Year not stated, but early 50s would fit the episode's chronology. I think it's a landaulette with roof open, and there's another big Daimler behind (possibly with G0 plate for Glasgow Provost). And a rear view of something else in the convoy - maybe an Oxford [MO] which would fit early 50s event. |

Agree both suggestions, but waiting for Daimler expert to confirm. Footage here seems to match the archive clip for a big city turn-out in George Square, in front of the City Chambers. |
