Please excuse my ignorance on this subject.
While leafing thru some old magazines, I came across an article on the
"Sunbeam Lotus". This front engine, rear wheel drive, 2-door sedan was
featured in the Winter 1980 issue of "Motor Trend's Sports Car Graphic No.
4". This car apparently not built for U.S. consumption, was suppose to have
1500 units produced prior to Sunbeam being sold to Peugeot. According to the
article the project was to be completed to help boost Sunbeam's image.
What happened when Peugeot bought Chrysler's European Operation? Did or is
Sunbeam still in operation? To date my interests have been with cars
produced during the 60's. My wife and I have owned a couple of Series V
Alpines and a '66 Imp which served us well for several years.
Any input would be appreciated. Books published on the subject or magazine
articles.
