Daimler History
What is your favourite car of all time?
The oldest British manufacturer, founded in 1893, early Daimlers were imported from Germany, and during the Edwardian era the cars became luxury carriages. In 1910 the firm was acquired by BSA, and after WWI the Daimler was adopted as the car for the Royal Family. Taken over by Jaguar Cars in 1960, the last real Daimlers were the SP250 sports car and Majestic series, which remained in production until 1968. Since then all Daimlers have been badge engineered versions of their Jaguar counterparts, with Jaguar marketing the Daimler nameplate as an upmarket version of their luxury cars.
