Title: Thema Limousine Post by: Sebastien on 28 February, 2013, 04:13:20 PM I have spotted this on another Lancia forum, a rare bird, a Thema limousine.

Is it just me or are the wheels from a Gamma s2? Colin. Title: Re: Thema Limousine Post by: HF_Dave on 28 February, 2013, 09:22:25 PM I think the wheels are from an Alfa 164 .ALTHOUGH IT WOULD BE A NICE ONE TO ADD TO THE COLLECTION ;)
Title: Re: Thema Limousine Post by: fay66 on 01 March, 2013, 01:38:45 AM Looks very nice especially nice as it's a series 2.
Martin Willems has had one for sale for years with no takers, although I was once tempted but wondered where the heck I'd park it!There is also one in the Lancia collection which belonged to Agnelli, it was most odd in that the driver had leather seats while the rear seats were velour. Pretty sure they're Gamma Wheels.

Title: Re: Thema Limousine Post by: sparehead3 on 01 March, 2013, 10:37:22 AM They are gamma wheels if memory serves : there is Limo registered on the club database and I had to create the model for it as we hadn't already got one. They made 20 odd I think.

It is a very early limousine, ZLA83400000102004, thus earliest Series 1 limousine still existing, facelifted by the factory to Series 2. The original Series 1 bits and pieces (headlights, taillights, radiator grille) are available with the car. The seller also quotes: Meccanica in condizioni eccelleni, carrozzeria da risanare. Which means presumably that the bodywork has to be renovated. I find it also interesting that the car has a 5 speed manual gearbox. When I had a Thema 6V, many years ago, it came with a ZF 3-Speed automatic. It was surprinsingly refined, pleasant to drive, and I did not miss the manual gearbox.
