The goal of Sunbeam was to rely on one of the most famous Italian ateliers to build an elegant coupé that could compete, for example, with the Lancia Flaminia built from the same… Read More The Italian Job/3: 1964 Sunbeam Venezia by Touring
Obviously this is not the first Sunbeam Tiger that we see for sale, but of all those views is definitely the one we like best. The reasons are various: the Carnival Red paint is very beautiful and fits perfectly with the original hardtop covered with black vinyl and we like very much the tires with… Read More Going to carnival: 1965 Sunbeam Tiger MK1
The seller of this Sunbeam Tiger claims to have bought the car from a dot-com guy in San Francisco some year ago, and that the car is a real survivor.

This is the second Sumbeam venezia we stumble on in three years and that doesn’t astonish us as this car is very rare as 140 were built, and just an handful of these has survived until nowadays. This car, revealed the first time to the press in 1963 in San Marco square in Venezia, Italy, was… Read More The italian job/2: 1964 Sunbeam Venezia by Touring
Here it is a rare car made upon an anglo-italian connection. It’s not the first time we see such hybrids, but generally only top-end cars were commissioned to the italian masters of Touring (one for all: the AM DB4 GT by Zagato). This is a rare exception to such rule. This car was made from… Read More Montecarlo night blue: 1964 Sunbeam Venezia by Touring
