1962 Austin Healey
Presented by Machines with a Mission, the MK2 Austin Healey combines the great looks of the pre MK2A with the desirable three SU carburetors and rare enter shift. Therefore, we find this spec. the most desirable of all Healeys. This particular 1962 Austin Healey “big” Healey was brought back from the USA to Europe in the late nineties by the current owner and received a professional ground up restoration including sensible upgrades like a blueprinted engine and a fast road camshaft. Since then, the car has only driven 2000 kms.

Jaguar C Type
This beautiful C Type Jaguar is a rare beast indeed and is probably the closest you can buy short of an original C-Type with its stratospheric prices. According to the previous owner who commissioned the assembly of the car, he purchased a chassis and an original 3.4 Litre engine block from the Beaulieu Autojumble in 1999. To match the chassis with the engine, the car has then been given the chassis number XKC044 and as such has been identified in the German registration documents as well as in the 2005 FIA papers. A new aluminium body was commissioned and the work carried out by Shape Craft engineering Northampton, on an original C-Type jig.
