I've still got a soft-spot for those bright orange Miafiores, with their black wheels & vinyl roofs

So, I was directed by someone in 'the know' to;

Wow.... Blast from the past there. I had a couple of the stradas and my mate had a 131 sport in the orange, Black wheels but spoiled IMHO by the terracotta velour interior. They Seemed really quick when we were 17/18  but wonder how they compare to todays standards.

Lovely Twin Cam Motors

Never had a 131 myself (but would have loved one) I had a standard Strada 105TC (1600 Twin Cam) and another with a Lancia 2000 Twin Cam fitted (poor mans 130TC  :lol: )
plus a Lancia Beta HPE (2000 Twin Cam)

Very fast in their day, would still hold their own today i should imagine.

A chap across the road from my parents had one.
Unfortunately can't remember if it it was before or after his Dolomite Sprint

Pirelli P6 as a standard fitment in a 185 section (if I remember..... okay the anoraks on now!!)
