Description
When Jaguar got hold of Daimler, they had a great 2.5 litre, V8 engine that Edward Turner had recently designed and had been putting into the enigmatic Daimler Dart.
They discovered it fitted nicely in the Mk.
II body shell and had the added bonus of being quicker than the entry level 2.4 litre XK units without out-shining the larger power plants.
It's lighter than the XK-engined Mk.
II therefore gets better fuel economy and handles better, although lacks the performance of the 3.4 litre and 3.8 litre.
It has a desirable torque curve and has been described as a more refined to drive.
It was supplied with the option of a four-speed manual gearbox with overdrive or a more desirable three-speed automatic gearbox.
This automatic Daimler V8 Saloon was first registered on 3rd July 1964 and is presented in Westminster Blue with contrasting red leather interior.
This example boasts the original carpets which are in good condition and the wood dash which is offered in fair condition.
