This 1969 MGC Roadster finished in Mineral Blue is a UK car and was first registered 4th December 1969 so is this month 50 years old. The mileage shows only 73,000 miles which is believed to be correct. It is road tax and MOT exempt. The car was kept off road for several years and has recently (this year) had an extensive restoration by a leading MG Specialist. The engine has been rebuilt by the famous engineering company Oselli and the car has been little used since then. It runs and drives beautifully with the 3 litre 6 cylinder engine sounding fantastic and giving plenty of performance. The knock on wire wheels have been powder coated in a chrome effect finish. The interior is very tidy with the seats finished in black leather with white piping. The convertible top is in excellent condition and there is a full tonneau cover with the car. These cars are now now rare and hard to find in this condition and make a good investment.

1959 VW BEETLE 1200. 1 OWNER FOR 58 YEARS. FULLY RESTORED. ORIGINAL PANELS. AMAZING!!! £19,995.

Occasionally you get a car that is a bit special! This VW is one of those special cars. It is just amazing. You will need to come and see the car to get the full picture as it is hard to describe just how nice the car is. This VW Beetle 1200 started of life in 1959 when it was purchased by a British serviceman serving in Germany. It was from new a RHD car. He returned to the UK in 1961 with the car and it was registered8th July 1961. It was then part exchanged for a newer model at the local VW dealership where a young apprentice mechanic took a shine to it and purchased it for a modest sum. That young apprentice still owns the car today some 58 years later. He went on to be a top VW engineer and mechanic traveling regularly to Wolfsburg to do all the VW courses. In 1979 the bug was put away in a dry garage and carefully stored until he retired from work and had the time and expertise to restore the bug to its original beauty. The car was completely dismantled and shot blasted back to bare metal. No new panels where needed and the car retains all original panels, original glass and even original headlamps. The car has had an excellent repaint in the original colour of Mango Green. The interior has also had a full and meticulous restoration including the headling that had to be sourced from the USA. Whilst the body was off the floorpan and running gear was serviced as required, the engine was dismantled and refreshed, all tinware was stove enamelled in the original black.

This great little car is a Standard 10 4 door saloon that cost £586 when first registered 16th April 1957 by Philpotts Garage in Ramsgate, Kent. The current owner has had 852 BTO for 5 years and he claims the 39100 recorded miles is correct but I can't warrant that mileage. The cream paintwork really suits this car the crome sparkles on the front trim, wing mirrors and bumpers. There is a 948cc engine and 4 speed gearbox that work well together and propel the car along at a fair pace. There is a stainless steel exhaust system and in recent times the car has had new clutch master, brake master, brake hose, brake shoes, and wheel cylinders. New front shock absorbers as well.

It is mated to the 4 speed manual gearbox that has the overdrive feature. An original RHD car it was delivered to Henleys of London for a Mrs. Norman and subsequently sent overseas before returning to the UK in 1981. The large history file shows that the last owner had the car for 16 years and covered only 8,000 miles in that time. During his ownership the car was restored and invoices show over £25,000 was spent in the process. The rear arches were converted to Coombes garage specification and the work was done by the same man that converted the Coombes cars in the 1960's. The engine runs smoothly with good oil pressure and there is a new aluminium radiator. The car comes with 2 sets of wire wheels and tyres. Painted and Chrome. The interior is in red leather and is generally good for 60 years old but the drivers seat is showing its age. the wooden dash and door trims are very good and there is a rare Derrington steering wheel fitted. This is not a concours show car but a very good car for going to shows and one you can be proud to own. It looks great and goes very well. It is rare to find a good one at this price.

1968 RILEY ELF WITH 160BHP YAMAHA R1 ENGINE AND 6 SPEED BOX. ROAD LEGAL. HUGE FUN. OVER £30K SPENT ON BUILD. BARGAIN AT £9995.

For sale is my 1968 Riley Elf. It is a road-legal track car powered by a Yamaha R1 super bike engine putting out approx. 160bhp. The Riley Elf is a variant on the classic mini sharing the same fun driving characteristics. The cute Elf, sporting a boot with fins, was intended to be an elegant version to get away for the weekend in. The previous bought the car in a fairly standard state in June 2017. He had the Lynx AE conversion done (engine at the front) by Rockey Racing. It is set up primarily for track, but road legal with an MOT to Feb 2021. It is a joy to drive and have old couples and small boys wave at the cute, but boisterous yellow-peril. On track you will be having the most fun of anyone. The build and development costs have been extensive, (think north of £30k) mainly because the car was proffesionally built as well as putting quality parts in wherever required. A long list of components were bought to add on to the Lynx conversion; brakes, suspension, Maniflow exhaust, oil pumps, rad, fan, fuel system, wheels, Safety Devices half roll cage, Tillet B6 screamer seats (£700 each), dash, 6 point harnesses….. all ready to do hill climbs, but only did track days in the end. Elf has a R1 5PW fuel injection engine that has been inspected and passed ‘solid’ by AB Performance, when they inspected and refreshed the gearbox. It is very quick, given it is a very small classic car, but more than that it is fun. It has soul and character as you lean and slide through the corners; more so than the more accomplished track cars. The has just had a front end respray and still has some blemishes here and there as it is for track use.
