This is a 1952 Sunbeam Talbot 90, which may not look a particularly sporting car but it had considerable success in rallying in the 1950s, Stirling Moss taking second place in the 1952 Monte Carlo Rally in a Sunbeam Talbot 90 Saloon. He is also one of only three people to have won a Coupe d'Or in the Alpine Rally for finishing unpenalized in three successive years (1952, 1953 & 1954), each time driving a Sunbeam Talbot.
This is a replica of the AC Cobra of the 1960s. Carroll Shelby's AC Cobra was produced from 1962 to 1967 but since then a variety of replica models have been made and since the late 1980s Shelby Automobiles Inc have produced what are known as 'Continuation Cars'.
The TVR Engineering company was formed in Blackpool by Trevor Wilkinson in the late 1940s and has subsequently produced a large number of different sports car models, the above being a TVR 3000S from 1978.
The Aston Martin DB7 was produced from 1994 to 2004 and this is a 1995 model.
