Ardex was a small French automobile manufacturer controlled by Marcel Tamine and based in Nanterre.
[1] In 1934, Ardex produced its first cyclecar, which followed the form of the Morgan three-wheeler and was powered by a V2 500 cc engine.
The war years were characterised by a desperate shortage of raw materials for civilian industry and of petrol.
[1] The first significant order came from the Fulmen Company, then a leading French producer of electrical goods and equipment.
He went on to create the Ardex S80, which was entered in the 1981 24 Hours of Le Mans as a Group 6 Prototype but failed to qualify.
