Thinking about the Fulvia and cars like that. Does anyone know anything about them or can recommend any particular models or have any advice on buying one.

Fulvia buyers guide:
RUST, RUST, RUST, RUST. ;D
Sorry, that didn't help did it. A friend of mine bought a Fulvia once...great car - until it disintegrated. Oops, I did it again didn't I?

It's not for me. I've got a rusty 6-series and a rusty Saab for myself. The old man is looking for a Lancia. I'll pass-on that advice.
Some of the Fulvia's came with aluminum body-pannels. which model was that? the HF?

there are a couple of problems with that idea.
Firstly it's not an 'old' Lancia, old meaning; 1960's or 70's. and secondly the Saab 9000 would be faster, eaiser to service, cheaper and more luxurious. Also the thema 8.32 was never made in RHD.

Get a Beta coupe or Monte Carlo ,.. they rusted also,.. but all 70's cars did,.. BMWs, Alfa, Ford, Datsun,.. everything,... ... by now if it's not been skipped it's usually salvageable... If you buy a Lancia these are your new best friends : www.omicron.uk.com/Their cars for sale bit : www.omicron.uk.com/php/phpclassifieds/index.php |

I'd luv a Monte Carlo - but they fetch good money now (£3500 for a straight one)...................saw one with an engine swap once, someone had shoe horned in a 3.0 V6 Alfa Lump - sounded luuuuuuurvly on 2 foot long exhaust pipes !!!!!!
