You may remember that we invited you per Newsletter to show your car at the PreWarCar-PostWarClassic stand in Maastricht, Interclassics (Thursday 14- Sunday 17 January). We received many most interesting candidates and we like to thank you for the fact that you took the time to write us. We were offered a very nice Bugatti Bescia, an Edwardian SCAP tourer (once offered on these pages and now 'on the road' again). A German built MAF and various other interesting beauties. Unfortunately we have only limited space and had to select one pre-war car and one post-war.
For the pre-war selection we decided for this one-off 1933 Alvis Speed 20 SB that was bodied by Arthur Mulliner as commissioned by the Earl of March (the later Duke of Richmond and Gordon). First registration was AXA 137. Some of our UK readers may remember the car from many years ago when it still was red and in need of er... a lot. The full restoration has taken the most of 15 years and the car was only finished last summer and did appear briefly at Schloss Dyck. As from Wednesday until Sunday it will be shown in full glory at PreWarCar's stand at Interclassics.
