Seller's comments about 1932' Alvis Speed 20Sa
Manufacturer/ Type: ALVIS Speed 20 SA Vanden Plas Tourer;
Chassis-No.: 9846;
VIN: 14505;
Engine-No.: 10298;
Engine: In-line 6-cylinder, 2511ccm, ca. 92 PS;
Ex-Factory: 27. 05. 1932;
A very nice ivory white car with a meticulously detailed body-off chassis restoration to concours standard, fitted with the revised original engine. Wonderful to drive and easy to use in modern traffic.
A Scottish Alvis enthusiast has worked on this car for 4 years (2007-2011) and the finished result is perfect. A local engine engineering firm was contracted to carry out the engine overhaul while other components were sourced from Alvis specialists in the UK. The upholstery and the ornamental strip were made in Scotland.
Many Alvis Speed 20 Tourers were converted from sedans to Sports Tourer Specials in this millennium. However, this example is an original pre-war matching numbers car in fully restored condition.
This Alvis Speed 20 SA was manufactured in the first batch of 100 (out of a total of 351 Speed 20 SA) and features the typical rigid front axle.
The SA is considered by many enthusiasts to be the most desirable Speed model due to its lighter weight and superior quality.
Many chassis were fitted with Cross & Ellis Sports finish. New London Alvis dealer Charles Follett successfully offered this exclusive Vanden Plas 2-door Sports-Tourer at a higher price as the 100 M. P. H. car.
Some highlights for technology freaks:
Ignition via coil (starter) or magnet (drive); Ignition adjustment, hand throttle, parking lights, low beam and headlights can be operated mechanically via the steering wheel. Brake adjustment via wheel inside the car. Electric fan with adjustable thermostat. Electric overdrive. Central lubrication. Synchronized 4-speed gearbox (except 1st gear). The so-called crash box is present (original gearbox, unsynchronized) and comes with the car. Tarpaulin and plug-in window new like the soft top.
This Alvis is second hand since the restoration. It has always been carefully maintained, is in very good mechanical and optical condition and is being offered privately at a fair price because of the age of the owner.
