A lengthy history traces the car's past allowing us to discover just how much love has been lavished on this Series 1. Finished in the rare Rover colour of Burnt Grey (sort of grey-brown) with contrasting Toledo Red leather, she is an absolute delight. And here is the added bonus. She ...

Picture of 1971 AUSTIN MINI VAN - RESTORED BEAUTIFULLY, 1 FAMILY OWNED! - SOLD

HERE is a 1971 Austin Mini van 850cc, complete with sliding windows and magic wand gear shift. SHE IS RED. RED AS RED CAN BE. AS RED AS A TOMATO. NO HINT OF ORANGE AS PER MY PHOTOS!

Granted, as you can see, she has had her metal side panels removed and windows fitted. This conversion, along with a perfectly designed pop-up rear seat arrangement, has been done with great expertise. However, ...

Picture of 1964 MG MIDGET MARK II - SUPER LITTLE DRIVER, BONNY THING! - SOLD

THIS is a 1964 MG Midget Mark II and therefore comes with the tried and tested 1098cc twin carb unit. A bonny little thing in mid-green, there is a great deal of true Brit sports car about her. Really sound underneath and a lovely driver aided by a rasping stainless steel exhaust. The previous owner bought her six years ago when she had just four former keepers to her name. Prior to his purchase, ...

Picture of 1968 MG MIDGET - AMAZING PROVENANCE, STILL GREAT CAR TODAY! - SOLD

THIS early Mark III Midget comes with fascinating history. Basically, around 40 years ago, she was THE best Spridget in the UK winning multiple National MG Concours Trophies. There is plenty to read about her in the enormous history file and she is also featured as a concours Midget in the book Spridgets by Chris Harvey.

With an engine rebuilt in 1986 to fast road spec with a stage 2 ...

Picture of 1973 MG MIDGET RWA - DRY STORED 10 YEARS, ABSOLUTE BARGAIN! - SOLD

THIS Midget gem has been dry stored for the past decade while residing with the same owner. It looks as though she bought the car and covered about 300 miles with her before locking her away. She has just emerged from hibernation this week and, although naturally enough the brakes will need going through, she starts and drives through he gears absolutely fine. She has had just three owners in the ...

Picture of 1971 RELIANT SCIMITAR - FRESH OUT OF LONG TIME STORAGE! - SOLD

HERE is a 1971 Reliant Scimitar 3-litre V6. She has recently emerged from long term storage, looks to be sound underneath, starts and drives through the gears. Sounds really healthy too. Still a great looking car to say that it came off a 1960s drawing board. Excellent interior although I guess those front seats are not standard. There is a receipt dated 1993 from Cobra Automotive seats, and I would ...

Picture of 1966 MG MIDGET MARK II - VERY PRETTY WITH ALL EARLY FEATURES - SOLD

HERE is a 1966 MG Midget Mark II with all the early sports car goodies lost on later models such as chrome strips all over the place, proper sports car seats, banjo-style steering wheel, 1098cc twin carb unit, big bumpers and fold away hood.

The Mark II still looks every inch the true Brit 2-seater sports car today and this example is a little gem. Goes like the clappers and is a pre ...

Picture of 1976 TRIUMPH SPITFIRE V - RARE JAVA GREEN, LAST OWNER 28 YRS - SOLD

I REALLY do like the Spitfire V in Java Green. Not so much the Stag, but certainly the smaller model! This little gem has been owned by a motor mechanic for the past 28 years and he has kept on top of everything to such an extent that this super Spitfire has the most amazing MoT history. She has passed every year and not picked up a single advisory in the past 15 years! Very nice panels and paint. ...

Picture of 1926 BUICK STANDARD SIX TOURER - MEGA RARE MODEL IN RHD! - SOLD

AMERICA must have been way ahead of us with their motor car manufacturing back in the roaring 20s. Here is a Buick - top of the tree marque back then - Standard Six Tourer and the straight-6 unit is actually an overhead valve engine. We were still plodding on here with some Ford side valve engines some 35 years later!

She is a real gem is this proud old girl. Straight out of Bonny and ...

Picture of 1957 LAND ROVER SERIES 1 - BARN FIND, PROJECT, 7K MILES! - SOLD

WELL, this old girl emerged from darkness for the first time in God knows how many years last week and yesterday she found her way to me. Nice of her I thought. She is a 1957 swb Landie with the correct 2 litre petrol engine. I can't tell you how long ago it is since she was locked away.

There is an old 1960s style log book (V5) with her and an old style MoT certificate from 1978 ...

Picture of 1958 SUNBEAM RAPIER SERIES II - RARE PLUS RALLY HISTORY! - SOLD

THIS is a really rare early Rapier. A Series II 1500cc twin-carb with so many early features such as the stunning sports dashboard and steering wheel, matching two-tone seats and of course the biggest rear fins ever to feature on any Sunbeam Rapier from Series 1 to V.

Now, what we also have here is some genuine classic rallying history. This car has real provenance. Driven by Terry Schraider ...

Picture of 1973 CLAN CRUSADER - MEGA RARE BRITISH SPORTS CAR, LOVELY! - SOLD

THIS DELIGHTFUL CLAN CRUSADER IS RED. REPEAT RED. NOT ORANGE WHICH MY PHOTOS TEND TO SHOW!

HERE is my first ever Clan Crusader. It has taken me since 1971 to actually own one and now, here it is. The Clan Motor Company was founded in 1971 by two former Lotus engineers who wanted to design and build their own lightweight sports car. Production began in 1971 when Washington Development ...

Picture of 1971 1961 AUSTIN A60 HALF-TON PICK-UP. MEGA RARE FIND! - SOLD

HERE is a mega rare Austin A60 half-ton pick-up. Not something you see every day wouldn't you agree?

Recently re-commissioned by an enthusiast, she has been treated to any necessary chassis/ structural work with lots of her underside properly re-fabricated. Bonny enough for a commercial although probably in the condition one of these working vehicles would have been in after a few ...

Picture of 1966 DAIMLER V8 250 AUTO - LOVELY EXAMPLE, ENORMOUS HISTORY! - SOLD

ALONG with the Mark 2 Jaguar, probably one of the most iconic sports saloons to come out of the 1960s. This is my 1966 Daimler V8 250 and she is delightful condition. She comes with a detailed history file which includes, amongst so much else, details and photos of a complete strip down and re-paint around 2008. Everything out. Glass, the lot. She has survived that attention very well indeed during ...
