Daimler Sovereign was a name applied by British manufacturer Jaguar Cars to a sequence
of luxury automobiles built by it but carrying the Daimler badge between 1966 and 1983.
The Daimler Sovereigns were based on contemporary Jaguar bodyshells, chassis and engines
in an early example of badge engineering. Jaguar Cars took over the Daimler company in
1960 and the 1966 Sovereign was the second Daimler to be based on a Jaguar model.
The first Sovereign was a badge-engineered version of the Jaguar 420 saloon, which was
itself based on the Jaguar S-Type. The 420 and Sovereign differed from the S-Type in
having a revised four-headlight nose reminiscent of the Jaguar Mark X and a 4.2 litre
version of the straight-six XK engine. The main external difference between the 420
and Sovereign was the traditional Daimler fluted radiator grille. More detail of the
development of the 420/Sovereign and the ways in which the Sovereign differed from
its Jaguar stablemate can be found in the article on the Jaguar 420 and Daimler
Sovereign.
