Yes Peter, if you spot a B12 berlina or two I'd be delighted if you took a few extras pics

I was at Retromobile yesterday evening.

There is this incredible display of Lancias organised by Lukas Hüni, opposite his "normal" stand.

It starts with an original D24 (not a replica - the only other one is in the Lancia collection, I think), and ends with an original B12. In between 2 B24 (a spider and a convertible), a B20 speciale, in a special color, and with an original leather interior, a beautiful Aprilia Lusso, of course in Lancia blue, an Astura Tipo Bocca, and a Lambda (that was seen in Fobello 2011) - then a nice collection of Flaminias (berlina, coupe, Sport, and Touring convertible). Finally, I almost forgot, 2 Stratos, and one Fulvia Fanalone.
All cars from private collections, not for sale.

The B12 is in Lancia blue, with the original cloth interior in grey, and just perfect, as are all other cars. It has chrome trim rings on its steel wheels : very elegant!

I find it very thoughtful of Lukas Hüni that the berlinas (Flaminia, Aprilia and Aurelia) are included in such a stupendous display!

Sorry, no photos, you have to go and see for yourself! Or search the web !

On the stand of the Lancia Club France, a very nice appia Berlina 1st series, and a warm welcome by the club members!

Missed it this year for the first time for several years (now that I am in France it's so hard to get to...).  :) :) But went to Automotoretrò in Turin instead, with Will How and Dale Hicks. That's not a great show (although from my point of view - autojumble - not much worse than Rétromobile has got, nowadays).

But I did get a nice pic of Will and Dale with a Signor Manfredi somethingorother...
