We're another week closer to the CCA March 2016 Classic Car Sale on 19th and can announce the consignment of a very special celebrity pre-owned car.

The 2005 Maserati Quattroporte V, first owned by Sir Elton John, will be going under the hammer on Saturday 19th March at the Warwickshire Exhibition Centre, Leamington Spa.

Ordered new by Sir Elton, the car features a host of extras, including a rear DVD player and screen, games input, two headphones, remote control and six CD auto changer. Also included in the sale is the original Maserati welcome letter, unused personal 24hr concierge members card, and personal gift of a matching leather covered key tray, tool kit, gloves and car cover. The history file also includes national press cuttings from the sale of the car to its second owner in 2010.

With Sir Elton’s name on the V5 certificate, a mere 28,000 miles on the clock, and offered freshly serviced and MoT'd until January 2017, this car offers a great value example of Italian exotica.

Estimate (£): 15,000 - 17,000
