난이도 & 준비물

With the benefit of 40+ years of hindsight, it was tired, rotten and driven by a lunatic. And yet…All these years later, I can still remember the battered red Lancia Fulvia Coupé that I would frequently see bombing around Prestatyn, my hometown. Its nose-down stance, the slightly other-worldly hum of its V4 engine, the sharp, crisp lines, the Cromadora alloys.(Insert comedy needle scratching across a record sound here)Those of you familiar with me from the Classic Cars & Yesterday’s Heroes thread may recall that I had a Triumph GT6 for a couple of years. While I loved it, I was finding it incr

Why do Italian car names sound so sexy?The Fulvia was named after the Via Fulvia – in turn named after Quintus Fulvius, who built it in 179BCE – which was a Roman road that ran from Piacenza to Rivoli, near Turin. The same naming convention brought us the Lancias Appia, Aurelia, Flaminia and Flavia. The British equivalent would probably be the Morris Newbury Bypass, Austin Mornington Crescent or Ford Heads of the Valleys.Buying an Italian car from an Italian was a lot of fun. Not only was I able to learn that it’s pronounced more like fool-vyah than full-veer as we Brits tend to say, but I also learned how Antonio came by the car.It was first registered in Palermo, Sicily. I haven’t been through and translated it all yet, but there’s a huge file of paperwork pertaining to its early life on the island. Most importantly, its original Palermo registration number is known: PA 393833. Antonio did confess that he tried to retain its plates but was unable to. I tasked my son, Theo, with researching and making a set of replicas as I am unwilling to spend what online suppliers are asking for “genuine” replicas. He's studying to be a graphic designer and I think he did a great job:We’ll use these for car shows etc, just to add interest.By 2020 the car had made its way to Tuscany, from where Antonio bought it during lockdown. He arranged a road trip once the travel ban was lifted. He went over to Italy with a mate and drove the car back, across the Alps. His mate has no mechanical sympathy and cooked the brakes, but I took heart from the fact that they had no other mechanical dramas.Back in the UK, the DVLA registration process was completed and the car entered circulation, albeit infrequently. Changes to the seller’s domestic arrangements meant the loss of garage space, hence the sale. Easter came and went, while I organised agreed-value insurance and waited for the owner of the premises where the car was stored to get back from Poland. I’d paid for the car in full, against m
