HM Queen Elizabeth of England is selling her Jaguar. Yes, you can own the ACTUAL car built for and used by Her Majesty

If I was rich and not going to the sandbox, i'd be all over this deal... lol

Anyway, enough ranting, the car for your perusal

Serious Enquires Only, of course.

How did Daimler get involved with Jaguar? They own Mercedes right?

(Valid Question, I don't know)

From the pics, it doesn't look like HM Queen Elizabeth drove it. It looks like she was chauffered in it.

if you look at pic 18 of 18 it appears as if she is getting out of the drivers seat.

Good question--I'd have to look into that. Jag owned Jag--then Ford owned Jag--then sold it. Now, I believe Tata of India owns Jag. Perhaps Daimler is part owner of Tata?

True but look at pic #17. She's clearly sitting in the back. And most LWB (Long Wheel Base) luxury cars aren't really meant to be driven by the owner. (see pic #6) Longer rear doors are meant for easy ingress/egress for the back seat passengers. Picture #12 shows her behind the wheel but it looks like the car isn't moving so I'm guessing it's just for looks.
