There was a David Vivian article on a used manual V8 in Evo a few months ago. A real bargain at the mo and will only appreciate IMO.
Yeah, I've been looking* at a few of these all around £35k.

They are good value..

I seem to recall reading about chassis cracking issues though. Not sure if it’s one of those problems that affect a small number of cars but the internet makes out to be a more widespread issue than it really is.

Donor car for the majority of parts presumably. It's quite explicitly stated in the ad it's based of a Hawk kit with a Lancia donor car.

Beta Montecarlo.

I can imagine it being a good base for a replica 😎

I’ll bet the only lancia beta parts on it are a few bits of switch gear. :lol: :lol:

They definitely wouldn’t get away with it under the current points system.

Can't be very big cars. Not a lot of space in the bed and you'll need a crane (or do you plan on lifting the cars up using brute strength?).
