Shop diecast Daimler models at Fairfield Collectibles, dedicated to one of the founding names in automotive history. Gottlieb Daimler's name lives on in two distinct traditions — the German engineering lineage that led to Mercedes-Benz, and the separate British luxury marque that supplied vehicles to the royal family for decades.
Few names carry as much foundational weight in automotive history as Daimler, and the British branch in particular built its own distinct identity as a royal and government luxury supplier, separate from its German namesake's path toward Mercedes-Benz. That dual legacy — one name, two very different stories — makes Daimler a genuinely deep subject for collectors interested in automotive history.
Is British Daimler the same company as German Daimler-Benz?No — they share a namesake founder, Gottlieb Daimler, but developed as separate companies; the British marque became known for supplying royal and government vehicles.
What is Daimler best known for?Decades as a preferred supplier of luxury vehicles to the British royal family and government.
