About this car

The Double Six was Daimler's V12 flagship saloon, pairing Jaguar's 5.3-litre twelve-cylinder engine with a more upmarket cabin. This 1991 car is finished in Diamond Blue and has covered 46,000 miles.

It was previously restored by JD Classics, with invoices stated to exceed £34,000. One of the last new interiors supplied by Jaguar has been fitted, in magnolia hide with blue piping and blue carpets. Equipment includes factory air conditioning, an electric steel sunroof, electric windows, ABS and limousine-spec carpets.

The page reports a full history file with the original purchase invoice, and a titled owner for 23 years. It has recently come out of climate-controlled storage.
