1989 Lancia Thema IE review from Australia and New Zealand
"Fun"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Car was badlyneglected motor wise and was completely reconditioned and parts were easily accessible
Otherwise no problems
Great availability of bits here in NZ.
General comments?
Handles well with new shocks
Lovely to drive and few know what it is
Getting nicer to look at by the year.
