Unique, distinctive, unmistakably Audi – it challenged the notion of what a sports car should be. The TT is not about getting the details right. It’s about getting them perfect. It’s a philosophy that Audi applied to every element of the TT’s design. 8 | Wilsons Auctions, Prestige Auction, Friday 27th November, 7pm A design that starts with the car’s sweeping domelike roof that flows gracefully into the TT’s powerful shoulder line. Add prominent flared wheel arches, short overhangs at the front and rear end and an imposing wide stance – and you have a sports car that is impossible to forget. Form follows function The TT was unveiled as a concept car in 1995. Just three years later, it was put into production. It was the dawn of a wonderful new era for Audi. And it began with Bauhaus art. The Bauhaus art movement was founded in Germany by the architect Walter Gropius who wanted to focus on ‘fundamental design’, not decoration. He felt that true beauty was to be found in a purity of purpose, in exact proportions and carefully controlled geometry. Audi’s stylists adopted these principles to create the clean, minimal yet award-winningly beautiful TT. Those themes are still evident in every Audi made today.

Styled by Massimo Tamburini, the 916 and its subsequent evolutions established Ducati as one of the world’s foremost brand names. 22 | Wilsons Auctions, Prestige Auction, Friday 27th November, 7pm Universally recognised as icons of automotive art, Ducati motorcycles have been exhibited in some of the world’s foremost museums, including the Guggenheim in New York and the Museum of Modern Art in San Francisco. The original 916 Strada was superseded by the Biposto (two-seat) version and the higherspecification SP. The latter’s engine remained at 916cc but added twin fuel injectors and bigger valves to the package for increased power and torque. The SP reverted to a single seat unit (with white number boards) while gaining superior Öhlins rear suspension. Next came the ultra-exclusive 916SPS derivative, of which only 400 examples were made. Despite the name, the 916SPS enjoyed the advantages of an overbored engine displacing 996cc and delivering a mighty 132bhp at the rear wheel. Capitalising on Carl Fogarty’s World Superbike Championship successes, Ducati introduced the limited edition 916SPS ‘Fogarty Replica’ in 1998 at the behest of UK importer Moto Cinelli. Only 202 were made, number ‘002’ being reserved for the great man himself while ‘001’ was retained for Ducati’s museum in Bologna, with the rest going to wealthy (the list price was £20,000-plus) British enthusiasts. Like the standard 916SPS on which it was based, the ‘Foggy Rep’ used the 996cc motor but in a slightly higher state of tune courtesy of a full titanium exhaust system, larger airbox and altered fuel injection mapping. Other ‘goodies’ included lightweight Marchesini wheels, carbon-fibre seat unit, carbon swinging arm protector and colour-matched mirrors Wilsons Auctions, Prestige Auction, Friday 27th November, 7pm |23 24 | Wilsons Auctions, Prestige Auction, Friday 27th November, 7pm LOT NUMBER: 18 PRICE ACHIEVED: 14 X 22CT ASSORTED ASIAN GOLD BRACELETS XRF TESTED APPROXIMATE WEIGHT: 162 GRAMS Wilsons Auctions, Prestige Auction, Friday 27th November, 7pm |25 LOT NUMBER: 19 PRICE ACHIEVED: ROLEX OYSTER PERPETUAL DAYTONA BI-METAL WITH WHITE MOTHER OF PEARL DIAL MODEL NO. 16523 INDIVIDUAL REF: A959270 COST NEW: £14,200 WITH BOX, PAPERS & LINKS The Oyster Perpetual Cosmograph Daytona is the consummate Rolex chronograph.

To this day the Mediterranean flair of the coastal town still exerts a magical attraction on well-known actors, artists and people in the fashion industry from all over the world. The narrow little houses in red and terracotta clustered tightly around the picturesque natural harbour provide the perfect backdrop for stars and celebrities. Even today, the international jet set gathers in Portofino to enjoy the relaxed, laid-back lifestyle of southern Europe. The classically elegant Portofino watch family is a subtle reflection of this lifestyle. The history of the Portofino watch family began in the late 1970s. Back then, IWC noted a steady demand for simple, classic models. The elegant IWC Lépine open-face pocket watch (Reference 5201) served as the basis for the new watch line: its dial was turned through 90 degrees and equipped with a moon phase display. And that was it; the new “pocket-watch style wristwatch” Reference 5251, which was unveiled in 1984, went by the name “Portofino”. Since then, the Portofino collection has become one of IWC’s most successful watch families: an expression of understatement and good taste.
