The 2009 Jaguar X-Type estate was first owned by the late monarch, confirming the original vehicle handbook is registered as PYN 1F belonging to the Queen.

She was extensively photographed using cars, including Windsor Castle.

Finished in Emerald Fire Green paint with a Burley leather interior, the car also comes with a Jaguar Heritage Trust Certificate of Authenticity.
