Introduced in 1937, the Daimler EL24 featured a 10ft 4in wheelbase and more interior space than many rivals thanks to the forward positioning of its 3.3-litre straight-six OHV engine. Based around a cruciform-braced, box-section chassis equipped with all-round leaf-sprung suspension, Luvax shock absorbers and Dewandre servo-assisted Girling drum brakes, the newcomer was available with a choice of open and closed coachwork some of which was crafted in-house. The four-speed pre-selector gearbox was allied to the marque’s fluid flywheel and employed a direct drive top gear. Circa 710 examples were made up until 1940.

Extensively restored by its previous keeper of thirty-three years, the Daimler is understood to have been treated to a new ash frame, respray, rewiring and much re-chroming not to mention the installation of a new electric fuel pump and stainless-steel exhaust. Further benefiting from attention to its carburettor, steering box, dynamo, starter motor, suspension and brakes, the EL24 sports Black leather up front and a Grey cloth re-trimmed rear upholstery which also boasts a sliding glass division and occasional seats. Currently graded by the vendor as ‘very good’ with regards to its engine, pre-selector transmission, electrical equipment, interior trim, bodywork and paintwork, ‘EWK 959’ is accompanied by details of the aforementioned restoration and a collection of old MOTs etc.
