Dordrecht-based Volkswagen dealer Jan Ames and Cor Scheffel started building their motorhomes in 1967. The AMES dealerships were sitting with a large stock of used vans on their premises and could not find a buyer for these, until they came up with the idea of fitting the vans with camper interiors and reselling them. A new trade was born, and they named their newly developed campervans "Amescador". ...

The Porsche 356 Speedster was introduced in 1954 as a sportier version and largely based on the Gläser-built 356 America of 1953 (it even retained its Type 540 designation). The idea to build the Speedster came from Porsche’s U. S. importer Max Hoffman, who recognised the special needs of the American market and convinced his European partners to build specific models to meet them. It was a quite ...

First conceived as the ES30 design study in 1987, the Sprint Zagato (styled by Alfa Romeo Design and Robert Opron, but built at Zagato) caused quite a sensation. Dubbed 'il Mostro' or 'the Monster', this was no conventionally good-looking Alfa Romeo coupe. But such was the overwhelmingly positive reaction to it, that in 1989, Alfa launched a production version at the Geneva Motor ...

Mercedes introduced the Paul Bracq styled W111 Coupé and Cabriolet in late 1960. This stylish model could seat four adults in all comfort, and had all the luxury equipment from the S-Class saloons. Initially only available with the 2, 2 litre straight six engine, it was a comfortable cruiser and very reliable.

The superb example we are offering for sale was delivered at the end of 1963 ...

This is a stunning example of the Honda SL350, completely restored and with Belgian registration. This was Honda's first serious attempt to create the perfect dirtbike at the end of the sixties, and it was a great success in the USA. This very cool and iconic motorbike is in fantastic restored condition and finished in the typical 1971 colour of Candy Topaz Orange. Finding this sought-after bike ...

We are proud to offer this very special Triumph on the market. It is a unique vehicle with lots of competition history and creditable placings in the gruelling 1954 and 1955 Liège-Rome-Liège marathon rally. The car could be best described as a TR2 'Semi-Francorchamps'. It was a former TR2 rally car, fitted almost from new with a unique removable hard-top having the same lines as the true ...

Think 4×4 and you automatically think Land Rover. The best of British has been with us for 76 years now and with the launch of the new Defender there is also an increased interest for the traditional Land Rover line. Its go-anywhere nature makes the Series 1 a truly versatile classic, and its ability to be hosed down makes it one which you shouldn’t be scared of using regardless of the weather ...

The Lancia Flaminia Sport Series 2 was the second Zagato-bodied Lancia Flaminia variant to be unveiled. Debuting in 1960, the Series 2 was built in an updated coupe body style that featured exposed headlights (where the Sport Series 1 had distinct covered headlights). Initially, the Series 2 was powered by a 140hp 2. 5L V6 engine, although this engine was replaced in 1962 by the larger and more powerful ...

The Bentley Continental R was a rather significant car, a true landmark in the history of Bentley. Launched in 1991 it was the first Bentley with an entirely bespoke body since the mid 1960s. It was born at a time when Bentleys were usually little more than rebadged Rolls-Royces, although the Turbo R saloon had shown there was an appetite for something a little sportier. This sublime Grand Tourer ...

The XK140 is the rarest and most sought after model of the Jaguar XK range. It combines the stylish coachwork of the XK120 with the technically more advanced chassis set up of the later XK150. These more refined XK140's have rack and pinion steering, which results in more precise steering and a much more comfortable driving position. Only 2789 examples of the XK140 Drophead Coupé were build, ...

The Mercedes 560 SEL which comes on the market in 1985, is the top version of the W126 generation. Mercedes built 75. 000 examples between 1985 and 1991, and compared to its predecessor W116, this S-class looks much more elegant and modern. The very reliable V8 engine has a capacity of 5547 cc and offers 300 bhp. The performance of this 5, 16 meter long limousine is excellent, as it reaches 100 kph ...

This Cobra is based on a Kirkham chassis with full aluminium body. Ordered by a gentleman who owned a proper AC Cobra 289 from 1964 (of which he ...

The Bentley T1 has always been the rarer sister car to the Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow. 1 out of 10 examples was a Bentley, and technically there was no difference between both cars. The Bentley was often sold to people who intended to drive by themselves (and not driven by a chauffeur), and had a more rounded bonnet to suit the Bentley grille.

Our example was delivered new by Franco Brittannic ...

The Maserati 3500 GT Touring is one of those timeless Italian sportscars with tons of style. Probably one of the finest designs made by coachbuilder Touring Superleggera, and today still an epitome of Italian style. Beside the beauty of the body and interior, the 3500 GT also has a fantastic engine which is an evolution of the famous Maserati racecars of the fifties. How much more pedigree can you ...

Interest for the Jaguar E-Type is still strong, even after the 60th birthday of this iconic sportscar. It must have a lot to do with the fact that it is still one of the most beautiful cars ever made. On top of that, it is a very well engineered sportscar, which offered similar (or better) performance compared to the exotics from the likes as Ferrari or Aston Martin at the time. Another important ...
