Distant but..... Silver Wraith with Hooper “New Look” (“Empress” when on a Daimler) coachwork to design #8500, possibly. I do have to caveat this by saying that detail visibility is very poor, and I am not fully confident in the identification. -- Last edit: 2021-01-07 14:00:06 |

Since 2013, I have learned the error of my ways, (bought an extremely expensive book, signed by the Author etc.) which informs that Empress is applicable only to Daimlers and that when the design is erected on a Royce chassis it is a “New Look”. -- Last edit: 2021-07-28 21:30:47 |

^ Noted. My RR/Bentley book also avoids calling them Empress, with similar "New Look" instead. If we go for a name change, there's all these RRs to consider, plus a few Bentleys. Update - all changed to Hooper Empress Line. -- Last edit: 2021-08-25 12:56:54 |
