Used Lancia cars for sale

Lancia is a car brand steeped in history and can be found in the upper echelons of Italian motoring. With a unique and distinctive appearance that's been the hallmark throughout the company's history, there's nothing like a Lancia to get the driver inside anyone excited.

It all began for Lancia back in 1906 when the company was founded in Turin. Within a year, the company had its first car, the Tipo 51 which was later re-branded as the Alpha. Right from the start, the company was renowned for development and the Theta from 1913 was the first car to feature an electronic ignition and lighting system.

The 1930s and 40s were a successful time for the brand. The Augusta, Artena and Astura were important models from this period due to the further ingenuity they brought to the world of motoring.

Through the 70s and 80s, Lancia developed a racing pedigree with success in Formula One and Rally alike. Cars such as the D50 and legendary Stratos cemented the Italian marque's place in history and are still renowned as all time greats; the latter in particular won 3 championships back to back from 1974-76.

As a brand, Lancia is seen as high quality and luxurious. Since becoming part of Fiat in 1969, it has formed an integral part of the umbrella organisation and its cars offer a superior alternative to the affordable ones on which they are derived. This is certainly the case when comparing recent models, although similarities can be overlooked.

While sporty cars and thoroughbred racers are certainly a vital part of the company's history, modern Lancias are anything but. Offering a refined take on motoring for people who want to travel in comfort, sophistication is the name of the game. it's certainly evident in models like the Delta, Musa and Ypsilon which look fantastic in there own right.

Brand new models aren't exactly cheap, so buying second hand can help you save a decent amount of money. With big discounts on offer at Motors.co.uk, finding a used Lancia isn't difficult at all. You'll be able to get all the luxury and quality for much less, but don't expect to find a legendary old warhorse from the past as they are rarer than gold.
