"Well-documented and well-maintained car with classic elegance."

Description

It says Jaguar on the emblem but has Daimler’s distinctive ribbed grille. It’s not a mishmash - the Daimler V8 was sold as the Jaguar XJ8 Vanden Plas in the USA. That’s why there’s a Jaguar badge on the characteristic Daimler grille. Regardless of the branding, it was a very luxurious model. This car was sold new in Massachusetts in November 1999 and ended up in Florida after a few years. From there, it came to Sweden and was registered here in June 2008. At that time, the car had only driven just over 6000 miles. Since then, it has never been driven in the winter and has been pampered in a heated garage. To date, the odometer has turned to just over 8500 Swedish miles. Many service and parts receipts all the way back to Massachusetts are available.

Condition

  • Mechanical condition:

    In 2023, the car was at Joe’s Garage and received a new ignition coil, lambda sensor, valve cover gasket, and a check of the timing chain tensioner and water pump. Later that same year, it got new tires, propshaft bearing, universal joints, and propshaft balancing. The owner reports that there are still some vibrations remaining at speeds over 70 km/h and that the sunroof is not functioning.

  • Interior condition:

    The leather upholstery and all essential interior components are in very good condition, simply exquisite. The headliner has likely been glued up in one spot at some point in time.

  • Exterior condition:

    Very tidy and well-maintained, with a few stone chips and a couple of minor touch-ups visible.

  • General condition:

    Low mileage and full documentation on the finest variant of Jaguar/Daimler’s lineup at this time. A prime example.

Auction information

General information about the condition of the vehicles .
  • At this auction, many vehicles have been included in car collections and have been stored (mothballed) for a long time. For this reason, they are described from a collector's perspective and may need technical reviews and maintenance service - oil, battery replacement, new tires, brake review, etc. - before they can be used. .
  • During the auction days information about a vehicle may be updated up to the day before the auction ends. When you bid at the end of the auction period - and also if you have made an earlier bid - we therefore ask you to read the descriptions carefully, in case something has been changed due to new information.
