Princess Diana's Audi convertible heads to auction

Recently, a Bentley formerly owned by the Queen failed to sell at auction – possibly due in part to its massive estimate of £180,000. But customers on a tighter budget who still fancy a slice of royal automobilia should head to Brooklands this weekend, where an Audi 80 Cabriolet formerly driven by Princess Diana is going up for sale.

The car will be auctioned by Historics at Brooklands, an auction house specialising in classic and rare cars. It carries an estimate of £14,000-£18,000 – well above the average asking price for an Audi Cabriolet of this vintage.
