WOW INCREDIBLY STUNNING IN EVERY WAY, AWESOME VIDEO REVIEW

[@bernardkealey6449]

Well that was quite unexpected; I chuckled at your very understated use of “may have reservations”, but obviously this car has been incredibly well loved and the owner did what they thought best for their own reasons. It’s great to see it’s still on the road and being used for what it was built for.

Traditionalist or not , this is lovely , way quicker than standard six .

A lovely car of the kind I would [in my dreams] really love to have. But not this one. How sad that the proper Alvis six cylinder engine has been replaced by that real bag of nails V8 from Rover/Buick. Some people have absolutely no taste. If I wanted a horror of an engine like that I would get a rusty scrapper of a Land Rover! Best wishes from George

George, that Rover bag of nails is a wonderful machine. You should try a good one, sometime. Technically magnificent, and with bags of extra performance capability should you want to tune it. The Alvis 6 I'm sure is also great, and will sound different and feel different.

I second the sentiments of helloxyz. That motor is light, under stressed and reliable. Driving a light auto so equipped offers a gob of torque and the growl of American muscle. While the inline 6 is elegant, it offers quite a different, busy sound.

When cars were lovely and individual.
