From Hugh Hefner s BMW to Clark Gable s Jaguar.
Nothing adds value to a car like having a famous owner. It can take a decent car and add some value. It can take a great car, and make it even more valuable or make a legendary car priceless. It depends on the match between car and owner, and 2020 was a particularly great year for celebrity cars hitting the auction block.
This year cars from modern music and movie stars like Travis Barker and Will Smith appeared alongside vehicles owned by The King of Rock and Roll and the Queen of Jazz. Also sold were cars owned by the pioneer of soft pornography and The Great One. It was a mixed and interesting 12 months for celebrity car sales.
The model features 15-inch steel wheels with mastercraft whitewall tyres installed for authenticity.
The vehicle has travelled just 60,500 miles during its lifetime with just 2,000 added by the most recent owner.
The seller revealed an oil change and a coolant flush have been performed on the model within the last 100 miles to keep it maintained.
Inside, the car remains in a good condition finished with black leather and grey carpets.
