This charming Talbot Saloon is displayed in charming yet contrasting condition, the exterior shows beautiful signs of patina and the engine (fresh from a rebuild) runs silently and effortlessly.

As the bills show an eye watering amount has been spent rebuilding the engine and going through the car mechanically by Vintage Bentley specialist VBE restorations. As a result of their work, you are left with a truly remarkable driving car, a real delight on the road.

All credit however can not be given to VBE, but instead to the previous owners who have clearly cared for her to the highest of standards, there are even invoices dating from the 70’s and as recently as 2012 from the late specialist A. Archer who was always known for his attention to detail and Talbot knowledge.

The exterior Saloon coachwork is finished beautifully in a deep shade of Green with Black wings and a fabric roof, to the front there is a total of 6 lamps, all mounted from a well designed headlight bar. All brightwork is in great condition giving of a deep shine and breaking up the darker colored coachwork.

HY8949 Has been heavily document throughout the years, with many magazine articles including a front cover and 8 page spread in the ‘Vintage Roadcar’ 2015 issue.

Aesthetically a beautiful car and to drive she is truly superb, in our showroom and ready for viewing.
