Jaguar Mark VII (Queen Mother) in Dark Red (1:43 scale)
- Modelled on 464 HYV, Classic Number 727554 BW, owned by Her Majesty the Queen Mother, who took delivery of the car in 1955. She kept it for her private motoring into the early 1970s & the colour was a special metallic finish of the Royal colour Claret. The car is an example of the MK VIIM model which Jaguar produced from 1954. It was later updated for Her Majesty, with features from the MK VII/IX model, including the one-piece windscreen. Classed as the fastest saloon car in the world at the time, it was capable of over 100 mph. HM the Queen Mother returned the car to Jaguar in 1973.
