Allied Vehicles – other models: the collective page of wheelchair-accessible Ford conversions outside the named Independence and Vista ranges, 1,498 to 1,997 cm³ displacement, 1,458 to 2,555 kg unladen weight
Allied Vehicles is a Scottish converter based in Glasgow that adapts series-production vehicles, chiefly Fords, into wheelchair-accessible vehicles for taxi and private use; model names such as Independence and Vista denote the respective conversion packages with a lowered floor and rear ramp for wheelchair access. This page gathers the Allied Vehicles types the register could not assign to a named range.

The register lists here 6 versions with displacements from 1,498 to 1,997 cm³, all four-cylinder, unladen weights from 1,458 to 2,555 kg, gross weights from 2,350 to 3,240 kg, lengths from 4,850 to 5,540 mm and widths from 1,850 to 2,090 mm.
Wheelchair-accessible conversions are especially widespread in Britain's taxi trade, where many councils require accessible vehicles; Allied Vehicles ranks here, alongside competitors such as Jubilee and BraunAbility, among the established converters built on common Ford models. Many local authorities specify such vehicles for school transport and non-emergency patient transport as well.
On these conversions, the condition and function of the ramp, tie-down points and lowered floor, corrosion in the reworked body areas, and the standard parts of the respective Ford donor vehicle all matter; parts for the conversion hardware run through Allied Vehicles itself, and for the vehicle base through the Ford network.
