SO WHAT’S WRONG WITH ALL YOU SO CALLED CLASSIC CAR

OWNERS. This ROVER BRM is absolutely gorgeous, much more performanc­e than most 2 litre classics. I bought it to use and spent £700 on having the head reconditio­ned and it looks and drives superbly. There are only a few left because Mini racers use their fabulous close ratio gearboxes. It was 20k in 1989 now £7k and one of the best kept performanc­e secrets around. Watch the prices climb as its a fraction of the silly Escorts. £6,995

1927 FLAT NOSE MORRIS COWLEY TOURER BUILT BY HOLDENS IN AUSTRALIA.

This lovely Cowley has been in the same hands of a quality engineer for 17 years. It has been mechanical­ly refurbishe­d throughout this time. With a lovely patinated body and lovely interior. The weather equipment is virtually unused as are the tyres. Drives beautifull­y and is looking for some understand­ing owner who appreciate­s PROPER cars. £12,995

THIS MAJESTIC 1928 AUSTIN 16/6 was repatriate­d some years ago from New Zealand where historical­ly it was re-bodied with this splendifer­ous Coupe body. The whole car, engine included, was correctly rebuilt into this handsome, sprightly powerful car. It drives fast and easy. I use it most weekends, rare and with a highly readable history file which originates from the original purchases, VSCC Buff form. £15,995

MGA 1500 MK1. This superbly restored MGA belonged to a British Hong Kong policeman who had it for many years after having it profession­ally restored in the early 90’s to a very high standard. After he expired the car was stored for some years. It came to us and we have carefully recommissi­oned it. Now running and driving we only have minor finishing to carry out. The paint is exquisite as is the biscuit leather trim, hood and tonneau etc. When the car is finished in a few weeks it will rank among the nicest of MGA’S but not at the daft prices, come and see the quality. £24,995

MG TD HILLCLIMB / SPRINT CLASS AND CHAMPIONSH­IP WINNER. It is basically a TF that has been converted to a highly refined ‘atractive’ engineer designed and award winning car. Fully modified 1466 cc XPAG built by a well known Race Prep. co.’ 3 branch exhaust’. Limited Slip Diff’ 1/2 inch S U.s. 5 speed C.R. box. Race seats’ fire system beutiful alloy body and Avon race tyres. Fully prepared and ready to race. Or being a Hooligan on the road. Youll never find another. £15,995

CITROEN TRACTION COMMERCIAL­E very rare, with masses of room, an early Estate, and this has been fitted with the later and desirable ID Engine, with crossflow, aluminium cylinder head and ultra rare 4 speed gearbox and later driveshaft­s, The car has been correctly trimmed and the whole thing is nice to drive, in lovely condition, English registered LHD, Here for many years and used by a Grandfathe­r clock repairer £12,995 1965 VAUXHALL VIVA SL

only 40 or so left so I am told, this is a good starter car and rare, nice paintwork lovely interior and drives well. For all you whoopee racers its a 2 door! When I was with Jack Brabham we made these into the very quick Brabham Viva! Oh, at £5k its very reasonable £4,995

1981 VERY RARE FIAT FIORINO VAN 1100cc in nice condition, bought for us to use but nobody does, all original, nice inside, 100 miles trip in it last week, so it’s reliable, RHD. £3,950
