Vehicle Details

AI Listing Summary

This 1970 Daimler Sovereign 2.8, sold for £4,275, features a desirable automatic transmission, blue leather interior, and a Webasto-type sunroof. With only 57,000 recorded miles and little use in recent years, it's described as being in very good overall condition, making it an attractive proposition for classic car enthusiasts.

Condition 

7

The car is described as being in very good overall condition. It has a credible 57,000 miles and has seen little use in the last 13 years. The description does not highlight any major flaws, suggesting only minor reconditioning may be required to bring it to excellent condition. However, without a physical inspection, 'Very Good' seems an accurate and unbiased assessment.
