Recent full service including all belts, tensioners and water pump
Well preserved car inside and out
The Appeal
When the hot hatch wars expanded to the rally stages, the world got one of its greatest cars: the Lancia Delta HF Integrale. Not even the 205 GTI can offer enthusiasts the Delta’s evocative mix of gravel-inspired set up, classic Lampredi twin cam and charismatic Italian heritage.
The Integrale evolved the boxy, unassuming Delta lines with purposeful wider arches and stance. This very smart 1991 car is one of the early 8V catalysed cars built for the Swiss market. The mileage is very low - less than 67,000 miles - and it is pleasingly factory standard. It was recently imported to the UK and treated to a precautionary bottom-end engine (crankshaft & bearings) rebuild with new belts, tensioners and fluids added.
The sparing use is evident across the exterior and interior: this is a very well preserved car, the Alcantara and fabric seats presenting as virtually new. Equipped with a long, advisory-free MOT to March 2025, this is a great example of one of Italy’s most characterful hot hatches.

About Max Bids
The max bid process allows you to bid without any hassle.
Enter your maximum bid and we will then bid on your behalf to ensure you're the highest bidder - just enough to keep you in the lead and only up until your maximum.
Anti-sniping
Car & Classic prevent auction snipers from bidding in the last seconds to win an auction.
Auctions are extended by 3 minutes if anyone bids within the last 2 minutes to allow other bidders to react and counter-bid.
Auto-bidding increments
If your maximum bid is equal to or below the reserve price, your maximum bid will be applied in full if you are the highest bidder.
If you are the highest bidder and place a maximum bid above the reserve, we will automatically put in the reserve as your first bid.
Once the reserve has been met, Car & Classic will make sure you are the highest bidder using only the bidding increments stated below.
We will keep you in the lead up until your maximum bid OR the increment closest to your maximum bid, providing your maximum bid is enough to cover the increment value.

Automatically outbid immediately
When you place a max bid and are outbid immediately that means that another bidder has placed a max bid limit which is higher than yours.
You can bid again and we will use our automatic bid system to try and get you as the highest bidder.
Matching max bids
When there are two max bids of the same value, the one placed first remains the lead bidder.
Pre-authorisation
We may hold a pre-authorisation charge on your card until the end of the auction when the hold will be cancelled. If you win, we'll take a security deposit which counts towards the payment for the vehicle and isn't any extra cost to you.
What are pre-bids?
A pre-bid means you're able to place a bid before the official start of the auction.
You will be notified whether or not you are the highest bidder when the auction starts.
Problem with your bid
Bids are contractually binding. To help protect you, we have some rules in place if we think it's been mistyped. Please check and amend what you have entered.
