1932 Talbot AV105 Fox and Nicholl Tourer

This car is an early racer with an extensive pedigree. During the 1930s, the British Talbot racing team campaigned under the 'Fox and Nicholl' banner, and in 1932, it entered the Alpine Trial - a six-day, 1625-mile odyssey across Europe. Fox and Nichol entered three cars bodied by Vanden Plas, each a four-seater tourer with a special competition dashboard. This AV105 was one of the team cars that won the coveted 'Coupe des Alpes,' bringing the trophy home to Britain for the first time. Subsequently, it went on to race in the Flying Scotsman, the Mille Miglia twice, and the Liege-Rome-Liege seven times. A well-traveled racer, this 1932 four-seater tourer is considered one of the most original Talbot team cars in existence today.
