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.
