Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II’s personal 2006 Land Rover Range Rover Supercharged has sold for £175,500 (including fees) at Iconic Auctioneers’ Collectors’ Car Sale yesterday, Saturday 23 August. There was great interest in the vehicle, with bidding climbing to £150,000, leaving just two bidders from the Caribbean and Japan who battled to the hammer price of £156,000 with the Caribbean buyer victorious. 

This significant vehicle, exclusively used by Her Majesty between 2006 and 2008, represented a rare opportunity to acquire a historically important, exquisitely presented, and uniquely specified Royal Range Rover.

Originally supplied directly by Land Rover Special Vehicle Operations, this vehicle was meticulously prepared for its prestigious duties. Special modifications commissioned by the Royal Household included upgraded internal wiring for enhanced security and communications, rear grab handles to aid entry and exit, side steps, mud flaps, and a bespoke dog guard to accommodate Her Majesty’s well-known affection for dogs. Although the rear grab handles were removed after its Royal service, evidence of their original placement remains subtly visible. It also retains its silver labrador mascot that only adorned Her Majesty’s personal vehicles – further proof of this remarkable Range Rover’s significance. 

The car’s distinctive exterior, finished in the traditional Royal Household shade of Tonga Green paired beautifully with Oxford Sand leather interior and extended burr walnut trim, exemplifies understated luxury. It is believed to be the only L322 Range Rover ever owned by the Royal Household equipped with the Jaguar-derived 4.2-litre Supercharged V8, delivering powerful yet dignified performance befitting its Royal duties.

Currently, this remarkable Range Rover has covered just under 120,000 miles and remains in exemplary condition throughout. The bodywork has been exceptionally well preserved, free from common corrosion issues found in many Range Rovers of this era. Prepared meticulously for sale, it benefits from a recent service, comprehensive paint correction, and brand-new marque-correct Pirelli Scorpion tyres. Accompanying the vehicle is an extensive history file including the original blue leather wallet, handbooks, and detailed service records.
