chris40 ◊ 2007-12-14 15:55	Lancia, yes, but Ardea or Aprilia?
DynaMike ◊ 2007-12-14 16:02	I'd go for 1937+ Aprilia (one-piece bumper).
pilou ◊ 2007-12-14 16:05	It is a Lancia Aprilia .These can be immediately recognised by the rib in the centre of the roof that Ardeas did not have.With the artillary type wheels it appears a postwar model ca 1947-48
DynaMike ◊ 2007-12-14 16:08	But what about this one: /vehicle_126413-Lancia-Ardea-250-1939.html ?
rpcm ◊ 2007-12-14 16:34	I agree it's an Aprilia but it's not easy to date it. The first 1937 Aprilias ( February ) didn't have running boards that were introduced in August that year in a Lusso version. Nevertheless, all cars received the running boards from August /September 1938 and it was also in the beginning of 1938 that these wheels ( from what is possible to understand of its design ) were introduced. Nevertheless, the running boards identify a 1939+ car. -- Last edit: 2013-08-03 14:21:23
