reserve one for me please!

just think , in a couple of years we can drive a new fulvia cabriolet.(i was with a Lancia dealer last friday and he seemed certain they would be made).

Talking of which, over the years, I've seen a couple of home converted fulvia convertibles for sale and in circulation, the last one with a 2000cc engine fitted I seem to remember.Whilst these home conversions are usually a bit worrying, the natural line to remove the roof is there to see in an old fulvia providing you can stiffen the structure sufficiently of course.Are there any known within the club?

I think we may just have seen a preview of the production version of the Delta's nose - which as I said a while back, looks like a ruddy Astra...

do you mean the fulvia's nose in the photo will appear on the delta or is there a picture I didn't see? (its a difficult website to view)

My guess is that since both the Delta and Fulvia are going to be based on the Bravo platform, the nose of the Fulvia may be very similar to the nose we will see on the Delta - its perhaps the first hint of what the productionised Delta will look like - just an educated guess of course, they may be as different as the VW Eos is from the Golf...

providing the rear end has the fulvia styled lights and there's a sporty interior with nice big dials I find it very nice. Also, bare in mind how much nicer a racey grill can make a car. The momo design Y is much nicer looking than the normal one and that's just down to an agressive cosmetic front treatment.Who knows how it will really look when it hits the showroom! Let's just hope it does..

I think you'll find the 'model' is already available
