Here we have the "OG" of Eighties Success! This was the car of choice for every CEO in the Eighties and early Nineties! This is a very late production, 1991 Daimler Double Six SIII, sold new to Jaguar Cars Japan, she is finished in the perfect colours of Gunmetal Grey with Oatmeal Leather Interior, she has covered 79k Kms (49k Miles) from new and is in a lovely condition with a Fresh Advisory Free MOT!

The chairman of Jaguar at the time 'Lofty' England declared that the new V12 luxury saloon was to be baptised the Daimler Double-Six and a legend was born. The Series III, the final derivative of the Daimler Double-Six, arrived in 1979 and like its predecessors benefited from the clean cut, new body designed by famed Italian design house, Pininfarina. The new design featured more glass, slightly squarer lines around the roof area and up to date front and rear styling. The Series III soldiered on until the late 1980s, outliving the XJ6, the departure of which was delayed by problems installing the engine in the new XJ40 series. This was the flagship car in the Jaguar/Daimler line and was produced until the end of 1992. It would be hard to imagine news footage of the 1980s and early 1990s without a member of the cabinet or the House of Windsor ascending elegantly out of a Double-Six. No other car of that period epitomised brisk luxury travel like a Daimler and in such a truly understated British fashion. This car was not concerned with the pomp and showmanship of a Rolls-Royce, it was a Daimler and it meant business. The export market adored it.

This beautiful example was originally exported to Japan and stayed there until 2010 when imported by an Importation Specialist. It is now very common to find cars here in the UK which have been imported from Japan, usually due to the condition the cars tend to be in, their roads are un-salted thus leading to largely rust-free cars and their MoT test equivalent is particularly stringent, meaning cars are kept in very good condition. The Gunmetal Grey coachwork gleams and is hard to fault, as is the Oatmeal Leather interior. The early Japanese history has been mislaid over the years but the last 15 years of MOT's show the car being cherished and only having covered 3k Kms in this time, having only 77k Kms at date of import. The car has only had 3 owners in the last 15 years, the last for over 10 years! The car had a big £4k service 5 years ago and has covered minimal mileage since then and drives perfectly. She comes with a new MOT with No Advisories at all. This is an excellent late (H Reg) example of the quintessential British luxury saloon and is one of very few remaining in such superb condition.
