Additional Notes
- The Talbot Sunbeam 1.0 carries a cooling system capacity of 4.5 liters, which is notably smaller than the figures listed for the larger-engined variants in the same lineup.
- The 1.3 and 1.6 share an identical cooling system capacity of 7.3 liters, as does the 1600 Ti, placing all three at the same fill volume despite differences in engine displacement and configuration.
- The Sunbeam Lotus is specified at 5.7 liters, a figure that sits between the 1.0's 4.5 liters and the 7.3 liters common to the 1.3, 1.6, and 1600 Ti variants.
- A check interval of 7,500 km applies uniformly across all five configurations listed, from the 1.0 through to the Lotus, all under normal use conditions.
- The 1600 Ti coverage begins in 1978, one year earlier than the 1.0, 1.3, 1.6, and Lotus variants, which are each listed from 1979 onward.
- All five configurations share the same end year of 1981, meaning the full span of the 1600 Ti runs 1978-1981 while the remaining four cover 1979-1981.
