The Appeal
There are few marques that have the reputation of Lancia and the Delta Integrale, for us, is the pinnacle of Lancia design.
With a sporting pedigree that is almost unmatched the Delta is a car that all petrolheads love. With its distinctive italian design and classic 90’s bodywork its an iconic car that is instantly recognisable.

Whilst it won’t turn you into one of the Lancia WRC winning drivers (46 WRC wins for the Delta), you’ll certainly feel like one as the 2 litre turbocharged engine pulls you towards a corner!
Whilst we would love to feel all four wheels cut loose as we slide it around a fast corner, we think that these cars are so special this is one that should be taken to shows for everyone to enjoy.

The Interior
- Highly original
- Classic 90’s styling
As you sit behind the wheel of this Delta you instantly know that this car is something special. The outside might be all flared arches and angular design, but the inside is 90’s heaven. The seats are soft and comfortable and with the coloured accents they are very much of their time.
Whilst the interior shows signs of wear, as can be seen in the photos, the owner wanted to keep the car original as possible and as such has not replaced anything (with the exception of the stereo), and we would have to say that they have made the right choice.
The driver's seat does have a tear as well as showing significant signs of wear, but the dashboard, door cards and headline are all quite good whilst showing a healthy patina.

This particular Delta HF Integrale is one of only three RHD versions that we believe to be in the country.
Lancia never produced a RHD version of these and the ones that do exist were converted when new by John Whalley Ltd who specialised in working on the Delta Integrale’s.

The Exterior
- Original finish
- Light patina befitting its age
- Striking good looks from any angle
The Lancia Delta Integrale is a striking car from any angle and one that is instantly recognisable. Finished in red with its bold Italian styling it's a car that's hard not to love, we’d certainly love to see one in our garage!
The exterior is in generally good condition for the age and mileage with some signs of wear, but nothing too significant, with one noticeable dent where the bonnet was closed onto the battery terminal whilst it was in the garage and some wear to the paint around the inside of the drivers door.
As with the interior the owner has kept everything original, the car is as it was when it rolled out of the factory, from the wheels to the paint this is an exceptionally original car.

The Mechanics
- A few choice aftermarket upgrades including front strut brace and uprated hoses
- MOT’d and ready to drive
- Runs well and sounds great
- Extensive history detailing the servicing and care that has been taken with this car
- Recent new tyres
The car starts easily and idles smoothly as well as sounding fantastic. The owner reports that it drives exactly as it should and that being a relatively light car with a 2l turbo engine and four wheel drive it’s certainly a lot of fun.
It has been kept MOT’d and any work that has needed doing has been done.
The engine bay is clean and the underside looks to be in good condition as can be seen in the images.
