I have once again taken an interesting book from the shelf. The memories of Geoff Owen, who started a career as car salesman in England after the war. It is a good, and often funny, read. Of special interest to english Beta owners are the pages on his Lancia dealership during the great rust scare.
I shall only quote two sentences : « Lancias were to prove the most reliable cars I have owned, sold or driven in my lifetime. They were also, without any doubt, the cars most enjoyed by any single group of valued customers »
For those wishing to know what he thought about most of the other Lancia dealerships, and on the British Motors Corporation, buy it at your friendly motoring bookshop:
