Liam Gallagher’s limited edition Bristol 603 set to sell for huge sum at auction

OASIS fans can bag themselves some classic memorabilia before this year’s tour — as one of Liam Gallagher’s old cars goes up for sale.

The rocker bought the Bristol 603 for £20,000 in 1996 when he was dating actress Patsy Kensit.

The silver car — one of only 65 of its kind made — is now up for sale for £42,500.

Liam, 52, could not drive so he employed a chauffeur for him and his wife-to-be.

Patsy, 56, who was a child actor and starred in 1974 film The Great Gatsby, married Liam in 1997. They had one son, ­Lennon, and divorced in 2000.

The Bristol 603, complete with leather upholstery and a powerful 5.9L V8 engine, and built in 1981, is in immaculate condition.

Seller SLJ Hackett, in Warminster, Wilts, said: “The car will sit at 100mph with the engine only turning over at 3,300rpm so it is a supremely relaxed cruiser on long journeys at legal speeds!”

Experts say the cars are an alternative to Bentleys and Virgin tycoon Sir Richard Branson and U2’s Bono have owned one.

Classic car salesman Richard Hackett, 78, said: “This is a great car of its kind and it will definitely sell.

“But the connection with Liam Gallagher gives it that added attraction.

“Personally, I’m more of a Buddy Holly and Little Richard fan, stuff from the 1950s.

“That’s my era rather than the 1990s but I know that Oasis are very popular, especially this year.

“This car would be a great buy for someone who is a fan of both Oasis and classic cars.”

Liam owned the car in the 1990s, when Oasis were one of the biggest bands in the world following a string of top-selling albums and singles.

After this year’s comeback tour there will be no motor the frontman cannot afford, as he and Noel are expected to pocket £50million each from 41 sell-out shows around the world.

The Gallagher brothers’ tour kicks off on July 4 at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff.
