The vendor states that this 1974 Daimler Double Six Vanden Plas Long Wheel Base Series II Saloon Automatic, is the Ultra Rare V12 Carburettor Engine Model. The car is has only 55,000 MILES FROM NEW. It is finished in possibly the finest colour combination of Morello Cherry Metallic, with a Black Vinyl Roof, with Full Biscuit Hide trim, It has Chromium Pressed Wheels, and Green Tinted Glass By Royal Doulton. Originally Supplied By Loxleys Ltd of Bromley on 14th September 1974. It has a beautiful Service History File, which Includes: a quantity of previous MoT Test Certificates confirming the Low mileage. It has the original Daimler Wallet Including the Passport To Service, previous Tax Discs, a full set of Owners Books & Operating Guides, Manuals, rare Full Workshop Manual and more. It also details all works carried out, Jaguar/Daimler Enthusiast ownership, even a valuation from a Jaguar Main Dealership 11 Years Ago valuing it at £9,000 and plenty more. This stunning example has been cherished since new and It clearly shows today! Heated Garage stored when not being taken to Shows. Not often do we come across such a sharp and well detailed vehicle! Showing no signs of any welding repairs, the eye catching Coach Work is still as new. It drives as Superbly as you'd expect and no doubt puts a Rolls Royce or Bentley to shame. The interior retains that fantastic aroma of Fine Leather and all Highly Polished Burr-Walnut Veneers have kept their mirror like lustre after 41 years. A very rare motor car today and not to be confused with lesser quality examples offered.
