After too many years I'm back in a Beta  Grin not my old silver one, that's waiting in the shadows Roll Eyes

Collected this 1981 S2 FL 1600 Coupe yesterday, drove it the 100 miles home, didn't miss a beat, and put a huge smile back on my face Cheesy
covered 55,000 miles, very very tidy, only job to do before next weekend Lancia Motor Club AGM is to fit a cambelt.

Members may know the car, owned by Jon Gillingham for the last 11 years, the car is a absolute credit to him, with only a few jobs to do.
I may look into replacing the pop up sunroof with a Webasto sunroof ?

Look forward to attending Beta events in a Beta again  Grin

The car looked great at yesterday's AGM. Brilliant and broad range of Lancias. Plenty of Betas and all looked of the highest quality. Looking forward to the photos.
