This lot will be auctioned via Iconic Auctioneers, The Classic Sale at the NEC Classic Motor Show 2025 on Sunday the 9th of November, NEC, Birmingham, B40 1NT. Introduced in October 1967, the V8 250 was a minor facelift of the long-running 2.5 V8 Saloon Differences were minor - slimline bumpers and over-riders, negative-earth electrics, an alternator instead of a dynamo, padded door cappings, reclinable split-bench front seats and a heated rear window First registered in 1969, this example is finished in Old English White with a dark blue leather interior, the latter still in its original condition and displaying a gently matured patina Resprayed in 2021 by the previous long term owner, with the paintwork and body now presenting well, complemented by stainless steel exhausts and original chrome bumpers Powered by Daimler’s lusty 2.5-litre V8 engine mated to an automatic gearbox with power steering, delivering a smooth and effortless drive Starts readily from its push-button ignition, with smooth gear changes, positive steering and confident braking – 'drives and stops nicely' in the words of our vendor The speedometer is working, although the odometer has ceased to record mileage, currently showing 64,900 miles which is not warranted Previously owned for 19 years by an ex-AA mechanic while living in Spain, always garaged and evidently well maintained Accompanied by a history file including numerous old bills, MOT Certificates and tax discs, supporting its provenance and continuity of care This would make a great entry level classic at about half the cost of the equivalent Mk2 Jaguar
