Allard Motor Company Limited was a London-based low-volume car manufacturer founded in 1945 by Sydney Allard [1] in small premises in Clapham, south-west London.

Chassis number L-102 left the works just in time for the SMMT (Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders) cavalcade through London in September 1946. It was driven by Ken Hutchinson alongside Imhof’s white J1 (HLP 5) and Sydney’s pre-war tourer was there too.

Probably the cheapest V8 entry into historic motorsport, the Allard is the Swiss pocket knife of post-war sporting motoring, ready for the work commute Monday to Friday then fold the screen flat and race to glory at the weekend!

First registered in December 1948, it is believed to be one of just two such cars made, named the L1. It was reputedly driven to the 1948 or '49 London Motor Show by Sydney Allard and bought off the stand by an English racing driver resident in Italy.

The L1 had a wheelbase of 9 feet 4 inches and utilized the 95 bhp engine. The bodywork of the automobile was made of aluminum and formed an appealing 'wind cheating' shape that aided in the acceleration.
