Thinking 36 Standard Flying 'Heavy' 12 or 37+ Standard Flying 14 or bigger, but doesn't have the plate/taillight recess so maybe something else? |

That’s a Daimler 15. |

Indeed - what year? 1938? -- Last edit: 2021-03-19 18:26:57 |

As per: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daimler_New_Fifteen |

Why is there a dustbin lid sitting in the road? |

Somebody nicked the dustbin? One of the boys used it as a shield? -- Last edit: 2021-03-20 22:22:53 |

The naughty lads in the foreground tied it to the Beardmore. |

I don't think it is a Daimler of any sort. The split rear windows look wrong to me, there is no "D" on the rear bumper, and surely if it was a "New" Daimler Fifteen, the petrol filler would be on the rear wing? |

I extrapolated from this Link to "upload.wikimedia.org" The linked image looks very Daimler to me, but I see your point about the windows. Bumpers on a 16 year old car especially one that lived through WW2 might be a bit dubious as an identifier, but the windows are most unlikely to have changed. -- Last edit: 2021-08-08 22:51:01 |

But not as dubious as assuming that the car is 16 years old and has lived through WW2, or stating "That's a Daimler 15"? |

So back to unknown?? Still something British?? Or maybe US?? |

You stick to your view, I’ll stick to mine. I have not made any assumptions, merely suggestions. The car looks pre-war. -- Last edit: 2021-08-15 15:05:41 |
