The Classic Cars picked for this set are :

1898 Delahaye Type 2 Limousine (GY Letter)

Emile Delahaye founded his automobile works in 1894 and the company produced several models of motor car and commercial vehicle. The illustrated motor car is one of very few surviving Victorian limousines.

1911 Delage Type X Coupe de l‘Auto (GY Large)

The Delage Type X was driven by Paul Bablot, which won the 1911 Grand Prix de Voitures Légeres at Bois de Boulogne and the team prize Coupe de l’Auto. 

1936 Riley Kestrel (UK Letter)

The Kestrel was one of a large number of various specifications from the Riley factory, which finally proved to be too much for the finances and caused the company to be absorbed into the Nuffield Organisation in 1938.

1952 Bentley Mk.VI (UK Large)

Bentley Motors was established in 1919, but in 1931 was taken over by Rolls Royce. The model depicted was the first Bentley to be produced with a standard factory-built body. 

1955 Triumph TR3 (EUR Letter)

The TR3 was the third manifestation of the Triumph sports car with the Standard Vanguard engine. 

1966 Morris Minor 1000 Estate (ROW Letter)

One of its most iconic models of this hugely successful British motor manufacturer was the universally popular Morris Minor designed by Alex Issigonis.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION CONCERNING POSTAGE & PACKING CHARGES

Due to changes by EBAY, and their policy to now charge commission on Postage & Packing Charges,
I am revising how I deal with these. In future I intend to include these charges in the bid/purchase price.
For this item however POSTAGE & PACKING IS INCLUDED. Please note 2 or my items will be sent
by Signed For service, and this has been allowed for in the P& P charges.
Overseas Buyers will have additional postage to pay.
For information, items sent by normal mail, Royal Mail Compensation is limited to a maximum of £20.  
Items which are rare, listed in the SG catalogue over this figure, or which I would find difficult to replace 
if lost, will be sent using either the Signed For or the Special Delivery service.

Please note that these are Royal Mail charges for the secure services offered and not mine.  
They have become essential because of the number of potential false claims levied against the 
Royal Mail and to comply with EBAY and PAYPAL's 'Trackable Policies'.
This protects both you, as the buyer, and me the seller.

Due to EBAY changing its P & P policy, it now charges commission on postage,
irrespective of any invoice issued for multiple purchases.
With many of the items I list, margins are small, so should you purchase multiple items,
I will review each case individually.   I DO NOT PROFIT FROM POSTAGE & PACKING
CHARGES.  If you overpay, I WILL REFUND ANY OVERPAYMENT.
