Royal memorabilia once owned by Prince William and Kate is up for grabs
An impressive piece of royal memorabilia is up for grabs.
The personal vehicle of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, a black Range Rover, is up for auction.
The pricey item has been labelled as a “rare opportunity to acquire a vehicle with royal roots”.
Prince William and Duchess Kate used the luxury vehicle in 2013 – the same year Prince George was born.
It is now being offered by auction house Bonhams with the expectation for it to sell between $54,000 - $72,000.
The car has been billed as an “ex-royal household” vehicle and even comes with its original number plate.
"Usually, Land Rovers and Range Rovers used by the Royal Household have the vehicle registration numbers changed once out of service, making it difficult to confirm their famous history," the listing on Bonhams' website reads.
Range Rovers and Land Rovers have long been popular choices for the royal family.
"Overall we are told the car is in excellent condition and drives very well, presenting itself as a rare opportunity to acquire a vehicle with Royal roots," the listing says.
The car isn't being sold by William and Kate, as it was purchased in July 2020, from a used car dealership before it came into Bonhams’ possession.
The late Prince Philip’s 2016-plated Range Rover was up for sale back in 2018 with the eye-watering price of $234,340.
The vehicle was fit out with custom features, including covert lighting and police emergency lights, along with grab handles for the Duke of Edinburgh and Queen Elizabeth.
Most notably, the same vehicle was used by Prince Philip to pick up then-US President Barack Obama during a state visit to the United Kingdom back in 2016.
