A CLASSIC 90s motor that starred in hit Netflix series The Crown is set to go on sale for a bargain price.
The 1995 Bentley Brooklands carried the actors portraying then Prince Charles and Princess Diana in the series, as well as young Prince Harry.
Scenes in the Netflix show saw Dominic West and Elizabeth Debicki, who played the royals in the last two seasons, use the vehicle.
With an estimated price tag of £12,000 – £15,000, the car boasts the classic Bentley grille and dual headlights with wraparound parking lights.
The current owner acquired the Peacock Blue car three years ago from a specialist in London.
Previously residing in Scotland, it was chosen as the conveyance of The Prince of Wales in Series 5 and 6 of The Crown.
The car’s registration plate, G8 AOX, also appeared onscreen and forms part of the sale.
The Bentley Brooklands was introduced in 1992 to replace the Mulsanne and Bentley Eight.
The real King Charles has used the car brand many times over the years, including previously owning a 1994 Bentley Turbo RL and using a state Bentley on a state visit to Germany in 2023.
The vehicle will be auctioned by Classic Car Auctions on 1 June at their Tatton Park Sale in Knutsford, Cheshire.
The controversial Netflix drama delved deep into the monarch’s crumbling marriage to Princess Diana, played by Elizabeth Debicki, 32, and his affair with the woman who was then Camilla Parker Bowles.
West said that when he tried to quit as an ambassador for the Prince’s Trust, the King refused to accept.
The actor said: “It was: ‘You do what you like, you’re an actor. It’s nothing to do with us.’ I think that’s probably how he (the King) regards it.”
He also revealed in the Radio Times that Queen Consort Camilla was equally unphased by him being in the TV drama.
He told how, at a party last year, shortly after it was exclusively revealed by The Sun he had landed the part as Charles, she jokingly referred to him as “Your Majesty”.
Oscar winner Dame Judi Dench, 87, wanted a factual disclaimer added to each episode. She said fictionalised accounts of royal life were “cruelly unjust”.
