One of the best looking cars ever. I need tio own one.😅😅
This fine vehicle has PRESENCE!
beautiful cars............love the shape of them.
I would love to have this car in real life
Just a few things to point out;
as far as I am aware, all TE21's (and TF's) had the ZF five speed box, and not mentioned was the fact that they all have power steering also, so parking and manouvering them at slow speeds doesn't need the physique of a gorilla. Also TE's were produced through at least 1966.
Understated and elegant design.
Automatic gearbox not available?
Understated luxury.
Have a TD21 in the garage great car
Lovely video Fuzz,they are superb cars indeed,backed up by the knowing that you have the great spares and restoration services still of the Red Triangle Company, which is good as they can be a nightmare to restore.
An elegant car waiting for a good run in the Scottish highlands.😊
I remember as a little boy in Texas in the mid sixties being fascinated by cars such as these in the many British TV series we were importing, so exotic that they never came over here. This Alvis marque was particularly exotic to me. One of the most beautiful IP's ever installed on an automobile.
I would also love to own that car. I love these cars.....
A true gentleman's carriage . And to think Douglas Bader owned one ! Well Fuzz , if l win big time the cars yours but l said the same about that beautiful 2.5pi saloon.
What a great car ,always wanted one ,but never able to afford one
Beautiful, proper motorcar.
Beautiful majestic machine, built in motor city, my city
These were quite rare back in the day. They had real presence however. A very classy and desirable car. Still are.
STUNNING
It's a beauty
It didn't really come out strongly on this video, but the Alvis 3 litre six just about pips all else on sound. There are other videos on YT, one of them of a TE or TF moving out of a side road in suburbia sounding like pure pedigree high class.
A beautifull car, that reminds me of the Facel Vega - altough with Alvis ADN :)
There are a number of good Alvis TD21 and TE21s for sale at good prices, at present, as classic car prices have fallen in the last three years. Key thing is to check bodywork integrity, as the steel on ash frame can be tricky. Engines are pretty robust, but listen out for small or large end rattles. Rebuild will cost ££££. 'Clunks' on driving off or stopping can be diff or wire wheel splines. But "Go for it". These classy cars have some of the best spares availability from Red Triangle (Alvis Car Company), Chris Prince and other suppliers. Parts availability is better than many modern cars: I know through experience of maintaining my own TD21.
Beautiful Lady.
A really lovely car, but it would be even better with the TD21 single lights, mine had the auto box, which is no where near as nice as this manual ZF. Chris B.
Alvis for the king's highway the TF was the last in 1967 we made now more.
Do that blue Maserati in the back, lovely thing, a Shamal or something?
Graber designed. Swiss I think
1957 Humber Hawk tail lamps
Thank you! It was driving me nuts trying to place them.
It looks a bit like a Facel Vega.
Looks a bit like a Bristol
You are right! The british rivals of Alvis had been (as often said)not Aston,Jaguar or Bentley,but Bristol and Jensen !
Beautiful car indeed, but chromed wire wheels...strange?!
Why? Almost all British sports cars of the sixties could be had with wire wheels, either as a factory option or bought separately after purchase. Cars like the MGB, Jaguar E-Typ, even the Mk II Jaguar, Aston Martin and so on. The last "new" car I know that was fitted with wire wheels was the Aston Martin DBS in 1969, but when Aston Martin went on with the V8 they changed to steel wheels because the wire wheels couldn't handle the torque of the V8.
@@ingvarhallstrom2306 Wire wheels of course, but chromed? Originally they were painted in mat gray.
@@milosbrajkovic9855 What? Most wire wheels I've ever heard of has been chromed. Perhaps matte gray for cheaper cars? I've heard of wire wheels been painted black or green or dark red.
@@ingvarhallstrom2306 Matte gray for the sake of good taste. Chromed ar flashy, more American taste. Please try to find some old photos or movies, and you will see. Sorry, my English is so clamsy.
Really lose that music
