Delta integrale 8v restored on tv

[Jai Sharma]

This is coming up for auction on the 9th. I suspect it is my first integrale, which I registered after a friend imported it. At that time it was E 398 GMY.

I was very fond of that car (the only car I ever bought twice!) and would be interested but I already have an integrale.

Lovely, I had a HF Turbo, same colour and same Recaro interior.

I would buy the car Jai!  If only for being able to tell you bought the same car three times!  Good Pub story that is!

I normally don't notice details but there is red overspray on front Lancia badge and some of the under bonnet paint looks quite poor with evidence of dust/inclusions in pain and uneven finish.

Yes I think you are right about that. To be honest, I thought the car was scrapped many years ago - when I sold it the first time it was a lovely car with just lacquer faults and my friend who bought it had it nicely painted. Then, it deteriorated over time and the second time I bought it, it was quite tatty and it rusted further in my ownership. I think I sold it for £1100 then and I thought it might become a parts car. It would be interesting to see the state of it before restoration.

Sold for 41k, some 37 times what I sold it for….
I might start a career as a financial adviser!
