Product Description ■〜 Style Aristocrat -
Elias, Duke of Bourbon-Parma (27, full name Elias Robert Karl María Pius), has had considerable wealth at his disposal since around 1907 and has become a hobby of cars, which were still in their infancy.
It's not clear how deep his passion was, but his connection with the Austria-Hungary homeland may have made his decision to buy the Austrian Daimler.
Elias asked for a car with a design that met his wishes and ordered an engine-mounted Austrian Daimler chassis. His customization of wishes was limited to his own body.
It's not clear whether the idea of a very luxurious design was based on his own ideas, or whether it was the suggestion of a person who appeared to be an expert.
It's a very different shape from the lines known at the time, emphasizing the hard edges and corners that run slightly upwards towards the end of the body.
Also notable is the fender located just above the tires, with the two rear fenders projecting a gentle curve.
The four seater interior tends to be luxurious despite the sporty exhaust pipes that protrude from the side of the body.
The aristocrat wanted to show off in this unique piece may be precisely this combination of nobility and efficiency.
