Daimler Straight Eight Limousine

About this vehicle:

This pristine condition Limousine in the popular wedding colours of Ebony and Ivory has been completely restored. Adding to its charm it has large twin chrome headlamps either side of the traditional Daimler fluted radiator, wire spoke wheels and twin running boards for easy entry and exit. Inside the fully refurbished cabin there are privacy window blinds and there is ample legroom when two are travelling however being a Limousine there is the option of being able to use the drop down occasional seats to provide a car capable of carrying up to six passengers in the main cabin and an additional passenger in the front compartment.

 

The Daimler Limousine was the model used by King Edward VIII, Duke of Windsor and Wallis Simpson as their personal transport during the Kings exile in France and the type also used by TV detective Hercule Poirot in the Agatha Christie television series ‘Poirot’. With such pedigree why not experience the nostalgia of 1930’s era for yourself and travel in this vintage wedding car for your Yorkshire wedding.

Five stars isn't enough! Every bit of our interaction with Laleen from our first contact to wrapping up on our wedding day was so easy and effortless. Laleen arrived early, removing any stress or anxiety about hitting traffic or being late. He is such a special person and truly went the extra mile to create some magic moments for us that we will cherish forever! The car is every bit as magnificent as you'd expect! Can't recommend Laleen enough - just great!

An amazing day. This was made all the better by the car and more importantly our driver Jerry. He was great. Supportive, reassuring, flexible, accommodating and with a great sense of humour. Thank you Jerry. There was nothing that could have been done to improve our experience. Thank you too Terry.

They are perfect! Arrived on time, the bus was in great condition, they helped us on and sorted us all out, allowed us to have canned cocktails on the bus and had bin bags to help clear away the rubbish, great driving and great pictures. The decor and signs were fantasic. The driver (sorry i cant remember the name) and Jane were so friendly and welcoming.
