The seller offers for sale this 1961 Lancia Appia Series III Berlina, an elegant Italian classic with a 1.1-liter V4 petrol engine, manual transmission and refined saloon bodywork. This rare Appia Series III was restored a few years ago, with the chassis sandblasted and repainted. The interior was renewed using high-quality materials, and the engine was rebuilt and carefully reassembled. With Dutch registration present, this Lancia is an appealing classic for collectors, enthusiasts or anyone looking for a charming piece of Italian motoring history.
The Lancia Appia Series III is a refined compact classic from one of Italy’s most respected marques. Lancia was known for its engineering quality, elegant design and advanced thinking, and the Appia reflected that reputation in a smaller, graceful package. The Series III introduced updated styling and remained popular for its smooth V4 engine, light controls and comfortable driving character. Its understated design gives it a timeless appeal, while its rarity makes it interesting for collectors who appreciate Italian craftsmanship beyond the more common sports cars. Today, the Appia is admired for its charm, technical character and classic Lancia identity.
