Sir Elton John
‹ Return to Sir Elton John
This classic 1965 Jaguar E-Type owned by Sir Elton John is expected to fetch £70,000 at auction. See SWNS story SWELTON; Music legend and sports car aficionado Sir Elton, 64, bought the stunning convertible sports car in 1987 – the year he released Candle in the Wind. And the flamboyant star would have felt like a Rocket Man as he hurtled down the A3 in the 150mph convertible. This was thanks to the car’s 4.2-litre V8 engine which developed around 265bhp, making it one of the world’s fastest cars when it went on sale in the 1960s.
