Lewis Hamilton might have more F1 winners' trophies on his mantelpiece than anyone else on the planet, but his father has amassed his own impressive collection, but of British classic cars.Anthony Hamilton, 66, will offer 27 models from his private garage at an auction next month, and most of the vehicles are a showcase of incredible British car manufacturing.Of the catalogue of motors, 23 are UK-made, with three Mercedes cars and one eighties performance BMW saloon going under the hammer.Headlining the haul is a Jaguar XJ220 showing just 3,800 miles and accompanied by a fully documented service history, which is set to sell for a staggering half a million pounds.It will be offered to the highest bidder alongside an exciting recreation of Jaguar's ultra-rare XKSS, worth £375,000.In total, the collection has been valued at just over £3million and includes five classic Minis, four Triumphs, three E-type Jaguars and two Aston Martins. Anthony Hamilton, 66, is selling 27 cars from his private collection. The haul is estimated to be worth over £3million Anthony is the father of seven-time F1 champion Lewis who steered his son’s motorsport career from a very early age and well into his career in motor racing's premier classsHamilton Senior's arsenal of classic Jaguars includes two C-type 'continuation' cars.The first is a replica of the legendary XKC001 that won the prestigious Le Mans 24 Hours race in 1951, while the second mimics XKC003 - the Stirling Moss and Norman Dewis 1952 Mille Miglia entrant; the car that famously first showcased the stopping power of disc brakes to the world. Both are expected to sell for £225,000 each.The 'big cat' line-up is completed by three stunning E-Types, including two close-to-production 1967 Series 1 roadsters with the 4.2-litre engine, which are valued at £100,000 apiece.The third is a Series 3 V12 finished in Heather - a rare colour when new and now a highly sought-after choice - that should fetch £60,000 when bidding concludes. Headlining the collection is this 1993 Jaguar XJ220. It has just 3,800 miles on the clock and a pre-sale guide price of up to £550k Hamilton, 66, is also parting with his special recreation of Jaguar's ultra-rare XKS, worth £375,000. His selection of Jaguars includes three stunning E-types, including this 1967 Series 1 roadster with the 4.2-litre engine, which is valued at £100,000Mercedes-Benz is also well represented in the collection, somewhat unsurprisingly given Lewis Hamilton's 12-year stint driving for the manufacturer up until his switch to Ferrari in 2025.Anthony's three pointed star car collection is headlined by a 1960 Mercedes-Benz 190 SL, tastefully finished in white over navy, with a guide price of up to £120,000.The Mercedes lots also include a high-performance 2013 C63 AMG Edition 507, expected to sell for £38,000, with Anthony Hamilton's ownership coinciding with his son's remarkably successful period with the Mercedes-AMG Petronas Formula One Team.He will also part company with his 1989 300SL, which once belonged to heavyweight boxer Billy Walker. The hugely collectable car has an estimated price of £50,000.Aston Martin is represented by three particularly interesting models from the marque: a 1982 Lagonda (£100,000), now widely regarded as one of the coolest retro designs from the brand; a venerable 1970s Series 3 V8 (£100,000); and a very rare 1990s V8 Coupe (£65,000), all presented in concours condition.The father of the seven-time Formula One champion also has a penchant for collectable Triumphs, with his garage led by a stunning Italia.Only 330 of these cars were produced between 1959 and 1962. When it launched, it was described as 'Italian bodywork at its best, British tradition in sports car engineering at its finest'.Iconic Auctioneers estimates it will sell for £100,000.It is joined by a highly significant TR5 predicted to attract bids of up to £90,000. This is understood to be the only remaining prototype and a true living archive of Triumph's TR development, returned with great care to its experimental specification.The Triumph line-up also includes two Spitfires with pre-sale guide prices of £22,000 and £24,000. This 1982 Aston Martin Lagonda - with a guide price of £100,000 - is widely regarded as one of the coolest retro designs from the brand Hamilton Senior has a penchant for collectable Triumphs, including this Italia, described at launch as 'Italian bodywork at its best, British tradition in sports car engineering at its finest' The mass of British classics includes a number of Minis. This David Brown Remastered example is expected to reach £80,000 A one-of-100 David Brown Speedback GT is also part of the for-sale collection and is the third highest value car, said to be worth £240,000The collection also includes every high-value 1960s variants of the Mini Cooper S: a 970 S (£38,000); 1071 S (£38,000) and 1275 S (£35,000).There too is a pair of very unique David Brown Mini Remastered creations going to the block from the Hamilton garage.These modernised classics are highly desirable, extremely premium and exceptionally exclusive. As such, the auction house expects each to receive bids in the region of £80,000.There's also a 2016 David Brown Speedback GT - a rare, sixties-inspired grand tourer that uses a Jaguar XKR platform - of which just 100 were produced for global markets from 2014 onwards, including this one finished in British Racing Green.Reflecting its unicorn status, the car is expected to sell for £240,000. However, will be at some loss, with the Speedback costing more than £600,000 new.Lionel Abbott, car specialist at Iconic Auctioneers, who will oversee the sale of the cars, said: 'The Anthony Hamilton Collection is a superbly curated group of cars with real depth, quality and personality.'From the Jaguar XJ220 and XKSS recreation to the Triumph prototypes, Aston Martins and Mini Cooper S models, it reflects a clear passion for British motoring at its most characterful.'The sale takes place on Saturday 25th July at the British Racing Drivers Club's (BRDC) Classic weekend hosted at Silverstone.'To present these cars at Silverstone, alongside the Hamilton Straight, feels entirely fitting,' Abbott added.
