Allard [3] (United Kingdom) - AllCarIndex

Allard Replicas was a British automotive manufacturer active from 1994 to 1997, based in Harpenden, Hertfordshire. The company specialized in producing replicas of the classic Allard J2X sports car. These replicas were notable for their connection to the HARDY Allard, a lineage that maintained the spirit of the original Allard vehicles.

The Allard J2X replica featured a chassis and body designed by Dennis Adams, who was also known for his work on the Marcos sports cars. The replicas were engineered to accommodate Jaguar XJ12 mechanical components, including the V12 engine, which provided a blend of classic design and modern performance. Customers had the option to purchase these vehicles either as complete cars or in kit form, allowing for a degree of customization and personal involvement in the assembly process.

The use of the Allard name was authorized through an agreement with the then-current holders of the trademark, ensuring that the legacy of the Allard brand continued through these modern interpretations.
