Our thanks to eagle-eyed WCF reader Peter, who spotted some impressive similarities between photos in our recent article about the Lancia Stratos revival and previously-published pics of the Jaguar XJ220. It appears both sets of photos were taken atop the Pininfarina factory in Cambiano, Italy.
It makes us wonder if the owner of the mysterious Stratos is the same as the one-off heavily redesigned Jag, Sultan of Brunei Hassanal Bolkiah. Bolkiah is an obsessive car fanatic, who reportedly owns over 130 Koenigsegg units, 450 Ferraris, and 600 Rolls-Royces, one of which is the last Phantom VI. He also owns several one-offs, like the Bentley Dominator and the Bentley Java.
His collection totals over 7,000 cars. It would not be surprising if the Stratos was amongst them. We hope the car is not condemned to a life inside one of the Sultan's five aircraft hangar/vehicle storage facilities. It would be nice to know that the car gets driven around at least once in a while.

These two enigmatic shots of a Lancia Stratos-esque car have filtered out onto the web. Originally broken by Italian car blog Italiaspeed, the shots were taken back in June at Alfa Romeo's Balocco test track in Italy. But exactly what it is, nobody seems quite sure.
Rally fans, Lancisti and those with good memories may remember the Fenomenon Stratos concept from the 2005 Geneva motor show (bottom right), and this seems to be the best bet for the original source of the new car, although the nose appears to have been mildly redesigned.
Chris Hrabelek, the man behind the Fenomenon Stratos, still owns the rights to the name, but as far as we can make out the project is a one-off for a wealthy enthusiast, rather than a revival of the original series production plans for the Fenomenon car.
As for the drivetrain and chassis, the situation is as clear as the fuzzy spy shots. The general consensus seems to be that the Stratos will use a Ferrari V8 and a chopped-down Ferrari chassis, though whether these will come from a 360 Challenge Stradale, an F430 or even an F430 Challenge racer is unclear.
An F430 basis seems most sensible, but even though the use of the Balocco facility means the project has Fiat Auto's implicit approval, it's unlikely that neither Fiat, Ferrari nor Lancia will have anything more than a tangential involvement with the project.
On the other hand, these could just be the first images of an Alfa 8C-style halo car for Lancia. Here's hoping...
