1986 Lancia Prisma review from Sweden
"If you find one without rust - buy it!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Rear discs rusty, were renewed.
Hand brake cable had to be renewed.
Had to disable the seat heating because it was eating fuses.
Rust in the body, unfortunately.
General comments?
A very nice car of Giugaro design.
Good engine with good performance.
Very good handling.
Excellent on road, quick steering.
Quite comfortable.
I really liked this car, one of the best I ever had.
I sold it because it was rusting a little too much, a common problem in the Swedish climate and salted roads in the winter.
