DVLA entry is a mess, but worth quoting: The vehicle details for AA 16 are: Date of Liability 01 12 2011 Date of First Registration 01 07 1969 Year of Manufacture 1969 Cylinder Capacity (cc) 3050CC CO2 Emissions Not Available Fuel Type Petrol Export Marker Not Applicable Vehicle Status SORN Not Due Vehicle Colour GREEN 3050cc may be the genuine figure - has no match to any 1969 Daimler. I assume the DVLA computer has problems digesting 1899 dates. -- Last edit: 2011-02-24 21:16:10

It was the first car to be driven into the House of Commons Yard, and also the first all British entry in a foreign road race, the Paris-Ostend event in which it finished third in the Tourist Class.
