The Daimler 250 2.5 V8 Saloon was produced between 1962 and 1967. The engine was a Daimler 2.5-litre V8 (2548cc), whilst the body was based on the Jaguar mk2 (Jaguar 240 and Jaguar 340), though internally more luxurious, with a number of external Daimler features: Daimler front grille, wheels, rear number plate surround etc. Daimler was, of course, owned by Jaguar at this time, with the Daimler marque reserved for their most luxurious saloons. It's a great looking and beautifully built car! This one was registered in March 1967.

Country of manufacture: UNITED KINGDOM

The 1968-69 Daimler V8-250 was the result of the 1967 minor revamp of the earlier 60s Daimler 2.5 V8, These changes were mostly cosmetic, with the V8-250 keeping the same Daimler 2.5-litre V8 (2548cc) engine, although there were a number of electrical upgrades. Daimler was a super-luxury brand, and after it was bought from BSA by Jaguar in 1960, the marque was applied to Jaguars most luxurious offerings. The Daimler 250 was effectively a supremely appointed Jaguar mk2 with the Daimer 2.5 V8 engine. This stunning example was registered in October 1969.
