That's such great news. I remember a lad in the village I grew up in in the early 80s having one of these. He drove it as though he stole it. Can't wait to see more of it
Well played. I had a feeling you’d end up with something like this. And that closing comment about being owners and buying these things is exactly why I like this channel. Keep it up.
Lad down our end (South Leeds) had one of these when I was a kid in the early 80`s. When I say lad it was his dads. I once remember him flying round our estate a (a circular estate) a huge sweeping corners in the snow, the arse end gracefully sliding........oh the memories. You’ve just brought them all back....
Fantastic; had a feeling you would make the purchase! Congrats and bloody looking forward to watching the videos about that cracking little car. Cheers, Rich
Thanks for the upload! I bought a Red Talbot Sunbeam in the early nineties with a 2.0 SOHC Ford Pinto fitted in it.. Was awesome apart from the Weller wheels!
I’ve not watched it all yet but I’m betting you’ve bought it! I thought you might having watched the previous video featuring it. Back in the day it was simply known as the ‘Lotus Sunbeam’
I love this car. When I was 18 many years ago I had a racing green Talbot Horizon that that I made into a feeble lotus lookalike. It had a silver stripe and 4 spoke revolution wheels. I’m so glad you bought this they are as rare as hens teeth and what amazing condition that car is in 😍
Talbot made a group B Horizon to compete from 1981. Things didn't go well though and the project was shelved. To be honest if I had some spare time I would consider building one as a project car to the group B spec. rallygroupbshrine.org/the-group-b-cars/group-b-prototypes/talbot-horizon/
Love it. Class buy guys! How refreshing to see an automotive RUclips channel buy a car because of the heart, be able to afford it, will drive the thing and won't flip it after 10 minutes. You were like two boys 😂 How cool!
I remember in the 80s, a mate bought one of these and took me out in it. "HOLY CRAP!" ( The fastest car i'd been in up until that point was a XR3i LOL)
I'm racking my tiny brain to remember the 2nd name of my mate Dave that had one of these from new. He had a total love/hate relationship with it. When the carbs were set up right it was superb and untouchable around the streets of Newcastle city centre. I thought I was top of the tree in my 924 Turbo but I couldn't catch him. We lost touch around '85, I wonder if he still has it? What a motor. 10/10 for this one lads!
Awesome news! Always remember going with my father to take one out on a test drive when they first came out 40yrs ago! Looking forward to seeing your further exploits with the car! 👍👍👍
Owned one back in the 80s and bought one in 2008 and still loved it. Fabulous wolf in sheep's clothing. Big fan of Russel Brooks too from early beginnings in a mini on Epynt one boxing day in the 1960s and saw him several times on the IOM RAC etc. Fabulous car fabulous driver.
Brilliant. I can’t wait to see the Sunbeam again in future videos. It’s looks like so much fun and the buzz you guys got from it was superb.....glad she has gone to a good home and will get some use and not stored away never used 👍😀
Glad to see an extended video of the lotus sunbeam and then to be told Jason has bought it, well done, wise choice, this will be more raw fun than most of your collection
Well done Jason being 54 i am fortunate to have driven one when my Mothers Talbot Ranchero was having a new gearbox and the dealer principal gave her the Lotus for two weeks ...compared very well with Golf mk1 GT1 and the Ranchero was so far ahead of its time 🤔
It obviously was not a courtesy car...our business ran a number of cars and we had so many issues the dealer principal was trying to pacify us by not giving me a Samba
Amazing rims! I have to admit I never ever heard about the Talbot Sunbeams Lotus... I can only imagine how raw the driving feeling must be! Congratulations to the new addition!
I’m so pleased you guys have bought this car,I loved them in period, and love them to this day. I remember watching Russell brooks wrestling with one, and the sound, oh my god! Well done to you both.
There it is!!! I was waiting since the last Video there for the drive! Great Video! Thank you for the entertainment in those days! Keep it up and stay healthy meanwhile!
Great video. I fondly remember driving one many years ago. It was absolutely thrilling and there’s no doubt you’re both gonna have a ball with this little investment.
@@TomAlter1000First batch had 150 BHP and the later models received 160 BHP. It was miles faster than the poor 8v Escort RS 2000, quicker than the 2.3 litre Chevette HSR (which must have been a beast) which shared the same 907 type slant engine originally developed by Vauxhall before Lotus got their hands on it. I'm a Coventry boy so this car story is very close to my Rootes! See what I did there lo!!
Back in the late 70's my parents had a close family friend who was an engineer working with Lotus at the time. One weekend he came over with the works development car. He took my dad and I for a spin - he didnt hold back! Let's just say its the fastest I had ever been from my home in Romford to Southend- on-Sea upto that point and since! A few years later he did some work in Northern Island for the Delorean Motor Company, sadly I didn't get the opportunity to go for a ride in one!
Just noticed no safety harness after change over - glad you guys didn't exuberantly fly off the track into a tree !! Great content as always and congrats Jason.
Absolutely brilliant!! Well done guys, Im so pleased for you. After seeing your reactions in the first episode, it would have been a shame for you to not have it. I look forward to more goings on in the sunbeam :-)
Congratulations! As soon as I saw the first video, I started looking for ways to get this thing into California. As you can imagine it proved a bit harder than expected. Enjoy her!
Probably the happiest I have seen you both in a car - and it's one of your cheapest! There is hope for us all... Keep the videos coming even if they are just you guys talking about cars. It helps keep us all sane in these strange times.
What a great looking car. Remember these in the early 1980s when I was a kid. Gave the Escorts a run for their money. Nice tribute to Russell Brooks, thx.
Fantastic, enjoy the new Car Guys! I’m also of a vintage that I remember Talbot Sunbeam Horizon when they were on the roads. They were a beautiful and purposeful looking car. This version brings it to another level. Can’t wait to see the future videos.
Best video yet and a good news story during this time of uncertainty....fabulous car, the older car these days give you the best feeling.... I have a similar spec MK2 escort, heavily modified rally spec road car, the sound, noise, feel and enjoyment are unbeatable to a modern car....really looking forward to these videos when they are released.....
Very enjoyable video guys. Looks hard work to drive but great fun . What a machine, lots of respect for the old school rally drivers with no driver aids etc. Chuffed for Jason, brilliant news ! Keep up the good work gents. Andy.
Oh my...it is the same! This was the first car that I drive when I was 16. It was awesome!!! I could burn rubber popping the clutch in 2nd gear. I treated this car horribly but it was so much fun! Unfortunately .....it really had problems, ball joints exploded...headlights became loose.....windows literally fell out the door frame.
I remember these new back in early 80 when I was in BAOR with the Army, one of the officers had one and it was a great drive. We all had RS Escorts, Golf GTIs Opel Mantas at al great times.
Good choice mate, I was thinking of one of these over a similar year model Alfa. The Alfas have gone up recently and I saw one of these at an affordable price and thought about it. I remember when they first came out, I was working at a Fiat dealership and the 131 miafiori came out, what a bonkers car that was. You are right, not many made the open market and they were quite expensive too.
Hurrah hurrah hurrah fantastic how great to see this. An how refreshing rather than all of the super computer controlled cars of today. Many congratulations
My very first car in 1988 was a fully striped out rally preped talbot sunbeam,white with a blue stripe, it had plenty lombard rally sticker s from competing in different stagess,fiber glass wings,bonnet, twin 40 delorto 45s,petrol drinker, loud af exhaust, spare wheel was the backseat,full rollcage,starting procedure, fuel pump, electrics before turning the key,started getting fed up of harnesses.
You lucky bast**ds I owned a 240bhp rally prep lotus sunbeam in the 80s along with a mark 1 escort twin cam I still smile thinking about the sunbeam !!!!!
Jason... Top marks mate... Really understand why you bought the Talbot Sunbeam Lotus. We never got that model here in NZ, but, I was very fortunate to go for a ride in a Peugeot 205 T16 Group B car. At that time, it was the most manic (scary) and exhilarating experience I’d had in any car. Sprinting and drifting on gravel/dirt roads at 100-120kph and in excess of 160khp on a couple of straight stretches was mind blowing. It was my first ever ride in a full blown racing rally car and when it was over I got out with the biggest smile, along with quivering arms and legs, after having the living daylights scared out of me... I suspect your Talbot Sunbeam Lotus brings back similar memories, whilst still delivering a sensational drive experience. Great purchase... Excellent video guys... Thank you. It’s this type of genuine and honest entertainment that makes the global lockdown for COVID19 more bearable...
Best move in the right direction, new cars suck just now. I love that the right watch to go with the Talbot is probably a casio with a calculator!? But it made you two mad old twats beam with real sheer delight! For the price of a of a watch? What a riot that little old race car is gonna be! I'd walk past the pista or your Balboni to get to the Lotus Talbot any day. Mad.
Back in the early 80’s my dad took me to his friends house who had one of these I’m sure it was silver with a black stripe I will always remember it because the number plate was LOT 1S, the guy who owned it always said it was a future classic and didn’t drive it
Haha , your faces were like two teenagers having discovered a stash of jazz mags behind the bike sheds , loved it. This is the thing with old classic cars and twin webers, something that new compromised and sanitised modern cars no longer have , as mentioned rarity assured and try find another one .👏👏👍👍
Congratulations on getting the Sunbeam. It's a really special car and you got one of the very best out there. I've known the car and former owner for many years and hope to see it around again at SLOC events when all the madness calms down. Oh make sure you bring the cameras along to film it😃
You can count on us being at a few SLOC events and we always have the camera running 😀 we know how amazing this car is and are so very pleased to be the new custodians.
That's great, real congrats guys. My question to you if having not bought the car would of been - for men who buy/own alot of cars, what on earth does the criteria have to be to take that step of getting the cheque out. Never have I seen two mens man veg been gripped so hard by a car. The right decision has been made. 👏👏
Congratulations fellas. What a car, does driving get any better than this? The fact it's road legal is mental. Delighted that it's coming to the channel.👏 Fantastic video.
Yes!!! I’ve never been more excited about a RUclips car purchase! Please do a ‘just the noise’ like TheSmokingTyre does of you guys applying liberal amounts of beanage to that car
Brilliant!!! So glad you managed to get it and can't wait to see further content on one of my all time hero cars. Enjoy the car...so envious and really pleased it's gone to genuine petrolheads that will actually use it. Keep the videos coming.
That's such great news. I remember a lad in the village I grew up in in the early 80s having one of these. He drove it as though he stole it. Can't wait to see more of it
Congrats on the purchase. We'll look forward to seeing more of this in the future.
Lots more content to come on this for sure
Brilliant! Pure unadulterated joy on both your faces. A proper car! 👍
Nice one! love the Russell Brookes tribute. Thanks Guys..
Had to be done
Glad Jason bought it. The smiles on your faces from the first video, if you hadn’t bought it I’d have been disappointed! 😉
As a Sunbeam lotus owner , I know exactly how the cars magic gets you.
I want one. Remember reading the roadtest back in the day. I think the headline was 'claws'. Proper car.
Well played. I had a feeling you’d end up with something like this. And that closing comment about being owners and buying these things is exactly why I like this channel. Keep it up.
Thanks, Rico
pro trick: you can watch series on Kaldrostream. I've been using it for watching a lot of movies during the lockdown.
@Kaysen Jaxon yea, I have been using Kaldrostream for since december myself :)
@Kaysen Jaxon yea, I've been using KaldroStream for years myself :D
Wonderful. A pal bought one when we were 18-year-olds. Did all the mods and drove it ‘sensibly’. I’ll never forget that bare-bones acceleration!
(And the engine note!)
Lad down our end (South Leeds) had one of these when I was a kid in the early 80`s. When I say lad it was his dads.

Thank you so much 👍👍
Congrats with the purchase.
I've owned and raced my sunbeam for about seven years now, and it just never gets boring at all.
Amazing. Can't believe you managed to show such a vintage rarity. Thanks.

Perfect end to the vid well done gents
👍👍👍

Nice! So glad that Jason got that Sunbeam, it's a beautiful car. I look forward to hopefully seeing it belting round the country lanes in Essex!
I can’t wait till the lockdown is over so I can take it out
Glad to see an extended video of the lotus sunbeam and then to be told Jason has bought it, well done, wise choice, this will be more raw fun than most of your collection
You’re right 👍👍

Who's Russel Brooks? Shame on you. What a pair of utter muppets.
Great video. I fondly remember driving one many years ago. It was absolutely thrilling and there’s no doubt you’re both gonna have a ball with this little investment.
Bring it up to meet the Mini? 👍
TheCarGuys.TV Now that’s a mighty fine idea😂 The sound of that Lotus engine ripping through the Scottish Borders.
Original engine was 2.2 straight out of the Lotus Esprit! You quoted 2.1....

I need this car in my life. My first car was a 1986 Plymouth Horizon, so the styling similarities endear this car to me even more.
Well done...and thrilling to watch love bloom! Stay safe- can’t wait to see her soon!

JayEmm on Cars wouldn’t like to see the stripped out racing version😉
Congratulations guys! This was a dream car back in the rally days!!
So glad you bought it. Looking forward to seeing you 2 going sideways and grinning ear to ear.

That’s fantastic! What a wonderful car to add to the channel 👍 I’ll look forward to seeing it out and about in Essex!
Oh you will 👍
Just noticed no safety harness after change over - glad you guys didn't exuberantly fly off the track into a tree !! Great content as always and congrats Jason.
You know what separates men from boys? The prices of their toys! Jason's grin from ear to ear is priceless! Congratulations on that car!
Thanks 👍👍
Honestly, I haven’t had that much fun in a car for a very long time
Absolutely brilliant!! Well done guys, Im so pleased for you. After seeing your reactions in the first episode, it would have been a shame for you to not have it. I look forward to more goings on in the sunbeam :-)
Congratulations! As soon as I saw the first video, I started looking for ways to get this thing into California. As you can imagine it proved a bit harder than expected. Enjoy her!
We will 👍
Wonderful. Well done guys. What a great way to celebrate when we're free again.

Amazing! Great to see a range of cars unlike the other bore channels. Cracking job!!
Car Guys buy awesome car shocker. There was only one way this was ever going to end. Nice work chaps. Hopefully Jason has since cleaned himself up.
Brilliant as always RIP Russell Brooks 👍👍
So truth behold, with a garage collection worth probably £2m plus you spend £29k and now have the best car of the lot. Well done lads
Good choice mate, I was thinking of one of these over a similar year model Alfa. The Alfas have gone up recently and I saw one of these at an affordable price and thought about it.

My mate wanted LOT11S for his Espirit back in the early 90's, it was available- £17k, a lot of money back then.
Haha , your faces were like two teenagers having discovered a stash of jazz mags behind the bike sheds , loved it. This is the thing with old classic cars and twin webers, something that new compromised and sanitised modern cars no longer have , as mentioned rarity assured and try find another one .👏👏👍👍
Congratulations Jason. What a car!
Fantastic news.
Just shows how much fun you can have with " little bhp and little weight"
Just need matching helmets and an intercom.
Congratulations on getting the Sunbeam. It's a really special car and you got one of the very best out there. I've known the car and former owner for many years and hope to see it around again at SLOC events when all the madness calms down. Oh make sure you bring the cameras along to film it😃

Thanks, Roger - means a lot 👍
Good choice. Going by the amount of smiles, it’s worth every Penny 👍
👍👍
Awesome purchase Jason. I was hoping you guys would buy it with last weeks video.
Damian needs to get Sam from Seen Through Glass on the channel to drive this, especially after Sam went a bit rally car nuts.
Sam always has an open invitation, as he was the only established YTuber to help us in the early years. Him and Hampshire Photography
@@TheCarGuysTV fantastic. I look forward to that video!
I had one , of course I loved it , sadly marriage came along and it had to go , nothing has been as exciting ever since ..
