Keirant - the Alpine Mk1 photo seems to have disappeared so I re-added it. If you want to change the image size to match the image above it of the Sunbean Talbot Saloon please feel free to do so. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Nqtraderman (talk • contribs)

Hmm, sorry about that. Wasn't intended. There's something funny going on today with those pics — I'm seeing them some times but not every time I view the page. Hopefully they'll settle down. With regard to the size, it's perfect as it is. The point of changing that was that it's (arguably, but recommended by the Manual of Style) better to not specify a thumbnail size, because then the user's preferences determine what size they like, and what size they think is best for their screen-size. – Kieran T (talk) 14:56, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] r34

the R34 used Sunbeam Maori's. GraemeLeggett 07:11, 23 October 2005 (UTC)

Giving Coatelen credit for the design of every single car during his period would be incorrect. He wasn't the only engineer for Sunbeam. In fact you can be certain he was not the only person responsible for Sunbeam's success (not least because a few features were taken from the famous Peugeot L76) because he spent most of the time as a manager. Coatelan's main influence was felt by his desire to see the marque race. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.241.212.45 (talk) 14:04, 3 January 2008 (UTC)
