Manufacturer Daimler Model Not Available Colour Black Vehicle Type Not Available Engine Size 3555cc BHP Not Available Vehicle Age 18 years 4 months Registered Date 20 September 2007 Year 2001 Still taxed and MOT'd until next year too. Could this be our hearse ?
Sandie ◊ 2019-05-19 23:38	I think so, it would be one of these: /vehicles_make-Daimler_model-XJ8000.html Engine size doesn't really fit though, XJ of this era were 3.2 or 4.0.
dsl ◊ 2019-05-19 23:57	I've found for B10 JHF, - 1968-1992, DAIMLER, 4.2 LIMOUSINE AUTO, 4235cc, 4 Door, PETROL, Automatic (AA insurance) - Jaguar XJ8 V8 SE Auto, Colour: Black, Year: 2001 (HPi) - Daimler Limousine, black, 06/06/2001 (Auto Trader) So some scrambled info, and funeral plates often float between cars. Best guess - B10 JHF used to be on a Daimler DS420, then switched to a 2001 Jaguar XJ8 Hearse Eagle [X308] as pictured (probably in Sept 2007), but plate info was not properly cleaned for the re-reg
