I passed my test in a 1975 allegro, it was a complete nightmare. It was my Mothers brand new car, bought to replace a 1971 Morris 1300, which was by a country mile a better car. It wouldn't tick over without keeping the choke out a tiny bit, and wouldn't do 30 MPH in 4th gear on a level road without jerking all over. How I passed is beyond me, I was nervous to start with and the car problems had me in a right state. It was without doubt the very worst car we ever had, and she only kept it 12 months and took a massive loss on it.

There was one thing that could send my Mrs into Hypertension and that was a Allegro. Hated them with a passion.

That thing has been sitting there so long I'm surprised it's not been declared a historical monument.

Get it off the road or they'll take it and you'll get to pay for it. Poor Bluebell wish you well.

One drive by with an ANPR camera and the car will be taken away on a low loader. No tax, no MOT, no insurance, even it's on a SORN it has to be off road. Lucky you haven't been fined.

Awesome! Just curious about the dashboard; I've never seen an Allegro before with three instruments in the small (early) 2-clock binnacle. Is it original or an owner mod? Since this is on an R plate, is it a changeover design?

Hi mate. Not trying to cause trouble as you might not be aware, but did you know its illegal to park a car in the road without mot, tax and insurance?
