Hi Everyone

My name is Kim from Fareham, Hampshire and I bought my very first Coupe last Saturday. It's a 20v in Scott's Green. In fact not only is it my first FIAT but also my first car. Hubby is into motors in a big way and owns a '05 Mustang and a GMC dayvan (like the A Team) so there wasn't much chance of me wanting something "normal"! LOL I've not had a chance to drive the coupe properly yet as it's due a cam belt change (which is happening Thursday).

Look forward to learning more.

Kim,

I've sold my coupe but Wal_S (Warren) lives in Fareham and also has a 20v VIS (non-turbo).

Warren helped me loads with various coupe 'issues' as he only lived around the corner from me in Portsmouth, if you need someone local to assist with anything, he's your man!

Thank you all for the warm welcome and the advice (oil checked on collection and spare bottle purchased)! It's good to know there are a few other coupe owners in the area although I can't say I've ever seen any on the road round here but I will keep an eye out.

Hubby's taking the coupe into Solo Italia tomorrow for it's cam belt change and a once over. Hopefully it'll prove to be as good a purchase as we believe it to be. <<crosses fingers>>
