Used car buying guide: Lancia Delta HF Integrale

The Evo I packed 207bhp and is established apart from previously Integrales visually by an even broader monitor and arches, as properly as a more intense wing. 

Then 1993’s Evoluzione II arrived with a last bump in electrical power, to 212bhp, and greater wheels (16in from 15in of earlier Integrales). 

Typically, the later the motor vehicle, the extra fascinating it is, and even though you’d have no difficulties shelling out upwards of £100,000 on an Integrale, it doesn’t have to be that way. In reality, you’re only £25,000 absent from proudly owning a rally legend. ‘Only’, of program, currently being contextual. 

For the reason that at least one more £50,000 would be required for a afterwards Evoluzione motor vehicle, the wise revenue may well very well be on the eight-valve and 16-valve types, whose price has not still risen to quite the very same lofty heights. As around the world need grows, and many Uk Deltas are being exported to the US and Germany, prices can be anticipated to continue on to increase, so get a person while you can.

What we claimed then

18th February 1988: “Sublime steering permitted fantastic management, although switch-in was astonishingly sharp. Flooring the throttle at an apex named up a person bar of overboost, but we in no way came shut to breaking traction.”

An owner’s check out

Mike Joyce: “I acquired my Integrale Evo ll in 2004 for £25k, and I’m fairly confident it is really worth a large amount extra than that now, so it has been a great investment. I have had fantastic exciting with it, masking about 4000 miles a 12 months. My assistance would be to obtain the best you can afford and steer clear of the appropriate-hand-drive conversions simply because they transformed the entire character of the steering with a various rack and they have pretty a bad reputation. Pieces generally can be seriously pricey, far too, so do store very carefully.”
