BB99 you have a PM...

What happens if you press the three dots, bottom rhs?

thanks to you all once more. I have asked the German supplier - but in the meantime the seller on Ebay with the Tipo has agreed to sell me his so it looks like I am all set. I am not too worried if the performance is a bit less so long as I can get the car working.

Yup after 9 years with the coupe, the itch has finally been scratched and I've sold it on to an ex-coupe owner (from years ago) today and reckon it's gone to a good home. Like myself, it's a familiar story of selling a coupe then returning again to drive one of the most distinctive cars still on the road. Like everyone one on here, there's been ups and downs with ownership but highlights gotta be Turin 30th and the Top Gear shoot the year before. Of course the shows were a great opportunity to catch up with other members and bore the public half to death yaking on about Bangles finest . But the need for more hassle free car ownership and having other priorities to focus on meant the difficult decision had to be made.

Keep the flag flying high and I salute you all keeping the coupe spirit alive

Thank you - I tried to embed the image in the text but I failed!

Hi Nigel,

Many thanks for the detailed reply which is extremely helpful.

Part of my winter plan is to get a quaife LSD fitted as the gearbox will be coming out to resolve the shifting issue.

I’m also going to invest in a set of BC Racing RM Series Coilovers, unless you or anyone has an alternative recommendation. There is custom suspension on the car now, but it’s a least 15 years old so needs a refresh. Then focus on weights and cambers.

The brakes on the car are actually really good - Alcon callipers all round - it needed some new front discs and, because of the non standard size, the cost me more than I care to remember:

I will have a look through your thread too.

Thanks again!
Andy

Anybody heard them?

Excellent!

Can’t work out how to add pics, the full editor doesn’t have an attachment editor that I can find, does it work on mobile?
Thanks

Welcome Back BB99.

In January it would be two years since I brought my second coupe. Like you I sold my old scotty many years ago and regretted it.

Hi all,
After selling my green 20v turbo 15 years ago and always regretting it I have rejoined the club and have recently purchased a 1999 Portofino Blue 20v turbo on 89k.

It was off the road for a few years so needs a little tlc

This one isn’t being sold!

thanks to all and sorry for the delay in responding (I have been away).
Thanks for contacting the seller - has he responded?
cheers
