Classic car auctions close their catalogue for the Warwickshire Collection Part 3

• 1983 Jaguar XJ-S HE 5.3 Lynx Eventer
• 1972 Daimler Double-Six Series 1
• 1994 Daimler Majestic (XJ40)
• 1993 Jaguar XJS 5.3 Auto Convertible

The Warwickshire Collection Part 3 forms part of Classic Car Auctions Spring Live Online Auction, which is just over a week away, taking place on Friday 26th March. The Classic Car Sale will commence at 11am, followed by this collection at 3pm. Classic Car Auctions have now closed their catalogue.

One special car in the private collection is the 1983 Jaguar XJ-S HE 5.3 Lynx Eventer. This example is finished in a beautiful Silver Green with Dark Chocolate leather upholstery and the condition of paint indicates professional respray. The car shows 34,674 unwarranted miles and was once an award winner at Salon Privé 2012 Concours. Classic Car Auctions suggest an element of recommissioning is to be expected prior to the car returning to the
road.

Another car included within the private collection is this 1972 Daimler Double-Six Series 1. With six former keepers, it is one of only 534 Series 1 cars with very few left. Presented in a gleaming Sable Brown with a Cinnamon interior and a period Webasto roof – this example is also supplied with a Heritage Certificate and
history.

Gary Dunne, CCA’s Sales Manager commented “We are extremely delighted to have the opportunity to offer this significant private collection. It features some interesting examples which are offered without reserve, so this collection is not to be missed. It is such a privilege to be offering the private collection again after selling Part II and our sister company, Silverstone Auctions, selling Part I last year”.

Offered without a reserve is this striking Sapphire Blue 1994 Daimler Majestic (XJ40). This very rare example is just one of 121 that were stretched by Project Aerospace in Coventry and then fitted out by Jaguar SVO. The car has a raised roof with a beautiful limousine-style interior in Ivory with picnic tables and individual rear seats. With a lovely history and 39,025 miles (when tested in 2018) Classic Car Auctions are proud to be offering this in their collection.

The last of four cars to be previewed from this private collection is this 1993 Jaguar XJS 5.3 Auto Convertible. The car is accompanied by an original handbook pack, stamped service book and a history file. Presented in a stunning Westminster blue, the car was last serviced in July 2004 and is showing 34,708 miles after being supplied new by St Helier Garages.
