Description
This specific example was manufactured on 31 October 1991 and was delivered new to Mr. Kaname Toyoshima of Naniwa Osaka, Japan. The car was registered in March 1992 and is accompanied by a complete Japanese service book. According to the documentation, the car had only one owner in Japan, who had it regularly serviced at the same garage since day one. We have a file containing invoices (see below), the owner’s manuals and several MOT inspection reports (like TUV/ CT). The car was exported to the Netherlands on 10 August 2015. We are now offering the car in the name of its Dutch owner, who has kept it carefully since 2016. The car is delivered with 16-inch wheels and tyres, but it is currently fitted with 17-inch wheels which give it a nicer presentation. The car is in its original paint, so no accidents and with its original black leather interior in exceptional condition. This is a very rare, low-mileage Evo 1!

Model history From the mid-1960s to the early 1990s, Lancia was a major player in international rallying. At the heart of this success lay the Lancia Delta, one of the most successful rally cars of all time. Between 1987 and 1992, the Delta won the World Rally Championship for Manufacturers six times in a row, a record that still stands. In 1991, Lancia introduced the Delta HF Integrale Evoluzione I, a road-going version of the rally car, developed for homologation purposes and built for competition. The Lancia Delta HF Integrale Evoluzione I was developed to meet the Group A homologation rules and marked the pinnacle of Lancia’s ********** in WRC. This model was equipped with a 2. 0-litre 16-valve turbocharged engine developing around 210 bhp, permanent four-wheel drive and advanced suspension geometry for superb handling. Known as the “Evo I”, this version featured significant improvements over its predecessors. It retains the 2. 0-litre 16-valve turbocharged engine, producing around 210 horsepower and 298 Nm of torque. Power is transmitted to all four wheels via a sophisticated permanent four-wheel-drive system with a central viscous coupling and a Torsen rear differential, ensuring excellent traction on any surface.
