• Margaret Mabel Gladys Allan (1909 – 1998) was a Scottish motor racing driver. She was one of the leading British female racing and rally drivers in the inter-war years, and one of only four women ever to earn a 120 mph badge at the Brooklands circuit.
• Allan's earliest entries into competitive motor sport were with her family's Lagonda, driving in trials. Allan's first international-level rally was the 1932 Monte Carlo Rally, that she entered in a works Riley Nine with co-driver Eve Staniland. The pair finished in 10th position overall.
Also in 1932, Allan had her first taste of circuit racing. Following a visit to the Brooklands circuit, she persuaded her father to buy a faster, supercharged, 2-litre Lagonda.
• 1935 was the year that saw Margaret Allan first drive one of the cars with which she was to become most strongly associated: Richard Marker's Bentley 4½ Litre, "Old Mother Gun".
