Daimler SP250 2.5 2-Door

This particular car shows all the of the signs of love and care lavished upon it over the years, with full history and three folders brimming with all of the invoices and correspondence over the past six and a half decades, there's little wonder the car behaves so well. Having had every component rebuilt at some stage in its life of long-term ownerships, the engine, body, gearbox and the interior all having been addressed with minimal and careful usage since, the body was resprayed in the 1990's and again in 2006 hence the lovely shine and quality you see today. Upon arrival at HPC Classics, we assessed the car and have carried out a service, changing the oil, plugs and one throttle linkage rod, besides that it was very hard to find fault with the car, an ideal candidate if you're looking for a rare fibreglass lightweight British car that has performance to stick with the big names, noise and character that are head and shoulders above. With strong oil pressure from the first turn of the key, the car runs like a sewing machine using the electronic ignition. In fact, it idles so well, it will make you wonder if it is even turning over. Until you touch the throttle that is! The original steering box is still tight and leaves nothing to the imagination, you know exactly where the car is pointing at all times, such a tight and well put together example really is a delight to behold. Weighing in at under a ton, it is clear to see why the Police chose these cars, it really is a great car to drive, with very brisk performance for a car of its era, thankfully these cars are finally seeing their values rise too, as they are a very rare and unequalled experience, with quirky styling, engine design and amazing dynamics, with only two previous owners, now must be the time to dip your toe in the water!
