Title: Which Trevi Would You Buy? Post by: SanRemo78 on 11 May, 2016, 10:03:36 PM The one that's just popped up for £995 in need of restoration

was down at Walkers last week saw the Prisma they have but no sign of the Trevi, the Prisma seemed fairly solid. The restoration project Trevi looks like a whole world of pain to me, whereas the Walkers one looks a bargain with an MOT for £1699...how to sneak it past the wife...

Post by: frankxhv773t on 12 May, 2016, 07:11:18 PM The Walker's one is an earlier version and perhaps a purer rendition of the design with those distinctive alloy wheels. However I do rather like the later mirrors on the barn find.

Post by: stanley sweet on 13 May, 2016, 11:46:30 AM I seem to remember it caused quite a fuss in newspapers but it seemed to be more like the 'Have Lancia gone mad?' variety. Like a lot of good design people come around to it much later.

I think this maybe the ultimate one if you- 1) Have the money 2) Don't mind LHD 3) Don't mind importing from Sienna. Title: Re: Which Trevi Would You Buy?

Title: Re: Which Trevi Would You Buy? Post by: frankxhv773t on 10 July, 2017, 08:36:09 PM I have read that although the dash is fantastic to look at if you aren't the right position the warning lights are not visible.
