The Plus
The modest Simca 1100 had a significant impact on the motor industry. It offered thousands of families an affordable means of transport that incorporated a host of modern features, including disc brakes, transverse engines, independent suspension and rack-and-pinion steering. It is often cited as the car that tempted Volkswagen away from rear-engined, air-cooled designs, prompting the development of the Golf and Polo.
Here we have a 1977 1100 TI, in a wonderfully original and well-preserved version. The vendor acquired this first-rate example about three years ago out of nostalgia, as his father worked at the time at the Talbot factory in La Rochelle, where these cars were made. Since then, it has benefited from a great deal of mechanical maintenance and, although there are a few things left to do, it represents an excellent opportunity for anyone looking for an original and rare example.

If an auction vehicle doesn't sell, it may be converted into a “Make an offer” listing. This will retain all of the details of the auction listing but replace the bidding functionality with an offering system whereby potential buyers can make an offer on the vehicle. To take the hassle out of the whole process and to prevent any unnecessary squabbling we'll automatically decline anything less than 70% of the asking price so only offers that are worth considering will be accepted. Make an offer listings include a “Make an offer” button. Simply click on this and enter the amount you’d like to offer and the seller will either accept, decline or counter. Easy peasy. If you don’t have a Car & Classic account with a registered bank card you’ll be prompted to set one up at this point.
If your offer is accepted, you’ll be charged a service fee. The amount depends on the cost of the vehicle and is an additional cost on top of the offer amount. Starting from as little as £/€300, it covers the cost of our various auction and escrow services, but rest assured, we're not in the woollen eyewear business and so the exact amount is always displayed upfront before you place your bid. You will only be charged if your offer is accepted.
The service fee is a charge in addition to any accepted offer amount that varies depending on the cost of the vehicle. Starting from as little as £/€300, the exact fee is clearly displayed upfront before any offer is placed so you always know exactly how much you'll be charged. It covers the cost of our various auction and escrow services and allows us to continue to provide a secure and professional platform from which to transact safely.
If you've ever squeezed a lemon then this'll be a doddle. Firstly you'll need to be logged in to your Car & Classic account and have added a valid payment card to your profile. Once these steps have been completed you can then make an offer by clicking on the "Make an offer" button on the listing page and entering your offer amount before clicking on the “Submit Offer” button underneath.
