A convertible Aston Martin that once belonged to Prince Charles has emerged for sale at auction for a whopping £275,000.
The Virage Volante dates back to 1994 and was leased to the Prince of Wales by Aston Martin until 2008 when he returned the motor.
It was given an upgraded 6.3 litre engine at Charles' request and was also fitted with a police radio, which has since been removed.
The motor also has a second rear-view mirror and a leather-trimmed container in the centre armrest for the polo ponies' sugar cubes.
