The Attractions
In the immediate post-war period, even Lancias cheapest family saloons were true masterpieces of innovation. The Ardea is a perfect example. Equipped with a compact 903 cm³ V4 engine and a five-speed manual gearbox, and featuring original opposing-opening doors without a centre pillar, it offered a uniquely elegant design that was much appreciated at the time.
As can be seen from the photographs, this 1950 Ardea is in very good condition for its age and is extremely original in every respect. We have been informed that it is also in good mechanical condition, ready for its next owner.
