I'm Sorry...What?! Queen Elizabeth's Bentley Limo Has a Custom Hood Ornament Featuring Her Personal Mascot

On this week’s episode of Lifestyles of the Royal and Famous

We all know Queen Elizabeth II rides in style. Whether she’s driving her own Range Rover (Beep, beep! Out of our way, Kate!) or getting chauffeured in a Rolls-Royce, Her Royal Highness is no stranger to pimped-out rides. 

So it should come as no surprise that the queen has a (totally badass) customized car hood ornament for her Bentley State Limousine, featuring a metallic sculpture of England’s mascot: Saint George slaying a dragon.

Royal photographer Chris Jackson shared a close-up snap of the hood decor and described the specs of the queen’s ride in the caption. The Bentley State Limo was created in 2002 for Her Majesty’s Jubilee and has a 6.75L V-8 engine with a top speed of 130 mph (“Nice wheels, Gran,” Prince Harry said, probably).

So, up for a little race, Gan-Gan? Last to Buckingham is a Scotch egg!
