These two articles appeared in last months ( September) issue of Classic Car Mart magazine.
They are in Mike Worthington-Williams buried treasures pages. For those who haven't already seen them here they are:

According to that article the Peel is 53 feet long and 39 feet wide, definitely cannot be registered with RUM!

Dear Les
The image of the Allard Clipper looks remarkably like School House Farm. But who is the person with their back to the camera. Is it Male or Female. Is it Lesley or is it Andrew? who can remember?

I am not so sure that the Alllard Clipper is ours. i don't remember that photo. The Clipper that is in Story was sold to Otto by an enthusiast in the Southampton area as I recall way back in the 1980's so it could well be that one.

It's Otto's one. This is the picture the two Allard ladies were showing you & me at the Celebration weekend Jean, just before the prizegiving. The photo looks to be when it was collected by whoever the micro-folk were who recived it from the Allard Club. The Clipper in question then went to the 1983 National at Stuedly Castle & was bought by Otto at that event. Otto also buying the UXO 117 Brutch Mopetta the same day Still the first & only time I do belive that an Allard Clipper has been seen at the National.

Are there further informations of the Peel P50? NHF 904 is not on my register, and i never heard of it!

Stuart is quite right, as usual, this is the Allard that was sold a Sudley Castle therefore I would add that the person who examining the car so intently must be Nigel Tidman who sold it to Otto.

The Mystery is solved
Perhaps Les or Jean should put Mike Worthington Williams out of his agony, with the answer.

Perhaps Jean would be kind enough to do so as I assume she has more
knowledge of the car and the previous owner you speak off than I do.
Thanks, Les.
