A quick look at one of FMs models that is not often seen these days. I remember being very intrigued by the look of this model, but as it often happened, another model always took precedent, and this got pushed to the back burner. When it came time to finally buy one of my own, they were out of stock. I went to my local FM gallery store in the mall and the manager tracked one down for me. A bit different and not quite where the main core of my collection is concentrated, but an interesting model all the same.

Terrific photos John! I hadn't heard of the Alvis until FM released this model in August 1989.

beautiful car. I remember the FM brochure stating "with a real wood dash". Damaged my original and sold it. Must get another. Great pics thanks John
