Overview

Founded in 1919 Alvis enjoyed a successful period during 1920-1939, re-emerging again in 1946 with the TA14. During W.W.II Alvis had established itself as a successful manufacturer of Aero engines, other military products included Armoured cars and all-wheel drive vehicles for specialist applications.

Post-war Alvis models were rather conservative Grand Touring cars, although they enjoyed an enviable reputation for quality and performance. Later cars carried elegant bodies designed by Swiss-Coachbuilder, Graber and were produced for Alvis by Park Ward. In 1965 the company was taken over by Rover and production of passenger cars ceased.
