A short-lived enterprise. Arrol-Aster was formed by the merger of Arrol-Johnson and Aster in 1927. Sales of the Aster 21/60 3042 cc Straight-6 overhead valve and the Aster 24/70 3460 cc Straight-6 sleeve valve were poor and the company entered receivership in 1929. Closure came in 1931 [Source: Wikipedia]
