Crime scene.


Sir Jimmy Saville's 'live-in' Range Rover is going to auction in February, and is expected to fetch over five times what he paid for it originally.

The Carawagon conversion enabled Sir Jimmy to live in his Range Rover while travelling between charity fundraising trips.

Carawagon conversions were usually on Land Rover 109s, and were most popular in the '70s and early '80s, made by a company called Searle of Sunbury-on-Thames (later Carawagon International). They were approved by Land Rover, and turned the 109 into an all-conquering caravan; a fleet was ordered by the Army for use in the heat of battle.

A handful of Range Rovers were also converted, though nowhere near as many of these were made as 109s.

Ordered new in 1978, Sir Jimmy's Range Rover features a wash basin between the front seats and rear curtains for privacy.
