Description

This 1973 Daimler Double-Six Vanden Plas blends stately presence with smooth, effortless V12 performance. On the move it cruises serenely, the V12 delivering a hushed, confident surge through the automatic gearbox. Steering and suspension enhancements help the car feel composed and comfortable, making long-distance driving enjoyable rather than arduous.

Inside the Vanden Plas trim the original wood veneer and well-preserved interior offer a genuine sense of luxury and provenance. Practical touches such as air-conditioning and electric windows add day-to-day usability, while extensive documented history and period accessories make this a compelling choice for collectors seeking a refined, usable classic.
