Queen Elizabeth II's Range Rover Supercharged Vogue SE sold at auction for £175,500.
A 20-year-old Range Rover with almost 120,000 miles on the odometer, once owned by the late Queen Elizabeth II, has sold at auction for more than ten times its market value.
Iconic Auctioneers sold the 2006 Supercharged V8 Range Rover on Saturday, a vehicle that graced the hallowed royal garage for two years.
Despite its relatively high mileage, the automotive auction specialist had still set a guide price for its roof between £50,000 and £70,000, above the market average. However, a fierce bidding war between two collectors, one from the Caribbean and the other from Japan, drove the price into the six-figure range, so high that it is now the world record sale for a Range Rover from the L322 series.
Remarking on the stellar sale, the auction house said it was a "great honor and an absolute privilege to be able to offer this car, with such a fascinating history and provenance."
The 2006 Land Rover Range Rover 4.2 Supercharged Vogue SE, delivered new to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II that year, sold for £175,500, including auction premium, and featured a special factory-original trim with the following accessories:
- An exclusive hood ornament in the shape of a royal guard dog—a silver Labrador with a pheasant in its mouth, a symbol reserved only for the Queen's vehicles.
- Custom electrical and electronic systems, overhauled for safety and communication, preventing intrusion or malfunction.
- Side steps, mudguards, and interior grab handles to facilitate Queen Elizabeth II's access to the vehicle.
- Cargo space specially adapted to transport her corgis, her inseparable companions.
A source within the auction house told the Daily Mail: "There was huge interest in this Range Rover, with bids steadily rising to £150,000, leaving only two bidders, one from the Caribbean and one from Japan, who went for £156,000, winning the auction and setting a new world auction record."
The enormous winning bid not only represents a new world record, but also a significant increase over the price typically paid for a 20-year-old Range Rover.
MARKET PROJECTIONS
The prices of the Range Rover L322 and Range Rover Sport L320 represent a quintessentially English, evergreen design, and demand for these vehicles from fans and collectors of the brand will drive their prices higher.
