Extensively restored by its previous keeper of thirty-three years, the Daimler has been treated to a new ash frame, respray, rewiring and much re-chroming not to mention the installation of a new electric fuel pump and stainless-steel exhaust. Further benefiting from attention to its carburettor, steering box, dynamo, starter motor, suspension and brakes, the EL24 sports Black leather up front and a Grey cloth re-trimmed rear upholstery which also boasts a sliding division and occasional seats.

The 3. 3 litre six cylinder engine runs beautifully & is very quiet devloping some 75 BHP at a low 3600RPM; enough to propel the car at 70MPH motorway speeds. The Wilson pre-selector transmission is smooth & very easy to use. Attention has also been given to electrical equipment, interior trim, bodywork and paintwork. EWK 959 is accompanied by details of the aforementioned restoration and a collection of old MOTs etc.

The car starts readily from cold even when not having been run for some considerable time & is uncannily smooth in operation. Viewings are in North London not far off the M25 Motorway.
