With a chiseled Giorgetto Giugiaro-designed exterior, spacious cabin and advanced features, the Lancia Delta became a popular hatchback for those who desired practicality with a dose of style. Yet it wasn't long before the sporting characteristics of the Delta were ramped up; firstly with the understated HF and then with the much faster and sportier-looking HF Turbo.
 
This 1989 HF Turbo is a later model, with an additional ten horsepower (140hp) to complement its eight-hole Cromodora alloy wheels, 'turbo' side skirts and red 'HF Turbo' scripts. Its gloss red paint retains its sheen, and the correct two-color pinstripes along the body sides are present.
 
Inside, the interior is equally well-presented and complete, having been renewed with original components sourced from Italy. The seller states that all electrical systems and instruments are in "excellent working order".

The seller has owned the car since late 2020; they state they have used it sparingly, serviced it regularly, and kept it in dry storage when not in use. They state that the car comes with an excellent history file.

This is an outstanding example of a hot hatch that is hard to find in right-hand drive, UK-spec. Its punchy performance, pedigree and evocative form will make whoever is lucky enough to next own it very happy.

 

BEFORE YOU BUY 

This sale is subject to the Car & Classic Terms and Conditions. By bidding and/or making an offer, you also agree to the following: 

✓ The seller is registered as a private seller, which means consumer rights stemming from EU consumer protection law do not come into effect. However, you are still covered by Car & Classic's own Terms and Conditions. 

✓ We request that a non-refundable fee  be paid if you are the lucky winning bidder at auction or if your offer is accepted. Please refer to our helpful FAQs and T&Cs for specific rates. 

✓ This vehicle is "Sold As Seen", on an "As Is Where Is" basis and without warranty. Photos and descriptions are solely for guidance purposes, and it's customary to carry out a full inspection of the vehicle prior to purchase for your own peace of mind. 

✓ VAT is included in the buyer's fee. VAT may or may not be included in the final bid or offer price, as specified in the listing. 

✓ We want a smooth transaction just as much as you do, and as such we run all UK-registered cars and motorbikes for sale on Car & Classic through an online HPI check to verify that they show no insurance database markers for damage or theft, and have no financing owing, allowing you to bid with confidence. 

✓ We also check whether vehicles are recorded as being written off as part of an insurance total loss claim at the time an advert is placed on Car & Classic, and we helpfully provide write-off category labels (Cat C/D/S/N) for your assistance. However, the presence or absence of a label does not guarantee the vehicle's status, and it is always worthwhile carrying out your own  full vehicle history check before making an offer on a vehicle. 

✓ Buyers are responsible for vehicle collection 

or delivery. Importing vehicles may result in additional customs duties and import taxes, so it's worth checking beforehand. It is the bidder's responsibility to confirm import eligibility prior to purchase. 

✓ Unless stated otherwise, you must assume that any cherished, personalized, or heritage vehicle registration is not included in the sale of a vehicle.
