Indeed. I can see it now.
Not sure on the photo captioned " as originally built". Unless they did run the car on UDN' s plate at some time.
But they were two different cars.

I see it now. Thanks Guy.
Now sold per Auto Integrale's Facebook page. Anyone on here?

Sadly Keith says the buyer had to pull out so it's still available, someone needs to save this car.
And also dropped to 18K - one price suits all it seems.
Ha, yes Andrew.
A choice of projects available at the moment. When did that last happen? Contents a bit different though.
Still a lot of work in the Scott car but you would be getting something a bit different.
Still available, on eBay with a reserve price but starting at ?1000.

No connection to the seller.

I suggest it finishes at 8,900 with reserve not met - at a guess reserve set at 16,500.
Is the rear spoiler deliberately fitted at that angle for a reason?
Yes, because it ran with the big full wing mounted above it.Quote:

The eBay listing says it's missing front shocks and the screen and radiator? I assume none of them are an issue except maybe the screen? Or does an LB one fit?
The biggie nobody has asked about is registration? I seem to recall it running around on a V plate back in the day (says he off to look at old copies of Auto Italia) but was it ever put through SVA/IVA and what does it say on the logbook? I suspect that might have more of an impact on value now than a few missing parts?
Assuming it's build date is pre SVA (provable by magazine entries) can it still be granted IVA exemption?
Guy
From what John D. says Guy, it'll need to go through IVA.Quote:

Thanks Craig, I should have looked at the photo at the beginning of this thread. 'Makes sense now.Quote:

I doubt it could get an age related plate now... If DVLA asked for evidence of the 3.0 in a Beta I think that would need some creative photoshopping. Or finding a Pic of the rear engined Busso powered Lancia Beta that Mick Covill built and photoshop that number plate. Suspect this one will end up as either a trackday toy or go through an IVA test with a Q plate being issued. Unless you have an Alfa 164 donor car you could swap the engine number onto? It's a tangled web we (try to) weave.

I suspect we are actually inadvertently hitting on the reason why this is not moving. There is now supposedly a V5 with the car, but I remain unconvinced its actually for this car in its earliest form.
But who knows? What I was told about its early history could well be doubtful as the early posts in this thread refer to.
Things have changed over the years and it's not as easy to satisfy DVLA, DVSA or VOSA, or whatever they are called this week.
Personally, I think the reason it's not moving is that its just very overpriced for what you are getting and most of what you get would be binned.
Even mine looked "wonderful" when getting magazine attention.

But after a couple of decades very little was actually useful.

I doubt if much more than 5% of the original number of parts remain. Many rivets were lost in the battle and did not make it back ;)
Is a "Linton Corse" similar to a Litton Corse?
The two places are very close so they do get confused quite often.Quote:

Auction ended early. Looks like it has got a new owner at last. Looking forward to updates on rebuild progress and seeing it out and about again!
Guy
Interestingly (maybe) it says not for sale now - rather than sold.Quote:
