Title: Saab Lancia 600 and Lancia A112 Post by: Richard Fridd on 14 August, 2013, 05:53:54 PM Not having been previously aware of these two models, does anyone know if any exist in the UK, apart from Mark Devaney's car? Richard

Richard Richard, we had a debate about the Saab on here a couple of years ago, never seen one and I think it's highly unlikely there are any here. The A112 was also sold and made by Autobianchi, it was also sold as the Lancia A112 but as far as I'm aware not in the UK, I recall that a fella down at Chepstow had one back in the mid 1990's, but I'm not aware of any others than Mark's. Friend of mine in Holland races the Arbath version.

I don't think they were hugely popular there.

He went to look at one and reported that it had rust holes the size of golf balls around the door handles and windscreen. The article concluded with him saying that the whole idea of lancia selling the Delta as a Saab in that climate was nuts. :)
