Background:Hand-built at Castle Bromwich in the West Midlands, the Daimler Super Eight represented the pinnacle of Jaguar’s X350-series saloons. Distinguished by its unique grille, luxury-focused specification and extended wheelbase, it was the most refined model offered by the marque and marked the final chapter for the Daimler nameplate. Powered by a supercharged 4.2-litre V8 and equipped with advanced aluminium construction, the Super Eight combined formidable performance with limousine-grade comfort and was produced in very limited numbers before production ended in 2008.
