The Appeal

The Series 2 Lancia Fulvia 1.6 HF is one of the most celebrated sporting coupés of the early 1970s. Born from the Fulvia HF's remarkable rallying success, including the 1972 International Championship for Manufacturers, it offered the same charismatic narrow-angle V4 engine and eager handling in a more refined package, making it one of the most rewarding driver's cars of its era.

This 1973 example, finished in Rosso Lancia over a Nero interior, has been in the current owner's care since December 1982. That long-term commitment is reflected in the comprehensive mechanical work reportedly carried out over the years, covering the engine, drivetrain, steering, and suspension. The vendor rates the bodywork and paintwork as being in very good order, with a few small spots on the front bonnet to note. For those seeking an authentic, characterful Italian sports coupé with a properly sorted mechanical foundation, this Fulvia HF warrants serious attention.
