1929 DAIMLER 20/70 TYPE M SALOONRegistration: EC8950Chassis No: 31186Engine No: 53847Odometer: 54412One of the founding firms of the British motor industry, Daimler was part of the expanding BSA group by 1911. By this time the adoption of the refined 'Silent Knight' sleeve-valve engine had done much to turn around the company's fortunes and establish Daimler as a marque committed to engineering excellence, a policy which continued in the 1920s with the introduction of the 'Double-Six' - Britain's first V12. Its traditional characteristics had long endeared the marque to the nobility and indeed, in pre-war years, the company's products were preferred by the British Royal Family to those of rival Rolls-Royce. Daimler introduced a new range of long-stroke, sleeve-valve sixes for 1926, their combination of steel sleeves and light-alloy pistons making for appreciably livelier performance. Offered in a variety of wheelbase lengths, the 16/55hp, 20/70hp and 25/85hp chassis began to attract an increasing proportion of owner-driver coachwork. The 16/55 and 20/70 lasted in production until 1930 and the 25/85 for a further year. Precise production figures are not known. This lovely 1929 Daimler 20/70 Type M saloon was purchased by the late Mr. Harry Clark in 1978 from Mr. William Cameron Bell of Penrith, Cumbria. Little is known of the early history of this car but, in 2011, Mr. Clark had the car taken to local specialist The Classic Car Workshop Ltd where, over the next three years, a cosmetics restoration and work to the engine and electrics were carried out. This included stripping and repainting the bodywork in black and royal blue, sandblasting and repainting the wheel and fitting new tyres, fitting a new fabric roof, reconditioning the radiator and overhauling the nickel plated Rotax lights to the outside of the car. Under the bonnet, the engine was checked through with the heads removed and refitted to stop water leaks. Wiring was replaced to get the lights working and the magneto and dynamo were sent away for specialist overhaul before being refitted to the car. In 2014 it was ready, and the engine was reported to be running well. It is unknown the last time the car was started but we can state that the engine is free and turns easily. The dark blue leather interior is in good condition throughout with a number of the original interior features in good working order; these include a rear blind to the rear window, cloth grab handles to the rear compartment and a net storage above the front seats. This Daimler is supplied with a recent history file containing invoices and photographs of the restoration. It also comes with a blue V5C registration document, a post-1949 buff log book, an original handbook and oil chart. In the pre-war years, the Daimler was the preferred means of transport for the Royal family and this vehicle lives up to their high expectations of style and comfort and would grace any small or large collection as being a good example of the Daimler 20/70 Type M. Please note it is unknown the last time the engine was run since 2014 and we would recommend that the mechanics are fully checked through before use.Interested parties should satisfy themselves as to the description and condition prior to the sale. Buyers are advised to inspect the car in person or use a professional to carry out this service.

Williams, of Duke-street, Newlyn, has been informed that His Majesty, the King, will personally present to him a bronze medal for the part which he took in rescuing the crew of a steamer which was on the point of sinking during a fierce gale in the Atlantic Ocean on the 31st March.The story of the rescue is one of the most thrilling romances of the sea which have been disclosed for a long time, and is on a par with the rescue which was effected by members of the crew of the liner President Roosevelt which created such a sensation some time ago.When interviewed at his home on Wednesday morning by our representative, Mr Williams readily showed him the two letters he had received from the Board of Trade, and then proceeded to tell the story of the rescue. "We were the first to approach the distressed vessel, and sighted her between 4 and 5 o'clock. The Mauretania was then about 180 miles off. As we drew near, we discovered that her boats were smashed, her engine-room skylight and superstructure were smashed, and the engine-room and stokehold were flooded; her valves were choked, she had a heavy list to starboard, and was then in a sinking condition.A letter from the Board of Trade read:-"Dear Sir,-I am directed by the Board of Trade to inform you that His Majesty the King has been pleased, upon the recommendation of the President, to award you the bronze medal for gallantry in saving life at sea, in recognition of your services in connection with the rescue of the shipwrecked crew of the s.s.
