*************
The Talbot 105 was a high powered sports car developed by Talbot designer Georges Roesch. It was famously fast, described by one authority as the fastest four-seater ever to race at Brooklands.[1]
The car made its first appearance at the London Motor Show in 1926.[1] At this stage it was formally named according to its fiscal and actual horsepower as the Talbot 14-45.[1] The six-cylinder engine displaced a volume of 1,665 cc[1] and was the basis for all Talbot engines until the Rootes takeover in 1935.
The engine was repeatedly bored out further, giving rise to a succession of performance improvements. Throughout these developments, the exterior dimensions of the original 14-45 engine block remained unchanged, however.[1]
The 1930 London Motor Show saw the debut of the 20-70 model, bore and stroke both being increased to give an engine capacity increased to 2,276 cc.[1] In this form the car was later called simply the Talbot 70 or 75.[1] Higher compression ratios and power increases followed.
An increase in the engine capacity, still without any change to the exterior dimensions of the engine block, yielded a cylinder displacement of 2,969 cc for the iconic Talbot 105 model.[1] In 1931 four 105s were tuned to provide a reported 119 bhp, at 4,800 rpm.[1] In ""Brooklands trim"" further tuning and in increased compression ratio of 10:1 gave rise to a claimed 125 bhp.[1]
