SUMMARY

A rare Star Sapphire on offer from ten-years diligent ownership and very attractively guided.

DESCRIPTION

  • Introduced in 1958, the Star Sapphire was the final production model built in Coventry
  • Last throw of the dice for Armstrong Siddeley and a case of going out in style - fast, good to drive, a real Jaguar beater
  • Powered by a 4-litre six-cylinder producing 165bhp with a fully automatic gearbox. Top speed of 105mph when new
  • Many interesting features, including Girling disc brakes on the front wheels, power steering and a separate heating and ventilating system for the rear
  • Finished in dark green over beige with cream leather piped in dark green, this particular example is fitted with a Limousine boot
  • Purchased by our vendor in 2013, with just three former keepers
  • The engine was rebuilt in 2011 by the Chairman of the Armstrong Siddeley Club
  • Supplied with its original Owners Manual, service history, original parts book, operating handbook, and lubrication charts
  • Some rare body parts will accompany the car including windscreen rubbers
