it's pom, I think you'll find it is a Daimler consort, most of the others had gone to push button doors, and the daimler was also the last to lose the 'suicide doors' ( front doors hinged on B pillar, another typical daimler trait was the pronounced angle/ridge along the front guards http://rides.webshots.com/photo/2156861200031775692CLszci

and if it is, I wonder if it still has the original jacking system in it, they had 4 worm jacks built into the body, the gear was operated by a light chain and could be done from inside of the vehicle

Car in the OP's photo has a bright metal trim with the door handles built into it, and that trim curves down to meet the top of the rear wheel guard.
Daimler Consort doesn't have a metal trim there, and the coach line where its door handles are passes far above the top of the rear guard.
Also the Daimler's front guards don't flow through to the rear, with running board treads on them like the OP's car has.

You mean Armstrong Siddeley.
Its not a Sapphire or Star Sapphire as they don't have the runners like the pic in #1. The Whitley's and Hurricanes don't have covered rear wheels.
