Description
1977 Daimler XJC Sovereign 4.2 Manual with Overdrive
This exceptionally rare 1977 Daimler XJC Sovereign 4.2 is finished in a striking blue and is one of very few factory-built manual cars with overdrive, making it a highly desirable collector’s example.
The car has been carefully maintained and improved by its current owner, who has invested significantly to ensure it runs beautifully while adding subtle upgrades for reliability and driving enjoyment. Recent notable work includes:
• Series 3 engine rebuild (£11,000)
• Gearbox rebuild and new clutch
• Back axle rebuilt with new rear brakes
• Rear adjustable shocks
• New front radiator with twin fans
• New SU H8 carburettor with manual choke
• Stainless steel exhaust system
• Upgraded front headlights & LED dash lights
• Moto-Lita steering wheel
The result is a car that starts, drives, and sounds exactly as it should – offering a touch more sporting character while retaining its Daimler refinement.
Showing just 37,000 miles, this XJC presents superbly. It will come with a fresh MOT for peace of mind.
A genuine rarity, this Daimler XJC blends elegance, performance, and exclusivity – a special opportunity for the next enthusiast custodian.
