Historic Jag could go for £ 9m

Classic car  1950s Jaguar D-Type is listed for sale at auction for £9 million, sold by  Ex- F1 supremo and legendary motorsport mogul Bernie Ecclestone on January 18, 2018, by Sotheby. In the 1920s as a young car dealer, he shifted the 170mph D-type for just £3,500. This model is now one of the world’s most sought-after-classic cars only just 25 were ever made for the UK, expected to beat the current Aussie record by four times. This sportscar one of two produced in bright red colour was shipped directly to Henlys of Manchester dealer from the Coventry production line in December 1955.   The D-Type-Jag known as CKD 518 had a number of British owners including Peter Grant, the Led Zeppelin Manager.
