1993 Lancia Dedra 1.6 i.e.

My only Lancia so far, and it wasn't what I had hoped it to be. I did end up getting it very cheaply (£350?) but it almost immediately had a running fault which caused it to hesitate and 'miss' for about an hour on the long journey home. The next day this turned into cutting out constantly when slowing down, which was incredibly stressful! Despite that it was pretty comfortable, and sounded good, despite offering barely any performance thanks to the catalysed engine being choked of all its power, with 75hp on offer.

It was also very rotten, the rear wings had began to detach from the rest of the car, the welds obviously giving up, not to mention the front door skin. A shame, but there we go. I would opt for a Tempra given the chance to again.

 

Scrapped by the person who I sold it to.
