Not the best low drag lookalike E-Type I have seen. Someone on here has better.

Ramsey, Isle of Man this evening cool

Apologies for the cropped pic, I had an excitable Terrier with me!
Just has a drive through that multi million pound line up myself!
Brilliant that the stand out car is probably worth the least!

I’m in agreement, the rest do nothing for me, DI is the one I’d enjoy driving the most. Childhood hero!
Me too. Supercars do nowt for me I’m afraid. The Lancia on the other hand… smile

They're captures from my dashcam - it's not worth putting the whole picture up. The way it's shaping it won't be working for much longer, in any case.

Spotted this Lancia at Hilton Park Services this morning. Only got rear view as I was driving past at the time. Quick search suggests it was manufactured in 1935 and 1196 cc.
I’m sure someone can identify model.

It does look like a Sammio. Surprisingly close, actually.
