About this car

The TA14 was Alvis's first post-war model, a traditional sports saloon built in the late 1940s with a wooden-framed body and a leather-and-walnut cabin in the pre-war manner. This 1949 car has been recently restored in full.

The dealer reports no body or chassis problems, with paint and chrome in excellent order and the mechanical side sound throughout. Inside, the interior woodwork is described as excellent, the carpets and headlining are good, and the cloth seats are in good condition. It also has a sunroof. No mileage, registration or ownership history is given.
