A pristine, spoiler-free 1976 Lancia Stratos HF Stradale is crossing the block this year as one of the headliners at Broad Arrow Auctions' 2026 Zoute Concours Auction in Knokke-Heist, Belgium. Carrying a presale estimate of €650,000 to €750,000, the German-market coupe is one of fewer than 500 Stradales Lancia built to satisfy Group 4 rally homologation, and it wears its Marcello Gandini-drawn Bertone body without the aftermarket spoilers many examples picked up over the decades.
Chassis 001715, body number 1240210, rides in Rosso Arancio over an orange-carpeted cabin trimmed in tan cloth, a combination that reads as pure 1970s Lancia. Because it was delivered new to the German market, the car skipped the add-on wings and trim pieces later owners often bolted onto Stradales, leaving its silhouette closer to what Bertone originally sketched. The consignment includes a copy of its original German Fahrzeugbrief, the kind of paperwork trail that matters enormously to Stratos buyers given how many replicas and re-created rally cars circulate today.
Under the rear clamshell sits Ferrari's 2.4-liter Dino V6, tuned to 190 horsepower for road use and mated to a five-speed manual gearbox. Lancia built the Stratos specifically to homologate a rally weapon, and the road-going Stradale shared its mid-engine layout and much of its mechanical DNA with the cars that won three straight World Rally Championship titles between 1974 and 1976. That competition pedigree remains central to why collectors keep chasing clean, unmolested Stradales like this one.
Hagerty's Valuation Tools price guide currently lists a 1976 Lancia Stratos HF in #3 (Good) condition at $563,000, a number that's held flat over the past year, while its guide places 1974-75 Stratos HF examples closer to $743,000 in the same condition grade. Hagerty's sales data shows how wide the spread can get at auction: a 1975 Stratos HF sold for $975,066 through Gooding & Company this past January, while Broad Arrow itself brought $692,500 for a 1975 Stradale in North America back in March 2025. Hagerty's three-year window puts the model's high-water mark at $724,187 against a low near $29,714, a gap that speaks to condition and documentation more than it does to the car itself. Against that backdrop, this Zoute car's estimate of roughly $705,000 to $815,000 at current exchange rates lines up with what well-documented, unmodified Stradales have generally been bringing.
This is not Broad Arrow's first high-profile Stratos. The auction house also brought a 1975 Lancia Stratos HF Stradale to The Amelia in 2025, and last fall's Zoute sale featured a Group 4 rally-specification Stratos with genuine period competition history. Buyers drawn to Lancia's homologation-special era should also take a look at the Lancia Delta Integrale Evoluzione II, the rally-bred hatchback that carried the brand's WRC legacy into the 1990s.
Broad Arrow has not yet published the exact sale date or a full ownership history for this Stradale, noting only that more details are coming soon. Even so, the listing is a reminder that in a market crowded with recreations and rally-replica builds, an honest, spoiler-free Stratos with matching numbers and proper paperwork remains one of the more compelling buys in Italian homologation history.
