LIVE AUCTION 1970 Daimler Limousine For Sale by Auction
Chassis no: 4M1629
Engine no: 7M 17008
The Daimler Company was a British business formed in 1896 as an agency for Germany’s Gottlieb Daimler’s motorboat engines. The company bought the rights to the use of the Daimler name and after a re-organisation in 1904, was purchased by the Birmingham Small Arms Company (BSA) in 1910. Prior to this, in 1902, it was awarded a Royal Warrant to provide cars to the British Monarch, a privilege it lost to Rolls-Royce in the 1950s.
In 1960, BSA sold Daimler to Jaguar Cars Limited which then merged it in 1966 into the British Motor Corporation thence British Leyland in 1968. In this guise, Daimler became an upscale trim level for Jaguar apart from the DS420 limousine which had no Jaguar equivalent despite being fully Jaguar-based! When Jaguar Cars were spun off from British Leyland in 1984, they retained the Daimler company and brand.
DML 420 as represented here was believed to be an Australian-delivered vehicle, subsequently being registered in New Zealand in February 1995. Used by a number of firms for weddings and similar functions, it was bought by First-Class Classics on 31 May 2006 who became its seventh owner. Mileage of 99, 568 miles is noted. An electrically operated glass division between driver and passenger is in place. The paintwork, wood, and rubber display a patina of age which detracts little though from the classical nature of this vehicle. Number plate DML 420 included.
Vehicle will be sold registered and with a current WOF.
