1987 Lancia Delta S4 stradale VERY RARE OPPORTUNITY on eBay (end time 05-Apr-11 13:43:29 BST)

Well, it's a collector's car... and I have no garage, so won't be collecting any cars!

But it's really very nice.

For the record, I drive a brand new Lancia Delta 1600 HF Turbo once... but I guess it is not the same

 

[d w124]

Yes it nice but I`d buy a house for that money

 

[clk208]

£150,000??? WTF?!

Each to his own, but sort of reminds me of a souped up Nova Whatever the heritage/pedigree they can keep it for that money.

Bugger the house, you can get a nice tent for £25

Philistine!

But at that price you could buy a ferrari or an aston new not a very old lancia no matter how collectable it is.............

A 600 grosser costs less than half that and looks much better

And the old Lancia will be fantastically reliable and won't give a minute's trouble !

If I wanted to buy a competition Lancia of that era it would have to be a type 037. Lancia 037 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia At least then you would purchase a car that looks as if it goes fast.

Whether any car is worth that sort of money is a moot point, but as long as it's not over inflated in price then it is a reasonable buy.

I've recently seen an advert for a much tattier Citroen BX for £100k

One off rally cars will command high values. I wouldn't mind one as a play thing.

It does look as if it goes fast. The speedo reads 20kmh when standing still.

Anyone notice how much the rear tyre edge is worn?

 

[EDZ649]

I think I'd be wanting a few more horses for £150k

 

[grober]

In their E BAY "item specifics" They say its RHD ---oops!
All the tyres [ fronts also ] appear very worn on the edges. The road cars were among the first to be equipped with asymmetric tread Pirellis so maybe that's something to do with it? Like all these space frame "rally specials" I reckon these cars were pretty lethal in a major crash as Toivonen and co-driver Sergio Cresto found out to their cost on the 1986 Tour de Corse.

I understand the history of this car, but that price has quite literally been plucked out of the air.
If there is someone out there insane enough to pay that sort of money for that sort of car, then fair play.

 

[C240Sport97]

£150k sounds very optimistic

 

[E CLASS]

£150k asked and they provide a couple of average pics and 40 or so words - no effort applied whatsoever.

That car will sit and sit at that price.

The ebay seller is being over ambitious methinks

 

[Mr E]

It's not an Integrale, it's an S4. There are a few around in Europe for around €150-160k, and a recent sale at abour €160k, so it's not far of the current market price.

 

[BTB 500]

That's a (de-tuned) road car though, rather than the rally version? Would anyone really pay £150k for that
