BeanBandit ◊ 2006-05-19 00:38	Talbot 180.
Dj_Sergio ◊ 2006-05-19 00:38	Chrysler 160
wickey ◊ 2006-05-19 13:50	Yes I also think about Chrysler 180. The difference between them was only in badging and Chrysler is more common
DIEHARD ◊ 2006-05-19 19:38	I would agree on a Chrysler 180
BeanBandit ◊ 2006-05-19 19:40	Look at the small picture, it clearly says "Talbot" on left side of the boot lid.
DIEHARD ◊ 2006-05-19 20:15	BeanBandit wrote Look at the small picture, it clearly says "Talbot" on left side of the boot lid. Yes, you're absolutely right. Although I think they where sold very short time as Talbot, don't you think so?
sixcyl ◊ 2006-05-19 20:21	In Spain, it might be had been named Talbot since 1978 when Peugeot took Chrysler europe, but if I don't mistake, I'd say the french 160 et 180 have never been named as Talbot ? and didn't they stop production for France market at this period (1978)?

I don't remember any Talbots of this type in Holland too, I also don't remember it being in brochures from the early 1980's. I think the Solara was in the same market and that was alreay for sale here. But it could well be the name remained Talbot in some countries, so actually this is a good find!

Les monogrammes de carrosserie affichent la marque "Talbot". So they did have it in France, but only for two years and I can imagine they didn't sell much of them, as it was taken out of production in 1980..... As for this car it has to be a 1979 or 1980 model.

Pas si mal, les vendeurs touchaient une prime commerciale importante pour se "débarrasser" de ce modèle dont personne n'aurait voulu autrement: ça aide à vendre!

Weasel1984 ◊ 2011-04-18 22:45	As Talbot for model year 1980, in brochure for 1979 it was still Chrysler in Spain. Anyway in Ibiza it will be a 180 (or Diesel) -- Last edit: 2011-04-18 22:54:39
dsl ◊ 2011-04-18 23:16	For info (from wiki) ... [spring 1981, when Tagora announced] "the production of petrol-engine Talbot 1610 stopped at the Barreriros plant, but diesel versions continued under the Talbot badge until 1982 for the Spanish market." So agree Talbot and probably diesel. The only question for me is whether the name continued from "Chrysler Diesel" to Talbot Diesel or reverted to 180. My guess is Talbot Diesel is more sensible and could match the rear badges in the thumb, but I have no evidence - none of the websites we are both checking gives a definite name for this final diesel version.
Weasel1984 ◊ 2011-04-18 23:28	We both also forget to check, that some Talbots Diesels are already listed (need to be linked with others by 949) In 1980 brochure on "pentastar" is mentioned justs as Diesel. On the other hand the "2l Automatico" is just Automatico there. Edit. Done. -- Last edit: 2011-04-18 23:32:38
dsl ◊ 2011-04-19 00:16	It's fun inventing a name and then discovering it exists as predicted/hoped. I assume all Chrysler/Talbot Diesels are and will be Spanish-based cars - no diesel [949] was ever sold in UK and I have not found details of French availability.
Ingo ◊ 2011-04-19 14:15	In West Germany was no Diesel-version sold, too. Probably in Czechoslovakia either (as I've read recently, it was, though COMECON-times) one of the biggest export market for the Chrysler 180. Btw.: Was there any export of the Spanish made versions?
dsl ◊ 2011-04-19 15:18	ingo wrote Was there any export of the Spanish made versions? Yes - Spanish assembly started 1975, and all [949] production was transferred from Poissy during 75-76 (the exact end date for French production is not yet known). So all Summer 76 onwards [949] cars are Spanish-built across all European markets; the usual claim for identifying them is that only Spanish-made cars had indicator repeaters on the front wing sides; for UK sales this dates to August 76 onwards.
