in 1977. Each Seeley Honda is individual with various states of tune
and this one is no exception. This four owner Seeley has been fully
rebuilt by its current owner between 2001 and 2008 and hasn’t
covered any miles since. The duplex cradle frame made from
Reynolds 531 tubing is chrome plated. The engine has been fully
rebuilt with a Yoshmura half race camshaft and Cehein carburettors.
There are ventilated twin disc front brakes with Grimeca calipers and
a single rear Honda disc brake with stainless steel braided hoses
throughout. All fittings are stainless steel, and there is a new battery
and new tyres fitted, the latter on the original Lester alloy wheels.
This rare Seeley which is in excellent condition now needs a final tune
and shake down to become the new leader of the pack, V5C, no

restoration to near concourse condition following a strip down to the
last nut and bolt. The engine and mechanicals have had a complete
rebuild including bearings, seals, rings, brake linings, cables and other
components. Anything that hasn’t been replaced has been fettled by
an experienced restorer. To compliment the mechanical rebuild the

chrome work has been replated or replaced as necessary and as many
of the original components have been retained. This scooter was
complete and original before this restoration and has been
authenticated by the Lambretta Club GB. Whilst the restoration has
been carried out to a high standard it is not too precious to use. The
vendor has covered approximately 100 miles since the restoration and
it said to ride as new. V5C, MOT and tax to be confirmed Estimates

370 bhp supercharged V8 engine giving it a true super car
performance, with a 0-60mph time of just over five seconds and a top
speed limited to 155mph. The XJR offered similar performance to the

chassis number 153957, engine number 152300, Old English White.
The Volvo 121 series were produced between 1956 and 1970 and

from a Longlife stainless steel exhaust. The Scimitar has been dry
stored in a dehumidified garage for the past two years and has not
been used in that time. The car will now require servicing and minor
recommissioning work before obtaining a current MOT. The Se4 is
only for sale due to the vendor having moved to France and he feels

182 A 1962 Triumph Vitesse Mark I 1600 saloon, registration
number 616 XUX, chassis number HB1342DL, engine number
HB1434HE, blue with white flash. The Herald family was launched in
1959 with a 948cc engine which was available in saloon and
convertible designs, with coupé and estate versions to follow.
Triumph continued to improve the Herald range to cater for all tastes,
but it was evident from the earliest days that the car was no ball of
fire, so in 1962 a reengineered version called the Vitesse 1600 was
introduced. The main distinguishing features of the new model were
the new straight six overhead valve engine, restyled front end with
twin head lamps which were angled seductively giving the new model
an easily identifiable look from the previous models. The Vitesse
offered here is a saloon from the first year of production. It is fitted
with a Webasto style sunroof, blue vinyl interior and the desirable
four speed with overdrive gearbox. This Vitesse has been part of a

4 (Mk 1) was introduced in 1962 at a cost of £641.00, based on the
Herald running gear and as a direct competitor to the Austin Healy
Sprite and MG Midget. Throughout its production run the Spitfire
models always out sold the Sprite and Midget range of cars. The
Spitfire went through Mk 2, Mk 3 and Mk 4 versions with the 1300cc
engine. The final Spitfire had the new 1500cc engine, which gave the
little sports car a true 100 mph top speed. The 1500 went through
some detailed changes during its production run. The main visual ones
being the chrome door handles, wing mirrors and windscreen wipers
being replaced for matte black items in 1976. In 1977 the Spitfire
received TR7 column stalks and the upholstery changed from all vinyl
to houndstooth vinyl and cloth. This Spitfire 1500 has received some
minor power and cosmetic improvements from standard specification.
These include a stainless steel sport exhaust, high lift sports camshaft,
double duck hood and chrome carburettor dash pots. It also has the
desirable four speed overdrive gear box. The history file has five old
MOT’s. The car has been part of a large private collection and has

189 The historically significant one millionth Morris Minor 1000
saloon, registration number 1 MHU, chassis number M-
A2S3/1000000, engine number 503889, originally 9M-U-H/504066,
lilac. The millionth Morris Minor rolled off the No 1 assembly line at
the giant Cowley Works on the 22nd December 1960. Its designer
Alec Issigonis was there with other Nuffield organisation top brass to
savour the success of a car which had captured the hearts of the
British public. The publicity department played their part, issuing a
press release on 4th January 1961 entitled The Morris Minor Million -
a Great Engineering and Commercial Achievement, which went on to
tell of the feat unique in the history of the British Motoring Industry
i.e. the production of one million vehicles of a common design - the
greatest British-made seller in any class. The Millionth Minor, one of
349 Specials produced, 318 were sold on the UK home market, 31
7|P age
left-hand drive models were exported to North America and 9 to
Europe. Based on a standard 1961 2-door saloon, the Millionth
Specials were painted in eye-catching lilac. They received a luxurious
white leather interior with black piping, white door cards, black
carpets and grey sun visors, externally they bore extra chrome rings
on the wheel trims and unique 1,000,000 badgeing. The actual
Millionth Minor was passed from the Nuffield Group publicity
department to the National Union of Journalists on the 20th April
1961 for use in a National fund raising campaign in aid of the British
Red Cross, and was subsequently raffled on National television. The
lucky winner was a Miss Susan George from Wales, who was too
young to drive at the time and it was subsequently sold to the local
postman. The Millionth Minor came to the attention of the current
owner in 1970 when visiting his holiday home in Dyfed Wales, still
going strong, although now painted red. In 1971 the car was involved
in an accident when it slid into a ditch damaging the driver’s side. The
current owner purchased the car soon after the accident and trailered it
back to his Birmingham home. Two further house moves and two
decades passed before restoration took place at Northbrook College in
Worthing, where it received a full restoration by Derek Smith, a
Senior Lecturer in Motor Vehicle Studies. There is a vast history file
with the car within five document wallets containing receipts totalling
approximately £15,000 for the restoration, various magazine and
newspaper articles relating to the car, photographs of the rebuild,
Heritage Certificate and old MOT’s. The car has been dry stored in
recent years due to pressure of work and has only covered a nominal
mileage since the restoration. This is a unique opportunity to purchase
an historically significant vehicle and a small piece of the British
motoring history. RF60, V5, no current MOT, currently on SORN

190 A 1972 Rolls Royce Silver Shadow Mk 1, registration number
HOU 999L, chassis number SRH13625, engine number 13625, Sand
over Astrakhan. The Silver Shadow was launched in October 1965
and had the all new monocoque body and a V8 engine first seen in the
Silver Cloud II. This Silver Shadow comes direct from a large private
collection and has been stored in a car-coon. The history file contains
the original build sheets and car specification which shows that it had
some specially ordered fitments. These included plain Sundym glass,
automatic speed control, Marshall Quartz Iodine headlamps and white
wall radial tyres. There is the original bill of sale from Mann Egerton
and Co Ltd, London Road, Derby for £8734.93, service bills and
seventeen MOT’s including the current MOT to substantiate the
52,450 recorded miles. This is a very well maintained and low
mileage Silver Shadow which is a cut above the average car, and
deserves a new caring owner. V5C, V5, MOT to August 2010, tax

191 A 1948 Rolls Royce HJ Mulliner Sedanca de Ville, registration
Number KXN 617, chassis number WCB55, engine number W183B,

Mrs Elizabeth Stockdale in August 1948. The current custodian of
KXN 617 purchased the car from Jack Barclay Ltd in 1979. He has
maintained KXN 617 to a very high standard over the last 31 years

number EHJ 298H, chassis number 11304422012282, engine number
13098322067730, metallic blue. The W113 series of Mercedes sports
cars were produced between 1963 - 1971 with the 230SL model, the
250SL which was produced for just one year and finally the 280SL.
All models were fitted with a straight six engine with Bosch multi
point fuel injection. The Pagoda name came from the shape of the
hard top which was dished in the centre with high flanks resembling
the shape of a Japanese pagoda roof. The W113 cars were fitted with a
fully retractable soft top, which sat underneath a metal tonneau cover,
and when the hard top is fitted it gives the impression that it is a full
fixed head coupe. The 280SL offered here is an automatic model with
works hard top and soft top, and blue MB-tex interior. This SL formed
part of a private collection and has been dry stored in a car-coon for a
number of years. It will now require recommissioning before going
back into regular road use. V5C, no MOT or tax Estimates £11000 –

193 A 1973 BMW 3.0 CSL, registration number YRW 623L, chassis
number 2285404, engine number 2285404, yellow with black vinyl
roof and black coachlines and script. The BMW CSL (Coupé Sport
Leicht) was the lightweight homologation version of the 3.0 CS.
Utilising thinner gauge steel, bespoke aluminium panels (doors,
bonnet & boot), slimmer glass and less sound deadening, this reduced
the overall weight by 300 lbs compared to the standard CS coupé.
This very rare lightweight coupé is one of 500 right hand drive
examples, this being No 404. The specification and equipment levels
were high with all-round independent suspension, Getrag five speed
gearbox, 3003cc straight 6 engine with Bosch D-Jetronic fuel
injection. The performance figures are still impressive by today’s
standards with 0-60 mph time of 6.9 seconds and a top speed of 149
mph when new. The current vendor purchased the CSL in 1981 and
used it as his everyday transport until 1986. The coupé has been kept
in dry storage since. The indicated 67,000 miles is believed to be
genuine. The history file contains the last MOT dated November
1986, owner’s handbook and various magazine articles. The CSL will
now require careful recommissioning and localised restoration to
retain the originality and should appeal to any BMW collector. V5, no
