Which Cars The royals use?Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II use Rolls-Royce and also Jaguar.She received a new Bentley as a gift for her Golden Jubilee in 2002.
 
princess Madeleine of Sweden drives a Lexus
 
I know that Queen Elizabeth II drives her Vauxhall and her Land Rover, both of which she has had for some time. I believe that Prince Bernhard, father of Queen Beatrix, drives a Porsche (as did the late Prince Bertil of Sweden). The Prince of Wales drives a Jaguar, a convertible one if I am correct. That's all I can remember! ;)

Prince johan-friso has a porsche 911...nice cars...Prince Maurits has a Volkwagen Tourag. The other members drive in Volkwagens, Audi´s, Volvo´s and Daewoo´s

HM's Rolls Royce & Bentley vehicles all run on Liquid Petroleum Gas (LPG). They were converted from petrol some years ago.
 
I saw his majesty King Mohamed VI driving his MERCEDES SLK and he has also many other cars like a grey 4*4 LAND ROVER and BMW ....:)

You´re right, why else....
here´s a better pic of the new limo of Queen Beatrix..It´s not so special as i thought it would be. The previous one had a higher roof, but that one was really ugly.
 
im sure about Sophie-Rhys Jones as Countess of Wessex got her first car when she was in her 20's im not sure!

and also Lady Diana Spencer as Diana,Princess of Wales got her first car red and second blue car in her less 20's im not sure!

and also Prince William got his first car when he become 17 year old from his dad the Prince of Wales.

im not sure have another news about younger Royals have got first cars long time ago!

Sara,
Prince Charles drives an Aston Martin & has done for many years. Prince Andrew is a Jaguar man (great taste).

Diana's Cars

Diana drove a lot of Fords, even after marriage. Rather interesting-one had a frog (frog who married Prince from Charles on front). They were:

1. Mom's Renault (learned to drive in it)
2. Honda Civic (gift from mom)
3. Pale Blue VW Turbo (dented by another woman coming out of store.
4. Red Mini Metro; purchased by an English man for
3700.00
5. Siver grey Ford Escort 1.6 Ghia, reg. #WEV 297W, driven until after birth of William and sold for 2,875.
6. Black Ford Escort, reg. #BJN 17X, leased from Ford until Sept. 1983.
7. Ford Escort Cabriolet
8. Black Ford Escort Turbo (10,432 cost)
9. 28,000 Jaguar (leased for few days)
10. Ford Sierra Sapphire Cosworth
11. Green Jaguar XJS

In 1/1992, she leased using her personal funds, a 172,310 metallic red, soft top Mercedes Benz 500 SL.
She was criticized for it; I've heard two conclusions: 1. She returned it; 2. She kept it. I honestly don't know.

Hope this is interesting and informative. Mary Shawn
Sporty Escort Turbo black (1989)
Blue VW Polo (crashed by another woman coming out of store
 
Someone in a previous post said that Queen Elizabeth II drives a Jaguar. To be more exact, it's a Daimler Double Six saloon, which she bought in 1994.
Here is a picture of her car (painted in Edinburgh green).

I think the sultan is just overdoing. hahaha. And the family of Brunei is also overdoing it with jewels. If they are so wealthy, and are able to buy these things, why not give a large amount of money to some charity?
 
Prince Charles signed a deal to buy an Audi, but he was critised for it(he was appealing for ppl to buy british). not sure if he did buy it after all.
 
Do you know which car Queen Rania drives?? I think it's a BMW...
 
The newest car of King Juan Carlos, Bentley Continental GT
