  One for the Lancia fans here, I've never seen this shape before but what great patina !!

Nice looking car, although not exactly a barn find any more.

I prefer the saloons to the coupes as they are much rarer now.

That looks lovely! I'm keeping an eye on it 

For those who might be interested, we had our annual AGM and rally (sort of '3ma for Gammas'  ) last weekend and there were two Berlinas in attendance and 10 coup?s. Not bad considering that the DVLA claims there are a total of 14 Gammas in use in the UK. I don't think that DVLA figure is correct but if we got over 85% attendance is not bad! Even if there's a few more on the roads we must have got at least 60% attendance which is still very good. International visitors came from Germany (John Gordon that some of you met him and his Gamma at 3ma10 in Germany) and from Japan! Yes, one of our members travelled with his wife and daughter all the way from Japan for the Gamma weekend; that's dedication for you. Even better he brought me a pair of custom-made (in Japan) front disks for the Gamma saving me a small fortune in postage costs

Made ?4600. Big money for a Lancia on ebay

That's very big money for a Gamma and especially a Berlina. A few years ago they used to go for just a few hundred pounds. I'm glad to see that the Gamma is finally getting the recognition and appreciation it so much deserves
