It's a Talbot Sunbeam Lotus (if a genuine). Sunbeams were basically a shortened version of the Avenger, complete with RWDy goodness. The Ti had a 1.6 with twin Webers, the Lotus a Lotus 2.2 16V. The 1981 WRC manufacturers champinionship was one with one (drivers champinionship was Ari Vatanen in an RS1800)jtbo wrote:Talbot Horizont with Lotus bagde, never heard of that one!
I know that such Talbot was sold in US and they had some quite quick turbo version made, it had completely different name which I have forgotten already.

Talbot Horizon it was called here, it was FWD, while Chrysler Sunbeam sold in US was RWD, it was made in UK even it was French PSA product and we never got even one of those, only crappy FWD versionsChris_C wrote: It's a Talbot Sunbeam Lotus (if a genuine).

Shelby GLH-S was that american version, 174hp was a lot at that time.
