my fourth one was a Lancia Delta HF Integrale Evo 3 from 1992
1992 would be an evo I, wouldn’t it? And anything newer would be an evo 2?
There was only one Evo 3, in prototype form
http://www.evo.co.uk/lancia/integrale/13132/lancia...
:-) not sure, I have it noted as a EVO 3 do not know why...So I guess that type EVO with the longer wheel arches? or how you call those, is the EVO 1?
long time ago I wrote that down, maybe I thought, Lancia Delta HF Turbo, the Lancia Delta HF Turbo Integrale and then the Lancia Delta HF Integrale Evo (so third) haha, can't remember. So its a EVO 1? then I can change that in my old notes.

Neat 144 in Clerkenwell today. Strange, I thought all 144's had a "slidy bar" speedo but this one had a nice array of period clocks.

Very nice, I wonder if the dash is standard?

The car looks lowered, possibly banded steel wheels and a MOMO steering wheel, so subtly modified.

That's a 512BB. Funny how the "big" Ferrari supercar of the day looks so diddy against the car next to it. It's barely as high as the new car's waistline.
Agree !
Presumably people are getting fatter to fill the increased size of latest designs.

Excuse the crappy photo, saw this driving through Basingstoke earlier, with an identical one in front, both on foreign plates.

Not a Porsche expert, are they the 356? Looked absolutely gorgeous

Yes something's up. In doesn't have any front indicators for a start. It should look like this.

Are they in the sidelight cluster? They appear to possibly have two elements compared with the obvious single element in the later photo.

+1 yes

Subtly modified into the side light cluster I'd suspect, looking at it.

I think this is an ex-works car?

Those two are both owned by the same guy. The Evo 2 has been recently restored, whereas the Turbo 2 is more original, but still in fine and original low mileage fettle. Having spoken to him, he has a very similar car history to myself, but also has some very high-end stuff (eg. Porsche 918).

I think a couple of the national championship cars were (e.g. Russell Brookes?), but for sure all the works team cars were LHD. Is there a registration number for this one?
