Also this strange comment on a non-Century page pawncob a écrit No wing mirrors, so it's a Conquest .. so if it has wing mirrors it's apparently a Century (which seems a very odd way of Daimler differentiating the trim levels, but so be it). Apart from the plate info, SOM 789 seems invisible to googling.

Mirrors have nothing to do with whether or not it is a Conquest or Conquest Century - definitely not a feature Daimler ever employed that could be used to differentiate between the two models. The external differences between the two models remained unchanged between 1954 & 1958, with the exception of the position of the jacking points on the Conquest Mk2.
