Fun Fact: The name "Alvis" was derived from "AL"=aluminum and "vis"= Latin for 'strength'. This little guy can't possibly look any more British.

@jcarnutz The sun's reflection off the bonnet must have been blinding but you can just picture it motoring down those narrow British country roads being driven by a uniformed RAF captain.... or someone named 'Nigel'.

I always thought it was someone's name...perhaps Alvis's.

@rich-sufficool haha, you probably weren't allowed to buy one unless you were named Nigel!
I remember FMs spiel on this, "a real wood dash". Sold my damaged one years ago, gotta find another now, great pics thanks Rich.

Very nice presentation here Rich. I had not seen the Alvis with the top up. Here is my top down version.
In the glass case, I could not get a glare free picture.
