470 bhp V12 super saloonComprehensive service historyThe Rapide is a four-door, four-seater, high-performance sports saloon, which Aston Martin introduced in early 2010. It was first presented as a concept car at the North American International Auto Show in 2006 and the production version was shown at the 2009 Frankfurt Motor Show. The Rapide name is a reference to the Lagonda Rapide, a four-door, four-seater saloon produced by Lagonda, now a part of Aston Martin. The new Rapide is the company's first four-door fastback saloon since the Lagonda which was discontinued in 1990. It is based on the DB9 and underpinned by the Aston Martin VH platform. The first cars rolled off the production line in May 2010, initially built at a dedicated plant at the Magna Steyr facility in Graz, Austria.This example is presented in the very attractive colour combination of metallic black with a black leather interior with red stitching and silver wheels. The Rapide still to this day looks sleek and modern with this example no exception boasting just 51,000 miles from new. Rear entertainment screens were fitted at the factory giving this four-seater rocket ship a top-of-the-range spec. The service record shows the majority at Aston Martin main dealers having also just been freshly serviced. This example has been subject to a category S insurance loss, we have a photo showing the minor damage to the front driver’s side wing only, this has been professionally repaired. A tour around the car today and you swiftly realise this V12-powered four-door saloon with perhaps some of the coolest rear seats presents very well indeed. Offered to auction with a UK V5C registration document, comprehensive history file and MoT test certificate, this Rapide looks like great value.

The history of Aston Martin’s V8 saloon is well documented but what is less known perhaps is the final series, or Oscar India (October Introduction), especially when specified with the extremely rare (and in this instance original) dogleg ZF manual gearbox which sets itself in a league of its own with, according to the AMHT, 26 being built and only 15 of which were right hand drive. It should thus be noted that this is a genuine factory manual example and not mistaken for a later conversion.Still on the original 1983 registration and with matching numbers as confirmed by the enclosed Heritage Certificate, the factory options at the time were a manual gearbox, two rear fog lamps, Cibie headlights in the front grille and, interestingly, a rear silencer delete.Also enclosed is a large history file going back to delivery in the early eighties including the original stamped service book, owner’s manual, warranty card, old MoT’s and numerous invoices. The registration document shows only three owners and is probably the lowest produced configuration of the Oscar India with only twelve right hand drive examples complete with a manual gearbox ever made.Originally purchased through Victor Wilson Ltd. in Edinburgh by Robertson Baxter Ltd, (Distillers) in the original and present colour scheme of Raven Black with a contrasting burgundy leather interior. There then follows a comprehensive service history as well as a number of period upgrades including a complete engine rebuild to 5.7 Vantage capacity and X-Pack specification with new liners, pistons, valves, high-profile cams and larger carburettors and inlet manifold. Additionally, the correct ZF five-speed gearbox has been rebuilt with a short-shift added and new clutch. A full-flow, oil-cooler with thermostat has also been fitted as well as a Harvey Bailey handling kit offering a much-improved handling and roadholding driving experience with lower & stiffer suspension, rebuilt dampers, stiffer front anti-roll bars as well as the additional of a rear anti-roll bar. Also included is the original black leather owner’s manual (with pencilled notes), the original Aston Martin warranty and service voucher booklet as well as receipts for all work in current ownership which includes numerous works such as a gearbox rebuild by noted specialist Rikki Cann, an upgraded Powerlite high-torque starter motor, restored leather interior, re-lacquer of all interior woodwork and fresh carpets and door cards and finally, the engine rebuilt to Vantage X-Pack specification by Aston Martin specialists Oselli to the tune of £45,000 bringing works in recent years to over £67,600 since it was purchased by the current owner. This really does represent one of the most special and thoroughbred Aston Martins currently on offer.

Please read our terms and conditions With V5C, HPI clear AA badge & St Christopher on dash will be retained (shown in photos) View video Information from the owner: General History up to 2024 This car was bought new in November 1933 by my father, then a serving Flying Officer with the RAF who had just returned from a 3 year posting with No 27 Squadron in the North Western Frontier region of India (now the Pakistan/Afghanistan border areas) flying the Westland Wapiti” 2 seater Bomber/Army support aircraft and had saved enough to pay the £200 for his new J2 At the time he was based at RAF Henlow and during the 6 month guarantee period there was a good bit of correspondence between him and the MG company, I have copies of the Abingdon responses from which it seems that he had problems with performance 'maximum speed only 68 mph' and other small matters including vibration. It seems that in April 1934 a new gearbox and remote were fitted plus new front engine bearings etc. These seem to have been dealt with promptly and efficiently. Mileage by then was over 4,000 Sometime in 1934 father and friend took the car on a long tour into Southern Germany and there are several photos taken on that trip including loading (or unloading) onto channel ferry, just guessing Newhaven/Dieppe The next report is it taking part in the Great West Motor Club’s London to Bournemouth trials at the end of March 1935 and I have a photo of it taken at the Bovington Camp section. As father married later in April that year it seems unlikely that he was the entrant so he must have traded it in by then for the 2 Litre Lagonda he next had. The only clue as to its location after 1935 is a repair plate on the radiator header tank by Sercks of Maidstone, Kent and a tax disc issued by London C C expiring end of June 1938. The next phase in the story is that in 1937 or 1938 the car was bought by a young Lincolnshire man, Colin Muncaster. I was able to contact the widow of Colin’s brother, Ray, and she (Phyllis) was able to tell me quite a lot and the rest of the history comes from her and another name she mentioned, Mike Hewson, who lived very near the Muncasters in Horncastle. Mike Hewson’s father was with Colin when he bought the car and they took it to the British Grand Prix held at Donington Park in 1937 or 38. Colin was keen on some competition driving and had the car worked on by the well known MG fettler Harry Lester. The engine had a Laystall crank fitted, cylinder head modified with polished ports enlarged to 1 1/8 inch dia and bigger 1 1/8 inch carburetters fitted. The brakes were converted to hydraulic using components from a Wolseley Hornet with 9 inch drums. Ignition was by 'Scintilla' magneto. Phyllis told me that Colin and Ray were coming home from the pub when they ran off the road near Horncastle and Ray, being thrown forward, lost his front teeth on the dashboard. She asked if the marks were still there on the aluminium panel. I looked and indeed they were and still are! I imagine this was the cause of the bent chassis discovered during restoration. Apparently during the war Colin bought another MG (understood to be a J1 salonette) to use that engine to 'save' the original 'good' engine until war was over, but the car was taxed for a while in 1941 and 1943. Colin was born in 1914 but for some reason wasn’t called up for military service. He had a Garage business and after the war worked for the Council. I have photocopies of ALX 934 taken from late 1930’s on some showing his Hill Climb runs and trophies won, all presumably in the Lincolnshire general area up to about 1952 when by then it was fitted with 16 inch rear wheels. The 19 inch wheels went back on for everyday use until 1955 when it was pushed into an open ended Nissen hut until bought by Harry Dickinson of Bucknall, Lincs, in 1978 where it sat unused for another 27 years until I bought it from Harry’s widow. Before that a chance conversation with another J2 owner at a car show in 2005 led to the discovery that father’s old car still existed and was for sale. I went up to Lincolnshire to see it; very much as I would have expected after so long unused although the engine had been started and run occasionally. It seemed complete and original and there was a large amount of spare parts included. My offer was accepted and we hauled it back to Suffolk a week or so later in July. It soon became apparent that it needed much more than a tidy up and it looked like a total strip down was needed, everything that could wear was worn and the woodworm had consumed most of the plywood trim. The first thing to do was to drain and refill the engine oil, water in radiator, connect to a battery and take a fuel feed from a petrol can. Starter pushed, and engine started and ran strongly, still on its magneto, so this was encouraging. So began over 2 years of work whenever I was able. The most useful tool was the angle grinder to cut off all the rusted up nuts and bolts and with body off I could see what had to be done. The body and chassis went up to David Wall in Wroxham where he repaired and replaced any damaged and rotten timber and re panelled in steel or aluminium where necessary. The chassis was straightened and new stubs welded on the rear chassis cross members to take the spring trunnions. Other steel fittings, plates, brackets, stainless battery box etc. were made up for me by the people at the metal fabricators whom I then worked for. A trip to Sports and Vintage in Shrewsbury supplied me with all the other bits and pieces I thought I needed as well as relining the clutch plate. This was followed by a trip to Jones Springs to recondition the springs. This lot must be collected by 12.30pm on Friday 25th October. If the buyer has not collected by this time it will automatically be removed and placed into storage, incurring a removal charge of £100 + VAT, to include the first week of storage, unless otherwise noted.

Registration No: GX 2487 Chassis No: OH10116 MOT: ExemptA genuine Cozette 'blown' 'low chassis' model supplied new as a fabric-bodied TourerComprehensively restored by well-respected marque aficionado Peter WhenmanAccompanied by a large history file supplied in two full suitcases!Recently subject to magneto, dynamo and starter motor overhauls by Overton EngineeringHaving established its reputation by winning the Moscow - St Petersburg Reliability Trial of 1910 with a 30hp Six, Lagonda concentrated mainly on the production of light cars before reverting to sporting and luxury models in the mid-1920s with the introduction of the 14/60. The latter abandoned the firm's traditional in-unit gearbox in favour of a midships-mounted transmission, but of greater technical interest was the engine. Designed by Arthur Davidson, the 2-Litre Four featured twin camshafts, mounted high in the block, operating inclined valves in hemispherical combustion chambers. Power output of this advanced design was a highly respectable 60bhp. For the 1929 season, a 'low chassis' Speed Model was introduced, featuring revisions to the frame's front end and a higher-compression engine fitted with twin carburettors.The Speed model had resulted from the factory's Le Mans effort of 1928, when the 2-Litre driven by Andre D'Erlanger and Douglas Hawkes had finished 11th overall in the 24-Hour endurance classic. A classic example of racing improving the breed, the 'low chassis' 2-Litre possessed markedly superior handling characteristics courtesy of its lower centre of gravity. In 1930 a supercharged version was introduced, with the 'blower' mounted vertically in front of the engine, which was fitted with a stronger crankshaft, while a 3-Litre rear axle beefed up the transmission. A Powerplus supercharger was specified at first, but most 'blown' 2-Litres came with a Cozette. Thus equipped, a 'low chassis' 2-Litre was capable of up to 90mph.Supplied new to the South East London area on the 18th May 1932, 'GX 2487' was originally specified as a Speed Model with Cozette Supercharger and bodied as a four seat, fabric constructed tourer. Little is known of its early history up to 1953, when a record of ownership started being kept and all owners are traceable from this period until the present day. The rare Lagonda is known to have been exported to Singapore during the 1970s by a member of The Malaysia and Singapore Vintage Car Register with whom it was found in a neglected state (and missing the all important Cozette supercharger) in his possession by the most recent previous owner. After much persuasion, 'GX 2487' was finally bought in 1985 and was to be repatriated to the UK four years later. Once back home in 'Blighty', the Lagonda was entrusted to the late Peter Whenman, the pre-eminent restorer of Vintage Lagondas, for a comprehensive restoration which would be completed in 1994.During the restoration, OH10116 was disassembled to the bare chassis and the body was overhauled with a new ash frame to the original specification and re-covered with new fabric. New cycle wings and a new bonnet were fabricated using traditional methods in aluminium and the interior was entirely reupholstered to original specification in high quality Dark Green hide. Mechanically, the 2-Litre power unit and four-speed gearbox were also given similar treatment, with a new cylinder head supplied by Peter Jones of Wessex Workshops. The all-important supercharger was also reinstated in the form of a replica Cozette unit. A new Black ‘double-duck’ hood and tonneau cover were also supplied and fitted to the original frame with a new set of side screens made especially. Finally, the original Lagonda radiator was treated to a re-core and entirely new 21” wheels were commissioned.After completion, the Lagonda was collected from Hartley Witney and was pressed straight into service, being driven all the way to its new, loving home in the North East of England. Thereafter, ‘GX 2487’ saw its first outing attending the Le Mans 24 Hour race in France in 1995, in the company of other members of the Lagonda Owners Club who were celebrating the 60th anniversary of Lagonda’s Le Mans victory in 1935. The improvements didn’t halt after the restoration, however, and new brake drums from Wessex Workshops were fitted in 1996 (with the original finned brake drums, which were standard on supercharged cars, accompanying the car to sale). Recent works to this 'blown' Vintage Tourer have included a service, magneto overhaul, starter motor overhaul and sump gasket change by Overton engineering in Shoeburyness, Essex, to correct some minor running issues and an oil leak, which were commissioned by the vendor earlier in 2024.'GX 2487' is accompanied by one of the largest history files we have come across (two whole suitcases!) that comprises two voluminous ring binders attesting to the history and restoration work, with a hand-written “costing” document equating to some £70,184 of spend between 1990 and 1994. The files document back to 1954 and also hold correspondence with then Technical Advisor to the Lagonda Club, Ivan Forshaw. The car is today rated by the vendor as ‘excellent’ regarding both its mechanical and cosmetic condition. Now to be offered to the market by the vendor due to needing funds for a business venture, 'GX 2487' could be one of the finest examples of a Speed Model Lagonda in existence today.PLEASE NOTE: After investigation we have established that 'GX 2487' is not fitted with the original engine block, the replacement unit which has been fitted to the car since its restoration is numbered SL 926.

Registration No: AYE 979 Chassis No: Z 10464 MOT: ExemptSupplied new to Harris and Russell Ltd of Tottenham Court Road, LondonIn current ownership since 2007 and continually improved throughout the vendor's ownershipA comparably late 3-Litre with the stronger ‘ZM’ type chassisRe-bodied in the late-1980s/early-1990s in the style of Vanden Plas tourerThe Lagonda 3 Litre began production in late 1929 as successor to the 2 Litre. In fact, the 2 Litre continued to be made in various guises until 1933, while the 3 Litre was phased out the following year. The early 3 Litres utilised a Z-Type 10ft 9in wheelbase chassis which was an extended and modified version of that employed by the four-cylinder 2 Litre. Elongated from the scuttle forwards, the revised frame could thus accommodate the newcomer's six-cylinder engine. The 'heavy pattern' Z-Type gearbox and ENV rear axle were used providing a final drive ratio of 4.1:1. The 3 Litre model's initial bore and stroke stood at 72mm x 120mm providing 2931cc capacity. These earlier engines are instantly identified by six camshaft tunnel covers on the side of the block. On later cars this capacity was increased to 3181cc with a bore of 75mm - the larger engine is recognised by corresponding 3 plate camshaft tunnel covers and a deeper rocker cover to accommodate longer valve stems. Both engines boasted a robust seven-bearing crankshaft and a fully flooded roller cam follower and valve actuation design. This provided a quiet and smooth operation with a longer operating life than was commonly achieved amongst its peers.A true thoroughbred, the 3 Litre attracted a select clientele and enjoyed sundry competition success (most notably Lord de Clifford's fine performances aboard a Works 3-Litre on the 1931 Monte Carlo and 1932 RAC rallies). Testing a Lagonda 3-Litre in 1929, The Motor reckoned it was ‘difficult to imagine a car nearer an ideal than one which combines the full performance of a speed model with the top gear performance of the best modern touring car.’ The 3-litre was, indeed, exceptionally flexible, being able to accelerate from 5mph to its maximum of around 80mph in top gear. Motor Sport summed up the 3-Litre Lagonda as ‘a very pleasant car of very high quality and possessing that indefinable but very definite character which stamps the thoroughbred in every walk of life’ – sentiments with which we can only concur.Chassis number ‘10464’ was supplied new to Harris and Russell Ltd of Tottenham Court Road, London being first registered on the 16th of October 1933, initially clothed in Pillarless Saloon coachwork. Retained by them until 1942, the later wartime history is unknown, before being acquired by eccentric car collector Henry Elland of Waddens Brook Estate. Upon the passing of Mr. Elland in 1984, a large auction of the collection was held, through which the Lagonda was purchased by Robert Goodchild of Chapel-on-le-Frith. However, by this stage, the coachwork was beyond renovation, and it is believed that Mr Goodchild fitted a Tourer coachwork by Mulliner. Sold at a H&H auction in Buxton in 1996, the 3-Litre passed through a couple of other owners and was provided with another Vanden Plas style Tourer body, before being exported to Belgium.Repatriated by the current owner in 2007, the vendor is a long-term Lagonda Club and Aston Martin Owners Club member, and ‘10464’ has been well-used throughout the vendor’s custodianship, on multiple clubs runs and tours, including to Le Mans and of the Yorkshire Dales. Continuously improved during the time with the vendor, with notable works comprising new hood, sidescreens (never used), hood bag and tonneau cover costing c.£5,750 in 2008; engine overhaul and repainting to the cost of c.£11,800 in 2014; further engine improvements in 2017 costing c.£2,200; refurbished water pump £550 and a re-cored radiator £1,700 in 2019; and improvements to the Borg & Beck clutch in 2023 costing some £880, as well as multiple services. Starting readily and both running and driving well during the recent photography session, the Lagonda is accompanied by a history file comprising Lagonda Club records, a collection of invoices, and a current V5C document.

Lot 66
Registration No: TJH 525D Chassis No: DB6/2453/R MOT: ExemptSupplied new via Plough Motors to Aegues Properties Ltd of Cheltenham and initially registered as 'GDD 222D'In single ownership from 1972 - 2024, by which time it had been repainted from Silver Birch to Fiesta Red and granted its current 'TJH 525D' number plateMatching chassis and engine numbers and desirable ZF 5-speed manual gearboxAccompanying paperwork dates back to 1971 when the DB6 underwent a major service at the factoryTreated to a partial re-trim and new battery by the vendor. Running and driving with decent oil pressure but would benefit from further recommissioningUnveiled at the 1965 London Motor Show, the DB6 was the first Aston Martin model to be engineered following the company's move from Feltham to Newport Pagnell. Although a direct development of the DB5, with the same visage, the newcomer enjoyed notably better high-speed stability thanks to the provision of a Kamm tail, and superior interior space courtesy of a 3.7-inch longer wheelbase and taller roofline. Grafted over a sheet steel platform chassis, the four-seater's hand-finished aluminium panels helped contribute to a claimed kerb weight of 3,232lbs that was actually only 17lbs heavier than its predecessor. Praised by the contemporary motoring press for its poise, the DB6 employed all-round coil-sprung suspension, four-wheel disc brakes and rack-and-pinion steering. Powered by the famous Tadek Marek designed 3995cc DOHC straight-six engine, the model boasted some 325bhp and 288lbft of torque in uprated Vantage tune and could be had with five-speed ZF manual or three-speed Borg Warner automatic transmission. A contemporary road test found a manual DB6 Vantage to be capable of 0-60mph in 6.3 seconds and 150mph. A total of 1,327 MkI Saloons were produced between October 1965 and the MkII's July 1969 arrival. According to its accompanying British Motor Industry Heritage Trust Certificate, chassis DB6/2453/R was completed on 20th January 1966 and despatched to Plough Motors (Stroud Valley) Ltd some six weeks later. Originally finished in Silver Birch, the Aston Martin’s impressive specification also encompassed the more powerful Vantage engine, ZF 5-speed manual transmission, heated rear windscreen, powered aerial and chrome wire wheels with three-eared spinners. Supplied new to Aegues Properties Ltd of Cheltenham, the DB6 was returned to the factory for a major service during November 1971, by which time it belonged to G.A. Darlington Esq of Newton Hall, Suffolk and had exchanged its first number plate ‘GDD 222D’ for the current one ‘TJH 525D’. Repainted Fiesta Red prior to being bought by C.E. McKinney Esq the following year, the 2+2-seater remained in his care until 2024. A pilot by profession, Mr McKinney used the Aston Martin for commuting in the 1970s but only on high days and holidays thereafter. Invoices on file show that the DB6 has covered a mere 20,000 miles since having its cylinder head overhauled by W. Rennie-Roberts of Colchester during April 1975 (the warranted odometer reading stands at just 98,000). Other bills from Aston Martin Lagonda, Aston Service Dorset, Puddleduck and Rikki Cann attest to ongoing maintenance. The brake system has been refurbished (2002-2003), the starter motor rejuvenated (2010) and the fuel pump renewed (2011). Entrusted to Classic and Retro of Sible Hedingham in late 2012 at a recorded 97,585 miles, the 2+2-seater had attention paid to its ignition system, interior trim (headlining, carpets, rear seat base etc), window rubbers and brakes not to mention being treated to new wire wheels and tyres. Further improved by Woodbridge Classic Cars at a cost of £2,947.18 during June 2015, they replaced the engine and fuel tank mounts, installed new steering rack gaiters, changed the left-hand servo gaskets and tuned the triple Weber carburettors. Reluctantly put up for sale after more than half a century due to the physicality of driving it, ‘TJH 525D’ entered the current ownership in January this year. A lifelong Aston Martin enthusiast, the vendor has partially re-trimmed the cabin (new front seat facings and boot carpet) and begun the recommissioning process. Starting readily during our recent photography session (August 2024) and driven to and from the location, the DB6 recorded good oil pressure but would nevertheless benefit from more mechanical fettling. The underside appeared sound during our cursory inspection, with evidence of new sills and jacking points being fitted in the past. The seller had intended to return the 2+2-seater to its initial Silver Birch hue. However, the acquisition of another DB6 whilst waiting for a slot at his preferred body shop has meant that ‘TJH 525D’ is now surplus to requirements. Pleasingly retaining its original Vantage engine albeit with the bonus of comparatively fresh Weber carburettors and a stainless steel exhaust, this much-loved and archetypal British GT is now ready for its next long-term custodian.

Registration No: AUA 170 Chassis No: D10727 MOT: August 2025Re-bodied on the request of the then owner and aspiring trials driver Maurice Zwick when three years oldCampaigned before WW2 as the Zwick Rapier on the Land's End, Exeter and Edinburgh Trails etcRaced at Goodwood, Silverstone, and Great Auclum after WW2 by John Marshall, Margaret 'Peggy' Harman, and AC GriffithsSupplied with a history file with numerous period photographs of the Rapier in competitionIntroduced at the 1933 Olympia Motor Show, the Lagonda Rapier was intended to capitalise on the growing market for small capacity sports cars. Although based around a conventional ladder-frame chassis complete with all-round semi-elliptic leaf-sprung suspension and four-wheel Girling 13-inch drum brakes, the newcomer boasted a highly advanced engine. The work of consultant Thomas 'Tim' Ashcroft the 1104cc four-cylinder unit utilised twin overhead camshafts to produce a quoted 50bhp @ 5,400rpm. Praised by the contemporary motoring press for its performance, refinement and agility, the model was supplied in bare chassis guise only and bodied via the likes of E.D. Abbott, John Charles, Maltby and E.J. Newns. Prohibitively expensive to manufacture, the Rapier was dropped when the Staines firm went into administration during 1935. Convinced that the reborn Lagonda (LG Motors Ltd) had made a mistake, Tim Ashcroft, William Oates and Nevil Brockelbank secured the rights to the small capacity sports car shortly thereafter. Operating as Rapier Cars Ltd of Hammersmith they contributed a further 46 cars to the total production tally of 470 before closing their doors in 1938.Beginning life as an Abbott-bodied Tourer, chassis D10727 was road registered as ‘AUA 170' on the 10th August 1934. Purchased by aspiring trials driver Maurice Zwick in 1936 (who would go on to contest five Monte Carlo rallies), the Lagonda soon proved a competitive mount. Buoyed by podiums on the Land's End, Exeter, and Edinburgh Trials during 1937, Zwick had the Rapier re-bodied (from the bulkhead back) and supercharged. With little to show for his endeavours in 1938, he side-lined ‘AUA 170' storing it at Thompson & Taylor's Brooklands premises during WWII. Purchased by Weybridge garage owner John Marshall, the Lagonda was converted into a circuit racer - complete with a lightweight body and strengthened engine internals - in time to enter the 1st BARC Goodwood Race Meeting in 1948. Campaigned by subsequent keeper Mrs Margaret `Peggy' Harman in 1949-1950 at Silverstone and Great Auclum etc, she entrusted its maintenance to Maurice Leo.Initially used by the next owner Joe Branson, as a daily commuter, he went on to win the Lagonda Club's prestigious Arthur Fox Trophy aboard `AUA 170' in 1958. Somewhat tired by the time Charles Hoskins of Market Rasen acquired it, restoration work began in the 1980s and had yet to be completed when the gentleman who completed the restoration acquired the Rapier in 2004. Purchased by the previous keeper in 2016 from H&H, the Rapier required recommissioning at this stage and was provided with over £5,000 worth of expenditure that comprised new rear axle seals, front brake overhaul, new exhaust system, and a service. Purchased by the vendor most recently, the Rapier was again not running, with the vendor recommissioning the car, and since ‘AUA 170’ has thankfully been in regular use. Running and driving excellently for the photography session, the Rapier will be driven to the sale. Supplied with a history file with in-depth history details of ‘D10727’, instruction book, previous MOTs, a current MOT until August 2025 with no advisories, numerous period competition photographs, and the V5C.
