British Queen's Car: Indian Rishi Sunak continues as British Prime Minister. An Indian business tycoon has recently acquired a unique piece of British royal history. Yohan Punawala, Managing Director of Punawala Group, bought the Rani's late Queen Elizabeth-2 used Range Rover. The car still bears the same registration number used by the late Queen.
– A car with a history..
The car owned by Yohan has a remarkable history. It is noteworthy that its registration number remains the same. Usually the vehicle number changes after leaving the royal family. But, the car number of Elizabeth-2 has not changed. Punawala also expressed happiness over this. The Economics Times quoted Punawala as saying, 'I am delighted to have acquired this wonderful automotive history.' The special thing about this car is that it still carries the same registration number OU 16XVH used by the late Queen. This turned out to be an added bonus for Punawala.
– Range Rover car..
2016 Range Rover SDV8 Autobiography LWB Edition Painted Lower Blue with Ivory Upholstery has approximately 18k miles. The car has a reserve price of £224,850 (just over Rs 2.25 crore) on Bramley Auctioneers' website. But Punawala bought this car privately without this auction process.
– Car features..
This Range Rover car was specially designed for the use of Queen Elizabeth-2. It includes special changes including secret lighting, police emergency lighting. An important change for the Rani is the grab handles at the rear for easy entry and exit. Punawala said that he intends to keep the changes made to the car.
