well, obviously there's the Box slash arches..,

but i've allways thought that if you made the Lancia Smaller, got rid of the back doors, and whilst making it smaller just simplified it a bit it'd basically turn out as a nova lol !

as it is, it has the same proportions and shape, just a fair bit bigger..

i recon my alfa looks abit like a lancia, just needs the hatch back and wide arches then it'll be spot on

jjjeez, i just read about the delta S4

"A innovative revolutionary design Simultaneously combining Twin Superchargers and Turbo systems"

one forsale on autotrader for ?100k !

burgo, we used to have a Cloverleaf like yours, was a very nice car, swapped it for an Audi S80, which was bloody rapid...

Another thing that was rapid about it was how quickly the oil made it's way into the water after everytime it was fixed ;-)

tbh most 80s hatches with box arches can look like novas thru pissed arches, s4 tho mmmmmmmmm gotta be one of the best looking rally cars of all time.

imo they are quite similiar! but the lancia is the old skool pocket "space shuttle" rocket,

the daddy S4 with twin turbo and supercharger! summit saft like 500bhp back in the 80's that must of bin insane to race capri's in! :D

i think they look a little like the "sporty" mk1 ibizas (with the factory bodykit)
