Description
- First registered in 1967 and originally supplied by Steels of Bristol Ltd, this Daimler 2.5 V8 is presented in elegant Opalescent Silver Grey with a red leather interior
- Developed following Jaguar's acquisition of Daimler, the 2.5 V8 combined the acclaimed Mk2 bodyshell with Edward Turner's smooth and distinctive 2,548cc hemispherical-head V8 engine
- Featuring four-wheel disc brakes, independent front suspension and a Panhard rod-located live rear axle, the 140bhp V8 offered refined performance with a top speed of approximately 115mph
- The interior appears to retain much of its original trim, aside from what is believed to be a replacement headlining, and has developed a lovely period patina throughout
- Accompanied by its original service book together with a history file containing historic MOT Certificates dating back to the late 1970s
- Recent maintenance includes removal and cleaning of the fuel tank, flushing of the fuel system and attention to the front braking system
- Displaying just over 40,000 miles at the time of cataloguing
- MOT exempt due to its historic vehicle status, with its last MOT expiring in June 2026 and very little use since
- A charming and increasingly sought-after British sporting saloon, offering elegant styling, a wonderfully smooth V8 engine and exceptional value in today's classic car market
