Hi

Just bought a Daimler V8 at the weekend. 1998 model and seemingly in good condition. Have had a few runs out in her, and no issues to report........as yet.

No doubt I will be using this forum in the coming months.

Thanks

Bollotti

 

Welcome to the forum,

Good to have you with us.
I'm sure you will find something to fix soon. :-)
You seem to be on the wrong side of that border!

You should add your car details to your signature to help others to help you.

 

Welcome Bollotti,

Looks like the right side of Hadrian's Wall to me.

Check the XJ ( X308 ) XJ8 / XJR - Jaguar Forums - Jaguar Enthusiasts Forum section for advice and information on your Daimler.

I only recently moved from the Scottish side to the English side, so force of habit saying Scottish Borders. However I am only a stones throw away from the border.

 

That clears that up.
Were you kidnapped?

 

Here are some pictures of my Daimler







Just had a few scratches and dents sorted, so body is as good as new now.

 

Looking good.

Not many LWB X308's in the UK. I had a long search to find a black one and had to settle for a Jaguar.



Any pics of the interior? Daimlers always have a superb finish.

here you go:

 

The extra legroom in the back makes all the difference.

I had a drive of a Super V8 Daimler when they first came out, and always wanted one.

If one of those came along at the right price, I think I would seriously consider buying it.

 

Superb.



The Jaguar is the same extra legroom but the rear bench seat just doesn't compare with the Daimler individual seats.

I do prefer the darker colours, I don't think I have seen a long wheelbase Jag, just thought they were for the Daimler.

 

Welcome!

 

Welcome to the forum.

Good to see you.

Great looking car you have there.
