1975 DAIMLER SOVEREIGN SERIES 2 MANUAL OVERDRIVE For Sale by Auction

Offered for sale at auction on Tuesday 14th December at Sandown Park Racecourse, Esher, KT10 9AJ 

The Daimler Sovereign 4. 2 Series 2 offered here is a rare manual overdrive example, one of only 30 built it is thought, and has had only 4 owners from new. The car is described by the vendor as a very good example that is very solid, with good paintwork, and it is a very good vehicle to drive. The engine pulls well through all the gears, and the overdrive works as it should, giving an excellent motorway driving experience. The interior does need a little TLC, but it is mainly in good order.

The original service wallet is with the car and includes the handbook, service facilities book, wiring diagram, original service passport with eleven service stamps, a few old MOTs, and a maintenance wall chart. This car would make a great starter classic for the Jaguar and Daimler enthusiast, that also has modern performance and driving experience.
