Sports racers headed for auction and new A110 version ...

Hot on the heels of the successful conclusion of the May edition, auction Gooding have now announced the first consignments to the Europe-based Geared Online sale scheduled for mid June. These first highlights include three interesting sports racers, headlined by this Ford GT40. It is actually the very last GT40 chassis built in period and was not fully assembled until relatively recently, having spent the first 40 years of its life as a rolling chassis. Built to the ultimate 'JWA Gulf' specifications, chassis GT40P/1085 is estimated to sell for GBP 2 million.
Another legendary machine on offer is this late Porsche 962C. Sold new to Brun Motorsport, it was used for just two races in 1990 and has survived in remarkably original condition. Virtually untouched for the last three decades, 962-163 has a pre-sale estimate of GBP 800,000 - 1,000,000.
Star of the 1958 Geneva Motor Show and a Perry Como television show, this Lotus Eleven has had an unusual history. For the last 45 years, it has been owned and enjoyed by noted Lotus historian David Morgan.
This week, Volkswagen offered a first glimpse of the new Polo GTI due to be released next month, while Alpine have combined the high performance A110S engine with the more luxurious Legende chassis to create the fast but relatively comfortable A110 Legende GT of which just 300 will be built.
