Description
One of only three Doctor's Coupes built on the Amstrong Siddely 12/ 6 chassis by Maltby's of Folkestone.
This pretty two seater is one of two known survivors and was found in East London in 1980 followed by a full restoration.
The 1434cc engine runs smooth and is coupled to a "Silent Self Changing Gearbox" (also know as a pre-selector). The car features built in jacks.
The interior is in very good condition.
The car comes with a lot of historical documents including pictures and original owners (maintenance) manual. Why You’ll Love This Car
This 1934 Armstrong Siddeley 12hp Doctor’s Coupé is a rare and beautifully preserved example of pre-war British motoring. With its upright, dignified lines, distinctive grille, and original Armstrong Siddeley details—including the iconic Sphinx mascot—it embodies the refined, understated luxury that defined the marque.
This car is more than just a static showpiece—it runs and drives beautifully. The 12hp engine is smooth and responsive, and the gearbox shifts cleanly through all gears. Whether you're cruising along country lanes or pulling into a classic car event, it offers an engaging and surprisingly usable driving experience for a car of its era.
Why I Bought It
I was drawn to this Armstrong Siddeley for its elegance, rarity, and the quiet confidence it exudes. These were cars built for professionals—solid, well-engineered, and stylish without being ostentatious. I wanted a pre-war vehicle that stood out not just for its looks, but also for its engineering pedigree—and this one delivers.
My Favourite Thing About It
My favourite thing is how well it drives. For a car that’s over 90 years old, it’s remarkably well-mannered on the road. It's not just a vintage car to look at—it’s one you can genuinely enjoy driving.
