Description
Lancia ArdeaI rare interesting and in good usable order it has been with the prior keeper since 2018, The car is shown on the Registration Certificate as first registered on 1st January 1948. However I also include documents from the Registro Storico Lancia and also the former archivist of the UK Lancia Motor Club which show that the car was actually manufactured m 1942. It is believed that it was probably appropriated by the Germans during the war and returned to its former owners in 1947 and was then probably re-registered hence the 1948 date of registration. I believe this is a common issue with cars in Italy that were returned to previous owners after the war was over. a reconditioned starter motor fitted in October 2023 and also earlier that year .
