5-speed gearbox. Larger Girling calipers and pads.
LANCIA FULVIA £1,399 (incl. P.T.)
Ever since the House of Lancia was founded in 1908 by racing driver Vincenzo Lancia (his wealthy father made canned soup!) it has remained faithful to technical unconventionality. Since the 'twenties there has always been a narrow-angle V4 in the Lancia catalogue, and the 1.3-litre Fulvia is the latest saloon model of the type. Like the Flavia (with 'flat-four' engine), the Fulvia has front wheel drive, and the boxy four-door body provides exceptional space for four, in unusually comfortable seats. In spite of its modest engine size the Fulvia can reach 100 m.p.h.
London Show review
Coupé serie 2 features 5-speed gearbod, bigger brakes and facelifted (all-steel on the HF) body with full width grille. The Lusso has an extra trim, radio and fitted with bumpers. Mostly produced for export.
1600 HF
1600 HF
5-speed gearbox, revised suspension geometry, taller ride height, an alternator in place of the previous dynamo, a taller final drive compared to coupés, and wider tyres. The body is now all-steel, and seats 2+2 passengers. Some of the Zagato's most unusual features are lost: the bonnet is now hinged at the front, and the spare wheel compartment hatch is deleted. Several other changes set the second series apart from the first: new driving lights, side mirror moved from the wing to the door, larger bullet-shaped tail lights from the Peugeot 204, and stamped steel wheels without hubcaps.

LANCIA FLAVIA 2000 COUPE £2,989 (incl. P.T.)
Since Fiat absorbed Lancia many enthusiasts for the oldestablished Italian marque have spent sleepless nights worrying about which way the Turin-based factory was going. After a year of the new alliance's existence, Lancia continues to build high-performance cars of the highest quality, and the 'flat-four' front-drive Flavia 2000 coupe which was only six months old as a type at last year's London Show, is with us still. Styled by Pininfarina, the pretty two-door coupe (with 16 cubic feet luggage boot) is powered by a two-litre version of the 1800 c.c. unit it used before its restyling.
London Show review
Rallye 1.6 HF tipo 818.540 variante 1016: 1969–70. Works rally-spec Fanalone, produced in very limited numbers. The most powerful Fulvia with a 1,584 cc engine producing up to 132 hp (98 kW) depending on tune. This was the version used by the works rally team until 1974, when it was superseded in competition by the Stratos HF. 45 mm bore Solex carburettors were used that were later replaced by 45 DCOE Webers. The cam cover had special blue stripe over yellow paintjob (HF cars had just yellow paint job).
