Great films, from a time when our National Broadcasters truly had a remit to educate. That flute music just tells you straight away that this is education seventies style...
Those Talbot cars that are being made are pretty rare nowadays to say the least. I remember reading an article about the 'howmanyleft' website and reading that Horizons, Alpines, Solaras, Sambas were barely in double figures, and, that there was just one Tagora in the UK! There are a few more Sunbeams (thankfully) but it seems a shame that they've largely disappeared without a trace. I'm not a huge fan or anything, just saddened.
Very interesting. I was car mad as an 8-year old in 1980, and well remember seeing loads of Talbots on the road. Somehow you imagine that they're all still out there somewhere, but, like you say, it's down to a mere handful now.
