Lancia Stratos

Lancia Stratos, they were supposed to built 500 to conclude with race regulations but there are actually between 430 and 480 pieces built. The first 50 cars didn't have spoilers on the roof and the back of the car, Lancia added it later because the car was unstable at high speeds. The first 50 cars also had an air intake for the "climate control" at the left front wheel.

The Stratos really brought the spirit back into lancia for a while, and it still has the world record of most rally titles in the world. It was one of the last rally cars without 4 wheel drive.

Although the Lancia Stratos has a really big boot the car isn't very practical for daily use because it can be very hot in the cockpit and you have absoluteky no rear sight, the brakes are very hard and the electrics are a disgrace. There were many Lancia Stratos which burnt out because of electrical failures.

There were also 2 long wheelbased Stratos' made for the use on the circuit and there were also circuit cars with the ordinary wheelbase but they didn't handle as well.
