Just picked up this Fiat Coupe model at a car boot sale.

It seems to be sold by a company called DeAgostini.

Wondering whether to de-Barry it or just keep it original.

I picked that one up at the Bristol Auto Italia this year.

I was thinking about respraying it to remove the stickers, but decided that as it's only one of the "entry level" models It wasn't worth it.

Does anyone know where a can buy a set of 20VT wheels in 1:43?

Yep - but I ain't telling ya

I also have one of these, bought at Bristol too, mine's in for a health check at the moment, it's been running on 4 cylinders and the starter motor is sticking. Flea's looking at it, only charging £500.00 - a total bargain

As they aren't as rare as hens' teeth I think I'll do mine in Ink Black.

Why a Police car would have Pirelli and Total stickers on it kind of defeats me.

Haha excellent!

My 3 year old is desperate for a Coupe model to play with?
Anyone know a cheap child friendly version that readily available?

How about buying Nigels old sprinty shell and sticking it in the garden ?

Yeah, a 16v.

Oi, what is this? Have a go at Barnacle week?

I'm feeling fragile, I am, so lay off!

No 16v would have meant no 16vt.

No 16vt would have meant no 20v.

No 20v would have meant no 20vt.

No 20vt would have meant no LE.

No LE would have meant no Plus.

The 16v Fiat Coupe: The Coupe that all Coupes call faaaaaaather! (an IT Crowd reference there for fans of the show).

Is that better Barnacle?

Ey thenk yew!

if i remember correctly a merchandiser had these coupe models for sale at £20 at gaydon

remove the ariel (bit of filler ) Give it a repray, get patch to give it a quick once over and you have your self a nice little model

Ask AutoDS if they can do an LE kit for it?

Ebay linky

£30.50 I paid only £7.50 for mine.

They had 2 for sale at Bristol - I wish I had bought both now (depriving patch of the other )

I am pleased to see that these models are presented in the best colour too.

"normally it retails at around £45" yeah right.

Don't Bburago do Fiat Coupe models?

I used to have a superb, highly detailed Ferrari 288GTO model by Bburago when I was a kid.

Like this?

yeah.

have you had that for quite a while?

are the seats missing?

also, on the boot lid, are those grilles that go across bits of plastic?

It looks a bit like the seat backs have gone.

I got it from a car boot about 5 years ago for 10p missing the bonnet, hence the crappy paint job.

I think it was yellow originally which is really lacking in respect for one of the most red-blooded of all Ferraris.

There was a group buy a few years ago - prob 6 or 8 now I think about it. You got a model in your cars colour, with your car's number plate on it. I'll take a photo of mine - once my phone is recharged -- if i remember rightly it was £20 or £25 at the time.

would love one of those!

hahaha suckers you aint got one of these have ya?!

Are you undercover?
like DS or plain clothes etc?
