This 1936 Talbot-Lago T120 'TT Replica' Sports car, chassis number 85452, boasts a rich history, having been owned by prominent figures like Raymond Mays. It was gifted to him by Anthony Lago.

The car is described as having some minor 'battle scars' which add to its patina, suggesting some wear. However, it starts easily, sounds glorious, and has been well-maintained by the current vendor since 2011 with only general servicing and fuel pump replacement needed. It's considered by commentators to be the nicest example of its type.
