An imposing-looking executive limousine, Daimler's DS420 served as an official state car in many countries - not least for the House of Windsor. It also found favour with numerous embassies, local authorities, funeral parlours and up-market hotels (for example, the Inter-Continental in Hong Kong alone is said to have purchased 22 DS420s over the years). It was based on a lengthened version of the Jaguar MkX platform and is powered by the legendary 4. 2-litre variant of the Jaguar XK power unit.
Supplied new by Stratstone Mayfair and still wearing it's dealer plates, D209 EYW has been in current ownership since 2011 where it has benefited from much expenditure. Subject to a significant refresh since being purchased by the vendor, invoices relating to works carried out are contained in the history file including over £5, 000 spent with David Keeling, Veteran And Vintage Vehicle Restoration Specialist. Resplendent in black over cream paintwork with black interior, it currently registers some 35, 700 miles. Offered with current MOT to August 2026 and Swansea V5C.
