Hi

I happened to visit the Lancia Owners Club Centenary Celebrations last September in London.

What a fantastic lineup of phenomenal vehicles - the great marque Lancia, was truly evocative of a more expansive and stylish era!

see the pics!
there are 40 odd pics so i will post them over 4 or 5 posts

shankar.balan · 21st April 2008, 11:35

arent these beauties really lovely.....enjoy!

shankar.balan · 21st April 2008, 11:40

these are the last lot of Lancias whose pics I managed to retrieve...

hopefully there are some enthusiasts for this particular marque - they were considered very classy cars in earlier days!

Very nice pictures Balan! Loved the Stratos, remember seeing one in the flesh quite a few years back parked at a gas pump in Interlaken.

Superb, simply superb! You must have had a blast indeed. How many cars were present at the event?

Precisely, but besides just the layout, it's the rustic feel of that place. Covent Garden's main square is like a mini Italy...suits Lancia just fine!

shankar.balan · 22nd April 2008, 08:47

more than a 100 cars
it was their centenary and their effort was to get a hundred plus cars on board for the event
fantastic

just like someone said.
a collection of lancia's is like a collection of pornography !

What a lovely marque Lancia is! Re visiting this old thread 15 years after creating it.
Watching a couple of excellent YouTube videos one from one of my favourite channels, Harry’s Garage where he features his beautifully restored Zagato.
And another one from another favourite channel Carfection, with the inimitable Henry Carchpole with that Outlaw Aurelia.
Automotive Heaven!
