No, it's not.
Well obviously I won't be paying 28K for it any time soon (or indeed ever).
As the link to the Porker shows - when you consider what else you could get for the cash it will struggle to make that asking price. But I suppose some eccentric millionaire might turn up.
I do really like the dash - I remember it featuring in a design magazine at the time.

That Lancia looks like a Volvo got raped by a Merc & how can anyone like that dash? it's utterly disgusting, it's only good point is it's not a stupid colour.

This shoddy piece of garbage has a one cylinder diesel engine. Is there really anybody stupid enough to want to own the poxy thing let alone cough up 6 grand for it?

That looks like one of those plastic boxes for keeping wheelie bins in. Probably as fast in a tail-wind too.

A doom blue Trevi was sat for what felt like decades on ebay for £3995? I think it was. Fairly tidy but I still felt rather expensive for a very niche car. The entire range at that time were, for Lancia dubious to say the least. Not really Lancia's fault, they were ahead of the curve and paid dearly for it. Road tests of the Trevi were NOT complimentary, you could get away with many evils ten years earlier on a cheap car like a Datsun but not by that time in a Lancia. Especially after benchmarks had been set by BMW and MB. That was Lancia's fault, a faliure to see that buyers demanded so much better by that time.

I nearly bought one of these last year. It was in North East France and just as rotten. Strangly that seller advertised it in English as well. Maybe they know there is a sad English bloke who buys shit rusty French crap. I think the other one was a Dyna though rather than a PL17 Parts are non existant so good luck to anyone foolish enough to take it on
