Very very nice color ??

Did you notice how the rear louvers on rear bonnet ???

Lower one is particularly bend to get abig opening ??

[Guy Mayers]

Anyone else notice the front louvres are in the wrong way round? Christ almighty....

[LPH_UK]

My LB is going to end up this colour I reckon. Already got the gold wheels and always wanted to do it green!

Well spotted Guy :D

Oupps !!!! well spotted Guy !! +1 :o

In french we say ;
Bravo Rien n'échappe au fin limier !!!!
( sound hard to translate !!!! fin= skilled and limier= sort of Sherlok Holmes :rolleyes:)

So Leigh ; when fitting your front louvers ..... double check mandatory LOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL;)

"Stratos" badge is missing on rear panel

[Sando]

The whole replacement front end looks a bit odd and pointy as well as the louvers back to front.. As does the rear ride height.
all authentic though eh!

[LM mic]

So........ asking for the price should be a waste of time or... of ........................... money !!!!! Re LOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL:D:D;)

[Guy Mayers]

Missing wheel centre caps.
Not a fan of body coloured rear lamp surrounds.
Mismatched petrol caps.
Left front indicator protrudes further than the right one?
Truly horrible exhaust heat shield.
No interior shots but the view from the front shows seats with very rounded tops?

I wonder if the price is dropping to a point one of us can afford it yet??

[Griff]

wrong mirrors

[ProtoTipo]

Hawk wheels

[Darkspeed]

If the owner wanted to make his car pass off as a replica - he succeeded. So, if looking to create an authentic replica of a "genuine" - to be established - Strato's, use this one as a model and save yourself a small fortune. If mine gets mistaken for an LB STR I will be a happy man. ;)

Left front indicator protrudes further than the right one?
Guy

Guy,
Do you reckon the front indicator lenses are the wrong way up/round?
Left on right, right on left?

Yes, I've decided they are upside down.
It's a theme?

[Guy Mayers]

I think you're right Chris.
Headlamp pods poorly installed too, not flush! So easy to put right, why do they cock these little things up?

[ChrisC]

What's going on with front rad grille and rear air intake mesh.

[ProtoTipo]

What's going on with front rad grille and rear air intake mesh.

Yes, 'just a sheet of mesh with no frame.
With that in mind, the edge of the front grille recess ought to be painted black?

[Bernard]

No shots of under the clams either... unless I am missing them ?

[Sando]

We had a chat about this at work today and agreed we think it's this car that has always popped up on google Stratos images as a red car.

Same stance, front clam with spoiler, wheels, California mirror positions, and exactly same exhaust shield.... ?

[Sando]

And the arched rear louvers.....

[Lancialulu]

Red under the clams then??!! Or is this photoshop at work?

[ironman523]

Good spot...Looked better when it was red...needs the contrast of some black in either colour.

[Rotor1]

So is it real or imaginary?

Ouppps!! very very clever and good spot indeed!!!!
So did they paint her differently to succeed in selling due to previous fails ???????
Or is it only a change of owner for money profit ?????

[Bernard]

Good spot !!!!!........................still only has the single rear sticker !

[Guy Mayers]

Good spot !!!!!........................still only has the single rear sticker !

Now I really want to see this car..... Just to check and see if they just masked off the rear badge when it was repainted!

[ProtoTipo]

Hi Tim,

No, it's been painted green.
There's a limit to what PhotoShop can do.

'Good spot Rob. It's that same (red) car for certain.

[Lancialulu]

Easyjet have a sale on.....

That's exactly what I was thinking Guy......... surely they were not that cheap............... I wonder

[ProtoTipo]

These are the 'seats' though:

[Guy Mayers]

Name that film in one?

Flight of the Phoenix?

[Sando]

'Good spot Rob. It's that same (red) car for certain.

Cant claim that one, it was Mr White, but he is busy working every available hour of the day.

[Fingers]

Second to last paragraph says it all, looks like it is the same car. http://www.rmsothebys.com/lots/lot.cfm?lot_id=1061007

This makes the current sellers quote of......... "This Lancia is in a largely untouched original condition with only about 45,000 KM and has very nice driving characteristics" ............. somewhat questionable !!!!!

Hoooohhhhhhhh !! Phill you are so hard with this seller !!!!;);):D
They just forgot to add some details to their phrase

"This Lancia is in a largely untouched .......(under the badge and the rear louvers).....original condition !!!!!!!:rolleyes:

LOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL:cool:

[ProtoTipo]

Name that film in one?

Flight of the Phoenix?

Yup.
Why on earth did they need to do a remake?
I refuse to watch it.

[ProtoTipo]

I can imagine.

I remember someone commenting on the length of Craig's hair at Stoneleigh a couple of years ago.
No time for such frivolous things?!

[john]

Ha ha! I'll take my clippers next time I go. No.1, Sir??
