We are pleased to offer for sale this exceptional motor car, built in 1998/99, to exacting standards, as a tool room replica of the now extremely rare Gordon England coach built Austin Seven Cup model.  The car was built from a 1927 chassis (registered as manufactured 1927 on the V5C) and includes performance engine with Phoenix crankshaft, balanced rods and pistons, big valves, raised compression, Dante 4 branch exhaust manifold and SU carburettor, which produces 28 BHP at the rear wheels.  The car has been fitted with a coil conversion kit.  It was constructed by a well-known Austin specialist, with bodywork by Tom Abernathy.  We are told that this car is capable of 70 mph, but we haven’t tried that out.  A VSCC buff form was issued in April 2004.  This car is in superb condition including the fabric and aluminium bodywork, the paintwork is excellent and the underside of the car is very good indeed.  The leather upholstery, quality canvas hood and tonneau are all, again, in A1 condition.  The car starts on the button and runs well, offering good performance.  Comes with V5C and history file.  This is a rare opportunity, not to be missed.

This smashing little Morris 8 Tourer, first registered on 12^th April 1938, was restored in 1996, and has now developed a lovely patina.  Finished in maroon over black, with very good burgundy interior and black hood, side screens and hood cover, it is powered by a 918cc side-valve engine, rated as an 8HP car, and driven through a 3-speed gearbox, allegedly providing 40 mpg at 40 mph.  It starts easily, has good oil pressure and is a delight to drive – a marvellous vehicle for showing, or just popping down to the shops.  These Morris 8s are a pretty reliable form of pre-war motoring.  The structure is obviously good, having been restored, and the underside is clean and tidy.  The accompanying file of paperwork includes continuation book from 1954, MOT certificates from 1997 to 2012, a good set of photographs of the restoration, and workshop manual.  Just out of interest – the original price of this car £128 when new!

SOLD

Another very nice MGB, first registered in July 1969.  The car is in very good condition having been extensively restored in the early 2000s.  Finished in British Racing Green with chrome wire wheels, it has the benefit of overdrive, which works well.  The restoration included fully body refurbishment – with photographic record – and a new Ivor Searle engine, which we think has covered 14,000 miles since then.  The paintwork is in good condition with just few of the usual blemishes and the interior is  very good indeed, with black leather seats with piping.  The door cards and carpets are good, the hood cover and full length tonneau look to be almost brand new, as does the hood – although there is a little nick on one rear quarter-light.  The structure of this car is excellent following its body refurbishment, and the whole of the underneath is very clean and tidy.  The boot compartment, again, is in excellent condition and is carpeted, and the spare wheel matches the other four chrome wire wheels which are all in good condition.  The underside of the bonnet looks to be original but is  good and clean.  The engine starts easily and has plenty of power with good oil pressure, performance is good, as is the handling.   

Comes with MOT to April 2024 (no advisories), excellent file of service history, old MOTs, Heritage Certificate and V5C.

Finished in the extremely attractive shade of Chartreuse Yellow, this example is in good condition, having been extensively restored in 2019.  The car was first registered in 1^st January 1977, so was built in 1976.  The renovation work included a complete bare metal respray, new doors and bonnet, and we have a photographic record of this.  At this time, the brakes were fully overhauled, as was the cooling system, and electronic ignition was fitted.  The interior work included recovering the seats in black leather, and the wheels were also refurbished at the same time.  We believe the mileage of 56,000 to be genuine.  The car starts and runs well with good gearbox and overdrive, and well performing engine – which we think is the original.  The underside is good and sound.  There is however, a little room for improvement on this car – hence the price.  The history file includes its original Passport to Service, Owner’s Handbook and old invoices.  V5C and MOT to 21^st September 2024.

An excellent value MGB Roadster, with a long history and in the desirable shade of  Mineral Blue.  This car has been in the same ownership for 30 years, and in total, has had only 5 keepers.  It is in good condition, having been completely restored on an ongoing basis during the 1990s, and very well maintained thereafter.  The paintwork is generally good, with just a few blemishes to perhaps sort out, and the underside of the vehicle, including structure, is in very good condition – nice and clean and tidy.  The doors however, would benefit from a little realignment – hence the realistic asking price.  The sills and front wings have been replaced, as have the boot corners and floors. Mechanically, the car is in fine fettle and in fact, has just driven 220 miles to our premises with no issues whatsoever.  The engine has excellent oil pressure and runs very well, providing very good performance with good working overdrive.  Driving this car is a good experience.  The original seats are very good, as are the door cards, carpets, hood and tonneau.  In 2002, all four wheel hubs were replaced and new wire wheels were fitted.  A brake servo is fitted and the cylinder head has been converted to unleaded.  All in all, a very good car for very little money. Comes with good history file, old invoices etc.

This is a quite rare example of the MG TF, firstly because it is a 1500 model, and secondly because it is a very late car, built in 1955 – one of only a few that didn’t go to the USA in that year.  This particular car, which has a correct 1500 XPEG engine, has obviously been extensively restored and is in excellent condition throughout.  The bodywork is very good and the panels all fit correctly, even the doors.  The biscuit coloured interior is in good but mellowed condition;  the dashboard and all its instruments are in good condition, as are the steering wheel, canvas hood and side screens.  The paintwork is pretty much unmarked, so again, very good.  The underside of the car is clean and tidy and well maintained.  In 2010, a 5-speed gearbox was fitted – a great improvement, as any TF owner will tell you.  The car starts easily and runs well with good performance, good oil pressure, smooth gear change and a quiet back axle.  The tyres have obviously been replaced recently and all four are Khunos.  A useful boot rack has been fitted, this is easily removable if you choose.  Comes with some paperwork including some old invoices, lots of old MOT certificates, current V5C, two old V5s, old V5C and even a continuation book from 1963 -1976.  A very nice car indeed, and one not to be missed.
