Daimler sovereign 4.2 series 3, in racing green with contrasting cloth interior (unusual as Daimlers had leather). The body work is good and the interior is good, even the original lamb’s wool rugs are still with the car. The car has all the toys: cruise control; air-conditioning; electric mirrors and windows; and central locking. It has a long MOT, only one Advisory, all old tyres are now replaced with new.

The car has done 120k with a box full of service history. The LPG fitted has a certificate of installation by sovereign classics in 2001, an approved installer, but not an LPGA certificate as it was installed before the scheme started, but they acknowledged that it was installed, emails from them. Would recommend that the system is serviced before use (have had it running on LPG). The car has done about 100 mile trip and drove fine with good oil pressure. Was rescued from a factory having been bricked in for 12 years and has been recommissioned; has had an engine service; and new brake pads all round.

The car needs using and includes and interesting number plate. Driving this car takes you straight back to the eighties. All you need is a sheep skin coat a trilby hat cigar and a friend called Terry Mccan - Ready to drive away.
