1967 Jaguar Mark X 4.2 bought by Madonna goes up for sale
Madonna fans can thank their lucky stars as a 1967 Jaguar Mark X 4.2 bought by Madonna for her son, Rocco goes up for auction carrying no reserve at H&H’s 9th October sale.
There’s no need to justify your love for a car like this, the beast within – a 4.2-litre straight-six – makes it a 120-mph luxury saloon built to appeal to material girls and boys looking for a car that would force Rolls Royce owners to take a bow in admiration of its flowing lines and amazing road manners. Rocco has regularly driven the car and Madonna has also been pictured driving it.
The car’s Opalescent Maroon resprate and original green logbook makes it even easier to open your heart to the idea of owning a four-wheeled British masterpiece, even if the puns here are borderline.
We understand that every vehicle is unique, which is why our Agreed Valuation policies take the true value of your classic car into account.
Lucas Gomersall, motor car specialist at H&H Classics, said: “It’s incredible to be offering a Jaguar for sale with such close connections to Madonna and I’m sure fans and classic car collectors will be hung up on this Mark X.
“Putting aside its famous celebrity connection, this Big Cat is a rare 4.2-litre example that was only in production for two years, and I’m sure Rocco would have enjoyed driving it.
“There were only 5,137 Jaguar Mark X 4.2-litre models ever built. Our auction offers the chance to own an important piece of British motoring history that has also been bought by one of the most famous people on the planet. It’s a car that will always remain in vogue.”
