Jaguar Daimler Sovereign 4.2 (1967)

Leonard Deppen

Kickdown's Take

by Leonard Deppen

This Daimler Sovereign 4.2 is based on the Jaguar 420 and combines British elegance with the refined 4.2-liter six-cylinder engine. The combination of green paint, light green leather, fine wood, and spoked wheels creates a harmonious and very stylish look in its original form. The car was completely rebuilt, the engine was overhauled, and 9,000 euros were invested in the restoration. An appraisal with a grade of 2 and an “H” license plate underscore its excellent condition. A classic for lovers of British sedans that, on top of that, glides along wonderfully smoothly.
