Allard was never known for producing cars in great numbers, and the P2 is no exception, with only ten examples being built from 1952 to 1954. In fact, out of the ten originals, only four survive to this day.
The P2 could be ordered with a wide range of engines, built by Ford, Mercury, and Cadillac, the latter being a 5.4 litre V8. The latter produced 160 horsepower, or 119 kilowatts, but made up for the lack of horsepower with almost 270-foot pounds of torque. These engines are also very easily modified, making the Safari a prime candidate for a fantastic sleeper.
