2548cc V8, automatic. The vendor acquired this handsome Daimler V8 250 from the deceased estate of a friend 6 years ago, and has kept it stored inside ever since. The red leather interior wears only a gentle patina, and despite a few small blemishes in the chrome and metallic grey paintwork is in respectable overall condition, with 58,073 miles showing on the odometer.

The history file contains a nice collection of maintenance invoices going back to the 1980s, MoT certificates covering 1974 to 2017, and an original service handbook. MoT tests were being carried out annually up to 2017, and the last inspection was passed with no advisories only 30 miles ago. 

This is a Daimler 2.5 V8, although its V5C records it as a 250 V8 (which was the facelifted model, launched in October 1967). First registration was in June 1967.
