It was fitted with a handrail and glass screen so Her Majesty, who died in 2022, could stand up in the back.

It also had a traffic light red, amber, green system to let her signal to the driver when she wanted to move on, slow or stop.

Rear doors let her get on and off.

In a 2012 auction, it was sold, with under 2,000 miles on the clock, to the Anglo-German businessman Dean Kronsbein for £28,000.

He died in a yacht accident in 2022 and his classic car collection is for sale at auctioneer RM Sotheby’s in London.

The auction house said: “This is an extremely unique opportunity.”

“It has now been fully restored, meaning it presents immaculately and is now ready to join its next home.”

The sale takes place on November 1.
