Back in the late 1980's early 1990's, IAD carried out a styling exercise, with a view to Lancia taking it up and putting it into production.
It was based on the Dedra integrale.
I was surprised that Lancia never picked upon it as it was a very stylish 4 seater.
In the mid 1990's I saw it at the Sports Car Centre at Pershore, who were a Lancia Dealer at the time.
I think it was sold privately shortly afterwards.
And it appears to have disappeared.
So I was wondering if anyone has any idea what happened to it? I suspect it's in someone private collection.
Yet another opportunity lost by Fiat/Lancia.

The last time I saw it was when it was auctioned by Coys at Olympia in 1997.

That could have been a perfect successor to the Fulvia and Beta coupes.

That is very nice and looks modern today, never mind 20+ years ago.

Given it's a modern coupe it would look a bit like a hyena. Does the Dedra floor pan have a longer wheelbase? The picture makes it look longer and sleeker than a Hyena.

Yes, it's a 4 seater.
