Classic Jaguar MKII Convertible belonging to Noel Gallagher is listed for purchase
Noel Gallagher's Custom 1967 Jaguar MKII Convertible Up for Sale
A unique piece of British cultural history, the 1967 Jaguar MKII Convertible owned by Noel Gallagher, is now available for purchase. This iconic car, commissioned for Gallagher in the 1990s, has undergone a remarkable transformation, turning a standard MKII into a bespoke luxury convertible.
Originally a four-door MKII saloon, the car was transformed by Vicarage specialists into a two-door convertible. The rear doors were removed, and the front doors were extended, while an electric hood and window system were added to create a fully-functioning convertible[1][2]. Modern features such as power steering, inertia-reel seatbelts, an automatic gearbox, and an electric cooling fan were also added to enhance comfort and usability[1].
Despite commissioning this extensive conversion, Gallagher never drove the car himself. It mostly remained in storage, occasionally driven by his wife and featuring in a music video for Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds, with actor Matt Smith driving[2]. The car gained public attention again when Jaguar Land Rover Classic acquired it and showcased it at Queen Elizabeth II’s Platinum Jubilee celebrations in 2022[2].
The car is currently for sale via Twyford Moors Classic Cars, with Harry Rochez expressing excitement about offering the car. Rochez considers the car a cultural icon due to its association with Noel Gallagher and Britpop[3]. The car was last sold by Jaguar Land Rover Classic in 2023 for £144,950[4].
In its current condition, the car is described as 'stunning' by the seller. The price for this one-of-a-kind, highly collectible, culturally significant classic is available on application[3][5].
This car represents a rare blend of 1960s Jaguar style with late-20th-century custom luxury, commissioned by a prominent music icon. It's a must-have for any classic car enthusiast or music history buff.
