Title: Delta HF Turbo on EBay
Post by: HFStuart on February 04, 2017, 12:08:18 AM
I know you see a lot of strange things on EBay but this takes the biscuit. £12.5k for a 2WD Delta HF Turbo. Now take a good look at the pics and see how many "age related marks and scratches" you can see.
I'd love to see the standard of the welding.

The seats look extremely well used for the claimed mileage, generally looks a bit yuk.

I think the mileage is more likely 147000 with seats like that and the leather worn through on the steering wheel!

I suspect it will look even grubbier in the flesh. Witness the rear seatbelt which looks really ditched in with black marks, how often would they have been used?

Also no photo of the engine........!

I always find that the tyre brand give a clue to where past priorities have been.

In this case difficult to judge as it's on winter tyres

Though in the photo showing the nice shiny tyres look at the o/s arch.
If that's not full of filler I'll eat my boot mats!

The back bumper doesn't fit and looks to me like it's off a series 1 delta (???) But I'm no expert on deltas could be wrong.

He has this one for sale too http://m.ebay.co.uk/itm/1991-LANCIA-DELTA-HF-TURBO-IE-RED-VERY-RARE-CLASSIC-/332096123811?nav=SEARCH (http://m.ebay.co.uk/itm/1991-LANCIA-DELTA-HF-TURBO-IE-RED-VERY-RARE-CLASSIC-/332096123811?nav=SEARCH)
Claims it has original interior but those seats are out of a carb car
