18.02.2004 THE UPMARKET NEW LANCIA MUSA COMPACT MPV WILL RECEIVE ITS WORLD PREMIERE IN GENEVA

Anyone who has lived in Italy or visited it even for a short period knows this already: a true Italian welcome is made up of many small and surprising details. Lancia Musa offers much more than you would expect of a vehicle of this type.

Firstly, a range of generous engines that can meet the needs of any customer in terms of performance and running costs. These include a 100 bhp 1.9 Multijet, 70 bhp 1.3 Multijet and the comfortable 95 bhp petrol-driven 1.4, the last two of which can be combined with a D.F.N. ('Dolce Far Niente') gearbox.
 
Lancia Musa also offers equipment more typical of a higher segment. Examples include a panoramic Sky-dome sunroof that covers 70% of the roof area with glass; an automatic dual zone climate control system that allows the driver and passenger to set two different temperatures - plus leather interiors and alloy wheels. These are just some of the items fitted as standard equipment or options on the various specifications.

A service package known as Parure Lancia allows you to travel without care. The new compact MPV also offers an exclusive package that allows you to extend the contractual warranty to five years after the date of sale or up to 120,000 km and also combine it with an exclusive roadside assistance service. The following are completely free if you break down: towing (even if you have an accident), mobile workshop (only in Italy), recovery of the car after repair, courtesy car, cash advance, sending out of spare parts, hotel expenses and passenger return.
 
If customers decide to sell their car before the five year agreement is up, they have two options: firstly, they can save on the purchase of a new car (Fiat, Lancia or Alfa Romeo) by subtracting a refund for the unused portion of the Parure package. Secondly, they can transfer all the benefits of the Parure package to the new buyer until the expiry date or kilometre threshold. This makes the vehicle worth more at the time of sale.
