Richard Gere Sells His “Jaguar XK8” To Help Ukraine

Online auction platform "Bid a Trailer" will donate money from the sale of cars to the organization "World Central Kitchen" and "Open Arms Ukraine"

On May 12, Richard Gere put his Jaguar, Anthracite Pearl colored, up for sale. The current bid is $29.000, and the auction ends on May 18th.

Information about the sale appeared on the Bid a Trailer online platform, which added the technical characteristics of the car and, as the Carfax report confirms, did not get into an accident. The fact that it was bought new by Richard Gere in 1999 adds value to the car, and the car belonged only to the actor. The photo from the cover of this article was taken from the BAT.

“This XK8 has 30k miles and is offered at no reserve on dealer consignment with manufacturer’s literature, a clean Carfax report, and a clean New York title in the owner’s name. The full sale amount, including the BaT buyer's fee, will be split evenly between the World Central Kitchen and Open Arms Ukraine, both of which are 501(c)(3) non-profit organizations that provide resources to those affected by the war in Ukraine,” Bid a Trailer.

We remind you that World Central Kitchen is now located in Poland on the border with Ukraine and accepts Ukrainian refugees. Every day, thousands of people who fled the war with their families can receive free heat and food at the Kitchen.
