The owner has never driven the Princess, which means the last person at the wheel was Charles Aznavour himself. It's still on the original registration plates, and the interior still features all the Vanden Plas luxuries, like the famous rear picnic tables. The Princess was based on the Issigonis-designed BMC 1100/1300, which were badged as Austin, Morris, Riley and Wolseley as well as Vanden Plas. It's going to be offered at the Bonhams Grandes Marques du Grand Palais Sale in Paris on 7 February, during the Rétromobile show.
