A Range Rover Vogue SE used by Prince William and wife Kate Middleton is currently being auctioned off on Charity Stars.

This particular Range Rover was first used three years ago to transport the couple’s first child, Prince George, home from hospital. At the time of writing, the highest bid sits at £49,970 ($64,976), well short of the £75,000 reserve and the £150,000 the vehicle is expected to sell for. Eight days remain on the auction.

Unsurprisingly, the Range Rover was delivered to the royal couple in the highest-spec possible and apparently, has a number of unnamed custom features, potentially including some form of armor plating.

Power comes courtesy of a 334 hp, 4.4-liter diesel V8 coupled with an eight-speed automatic transmission.

All money raised from the auction will benefit Sun Screen IT, which donates computers to schools, hospitals and orphanages in developing countries as well as Stand Down, a charity offering mental health counselling to armed forces members.
