Talbot - Talbot Horizon
The Talbot Horizon launched in 1978 after the Paugeot takeover was marketed on the European mainland as the Simca Horizon and in the USA as the Chrysler Horizon, the model that took over from the Hillman Avenger - all quite a complex marketing scenario. These cars were fitted with the Simca 1,100, 1,300 and 1,500cc engines, with a 1.9 litre diesel being added to the range later.
Tyre size for the Talbot Horizon LS, Horizon GL and Horizon GLS was 145R13, while tyre size for the Talbot Horizon SX was the slightly larger 155R13. Blockley produces superb examples of both these tyre sizes - see full details at the links below:
