JAGUAR, MERCEDES AND FORD MAKE IT 1, 2, 3 AT BARONS, SANDOWN PARK

A beautiful 1965 Series 1 Jaguar E-type FHC was first past the finishing post at Barons’ Jaguar Heritage, Classic & Sports Car sale at Sandown Park racecourse last Friday, September 20th. The E-type, which has been the subject of a £60,000 restoration, sold for £71,500 and was followed by a stunning 1968 Mercedes-Benz W113 290SL Pagoda, an original UK RHD car, which achieved £66,000.

The third-highest price of the day was the £25,850 achieved for the sprightly 1936 Ford Model 68 with safari roof, which thoroughly exceeded its £17,000 top estimate. This motor car has a fine history in endurance rallying, having won the Spirit of the Rally trophy in the 2003 Safari Challenge, and subsequently completed the Circuit of Ireland, Africa’s Chipembele Rally and the Peking to Paris Rally. 

63 out of the 100 lots sold, with keen bidding seeing notable cars such as the very rare 1972 Citroen DS21 ‘Jubilee’ EFI Pallas exceeding its guide price to sell for £19,470. An original and rare factory manual supercharged 1995 straight six Jaguar XJR, one of just 105 built-in RHD, nearly doubled its estimate, selling for £4,840, while a fine future classic - a 2007 Jaguar S type XS Sport - performed equally well, selling for £4,510.

All 14 of the classic and future classic motorcycles, trikes, monkey bikes and quad bikes in the sale were snapped up by enthusiasts, with the 1969 Honda Z50A monkey bikes - perfect for the historic racing paddock and one signed by John Surtees and the other by Sir Stirling Moss - selling well, and the two Yamaha Banshees each exceeding top estimate.  

Barons’ next sale at Sandown Park is the Autumn Classic on October 26. Early entries include a handsome 1958 Austin-Healey 100/6 2+2, a 1966 Ford Mustang 289 Auto and a 1958 MG A Roadster 1500. For further information please visit www.barons-auctions.com.

ENTRIES INVITED FOR BARONS’ JAGUAR HERITAGE, CLASSIC AND SPORTS CARS SALE - SANDOWN PARK, SEPTEMBER 20th

ENTRIES INVITED FOR BARONS’ JAGUAR HERITAGE, CLASSIC AND SPORTS CARS SALE - SANDOWN PARK, SEPTEMBER 20th

Entries are invited for Barons’ annual Jaguar Heritage, Classic and Sports Cars sale, at Sandown Park racecourse on Friday, September 20.

Early Jaguar entries already consigned include an absolutely immaculate and hugely collectable Opalescent silver-grey 1965 E-type Series 1 FHC with Webasto sliding roof. It has been subject to a well-documented professional restoration costing some £60,000 and including a bare metal respray. This stunning example of the most iconic 1960s sports car carries a guide price of £80,000-£95,000.

Non-Jaguar entries include a beautiful 1933 Alvis Firefly. This elegant pre-War British classic was fully restored many years ago and has been lovingly cared for ever since. The guide price for this stylish motor car is £40,000-£50,000.

One unusual early submission - and possibly not one for Jaguar purists but certainly one for lovers of head-turning cars - is the 1959 Challenger E-type replica Mk 1. This unique machine is one of the first-ever Challenger E-types, having been built in Cornwall in 1995 by the Triple C Company before the company moved to the Scottish borders and changed its name to Challenger. So why the 1959 date attribution? That comes from the donor car - a 1959 Rover 90 - and has resulted in the car’s logbook showing it as registered as a 1959 Jaguar E-type, making it the oldest registered ‘E-type’ in the world! In bright red with white hardtop and whitewall tyres, it’s certainly a looker and, with a guide price of £8,000-£12,000, it offers E-type looks combined with a 3.5-litre Rover V8 engine for a decidedly un-E-type price!

ASTON, NASH AND ALFA TAKE TOP HONOURS AT BARONS’ SUMMER CLASSIC SALE

ASTON, NASH AND ALFA TAKE TOP HONOURS AT 
BARONS’ SUMMER CLASSIC SALE

 

A 2005 Aston Martin DB9 Volante in need of some TLC roared past its £13,000-£20,000 guide price to sell for £26,620, the top price of the day achieved at Barons’ Summer Classic sale at Sandown Park racecourse on July 16. 

 

This stylish if a little worn example of a modern British classic was neck and neck in the bidding stakes with a handsome piece of classic American automotive history, the splendid red and white 1930 Nash Ambassador 8 4-door sedan, which went to a new home for £26,400.

 

Third past the post was a really pretty - and potent - ochre-coloured 1973 Alfa Romeo GT Junior 1600, which exceeded top estimate to sell for £22,000. De-bumpered, fitted with an Alfa Romeo 2.0 litre Twin Spark engine, an Alfaholics fast road suspension set-up and road-legal semi-slick tyres it’s just begging to be taken out on a track day.  

 

Sweeping in in fourth and fifth places were an ex-Bentley press car 2003 Continental GT, and a sleek 1962 Bentley S2, in a sophisticated sage green over smoke green livery. They achieved £21,450 and £19,800 respectively. 

 

The immaculate 1970 Rover 3.5-litre P5B exceeded top estimate, selling for £16,940 and, further down the field, a rare 1998 Mercedes C43 AMG estate blew its £2,500-£4,000 estimate out of the water to achieve £6,050. 

 

The Barons team is now looking forward to its annual Jaguar Heritage, Classic and Sports Cars: sale, scheduled for 21 September at Sandown Park.
