A luxury classic car which was owned until recently by Madonna is going up for auction.

The Queen of Pop purchased the rare 1967 Jaguar Mark X 4.2 three years ago for her son Rocco and sold it a year later, according to auctioneers.

The car is being sold at Mercedes-Benz World in Weybridge, Surrey, on Saturday with an estimated value of between £16,000-£22,000.

Matthew Priddy, from Historics Auctioneers, said Madonna "used the car for photo shoots" and "was seen in it in and around London".

Mr Priddy said: "This car is interesting because of who owned it.

"It could sell for significantly more than the estimate."

The Jaguar is a "rare 4.2 example that was only in production for two years", according to the auctioneers.

Madonna staged a photoshoot in the car with images posted on her Instagram account.
