For Sale: 1983 Lancia Beta VX Coupé – Azzurro Metallizzato – Exceptional Original Example
This stunning and unrestored Lancia Beta VX Coupé is a rare find, featuring the Roots-derived Volumex supercharger. Believed to be one of just 1,261 (or 1,272) built with the 135bhp power unit, it delivers 152lb/ft of torque at just 3,000rpm – making it as enjoyable to drive as it is to admire.
Imported from Italy in 2019 and UK-registered in 2020, this car has been exceptionally well cared for. Highlights include:
Beautiful condition: Crisp shut-lines, excellent panel gaps, and a gleaming Azzurro Metallizzato finish reflecting low mileage.
Well preserved: Fully Waxoyl injected and protected (2014), with supporting bore-camera CD.
Mechanical care: Belts replaced ~4 years ago, new fuel lines, ultrasonic-cleaned 36 DCNF carburettor, and flawless Volumex unit.
Upgrades & originality: New original-type silencer, factory mirror, and quarter light. Brake master cylinder rebuilt with new seals.
Clean engine bay: Immaculate, dry, and tidy – a real showpiece.
Documentation: Original Italian registration papers, Carta di Circolazione, Lancia Storiche Heritage Certificate of Origin, full Italian Revisione history, MoT valid until 18/08/2025, and complete handbooks/manuals.
Proven provenance: Featured in Auto Italia magazine (Oct 2023), praised as being in “exceptional condition.”
This is a rare opportunity to acquire one of Lancia’s most desirable modern classics, in outstanding original condition with a fascinating history.
