Talbot Sunbeam GLS?
Discussion
An a set of gold alloys...
Saw this yesterday on t'internet, it's low mileage, don't recall if original or restored but lets face it, it is hardly in original specification with lights, alloys, webers etc. so surely worth less to the person who wanted an original spec car. It's more like an Escort made up to be a Mexico or similar.....

Also had a black Ti HRR 490V earlier in the 80s.
I had a black Series 2 Ti in the mid 80's. Series 2 Ti's were very rare, even back then.Can't remember the reg number now though...... MPL 995W rings a bell, but can't be 100% on that.
My cousin's FiL at the time (early 80's) had a GLS from new, a S1 in a silver-blue colour. Think it was a T or V reg.
£17k......is a little strong me thinks for that. Half that....maybe, just if the shell is mint?

The ebay ad says there's a copy of the original advertising material showing the car (or a car with that reg!)
It also says 5 speed box - assuming that doesn't mean 4 and reverse, I guess that's more likely to be a type 9 than a Lotus (Getrag?) one.
It will be a Type 9 I’m sure, never heard of anyone using the ZF on the standard engine, but you never know.It also says 5 speed box - assuming that doesn't mean 4 and reverse, I guess that's more likely to be a type 9 than a Lotus (Getrag?) one.

It was fun to throw about down the local lanes .
True, although my ti did have a tendency for the back to try and overtake the front in the rain!Gassing Station | Classic Cars and Yesterday's Heroes | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
