Sunbeam-Talbot Ten

The Sunbeam - Talbot Ten is a 4-door sedan, which brought out the Rootes Group in 1938 as an offshoot of the contemporary Hillman Minx. The model was also available as a convertible or tourer.

Had the classic sedan with sweeping fenders and freestanding headlights a side-valve 4- cylinder engine with 1185 cc capacity, which developed 41 bhp (30 kW). All 4 wheels were suspended on semi-elliptic leaf springs. The vehicle reached a top speed of 109 km / h

With the same body, but more powerful engine, the Sunbeam - Talbot 2 liter was delivered.

In 1948 the model was replaced by the more modern Sunbeam - Talbot 80.
