Coventry Craftsmanship, 1919 — 1967

Founded in Coventry in 1919 by T.G. John, Alvis Car and Engineering Company quickly earned a reputation for uncompromising engineering and hand-built quality. For nearly fifty years, Alvis stood alongside Rolls-Royce and Bentley as one of Britain’s most respected luxury marques.

Did You Know?

Alvis made Britain’s first front-wheel-drive production car in 1928 and supplied armoured vehicles to the British Army for 40 years!

The Alvis Car Club of New Zealand Incorporated was founded in 1969 by a small group of dedicated owners determined to keep these remarkable cars on the road in the Antipodes.

Fifty years later, that spirit continues – with national rallies, technical knowledge sharing, and a spares scheme that is the envy of overseas clubs.
