That was the closest little yellow face available... not anger but ... a sort of  'hey, what the hell, it's just the same car, same design, same color, how am I supposed to know on what chassis is mounted on if there is no clue outside, wasn't that enough for a lock, why I do not just shut up and consider that this is the way it always goes if you don't find the right car at once, that is just a game'-feeling  ;D

A similar styled Coupé on the basis of an Alfa Romeo 2500 was also made.

Because the close angle of the camera, my opinion is it's an Lancia Astura and not an Aprilia.
Unfortunately in the last 2 years i didn't find a photo from another perspective to confirm it...

There is a rear three quarter edge photograph of it in Wim Oude Weernink's Lancia book. He says that it is an Aprilia (first series).
