Based on one test drive from Walkers..

Try a drive in an unmolested standard car 8V, 16V or Evo and you might have a different opinion ( IMHO of course)

This was a completely standard 16V EVO1. Although I've heard some negative comments about Walkers they do have much better examples than the tat coming in from Japan.

I had well over half an hour with the car and I didn't like it. Not enough to blow £10K on it anyway. I drove a P1 in the afternoon and for me, the P1 wiped the floor with the Lancia.

Comparing 2 cars with 20 years of technology difference though. The Integrale is a different breed of car, some strange choices in the list of other people and I could batter half of them with idle chit chat but thats why they aint on my list.

In no particular order:

Lotus Elan FHC (proper RWD one, not the crappy FWD wedge thing)
Broadspeed XJ12 C (road going version, of course with updated running gear)
BMW 3.0 csl
Porsche 911 2.7RS (ok a replica, as they are over £50K, would prefer a Singer 911 though).
ABT supercharged Golf R32 or Scricco converted with a supercharged R36 engine and running gear for tottering to the shops.


I probably also should have a proper ex-miltary hummer incase it snows, and a DUKW for when it floods

Both cars are 2L Turbo and 4WD so quite similar IMO. And yes, the comparison is unfair for sure.

My point is that Integrale on peoples lists I wonder how many have actually driven one. I didn't think it was worth the pricetag. They look stunning don't get me wrong but I didn't like driving it.

1 - '59 Chevrolet Corvette - Red over White
2 - '90s Aston Martin V8 Vantage - Black with Plum Leather
3 - '90 VW Mk2 Golf GTi 16V - Helios Blue
4 - '83 Ford Sierra XR4i - Black
5 - Subaru Legacy RS - either Black or caged & in Rothmans colours

3 & 4 I own already, I'm working on the rest

There'd have to be at least half a dozen bikes in my ideal garage (RC30, 916, 750F4, FS1E, etc), so #5 could be sacrificed

Even their owners are **** because theyre incapable of realising this is "Non Scooby Related"

I also base my argument on the fact that Ive had one, wasnt completely "****" admittedly but you have to be a bit soft to put one in your top 5 wanted cars.
