When I searched the nabble evdl archives http://electric-vehicle-discussion-list.413529.n4.nabble.com/template/NamlServlet.jtp?macro=search_page&node=413529&query=%22Allied+Vehicles%22&days=0&sort=date it had posts from 2012. From what I can see, your company has different product lines. I will assume your focus will be with http://www.alliedelectric.co.uk the retrofitting of Peugeot vehicles. Because a web search on "Allied Electric" on my side of the pond would likely mainly bring up U.S. sites, I used "Allied Electric" UK and your company's search engine listing came up directly.
