Title: Re-badging Chrysler to Lancia
Post by: Derek Moore on 10 May, 2012, 02:46:43 PM
Happened to see www.aarrtt.co.uk mentioned in the forum and, upon entering their website I see they will totally re-badge any new RHD Chrysler Ypsilon/Delta as Lancia. Surprised they haven't made a bit of this in the club, unless of course I've missed it. I know one or two members have bought the Chrysler Ypsilon. Wonder if they've had the re-badging done?

Derek,
Reading the blurb on the website it doesn't actually say they have rebadged either a Chrysler Delta or a Chrysler Ypsilon.
I have no doubt thet they are capable of doing so an they modified the headlights on second series Y to comply with RHD headlights.
It wouldn't be cost effective to remove all the Chrysler badging as it is stamped on all the glass, the airbag and the sat nav display, besides all the seats, grille and badges, so anything less than this will still have Chrysler on it.

Hi Brian

Yes still singing for my supper. Can't seem to retire. Have done Irish gigs, solo, duo and rock band stuff so far this year. Working on new songs even now. It's cos of this bloody awful weather stopping me getting the Lancias out.

Yes the V5 will still say Chrysler. Who made this stupid decision?
