..when you find articles recommending bargain second hand Coupés and they don't mention the Fiat Coupé.

http://cars.uk.msn.com/bangernomics/article.aspx?cp-documentid=12576005

Yes maybe I am blinded by the Coop's greatness \:P but even if I try to take an outside look the <£5k Coupé market I still can't understand why our beloved isn't automatically first choice (or thereabouts) let alone not even make the list

The Ford Cougar made it but the Coupe didn't!

The Alfa and the VW are ok... but the rest don't even deserve the Coupe name !!

I'm quietly happy they didn't put the Coupe in, the less press it gets, the better in my humble opinion .Keeps it in the tight knit circle of enthusiasts longer, and out of the chavvy hands ( he says, fingers crossed )

The 406 Coupé is a nice car. Quickler than most would think and quite nice looking. That Alfa looks gorgeous in that colour \:#

As for the Coupé beeing missing, what is this site? Who is the car writing the article? Some tart of an MSM chat site


F****** b****** thing...

The 406 Coupe looks really nice but it needs a V8 in it or something...
