Mk5 door handles - from which car?

Post by PAW »

I know that I have seen these million times on "a car", but cannot get my head around from which car they are originally from?

Mine are pretty pitted and would like to look for pristine one if I only knew ;-)

I know that I will soon say - "Dam, of course"

Hillman avenger originally then found their way on to other cars, i have a pair on my Jensen Healey.
They come up NOS on ebay quite often at very reasonable money.

Yes! Great, thanks! It now comes back to me - it was my grandfathers Talbot where I should have remembered these :oops:

There is currently only 5 NOS units for sale on eBay just under Hillman Avenger, so not really the most unique part :roll:

Surely more under Jensen Healey Lotus Talbot Chrysler Talbot ...

I think our Mk 7 has Marina handles. It also has the cutout in the B post for the hidden latch..... :roll:

I used Lancia Beta units on the Mk 4....which look very similar.
