«Sir, ich denke, ihr Auto passt nicht auf unsere Parkfelder»
Author: Zoran Mitrović Magazine: Automobil Revue (Switzerland) Date of publication: No. 29, 16. juli 2008 Language: German Zoran Mitrović from Bern in Switzerland describes how he bought a DS420 from Zenith Classics in Manchester, and drove it home. He also submitted a huge amount of photos from the nut and bolt restoration of his DS420. They were divided over three photo galleries: (I) before the restoration, (II) the actual restoration [Warning: 30Mb thumbnail gallery] and (III) the finished result. |
Kill Bill Vol. 03
Author: Zoran Mitrović
Magazine: Jaguar Tribune
Magazine of the Jaguar Drivers' Club, Switzerland
Date of publication: No. 120-1/2011
Language: German
Zoran Mitrović from Bern in Switzerland chose the form of a classic Greek tragedy to describe how the purchase of his DS420 unfolded. The story even mentions the purchase of a first DS420, the restoration of which turned out to be unfeasible. And until the car was in the safe hands of the final restorers, a tragedy it was indeed!
The cast: Zoranus (himself, Switzerland), Billes (initial restorer, failed, from Brighton), Karlus (the seller), Markus (the final restorer, from Singidunum/Belgrade in Serbia).
Mr. Mitrović provided thousands (!) of photos of the restoration of this car, which are shown in three photo galleries on this website.

The British publisher GE Fabbri devoted issue No. 49
of its popular fortnightly "James Bond Car Collection" magazine
to the Daimler DS420 as a James Bond movie car.
The magazine came with a diecast
1:43 scale model
made by Universal Hobbies in China.
The French edition appeared in November 2008,
although the magazine itself has no date.
The German edition was published in November 2009,
and the Dutch version early February 2010.
The
UK edition
of this issue appeared in November 2008,
one or two weeks before the French version.
I have heard of a version in Finnish language, and one for the Brasil market (which I assume will be in Portuguese), but I have not been able to obtain copies of these, nor do I know their publication schedule.
The magazine has 16 pages of which 8 have DS420 coverage, mainly photographic.
Several parts of the text seem to have been taken from an older version
of the Wikipedia entry on the DS420, including several inaccuracies
that were present there (and have been corrected since).
Jaguar press photo DA1321 in full colour is used as the centerfold image.

Die Limousine der Könige
Dr. Christian Vanik from Vienna, Austria, friend and fellow DS420 owner,
holds a special interest in the DS420 as used by royalty all over the world.
He already exhibited his vast knowledge on this subject
in a series of articles published in "The Driving Member",
magazine of the Daimler and Lanchester Owners' Club,
and shown on our web page with
articles in English.
But in this magazine article he really surpassed himself;
this article is both huge and impressive!
