Daimler Motor Company From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation , search This article is about the British automobile manufacturer. See Daimler for other uses derived from the German engineer and inventor Gottlieb Daimler . For the two direct descendants of Daimler's original company, see Daimler-Benz and its successor Daimler AG . Daimler Motor Company Industry Automotive Fate Merged Successor Jaguar Cars Founded 1896 Defunct 1960 Headquarters Coventry , West Midlands , United Kingdom Parent Jaguar Cars Subsidiaries Lanchester Motor Company Daimler Marque Owner Tata Motors Country United Kingdom Markets Automotive Previous Owners 1896 - 1960 Daimler Motor Company 1960 - 1966 Jaguar Cars 1966 - 1968 British Motor Holdings 1968 - 1984 British Leyland Motor Corporation 1984 - 1989 Jaguar Cars 1989 - 2008 Ford Motor Company The Daimler Motor Company was a British motor vehicle manufacturing company, founded in 1896, and based in Coventry . The company became a subsidiary of BSA in 1910, and was acquired by Jaguar Cars in 1960. Ownership of the Daimler marque stayed with Jaguar Cars through subsequent mergers with British Motor Holdings and British Leyland , remaining with Jaguar when the company regained its independence in 1984. In 1989 the Daimler badge transferred to the ownership of the Ford Motor Company when Jaguar Cars became a subsidiary of the American giant, and was subsequently incorporated into Ford's Premier Automotive Group . In March 2008 the Daimler brand was included in Ford's sale of Jaguar Land Rover to Tata Motors of India. As of 2006, the use of the Daimler brand was limited to one model, the Daimler Super Eight . Contents 1 Origins of the name, Coventry Stuttgart Vienna 2 History of the British company 2.1 Company origin 2.2 BSA take-over 2.3 Jaguar and British Leyland 2.4 Daimler buses 2.5 Jaguar (Under Ford ownership) 2.6 Revival 3 Daimler in the media 4 See also 5 References 6 External links [ edit ] Origins of the name, Coventry Stuttgart Vienna Confusingly, the name Daimler is used by two completely separate groups of car manufacturers . The history of both companies can be traced back to the German engineer Gottlieb Daimler who built the first four-wheeled car in 1889. This was the origin of the Daimler Motoren Gesellschaft , which is translated as Daimler Motor Company (aka, Daimler Germany), which has manufactured vehicles since the 1890s. Gottlieb Daimler died in 1900, having himself sold licences to use his own name, Daimler, in a number of countries. The licence granted in 1891 to the British F R Simms & Co included the right to use the Daimler name in Great Britain and in 1896 the British Daimler Motor Company was founded without any tie to Daimler Motoren Gesellschaft to make a quite separate vehicle. The aristocrat car dealer Emil Jellinek had legal problems selling German Daimlers in France, Panhard-Levassor used the name and German Daimler engines, and put it to Daimler Germany that he would place a large order if they would make a car for him that would bear his daughter's name Mercedes . Daimler Germany now recognized they shared their right to the name Daimler with many others and to avoid further legal action the name Mercedes was adopted in 1902 for all the cars built by Daimler Motoren Gesellschaft itself. The name Daimler was last used for a German-built car in 1908. The Coventry company, never linked to the Stuttgart company having received its right to its name from Gottlieb Daimler, kept the Daimler brand for the vehicles it built. [ 1 ] Ford, by their 1989 purchase of Jaguar, assumed and retained the sole rights to sell automobiles under the Daimler name. In March 2008 Ford sold off the remaining British portions of its Premier Automotive Group (PAG) (consisting of both Land Rover and Jaguar holdings, which included Daimler) to Tata Motors of India . [ 2 ] The Austro-Daimler concern has survived as Steyr-Daimler-Puch , despite being absorbed by General Dynamics in 2003. [ edit ] History of the British company 1898 Daimler car in Bristol Industrial Museum , England Daimler TB 6-21 Drophead Coupé 1923 Daimler Double-Six Corsica Coupé 1931 [ edit ] Company origin The UK patent rights to the Gottlieb Daimler's engine were purchased in 1891 [ 3 ] by Frederick Simms , who produced them at his company F R Simms & Co. In 1893 this was renamed the "Daimler Motor Syndicate Ltd" and supplied engines to boat builders. In 1895 Harry Lawson (a yet to be convicted fraudster) bought the company for £35,000 [ 3 ] and changed its name again to the British Motor Syndicate, a company mainly trading in patents. In order to capitalise on some of the patents he had bought, in 1896 he founded the "Daimler Motor Company" based in a disused cotton mill he bought in Foleshill, Coventry. Here, from 1897, he built Léon Bollée cars under licence as well as MC and Daimler cars. The first Daimler left the works in January 1897, fitted with a Panhard engine, followed in March by Daimler engined cars. Lawson claimed to have made 20 cars by July 1897 making the Daimler Britain's first motor car to go into serial production, an honour that is also credited to Humber motors who displayed its production models at the Stanley Cycle Show in London in 1896. The Daimlers had a twin cylinder, 1526 cc engine, mounted at the front of the car, four speed gearbox and chain drive to the rear wheels. Known as Britain's oldest marque, Daimler became the official transportation of Royalty in 1898, after the Prince of Wales, later Edward VII , was given a ride on a Daimler by John Douglas-Scott-Montagu, 2nd Baron Montagu of Beaulieu . The Royal House of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha had, like Daimler, also obtained their name from Germany , but changed this to Windsor during World War I . Scott-Montagu, as a Member of Parliament, also drove a Daimler into the yard of the British Parliament , the first motorized vehicle to be driven there. Every British monarch from Edward VII to the current Queen have been driven in Daimler limousines although, in 1950, after a transmission failure on the King's car, Rolls-Royce was commissioned as the Royal Primary Carriage, Daimler being reduced to 'second fiddle'. Since 1907, the fluted radiator grille has been the Daimler marque's distinguishing feature. The company acquired a Knight Engine licence in 1908 to build sleeve valve engines for its automobiles. The German Daimler company also built Knight engines under license. [ edit ] BSA take-over From 1910 it was part of Birmingham Small Arms Company (BSA) group of companies, producing military vehicles as well as cars. In addition to cars, Daimler produced engines for the very first tanks ever built in 1914 (" Little Willie " and "Big Willie"), a scout army vehicle, engines used in aeroplanes, ambulances, trucks, and double-decker buses. In late 1920s, it, together with Associated Equipment Company , formed the Associated Daimler Company to build commercial vehicles. In 1930 Daimler, through BSA, took over Lanchester Motor Company . Although at first the marques produced separate ranges of cars with the Daimler badge appearing mainly on the larger models, by the mid 1930s the two were increasingly sharing components leading to the 1936 Lanchester 18/Daimler Light 20 differing in little except trim and grille. [ 3 ] The Daimler range was exceptionally complex in the 1930s with cars using a variety of six and eight cylinder engines with capacities from 1805 cc in the short lived 15 of 1934 to the 4624 cc 4.5 litre of 1936. Daimler Dingo scout car c 1944. During World War II , Daimler production was geared to military production. A four wheel drive scout car , the Daimler Dingo , had a 2.5 litre engine, along with a larger armoured car powered by a 4.1 litre engine and armed with a 2pdr. were produced, both with six cylinder power units. [ 4 ] These military vehicles incorporated various innovative features including all-round disc brakes. [ 4 ] Daimler DB18 (1950) Daimler DB18 Empress (1951) Daimler DB18 Drophead Coupé (1952) Daimler model 104 (1955) Daimler SP250 (1960 example) The original Sandy Lane plant, used as a government store, was destroyed by fire during intensive enemy bombing of Coventry, but there were by now 'shadow factories' elsewhere in the city including one located at Brown's Lane, Allesey , now itself destroyed, but which was for several decades the principal Jaguar car plant. [ 4 ] After that war, Daimler produced the Ferret armoured car , a military reconnaissance vehicle based on the innovative 4.1 litre engined armoured car they had developed and built during the war, which has been used by over 36 countries. Daimler was a proponent of the preselector gearbox . This was used in passenger vehicles and military vehicles. Sir Bernard Docker was the Managing Director of BSA from early in WWII, and married Norah Lady Collins in 1949. It was Norah's third marriage, and she had originally been a successful dance hall hostess, already having married well twice, and already wealthy in her own right. Lady Docker took an interest in her husband's companies and became a director of Hooper , the coachbuilders. Lady Docker could see that the Daimler cars, while popular with the royal family, were in danger of becoming an anachronism in the modern world. She took it upon herself to raise the company's profile, but in an extravagant fashion, by encouraging Sir Bernard to produce show cars. The first was the "Golden Daimler", an opulent touring limousine, in 1952, "Blue Clover, a two door sportsmans coupe, in 1953 the "Silver Flash" based on the 3 litre Regency chassis, and in 1954 "Stardust, redolent of the "Gold Car", but based on the DK400 chassis. At the same time Lady Docker earned a reputation for having rather poor social graces when under the influence, and she and Sir Bernard were investigated for failing to correctly declare the amount of money taken out of the country on a visit to a Monte Carlo casino. Norah ran up large bills, and presented them to Daimler as business expenses, but some items were disallowed by the Tax Office drawing further attention. The publicity attached to this and other social episodes told on Sir Bernard's standing, as some already thought the cars far too opulent and perhaps a little vulgar for austere post-war Britain. To compound Sir Bernard's difficulty, the royal family shifted allegiance to Rolls Royce . In 1951 Jack Sangster had sold Ariel and Triumph to BSA, and joined their board. The Docker Daimler era was soon to end. By 1956 Sangster was voted in as the new Chairman, defeating Sir Bernard 6 to 3, and he promptly made Edward Turner head of the automotive division. This then included Ariel, Triumph, and BSA motorcycles, as well as Daimler and Carbodies (London Taxicab manufacturers). Turner then designed the Daimler SP250 and Majestic Major , with a lightweight hemi head Daimler 2.5 & 4.5 Litre V8 Engines . Under Sangster Daimler's vehicles became a little more performance oriented. Daimler struggled after the War, producing too many models with short runs and limited production, and frequently selling too few of each model, while Jaguar seemed to know what the public wanted and expanded rapidly. Daimler produced large and (Lanchester) small luxury cars with a stuffy image and for a time continued to make profits, Jaguar produced lower quality cars for enthusiasts and did not but managed to stay afloat and make cars that sold well. Some of the most significant vehicles produced by Daimler prior to their acquisition by Jaguar in 1960 were: 1896 First Daimler Vehicle 1926-1938 The Double Six 1933-1936 Daimler 15 1936-1953 Straight Eight [ 5 ] (covering a variety of models) 1938-1945 Daimler Dingo — a BSA design 1939-1949 Daimler DB18 1940- ? Daimler Armoured Car 1946-1952 Daimler DE27/DH27 (straight 6) 1946-1953 Daimler DE36 (straight 8) 1952-1971 Ferret Scout Car 1949-1953 Daimler DB18 Consort and DB18 Sports Special 1952-1954 Daimler Regency/Empress II 1953-1956 Daimler Conquest 1954-1957 Daimler Regency II 1954-1957 Daimler Empress IIa and Empress III 1954-1958 Daimler Conquest Century 1954-1960 Daimler Regina/DK400 1958-1962 Daimler Majestic 1959-1968 Daimler Majestic Major 1959-1964 Daimler SP250 (Dart, A-spec.) [ edit ] Jaguar and British Leyland In 1960, the Daimler name was acquired by Jaguar Cars . William Lyons was looking to expand manufacture, and wanted the manufacturing facilities, but then had to decide what to do with the existing Daimler vehicles. The Daimler Majestic Major and the sporty Dart , already in production, were continued for a number of years, using the Daimler V8 engine. In 1961 Daimler introduced the DR450 , a limousine version of its Majestic Major with a longer chassis and bodyshell and higher roofline. It continued in production until the DS420 arrived in 1968, by which time it had sold almost as many as the "Major" saloon. These were the last Daimler-badge cars not designed by Jaguar . It is said that Jaguar put a Daimler 4.5L V8 in a Mark X , and it went better than the Jaguar version. It is also said that when Jaguar ceased production of Daimler designed vehicles, Lyons had all the spares bulldozed into a pit. [ citation needed ] The last car to have a Daimler engine was the V8 250 which was essentially, apart from a fluted grille, badges and drivetrain, a more luxurious Jaguar Mark II. Jaguar merged with the British Motor Corporation , the masters of badge-engineering marques in 1966 to form British Motor Holdings (BMH). Not surprisingly, except for the Daimler DS420 Limousine introduced in 1968 and withdrawn from production in 1992, subsequent vehicles were badge-engineered Jaguars, but given a more luxurious and upmarket finish. For example the Daimler Double-Six was a Jaguar XJ-12 with the Daimler badge and fluted grille and boot handle being the only outward differences from the Jaguar, with more luxurious interior fittings and extra standard equipment marking it out on the inside. Hybrid Daimler V8-250 Small Daimler V8 in a re-badged Jaguar car During that period, Daimler became the second-largest (after Leyland) double-decker bus manufacturer in Britain, with the "Fleetline" model. At the same time, Daimler made trucks and motorhomes. BMH merged with the Leyland Motor Corporation to give the British Leyland Motor Corporation in 1968. Production of Daimler buses in Coventry ceased in 1973 when production of its last bus product (the Daimler Fleetline ) was transferred to Leyland plant in Farington . The Daimler marque stayed within BLMC and its subsequent forms until 1982, at which point Jaguar (and Daimler) was demerged from BL as an independent manufacturer. Significant Daimler models for that period include: 1959-1968 Daimler Majestic Major 1959-1964 Daimler SP250 (B and C spec.) 1961-1967 Daimler DR450 Hemi V8 Limousine 1962-1969 Daimler 250 V8 (Daimler-engined Jaguar Mark II) 1966-1969 Daimler Sovereign (badge-engineered Jaguar 420) 1968-1992 Daimler DS420 Limousine, successor to the DR450 1969-1983 Daimler Sovereign (badge-engineered Jaguar XJ6) (Jaguar) Daimler-badged DS420 Limousine 1972 Daimler Sovereign 4.2 (XJ6 Series 1) 1988 Daimler Double Six [ edit ] Daimler buses A significant element of Daimler production was bus chassis, mostly for double deckers. The first of these was the Fredrick Lanchester designed KPL of 1911, a very advanced integral petrol electric hybrid. It was stopped by a patent infringement action brought by Tilling-Stevens . In 1912 Frank Searle, designer of the AEC B-type bus joined Daimler in 1912 to start its commercial vehicle department. The main difference from AEC was the use of a sleeve-valve engine. Between 1913-16 AEC built some Daimler models under contract and Daimler sold all AEC vehicles which were surplus to LGOC needs. The Searle models were developed after World War I, but from 1926-8 Daimler entered into a joint venture with AEC vehicles being badged as Associated Daimler. In the 1930s the Daimler CO became the main model, there was a similar but heavier CW produced during World War two and in postwar years production worked through the Daimler CV to the long-running Daimler CR Fleetline , built from 1960 to 1980 (CVG5 and CVG6 had been a common type of bus in Hong Kong between 1950 to 1988 and Fleetline had also become a major type of bus in Hong Kong till 1995). Small numbers of single deck vehicles were also built. Many British bus operators bought substantial numbers of the vehicles and there were also a number built for export. The standard London double deck bus bought from 1970 to 1978 was the Daimler Fleetline. Daimler buses were fitted with proprietary diesel engines, the majority by the Gardner company, although there were a few hundred Daimler diesels built in the 1940s & 1950s, and the Leyland 680 was offered as an option on the Fleetline (designated CRL) after the merger with Leyland. The bus chassis were also fitted with bodywork built by various outside contractors, as standard in the British bus industry, so at a casual glance there is no real identifying feature of a Daimler bus apart from the badges (Daimler buses retained the distinctive fluted radiator grille top). The last Daimler Fleetline was built at the traditional Daimler factory in Radford, Coventry, in 1973, after that date the remaining buses were built at the Leyland factory in Lancashire, the final eight of years of Fleetline production being badged as Leyland. The last Fleetline built was bodied by Eastern Coach Works in 1981. [ edit ] Jaguar (Under Ford ownership) Further information: Premier Automotive Group In 1989 the Ford Motor Company took over Jaguar and with it the right to use the Daimler name. In 1992, Daimler stopped production of the DS420 Limousine, the only model that was not just a re-badged Jaguar. In 1996 Jaguar Cars produced a "Daimler Century" model to celebrate 100 years of motoring. The name Daimler continued to be used to determine top-line XJ Jaguars in every country except the USA, where the top XJ is known as the "XJ Vanden Plas" — the company may have feared that the American market would confuse Jaguar Daimler with DaimlerChrysler . In 2002, with the arrival of the new Mark III XJ, the Daimler name (seen on the Mark II XJ as the "Daimler V8") ceased to be used to mark out the top models, with the "Jaguar Super V8" the new flagship model. However, the Daimler marque was brought back with the "Super Eight" model. Significant Daimler Models for that period include: 1996 Daimler Century limited edition 1996 Daimler Corsica concept car 2002 Daimler Super V8 for HM The Queen [ edit ] Revival In July 2005, after a three-year hiatus, a new Daimler, the Super Eight, was presented, with a 4.2 L V8 supercharged engine which produces 291 kW (396 PS; 390 bhp) and a torque rating of 533 N·m (393 lb·ft) at 3500 rpm.
