History and Paperwork
• First Registered 01 September 2001
• 7 previous registered keepers- last (before me) 03/ 09/ 2013 to 21/ 02/ 2020
• In 2008 the car was declared a Category C (often shortened to 'Cat C') accident vehicle which meant the insurer had deemed the cost of accident repair to exceed the value of the vehicle. It was confirmed to me -by the Dealer who serviced and subsequently sold the car in 2009 -that in this case the damage was non-structural from a low speed car parking shunt causing some cosmetic damage to the rear of the car and boot lid . The car was subsequently repaired by the owner (including a full respray) and declared roadworthy by DVLA. The car has since then passed all MOT’s without related issue.

Supplied with:
• Copies of 17 years of MOT certificates and current V5C document
• Original book pack with Daimler wallet and original keys
• Original Jaguar/ Daimler Service Book with 16 stamps over 23 years -last at 75, 313 miles on 14 November 2025
• Currently indicates 75, 419 miles - verified by the car's service history
• Car has completed 10, 000 miles in my 5. 5 years of ownership -mainly for holidays or “special occasion trips” -without any problems whatsoever. 100% reliable.

The Condition
• Dealer Waxoyled from new so NO SIGNIFICANT RUST. Underside in very good order
• Overall condition excellent for vehicle's age.
• Very attractive and much admired colour combination
• Exterior appearance excellent -overall very original with very few pings, chips or scuffs
• Door bottoms, sills, and wheel arches all in very good condition
• Car has its original alloys- great condition without scuffs
• Includes 2 keys and 3 remote key fobs, all working perfectlyMy excellent Daimler Super V8 luxurious executive saloon is for sale!. With only 75313 miles covered since new, the condition is outstanding for a car (almost) 25 years old. Everything works as it should without faults.

Fully equipped with all Daimler refinements including Personal number plate (K5 KYS). Just over 10 thousand (summer) miles completed over 5. 5 years in my ownership -a pleasure to drive and totally reliable . Owner a Jaguar/ Daimler enthusiast and the car benefits from a recent full service history by a respected local Jaguar Specialist during my ownership. See the Service Book History from new (in the pictures attached).

There are 7 previous registered keepers ;
-the first for the Major of Winchester as a chauffeur driven car for civic duties for 7 years (2001- 2008) for the first 50k miles or so. Specified with the rare black body paint / black leather factory colour option.
-the last (prior to me) a Jaguar/ Daimler enthusiast who owned the car from 3/ 9/ 2013 to 21/ 02/ 2020 with a relatively low mileage.

This particular vehicle has thus been very well kept, with an extensive service history including being garaged indoors from new, and this reflects in the exterior , interior and overall mechanical conditions. I had a full mechanical inspection by a Jaguar Specialist prior to my purchase on 21/ 02/ 2020 which confirmed the excellent mechanical and bodily condition of the car.
Recent Maintenance;
• Matching tyres all around (all new front and rear tyres May 2024)
• New battery May 2025
• Interior in very good condition overall -no significant wear on leather seat bolsters. Professionally fitted new headlining 2023.
• Full routine service by Jaguar Specialist 18th November 2025 including new front brake pads and discs and new Offside Front Caliper.(Receipt for £1059. 76)
