These are the Royal jewels in Silverstone Auctions’ crown...

If you’re a royalist with a penchant for classic cars, then listen up: at its Classic Motor Show Sale on 12-13 November, Silverstone Auctions will offer a very special collection of cars formerly owned by royals from across the world, featuring Her Majesty the Queen’s personalised Daimler V8...

A large proportion of the collection boasts an association to the British Royal family. This includes a personalised Daimler Supercharged V8 built to the Queen’s exacting specifications, with a special armrest altered to fit her handbag (est. 50,000-60,000), Princess Margaret’s Rolls-Royce Silver Wraith II (£90,000-110,000) and Princess Diana’s Audi Cabriolet (£50,000-60,000). 

The ‘Jewels in the Crown’ collection will be offered by Silverstone Auctions at its Classic Motor Show Sale at the NEC in Birmingham, on 12-13 November 2016. You can find the entire catalogue for the sale listed in the Classic Driver Market.
