Which words or concepts spring to mind when you think of Italian cars? Stylish, peppy, flaky, vivacious, temperamental, intrepid, money-pit\u2026? It\u2019s a mixed bag, largely informed by one\u2019s own experiences with various makes and models, but it\u2019s undeniable that if there\u2019s one thing the Italian motor industry has always been famed for, it\u2019s a uniquely quirky approach. The loopy little Fiat 500 is one of the best-selling cars the world\u2019s ever known, existing for eighteen years over a single generation, and the Nuova 500 retro revival has been on the market largely unchanged since 2007. Over at Lancia, they pioneered such ground-breaking notions as the monocoque body, the V4 and V6 engines, and independent rear suspension. And of course we have the rivalry of Enzo Ferrari and Ferruccio Lamborghini to thank for the bonkers supercar arms race that rages to this day. Whichever way you look in the annals of Italian motoring lore, you find weird and wonderful creations \u2013 and the more you dig, the deeper the rabbit-hole goes.<\/span><\/p>\n

Having recently fallen down just such a rabbit-hole, we\u2019ve now managed to crawl our way out clutching a fistful of revelations for you. Taking a ten-grand budget, we\u2019ve pulled together five peculiar options to wow your neighbours and plaster a smile across your face. Will these cars work faultlessly on a daily basis? Ah, we can\u2019t promise that. But in the world of the \u00a310k Italian oddity, whimsy and adventure are 100% guaranteed. <\/span><\/p>\n

Lancia Dedra Integrale<\/b><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

\"carandclassic,<\/a><\/p>\n

No, that isn\u2019t a typo. While every petrolhead and their dog has a deep-seated affection for the iconic Delta Integrale, very few people are actually aware that its bootylicious sibling even exists. This is essentially a saloon version (or \u2018shatchback\u2019, if you\u2019re that way inclined) of the second-generation Delta, a car that didn\u2019t exactly mirror the folkloric successes of its forebear. The Dedra itself is an obscure thing in the UK \u2013 you can probably count the total number on your fingers \u2013 but the Dedra Integrale? According to the seller of this particular car, it\u2019s the only one.<\/span><\/p>\n

Launched in 1991, this racy range-topper used the running gear from the 8-valve Delta Integrale, its turbocharged twin-cam serving up 170bhp and the permanent all-wheel-drive benefiting from the Visco Drive 2000 traction control system. The LHD 1994 example we have here appears to have been lovingly maintained, looked after by specialists, and is tidy enough to be displayed at shows. That\u2019s a whole lot of Italian oddness for \u00a39,500.<\/span><\/p>\n

Autobianchi Bianchina Furgoncino<\/b><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

\"carandclassic,<\/a><\/p>\n

If there\u2019s one thing that characterises Fiat 500-based commercial derivatives above all else, it\u2019s the insane positive camber angles of the rear wheels. If you\u2019ve ever seen a classic Porsche 911 in a workshop with its engine removed, you\u2019ll know the vibe \u2013 and yet these perky minnows run like this every day, ever-ready to take an improbably huge cargo load and squat flat on demand.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Autobianchi Bianchina was a range of minicars built from 1957 through to the 1970s, based on the ubiquitous 500, and available in a variety of bodystyles: you could have a Berlina (saloon), a Cabriolet or Trasformabile (roadster or convertible respectively), or Panoramica (estate), each with the dinky 499cc rear-mounted motor. The Furgoncino variant was a little van, available in either low-roof or high-roof form; it\u2019s the former we have here, a later 1970 model, and impressively its original owner kept it for thirty-six years. It\u2019s still only had three owners in total and shows fewer than 30,000 miles on the clock, which suggests it hasn\u2019t really had the hard life that most vans are forced to endure. For \u00a38,500, you\u2019re buying yourself a lot of <\/span>\u2018It\u2019s cute, but what the hell is it?\u2019<\/span><\/i> from passers-by.<\/span><\/p>\n

Innocenti Spider 950<\/b> <\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

\"carandclassic,<\/a><\/p>\n

Perhaps the go-to choice for a 1960s Italian roadster would be an Alfa Spider, but why follow the herd? The Innocenti may not have quite the pedigree, but it\u2019s certainly a conversation starter.<\/span><\/p>\n

Innocenti has had an unusual history since it was founded in 1920; a machinery and engineering works that has variously produced Lambretta scooters and Daihatsu-engined cars turbocharged by De Tomaso, and through the 1960s and \u201970s it was the Italian partner of BMC, allowing the company to build Minis under licence. It\u2019s this relationship that explains the trademark green A-Series motor you can see under the bonnet of this Innocenti Spider. This car was essentially an Austin Healey Sprite, with a fresh new body designed by Tom Tjaarda for Carrozzeria Ghia. The shells were produced by Ghia partner OSI, with the Frogeye Sprite\u2019s 948cc engine under that delicate and slinky bonnet. It wasn\u2019t just a cynical re-shell either \u2013 the bulkhead was relocated to allow for longer doors, giving it a more Italianate profile. The example we found for sale is a 1962 model in northern Italy; it\u2019s recently had a full restoration and looks pretty sensational. Keep your Alfas, this sylph-like sweetheart would turn Mrs Robinson\u2019s head.<\/span><\/p>\n

Alfa Romeo 164 QV<\/b><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

\"carandclassic,<\/a><\/p>\n

It was tempting to put an Alfasud in this round-up as they\u2019re right in the sweet spot at \u00a310k, but we simply couldn\u2019t resist this 164. Designed by Pininfarina, this imposing executive barge represented an offbeat choice to the 5-Series that relatively few buyers were brave enough to plump for, but it was Alfa Romeo\u2019s insistence on turning the halo spec level into something that would resonate through the ages that makes this particular car truly special. In Quadrifoglio Verde (QV) trim, you got an oh-so-period bodykit, sculpted sports seats, and adjustable dampers. The crowning glory, heralded by those splendid chromed inlet pipes, was the 24-valve 3.0-litre V6 engine, which served up a robust 230bhp and made a noise like a chorus of angels doing unseemly things to each other while the Almighty had his back turned.<\/span><\/p>\n

You\u2019d struggle to find a better example than this one, too \u2013 it\u2019s rust-free, the full black leather interior is unmarked, it\u2019s got the BBS-style Alfa wheels, and it\u2019s kept in a heated garage and doesn\u2019t go out in the rain. It may not be the oddest car Alfa Romeo ever made, but we reckon it\u2019s one of the most desirable. And that statement alone is enough to get you some pretty odd looks.<\/span><\/p>\n

Lancia Gamma Coupe<\/b><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

\"carandclassic,<\/a><\/p>\n

We\u2019re back with Lancia again, enjoying one of the strangest cars the company ever made. Sure, on the face of it, it doesn\u2019t sound that strange for a manufacturer such as this to produce a luxurious two-door grand tourer, but there\u2019s a lot about this car that\u2019s weird and unexpected. It\u2019s front-wheel drive when it doesn\u2019t look at all like it should be; it has weird Detroit-esque proportions, seeming far too long to only have two doors; it has a flat-four engine that was developed specifically for the Gamma even though the bean-counters at Fiat really wanted it to use one of the existing Fiat V6s. It\u2019s all so wrong it just has to be right.<\/span><\/p>\n

The one we see here is a recent import to the UK from Germany; it\u2019s had three owners, the first two being in Switzerland. It\u2019s rust-free, has an incredible history file, and received a replacement engine in 2001, when the chassis was also Dinitrol treated \u2013 since then it\u2019s done 16,000km and hasn\u2019t been out in the rain. For \u00a39,250, this is an excellent way into a very exclusive club: a car so deliberately weird, 95% of people don\u2019t know what it is, and the other 5% really, really want one.<\/span><\/p>\n

BONUS BUY: Lamborghini Crawler<\/b><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

\"carandclassic,<\/a><\/p>\n

We\u2019ve blown the budget a bit here, but we couldn\u2019t leave this thing out. You presumably know the story of how Lamborghini came about? Essentially, it\u2019s a brand built on spite and revenge: born into a family of grape farmers, Ferruccio Lamborghini had served in the Air Force in World War II which instilled in him a love of machinery; he\u2019d subsequently been doing very well for himself manufacturing tractors, and had bought himself a Ferrari as his daily runabout. However, its clutch wasn\u2019t great and Ferruccio knew how to fix it, so he went to see old man Enzo to tell him how to improve the car. Ferrari was enraged at the impertinence, snorting that he certainly wasn\u2019t going to take advice from an upstart farmer\u2026 so Ferruccio\u2019s revenge, in 1963, was to set up Automobili Lamborghini S.p.A. just down the road. The 350 GT was the first Lambo road car, and posterity wove a spellbinding web from then on.<\/span><\/p>\n

Well, what you\u2019re looking at here is perhaps the ultimate classic Lamborghini: a DL25C crawler from 1956. This was the first caterpillar-tracked model that Lamborghini built, and only 148 were ever produced. \u00a312,995 buys a lot of exclusivity here \u2013 after all, you could park your Aventador SVJ Roadster outside Harrods for the delight of the Instagramming masses but, since they made 800 of those, there\u2019s every chance that someone will pull up in an identical car. That definitely won\u2019t happen with a DL25C.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
