Daimler SP250
これは結構珍しかった。
1950年代、英国ディムラー社が初めて手がけたスポーツカー。
デザインと設計は、BSAやTriumphで活躍したエンジニアでデザイナーのエドワードターナー。
英国王室の御料車は、ロールスロイスが登場するまでディムラーの車が使われていました。
最高速度200kmを叩き出す2.5リッターV8OHVエンジン、ラダーフレームにFRPボディのコンバーチブルスタイル。
なんとなく魚のような特異なデザインのため、当時は「世界一醜いスポーツカー」と呼ばれながらも結構量産されましたが、1964年に惜しまれながら生産は終了しました。
Daimler SP250 (1959–1964). 2.654 units were produced. #DaimlerSP250 #Daimler #SP250 #classicdaimler #daimlerclassic #vintagedaimler #britishcar #britishcars #carspotting #carspotter #classiccarspotting #oldtimer #classiccars #classiccar #oldcar #vintagecar #CarPhotography #petrolicious #classiccaroftheday #classicsdaily #teilixdaimler #classiccarsdaily #automotivephotography #carworld #cargram #redcar (hier: Ahrensburg, Germany) https://www.instagram.com/p/CfJrNg0oQ_k/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Clearly the seller loves it so much that he owns three of them. The first one is a 1961 BRG car which has been converted into a race car but the seller says that it an be easily converted back to a street car. It has a heavy duty roll bar, fuel cell, TR-6 steering rack and pinion bolt in tube shocks, electric fan, Panasport Wheels, and accusump. The engine is currently in a shop and he asks $15,000 for this car.
The second one is a 1962 B Spec SP250 with an older restoration. Ivory exterior and a brown interior. It has 86,000 miles on the clock and comes with the soft top and the hard top that has the original heated glass in it. Dayton wire wheels with Michelin Red Line tires installed. Car is complete and runs smooth. He asks $25,000 for it.
