Now is your chance to drive like a real king or queen. King Charles III purchased, owns, and drives an all-electric Jaguar I-Pace from the year 2018, which he purchased. It will be auctioned off at Historics on March 2. It wouldn’t change the fact that the British royal family owned the I-Pace if they sold it in 2021. With its unique color scheme, this 2018 I-Pace jumps out even if it doesn’t belong to a royal family. In 2018, when King Charles (then Prince Charles) bought the car, it was painted Eiger Grey. He asked that his favorite color, Loire Blue, be put on it. That’s what happened. It was painted the right amount of blue when Jaguar brought it back, making it the only Loire Blue Jaguar I-Pace ever made. But King Charles wasn’t the only member of the royal family who drove an I-Pace. The group Historics thinks that Meghan Markle and Queen Elizabeth II were among the royals who drove the I-Pace. “Silent but deadly,” the former Prince joked when asked about the new car when he was first seen driving the I-Pace. Even though it has royal roots, the Jaguar I-Pace is a very interesting car. Ian Callum’s one-of-a-kind electric car came out in 2018 and got great reviews. It even got the 2019 World Car of the Year award for Design of the Year, Green Car of the Year, and World Car of the Year. It’s not as big of a deal now that there are more advanced, high-tech, long-range electric cars on the market. Some people don’t like the I-Pace’s looks, but I’ve always liked it. It’s fast and fun to drive. The worth of Jaguar I-Paces has dropped a lot in the past three years. You can get low-mileage cars for less than $30,000, which is a big discount from the starting price of $73,275. King Charles’ old I-Pace isn’t expected to sell for $69,320 to $88,226 (£55,000 to £70,000), even though it only has 35,000 kilometers on it and has a royal history. Would you pay almost as much for a brand-new I-Pace as you would for a used one that has been painted a cool color and was once owned by the British royal family? Or can you find one for a lot less money that doesn’t have any royalties?
