Comments from the seller

The car is actually a 1982 Daimler Vanden Plas with the six cylinder 4.2 litre Jaguar engine. The same mechanicals as a 1982 Jaguar Series 3 but with the extra top of the line Daimler Vanden Plas additions. The car is a four seat configuration as shown in the photos. The Daimler is in excellent overall condition both inside and out. It runs beautifully. Reason for sale is that we have recently moved to a new place and I simply do not have the garage accommodation to protect the car as it deserves. We are located in Royalla just south of Queanbeyan. The car has never been involved in an accident has always been garaged and has no rust. The Daimler is currently on historic registration that cannot be transferred. Any inspection welcome, you will not be disappointed. Recent maintenance includes a new alternator, replacement of all engine drive belts, flush and refill of brake fluid, auto transmission service, complete grease and oil change.
