Before being taken over by Chrysler in 1970, the English brand Sunbeam belonged to the Rootes group which also incorporated Singer, Hillman and Humber. This small roadster, reproduced here by Lansdowne Models (a Brooklin label), was launched in 1959 under the name Alpine. Renamed 260 Tiger, it got rid of the 4-cylinder of the Hillman Minx and replaced it with a Ford 4.3-litre V8 (164 hp).
