This was a completely standard 16V EVO1. Although I've heard some negative comments about Walkers they do have much better examples than the tat coming in from Japan.
I had well over half an hour with the car and I didn't like it. Not enough to blow £10K on it anyway. I drove a P1 in the afternoon and for me, the P1 wiped the floor with the Lancia.

In no particular order:
Lotus Elan FHC (proper RWD one, not the crappy FWD wedge thing)
Broadspeed XJ12 C (road going version, of course with updated running gear)
BMW 3.0 csl
Porsche 911 2.7RS (ok a replica, as they are over £50K, would prefer a Singer 911 though).
ABT supercharged Golf R32 or Scricco converted with a supercharged R36 engine and running gear for tottering to the shops.
I probably also should have a proper ex-miltary hummer incase it snows, and a DUKW for when it floods

My point is that Integrale on peoples lists I wonder how many have actually driven one. I didn't think it was worth the pricetag. They look stunning don't get me wrong but I didn't like driving it.

Al the last time I went for a spin in my 944, had a play with this:
he dosent need mirrors! lol
the driver looked like he was about 80 ish? good driver though.

1 - '59 Chevrolet Corvette - Red over White
2 - '90s Aston Martin V8 Vantage - Black with Plum Leather
3 - '90 VW Mk2 Golf GTi 16V - Helios Blue
4 - '83 Ford Sierra XR4i - Black
5 - Subaru Legacy RS - either Black or caged & in Rothmans colours
3 & 4 I own already, I'm working on the rest
There'd have to be at least half a dozen bikes in my ideal garage (RC30, 916, 750F4, FS1E, etc), so #5 could be sacrificed

I also base my argument on the fact that Ive had one, wasnt completely "****" admittedly but you have to be a bit soft to put one in your top 5 wanted cars.
