Hitler’s Parade Car Bought by Ukraine’s Zelensky
Adolf Hitler is undoubtedly one of the most controversial and infamous figures in history. He was a man with many obsessions, and one of his most enduring was a love of automobiles. These cars were an important part of his image and public persona. After 1939, Hitler’s name soon became associated with one model – the Mercedes 770. And the biggest and most luxurious of 770s was the Mercedes-Benz 770K Grosser Offener Tourenwagen, often referred to as the “Super Mercedes.” In July of 1940, it carried Hitler on his victory parade held in Berlin following the defeat of France. The Nazi dictator’s Mercedes-Benz, which the U.S. Army seized after the war, is one of just five remaining in existence.
This exact car went up for auction in 2018 in Scottsdale, Arizona but failed to sell after a $7 million bid didn’t meet the minimum price. It was later spotted in a super-rich Seattle suburb that is home to Jeff Bezos and Bill Gates, the Seattle Times reported.
The Worldwide Auctioneers announced that they had finally found a private buyer. Rod Egan, the owner of the Worldwide Auctioneers also said the buyer signed an NDA when purchasing the car: “The end destination is not in this country,” he said. “It is far, far away.”
The new owner of the Hitler’s car remained a mystery until yesterday, when Volodymyr Zelensky was spotted getting out of this car in Kyiv Ukraine.
Telegram channel Реальна Війна posted a picture of Zelensky’s car outside the Bankova 11 building.
It happened just a couple of days after he returned from his successful diplomatic trip to US. The United States announced a new $8 billion aid package for Ukraine during Zelensky’s visit to Washington.
It remains unclear, who was the mysterious seller and how much did Mr. Zelensky pay for the Nazi dictator’s car, although the estimated sale price is believed to be around $15 million.
SHOCKING: Hitler’s parade car was bought by Zelensky for $15M and parked right outside his office. Biden’s $8B in taxpayer money sure is being put to “good” use!
