Description
Probablement l'une des cinq seules survivantes, cette rare Daimler 4 Litre à carrosserie Vanden Plas fut d'abord immatriculée en juillet 1939 par le London County Council, à l'usage du Lord maire de Londres.
Les fiches du Jaguar Daimler Vehicle Information font état de la livraison en châssis nu à l'époque, livré en octobre 1939 et peint en kaki, une couleur probablement dictée par l'approche des hostilités.
La Daimler a connu seulement quatre propriétaires au cours des dernières 46 années, dont un collectionneur bien connu de la marque.
Repeinte après mise à nu de la carrosserie, il y a quatre ans, la carrosserie est en aluminium avec les ailes avant en acier et est réputée avoir des lignes d'ouvertures et une structure en bois parfaites, et les chromes sont dit-on excellents.
La garniture de toit joliment patiné, le cuir et les boiseries sont dans leur état d'origine, seuls les tapis de sol ont été remplacés.
On nous informe que tous les compteurs et les instruments fonctionnent...
