A rare pre-World War Two car that is one of only eight survivors of its kind has sold at auction for nearly £105,000.

The 1934 Alvis Speed 20 SB Vanden Plas was built to rival to the likes of Rolls-Royce and Bentley.

But only 34 were ever made so it was even then among the most exclusive motors on the road.

Now however, just eight are known to exist and it is among the most sought-after cars on the planet.
