"Fulvia is an odd name, it sounds like you're talking about some woman's parts or something. I would have chosen something different."

Hmmm.

Good film though. See what you think.

Very good, a little optimistic on the power output for the 1.3, otherwise enjoyable, he needs to test a coupe next.

would be nice if he got some of the historical facts right. The Gianni and the Communist Party story is getting old, as there is little basis for it…. And the Marshall Aid facts could use some truth - as Lancia got plenty of aid…. but I suppose Jay's having a good time with the stories….

You should "guest" on the next Lancia film.

Having watched his Fiat Millecento film perhaps with your Appia rather than the B20.

Loved the film so much I can forgive the inaccuracies.

Lovely! what are the front bumper direction indicators from? I will listen to the show commentary later incase there is an explanation regarding the single only front auxillery lamp

Have to say I enjoyed it too even if inaccuracies have been pointed out. That is a beautiful example, in my favourite colour of Zagato/Aston green. I prefer the twin lights over the European oblong type. Almost had me thinking about selling the coupe and buying a Zagato. But I have such a long history of great journeys and memories with the coupe I couldn't watch someone else drive away in it.

Isn't the Aston colour "Thistle Green"?

You could be right. I've never discovered the name but it's a beautiful colour. Why does the owner quote 115bhp for this car? It's a 1967 1300. Wouldn't that be around 87bhp? Surely only 1600's produce 115?

Its US HP just like US gallons..... I love the BS mastery, so just trips of both their tongues!!! And that it has never been taken apart yeh right.

(BTW 1600 114 hp in concise manual, 115 in WIM, and 818303 1.3 90bhp, but this one must have been around 87)

The front indicators look similar to those on the front bumper of an Iso Grifo (from memory).

Very enjoyable - also I never considered Flaminia's similarity in sound to Clamydia... It takes Jay to point something like that out. Maybe it explains why I'll have trouble ever getting rid of mine!!!!

As Jay Leno says: "Very cool!"

Well done!
