Call me a spiv, but I rather fancied these Martini shoes I saw at the Mirafiori shop in Italy 2006, only they didn't have any in stock.  Roll Eyes

Even though I got the regalia counter assistant's business card and have e-mailed her, I have had no response.  What's new...

Does anyone know if and how they can be ordered through Lancia spares?

Those are the Sabelt Lanica centenary racing boots, retail was 250 Euro/pair so I played the woman thing, swore blind they'd been in the cupboard for years Cool

No longer available of the Sabelt online shop, I bought one pair for safekeeping, then picked up another pair on eBay to actually wear from time to time. eBay will be your best bet - look under Sabelt and try the EU eBay sites as well

Should come with a velvet bag inside the centenary box

Too true!

Mine have seen the light of day about 3 times and worn for about 30 seconds!

Guy, I too was disappointed they had none at Mirafiori but spotted them in a shop in Via Roma later on in the week. I bought a pair ,
after quick phone call for Margaret's O.K (!), a second pair  for an LMC friend back home and then Tim went and bought a pair too!
 I think the salesman was slightly bemused by all these Brits buying them up.

As I flew to the centenary I had no space in my suitcase Tim kindly brouht them back in his Fulvia, along with the other two sets!
I wonder what customs would have made of them!

Oh dear!  Africans come second best again.  Roll Eyes I've searched high and low in my velvet centenary badge bag to no avail.  Grin

Steve & Tim, just as well you didn't try and import them to Oz.  On a recent TV border program, the Aussie customs drilled holes through the soles of a bunch of shoes that they deemed were being imported for sale, rather than for personal use or samples.  Tongue

Any chance of exchanging these 'safe' ones for some ultra-rare Kappa, or even Delta, or Fulvia parts?  Cheesy

I found some at Auto Halan, the Dutch Lancia agents!

Thanks to Stu for helping procure them - they arrived safely in Pangbourne last week.
