Found this. Boot really improves All-aggro's proportions, but the vinyl roof moves it back into the tragic category

All you'd need is the back end of a Marina (and a lot of time and a welder, and some swears probably) and you could make that happen, with or without vinyl roof.

Nah, it's loads easier to just lop the back off a Marina and glue it on the Leggy. Also, Marina is RWD, Allegro is FWD, so proportions on the front are going to give you loads more work to get it all lined up messing about with wheel arches and stuff. Sticking the Marina bum on you could probably just unpick the panels, rivet the Marina ones on and even use the original Allegro boot hinges.
I want to get an Allegro and a Marina bum now just to see if I can do it.

That's nice to know as I only live a couple of minutes away. But, visiting by appointment only? It'd be a bit weird walking around there on your own or with a small group don't you think? So unless you could get a car club to attend...

It's a bit strange isn't it Porsche I've sent an email but as yet not had a response, not tried the phone number. I would have thought there would be some sort of open day some time.
