Very interesting as you can't see the number plate but it's supposedly a 1.6 and is in red with a black vinyl roof.
According to the comments 3 were made in Italy, all 1.3's , but Alan Cooper reckons someone in the UK also built some, there was a white one which died years ago, Steve Costigan in the Bristol Group used to have a red 1.3 with a red roof. see photos below.
Going by the photo in La Lancia Edition p363 of the 3 that were made by Baroni & Conti, one was a metallic Grey, as I make that 4, it seems that Alan is right and more were made in the UK.

It's interesting that in your picture Brian that the roof is red, I have a picture where the roof is black!??
I'm sure Alan Cooper is correct, I thought they were converted in the U.K. too

Ade,
That's interesting, was that taken at Peterborough? my photos were from the Compass in at Tormarton circa 1996, in both photos the roof looks in very good condition, so I wonder why it was changed? personally I prefer the black, it's either that or the roof gutter trim could have done with being painted red as well on the red roof.
