Oh yeah..... the British Leyland Daimler DS420.
The 'un' Rolls-Royce...
It really ought not to be on this site.
London's elite in the 1970's and 1980's had a Rolls-Royce, a Bentley or (perhaps AND) one of these.
Part of any typical Mayfair London scene. Just like a Routemaster bus.
There was no other competition for A Crewe car back then.
Just this.
Yes, there's one in the background here.
The British Leyland ads were hilarious!
Apparently Hooper lost out on the deal.
Body by 'Van Den Plas...'
Again, I stress the 'un' Rolls-Royce.
But it does fit right in.
All four thousand of them.
