Pink Panther car to be auctioned at at Blenheim Palace
Published July 10th, 2007
A car made famous by the cartoon series The Pink Panther is expected to fetch up to £100,000 at auction.
The sleek pink car appeared in the titles and credits of the television series featuring the legendary pink cat and Inspector Clouseau.
The 23ft (7m) car is a lengthened 1969 Oldsmobile Toronado, complete with pink plush interior.
It will be auctioned at Blenheim Palace, Oxfordshire, on Saturday and is expected to fetch £75,000 to £90,000.
But Christian Penwill, from auctioneers Coys, said the famous vehicle may fetch a lot more.
“At the auction of the Batmobile in February, the price rocketed. It sold for £119,000 in the end,” he said.
