Mike C. Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 Gusto, who used to frequent here, is thinking of selling his lovely Fulvia. He's interested in a classic Porsche, but would need to part with the HF, and wants to gauge interest. Details are: - Lancia Fulvia 1.6HF - 1972 - RHD - 74,000 mls - Super, original condition (ex-South Africa) - Full and interesting history - Red with black interior, HF and period decals - Prep'd by Omicron - the leading classic Lancia specialists - Guide price c.£19,995 Really pretty and fun to drive. Surely better than the building society contact gus@jacaranda.co.uk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

irrotational Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 I saw one at a car show the other day and would love one...but 20k *eek* I'm sure that's what they cost, given rarity etc but sadly no way I could ever justify one ☹️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super_Rich_Bernie Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 I had a 72 HF Lusso from 1996-2001 and a 1300S before that. These are fantastic cars and if I hadn't just bought another old Alfa I'd be very interested. Don't confuse a Fulvia with the Fiat era crap that killed the Lancia brand in the UK. If Omicron have been maintaining this one you know it will have been done properly too. Good luck with the sale Jonathan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike C. Posted August 16, 2012 Author Share Posted August 16, 2012 I've driven it and it really is very nice. A few typically Italian eccentricities, but the size and lightness make it wonderful to hustle around country lanes. It is completely original, but the only thing I might change is the seats. I'd put a couple of rally seats in for a bit more lateral support in hard cornering, and maybe a harness. The price was advised by Lancia Owners Club. Think it's insurance value is higher. Finding another one like it would be difficult. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wild bill Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 This is i think Gus who used to have a superlight, then a GT3 then some Aston of some sort (DB9 i think) This fulvia is a regular visitor to Beckington Motors as Gus lives just down the road and it is a beautiful little car (ISTR a V4 engine which sounds glorious) He and i usually joke about not leaving it out in the rain too long in case it dissolves but its a really top looking example.
