Lot 109: Daimler Sovereign 4.0

The all new XJ40 replaced the 6 cylinder S3 XJ6 in 1986. The model was first mooted in the days of British Leyland and the initial design prevented the fitting of a V formation engine. This is why it was another 7 years before the V12 version appeared. As with all previous Jaguar saloons, since the early 60's, the XJ40/XJ6 also came in Daimler guise. Offered here is a 1990 Daimler 4.0 saloon, which is described as being in outstanding condition throughout, with working air conditioning and beautiful beige leather interior. As a Daimler the car has a more luxurious specification, which includes picnic tables for rear seat passengers. Finished in fern green with beige leather, the car is said to be complete with an extensive history file, which includes invoices for recent major works, 10 previous MoT certificates and general service requirements. The car is also complete with the original tool kit and is said to drive exceptionally well.
