Description
DEK:[the details below]
One of the last great British saloons built according to a philosophy that has now disappeared.
This ** 2008 Daimler Super Eight** represents the absolute pinnacle of the XJ range of its era: a prestige limousine capable of combining hand-crafted construction, first-class comfort and the performance of the mighty ** 4. 2-litre Supercharged V8 with 394 bhp**.
This is not simply a particularly well-equipped Jaguar XJ. The Super Eight was the Daimler interpretation designed for those seeking the ultimate in exclusivity, finish and comfort, whilst retaining under the bonnet the mechanics of Jaguar's most powerful supercharged V8 family.
The example offered has covered only ** 66, 000 km** and retains a configuration of great elegance: dark green bodywork paired with ** light leather interior**, wood veneers and chrome details.
The rear cabin tells the story of this car's calibre better than any specification sheet: generous space for passengers, ** monitors integrated into the front headrests, rear tables finished in wood**, climate control and dedicated controls, plus a sunroof. A true saloon designed to be experienced from the rear seats.
Beneath the bonnet sits the ** 4. 2-litre Supercharged V8**, paired with automatic transmission and rear-wheel drive: an exceptionally smooth engine in everyday use yet capable of impressive performance even by today's standards, perfectly in keeping with the tradition of high-performance Daimlers.
Particularly noteworthy is the car's history: the available CARFAX documentation shows no damage, imports, administrative issues or liens, and indicates consistent mileage progression over time.
Also available are ** numerous invoices and documentation relating to all work carried out**, a particularly important factor for a car of this category and age.
Why it's a special car
The Daimler Super Eight belongs to a generation unlikely to be repeated: a large long-wheelbase saloon, supercharged V8 engine, rear-wheel drive, extensive use of leather and genuine wood, and a profoundly British character.
It is also one of the last expressions of the historic ** Daimler Super Eight** designation, used on the most prestigious versions of the Jaguar XJ.
A motor car destined today not only for those seeking a luxury saloon, but also for the enthusiast who wishes to preserve one of the last great British flagships with a Supercharged V8 engine.
