:think: isn't that Lancia just a fiat 124 in drag? (otherwise known as the base for the lada riva :) )
TA for the nice comment on my Lude matey :mrgreen:
It was luvly and clean on Wednesday 8-) today after a bit of rain not so :( rain seems to have so much dust in it these days :?
Surely this Lancia pre-dates the Fiat 124 :?: I think this was the shape of most everday motors in the 60s.
I have a huge box full of car sale brochures that I collected as a kid including the Fiat 124 and the Lada Riva 8-) :lol:
Cheers ;)

The Fulvia was first introduced in '63, the 124 was '66.




Also this gained an easy vote in LoTM ;)

:lol: I know just how you feel, buddy. No one else sees them but we know they're there, gnawing away at us, laughing at our feeble attempts to detail them away. Those stone-chip swines.... :lol:

LO All :D
Took a couple of piccies of the Lude today in Kings Lynn car park

I also bought a water blade the other day.

I was always a bit sceptical about them but used it the other day and it does a great job at getting rid of water before you use the drying cloth 8-)
Rain and water from washing always seems to sit on the roof bonnet and the boot lid on my Lude :roll:
Cheers all ;)
