Maybe them too, but I have memories of the Alfasud. A nice looking car in its day before they all returned to the ground whence they came. :cry:

Yeah, I remember them, same with Lancia's too, they were slagged off so bad here in the UK that Lancia refused to send any more over.

I don't think we ever got Lancias in Australia, not even the mundane Delta. The Stratos was one of my boyhood hero rally cars.

I owned four suds over about eight years, great little performers. Two of them came with rust straight from the showroom. Definitely a heart purchase, no brain involved. :) :)

Pal of mine had an Alfasud Sprint Veloce.
It was drop dead gorgeous.

The Italians and early Brits drew some lovely autos.
Most had to be heart purchases.
So what. ....you can't take it with, anyway!
Dated a lovely girl like that in Paris 50 yrs ago..
You see....I still remember her!
