Daimler 4 1/2 Litre 1936 to 1940 Straight Eight 4624cc not 4500. The registration number may be the one on the car now, but it is certainly not original. -- Last edit: 2008-09-18 18:38:56 |

CNX 667 Another 1938 4 1/2 litre straight eight with a dubious claim to movie prominence was the one used in 'Lady L' starring Sophia Loren David Niven and Paul Newman in 1965 and filmed at Castle Howard ,N.Yorks . Reg No CNX 667 .Buff log book indicates ownership by the film company Metro Goldwyn Mayer The car was mothballed after the film and finally came to light in a very parlous state in a fabrication company behind the Railway Museum in York in the late nineties. The coachwork being beyond repair the car underwent a 7 year rebuild using all original components after the chassis had been shortened from 134 inches to 118 inches.

I have sat in this one- very nice cream leather interior- all be it a bit too 'perfect' for my taste. It was for sale at the time. Another I have photographed is beautiful, but unfortunately painted in wedding- duty white--and fitted with a modern Jaguar engine! |

This vehicle belongs to a friend on mine and resides in Somerset now, I have taken her to the Classics at the Castle show (Sherborne) the last 2 years and shown her on the Daimler/Lanchester stand. She was built for the Royal family and became the transport of King Edward after his abdication and exile to France, remaining there for some years. Some years after the war she ended up in the USA having been bought by an American airman, back to where she belongs now. She drives really nicely, keeps you wide awake because of her size and steering. |
