It’s 111 years old and echos the days of Downton Abby.
Imagine Lord Grantham, struggling to maintain the Downton Estate and having to forgo an expensive Rolls-Royce for a 1909 Renault Landaulette; one of which is going to auction tomorrow in London.
It’s an elegant town car; chosen as transport by a descendant of the Duke of Wellington to celebrate her family’s association with the Wellington Museum in London a few years ago.
It’s got the original Renault body, is in show room condition and it could be surprisingly affordable.
H&H Classics expects the car to sell for around $100-thousand CAD.
