Title: Thema 8.32 - specialists? Post by: BenJacksonTP on 06 July, 2024, 05:54:52 PM Hi all. I'm a new member of the club. Was aiming to buy a Fulvia and then managed to accidentally buy a Thema 8.32 instead. It's a beautiful example that's had loads of money spent but the belts need doing. They've only done 2k miles but were last changed in 2018. So need doing for peace of mind.
Does anyone know any good specialists? I'm based in Wiltshire but happy to travel a couple of hours. Title: Re: Thema 8.32 - specialists? Post by: poppy67 on 07 July, 2024, 08:32:40 AM With a vehicle as you have got, with 32 valves to contend with, I would certainly use a Lancia specialist.
Tanc Barrett would be my 1st call, he has the best reputation within the club & always busy, so a good sign. Genuine OE parts are what you need as well, belts/pulleys/tensioners'/water pump etc. He is at :- Temeside Ludlow SY8 1PA Shropshire Telephone :- 01299 266 355 Good luck & regards, Stuart.
