Range Rover Owned By A Well-Known British Prince Is Up For Sale

The British royal family has been associated with Range Rover for a long time. The parent brand of Range Rover, Land Rover, provided the first vehicle to Queen Elizabeth back in the 1950s and the royal family has been a reliable customer since then.

An online auction site CharityStars is putting up the Range Rover used by none other than Prince William and Kate Middleton, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge for sale.

This is what the press release had to say:

The vehicle was originally supplied to The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge via Land Rover's VIP Department, fitted with many additional features, and used by the Royal Household. The sought after car is the one that the eyes of the world watched as William and Catherine carried their firstborn son and heir to the throne, His Royal Highness Prince George Alexander Louis of Cambridge home from the hospital for the first time.

Range Rovers are famously rugged, so serving as a family hauler probably hasn't much degraded the capabilities of Wills and Kate's 334-horsepower diesel model, which only has 31,000 miles on it. Of course, Range Rovers are also notoriously prone to mechanical glitches, so caveat emptor.

The vehicle costs around $96,000 (approx. Rs. 64 lakh) new.
