The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge leave Buckingham Palace in an Aston Martin

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge leave Buckingham Palace for Clarence House.

The Duke is driving an Aston Martin DB6. The convertible Aston Martin Volante DB6 MKII in Seychelles blue is owned by his father HRH The Prince of Wales. The Prince has owned the car since 1969.

In June 2008, at the specific request of The Prince of Wales, who is keen that his cars should be run on sustainable fuel, the Aston Martin was converted to run on E85 bioethanol, made from English wine wastage.
