Equipment
RHD. 4235/167hp, floor shift automatic, whitewalls, tinted glass, Nokia car phone, rear jump seats, rear window curtains, dual air conditioning.
Condition
Supposedly used to ferry Queen Elizabeth II on her tour of New Zealand in 2002. Also reportedly got a $205K restoration in 2002. Good but not exceptional pint with some chips on door edges. A few scratches in the side windows. Good interior with only light wear on the driver’s seat and faded gauges. The engine bay is very clean, fully restored, and lightly used. A neat English limousine with some royal history. If $205K was really spent on a restoration, it should be ready for any concours lawn, but it isn’t.
Market commentary
This car was probably never going to recoup a $200K restoration, but they probably could have expected more than the reported high bid given the royal history.
