GaryK Posted May 12, 2022 Share Posted May 12, 2022 A well used Allegro Vanden Plas "Shooting Brake" in Chichester today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Jonathan Kay Posted May 12, 2022 Member Share Posted May 12, 2022 Bulgin in CAR:“Look at the Austin Allegro Vanden Plas. Look hard – and, in the purity of its discreet front-end layout, its perfectly balanced mix of regal radiator grille and rectangular headlamps, you can see the inspiration behind the nose styling of the Jaguar XJ40.“For, as Jaguar’s pencil men so obviously realised, the Allegro Vanden Plas is a seminal British car design, combining classic elegance with the timeless appeal only a real commitment to quality can engender.“The Allegro’s subtle grille, especially when combined with the model’s distinctively sleek, svelte lines, makes it an easy winner in the pub car park glamour parade. An understated elegance pervades the car.“In no way does it resemble an ordinary tin box that has been warmed over with a grotesquely crude nose job.”And that wasn't even the estate!Jonathan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Area Representative Golf Juliet Tango Posted May 12, 2022 Author Area Representative Share Posted May 12, 2022 An Allegro certainly counts as unusual these days but a neighbour has a saloon version. Thank you for the spot and Jonathan for the contemporary point of view.I just remember the comments at the time "an Austin 1100 with all the qualities ironed out".

Area Representative Golf Juliet Tango Posted May 12, 2022 Author Area Representative Share Posted May 12, 2022 BTW:- the Elan 2+2 has been out and about recently, I'vee seen it several times, at least once with an adult passenger squeezed into the +2 rear. Must be a contortionist in their spare time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomB Posted May 12, 2022 Share Posted May 12, 2022 I think that Allegro is part of the 'rat look' sub culture i.e. make your car look like it's been fished out of a lake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil Six 7 Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 Once a fairly common site on the road, a Ford Granada GL estate. This one looks like it is in good condition. It was heading south on the A1 near to Knottingley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
