The Vanden Plas 4 Litre R is in all respects special. The automobile was designed by Pininfarina and built by Austin and is the only non-Rolls-Royce car with a 4 litre Rolls-Royce engine of 3909 cc. The Princess is very luxuriously equipped with leather, Burr-Walnut veneer and seats you don't have at home. Started with a 3 litre engine the Vanden Plas 4 litre R was built from 1964 until 1968 with Rolls-Royce engine. There are 6555 copies manufactured.

The Princess here offered for sale dates back to 1966 and is in outstanding original condition. The car is very complete up to and including the original Radiomobile. This Vanden Plas 4 Litre R makes a wonderful basis for a good restoration. See the detailed photos.

The vehicle can be viewed and picked up in Boskoop, the Netherlands.

Unique Objects

Occasionally, two different bidders may show up in the bidding history with the same bid amount. This occurs when one user's bid is exactly the same as an automatic (maximum) bid placed by another user earlier. Since the auto-bid was placed first, this takes preference. The bidding history will show both bids, with the auto-bid ranked as the higher of the two.


Double bid

It may appear that the same bid has been placed by two different bidders. This can occur if someone places a bid in another currency which is then rounded to the same amount as the previous bid in %{local_currency}.

This can occur for the following reasons:
<p>1. If an opening bid does not meet a lot’s reserve price (hidden minimum), buyers may try outbidding their earlier bid in order to find that lot’s RP.</p>
<p>2. If an auto-bid (user-set maximum bid) is outbid, the bidding log will show the first and final steps of that user's auto-bid in a row. The new highest bid will be shown at the top.</p>

Why is this bidder outbidding him- or herself?
