Talk:Alvis Car and Engineering Company

message: Any Alvis collectors here? My father used to have an Alvis when I was a child, I believe it was a TC21. Would love to know if it survived. Reg plate was JGD 411. Is there an Alvis register? Graham 04:40, 27 February 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: Simply wrong

message: As listed here, the post war models TA14 to TF21 are listed as TA 14 to TF 21. I have recently created pages for some of these models and am now in doubt as to which is correct.  I am suspicious that there should not be a space between letters and numbers. 
Which is correct? Malcolma (talk) 16:00, 24 June 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Spaces in post war model names

message: I took some photos of several Alvis cars, one of which is here Unknown model Alvis I was going to add it to this article but it needs the model number to identify it really. Can any one help as it does not exactly look like any in the linked articles ? its similar to the TE21 or is it a TC 108 Graber ? - BulldozerD11 (talk) 19:57, 7 May 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Alvis car model Identity 

message: As follows, referring to Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy (film):
:==Alvis in the Movies==
:An Alvis owned by one of the spies in Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy appears in several scenes.  At one point, the character is talking to a student and says the Alvis is the "best car in England."

replies: text: Is it in the book, or was it just added for the film?  If expanded, this might be worth having as it indicates that Alvis has a high status car at the time, although something of a niche taste (c.f. Bristol or A-M) and in contrast to Jags or (&deity; forbid) Rollers.  As it was though, it was not only a trivial topic, it was trivial coverage of it and we're right to lose it.

replies: text: If memory serves me correctly, the book begins with a boy at a boarding school watching Jim Prideaux drive into the school in an Alvis with a caravan behind it.  The boy eventually speaks to Prideaux, who says something like "best car in England" when discussing his car.  However, I have not read the book in several years.
