About Alvis Founded in Coventry in 1919, Alvis quickly established itself as a maker of high-quality sporting and luxury cars. The marque was respected for innovation, with a reputation that stood alongside Bentley and Lagonda. Alvis cars were known for their engineering integrity—vehicles that were as rewarding to drive as they were to admire. Even today, the name Alvis resonates with collectors who appreciate its blend of style, rarity, and build quality. Why the TA14 Matters The TA14 was the car that brought Alvis back to production after the war, making it historically significant within the company’s story. Survivors are relatively scarce, particularly in this condition, and they represent excellent value in the classic market compared with some of the more obvious post-war marques. This is a motor car for the enthusiast who values heritage and craftsmanship, or for the collector seeking to add a true Coventry-built thoroughbred to their garage.
