Prisma 1600 i.e. Symbol
« on: 05 September, 2013, 07:28:55 PM »
Lancia Prisma 1600 i.e. Symbol

I have decided to sell my Prisma - now a very rare car as you probably know.  This is the only one that I have seen at shows over the last few years.  I bought this car in December 2011 and have covered a very enjoyable and reliable c. 4,000 miles.

Mileage is currently 102,800, MOT expires 6th Feb 2014, seven previous owners, V5C document present and two sets of keys.  Part service history from previous owners but all paperwork from my ownership.  I have all MOTs since 1992 documenting mileage history.  Since I bought it it has been maintained by Lancia specialist John Whalley in Bishops Stortford and an independent local mechanic who used to be a Lancia technician before the brand pulled out of the U.K.

GOOD BITS:  
-Characterful twin cam 'Lampredi' engine is reliable and pulls strongly
-All electrics work as they should
-Alcantara interior in very good condition considering age but with some bobbling to drivers seat
-Powerflow stainless steel exhaust (sounds nice but but not loud)
-Good Hankook 175/60/14 tyres all round (fitted 2011)
-New clutch and clutch cable (fitted 2012)
-New timing belt (fitted 2012)
-New radiator (fitted 2012)

BAD BITS:
-Some rust - most notably: on roof near sunroof, scuttle and nearside front wheel arch (although spare wings supplied - see below)
-MOT advisory relating to 'slight corrosion' under boot floor

FURTHER INFO:
-Two brand new front wings are included in the sale together with a spare grille
-Wiring and speakers exist for stereo but no stereo currently in car
-Original handbook also included

Could be taken on as a restoration project or used as is.

£600

Don't hesitate to PM me if you have any questions - I'm also open to offers.  Car located in Surbiton KT6.

Don Cross's car?
No, It's the ex Betty Reece car HCG 30K and belongs to  Mr & Mrs C.O. Miles.
Don's Series 2 Berlina is Maroon.

Peter, you're quite correct as I've just looked at a photo of Diane & Margaret with it, but I could have sworn he had a marron one at sometime?  or perhaps I'm thinking of his Series 1 Appia ::)

Some work must have been done on it as Andy's bad points aren't visible and it looks like it's gained a catalytic converter ...
