1999 Lancia Kappa review from Bosnia and Herzegovina
"A high performance bargain"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
To soon to tell, but service history of car indicates no problems up till now.
Recommended change of transmission belt at 80.000-90.000km rather than the 120.000km factory standard. This is a relatively expensive operation (400euro+)
General comments?
With near-on 162kW this car is powerful.
The interior is well-equipped, even luxurious and the external appearance is very stylish. I was looking for small car and ended up buying this as the price was so low. A real competitor to BMW/Mercedes at a fraction of the cost on the second-hand market. Used prices vary greatly so look around.
