The Kia Rio three-door is, realistically, the only car I'd even consider of all those shown. Put the 1.1 CRDI engine in it and you have a good looking car with low emissions and excellent fuel economy.
OK it's not thrill-a-minute motoring and probably wouldn't impress those with chav-tastic aspirations, but in the real world it's a car which you could use every day that wouldn't be an over-priced waste of money. I'd have one in a minute.

The new Stratos looks very similar to the old Stratos. And yes, I don't like the new Delta. The old Delta was similar looking to a Golf of the time, and that was what made it good. It was an alternative to VW. And it had more presence than a Golf.
However today, Lancia just doesn't have the money to do it all themselves. They had to become part of Fiat to get the ball rolling, and although the Lancia is built on the Fiat Stilo/Bravo platform, it is Lancia's own design.
Lancia's are not popular over in the UKthough. They aren't very economical to run, they are standard italian manufacturing, which signals to a lot of people that after about 3 miles you will be in a bush with smoke pouring out of your bonnet.

Chrysler isn't that popular either I know, but they have an established market in the UK, and selling the Delta under their badge will get the money in that Lancia wouldn't be able to
