The metallic red imposter? That's my Dad's current daily driver - he's
given up on new cars and returned to the great days of motoring.
I gave it a wash and detail which probably added a good grand to the
value ... it was dirty, but very sound (full Jaguar service history,
no rust, just ratty wheels which we think look kind of cool on such a
shiny car) and a bargain at 1500 quid. It has the quite rare full
electronic dash - only fitted for a couple of years, IIRC and the
Daimler badge just gives it the edge, IMO.
... or am I miles off and you've taken a fancy to my neighbour's
Yaris :)
