Honda Monkey

Lot # 1 (Sale Order: 1 of 96)      

Who would have thought that the little Honda Monkey would become so popular? The fact is that they are today highly sought after and quite rarely put up for sale, so we expect this one to attract a lot of interest. Especially as it has a good history of being in the care of the same owner between 1978 and 2014. During that time it was mainly used as a pit bike by a Swedish racing team and accordingly only driven very little. It was thus never restored and presents itself as a very well maintained original condition Monkey.

Fiat Ritmo 100S

Lot # 6 (Sale Order: 6 of 96)      

This is a very rare survivor of the once so popular Fiat Ritmo, the Italian Golf.

It probably helps that this example is a late 1987-version as well as being a top-of-the-line 100S (besides the Abarths, that is), but the original owner played an even more important part in the survival. He really took good care of the car in its early years, not being cheap with the rust inhibitors and generally looking very well after the car. When it after many years (for a Ritmo) of trusty duty it no longer looked as he wanted it to look he took the unusal (for a Ritmo!) decision to rebuild the car, rather than put it down as many other Ritmos were.

That was in 2004 and when the car emerged fresh from the restoration it was put back into more limited service and enjoyed a protected life.

As the original owner died the car was taken over by a local youngster who had known the car for years. Again it must be seen as rather unusual the a 1987 Ritmo appeals to a young man – and maybe even more unusual that he did not modify it out of all recognisability, The second owner put 30.000 kilometers on it in but garaged it during winter, so in effect took over where the original owner left.

The car was sold to a motoring writer who could not stand for the fact that the car was the sole 100S in all of Europe for sale at the time. This was in August 2016, but he actually used it very sparingly, putting less than 1500 kilometers on the clock.

This bring the total owners to three, the kilometers to 262.000 and amazingly the Ritmo 100S still presents itself very well with shiny paintwork, straight panels and even the black trim details have stood up well. Inside the time and the kilometers have also been kind to the Ritmo: Only the driver’s seat is worn through and has been fitted with a seat cover. The foam under the headlining was coming apart and removed by the second owner and should ideally be renewed. The car is on non-original alloys but comes with a set of Cromodora alloys as well.

The 100S was in reality the predecessor to the originally hottest Ritmo, the 105TC, and the two actually use the same 1600-twin cam Lampredi-engine of 103 horsepower. While in 1987 the 100S was not being recognized as a proper hot hatch it was no slouch either - and was in fact faster than the 105TC thanks to better aerodynamics and lower weight. Surely the 100S is worthy of some recognition now. When did you last see one?

This one is ready to enjoy as the Ritmo was treated to a full service before being put up for sale.

Triumph 1800

Lot # 7 (Sale Order: 7 of 96)      

Fully restored and ready to go, this Triumph 1800 is almost as fine as you can find them today. The 1800 Roadster, model number 18TR, was designed in the closing days of World War II. Triumph had been bought by the Standard Motor Company in 1944, and the managing director of Standard, Sir John Black, wanted a sports car to take on Jaguar, who had used Standard engines in the pre-war period. Frank Callaby was selected to style the new car. After getting Black's approval for the general shape, Callaby worked with Arthur Ballard to design the details of the body. Design of the rolling chassis was by Ray Turner. Walter Belgrove, who had styled the pre-war Triumphs and was employed as Chief Body Engineer, had no part in the design. Early post-war steel shortages meant that the body was built from aluminium, using rubber press tools that had been used making panels for the largely wooden bodied Mosquito bomber that had been built by Standard during the war. The frame was hand welded up from steel tube. The engine was a version of Standard's 1.5-litre, four-cylinder side-valve design that had been converted to overhead valves by Harry Weslake and built by Standard exclusively for SS-Jaguar before World War II. The Triumph version differed from the Jaguar version in having a 6.7:1 compression ratio instead of the Jaguar's 7.6:1 and a downdraught Solex carburettor instead of the Jaguar's side-draught SU. A four-speed gearbox with synchromesh on the top three ratios was used. The tubular steel chassis was a short-wheelbase version of the 1800 saloon, featuring transverse leaf sprung independent suspension at the front and a live axle with semi-elliptic springs at the rear. The rear track was wider than the front by some 4 inches. Brakes were hydraulic. The body design was anachronistic. A journalist old enough to remember the pre-war Dolomite Roadster that had inspired the car felt that the elegant proportions of the earlier model had been abandoned in favour of a committee-based compromise, "a plump Christmas turkey to set against that dainty peacock ... Toadster [than Roadster]". The front had large separate headlamps and the radiator was well back from the front between large "coal scuttle" wings. Passenger accommodation was on a bench seat that was claimed to seat three: the car's 64 inch width helped make a reality of the three-abreast seating, and the approach meant a column gear change was required. The car's unusual width also made it necessary to fit three screen wipers in a row, an example followed by early shallow windscreen Jaguar E Types. Additional room for two was provided at the rear in a dickey seat with its own folding windscreen: this was outside the hood that could be erected to cover the front seat. Entry and exit to the dickey seat was never easy and a step was provided on the rear bumper. The Roadster was the last production car with a dickey seat. On test by Autocar magazine in 1947 top speed was found to be 75 mph (121 km/h) and 0–60 mph (0–96 km/h) took 34.4 seconds. Evidently keen to be positive without misleading their readers, the magazine described the maximum speed as "satisfying but not startlingly high".

SAAB 95

Lot # 9 (Sale Order: 9 of 96)      

With the SAAB 95 we are talking about two cars in one: An incredibly charming classic - but also a very useful small car, even by today’s standards. The ingenious hinged rear extra rear seat is the secret of the little car's huge flexibility that can be enjoyed by up to seven people. Incredible for such a small car. The rear passengers sit rearwards to the direction of travel, but in return they have an incredibly good view of the passing landscape. As a rule station wagons typically live a harder life than sedans, and there are almost always fewer survivors. This also applies to the 95 which is a much rarer bird than its sedan cousin. That this specific car is still with us owes to one or more restorations along the way. However, it is an older renovation, and this is evident in the bodywork which is solid but has room for cosmetic improvements. If you deem such things necessary. For the car as it is runs well with strong powertrain and gearbox, complete with coasting on the gearbox and bubbly V4 engine sound. This means that it can easily be enjoyed as it is, complete with patina and charm. The last MOT (equivalent) in 2016, but since then the brakes have seen better days: They must be inspected before taking to the road again. About the model: SAAB 95 was the station wagon version of the famous sedan 93, and the model was born in 1959. It had the same two-stroke engine as the 93, but followed sister model 96's development and in 1967 came as a four-stroke engine like this. SAAB by then had no own four-stroke engines, so they bought the Ford V4 from the Taunus and it proved a good solution: With the V4 the 95/96 lived eleven years more, namely until 1978. SAAB built around 110,000 SAAB 95, but how many are left is an open question. Today, the small station wagon is a very charming classic that you do not see every day.

Porsche 217 Tractor running

Lot # 10 (Sale Order: 10 of 96)      

Dr. Ferdinand Porsche's wide-ranging interests in all things mechanical – and practical – led him to include designs for farm tractors in his project portfolio beginning in the 1930's. As with all things from Dr. Porsche's fertile creativity, the tractors owed little to convention and much to efficiency and imagination. The earliest Porsche tractor designs were modular, with one-, two-, three- and four-cylinder engines sharing common cylinders for manufacturing economy and ease of repair and maintenance. Their most intriguing characteristic, however, was their drive system. It was based upon an hydraulic coupling rather than a mechanical clutch, a feature that was – like the simple epicyclic two-speed transmission of Henry Ford's Model T – designed to be simple to use and maintain by unsophisticated farmers. This fine Porsche tractor needs some TLC but is running.

Audi Cabriolet Aut.

Lot # 12 (Sale Order: 12 of 96)      

Again we have an Audi Cabriolet favourite of the incrowd in the nineties and famously driven by Princesse Diana and the likes. This example is a very well maintained example in a very attractive colour combination and fitted with an automatic tranmission to the classic five-cylinder engine. Its 2.3-litres makes for effortless cruising in comfort, top up or down. The Cabriolet was quite an important car for Audi as it marked their first excursion into the cabriolet market. Of course it is a derivative of the 80 but being thoroughly reengineered into Cabriolet form it took on an identity quite of its own. And a very popular one it was, by far outliving it humble forebear and the last one being built in the year 2000. We believe the Cabriolet has a future as a classic Ð and even if you doubt that no-one can deny the Audi is a very nice open car hard to beat for practicality, elegance quality and economy.

Peugeot 404 Break

Lot # 13 (Sale Order: 13 of 96)      

The 404 Break is a tremendously practical classic that both tolerates hard use, can accomodate most and is still an elegant and comfortable classic car. The 404 very early earned a reputation for being very sturdy cars, and for many, many years they were popular workhorses as taxis, rally cars and (especially in the pickup variant) in Africa. The latter did not rust, but the others did! This particular car was initially delivered to the US market (hence the speedometer in miles) and was most of its life spared from exposure to the European rust climate. It was furthermore completely restored a few years back, and after being imports into Denmark has also benifited from a rebuilt engine. Years later the vehicle still presents itself well: The Break is an incredibly elegant shape and this one is in perhaps the best color combination for the French dandy: Dark blue with red interior that complements the classic Pininfarina-lines perfectly. A 404 Break is not only an elegant classic in the driveway, garage or even collection Ð but is also extremely practical: There is both room for five people and their luggage, and all travelers can enjoy the airy cabin and the suspension, famous for its comfort. Should you need even more space, then tilt the back seat down and the car can literally accommodate hundreds of bottles ofred wine and even more baguettes! Of course it is quite impossible to define the perfect classic. but if your needs involve space, comfort, quality and elegance, then this 404 Break is a very good bet. About the model: Peugeot 404 was in production for more than thirty years. The last ten or fifteen years under license in Kenya, but it says still something about the modelÕs basic qualities: It was a solid car that could withstand hard use. So strong that it also enjoyed great success in rallying, which at that time were often more about endurance than pure speed. The 404 have always enjoyed a reputation for being well motorized, and any 404 with the rock-solid 1.6-litre engine can easily keep up with traffic. Particularly Break models are now coveted as classics.

Mercedes 280 SEL 4.5 Aut.

Lot # 15 (Sale Order: 15 of 96)      

This is a uniquely well maintained car with an exceptionally good and well documented history: This beautiful Mercedes has for all 45 years of its life been in the same family who has never spared anything in relation to itÕs maintenance. Add to that that this is the most popular variant of the series with the powerful 4.5-liter V8 engine. Included with the car is literally hundreds of pages with service and maintenance documentation right down to the original sales invoice. The first owner personally picked up the then brand new car at the Mercedes factory in Germany after which he and his wife drove on holiday around Europe before it at the end of the journey was put on a ferry and sent off to the United States. The car was obviously well loved and even today has very few signs of wear. This is unusual after many years of faithful service in sunny California: Of course the bodywork is absolutely free bodywork and appear completely rust free but much more surprising is the state of the interior, which is not the least sun-damaged. The car has obviously been parked in the garage a large part of its cosseted life. In short: You donÕt see these large Mercedes as good as this very often, so here is one of those rare chances to acquire a really well-maintained original car with full history and documentation. All variants of these large sedans have in recent years become more sought after, none more so than the V8Õs and it would surely be difficult to find a better one than this. About the model: The SEL-model here belong to the family of cars that Mercedes codenamed W108: The model debuted in 1965 and cemented MercedesÕ reputation as a manufacturer of solid luxury cars in the upper class. The SEL variant was the largest and rarest of the variant. Three years after the debut model was updated with the new 2.8-liter engine that was a very effective and strong power source to the big wagon. The extreme 6.3-motorized version is literally a separate number with its own model code. And then there is this, the V8: At the very end of the W108 life came the newer and more modern eight-cylinder engines, which were also later used for many years in the R107-W107 models. Today it is the most sought after variant of the W108, being faster than the sixcylinder cars and much more walletfriendly than the 6.3. The best W108 there is, probably.
This is a uniquely well maintained car with an exceptionally good and well documented history: This beautiful Mercedes has for all 45 years of its life been in the same f...moreamily who has never spared anything in relation to itÕs maintenance. Add to that that this is the most popular variant of the series with the powerful 4.5-liter V8 engine. Included with the car is literally hundreds of pages with service and maintenance documentation right down to the original sales invoice. The first owner personally picked up the then brand new car at the Mercedes factory in Germany after which he and his wife drove on holiday around Europe before it at the end of the journey was put on a ferry and sent off to the United States. The car was obviously well loved and even today has very few signs of wear. This is unusual after many years of faithful service in sunny California: Of course the bodywork is absolutely free bodywork and appear completely rust free but much more surprising is the state of the interior, which is not the least sun-damaged. The car has obviously been parked in the garage a large part of its cosseted life. In short: You donÕt see these large Mercedes as good as this very often, so here is one of those rare chances to acquire a really well-maintained original car with full history and documentation. All variants of these large sedans have in recent years become more sought after, none more so than the V8Õs and it would surely be difficult to find a better one than this.

Porsche 911 SC

Lot # 16 (Sale Order: 16 of 96)      

This beautiful 911 was originally sold to California - to an apparently very finicky owner who selected the special color "Elfenbein". Along with a brown interior the car here therefore appears as one of the more tasteful symbols of the seventies, and the bright body color highlights the classic 911 shape beautifully. In 2010, the car was re-imported into its country of origin Germany, where it underwent a thorough overhaul back to European specifications as well as an extensive restorations with many new parts. In 2013 the car was imported and registered in Denmark, where it has since been running with the same owner. A beautiful and well maintained 911 of a model variant that recent years have increased in price. Last serviced at Porsche Center in MY GARAGE in 2016. About the model: The 911 model series is a complicated affair - even if you only look at the early models of "F" and "G" variants. But most know that "Carrera" model from 1973 is almost the Holy Grail in the Porsche 911. Fewer know what the model name "SC" as in this car actually stands for - but the answer is "Super Carrera". Serious stuff, then! The fact was that the SC would replace both the regular 911 AND the Carrera variant, and this is how it came out as the Super Carrera and a very competent representative of the 911-family: The three-litre engine is providing 180 horsepower, delivering them with the familiar dry engine noise from the air-cooled six-cylinder boxer engine. As a classic 911 is a relatively light car the performance is good, and not least the driving pleasure as such is fabulous. The SC is a great all-round sports car that can handle a track day as well a a long distance tour with luggage. Prices of 911Õs in recent years only gone one way: up. When driving a good one, so you understand why so many want a 911.

Volvo 544 B18

Lot # 17 (Sale Order: 17 of 96)      

Here is a classic with a history that oozes love: From its birth in 1962 to 2015 the Volvo was owned by the same family that predominantly used it to drive to their summer house in (where else ?) Sweden. The odometer after these many years has a kilometer count 307,000, but those kilometers simply can not be seen on the car. It has been continuously maintained and renovated as well as rust protected, and not only presents it self beautifully and completely rust free, but is also running extremely tight and well. The paint is from 1997 and suits the Volvo´s American inspired lines exceptionally well. The interior is in similarly great condition. The underpinnings and driveline is a whole story in itself. The Volvo 544 with the original B18 engine was back in the sixties a brisk car even fresh from the factory, but this car is further optimized. In 1964 it received twin SU carburettors (like the GT model), and later the engine was tuned by the Ditlevsen Racing Team, who otherwise tuned Austin Healeys and Cooper´s for the Danish race circuit Roskilde Ring. In several steps the cylinder head was modified, new valves were fitted, the crank balanced (interestingly at the Danish Institute of Technology), a sport camshaft was fitted and all was completed with a lightened flywheel, sports manifold and a complete two-inch exhaust. This is a very well built engine, making the brown 544 something of a wolf in sheeps clothing, but at the same time cit can deliver up to 14 kilometers on a liter of petrol with relaxed driving. The original engine parts and dynamo are included with the car. All of the history of this car is unusually well documented: Starting with the original sales contract from 1962 and by a further one kilogram of papers up until present day! A unique chance to acquire a very special Volvo 544. Currently registered on Danish historic license plates.

Rolls Royce Silver Spirit

Lot # 18 (Sale Order: 18 of 96)      

Unusually for such a relatively new car this Rolls-Royce has been meticulously restored down into the smallest detail. This was done at a huge cost, of course Ð no wonder, really, considering the quality and standard these cars were originally built to. One of the reasons for the fine attention to detail was most unusual: This car originally left the factory in 1983 as a Bentley Mulsanne! At one time the owner decided he liked the Rolls-Royce Silver Spirit better, however, and as the two were sister models he chose to have It restored as the latter. This work was carried out some years back, but the work holds up really well and the car presents it self with the authority than a Rolls-Royce should. And a Bentley. The car had it last MOT (equivalent) in 2011 and is incredibly comfortable and runs just at these true upper class cruisers should. It is ready to register and to care for its new owner in many years to come.

Porsche 930 Turbo 3.3

Lot # 19 (Sale Order: 19 of 96)      

The famous Turbo has been the pinnacle of the Porsche 911-series since 1975. Incredibly it is really that many years since the already competent sports car 911 was turbocharged Ð and created a myth all of its own. This particular Turbo was delivered to a leasing company in Missouri in May 1979, as evidenced by the service booklet. In the following years the car changed hands a few times, amongst others and most appropiately to the myth along the way belonging to a nightclub owner in Connecticut who drove the car until his death. Later the car went to the independent Porsche workshop Wheelers Auto, also in Connecticut, where the owner of the workshop went through the car from a-z, including a throrough engine rebuild. There is extensive photo documentation from when this work was made in 2014. The car has only been running rather little since the renovation, and the engine is in absolute top condition with no oil spill nor oil consumption. The car is kept close to 100% original Ð but retrofitted with a K27 turbo, catalysts removed and the warm-air boxes being of an improved type. The car was recently piloted at the Danish race circuit Jyllandsringen by former Le Mans-winning driver John Nielsen, who assessed that the car runs like it did the day when it rolled out of the factory.

MGA 1958 Not DK reg.

Lot # 20 (Sale Order: 20 of 96)      

Original paint - solid car, only 2 small dents on right rear fender. France paper. Found in original condition by Danish collector few years ago - but I will not be able to fix it. With only a little TLF the MGA will shine again. No Danish reg. The MGA design dates back to 1951, when MG designer Syd Enever created a streamlined body for George Philips' TD Le Mans car. The problem with this car was the high seating position of the driver because of the limitations of using the TD chassis. A new chassis was designed with the side members further apart and the floor attached to the bottom rather than the top of the frame sections. A prototype was built and shown to the BMC chairman Leonard Lord. He turned down the idea of producing the new car as he had just signed a deal with Donald Healey to produce Austin-Healey cars two weeks before. Falling sales of the traditional MG models caused a change of heart, and the car, initially to be called the UA-series, was brought back. As it was so different from the older MG models it was called the MGA, the "first of a new line" to quote the contemporary advertising. There was also a new engine available, therefore the car did not have the originally intended XPAG unit but was fitted with the BMC corporate B-Series type allowing a lower bonnet line. The MGA convertible had no exterior door handles, however the coupe has door handles. It was a body-on-frame design and used the straight-4 "B series" engine from the MG Magnette saloon driving the rear wheels through a 4-speed gearbox. Suspension was independent with coil springs and wishbones at the front and a rigid axle with semi-elliptic springs at the rear. Steering was by rack and pinion. The car was available with either wire-spoked or steel-disc road wheels. The 1489 cc engine fitted with twin H4 type SU Carburettors produced 68 hp (51 kW) at first, but was soon uprated to 72 hp (54 kW). Lockheed hydraulic drum brakes were used on all wheels. A coupé version was also produced, bringing the total production of standard MGAs to 58,750. An early open car tested by British magazine The Motor in 1955 had a top speed of 97.8 mph (157.4 km/h) and could accelerate from 0–60 mph (97 km/h) in 16.0 seconds. A fuel consumption of 26.7 miles per imperial gallon (10.6 L/100 km; 22.2 mpg US) was recorded. The test car cost £844 including taxes.

Ford Popular

Lot # 21 (Sale Order: 21 of 96)      

This is a very well running Ford Popular built to an extremely high standard, accented by a personal touch of light customising. The fine work on this Popular is a result of a caring father wanting his daughter to drive a well-restored classic car. Which he then set out to build himself with a lot of care and thought put into the restoration. As a result the car is a strong driver, beautifully presented and very well put together. The finished car was then presented to his daughter who unfortunately never really used the car. The very eyecatching Ford Popular still presents it self as only recently out of restoration and drives accordingly. However the owner has pointed out that the clutch release bearing of the gearbox probably needs attention, as the car can jump out of second gear. Recent MOT and Danish historical number plates

Citroën CX 2500 GTI ex-Thomas Blachman

Lot # 22 (Sale Order: 22 of 96)      

As if a Citroën CX was not special enough! But this one is even more special: Not because of its famous owner but because of its customised details - although they are so ever discreet that it would take a connoisseur of these French icons of futurism to spot them. The thing is that this CX was born in 1984 as a 2500 GTI, the model that finally endowed the CX with the power its shape deserved: 138 horsepower from the big injected four made the slippery car a genuine 200 km/h vehicle. Without sacrifing the famous CX trademark, the fabulous ride, the CX could now cover some serious ground and ten years after the launch of the original CX the model was better than ever and with other small updates was still a competitive car in the marketplace. However some of the later updates did not suit the owner of this car, who acquired the car in 2004 and then decided to restore it. After his own particular taste in the CX of which he was and is a great enthusiast. During the restoration, which not surprisingly comprised a lot of new metal, some of which was metallised for better protection, he chose his ingredients with one eye on the style of the earlier cars. Which is why this car features the earlier style chrome. Of that material he did not want too much, though, which is why the side mirrors are of a later style and painted in the body colour. Which is an absolutely fantastic metallic brown, perfectly suited to point towards the future as well as the past at the same time. Add to that the smooth stainless wheel covers and the car looks out of this world, even today. And that is still not all: The interior also benefits from some tasteful upgrading, as this is the full leather version with its famous convoluted stitching and all of it in a very dramatic deep red colour making you immediately want for a grape-based drink and possibly cigarettes too - as well as a minimum of French vocabulary. As this work of automobile art was finished in 2009 it just so happened that the famous Danish X-factor judge and TV-personality Thomas Blachman fell in love with the brown wonder and he and the owner came to an agreement: Blachman traded in his old CX for this newly restored GTI. He drove the car for seven years, during which time it often featured in his TV-work and even a music video. In 2016 he sold off the CX in a sale handled by the original restorer and the car passed to a collector and went into storage. During a major clean up in his collection he then decided to sell the Blachman-CX. And here it is: An eight year old restoration that is still holding up well. The work was obviously done to a high standard back then and the extensive rustproofing has worked. However the car bears scars from being used in Copenhagen city traffic and some minor dings are accompanied by several scratches to the paintwork. No rust issues has arisen from these, however, and the vendor found the car overall very sound. The beautiful leather interior would benefit from a clean up and maybe recolouring, but the interior is otherwise complete and in good nick. Overall this CX is a striking example of the French supertourer, which after years of being overlooked is finally being recognized as a masterpiece of advanced automotive design and prices have risen sharply lately. Add the history of its former owner and decide for yourself whether it is time.

Lincoln Continental V12

Lot # 23 (Sale Order: 23 of 96)      

As we all know it just doesnÕt get any better than twelve cylinders. Unless you add spectacular design as well. Such as here where you get both. This impressive machine is like most of its kind extradited from new in GodÕs own country back in 1948. That is so many years back that its early history is unknown, but the car reappeared to its second life and new grandeur when it was exported to the Netherlands. Here it was completely restored by a collector and now appears in very fine condition. Paint and hood are new, but the car is renovated with great respect for originalty and for example the instruments are still the original. After the renovation, the car was sold to Belgium, where a Danish collector fell for its charisma, style and quality. He imported the car to Denmark, had it MOTÕed and registered and used it sparingly for pleasure driving. The spectacular machine presents itself very well, is running strongly and is ready for re-registration to the new owner. ItÕs hard to imagine humming out in the summer of 2017 with more style than this big twelve-cylinder convertible from a bygone era: The Lincoln Convertible V12 is truly an impressive vehicle, About the model: This luxury car is a result of the young Edsel FordÕs ambitions for his fatherÕs car brand: Edsel was thrilled by the European luxury vehicles, and wanted the Ford Group to be the American brand that could offer the Europeans some competition in this market sector. Just before the war, he built a prototype that was designed along the best European lines, but based on the Lincoln Zephyr running gear. It received an excellent reception by the press and potential customers as well, but actual production was stopped by the war. Edsel Ford died in 1943, but Ford resumed production after the war and this 1948 model is one of the last. The model is also one of the last cars recognized as a ÒFull ClassicÓ by the American Classic Car Club of America, and also the last American V12-powered series production vehicle. A great classic that exudes motoring history in every detail.

ItÕs hard to imagine humming out in the summer of 2017 with more style than this big twelve-cylinder convertible from a bygone era: The Lincoln Convertible V12 is truly an impressive vehicle, About the model: This luxury car is a result of the young Edsel FordÕs ambitions for his fatherÕs car brand: Edsel was thrilled by the European luxury vehicles, and wanted the Ford Group to be the American brand that could offer the Europeans some competition in this market sector. Just before the war, he built a prototype that was designed along the best European lines, but based on the Lincoln Zephyr running gear. It received an excellent reception by the press and potential customers as well, but actual production was stopped by the war. Edsel Ford died in 1943, but Ford resumed production after the war and this 1948 model is one of the last. The model is also one of the last cars recognized as a ÒFull ClassicÓ by the American Classic Car Club of America, and also the last American V12-powered series production vehicle. A great classic that exudes motoring history in every detail.

Austin Healey

Lot # 24 (Sale Order: 24 of 96)      

Just arrived in our showroom. An Austin Healey 100/6 in very fine fettle. Treated to a full nut-and-bolt restoration some years back and since then maintained to a high standard and running very well. Included in the sale are new wire wheels with new tyres and a car cover. The Austin-Healey 100-6 is a two-seat roadster that was announced in late September 1956[3] and produced from 1956 to 1959. A replacement for the Austin-Healey 100, it was followed by the Austin-Healey 3000; together, the three models have become known as the Big Healeys. The 100-6 featured a 2 in (50.8 mm) longer wheelbase than the 100, a more powerful straight-six engine in place of its slightly larger inline-four, and added two occasional seats (which later became optional). The body lines were slightly streamlined, a smaller, wider radiator grille placed lower, an air scoop was added to the bonnet, and the windscreen fixed. The 100-6 was produced in two model designators, the 2+2 BN4 from 1956 onwards and the 2-seat BN6 in 1958-9. The cars used a tuned version of the BMC C-Series engine previously fitted to the Austin Westminster, initially producing 102 bhp (76 kW) and increased in 1957 to 117 bhp (87 kW) by fitting a revised manifold and cylinder head. The previously standard overdrive unit was made optional. In late 1957 production was transferred from Longbridge to the MG plant at Abingdon. The 100-6s were produced before production ended in 1959. A 117 bhp (87 kW) BN6 was tested by The Motor magazine in 1959 had a top speed of 103.9 mph (167.2 km/h) and could accelerate from 0-60 mph (97 km/h) in 10.7 seconds. A fuel consumption of 20.8 miles per imperial gallon (13.6 L/100 km; 17.3 mpg-US) was recorded. The test car cost £1307 including taxes of £436

Mercedes 220

Lot # 25 (Sale Order: 25 of 96)      

This Mercedes 220 is a very good project where the fun part is remaining. The owner was on his way to a very good quality restoration, as evidenced by a hard look at the bodywork and chassis which are both finished and painted to a high standard. However the project stalled at this stage years ago and has been in storage since. It is testament to the quality of the work carried out before the storage that all still looks fresh and beautiful Ð ready for a new owner to continue with the nice and clean tasks of finishing off the restoration. Restored examples of 220 S can be found on the market offered for 60.000 Euros and more. This one has all the expensive work carried out and is, apart from one missing side window and the rear bumber, complete. Even the engine was prepared back then and has recently been run for the first time since it was taken out of storage. It started first time out. Danish Papers. A brilliant opportunity for the enterprising enthusiast. The Mercedes-Benz W187 is a full-size luxury car produced by Mercedes-Benz from 1951 to 1955. Introduced at the Frankfurt Motor Show in April 1951 it was powered by a single overhead camshaft inline six-cylinder M180 engine and available as a saloon, coupé, and cabriolet, all designated with the 220 model name. Despite its pre-World War II reputation as a manufacturer of luxury cars, in the immediate post-war years Mercedes-Benz produced only four-cylinder-engined passenger cars. The W187 Mercedes-Benz 220 and flagship W186 Mercedes-Benz 300 Adenauer introduced together in 1951 were the first Mercedes to once again feature six-cylinder engines. The styling was similar to that of the Mercedes-Benz 170S except that the 170's freestanding headlights were for the 220 integrated into the fenders for a slightly more modern look. Two different cabriolet models were built, conceived as exclusive sporting cars of exclusive character, but these only sold 1,278 and 997 for the "A" (2-door, 2/3-seat) and "B" (2-door, 4-seat) versions, respectively. In December 1953, just as the saloon and cabriolet "B" models were about to be replaced, a "Cabriolet A" derived W187 Coupé was announced for 1954. The Mercedes-Benz sales department let it be known that this development was a direct response to pressing requests from leading celebrities of the time. During 1953 the manufacturer replaced the conventionally flat windscreen on the 2/3 seater "Cabriolet A" with a slightly curved screen, which also found its way on to the new coupé: this was a way of highlighting the sporting nature of both models. Nevertheless, the coupé once fitted, as many were, with a steel sunroof, was at the end of 1953 offered for 22,000 Marks which was nearly twice the price for the standard W187 "Limousine", and only 85 of the W187 coupés were actually sold. Between August 1952 and May 1953 41 special soft top "OTP" bodied W187 220s were produced for the police
