Georges Roesch's masterpiece for Clement-Talbot of London: a 3-litre six-cylinder car launched in 1931 that was quiet, quick and very hard to break. Team cars ran with great success at Brooklands, at Le Mans and in the Alpine Trial, and the 105 is counted among the best British sporting cars of the 1930s.
