David Wilkins<p>Today, after Projet 900, another milestone on Renault’s journey towards a new practical vehicle type, in the form of the 1981 Matra P18 prototype, displayed here at <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/Retromobile" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Retromobile</span></a> Paris in 2014. Peugeot, the new parent of Matra’s original partner in the project, Chrysler Europe, decided not to proceed with production, and the P18 instead went to Renault, where it became the Espace. If only Talbot had been able to sell this instead of the Tagora.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/Renault" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Renault</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/Matra" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Matra</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/WeirdCarMastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WeirdCarMastodon</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/davidsdailycar" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>davidsdailycar</span></a></p>
David Wilkins<p>The 1977 Chrysler (later Talbot) Sunbeam was basically a reskinned&nbsp;short-wheelbase Hillman Avenger. But its 'opening rear window' style hatch was copied from&nbsp;the Imp, which also donated the Sunbeam's 928cc entry-level engine. At the other end of the range, the much more powerful Talbot Sunbeam Lotus, snapped here at <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/Retromobile" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Retromobile</span></a> Paris in 2014, was a competition success, winning the 1980 RAC Rally and the 1981 World Rally Championship.

David Wilkins<p>Do not adjust your set - this is not a re-post. Yesterday’s green Renault 16 was the TL model, the mainstay of the R16 line-up but today we’re looking at the ‘loaded’ top-of-the-range TX, introduced in 1973 and seen here at <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/Retromobile" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Retromobile</span></a> Paris in 2018. Note the double headlamps and discreet rear spoiler above the hatch. With its slightly larger engine and five-speed gearbox, the TX was just the thing for cruising the expanding French autoroute network.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/Renault" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Renault</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/WeirdCarMastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WeirdCarMastodon</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/davidsdailycar" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>davidsdailycar</span></a></p>
David Wilkins<p>The standard Citroën SM was a two-door car but in the early seventies, the coach builder Chapron created a small number of this four-door Opéra model. Utterly gorgeous.

David Wilkins<p>Today, we’re blasting away the cobwebs of Unexceptionality again with another super-exotic top Mercedes. This is the W196 R ‘Stromlinie’ (streamline) race car from 1954, a type in which Fangio won the French Grand Prix that year. The smooth enclosed bodywork was optimised for circuits with high-speed straights. The most notable technical feature was probably the straight-eight engine.
