1996 Daimler Double Six 6.0-Litre V12 Saloon – Reportedly Formerly Used by the Sultan of Brunei. An intriguing and exceptionally low-mileage 1996 Daimler Double Six 6.0-litre V12 saloon, reportedly one of a small number of vehicles supplied for official use by the Sultan of Brunei.
According to the accompanying provenance information, the vehicle was delivered from Coventry to Brunei in 1996, where it is understood to have served as part of the Sultan's state fleet before returning to the United Kingdom.
The accompanying V5C confirms that the vehicle was manufactured in 1996, previously registered or used overseas, and first registered in the United Kingdom on 16 August 2002, bearing registration N299 ENB.
Having reportedly seen only occasional official use, the Daimler has covered remarkably few miles, with an invoice from Stoneman Vehicle Repairs dated 14 July 2026 recording just 10,027 miles.
The accompanying documentation also includes DVLA correspondence confirming a Statutory Off Road Notification effective from July 2008, supporting the vehicle's history of extended periods off the road.
Following prolonged dry storage, the Daimler has benefited from recommissioning and more recent mechanical attention. An invoice dated July 2026 details work to the front braking system and suspension, including replacement brake calipers, front shock absorber top bushes and associated repairs, totalling £907.95.
Finished in black and presented in beautiful condition both inside and out, this imposing luxury saloon is powered by Daimler's celebrated 5,993cc V12 engine, offering the refinement, craftsmanship and effortless performance synonymous with the marque's flagship models.
The vehicle is currently declared SORN and is reported to have an MOT valid until 7 June 2027. An appealing opportunity for the marque enthusiast or collector, combining exceptionally low recorded mileage, attractive presentation, accompanying historical documentation and a fascinating reported association with the Sultan of Brunei.
Please note: There is a small dent to the nearside front (N/S/F) of the vehicle. The paintwork does not appear to be cracked or damaged in this area.
The vehicle is available for viewing by prior arrangement. To arrange an appointment, please contact sfulford@hansonsauctioneers.co.uk.
