C&SC Aurelia buyers guide
« on: 01 February, 2010, 01:39:59 PM »
I gather that the March 2010 edition of the esteemed publication Classic and Sports Car has an Aurelia buyers guide in it.  I haven't seen it yet, but I gather they've done a good job.  LMC members provided the cars featured in the article.

My copy has just landed on the mat.

Not read it yet it but it extends to about four pages. The cover says it's a definitive buyers guide to "Lancia's sublime Aurelia"

quite a short article but good all the same.
If you screw your eyes up, at the top of page 12 you can just make out part of the Lancia Contingent at Brooklands on New Years Day. :D

Subaru now have one - and I think the first ever made.  It's rather good apparently.  If they'd put it in the Impreza a bit earlier I might even have given it a look as a company motor...

Above mentionned Subaru Diesel has nothing much to do with the Aurelia buyers guide. However I have one (a Legacy) to keep my Aurelia company, and can recommend it as an everyday car, for long distances: I have driven mine now around 40'000 miles,averaging around 6l / 100 km, or around 47 MPG. A modern flavia diesel, with 4WD! The theoretical perfect balance of the flat four engine is really noticeable at low revs.

To get back to subject, I still have to find C&SC here in Switzerland to see what they wrote on the Aurelias (hopefully not just the usual B20 and B24, but also Berlinas!)
