Fascinating Lancia, saw it late last year at the 96 club meeting in Belgravia, it's first outing for years as noted.
All Lancia members with or without their lancias are invited to their meetings that takes place monthly.
 The invite is listed in events and well worth going to, last time I went we had 8 lancias present..
Smashing meeting and for £5 you get tea and coffee as well as bacon & sausage butties etc.

Is there a discount for members? I remember something in VL but didn't note the code down.

Went there today.

Two of the best Lancias were in the car park! Only found 2 others....Steady's Short Arsed Tourer and a nice round arch Gp4 Strato's. Maybe there were others hiding but we didn't see them

The Strato's was the best sounding car on the cat walk and it was the only one donuting at the turn round point.

Overall a bit disappointing unless you like tripping over Ferraris, Astons, and Porsches. There were to be fair a few interesting cars but not much in the way of trade stalls.

Cant be bothered, its a dealer sales platform situated in a particularly difficult area to reach. Best wait for Race Retro.

I agree, it was a lesser show than last year, and the Stratos was very impressive. The Astura ‘Steady Special’ looked good. There was an Aurelia B50 Pinin Farina cabrio on a display stand that was new to me. It was said to be the 1951 Geneva Motor Show car that lived in the UK in the 1950s, won a Pebble Beach prize and is now on sale for £250,000. It reminded me of how beautiful a B20 is!
