a Talbot Sunbeam Lotus, c’est un peu l’OVNI génial de la fin des années 70 : une petite caisse très “simple” à la base, transformée en vraie arme grâce à Lotus, et devenue… championne du monde des constructeurs en rallye en 1981.
Notre exemplaire sort de la collection d’un amateur particulièrement méticuleux, qui, durant dix ans, n’a eu de cesse de l’entretenir et de l’améliorer. Cette Talbot est accompagnée d’un dossier complet (53 factures, 98 pages) ainsi que de toute sa littérature de bord d’origine.
Elle est prête à prendre la route l’esprit tranquille (que l'esprit) en répondant aux attentes du plus pointu des amateurs. Son châssis parfait, sa ligne d’échappement inox, sa suspension, ses radiateurs huile et eau racing alu, son allumage neuf, son pont autobloquant, ses pneus neufs etc. y contribuent. Il n’y a absolument aucune intervention à prévoir, à son volant votre condition physique sera entretenue.
