Fully agreed with all your comments!
The 1972 registration date was certainly obtained by the previous owner with a Lancia donor car as Fulvia or 2000 HF and changed the model for a Stratos with some magic wand in the registration office!![]()

You couldn't buy a production run Stratos in 1972.
I see, Frederic, so a previous owner could have modified an existing registration. Naughty!
Chris, correct, no such thing as a '72 Stratos. But the guy in the registration office wouldn't know that....it's just an old car.
The thing is, though, that the advert contains no fibs. It's a 1972 Stratos, and a replica, with the features mentioned. The only thing causing jaws to drop is the price - if it'd been E45k, and not 245, it'd only have warranted a brief comment.
John, I understand what you're saying about differences in the meaning of "replica" - a regular production version modified to emulate a specific rally car, or a kit-car replica. But I think in this case, it'd be taken to be the latter given how few original cars were made, and the current market for Stratos reps. Sooooo.....is the price intended to reflect the fact that it's registered as a genuine Stratos? Still seems far too steep, especially given the chances of being caught in a dodgy act and the consequences of that.

I wonder what price they'd be asking if it was fitted with this:

Has the trolley got a V5?
Chris, I bet the trolley's not got a V5, but it could well be adapted from an old WW2 V1 or V2 launch trolley. Or maybe not.![]()
On auction now in BAT here... anyone tempted for a new build ?
