Well I just drove it to Tesco and having driven the Focus all day, I didn't get any buzz from the coupe, not like when getting in it after the Punto...eeeek, too similar as I feared! shocked Also, no quick clear screen, a less good ride, **** tuning circle and inefficient heating...crazy

Yes, that is true but the Focus ain't too shabby either...The coupe is a car to be driven, not a piece of art to sit outside my drab house crazy

Pitty I'm so far away, as you would have been more than welcome to store it under a car cover at mine until the weather picked up, I kept mine off the road for 11 months a while back with no ill effects and starting regularly and an oil/filter change.

I can't see prices picking up a great deal to be honest but shifting it in the summer would be a lot less hassle I think.

I will of course make the effort to drive it regularly, just seems a shame when someone else could get enjoyment out of it I've had about 5 years of coopdom on and off smile

it does look a stunning car and I've been on here as a lurker regularly (not a prolific poster) and know how much you lavish your coupes.

You could try selling it to a dealer like Solo Italia, they'll probably only give you book but it might be worth seeing what they will offer.
