The Daimler 250 V8 was produced by Daimler from 1962 to 1969. It is known for its elegant design, luxurious interior and powerful engine. The 250 V8 is powered by a 2.5 litre V8 engine, producing 140bhp and 155 lb-ft of torque, which provides a far smoother and more refined driving experience to its shoutier Jaguar cousin. The 250 V8 was a popular choice among luxury car buyers in the 1960s due to its comfortable ride and high-end features, such as leather seats, wood trim, and electric windows. Its classic design, with its iconic fluted grille and sleek lines, has aged well and is still highly regarded by classic car enthusiasts.

First registered 13th November 1698, this Dailmer 250 boasting the lovely V8 engine is presented in burgundy with a contrasting black leather trim. The interior has been restored including new headlining and a 007 style hidden 7" screen for Satellite Navigation and audio professionally installed in the glove box. The wheels are painted black and the lucky number seven adorns the car. The previous owner used the car as a fast road/rally 'Coombs' style tribute and entered several road rallies. The dealer sticker in the rear windscreen alludes to the car having perhaps been supplied or at some point sold by Coombs themselves. Boasting upgrades including race specification aluminium radiator and with the V8 engine, the vendor describes the car as great fun to drive. Offered to auction without reserve, this Daimler is sure to generate interest. Consigned by Mathew Priddy
