Ah! Of course should have realised it was the Omicron car given the occasion.
No, we had a red Stradale show up at Abingdon one year and the story was that it belonged to Jos Verstappen and well used for travelling Europe between Grand Prix.

It was post 1998 Chris and the car I remember looked a lot tidier than that. I've probably got a photo somewhere.
I'm doubting my own memory on the Verstappen connection now as the chronology of Verstappens career wouldn't be quite right as a contemporary car would it?
'Sorry John, you said a Stradale didn't you.
That Geoff Crabtree car had square arches.
This red Stradale has been in the UK for ages. It's just been re-furbed and had another life as a Philip Morris (Marlboro) press car. (SEE HERE) It's been in more than one magazine article:

Certainly looks more like it. I'll see if I can dredge up the photos from Abingdon.
Are we going to this in 2024?

I will be going, taking a Beta that we are 'custodians' of, on behalf of fellow Lancisti, can't work out how to drive the Stratos at the same time!
Always a great event with stunning variety of Lancia's.
