1980 DAIMLER 4.2 SOVEREIGN AUTO

This 4.2-litre Daimler Sovereign Series 3 has covered an indicated 89,502 miles, and its advisory-free MoT is valid to 15th April 2027. The red vinyl roof features a sunroof, and the black leather interior is equipped with lambswool overmats (excluding driver's) and an original Philips cassette player with electric aerial. We're told the car “drives superbly” and “never fails to impress” when out and about. The V5C shows only 4 former keepers, the latest keeper having owned it for 11 years, and the previous owner for 27. 

In late 2025 and 2026, the Daimler has received a full service (including spark plugs), front shock absorbers and bushes, ignition coil, new boot carpet and floor mats, and a new fuel tank transfer switch. It comes with a Heritage Certificate, confirming that this car was originally dispatched on 1st February 1980 to Stratstone Jaguar in Mayfair, finished in Damson Red with an Ebony interior. The car appears to have received a respray at some time in its life, and now wears the subtly different shade of Regency Red.

Although we can not guarantee the mileage, it does appear to be supported by history file, which contains MoT certificates from the last few years and maintenance receipts going back to 2001. The car also comes with its jack, owner's handbook, wiring diagram, 1988 sales receipt, old photos of the car and spare keys.
