Minerva AL

Minerva was Belgium's premier luxury automobile manufacturer, and the AL series represented the pinnacle of their craftsmanship. Built with exceptional quality and silent-running sleeve-valve engines, these cars competed directly with Rolls-Royce. The AL featured coachbuilt bodies from prestigious European coachbuilders and was favored by Belgian royalty. Economic depression and changing tastes led to Minerva's decline in the late 1930s.
