Lancia

Lancia are returning to the UK in the near future - just one car, and then more as new models are rolled out. Not sure when the first one goes on sale.

I hope their wheels are still 4 stud with a 98 PCD

Pah! - is that all you can think about... I hope they still bring out evil fire-breathing rally legends! somehow i doubt that will be the case... as the new Delta isn't very inspiring looking from the pictures that I have seen but the new Fulvia does look very nice!

Ah Jim - come on now - where is your faith in Lancia...? :lol: The integrale is due out in 2010 after the new delta in 2008 - I have faith - I do believe and might even buy a new integrale if the car amounts to something.... in 2010 - better start saving now so :lol: :twisted:
Cheers,
Paul.

p.s. - check out carmagazine.co.uk I think and look up lancia in the search box for details on the new integrale.

If you buy the new one Paul - I do hope you have more luck with reliability than your current 'Grales...!
(probably just given my own Evo the kiss of death now, knowing my luck the engine will go 'pop' tomorrow after nearly 3 years of trouble free motoring!)
Might be interested in buying a new Integrale if/when they come out IF they can improve on the styling of the prototypes Ive seen so far... but whatever happens theres no way Im selling my current Evo, I just can't see the evocative (no pun intended!) design being bettered....

AAAgh - you've just jinxed it now... :lol:
Anyway, I have a theory on this one - If I buy an integrale new and look after it myself, then I have much more to gain and could hopefully keep the car more reliable than if I bought it second hand off some eejit that thrashed the living daylights out of it.
Might be an idea to see what the residuals will be like on it first though.......?
Cheers,
Paul.

p.s - Yeah it would be nice to have better reliablility on the 'grale but sure what the hell - the more unreliable it is - the less I use it anyway - its a vicious circle!
