Warrior breed: 1982 Lancia 037 Stradale

If you have a lot of money on hand and a passion for classic cars, you don’t necessarily have to think about a car from the 50s or 60s.

Indeed, in the case of this car we must even talk about the 80s: at the beginning of that decade I was a child, it is therefore scary to think that 40 years have separated us from then: these are the years of the Audi – Lancia challenge on the rally tracks of everything. the world; the challenge arose precisely between the Audi quattro and the Lancia 037: road versions of both were produced necessary for homologation in Group B, for sale at a stratospheric cost.

Unfortunately, we still talk about stratospheric costs today: probably the cost, in actualized terms, is the same as 40 years ago. Let’s not forget, however, that this is a car produced specifically for racing: in fact it is a racing car although “blunt” for road use, and above all an icon of the glorious times of rallying. This particular car is said to have been restored by ex-Abarth mechanics, and is in fact like new. Find it for sale at £500,000 (today $654,000) here in Torino, Italy.
