Seventy-five years ago, this beauty glided on the roads of Rajkot, stopping people in their tracks. Soon, she will make heads turn
across the world—a custom-built Rolls-Royce that belonged to the maharaja of Rajkot is set to become the world’s most expensive car when it goes under the hammer in Germany.
Known as the Star of India, it is expected to fetch £8.5 million at the auction being conducted by the Rolls-Royce Museum at Muhlheim. Old-timers in Rajkot remember the car moving with its ‘Rajkot State No. 26’ registration number and the emblem of Rajkot state ‘prajadharmi raja’.
