This is a simply glorious story; the marrying of vintage style with current technology and a new lease of life for a classic design. This is not just any old replica - a fabricated shell clothing the modern mechanicals of a newer car - this is an altogether different proposition and one that I hope we will see more of. I can't imagine what it will be like to drive a car such as this - first designed over 70 years ago but now re-imagined using CAD and the latest engineering advancements - surely the ultimate combination of old and new complete with the advantages of both and the drawbacks of neither.
I congratulate the new owners of Alvis for undertaking this endeavour and wish their "new" car every success. Here's to more of the same sort of thing.
This is definitely what I'm buying when I win the lotto :)
