Appia...
...it wasn't an Appia I regret, but a silver Fulvia Zagato Sport...I rationalise it by saying it was a steel one, it is fwd, not enough room, only 1.3, spares in the pre-Internet era....
Though I have driven an Appia (pillarless) 4 door and beautiful little Appia convertible. That era of Lancia was very special.
My sedate and modest sunday ....
This morning we left for a concours d'elegance near Antwerp .... in a friends twin clutch 4wheeldrive turbocharged foolproof high horsepower car ... .. talking about a 'bad' start Once arrived i felt a bit better ... Seems like a nice place .... Apparentl...

A perfect Sunday.
Always like a gathering of great cars. Really like the Dino in the parking lot. Thanks for sharing. JerryW

Martini and registered cars and I'm happy man :) Thank you for amazing report and very very beautiful pictures Best D
You had a great day, for sure.
Hopefully your wife as well, can´t say it from the pictures ;-) New camera or just different style to shoot? Anyway, I like it :-) Thanks a lot, for sharing! Oliver
I had a great day :-)
My wife had to undergo the whole 'thing' :-) ... . Still using my recently acquired LX-7 .. it has a nice button like a painters-pallet and then i put it on'toycam-effect' .. that gives a very nice flue on the edges :-) ... . Most pics are simply taken in...
A bit more to the South :-)
My lovely daughter wanted a good camera ... so i gave it to her and all i can do is pray it will survive :-). Unfortunately there seems to be a new hype amongst the youngsters nowadays ... she bought a camera with a real film :-) ... to make bad pictures ...
Those two Lancia Zagatos...
...really show the change in the company's styling over decade. The Appia is just so right. But it was a Sport that I nearly bought many many years ago, but it was a steel one with the 4 speed....regrets... Great post, Bim.
One day ....
... We will all drive old cars .... again :) A true shame you didnt get that Appia :-( Filip

What a wonderful range of cars. I haven't seen anything like that spread of style and charachter since the Lancia 100th bash in the UK. Almost bought a Fulvia Zagato that day, but not quite!! Spectacular Tim
