A very honest example of this late 1920s Tourer by Alvis. This is very much an oily rag car with distressed paintwork and patinated interior and could be left a running restoration or a great restoration candidate. Mechanically running and driving well with gears selecting easily. With part worn cross ply tyres and wire wheels.

The interior is finished in grey leather, the seats are worn and cracked but there is no signs or excessive damage. All correct instruments and dials are present with original steering wheel. The Alvis comes with correct folding hood and front side screens only.
