The Background
SS Cars Limited of Coventry manufactured the SS Jaguar 100 between 1936 and 1940. They intended to reflect the 100mph maximum speed and approved by Sir William Lyons, the model name “Jaguar” was given to the range.
Only 198 SS100’s were built with the 2.5 litre and 116 with the more powerful 3.5 engine. Cars in good condition now reach in excess of £300,000. With the rarity becoming difficult to track these cars down, boutique car manufacturer, Suffolk Sports Cars set the standard in terms of reproducing this iconic sports car.
Suffolk Sports Cars went in to liquidation in 2020 and now the cars they reproduced from the 1930s to 1950s are surely going to be a desirable part of the classic car world.
Based around a substantial box-section chassis tailored to accept XJ6 suspension, brake, steering and drivetrain assemblies, the production version was predominantly supplied in 'home-build' form at the rate of four a year until 1996 when the manufacturing rights were purchased by Roger Williams of Suffolk Sportscars. Reborn and refined as the Suffolk SS100, the design remains in production to this day.
The History
C484 DUG is resplendent in a dark metallic racing green, set off with the light green leather upholstery and dark green carpets it looks period from the colour scheme and is set off with the black canvas roof.
The seller, from an engineering background has put many hours of work in to producing this SS100 replica, stamped by Suffolk and registered as a SS Sports car it is road legal and ready to drive from collection. The cars build was completed early 2021.

The car only has 302 miles on the clock and as you would expect is new with no signs of wear whatsoever.
The Paperwork
The car as mentioned is validated through Suffolk Sports car and comes with accommodating documentation, this is effectively a brand new car and respected classic car restorer Woodham Mortimer will as part of the sale cover a service on the vehicle.
The Interior
The green leather upholstery suits this car perfectly, the door cards also have the quilted leather and with the matching green carpets, this really is the heart of this British sports car. The SS100 has a manual overdrive with brushed chrome gear-lever, and SS adorned instrument gauges.
The care and attention to detail on this car is stunning and a testament to SS cars authenticity of the original design. A nice touch is the wooden steering wheel that sets off nicely against the interior and feels just right in this British sports car.
The Exterior
The paintwork as you would expect is immaculate, the SS logo adorns the radiator surround and all chrome work is immaculate. The mesh wheels have the period chrome wheel spinners and at the rear you have the “owl eye” style rear lights.
The louvred bonnet reveals polished cam covers and twin carburettors. Once closed back up the bonnet is then strapped in to place with the period brown leather straps. The black fabric hood and tonneau cover are as new and no marks of creases whatsoever.
*The near side running board does have a small crack on it, this will be rectified by Woodham Mortimer prior to the sales completion.
The Mechanics
The engine has only produced 300 miles but will have a service and be shaken down by Woodham Mortimer, a classic car restorer with a worldwide reputation for creating award winning classic vehicles.
The Jaguar XJ6 engine suits the set up of this car perfectly and partnered with this lightweight chassis will be the perfect pairing for this sports car.

The Appeal
The “retromod” scene is bigger than ever now, Suffolk Sports cars were ahead of there time in producing the SS100 and these cars are harking back to the golden era of motoring, what could be better than causing around in one of the most beautiful cars ever produced with modern running gear and that sonorous Jaguar XJ6 engine up front.

Come funzionano le offerte massime
Il processo di offerta massima ti permette di fare offerte senza preoccupazioni.
Inserisci la tua offerta massima e il sistema farà offerte automaticamente per assicurarsi che tu sia il miglior offerente - fino all'ammontare da te stabilito come tetto massimo.
Anti-sniping
Car & Classic contrasta il fenomeno dello “sniping”, ovvero il fenomeno dei rilanci all'ultimo secondo per vincere l'asta.
Se viene fatta un'offerta nei 3 minuti prima della chiusura dell'asta, la scadenza di questa viene automaticamente estesa di 2 minuti per permettere agli altri offerenti di reagire e, se lo desiderano, di rilanciare.
Incrementi di offerta automatica
- Se la sua offerta massima è uguale o inferiore al prezzo di riserva, la sua offerta massima sarà applicata per intero se lei è il miglior offerente.
- Se siete il miglior offerente e fate un'offerta massima superiore a quella di riserva, la riserva verrà automaticamente inserita come prima offerta.
-
- Una volta raggiunta la riserva, Car & Classic si assicurerà che tu sia il miglior offerente utilizzando solo gli incrementi di offerta indicati di seguito.
- Vi terremo in testa fino alla vostra offerta massima O all'incremento più vicino alla vostra offerta massima, a condizione che la vostra offerta massima sia sufficiente a coprire il valore dell'incremento.
| Ammontare dell'offerta | Incremento |
|---|---|
| Da £0 a £9,999 | £100.00 |
| Da £10,000 a £49,999 | £250.00 |
| Da £50,000 a £99,999 | £500.00 |
| £100,000 + | £1,000.00 |
Superamento immediato dell'offerta
Quando piazzi un'offerta massima e questa viene immediatamente superata, questo significa che un altro offerente ha impostato una soglia di offerta massima superiore alla tua.
Puoi fare nuovamente un'offerta o impostare una soglia più alta di offerta massima e il nostro sistema rilancerà fino alla nuova soglia, cercando di portarti a essere il miglior offerente.
Offerte massime di pari ammontare
Quando ci sono due offerte massime di pari ammontare, quella impostata per prima è quella che viene considerata “migliore offerta”.
Pre-autorizzazione
Potremmo trattenere un piccolo importo di pre-autorizzazione sulla tua carta fino alla fine dell'asta, quando quest'ultimo verrà poi stornato. Se vinci, verrà prelevata una caparra che verrà detratta dal pagamento del prezzo di vendita per il veicolo e non comporta costi aggiuntivi per te.
Cosa sono le Offerte pre-asta?
Offerte pre-asta significa che avete la possibilità di fare offerte prima dell'inizio ufficiale dell'asta.
Verrà comunicato se si è il miglior offerente o meno all'inizio dell'asta.
Problema con l'offerta
Le offerte sono contrattualmente vincolanti. Per tutelare l'utente, sono previste alcune regole nel caso in cui si ritenga che sia stato digitato in modo errato. Si prega di controllare e modificare quanto inserito.
