Polybush Keeps the Lancia Aurelia on the Road: A Customer Success Story

Share:

General

At Polybush, we pride ourselves on our ability to meet the unique needs of our customers, whether they’re working on modern vehicles or restoring classic cars. This was beautifully illustrated in a recent project where we had the pleasure of assisting Adrian Donovan, Chairman of the Lancia Motor Club, with his stunning Lancia Aurelia.

The Lancia Aurelia is a classic in every sense of the word. Produced between 1950 and 1958, it was one of the first cars to feature a V6 engine and boasts a rich motorsport heritage. However, as with all classic vehicles, maintaining the Aurelia to peak condition is a labour of love, requiring both dedication and access to high-quality, often rare parts.

Adrian came to us with a specific challenge: he needed new bushes to locate the rear shock absorbers on his Aurelia. The existing bushes were badly worn, affecting the performance and safety of the car. Given the rarity of the Lancia Aurelia in the UK, finding the correct replacement parts can be a daunting task. However, at Polybush, we understand that when it comes to classic cars, there’s no room for compromise.

One of the advantages we offer at Polybush is our ability to produce bespoke parts tailored to precise specifications. Adrian provided us with the dimensions of the bushes he required, and we set to work. Our team’s expertise, combined with our extensive stock of high-quality polyurethane materials, meant that we were able to produce exactly what was needed – not just in terms of size, but also in the correct grade of material.

Polyurethane bushes are known for their durability and performance, especially when compared to traditional rubber alternatives. They offer improved resistance to wear and tear, meaning they last longer and perform better under the stresses of driving. For a classic car like the Lancia Aurelia, this is particularly important as it helps to maintain the vehicle’s original handling characteristics while providing a longer-lasting solution.

Adrian’s feedback was a testament to the precision and quality we strive to achieve with every project. He reported that the new bushes were a perfect fit, and he was able to install them with ease. With the new bushes in place, his Aurelia’s rear shock absorbers were once again functioning as they should, restoring the car’s ride comfort and handling. Adrian was kind enough to share his satisfaction, stating, “I was able to fit them easily, and the car is back on the road, with shock absorbers now working well.”

This is exactly the kind of outcome we aim for at Polybush. We know that our customers, especially those who own classic cars, have high expectations – and rightly so. These vehicles are more than just modes of transport; they’re pieces of automotive history, and their owners are often deeply passionate about preserving their performance and character. That’s why we go the extra mile to ensure that every product we produce meets the highest standards of quality and performance.

For those unfamiliar with the Lancia Aurelia, it’s worth noting that this model was a pioneering vehicle in many respects. It was the first production car to feature a V6 engine, and it also introduced innovations like a rear-mounted transaxle and independent rear suspension. These advancements contributed to the Aurelia’s success in motorsport, including a famous victory in the Mille Miglia. Today, the Aurelia is cherished by collectors and enthusiasts for its engineering excellence and elegant design.
