The most recent vintage wedding car to be added to the Ivory Cars fleet is Daisy; a 1928 Daimler Hooper Tourer and the only one of its kind on the road in the UK.
Ivory Cars acquired Daisy in 2004 after she had been off the road for 30 years. James Leadley and a team of specialist craftsmen then spent the next year lovingly restoring her before she was brought into service once more in 2005.
During the restoration period the team undertook extensive research to source and replicate design features and fittings that reflected the spirit and finesse of the 1920’s.
Daisy’s cocktail cabinets were copied from a Rolls-Royce Phantom built for his Highness the Khumar of Viziangaram during the same decade. The car’s solid walnut battery box was built using original methods and houses a fully-operational fridge storing chilled Champagne for the bride and groom.
On her exterior, Daisy has been finished in a classic ivory colour with black wings. All bright work has been professionally polished and correctly nickel-plated. A fold-down mohair roof provides shelter from wind or rain and can be folded back to add an extra touch of glamour to summer weddings.
Early Daimlers were always considered the most desirable and exclusive of cars. They were the preferred vehicle of the British aristocracy and the Royal Family for much of the 20th Century. Ivory Cars has spared no expense in faithfully recreating one of the country’s most classic and sought-after wedding vehicles.
We strongly recommend that you organise an appointment to view Daisy privately at our Nottingham showroom. Please call James Leadley on 0115 8712972 to arrange a convenient time.
