The best part? You don’t even have to be an heir to the throne to get in the auction, but careful, what you do need is money! Bids are currently revving up to $59,000, with the auction hammer expected to go as far as $75,000. A fair price for a royal relic?
Surprisingly, The Daimler has just clocked 16,200 miles, mostly on chill plans like driving to church or waving around the late Queen’s routines and activities. Also, it comes with a couple of quirks: flashing blue strobe lights, and a secret compartment replacing the usual ashtray with a control panel. The best? two controls that give major James Bond vibes.
The royal vehicle up to auction with two beauty marks (a missing red strip and a couple of dents) has been stored as part of a private collection for the past 11 years. Now, it’s ready to roll to the luckiest (and wealthiest) auctioneer in the bid.
