Freddie Mercury`s Rolls-Royce going under the hammer

London: A Rolls-Royce owned by Freddie Mercury is set to be auctioned later this month.

The 1974 Silver Shadow was bought by the Queen singer in 1979. He drove it until his death in 1991 at the age of 45 and since then it has been taken care of by his sister. Inside the car the buyer will find a box of tissues which Freddie’s family found too painful to remove after his death, the Daily Star reported. The car will be sold on January 12 by Coys in Birmingham and could fetch around 11,000 pounds. ANI
