The seller offers for sale this Lancia Beta 1.6 HPE from 1981, a station wagon powered by a 1.6 litre 4-cylinder petrol engine paired with a manual gearbox. The car was originally ordered from the Lancia factory with German specifications, including headlights, seatbelts, alternator, rear fog light and factory underbody wax protection, including the engine bay. It was used as a second car, always stored in a private garage and driven only by its owner. The vehicle was imported to Greece from Germany and registered there in 1986. The body has been polished twice, with minor correction painting carried out in original Lancia Blue. The interior fabric is in good condition, and all gauges and electronics function properly.
The Lancia Beta HPE represents a distinctive chapter in Lancia’s early 1980s production. Combining sporty design with practical estate versatility, the HPE offered sharp handling and Italian character in a functional format. Known for its balanced chassis and lively twin-cam engine, the Beta series appealed to drivers seeking individuality and driving enjoyment. Today, well-preserved examples such as this are increasingly appreciated for their originality and rarity.

Please note that it is not uncommon for classic or collectible cars to have received cosmetic repairs in the past, to rectify damage or refresh appearance, and this work may be hard to see even upon visual inspection.

It is a bidder’s responsibility to assure themselves of the colour and condition of a vehicle, including its interior and the existence of any remedial bodywork or paintwork, before committing to bid or buy.
