If Lancia were to launch a new Stratos....

[damian]

....what should be consist of?

The original was quite simply one of my favourite cars of all time, the design, the shape and whole concept was brilliant.

So what if Lancia were to launch a new one.......

It should consist of:

The same thing, but minus rust and with a bit better build quality and electrics that work.
So basically get someone other than Lancia to build it.

Can someone post up a pic of this car please

[Stuart]

There's a pic in one of the 2 Goodwood FoS posts.
In a real environment it looks a bit better.
I'm not convinced the colour does it any favours though.

 

[skitt]

I kind of like the yellow

I sense a dislike of the world-famous Italian craftmanship here, where the English aren't exactly known for a fantastic job there either :finger May I remind you that the spaghetti-exhaust was invented in Italy for instance. What did the English invent for Pete's sake ? The tode-in-the-hole muffler ?

BTW the above post was direted at Stuart

Sorry directed, directed, directed :wall My keyboard is of English or Italian build quality you know

That colour looks bad, doesn't do it any favours.

TV, radio, radar, steam engines, trains, discovered electricity (I think), gravity, laws of motion, calculus, jet engine, hovercraft, ... etc. Also broke the sound barrier in a car.

That pretty much covers it I think

Oh yeah, great stuff You forgot to mention that Sven Goran Erikson was appointed as England's coach didn't you..

England is not the country it once was.
The lunatics have taken over the asylum and it's all going downhill.
Greatness is all in the past.

I've got nothing against Italian cars, I just wouldn't buy one.
