Title: Government Scrappage Schema - Lancia Statistics Post by: sparehead3 on 22 March, 2016, 12:37:29 PM This came from a pistonheads article http://www.pistonheads.com/news/general-pistonheads/save-our-sheds/33957 where there's been some pictures on the scrapped cars that are sat on an airfield in Bedfordshire. Out of interest, I've downloaded the government statistics on the cars and filtered on Lancia. Here are the numbers :

Yes, so roadworthy as above, but presumably the owners knew there was a lot of work coming their way! Even so, a basket case Fulvia would be worth a lot more than the scrappage money now. |
