The Car

1947 Armstrong Siddeley Lancaster 16HP Saloon

This is a fine specimen of a car indeed! This beautiful two tone green vehicle dates back to 1947, where it began its life with a high society lady in London. It's a beautiful example of a post war luxury car with smart and elegant lines and plush interior.

The hand built motor body is finished with two tones of rich green, complementing the tan leather and light cream Bedford cloth interior. It is even named after the admired WWII bomber aircraft.

Living up to the Siddley company motto "silent as a Sphinx", the car's engine purrs efficiently and effectively, only adding to the comfort of the journey. With a two litre straight six engine, the Lancaster is smooth and offers the ultimate authentic yet comfortable experience.
