Allard

Allard Motor Company Limited, better known as Allard, was an English automotive manufacturer established in 1945. Before forming Allard, the company&#39;s founder, Sydney Allard, had established a reputation as one of Europe&#39;s finest race car builders, creating a run of custom made &quot;Allard Specials&quot; created from parts sourced from a range of contemporary cars. After establishing his company, Sydney Allard built a range of performance and competition models. These cars were built using a range of third party engines and chassis, and were known by their letter designation: the <a href="https://www.classic.com/m/allard/j/">Allard J</a> was offered as a short wheelbase two seater, the <a href="https://www.classic.com/m/allard/k/">Allard K</a> was offered as two or three seat roadsters, the <a href="https://www.classic.com/m/allard/l/">Allard L</a> was a range of four seat tourers, and the <a href="https://www.classic.com/m/allard/p/">Allard P</a> was a range of fixed-head grand tourers. Other examples such as the <a href="https://www.classic.com/m/allard/m/">Allard M</a>, a range of drophead coupes, were also built. Later in its life, Allard also built models such as the microcar Clipper, and the luxurious <a href="https://www.classic.com/m/allard/palm-beach/">Palm Beach</a>. After a period of success, Allard entered into financial problems, eventually becoming bankrupt in 1957. In modern times, the Allard name has been used for a run of continuation cars and replicas by a range of companies.
