collectors, enthusiasts, and restorers alike.
Viewing highly recommended
