antp ◊ 2008-06-03 09:46	Limousine as model name? Or is the model name to be found?
john from Staffs ◊ 2008-06-03 10:08	vehicle.php?id=173574 Note the straight waistline in the above reference. The car we are looking at in the new unidentified photograph looks more like a Lancaster than a limousine, even allowing for the rather poor image. -- Last edit: 2008-06-03 12:26:50
sixcyl ◊ 2008-06-03 13:13	I agree with John (sorry Chris ) but this one doesn't match with 49 A-S Limousine
john from Staffs ◊ 2008-06-03 15:42	Based upon the thumbnail views showing the radiator to be plated at the top (probably), and the shape of the swage lines that drop down onto the rear mudguard, I would suggest that this car is a Daimler DB18 Consort 1950 to 1953, but the pictures are so shaky that I only offer 75%.

G-MANN ◊ 2008-06-03 15:51	And neither is he
john from Staffs ◊ 2008-06-03 15:59	I wouldn't lose any sleep over it!
Sunbar ◊ 2008-06-03 16:13	john from Staffs, I believe you are right, it is a 1950 Daimler DB18 Consort. I've been trying to match the details with a Armstrong-Siddeley Lancaster but the Daimler is right for all details that can be seen. http://www.motorbase.com/profiles/vehicle/picture.ehtml?i=525;p=1485949339
john from Staffs ◊ 2008-06-03 16:27	Sorry to lead you up the Lancaster blind alley, but tht was based on the six-light bodywork, then the idea about the radiator came up, and I checked against the Consort. I remember Sister Mary Etheldreda telling us in 1953 that Pope Pius XII was infallible, perhaps this modern generation of Popes have lost it a bit.
