welcome mate, great choice of car and i hope it serves you well for years to come. cool

spend another £15 to join the club, you'll need the discounts for the "downs" that are inevitable, and it also helps the club to function.... wink

Hi and welcome to the PLUS club.

Make sure you add you details to the PLUS register Click here

You have just bought yourself the flagship model and most desirable coupe variant.

I am surprised though, you picked this up from Bristol and a "member" called HoveDan usually buys everything from around there these days!

Enjoy.

yes

definetly the youngest and best model out there. Great choice for your first coupe to go straight to the pinnacle of coupe models.

Now go check your oil smile

Hi Chaps... Yes she was from Clifton,Full service history...85k.. 3 former keepers, every MOT from new and a folder full of receipts.. Will try and pop to the Ace tonight, its only a 20 min drive from me and my misses is Italian so telling her we are going to an "Italian night out" might do the trick.
My previous car was a 3.2 V6 CLK and before that I had a 300zx twin turbo for 2 years(both as an Auto then converted to a man) I gave the coop a little blast on the way home last night and I must say... it felt quite a bit quicker than my Z !!!! :-)

Mate the amount of design flaws in the coupe and Fiat Dealership service, really clouds any comments in Fiat brochures lol.

There has always got to be a hierarchy ..... rolleyes

No, seriously

I went out in HoveDan's 20vis in Horsham recently, lovely growl from the exhaust system. Something you don't hear when there's a turbo over the top.

Horses for courses but the NA's will always be more reliable than a turbo charged one... Less to go wrong
