The previous owner set a brief to build a no-expense- spared Daily Classic incorporating the luxuries you may expect from a 2014 Mercedes-Benz S-Class.

The result is exceptional. A nut & bolt rebuild was completed on this car to bring it to new standards whilst keeping the classic look, including sympathetic upgrades to modern specifications. Beginning with the engine, this was completely rebuilt with a bigger valved 4.2 injection head and 8:1 Pistons. The gearbox which is all synchro has an uprated 4.2 overdrive unit; the rear axle, with a 3.54 lock diff has all bearings replaced; new UJ's to the prop shaft; new steering rack; new hubs, wheel bearings, rubber bushes, rear Boge shocks, heavy duty lowered Coombes springs, front Gaz shocks and a Harvey Bailey front roll bar all professionally set up. You name it, it's had it.

The list of modifications adorned to this car is endless, but consists not entirely of the following: Powerful Air conditioning, power steering, 65 amp alternator, aluminium competition radiator, Coopercraft front calipers with vented discs and EBC pads, rear E-Type calipers, oil cooler, competition stainless steel free-flow exhaust with cast iron heat wrapped manifold, upgraded Smiths heater with stainless steel water pipes and electric engine cooling fan, eight new Smiths dials made for the car; leather centre armrest, electronic speedo with digital odometer, high torque starter motor, fully alarmed, XJ40 front electric seats with rear illuminated walnut picnic trays, electric front and rear windows with rear window immobiliser switch, heated front and rear screens, cruise control actuated from the gear knob, remote central locking with auto window closure, new wiper motor with variable speed wipers, built-in satellite navigation system, CD player and memory card, Bluetooth phone and IPod connection including lead, rear view camera and upgraded speakers! As we said, you name it, it's had it...

Driving the car is a revelation. The handling is superb and it is able to cruise effortlessly at 100mph with the engine just ticking over. A photographic history of the extensive rebuild comes with the car. This is an opportunity to buy a Jaguar with classic good looks but everyday usability in modern conditions. It cost a fortune to produce and is being sold for a fraction of its rebuild cost.

- Heated front and rear screens, cruise control etc.

For some there is a desire to improve and develop a classic design to bring it into the modern age, and in so doing, provide levels of performance and luxury the original designers could only dream about. This amazing Mk2 is just such an example, having been restored by a previous owner who specified numerous additions and improvements to turn the car into a highly useable luxurious every day mode of transport whilst retaining the timeless looks and appeal of the original. Powered by a 3.8 litre engine with 4.2 injection head, 8:1 pistons and 4.2 overdrive all-synchromesh gearbox, the car is said to cruise effortlessly, whilst the modified suspension set up provides handling to match. Power steering, cruise control, electric windows, electric cooling fan, variable speed wipers, central locking, XJ40 electric front seats and air-conditioning etc. add to the cosseting driving experience.

A true gentleman's express, this Mk2 would cost a fortune to replicate and is worthy of the closest inspection.
