This 1961 Jaguar Mk2 3.4 belongs to a multi-millionaire – and it could be yours.

A multi-millionaire philanthropist is planning to thin out his collection by disposing of 12 of his vehicles – mainly British – at auction. Serial classic car collector Graham Dacre will be offering the cars through Anglia Car Auctions’ 23 January sale in King’s Lynn.

The selection includes four Jaguars, three MGs and a Fairway LT1 taxi. One of the MGs – a GT LE – has just 604 miles and two owners to its name.

ACA proprietor Lynne George said: ‘I think he’s running out of space! He has Mercedes-Benz Gullwings, Bugattis and all sorts – it’s probably one of the best private collections in the country.’ Dacre is believed to have more than 100 European classics in his collection, Individual estimates for the auction cars haven’t been released yet, but prices will range from around £4000 for a Triumph Spitfire up to £10,000 for an MGC GT.

Other cars at ACA’s sale include a 1977 Austin-Morris Marina SunTor Camper and a 1991 BMW E36 3-series that won its class on the 1993 Tasmanian Targa Rally.
