What’s got David Brown Automotive feeling so patriotic?
Best of British

The Diablo GT1 Stradale is everything a Lamborghini should be – a brazen, bright yellow behemoth that qualifies for a space on the bedroom wall of almost any teenager. It was, if you will, Lamborghini’s final flourish before Audi rescued the company from impending financial doom, and went about reinvigorating it in ruthlessly Teutonic fashion.

Join us for this auction of a small, very select collection of cars, in which every piece is a stone-cold classic. There is a stunning AC Cobra replica, from the British bespoke custom outfitters Pilgrim, which is certain to turn heads. A Ferrari 308 GTB Quattrovalvole, model year 1983, one of the most recognisable cars in the world, made famous by Tom Selleck in the TV series Magnum PI. And a Jaguar XK120 DHC cabriolet, model year 1954, one of the greatest sports cars ever made. With any one of these cars, you will definitely be riding in style. Be sure not to miss this incredible collection.



Since one of his ex-girlfriends encouraged him to apply for a job with Simon Kidston at Brooks (now Bonhams) over 20 years ago, Max Girardo has established himself as one of the key faces in the classic car world. After 10 years at RM managing the auction house’s European activities and, of course, commanding the rostrum in inimitable fashion, Max has founded Girardo & Co., offering a diverse cross-section of high-quality classics from an intimate gallery-like showroom in Fulham.
Noble will build just 50 examples of its new M600 Speedster, half of which will shimmer in their exposed carbon-fibre dresses. In losing the roof, the Leicestershire-based company has given the six-year-old supercar a much-needed aesthetic update. Most drop-tops are not as handsome as their fixed-roof counterparts, but we think the M600 Speedster bucks that trend.
Is this the best car commercial made this century? We certainly think so...
