  13. Hi there, yes read & re-read your thread no end of times! I think the vertical grille is a good look on a white car & it is more like the original Delta. I intend to do mine that way, keep the Chrysler bits if I can (I know it seems likely the grille will break but I can't face deliberately tearing it off from the front!) to re-fit should I want to sell the car on in the future. Also I only managed to find cloth headrests, not the correct half leather ones, but they'll do for now I think. If you can shed any light on wheel centres that'd be awesome as I've found nothing so far but 16", 18" or the darker SR caps. I don't have the Fiat Eper(?) software thing. Suppose I could pop the wings off the wheel centre caps & stick some of those 60mm badges on but I'd rather do it properly. Did you do your windows like Paul G did, I'd love to know how to remove the etching? Then last thing will be the chrome sill plates I imagine.
  14. Thanks for the kind words. A non-nav petrol SR in white with the black roof was my preference, then with Peterborough being not too far from Norwich it all lined up. I do think it is a tad pricey & he won't budge on that but there aren't many about & the mileage is probably one of the lowest to be found I suppose. Not that that's a priority for me but I appreciate it does affect valuations. And I guess he has to pay to register & MOT it, which no doubt I will be covering! I've looked through your thread about Lancia badging which looks great; yours plus I think nearly all of the SRs I've seen have the dark alloys but on this one they are just silver. Perhaps because it is white, I don't know? I also don't know which centre caps to go for, I've seen on here people saying they're specific to size but the 17" do usually seem to be darker. I have headrests, airbag, rear & side badges but I held off wheel caps & grille until I knew what car I was getting (if it had been a dark colour I'd have gone for the Momo grille), as it is I think it'll be the 'waterfall' grille & the light silver caps I've not come across yet!
  15. Hi all. Just joined the forum, in the process of buying a Lancia, sorry I meant Chrysler Delta 1.4 SR. This is the car mentioned in the Delta section, the 16k mile one imported from Guernsey on Autotrader. As a Lancia fan for more years than I can remember (& have an original Delta HF4WD to go along with this one) mine will be getting the full re-badging treatment like a few others have already had. So apologies in advance for the many questions no doubt coming along soon. I can't wait to get started! Cheers, Mike
  16. Hi, hopefully this car is going to be mine! The low mileage is due to it being a Guernsey car, so low miles but perhaps a bit more clutch abuse. I've put a deposit on it, just waiting now for the dealer to get a UK registration & MOT for it. I would say it hasn't seen many harsh winters and salty roads etc., however I suppose it has lived in a coastal environment as Guernsey is so small you can't really get away from the sea. I couldn't find any corrosion though, there's a tiny mark on the n/s/r bumper up where it meets the wing and signs of it being stood about (leaves & cobwebs around the under bonnet scuttle area etc) but other than that the exterior is lovely, the wheels & interior are pretty much immaculate. As a long time Lancia fan & owner of an original Delta this one will be getting the re-badge treatment to remove the C-word!
