A 2005 Maserati Quattroporte V, first owned by Sir Elton John, will be going under the hammer at Classic Car Auctions’ March Sale.

It is expected to fetch up to £17,000 when it goes to auction on Saturday, 19 March, at the Warwickshire Exhibition Centre in Leamington Spa.

Ordered new by Sir Elton, the car features a host of extras, including a rear DVD player and screen, games input, two headphones, remote control and six-CD auto changer.
