Step into British motoring history with this elegant 1946 Armstrong Siddeley Hurricane 16, a rare and refined example of early postwar automotive craftsmanship. Powered by a 2. 0L inline-4 engine producing 71 hp, paired with a manual transmission, this classic drophead coupé offers a dignified driving experience that blends vintage charm with solid engineering.
The Hurricane was launched by Armstrong Siddeley in 1946 as one of the marque’s first peacetime models after World War II. Known for building aircraft engines and luxury vehicles, Armstrong Siddeley brought a unique level of sophistication to the postwar market. The Hurricane, with its stylish open-top design and coachbuilt body, was targeted at the gentleman driver who valued both performance and prestige. This model helped reintroduce a sense of luxury in a recovering Britain, combining elegant lines with practical engineering. The 16 hp tax rating placed it in the upper mid-range segment, while the pre-selector gearbox (a rare and innovative feature for its time) made for smooth and effortless shifting.
Now you can buy a peace of history and carry on Armstrong's legacy.
