A Hummer which was the last ever motor purchased by Tupac Shakur is going under the hammer with a £340,000 starting price.
This 1996 H1 Four-Door Hard Top Pickup, fondly named Eliminator by the rapper aka 2Pac – is a piece of hip hop history.
The impressive custom vehicle was listed in Tupac’s estate inventory following his murder in 1996.

The Hummer was acquired by Tupac in August 1996, just three weeks before the West Coast artist’s untimely death.
The motor is kitted out with a 396ci OHV turbo diesel V8 engine, with a factory top speed of 83 mph, as reported by Need To Know.
The ride also possesses a whopping 205bhp.
The 4×4 boasts modifications made by the iconic rapper himself, too.
An external PA system with sirens, heavily upgraded Clarion stereo system, light kit with 38 inch Dick Cepek off-road lights and a 360 degree spotlight were added by the icon.
The All Eyez On Me rapper, who was killed in a drive-by shooting at 25 years of age, also added front-end grill, hood guard and diamond plate bumpers containing a 12,000lb winch.
The interior is finished in full beige leather with burl walnut trim – chosen specifically by Tupac.
Auction viewings open on Thursday (22 Jan) at The Westin Kierland Resort & Spa, Scottsdale, Arizona.
A spokesperson for Bonhams Cars said: “With his meteoric rise, Tupac acquired some fun toys – including this 1996 Hummer H1 Four-Door Hard Top Pickup dubbed ‘Eliminator’.
“Acquired on August 16, 1996 – some three weeks before his passing – Tupac made swift work in tailoring his Hummer to suit him.
“Included with the car are copies of documentation including the aforementioned estate documents, a copy of the California Affidavit For Transfer Without Probate from the estate of Tupac Shakur to his mother Afeni Shakur on August 14, 1999, DMV Registration Information in the name of Yaasmyn Fula and Sardar Khan, pictures of Tupac in the Hummer, as well as various accompanying ephemera.
“This is a not-to-be-missed opportunity to get all eyez on you and acquire the last vehicle ever purchased by one of the most famous and iconic names in music history.”
