This is my 1973 Daimler Series 1 (XJ shape) 4. 2 litre automatic Sovereign in Gunmetal Grey metallic paintwork and Cream leather interior. This model is rare and has plenty of character. There are few left remaining on the roads now. It’s a usable classic that I’ve driven both locally and on longer trips. Bodywork is not too bad overall (paintwork has some cracking on rear doors). The underside, bodywork and wheel arches are all solid. Sills are good. There are a couple of small rust spots but nothing significant. The left side fuel tank is good, but the 2nd fuel tank on the right needs replacing. The chrome work - including the large distinctive front grille is generally looking good, some of it could do with a polish. The original 4.2 engine has covered just 63,000 miles and is powerful and pulls well through the gears. Some recent work has been done on servicing the engine, carbs and rebuilding the automatic choke. The car has power assisted steering. The brakes are working well. An original large service manual comes with the car.
