In the year of his coronation (1937) three new Daimler State cars were delivered to the King: a limousine, a landaulette and a shooting brake (all with 32 hp 4½-litre straight-eight engines). His mother Queen Mary also upgraded her fleet, acquiring two new cars: one for official use (a 32 hp 'Straight-Eight' limousine), and one for personal use (a 24 hp six-cylinder limousine, painted green). She also continued to make use of her 1935 limousine, and furthermore inherited her late husband's Silver Jubilee car (and with it 'Humphrey', his long-serving erstwhile chauffeur).
