The Armstrong was a British 4-wheeled cyclecar made in 1913 by the Armstrong Motor Company of Birmingham.

The car was available with a choice of air- or water-cooled, two-cylinder 8 hp engines made by Precision. The cheaper air-cooled version had belt drive to the rear axle, but the dearer water-cooled model had shaft drive.[2]

The number made is not known.
