Current V5 present. Paperwork includes a buff log book, previous V5s, some VIN plates, old tax discs, printed photographs of the vehicle, MOT certificates, V11 tax reminders, previous insurance documents, and some invoices.

The vendor has provided the following:

Alexander Robb acquired 2 vehicles in 1999, RLL 377E (Jaguar Daimler MK2.5) and NJV 566G (Jaguar MK2.5) as part of a collection of parts and engines purchased as the closure of Unity Garage, and began work to restore. The car was taken to a garage/workshop owned in Crosshills to rebuild. We still have a lot of the auto parts and engines around, but the Daimler is the only car restored.

We have all the invoices for the items bought, including the chroming upholstery trims, painting, and engine parts. Mr Alexander Robb and close friend Michael Illingworth took approximately 2 years to put the car together, and the car was first used and had to be ready for a best friend's wedding in June 2001, which is when the car had its first new outing. The car was then used for many car events and weddings, and celebrations over the years to follow Bradford to Morcombe, Newby Hall, 50 Years of Jaguar Isle of Man 2002, Burley Wharfedale, and Otley Extravaganza, to name a few.

The vehicle was insured by Footman James, so there are a number of vehicle condition forms and photos of the car, plus a number taken over the years, plus we are looking for any that were taken in the restoration process.

The car has been to our family garage to get it started and running again, and we have been starting ever since its return. It was stored in a triple garage workshop but was up an unadopted lane, so we had restricted access to getting it out and neither of us wanted to drive it down, so we arranged for the garage to retrieve who was also a close friend of the owner of Unity Garage, the original owner.
