Talbot Tagora

So who has one of these beasties then? I think I inadvertantly annoyed one chap on here on another thread when a certain yellow car was mentioned. The Tagora probably gets my top spot on the want list equal probably to a Saph Cosworth. Now there's a contrast of cars!

I don't know why they didn't just post the yellow one on here. Someone would have saved it.

I suspected as much. He was here a while back but we didn't get to meet up as he was over on the east side and I'm in the (wild) west.

If you look closely at the car under the pile - its a Solara not a Tagora ...though you,d be hard pressed to tell squashed under that lot!! :)

I remember as a young lad going to a local scrapyard and seeing a lime green metallic Tagora,and taking a instant liking to the car - something about it stood out;maybe the colour or the front styling,but I really did like it.Thats probably the only one I've ever seen

I once went to a Jobs fair in Westminster, and met up with a chap I knew from college. I was ready to leave early to get my train home to Slough, but he offered me a lift in his Dad's Silver Tagora..... what a gent! A thoroughly immemorable drive home. All I need to do now is get a go in a Trevi.

Google - define:immemorable :o

 

 

This was about 1983/4. I have slept since then. Therefore some slightly more important things have happened, and a ride in a Talbot has slipped out of my head. I remember it happening, just not the details. I was 18 back then. I don't have a huge memory, remember, computers only had 1K back then. My brain is similar. To quote Homer Simpson. Every time I learn new stuff, old stuff falls out.

Yeah I do forget it was just a car back then. Plenty of Vectras and stuff I've forgot instantly :)

Certainly, that'll take me about 3 minutes with hand snips, assuming I can find the actual yard! :lol:

The 28DL croud are well known for taking more than pictures.

Whoa, hold on there - is this going to get bought by a banger racer and sent to its death then? :shock::shock::shock::cry:

 

I'm having that bad boy looked at in the morning.

 

What's the word on this TSX? Are you going to rescue it? I'm not particularly after one of these but as a last resort I'll buy and store it rather than watch some meathead smash it up (and no I don't want to get into AS's bimonthly slanging match about the merits of banger racing)

I can't imagine a Tagora being all that tough out on the oval, especially a rotten one.
