Hello and good morning Stefanel1,

sorry for my late reply, but on Friday the 01.th of August it was not
possible for me to enter the forum-website.

Perhaps it was an error of our network, because I had several other
problems with the web connection on friday.

> Lake of Garda, so nice !
Oh yes, you are so right. We spend 6 days in italy in July this year and it was wonderfull!

> it was a Delta II 1.6 LE with Alcantara too, indeed, very nice and

How funny! Jears ago, I drove a Lancia Delta (II) 1.6 LE, too.
The car was red and beautifull but unfortunatelly it was not in a good condition at the time I bought it and also at the time I sold it.

I bought the car new (not used) and was very proud but ...

I had very much problems with this Delta: Generator, battery,
ABS-sensors, engine-controller, electrical connection, ABS-controller and so on. I sold the car after only one year.

> I'll maybe take a Lybra next year
The Lancia Lybra is really a good choice.
But please don`t take the 1.8 litres fuel engine !!!
The V.V.T - System (variable valve timing) used in the 1.8 engine
is very susceptible and makes problems all the time.
The Fiat Barchetta uses the same engine and you can ask every
Barchetta driver about these engine problems.

A better choice are the 2.0, 1.9 jtd or the 2.4 jtd !!!

Do you prefer the Lybra SW or the Limousine?

> You're so lucky to have these free speed limit Autobahn !
Sometimes. Look with a 60 PS Lancia Y, you are not really able
to use this advantage.

My dream car is a Lancia Thema 8.32 and belive me with an 8.32
you are able to use the advantage of no speed limits.
But in "real live" it is only a dream !!!

Of course it will be possible to buy a used Thema.
But the following costs are too expensive !!!
Taxes, insurance, fuel, repairs, maintenance.
Like I said: "only a dream"

Perhaps I`ll get a better job at the end of this year (???)
and if this will happen ...
... perhaps I have the possibility to save some money for a new Lancia.

And than I will buy a Lancia STILNOVO:

> Do you have more pics of your car ?
Yes, but only a few. If you send me a mail manuel.simonazzi@web.de
I can send you the pictures by mail because I have no web space to upload the pictures.

Best Regards
Manuel Simonazzi

I had the Delta of 1995 with ony 75hp, no ABS. I had no problems in 25 000 km. Some cars have many problems, the best is to sell ot quickly !

I tried a Lybra 1.8 LX this afternoon, it' a good car, but not enough sporty compared to the 156, which is though, not a real sport car. The Lybra is very comfy, with good suspensions, nice engine "noise", nice interior, with alcantara, multi fonctions panel, etc.
I like the SW very much, but the sedan is nice too.

he he ! the Théma 8.32 ! we're in another world !!! but Total, Fina, Shell, etc. will be happy if you buy this car !
Personnaly, with the 156, I'd like sometimes to overpass the 160kmh, I do it but over this speed, you can get a fine that's why in Germany it's much more smart ! But indeed an Y 60hp will be more happy in the towns.

the Stilnovo is nice but, alas, it won't be available before 2006.

Hi Stefanel1,

> your mail doesn't work !!!

Of course not !!!

Sorry, it was my error.

The Mailadresse is: manuel_simonazzi@web.de

I used a point (dot) between the name by mistake.

But yesterday we had 38 degrees of heat in the office and NO
air conditioning system. Today the weather will become as hot as
yesterday.

It is really not funny to work at such conditions.

Greetings
