Ok, who's got them all? 120 licensed and 19 sorned currently.

This is a list far more exclusive than the 'limited' edition and common Plus models.

Other than Mrs CC's VIS, it's been a long time since I saw another. Lots of 20vts, selections of Vinci grey Le's and many plusii are often to be found at shows.

So, this long overdue list is to find who's got them

1) HoveDan, broom yellow 152k as at Oct '11

Mines on 75K. There was a really good rough Porto Blue that I went to look at near hear which I think may have been a VIS or perhaps not? It was an early one.

It was missing a chunk of the bumper where the exhaust had gone through it!!!!

Dealer said I cant test drive it until I said I was going to buy it.... It was already dodgy so I told him to get stuffed laugh

Some brief research shows that Fiat started producing the Coupe VIS in 1998 though not sure what month. Mine was registered in Feb 1999 so maybe one of the first..

A very nice car but Im currently looking to upgrade to a 20v turbo from someone on this forum so if anyone is interested let me know

Right, tidying up this list;

1) HoveDan, Broom Yellow 152k as at Oct '11
2) MattyB, Broom Yellow, 75k
3) CC, Steel Grey (20vt VIS Hybrid)
4) MrsCC Electric Blue 2.4
5) MrsKnight7660, Sprint Blue (RIP).
6) SpeakeyD, Electric Blue, 93k
7) Cjh, Kawasaki green
8) Alex1982, Speed red, 83k
9) brigguscoop, Moon Grey, 46k
10) Knight7660, wine red 130K
11) Chalky, scott green, 90k
12) Mick007, electric blue, 125k
13) DJA, steel grey, 75k
14) HoveDan, energy green, 74k (insurance write off donor vehicle sorned)
15) SteveLondon, Porto blue, 101k
16) Metalman, Speed Red, currently sorned

That's the lot spoken for on here so far!! Where are the rest?

And is Custard the only standard VIS mapped by FC performance? I did a straight line acceleration comparison with my energy green VIS (with a 74k lump compared to Custards 152k) and above 4k the gains were appreciable. And I've just got 440 miles from a tank driving mainly motorway at a 70mph average this weekend.

Quite possibly, but I guess only Flea can confirm. Come spring I'm fairly confident there will be at least two to thank her for behaving herself through the winter. Which she undoubtedly will of course.
