Description
This 1986 Daimler Double Six, originally delivered in Switzerland, is a well-maintained example. With its Regent Grey exterior and refined Savile Grey leather interior, this Double Six is not only a timeless car but also rarer and more exclusive than its Jaguar counterpart.
Extensive documentation
A significant advantage of this Double Six is the extensive documentation that comes with the car. In addition to the original Daimler literature, which includes manuals and maintenance instructions, the car comes with a detailed collection of invoices. These invoices, ranging from recent to many years ago, demonstrate that no expense was spared on maintenance. Besides dealer servicing, maintenance was also performed by specialized companies, resulting in a car that is in good technical condition.
Elegant design and excellent condition
The combination of stylish Regent Grey with subtle chrome accents and the sleek lines of the body gives this Daimler a distinguished appearance. The bodywork is in good condition, with very good panel gaps. The chrome trims and windows are also in beautiful condition. The wheels are impeccable and reflect the same care as the other parts of the exterior.
Refined interior with beautiful details
The interior of this Daimler is a true delight for the senses. The original Savile Grey leather upholstery has developed a beautiful patina, exactly as it should in a carefully maintained classic of this caliber. The dashboard, with its fine accents and refined instruments, is a real eye-catcher. From the well-preserved carpets to the wooden steering wheel and the complete set of instruments, the whole interior looks fantastic. The comfort of the interior is further enhanced by the sunroof and automatic transmission, making every ride a pleasurable experience.
Powerful V12 engine and exceptionally smooth driving characteristics
The Daimler Double Six is equipped with the legendary V12 engine, a power plant known for its smooth operation and impressive performance. The engine’s sound is wonderfully deep, silent when it needs to be, and perfectly matches the stately appearance of the car. The automatic transmission shifts very well and ensures a comfortable driving experience under all conditions. The handling is as you would expect from a Daimler: stable, comfortable, and a pleasure time and again.
The golden age of the British automotive industry
The Daimler Double Six belongs to the golden age of the Jaguar series. These models are known for their refined design, which, combined with the powerful V12 engine, offers an unparalleled driving experience. The XJ/ Daimler Sovereign models were at the time the epitome of British luxury and innovation and were praised for their robust build quality and refined driving characteristics. The V12 engine, also found in this Double Six, was the powerhouse that elevated these cars to a higher level and earned them the title of ‘Best Car in the World.’
