Hi all,

Ever since mooching around a pair of Daimler Majestics, parked and semi-abandoned outside an old mill 20+ years ago, I've liked these - especially in 4.5 V8 "Major" form.

The thought of surprising moderns with one of these does appeal, surrounded by an interior that's second to none really. This one's a real belter.

Any Majestic owners in the house?

RJ

That is a superb interior.

Yes, surprisingly quick for such a big car.

There are (were?) a couple (three I think) white Majors for sale on Ebay, all being sold by the same owner who ran a brides-car company. One is the Limousine version.

Like you I love the wolf in sheeps clothing thing. Plus the fact it really is a fifties car made in the sixties, with all the pros and cons of that.

A member of the Jensen Owners Club has one, which has languished for years in a field. Amazingly it was still in fairly good order, not rotten as a pear.
