Title: 1989 Delta 1300 LX for sale Post by: Andy D on 07 October, 2021, 01:40:21 PM Extremely rare and in lovely original condition with only 37k miles. It has a 1301cc version of the extremely smooth SOHC engine that was also shared with models such as the Fiat 128, X1/9, Strada and Uno.
Garaged and on SORN for a number of years until Apr 2012 when it was acquired by the previous (LMC member) owner at 24k miles. Purchased by me in Jan 2015 at 32k miles. Mechanically I’d regard it as excellent, and it has been regularly maintained by an ex-Lancia mechanic whilst I have owned it. I have also not had any problems with its electrics. The bodywork is still in good condition overall although there is some minor rust, most notably an isolated spot at the bottom of the windscreen and at the very bottom of the nearside rear wheel arch. But generally, the rear arches are very good, and the back edge of the roof is also only showing minor signs of rust. The underside of the car appears to be completely solid and was freshly rustproofed in 2015. Key work undertaken: - ‘Longlife’ stainless steel exhaust (nice and raspy) (2012) - Cut out rust and welding at bottom of offside front wing, weld patch repairs to rear wheel arch corners (2015) - Full ‘Rustbuster’ (Spalding) rustproofing service (2015) - Major service that included new clutch, tailgate struts, front anti-roll bar bushes, rear hub bushes, front discs and pads, rear brake shoes, rotor arm, air intake hose, cambelt and tensioner, four wheel alignment, brake fluid, inner CV boots, gear linkage mount/bush (2015) - Cambelt and tensioner (2019) Full service history back to 2012 and partial for earlier period. Current MOT expires Sep 2022 and MOT history back to 2012 also available online (recorded fail in 2020 due to error at MOT station). V5C document present and two sets of keys. Kenwood CD player also included. £2,850 ono Contact: PM or 07889 615779 It will also be at the Auto-Italia Italian car day at Brooklands on Sunday for anybody interested to take a look. And more detailed photos will be available in the next day or so.

It has gone to a good home, a lapsed LMC member who is going to rejoin the club. He has reassured me that he will be keeping it original and not using is it as part of some dodgy integrale shell swap :).

The chap who has it is some kind of dealer, clearly. I always think that commercial buyers should be frank about themselves. Anyone interested could of course ask Andy how much he sold it to the chap for. I think we can be sure there has been no expenditure on it. Ciao a tutti. |
