Re: [Chrysler300] NEW 300C from Chrysler!

["John Skeggs" <johnskeggs@xxxx>]

I am an ex-brit, so can give a quick rundown on Brit Daimler.
When I lived in the UK, Daimler was part of a major British company
called Birmingham Small Arms. It had a very strange product mix. It
made bikes and motor bikes, under the BSA emblem. It made Daimler
cars, which with the exception of the sporty 250 someone mentioned
were stately limos, almost up to the level of Rolls Royce. They were
favourites of dukes and earls and various british royals. Their
biggest division however was as an armaments manufactuer. I fired some of
their firearms long ago, and the company supplied guns and ammo to
many armies of the world.
The company sold off the car division to Jaguar, some time in the
late 50s/early 60s. From then on Daimlers were mostly rebadged Jags.
There never was any connexion with Daimler-Benz of Germany.

for the Hemi C convert concept from a couple years ago. Now, that's my idea
of a new letter car. NO FOUR DOORS, unless they want to bring back the
'non-letter' 300 designation (as I believe they should have with the
original M).
