It had a 9ft 1.5in wheelbase, 4ft 3.5in track, and a 1805cc six cylinder engine (63.5 x 95mm). Weighing a modest 22- 23 hundredweight it could reach 64.5mph and get to 50 in about 23 seconds- quite good figures for the time. £450 made it quite expensive- but all Daimlers then had the easy to use fluid flywheel transmission which was highly valued in the 1930's.
