Doctor Who actor Matt Smith's first car has sold in a charity auction to benefit the Starlight Children's Foundation.
 Smith nicknamed his car 'The Shed' and said it has seen lots of adventures and mishaps |
The auction was held through eBay, raising £6,300 ($9,576) for terminally ill children. The young actor bought the "pre-Tardis" car - nicknamed "The Shed" - in 2000, before he was accepted into the National Youth Theatre.
Prior to the sale, Smith said of the car: "It has seen lots of adventures, not to mention a few mishaps. I'll be very sad to see it go."
Celebrity-owned cars are always popular when they appear at auction, but few so much as John Lennon's Ferrari 330GT 2+2 Coupe, which sold for £359,900 ($544,028) at Bonhams on July 12, setting a new world record for the model.
