Wanted to get back in an old Jag after running a modern 7 series for a while.
After a good look around and not being able to find a nice XJ40 and not quite being brave enough to take the plunge on a Series III just now (dont have any garage space currently and i want to use the car everyday).....

So, i found this Daimler Six in Ice Blue. It's a long wheelbase model which makes it an X330 and not an X300 and has the 4 seat option, which for me all Daimlers should have,

There are a couple of small cosmetic items that need sorting, but i hope by the end of next week those will have been rectified.

That cabin looks a lovely place to be........love the picnic tables......

Daimler's are definitely one step up from Jags, regarding trim.....

very nice, I like the colour combination!
I've had quite a few of these Jaguar's and Daimler's before.
one of them was the Daimler Century (v12)... with the the power reclining type seats in the rear, and the rear centre console. That would truly be the 4 seat option though.

Don't have the car anymore, but still have the seats!

Thanks Chaps

Speckled: I think you are correct in as much as there are 3 belts in the back, but it does not have the bench seat that the Jaguars and some daimlers have,

There was a rear console available (bloody expensive) which ran through the whole car and left two completely separate rear seats. Pretty rare and very flash.

Yeah, it looks amazing (with all the electric seat buttons for the rear seats) i once saw a century with that option fitted..... The chap i bought this car from had two Daimler Century's one was a Six and the other a Double six, however they both had bench seats.
