To be offered on Saturday 21st February
2011 Porsche 997 GT3 RS 3.8
We are big fans of these cars and this stunning left-hand
drive Porsche 997 GT3 RS (Gen II) is no exception. The car was supplied
new by Porsche Zentrum Berlin in 2011 and has covered just 14,000 miles
since. Beautifully finished in Grey with black Clubsport interior and
white decals, this example is supplied with bills and receipts for
servicing from Porsche Berlin in 2013 and 2014. Supplied with two sets
of keys, service wallet and tools, at the time of cataloguing a UK
registration document has been applied for and should be ready in time
for the auction.
Coming with the benefit of factory warranty until April 2015, this
car represents a unique opportunity and presents beautifully in the
flesh. For added assurance, this RS will come to the auction directly
from Porsche Cardiff, where it will undergo a complete health check that
will be available for viewing in the history file.
Estimate (£): 100,000 - 120,000

1999 Ferrari 456M
This stunning model was sold new in the UK by Reg Vardy for the
princely sum of £170,000. It boasts one registered keeper from new and
has covered a mere 400 miles from new. The car has been stored in a
de-humidified garage for its entire life and has been run up to
temperature regularly. As one would expect, the car is presented in 'as
new' condition. The bodywork is flawless and has never seen rain; the
sumptuous black interior is unmarked and the engine bay is a delight.
This Ferrari 456 Modificata must be the lowest mileage example in
the country and is an exceptional opportunity for collectors. Supplied
with all books, service wallet, original bill of sale and desirable
fitted luggage, this V12 Italian thoroughbred must be seen to be
believed.
Estimate (£): 75,000 - 90,000

2005 Ferrari 575M Superamerica
We are pleased to offer this rare Ferrari 575M Superamerica which
was first sold in Germany in October 2005 to its only ever owner. It has
covered just 1,309 miles since. It was fully serviced by Scuderia
Berlin in 2011 at the cost of £4,000. Presented in the unusual and
striking colour combination, Grigio Silverstone with a black leather
interior, this example is offered in superb condition and the carbon
framed folding hard top operates smoothly and without fault.
Incredibly rare, only 559 Superamericas were built; this number
followed Enzo Ferrari's philosophy that there should always be one fewer
car available than the market demanded.
Estimate (£): 230,000 - 270,000

1998 BMW M3 EVO ll
Of the 17,000 M3s produced, only 500 Evo IIs left the factory,
making this example one of the most desirable 1980s homologation
specials in today's market.
This chassis was first sold new on 6th June 1988 by BMW Munich. In
1990, it was purchased by the second owner, who resided in Nice. The car
remained on the Riviera until it was found by the third and current
owner. The original service book shows a total of 18 stamps and the
original wallet is also in the file.
Bills and receipts show numerous works have been carried out over
the years and three years ago, this M3 was professionally re-sprayed in
its original colour of Nogaro Silver. The quality of this work was
faultless as the bodywork is still in superb condition. Supplied with
new tyres, a fresh MoT and serviced in January 2015 by main dealer BMW
Watford, this 80s icon is ready to be used and enjoyed by its next
owner.
Estimate (£): 38,000 - 42,000

1990 Lister Jaguar XJS 7.0 Le Mans Coupe
According to Lister factory chassis records, this XJS is one of
only 25 Le Mans 7.0 litre Coupes produced, so it is not only stylish but
also highly collectible. Furthermore, bills, receipts and MoT documents
give an extensive history and reveal a total mileage of 43,850 miles
from new.
A large array of recommissioning jobs were completed by David Marks
in 2012, a respected engineer within Jaguar Owner's Club circles. ‘GII
CAT’ was road tested by Ross Alkureishi of Classic Cars Magazine in
January 2015. He stated: "Say hello to the biggest, baddest Jaguar on
the planet - not even the XJ220 comes close in terms of sheer brute
force.”
1980s and 1990s exotica, such as the Lister XJS, have shown bullish
rises in value recently as their depreciation curves level off and good
examples become harder to source. This is a British bruiser in the most
subtle and gentlemanly of colour combinations.
Estimate (£): 38,000 - 42,000

1980 Ducati 900 Hailwood Replica – Series 1
Incredibly rare, there were only 300 of the Series 1 bikes
produced. Few therefore remain, making it by far the most collectible
version of the series’. This particular UK bike is owned by Silverstone
Auctions MD, Nick Whale, and has only had four previous keepers. The
bike has been very sympathetically restored to an extremely high
standard.
Having covered just over 15,000 miles from new and running
superbly, this model is presented in exceptional condition. With a
strong and superb sounding engine, it is both reliable and quick.
A must have for any serious collector, this Series 1 comes with a UK V5C, current MoT and known provenance.
Estimate (£): 14,000 - 16,000
