The Daimler DB18 started out in 1939 as a six-cylinder chassis
on which Daimler. and various other British coach builders. offered
a range of bodies. The car used a 2. 22cc. six-cylinder engine fed
by a single SU carburettor. Throughout its life. 70bhp was
claimed; although later. a change in the gearing to coincide with
the introduction of the Consort in 1950 and marking an increase in
maximum speed from 76mph to 82mph which. by the standards of the
time. was brisker than it looked. The independent front suspension
used coil springs while the back axle was suspended using a
traditional semi-elliptical set-up.

This Daimler DB18 has been standing for some time and will
require a little re-commissioning. We are advised however that she
starts and runs well and the pre-selector gearbox operates as it
should. From a bodywork aspect. she appears pretty solid and the
interior trim has a lovely patina. Offered without reserve. this
DB18 is an opportunity to purchase an entry level classic car that
perhaps is best described as a rolling restoration
project.
