Unwanted Coupe
« on: 26 January, 2026, 09:57:26 AM »
I ended up buying a coupe last year .the owner imported the car from the UK in 2020 .
Unfortunately due to Brexit the import tax on the car  too expensive to import into Ireland
He left it sitting outside  for about 4 years, and in that time it deteriorated badly .
I purchased it from him just to save it . I couldn't leave this piece of amazing Lancia history rot outside.
It was first registered in 1963. 146 YVO, at some point it had the registration 52 PJ , the cdolour is Lancia Blue.
The car is absolutely complete and unmolested. just left to die.
I have the engine running and it's very sweet. The brakes are non existent but all the lines are copper and replaced at some point  .
I can see it was a very important car to someone for many years .  I have a green logbook for it and the last change of ownership was 1975to a mister Jack Johnson from Nottingham .There are no other names on the book
It needs a home.  Its restorable and could be a running restoration for someone.


I can be contacted by email at david.mirolo@gmail.com  if anyone is interested  in this piece of history.

That car looks way better than what I started off with, or indeed still have!
Looks too good to be broken for spares, hopefully someone will take it on.
Might be worth mentioning where it currently is and what price is required to get the lovely thing  8)
Flavia 815 coupe

The3 Flavia is located in Wexford Ireland , I have transport so it can be brought to the UK no problem
I'm looking for €5,000.00 for it , I paid €4000.00 for it last  year , I had great intentions to restore it but I'm not in a position to take it on myself .
Thanks
David
