Summary

[edit]
Description

The Daimler Regency was a luxury car built from 1951-58. Only 51 of the first examples were built (DF300), due to lack of demand. It had a 90hp 2852cc engine. The standard car was the Barker saloon, joined in 1952 by an Empress II saloon, limousine and convertible, all with razor-edge styling by Hooper (DF302). Almost three years later in 1954, a lengthened more powerful Regency Mark II (DF304) was announced, it got a new more flowing body was slightly longer with a much longer boot and mudguards and was lower-set. It could now be purchased with a 3½-litre or 4½-litre engine. Again there was a Hooper version, the Empress IIa and III but now also the Sportsman four-light saloon with coachwork by Mulliners.

After a production run of 345 cars, it was replaced by the very much faster, up-rated One-O-Four (DF310), announced in October 1955.
