About this car

The Sovereign was Daimler's upmarket take on the Jaguar XJ6 Series III, pairing the Jaguar saloon's shape with a more traditional, richly trimmed cabin. This 1981 car has the 4.2-litre petrol engine and an automatic gearbox, and is finished in brown.

It shows 97,312 miles. The dealer describes it as running and driving well and in good condition for its age. The current V5 is present, and the car is registered as historic, so it is exempt from road tax and the MOT.
