Received my back issues of C&SC. Great articles, particularly the one from 1991.
A much more detailed description of how the car drives compared to more recent motoring publishing.
Wonder why that is? Nowadays you get a long description about the cars history and hardly an mention of the driving experience.

I have been told, that often the journalist doesn’t bother driving the car they are reviewing.

I guess that is your black coupe in the articles Charles. Great colour. I think all the large Lancias look best in dark colours.

My car is in the 2011 article....MLE139L. I had just bought the car from Richard Thorne, and Martin Buckley had been in touch with him about doing the article. It also featured in the 2017 article on all the Flaminias.

I am biased, but I would highly recommend a PF, if you are tempted.  They are incredible value considering the quality and engineering involved, as are most Lancias, and so nice to drive.....really feels special!

The saloon in the 1994 article is still extant, just, but my attentions have moved on to a better prospect
at present.
