The seller offers for sale a 1992 Daimler Double Six sedan with automatic transmission and a 5.3-litre V12 petrol engine. This luxury saloon has had only three owners. It retains its originality and has been driven mainly in summer. The body shows minor age-related marks, while the interior is in good condition, featuring full equipment including a period-correct mobile phone. Mechanically, the car runs smoothly with no smoke, starting problems, or abnormal noises, and the gearbox shifts seamlessly. Some light surface corrosion is noted in typical areas near the radiator bracket and the lower edge of the driver’s door. Original alloy wheels are supplied separately; the car currently wears steel rims with chrome caps. Overall, it is a fine and elegant example of the luxurious Daimler V12 saloon.
The Daimler Double Six was the flagship model of the Jaguar XJ range, offering exceptional comfort, refinement, and craftsmanship. Powered by Jaguar’s smooth 5.3- or 6.0-litre V12, it was one of the last cars to carry the Daimler name with true distinction. Known for its quiet ride, supple suspension, and handcrafted wood and leather interior, the Double Six combined British elegance with grand touring capability. Today it is admired for its timeless styling and serene performance, making it a desirable choice among classic luxury car enthusiasts.
