1938 Alvis Speed 25 Drophead Coupe review from UK and Ireland

"A British classic"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Nothing since rebuild to original condition when acquired.

General comments?

Obviously the marks section is by comparison with other cars of the period. In terms of roadholding, ride quality and the glorious all-synchro gearbox, this car is a delight to drive and eats up long distances both enthusiastically and reliably.
