The Daimler Sovereign Coupé is a classic embodiment of British automotive craftsmanship, combining luxury with timeless design. Produced during an era when Daimler was synonymous with prestige, the Coupé is a distinguished variant of the more common saloon models, offering a unique blend of sophistication and performance.

Unlike its saloon counterpart, the Coupé features a two-door body style, lending it a sportier, more exclusive feel. The roofline is elegantly curved, seamlessly integrating with the car’s overall profile. Chrome accents and the iconic Daimler fluted grille add to its distinguished appearance, making it a true head-turner.

This stunning example has been lovingly restored to its former glory, with several updates to enhance the driving experience. The high-quality ground-up restoration work was carried out by renowned Jaguar expert restorer Keith Parrington of XJ Restorations in the UK, the same workshop responsible for Harry Metcalfe’s own Coupé as seen in an episode of Harry’s Garage.

The body is finished in Jaguar maroon red and remains rust-free and rock solid.  The interior was reworked in supple Vanilla and is in excellent condition. Mechanical updates include an Emerald ECU for more power and better fuel economy for the silky-smooth 5.3-litre V12 and a complete suspension kit from Harvey Bailey Engineering for improved driving dynamics and comfort.

Today, the Daimler Sovereign Coupé is a sought-after classic, prized for its rarity and elegance. With limited production numbers, finding one in pristine condition is a rare treat for enthusiasts and collectors alike. Its enduring appeal lies in its luxurious heritage and status as a symbol of a bygone era of British motoring excellence.
