Originally set up to import
French Clément cars into England, Talbot soon
began manufacture in its own right. Combined with
Darracq and Sunbeam to form STD motors in 1920.
Enjoyed success with designs by Swiss born Georges
Roesch, credited with the 10/23 model in 1923. STD collapsed in 1935, Talbot and Sunbeam being
purchased by the Rootes group, their names mostly
used to adorn upmarket Hillmans. The Marque was
briefly revived by Peugeot-Citroën.

Talbot, ex-Sunbeam/Simca, supplemented its rather sparse range with a 'notchback' derivative of the 1510 (ex-1307 /1308), providing a saloon car with a separate lockable luggage compartment in line with several other manufacturers. More >> |
