Lancia Flavia 1962

The 1962 Lancia Flavia marks an important chapter in the brand's history, as the first Lancia to be equipped with front-wheel drive. Designed by Antonio Fessia, the Flavia introduced innovative technologies for its time, including a flat four-cylinder engine and independent suspension. This forward-thinking approach made the Flavia a popular choice for motorists who valued both driving comfort and advanced engineering, characteristic of Lancia's image as an innovative car brand.

This particular 1962 example served for many years in Belgium, more specifically in the Antwerp region. During its stay there, the car was given a new coat of paint, which helped preserve its exterior. In 2024, the Flavia was brought to the Netherlands, during which significant maintenance work was performed. For example, the exhaust was largely replaced and the rear brakes were overhauled, which improved driving safety and performance.

The Flavia was praised in its time for its smooth handling and advanced technology. The combination of front-wheel drive and the flat four-cylinder engine provided a balanced driving experience, while the spacious interior and solid build quality took comfort to the next level. Consequently, this example offers the opportunity to still enjoy these features, while at the same time offering a glimpse into the rich history of the marque.

Although the car is in a used condition and shows some traces of its longevity. The combination of the original elements and the overhauls carried out makes this vehicle an attractive project for enthusiasts who want to further perfect the car or simply enjoy a classic Italian driving experience.
