Bijzonderheden
When Jaguar launched the XJ6 in 1968 it instantly set a new standard for luxury. The race tested XK engine was smooth as well as powerful and Bob Knight’s chassis tuning genius had enabled William Lyons to produce a truly beautiful car that was also more refined than any other in the world; no matter what the price. Jaguar bought the Daimler Company in 1960 and, apart from the DS420 Limousine so loved by the Queen Mother, all new Daimlers produced since have been more luxuriously trimmed and comfort biased versions of Jaguar models fitted with Daimler’s distinctive crinkle grille. The series I Sovereign 2.8, modelled here, was based on the sensational XJ6 and was launched in 1969. Daimler versions of the XJ range, at different times in six, eight and twelve cylinder forms, have shadowed Jaguar’s models ever since. Non-limited Edition
