Sunbeam MK3 (Sunbeam Talbot 90) - the rally car loved by Stirling Moss

[@rocketsock4297]

Steph! You look incredible in the color matching dress next to the Sunbeam. What a lovely car and thanks a lot for showing it to us. 👍

[@idriveaclassic]

Thank you SO much for watching ❤️

Keep reviewing these british cars from the 1950s and 60s so many cars from my childhood as a l was a car nut when l was a child

[@idriveaclassic]

Thank you! It’s definitely my favourite era

[@donaldbaillie5224]

Love your channel. The cars you test from the 50,s Are the cars I owned or desired when I started driving in 1962. The main difference in my mind is the improvements in braking in modern cars. Couldn't help smile at the push button start on these cars! Thse days manufacturers highlight this as a feature!

[@idriveaclassic]

Yes, drum brakes are ok but modern brakes to cope with the sloppy standards of modern drivers are most welcome.

Beautiful car and lovely green colour.

[@idriveaclassic]

She was perfect

You're hair is looking really lovely Steph. Really beautiful car. 50s cars are the best. 😊👍

[@idriveaclassic]

Aww thanks! Peter was/is hairdresser to the stars including some big stars of yesteryear. It was such a treat to get my hair done.

This was great to see because my late dad's first car was a Sunbeam Talbot 90 like this. It replaced a Triumph motorbike iirc. He was fed up with having to ride the motorbike in the rain so wanted a car. Late 1950s I think. He was probably sold on the model by Stirling Moss's recommendation. 😆

[@idriveaclassic]

Haha that’s brilliant! Imagine getting something this posh!

[@SBCBears]

Beautiful example of a beautiful car.

[@culturevulture3382]

Nicely done Steph. Your outfit sets off the Sunbeam beautifully.

[@idriveaclassic]

Thank you!

[@michaeltreadwell777]

WOW Steph, what a fabulous example of this car. The condition is brilliant, compared to some I've seen on a famous 'on line' web site ! A luxurious vehicle with power to spare. Thanks Steph for another excellent review - you never cease to amaze us. Take care 🙂

[@idriveaclassic]

Thanks so much Michael xx

The most intriguing thing for me was spotting those cars in American movies.

[@idriveaclassic]

Oohhh which ones

[@paulscountrygarage9180]

[@waltertaljaard1488]

Beautiful classic British car, presented by a beautiful woman. (Who was never ugly to begin with, mind you!)

[@idriveaclassic]

Aw I wouldn’t class myself as beautiful in the slightest but thank you.

[@shaneadams3600]

Lovely car - barely run in. She has years of motoring ahead of her.

[@idriveaclassic]

Oh completely! Peter is such a lovely person, I’m glad she’s living with him.

[@rodden1953]

in the 70s there were 2 of these at a dump i took all the clocks and speedometers from them

[@idriveaclassic]

Glad to know bits lived on.

Continental-set windscreen wipers - designed for export? In the late 1980s, VW produced the Golf mk2 with UK-set wipers - so I bought one . . .

[@idriveaclassic]

I mean ‘export or die’ really was the mindset.
