Title: Hello, new owner of a 1600 Coupe
Post by: Kevo on February 09, 2016, 05:33:42 PM
Just thought I would say hello, I'm from Poole in Dorset, UK.

I had no intension of getting another classic (I may have lied a smidge there) as I own a very nice Triumph TR6 PI but this just rather came my way and I have just bought a 1981 Lancia Beta 1600 coupé with 66k genuine miles on the clock and only 2 previous owners with full service history, loads of other paperwork and as far as I can see it’s a very clean car.

Few little jobs to get it in tip top condition but overall I am very pleased with it, I’m going to use it as my daily driver as it's only 3 miles to work.

So expect me to be asking loads of questions in the future.

Cheers

Kev…

Hi Kev

Very nice looking car and do like the colour, is it metallic or solid, hard for me to tell from the photo?

Thanks Rich, I'm very pleased with it. Couple of small things to sort out but it's nice to drive.

Hi Kev

Great stuff and well done. I see your from Poole! I will be visiting the RNLI college on the first weekend in March and if the weather is kind we will be in our Spyder. Might see you in the area.

Best wishes

Tim

Lovely looking car. My Spider was in the exact same colour; very pretty.
