It looks like it may have already surpassed banger money, I suspect the fact that the Queen owned it may have some effect on the price!
It would be quite a coup for a 'racer though! If it was raced, by a racer bought it legitimately , on an even playing field with other enthusiasts he'd still be no more to blame than whoever left it to rot in the first place (hang on, is that treason - maybe it was the Queen's fault!).
I suspect that the reason the bidding is private on this one is because all the bidders are members of the royal family trying to win it back. Wills probably wants it so he can apply for 'Pimp My Ride'! ;D

The queen is a disgrace for letting it get into that state.

i think HRH planned to slam it over some wide J style rims but other projects have got in the way and she's had to pass it on.

Could be more solid than it looks.... I wonder if it was the Queen herself who crashed it?

The estate is so much more elegant than the saloon, shame it's in this condition.  What are the Radford ones like? |

The Radford design isn't as nice as the one-off VDP. Shame.  Also, VDP 3-litre shooting brake action  |

Wow that is a sorry sight The "new" panels don't look much better either. A handsome old beast though, that's for sure. |

linkwho ever takes that on is brave!b I don't know, when you look at the pictures closely, it appears that most of the rust is surface rust. Look down the near side of the car and it looks pretty solid. I suspect that if the owner had bothered to pull it out of the garage and actually wash it off it wouldn't look nearly as bad. |

Cool, I'd never even heard of an estate version of those before. Like Sav says the 'new' panels don't look too promising, though they could probably be used. I'm being an anorak and trying to recognise the rear lights off it, look like Landcrab or Maxi but probably a bit too early for Maxi?
