LONDON.- The next H&H Classics Auction Online on July 3rd will feature a car owned by Sir Bernard Docker Chairman of Daimler and BSA and used by Queen Elizabeth, the Queen Mother.

The new owner will thus acquire a fascinating classic which is part of Britain’s automotive and royal history,

This fabulous 1947 Daimler DE27 was built by Hoopers in 1947 to an exacting specification which is all detailed and on file. It appears to be complete and carries a flag standard mounting above the windscreen.

It was completed for Daimler Group Chairman Sir Bernard Docker and was used by him in France. Returning to the UK, it was handed over to Rossleigh Ltd of Edinburgh who held the Royal Warrant. It was used by the Queen Mother when visiting Edinburgh in 1950 with the then, Princess Elizabeth, latterly Queen Elizabeth 2. It was used on many other state functions, carrying the registration number SF1 (not for sale with the car). The car comes with various letters on file from the Daimler and Lanchester owners club.
