Lot 3001
PLEASE NOTE: The vendor had hoped to present this lot for sale with a fresh MOT certificate. However, it has just failed a MOT test due to an ABS fault. A copy of the relevant fail sheet will be available for inspection alongside the rest of the Daimler's paperwork. - Flagship XJ40 model but 1 of only c.235 known survivors - 66,900 recorded miles and worthy of close inspection - Cream leather upholstery, walnut veneers and MOT'd till Feb 2016 Further Info: Notable as the last Jaguar to receive design input from marque founder Sir William Lyons, the XJ40 can also be credited with securing the company's future. As befitted its range-topping status, the Daimler 3.6 variant boasted leather upholstery, air conditioning, electric windows, rear picnic tables, electric front seats and central locking as standard. Quoted as developing some 221bhp and 240lbft of torque, its 3.6-litre DOHC 24-valve straight-six engine was allied to four-speed automatic transmission (complete with Jaguar's intuitive `J-gate' to aid manual changes). Reputedly capable of 135mph and 0-60mph in 8.8 seconds, the Daimler 3.6 offered a wonderfully cosseting experience for driver and passenger alike. 1 of only circa 235 survivors known to the DVLA, `E272 MDE' is understood to have covered just 66,900 miles from new. A late `black rear plinth' example that has reportedly been cherished by its previous keepers, the Daimler is also said to boast an `impressive service history'. Recently rejuvenated, its cream leather upholstery is complimented by beige carpets and walnut veneers.
