Daimler 2.5-litre V8/V8-250
Edmund Waterhouse
The Daimler 2.5 Litre V8 was the first Daimler-Jaguar car and proved to be the most successful. Equipped with a Turner 2.5-litre engine in a Jaguar Mk II chassis, the car proved to be an enduring amalgamation of traditional Daimler luxury and Jaguar styling. A revised model was introduced in 1967, designated the V8-250, before the model was replaced in 1969 by the Daimler Sovereign, based on the Jaguar XJ-6.This book examines Jaguar’s plans for incorporating Daimler into its model line and how it made the most of the Daimler assets it had bought, including the exceptionally smooth and refined Edward Turner V8 engine. The book examines the technical and engineering modifications that were made to the Jaguar Mk II bodyshell and the various modifications that distinguished it from its Jaguar equivalent. The book also includes contemporary press reaction as well as owners’ views. The author also discusses the various improvements that were made to remedy early design weaknesses.Including a wide variety of photographs, this book is a unique tribute to Daimler and Jaguar’s first and most successful joint venture.
