Attention ‘Game Of Thrones’ Fans: Tywin Lannister Is Auctioning Off His Sweet Mustang

Classic Car Auctions of the United Kingdom, according to its website, is “a specialist auction house for the sale of ‘everyman’ classic cars” that attempts to “make buying and selling a classic car as easy and as straight-forward as possible.” This all seems very above board and reasonable. Let’s take a peek at what they’re offering. Oh hey, a 1967 Mustang convertible. That looks nice. Lemme just check the description to get the whole story.

CCA are privileged to be able to offer this 1967 Ford Mustang Convertible, belonging to the well known actor Charles Dance.

TYWIN LANNISTER. CHARLES DANCE IS TYWIN LANNISTER. FROM GAME OF THRONES. THIS IS TYWIN LANNISTER’S MUSTANG.

The Mustang has been owned by Charles and his wife since 2002 and was a daily driver right up until 2013, when it was treated to a full restoration by Phil King of Classic American Restoration Services. Prior to this, the vehicle was registered on the Vcar register due to an incident in 2006. The restoration work was completed just recently, and comprised of all new floor pans, new rear wings, fully rebuilt 289 V8 engine and a complete new braking system to name just a few.

Best part: The fact that this was “a daily driver” up until 2013 means that, conceivably, if he drove his car to the set one day and had to quickly run home or to his hotel for something so important that he didn’t have time to change out of his wardrobe for the show, people driving along a highway in Europe could have glanced in their rearview mirror and seen Tywin Lannister — in full Game of Thrones armor — bearing down on them in a bright red 1967 Mustang convertible. This is an incredibly fun visual that you should probably spend the next 10-15 minutes thinking about. What that person’s face must have looked like, what your face would have looked like, how you would have even attempted to explain it to your friends, etc. Explore all the options.

And in case you were wondering if this is some sort of hoax, fear not. We have confirmation, via the CCA website.

Dear God, he even looks menacing here, in a civilian photo. Like, he looks like this could be a trap. Like maybe you’ll buy the car and go to turn the key and all of a sudden “Rains of Castamere” will start playing out of the speakers. You know what? Don’t buy this car. Not if you value your family’s lives.
