I went to collect the Aprilia shell that was briefly on ebay (yes, Chugga and I bought it) and the seller, Geoff Crabtree, has what I think is an amazing Flavia Berlina 1800 for sale. Un-restored, totally unmolested, low mileage. Original paint, cloth interior etc. The main issue it has that I could see is crumbling foam in the dash and front seats. Engine runs well, brakes need work (not the cheapest job on these cars...). There's a tiny dent in the rear rh wing (should be able to see in one photo) and the paint lacquer isn't in the best state everywhere, but I'd say certainly serviceable - photos flatter of course.
Geoff is a real Lancia enthusiast and has a couple of Aprilias for sale. He finds a lot of cars in France and knows of some Flavia coupes for sale there if any of you are interested. Contact details; Crabtree Classics, 01622 884287,

Anyway, back to the Berlina. Geoff's looking for about £3k for it. He was thinking of putting it on ebay but we agreed that I'd post it here to give LMC members first dibs.
If I wanted one of these cars I would buy this one; so if you're thinking of getting one (they are amazingly refined to drive and beautifully built, though not to look at according to most commentators!) this car is very much worth a look.
Disclaimer, I have no interest in this car and am just passing on info the the LMC community...
