Wikipedia gets it right..."They were widely considered one of the finest cars produced in the 1930s."
The Speed 25 Alvis was produced from August of 1936 to a 1940 with 391 examples constructed. 39 were given Tourer bodies. The Speed 25 were basically upgraded versions of the 3.5-liter Model and resting on a shortened 126-inch wheelbase. The spare wheel was moved from the rear to the left side and there were many minor aesthetic detail changes, including a revised air-cleaner system and Luvax hydraulic shock absorbers which replaced the earlier Andre units. The engine displacement was unchanged but several other modifications to the engine resulted in a boost in horsepower to 106 bhp at 3800 RPM. The heavier bodied sedans were able to achieve a top speed of just under 97 mph. The lighter bodied cars were surely able to achieve the 100 mph mark.
This is one of 39 Tourer Speed 25 Models constructed. Of those, only seven, including this car, were fitted with the upgraded SC series engine.
