Reg No. OVC 444
Reg No. OVC 444

Note: This is a sub-section of Daimler

This 1953 Daimler, which was originally displayed as a Lanchester, was then coverted and re-registered as a Daimler. It was then used by the general manager of Daimler for his own personal transport.

The Dauphin was built on a conquest-Leda chassis with an uprated Conquest engine giving 94 bhp. It has the strict Conquest style 5 instrument dashboard layout with a single large central speedometer set within Hooper dashboards of the period.

OVC 444 was sold at auction a few years ago and remains within the Daimler Lanchester Owners Club.
