Excellent cars, remember reading about these in Autocar when they were launched (& getting told off during a Physics lesson!)

Ferrari engine in a Lancia fantastic! Didn't know about the spoiler being flush with the boot & then rising.

Just googled & found this site dedicated to the 8.32

**** EDIT ****

Just looked at this site in a bit more detail, looks like the place Mercman got his pictures from!

An ugly car that rusts to pieces with an engine you can't afford to get serviced

Imagine what it would cost you just in 'normal' running costs? And then when it decided to go wrong, as it will, quite often!

Lovely car and there's plenty of Lancia specialists around who would be able to service it.

And rust is not an issue - no more so than any other car - in some respects a myth (based on the Mk1 Betas)

Would have liked to have seen more actual pictures of the car rather than library pics. I was considering buying a similar car once - A Maserati Quattroporte V8 Evoluzione which also has input by Ferrari.
