Joining it at the sale is a single family ownership from new 1936 MG SA Tickford Drophead Coupe, estimated to fetch between £30,000-£40,000. While also rare, it is has been treated to several previous restoration works, and is offered with a history file that contains the original sales invoice.
A further desirable model with long family ownership, this time 40 years, is a 1972 BMW 3.0 CS, estimated at £45,000-£55,000. It has benefitted from an older, extensive restoration and is supplied with the original green logbook and service book.
Meanwhile, among the highest valued lots are a 1958 Mercedes-Benz 190 SL, estimated at £70,000-£90,000, a 1965 Jaguar E-Type 4.2 Coupe (just one of 1,583 right hand drive models), estimated at £60,000-£70,000, a 2002 BMW Z3 250 California Spyder Evocation, estimated at £60,000-£70,000, and a 1968 Mercedes-Benz 280SL, estimated at £60,000-£80,000.
Mercedes-Benz is proudly represented again with a highly original 1983 500 SL, estimated at £35,000-£45,000. It has low mileage, warranted under 20,000 miles from new, and has only had two owners, while it is also offered with a good history file.
