Presented in Royal Blue with a contrasting red leather interior, this extremely well built and well prepared example has much to commend it. Originally delivered to Kellogg Co. as a company car, its history, since then, is well documented in the accompanying extensive file. It was fully restored by the previous owner in 2012 to include a new five-speed gearbox conversion from the original automatic unit. The engine has also been expertly tuned and it benefits from the addition of power-assisted steering. Coopercraft brakes can be found on all four corners alongside chrome wire wheels, uprated springs and a stainless steel exhaust. Other sensible upgrades include a Kenlowe fan under the bonnet and a modern, heated rear windscreen to the rear. Complete with Jaguar/Daimler Heritage Trust Certificate and a recent 12 month MoT test certificate, this fine example optimises the marque and represents very good value for money.

Spam prevention question (must be answered):
The father of jokes about warm beer and smoke escaping from wires is Joseph Lucas. Lucas died of typhoid after drinking infected water in Naples in 1902.

What disease did Lucas succumb to?
