Title: RHD Appia SIII at Brightwells, no reserve Post by: GerardJPC on 01 March, 2024, 09:46:31 AM https://angliacarauctions.co.uk/classic-auctions/2636-06-Apr-2024/5111~1-1961-lancia-appia-series-iii-saloon
La Vera Lancia! RHD, in the old Lancia manner, but not a UK car, it appears. MY LHD Appia was probably sold to a German buyer. Title: Re: RHD Appia SIII at Brightwells, no reserve Post by: Kevinlincs on 02 March, 2024, 06:18:45 PM What's the process for that car as regards getting a UK registration?
Is it relatively straight-forward or a paperwork nightmare? And do you get an age appropriate number as it's pre letter/symbol age? Guessing it's a recent import so an unknown history? Does look a nice thing though, anybody know of it? Title: Re: RHD Appia SIII at Brightwells, no reserve Post by: mikeC on 03 March, 2024, 09:25:53 AM Perfectly straightforward, Kevin. Don't waste effort using the Italian registration documents - if it's not in English DVLA will reject it. Just get an authentication letter from the Club and all will be well; DVLA will issue an age-related number based on the year of manufacture - 84886 dates the car to mid-1961 so it should be issued with a non-suffix number.

Excellent, thanks Mike. I'll keep my eye on it, will try and get a look at it beforehand as pictures don't always tell all the truth! Appreciate your advice, Kev 8) Title: Re: RHD Appia SIII at Brightwells, no reserve Post by: richardlewis on 04 March, 2024, 03:45:00 PM FYI... having to consider selling my silver s3 Appia berlina RHD in the spring as I am going to lose the storage/ garage.... great shame as it's been a brilliant car for me last 3 years.. done about 5000 miles !
Anyone interested can contact me directly before advertising it... it's in excellent overall condition ... a few marks on the bodywork , excellent interior.. serviced recently etc. Richard Lewis 07535163957 PS value very tricky to say ... 8 to 10k ?

Title: Re: RHD Appia SIII at Brightwells, no reserve Post by: richardlewis on 06 March, 2024, 08:36:03 AM Newbury actually... it's very kind ... don't want to sell !...it's a bit far really, as I do like to drive it regularly .. I am looking for a garage nearby atm, but would keep you in mind certainly !
Many thanks , I might advertise it within the club to start ... see what response I get. Rich |
