Lancia Lambda Faux Cabriolet Farina
Chassis
Lancia’s first V-engined model – the V8 Trikappa sports car – appeared in 1922 but it was the Lambda, launched soon after, that would prove to be of even greater significance. A milestone in automotive history, the revolutionary Lambda was the world’s first car to have a stress-bearing body and the first to be powered by a V4 engine. The absence of a separate chassis meant the driver could sit lower, enabling a low aerodynamic body line to be achieved, while Lancia’s patented sliding-pillar independent front suspension endowed the Lambda with ride and handling qualities unmatched by anything in its class.
Vehicle Overview
A 2,370cc 7th-Series car, chassis number ‘16092’ carries faux cabriolet coachwork by the Stabilimenti Farina Company – Farina specialised in the Weymann system of body construction. Right-hand drive, like all Lancias into the 1950s, the Lambda was purchased in Belgium in 1982 by Stephen Langton, who sold it to the vendors’ father-in-law, the late Ron Amey, in January 1983. It was offered by Bonhams in 2018.
