No. But I once had a Lancia. That should count for something.
Excellent example (except for the equalizer) with click through tour
My car had the 1800. It gave me over 30 on the road, 35 if I kept my foot out of it. But that was hard to do. It also gave better power than the specs would lead you to believe. Part of that was my doing. The dread previous owner THOUGHT he was a mechanic. I got it cheap because there were six unrelated reasons it would fail to start or suddenly die. I found them one by one over the course of a month, half of them before I got the car home. I loved that car. It seemed to like me, too. I can't count the number of times it got me out of trouble or kept me out of trouble. the last thing it did for me was STOP!!. A bicyclist appeared from behind a steel sided Econoline I was following through a right turn and tried his best to get under my bumper. As always, my Lancia did exactly what I told it exactly when I told it, nose down, tail high. The cyclist seemed not to have noticed. A newly minted policewoman thought it a reason to arrest me. That is the last I saw of my Lancia.
Soooo... pbm... have you a favorite car, one you would take back today if you could?
