My guess would be homemade, not sure what country it's in as I'm not too hot on number plates and their country or origin. I read on faceache that the Allegro had their 50th anniversary celebrations last weekend and no less than 80 cars turned up. 80! That's seriously impressive 👏 👏 👏

	I was thinking home made, all looks very good it's just that rear quarter light window that doesn't look quite right. 80 Allegros in one place is indeed impressive, must have been at the factory the last time that many were in one place.

	Relevant Leyland Content.. To those questioning the outright murder of a Spitfire, we do redress this imbalance, or at least we are currently working on it!

	He feels the same about Marinas, for some reason I love the girder front bumper on the US/Canadian Austin version….
