This 1959 example is believed to be one of the top three original Armstrong Siddeley Star Sapphires with documented mileage out of approximately 60 surviving vehicles.
The Star Sapphire is reported to have never been restored; it has had some minor areas of paintwork, but it has never had a complete respray.
The car was initially purchased by an elderly gentleman who owned it for over 30 years.
The second owner was an ASOC member and cherished the car before passing it on to another ASOC member who cared for it meticulously until the summer of 2023 when it became an estate sale, whereupon a close friend and fellow Armstrong enthusiast took on handling the sale of the car.
The owner had a huge interest in quality classic cars from this era, including Hooper Daimlers, Bentleys, and Jaguars, but his main passion lay with the Armstrong Siddeley Star Sapphire, owning a number of Armstrong Siddeleys since the age of 15 and being a life member of the Armstrong Siddeley Owners Club.
