• Superbly restored to high standard
• Original 4.3 Litre engine, gearbox, and chassis from new

The 1937 Alvis Speed 25 Sports Tourer represents a true pinnacle of pre-war British automotive engineering, seamlessly marrying sportscar performance with an impressive degree of mechanical refinement. Launched by the Holyhead Road factory to compete directly with contemporary grand tourers from Bentley and Lagonda, the Speed 25 is widely celebrated as one of the most sophisticated models ever produced by the Alvis Car and Engineering Company. This highly desirable open tourer variant showcases the flowing, low-slung lines that epitomise the glamour of 1930s motoring, making it an exceptionally attractive ticket for prestigious historic road rallies and international concours events. The driver interacts with a remarkably advanced chassis that features independent front suspension, servo-assisted brakes and a pioneering four-speed, all-synchromesh gearbox, a technological triumph that offers exceptionally precise drivability.

This absolutely stunning Alvis presents a rare opportunity to acquire one of the finest examples of the classic British sportscar. Originally configured as a saloon, the car was purchased by the current vendor in 2008, who subsequently commissioned an expert transformation into a highly desirable sports tourer drophead. The new bodywork was crafted to an exceptionally high standard and is beautifully finished in an attractive two-tone livery of dark olive green over light green. The cabin has been completely refreshed to match, boasting contrasting dark green leather upholstery with matching door cards, all complemented by a dark green mohair hood, side screens, and a coordinating tonneau cover. The interior refinement is further elevated by a freshly veneered dashboard in dark mahogany, while the exterior aesthetics are completed by gleaming brightwork and an elegant, enclosed, rear-mounted spare wheel.

Crucially, this fabulous Alvis retains its highly desirable, original 4.3 litre engine, original gearbox, and original chassis from new. Offering effortless performance that is ideal for touring, the engine benefits from subtle, discrete modern enhancements integrated solely to improve safety and reliability on today's roads. Presenting in superb mechanical and cosmetic condition, this masterfully executed drophead conversion stands as a testament to British motoring elegance. Consigned by James Good
