Happy Friday. Feeling lucky? Well, roll the dice (sorry) on this Double Six, slightly over top thread.

I've always loved how understated the name "Double Six" is. Yes, it has a V12 but a Daimler is not for the braggart who would wish to shout about it.https://www.carandclassic.com/l/C1688960
Even Super Eight feels like they decided the Jaguar naming scheme was too "turbo nutter XRi"

Lovely car, but... check the MOT history. Like all these X300s, the mechanicals are one thing, the underside corrosion potential is another. All 4 areas that usually go have been noted previously , and probably repaired, but they'll just keep coming back eventually unless a really proper job has been done to fix them, and the subframes too.https://www.carandclassic.com/l/C1688960

Nice spec. MOT history suggests it will need some welding at some point, but most E39s will.
Hard to tell.

I had an auto 200.
They do get there eventually, but it will be fine. Bogo bogo spec.l - excellent.

Friend of mine reckons the wiring looms are rubbish and break all the time.
Is he talking rubbish?
It's an issue for later cars with multivalve engines, but even then replacement isn't the end of the world.Is he talking rubbish?
Not sure how much I'd fancy a manual especially with the foot operated parking brake,
No rust, yet living by the sea doesn't add up for me, I'd want to check it very carefully. It'd have to be near perfect at that money.
Just the thing for the summer months. Price seems.....reasonable. This dealership always ahs something interesting in stock.

It’s in nice nick, so it’s a compromise.

Dad had one of these in the early noughties, a manual 200E. Still considers it his best ever car.Wulf Sternhammer said:

Very much want, as it reminds me of my broken XF which made a SOTW appearance a couple of weeks back. Bet it's good with the V8.Gassing Station | Car Buying | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
