Lancia Beta HPE i.e.
I cannot tell much about this car yet. It is my most
recent buy. Its form is very similar to that of the 128 3p, just everything
a little bit large. Taxes and Insurance are somewhat more expensive,too.
Also the fuel consumption is a little bit higher, but the rust converter
consumption is remakably lower.

With this car you don't know any acceleration problems. It
is possible to accelerate well in the fifth gear even climbing mountains.
This should be self-evident with such a powerful engine. But with many
modern cars it is the case that an egnine with 4-valve-technology which
usually has its maximum torque at higher revs combined with a rather
long transmission, that keeps the engine out of out of that rev region,
so that the driver normally does not note anything of the powerful engine.
with the Beta fortunately it's differen. Here you get all power claimed
in the documents on the road.
