dsl ◊ 2013-07-02 13:36	DVLA details for WWP 38 are: Date of Liability 01 08 2013 Date of First Registration 21 04 1959 Year of Manufacture 1959 Cylinder Capacity (cc) 3519cc ( not 3995cc??) CO2 Emissions Not Available Fuel Type PETROL Export Marker N Vehicle Status Licence Due to Expire Vehicle Colour CREAM Vehicle Type Approval Not Available 1959 date would give either Princess 4-Litre Limousine base or A135 Princess MkIV [DS7], but split screen, wipers and shape look very Princess 4-Litre Limo.

dsl ◊ 2013-07-02 15:05	57 date is better for Austin 4-Litre before brand name changes to Princess and then Vanden Plas. That link may also explain the engine size if 3519cc matches a Perkins diesel 4 cylinder.
