RED TRIANGLE

Exclusively Alvis

Founded by the ex-employees, with the help and support of the Alvis Company, Red Triangle started business in June 1968 providing parts and service for the cars in everyday use at that time.

The Alvis Company passed everything to Red Triangle – the complete stock of ALVIS PARTS, all 22,000 Car Records, one for every car Alvis produced and over 14,000 works drawings, correspondence files and data sheets – in fact everything to do with Alvis cars from 1920 to 1967.

What our customers say about us:

Today I received the Red Triangle Catalogue. It is an amazing catalogue the quality of the paper the photography every single detail of to. It's so well put together, so classy it just brings the quality of our cars to another level. Every paragraph of the catalogue really brings a flame of joy of ownership.

I am glad to report that, after a couple of local journeys in London, my car seems much improved. Well, actually vastly improved. The engine seems to be running better with the electronic distributor, the steering feels just right, the brakes are right up and the awful passenger door rattles have gone. Even the heater motor is working - and registering on the ammeter. I send my compliments to you and everyone at Red Triangle, especially those who have tweaked the car and raised it to its present, better-than-ever condition.

S.R. London

Wow!! What a privilege to spend an hour and a half with you yesterday Richard. Michael and I did not stop talking about our visit all afternoon. The quality of your work and sheer beauty of the product is just amazing. We loved the archive and all the history and quite honestly we could have spent all day there - no – all week! You treated us like royalty and you can be sure we will be good ambassadors for Red Triangle and Alvis

Alan in customer service could not have been more helpful. It was the best value for money I have had in decades.

A.F. – SOUTH GLAMORGAN

The essential pre tour service has been beyond reproach. We drove some 2750 miles in hot and cold weather, wet and dry, high up to usually around 5000 ft and down again many times, in congested Inter – states, around big cities and all the time the car never missed a beat.

R.H. – HAMPSHIRE

R.A. – Scotland

"I thought you would like to know that I have completed nearly 400 miles in the car over the last few days and it has been a joy to behold and drive and has performed faultlessly throughout. We went to the South west Alvis day near Tiverton on Sunday where the car was much admired and won a cup for best car from Cornwall, much to our surprise as we had not entered !! Since my initial drive a couple of weeks ago, much seems to have been done to improve the steering and now the interior is fitted , the car seems surprisingly quiet and easy to drive. My wife Moyra has even driven the car and finds no difficulty in doing so and she is full of praise for our new carriage"

" We've had plenty of use now with the 12/50 plus overdrive including 1,500m to France. The overdrive ratio is excellent; 18% coupled with the 4.5 diff means we have all the benefit of the '5th' gear but there is still plenty left for overtaking or long inclines without dropping to top. So thank you and thank you for tackling all the under floor and behind dash fiddlings you obviously had to contend with "
