  • Great history including an engine rebuild
Full Description

For sale, on behalf of one of our customers, we have this absolutely gorgeous MG TA. First registered in 1937, the car has clearly been loved and enjoyed by its three previous owners – proven by its extensive history folder.

Our customer acquired the car from a relative who had initially bought the car in 2014 and, prior to his health declining, carried out a whole host of improvements to the car:

  • Engine rebuild with rings and head skimmed etc.
  • New hood fitted.
  • New windscreens. 
  • New clutch.
  • New fuel pump and carburettor.
  • New radiator and hoses.
  • New fuel tank made to order. 
  • Luggage grid and new case.
  • All wheel cylinders replaced.
  • New spokes and tyres on the wheels.
  • King pins replaced.
  • New wooden floor.
  • Rear axle seals with lip seals.

There is a comprehensive history file that comes with the car that amply demonstrates all that has been done to keep the car running as well as possible.

The car has been mechanically prepared to be driven and enjoyed and when you do get behind the wheel that is obvious because, for the age of the car, it’s great fun to drive and really puts a smile on your face – with spritely levels of performance to match.

Cosmetically, the car is best described as tidy with no major issues anywhere. It is a car to get out, drive and enjoy.

Please get in touch for any further information or to arrange a viewing.

MGC GT

  • Recently completed full restoration with full engine rebuild
  • New interior and loom
  • Wire wheels

 

Full Description

Launched at the 1967 London Motor Show, the MGC was the British Motor Corporation’s replacement for the Austin Healey 3000. Based on the sporty % popular MGB, it was powered by a newly developed six-cylinder engine shared with the Austin 3 Litre.

This particular MGC came to us after being with another company for a few years. They had started the restoration process but were not moving the project along fast enough for the owner who had received the car in payment for an outstanding debt. He decided to get it restored so he could enjoy high days and holidays out in the car with his wife.

There was still a considerable amount of work left to do when we received the car. We set about getting it completed so that he would have chance to drive it before his failing health meant he was not able to get anymore enjoyment out of the car.

It was a pleasurable day when we were able to get him sat in the car and go for a quick blast up the industrial estate – the smile on his face was priceless for all concerned.

The car was completed and delivered back to the customers home in late 2022, unfortunately his health has deteriorated so badly that it has not been out of his garage and his family have taken the tough decision to sell the car and have asked us to market it for them.

There is a comprehensive pictorial history along with invoices for the work carried out by us.  As you can see, the car is absolutely top drawer in every aspect – the engine and gearbox perform well and it’s a nice lively car to enjoy the driving experience. From a cosmetic perspective, the paintwork and interior make for a really eye-catching classic British sports car ready for the next owner to get full enjoyment out the car in the years to come.

Westfield Aerorace – Track-Only Car

  • Stripped out track only car
  • Includes trailer and extra wheels
  • Great history

 

Full Description

This Westfield Aerorace was built to exacting standards by its owners. The son, a fully qualified Bentley master technician, has ensured that the attention to detail and quality of assembly reflect his high level of expertise. The car comes with all the original build manuals and invoices for the equipment installed.

The car is offered as a ready-to-go package, including a Brian James four-wheel Clubman trailer with a tire rack and fuel storage bins. (The car can be sold separately if required.)

The car is assembled with the following specifications:

Race chassis

Lightweight race body kit

Race loom

Upgraded suspension with front and rear roll bars

Racing 4-pot calipers

Professionally corner-weighted and set up

Zetec 2.0 with Alpha Performance EM kit from Webcon (170 BHP)

5-speed gearbox

Plumbed Zero 2000 fire extinguisher

FIA seats and 5-point harnesses

Second FIA seat for track days

FIA roll cage

Dash 2 fitted

Two sets of wheels: Compomotive CXR (slicks) & Revolution (wets)

This car has seen limited use, with no more than 20 track days, due to the son’s distraction with cider and women shortly after its construction. It has been regularly maintained with oil changes and mechanical checks and adjustments as expected.

The car is track-only and we believe it qualifies for several Westfield classes if desired. Otherwise, it promises the new owner top-tier track day fun.

Ford Anglia 105E

  • Fine example with lots of investment made
  • Engine fully rebuilt
  • Comprehensive history file

 

Full Description

The Anglia 105E burst onto the scene in 1959, all set to take the ’60s by storm with bold, futuristic styling including a low, wind-tunnel-honed nose and a reverse-rake rear screen that cleverly allowed great headroom, a large boot opening, and cost-saving flat rear glass.

There have been few bigger contrasts in engine history than Ford’s switch from the long-stroke, low-revving sidevalve to the short-stroke, oversquare, overhead-valve screamer in 1959.

The 105E unit was swiftly adopted for Formula Junior racing, and within two years a huge range of tuning options was available from evocative names such as Cosworth, Alexander, HRG, Holbay, PECO, Allard, and Willment.

It came with a new four-speed, three-synchro gearbox with a super-slick change.

This example is being sold on behalf of one of our customers, who is reducing his collection a little due to space.

The car is very straight and has benefited from investment in a number of key areas that make it a pleasure to drive and enjoy.

Within the comprehensive history file, there are details of all the work completed. This covers items like a very recent full engine rebuild, new starter ring gear, flywheel re-faced, new engine mounts, fuel pump, distributor, electronic ignition, dynator, carburettor refurbished, gearbox reconditioned, full clutch, brakes overhauled with brake cylinders and shoes replaced, new UJs, new exhaust system, electric fuel priming pump, and additional gauges and switches fitted to the car. In addition to all of the above, the car has recently had new Easy Steer electric power steering fitted, which makes it even nicer to drive and enjoy.

As can be seen from all the work that has been completed, this car is ready to drive, cherish, and enjoy for years to come. Please come and have a drive; you won’t be disappointed.

Triumph Herald 12/50 

  • Date of registration 19-06-1963
  • 1147 cc
  • Mileage – 61,628
  • Only 3 previous owners from new
  • Immense vehicle history
Full Description

This absolute survivor of a Triumph Herald was first registered on 19th June 1963, supplied by Myers and Burnell Limited of Davygate in York. The first owner paid £650 for the car which, as the original bill of sale shows, included extra underseal  at a cost of ten pounds 1 shilling and three pence!

The history file on this car is absolutely incredible, as well as the aforementioned original bill of sale the car also has the original buff log book and most of the tax discs, along with the original hand book and a collection of Jet garage maps.

The first owner kept the car until March, 1991 when it was sold. The car was purchased in 2023 with the recent owner spending time re-comissioning the car mechanically before we picked it up.

To be honest the car was not on our radar as one we went to look at, however as I walked bye something caught my eye as to how original the car was. Upon finding out the history of the car, I thought it was  a car that deserved to be given a chance to get back to being loved and enjoyed – as it clearly had been in it’s early years,

As you will see from the pictures, the body has some rust areas, all of these could be treated and left in oily rag style preservation. There is some fabrication work required on the chassis which we could carry out if the purchaser wanted us to complete some, or all, of the work. Obviously we could carry out a full restoration on the car, but clearly that would be an investment way beyond the potential market value of the car. It may be a project you’d like to embark on yourself and we could pick up any of the tricky bits. The car runs so sweetly and, with a bit of work underneath, the car would be good to go and enjoy!

Please have a look at the pictures and video on our YouTube channel, or come and have a look if you are interested. We want to find someone who will give this car the love is deserves!

2002 Aston Martin Vanquish

  • 460 BHP
  • Transmission:Semi automatic
  • Mileage: 43000
  • Exterior Colour: Tungsten Silver
  • UK Registered
Full Description

The Aston Martin Vanquish was the last of the ‘hand built’ Aston Martins at the Newport pagnell factory. Designed by Ian Callum, the car received additional kudos when chosen as the James Bond car in Die another day. The car was the first of the true British ‘super cars ‘ before the phrase became somewhat over used. The Vanquish fitted with the immense V12 engine utilised a lot of cutting edge technology which has been used and modified over subsequent years.

When you start the Aston up the Roar of that V12 as it is stirred into action is a truly wonderful sound. When you engage First gear utilising the clutch-less paddle shift and pull away you can immediately understand why this beautiful car has been called a continent eater. whilst it is undoubtedly a very comfortable cruiser it is certainly no slouch and will get you to 60MPH in five seconds and go all the way up to 190mph!

This Particular vanquish has covered 43000 miles, finished in the Desirable tungsten silver it is the 2+0 configuration so there is plenty of room for the luggage for those European road trips and weekends away. It has a comprehensive history file detailing the previous owners and has recently been serviced and inspected by a renowned Aston martin specialist. This fine piece of appreciating collectable British motoring heritage is absolutely fantastic to drive, but the problem is it is also absolutely gorgeous to just look at and admire so that’s a real quandary for you there.

  • Built to your specification

Full Description

This Absolutely remarkable Commer Q25 was first registered on 27th August 1946.

Obviously at that time new vehicle orders were controlled by the Government as the country recovered from the war There were only limited numbers produced. We have a copy of the ledger from the supplying Dealer which shows this vehicle was delivered to the Tymouth Laundry company when new.

I bought this vehicle after having a glass of wine, remarkbly it was just as fantastic when I went to collect it. The plan with this vehicle was always to restore it to be a promotional vehicle or used as a support vehicle at events like Goodwood revival etc. Alternatively As you will see from the pictures we have had a visualisation done to show the vehicle converted into a period catering vehicle.

Since collecting the vehicle we have got the 2.5 litre petrol engine fired up and it sounds absolutley brilliant, the Vehicle drives backwards and forwards so will be easily capable of restoration on its own drive train.

Rather than restore the vehicle and potentially limit out options or incur costs for making changes i thought we would advertise it with a view to preparing a price to restore and convert the vehicle to the customers specification and wishes. that way they join us on the journey and have as much fun as we will carrying out the work.
If you want it be a catering van or a period restoration please talk to us.

The car bodywork is in remarkable condition and the interior is absolutely lovley . The Vehicle drives really nicely and is an absolute joy to ride in.

The car was previosly owned by a real austin A40 enthusiast and is a testament to the love and care he has bestowed on the car over his years of ownership.

It just sits there and exhudes charm and all our staff here have really taken a shine to this little car, one of the mechanics summed it up as ‘A real straight little gem’ couldn’t have put it better myself.

With the added advantage of a rare factory sunroof this Austin is a little time warp of car offering real enjoyment and whilst it looks stunning it still retains a lot of the original patina.
