In true Lancia style, the Stratos was initally a Motor Show car designed to showcase new Lancia technology. The prototype was first shown by the coachbuilder Nuccio Bertone at the 1970 Turin Motor Show, fitted with a Fulvia HF four-cylinder engine. The little coupé attracted much attention and a year later, again at the Turin Motor Show, the almost final version was presented equipped with a Ferrari V6 engine (from the Dino 246). The decision to produce a limited series of the Stratos was made in March 1971 to allow Lancia to compete in the World Rally Championship.
Thanks to great insights collected from Thomas Popper, a specialist of this model, we have been able to precisely confirm the authenticity of this Lancia Stratos. It came out of the factory on 14 November 1974 and was then delivered to its first owner, an Italian enthusiast, on 3 March 1975 (date stated on the invoice). Probably yellow at the origin (some traces testify to this on the bodywork), the car was repainted in sky blue (code 86980) by the manufacturer before even being sold new in Italy, probably in order to be sold more easily.
As was sometimes the case at the time, following a front collision the bonnet was replaced with one taken from another Stratos, a factory group 4 still in existence. Except from this element, most of its body parts are stamped with the correct number.
The car belonged to a Swiss national called Hans-Ruedi Egli between 1985 and 1989. It also appears on a picture taken at a Stratos meeting in 1988 in Switzerland, with the registration plate UH 37070U. In the 1990s it was painted in dark blue and then passed into the hands of Zurich dealer Lukas Hüni in 1996/ 1997, with the number plate ZH 233063, as evidenced by a copy of the Swiss registration document of the time. It was then sold to Japanese collector Konno Fumihiko and the car was featured in an article in Japan. The latter kept it until 2014, when it was purchased by our European collector, an enthusiast of rare Italian and French sports cars (Lancia, Moretti, Osca, DB...), particularly demanding and knowledgeable.
The car is presented today in a very interesting original condition and comes with a historical file containing several period pictures, recent invoices, a compression test and a FIVA identity card. With a current mileage of 68, 000 km on the clock, it has been subject to recent mechanical work totaling over 11, 000 € (invoices in the file).
A true aesthetic masterpiece designed by Marcelo Gandini, this Stratos is in an interesting original condition, with most of its original components. This is something to be appreciated for this rare model whose competition versions have long dominated the international rally world.

Auction estimate: €450 000 / 500 000
