Is this an Alvis Speed Twenty-Five bodied by Lancefield in 1937?

I know only the coachbuilder and I am not sure that the car existed

No, I saw these picture in an old Classic and Sportscar magazine
In that small article they say it was from 1935

Be that as it may, and without disputing your well deserved point

, I am sure that the design was by Thrupp & Maberly. In fact, it is their chauffeur who is shown behind the wheel.

Sorry , I have no other information !
