Again the most interesting car of the year
From now onwards the Daimler Fifteen' takes the road with a newly designed, more powerful engine.
The difference of driving a Daimler
The Daimler Fifteen' has already earned the reputation of being a joy to handle-a car that brought new interest and fresh pleasure to driving. There is greater pleasure still to be had in hand- ling its successor. The comfort, silence, roadholding, steering and cornering for which the Daimler 'Fifteen' is famous are enjoyed to the full in a far more spirited car. The new Daimler 24 litre is as silent, as tract- able as its forerunner-but faster off the mark.As well-mannered and easily controlled -but, through the whole of its very wide speed range, more generously responsive to the throttle.
