Damn I just called for this on Autotrader!

Lady said she must have had over 30 calls within 1 week and claimed it sold within hours; you were quick mate, I would have had that.

Lovely car. She thinks she underpriced it; I was like, errrr,....

Let me know when you want it sold lol. Well done!

I was second dibs on this apparently, missed it as you placed the deposit without seeing it....he also wanted rid of it as he was going on holiday and then moving house I think.

I consoled myself with going out and treating myself to the GTV6 with Q2 and all the other goodies which I have been after for a while.

I was going to get the chrono back to mint and then park it in the garage for high days and holidays. Always liked the chrono great colour.

Is that damage on the front bumper, couldn't make it out from the pics?

Exactly.......still I don't know anyone going to buy a car that would say, "you have under-priced this, let me give you another £4K as I feel bad"



The sort of thing one does when living in Istanbul as I do, so we can add to the cost a return flight from Istanbul.

Yes the front bumper is damaged so needs replacing. The car will be mint soon, it's mint now, just needs some TLC.....

Good choice of car the Alfa with Q2, I'd go for one of them if I didn't have a crono coupe.....mwhahahahahaha

Now, now, Patch, calm down. You know what the nice nurse said about not taking your pills!

“A man's health can be judged by which he takes two at a time - pills or stairs.”

Great colour on an LE!

You know, I think it makes the car look more modern?!? Somehow?

Nice find

Shame about the sunroof though!

Nah, makes it even rarer all the options ticked.
A bugger if you want to take it on the track though, it lower the inside roof lining by about 2"

Sunroof is a definite no for me. Got one on the Sedici. Spoils the lines of the Coupe for me.

Couldn't buy a Coupe with one, as you say the roof is too low. Still its not an issue as they are so rare!

Ah! This one is a top of the range, quality Webasto. It's been fitted afterward.

Absolutely no leaks, It does not lower the roof, has 3 tilt positions and slides all the way back. The electrics are a tab up in-front of the glass, not down by the dash where there is no button (as per factory roof models).

Actually, this is the first coupe I've had with a sunroof and I must say I like it.

Also, quick question, just how many cronos' are in the UK? Does anyone know this?

Lovely find Phil, did uncle Joe dig this one up?

LE register link + info

169 LE's - inc. x6 written off:

14 Crono
26 Vinci
31 Steel
42 Red
44 Black


6 x LE's also registered here with colour unknown.

and not all 14 are in the UK....

I know Evo and MCMike have Chrono's

Don't think I know of anyone else?

Great, I need some bragging facts. But I need 'facts' for this I assumed there was three in the UK too.

Here you go patch - the ones we know about that have been declared on here:

LE0001 Mr Colonques in Spain
LE0083 Unknown
LE0091 Unknown
LE0092 LEMan (T plate)
LE0099 patch234
LE0105 evo_number_one
LE0106 Aames
LE0132 MCMike
LE0148 Unknown
LE0149 Unknown
LE1009 shaky20vt
LE1137 in Italy
LE1150 chaser

and

LE0605 was in Japan but written off

I still have the front bumper of one which went for scrappage a few years ago.

Don't know the number - the owner kept the plaque.

I met someone at a meet in Blackpool a couple of years ago, with a Chrono.
Can't remember his name on here though.

Shaky20vt has a tidy chrono too.

So, the UK Chrono count stands at 4?

Common as muck


(What type of muck? Rocking horse)

Theres at least one other - I posted on here years ago about one of the nicest Coupesters I've ever seen which was a Crono.
It was just going on to the Higher Ferry at Dartmouth and evaded my desperate run to meet the owner. The car was registered T20V LE - mentioned it on here several times but never found the owner..............
Its still listed and taxed on the DVLA website so is still around. I think we have to presume that unless otherwise stated the cars on the LE register are in the UK - so yes common as muck as around 11..........

What a familiar number plate! Still wondering what the S in mine might stand for. I think only the red ones could be called common.

LE207 Vinci Grey 123k @ Aug 2013 (S Plate) - Patch234

You competing with MCMike patch?!!

Not too sure if this one was a wise purchase just yet Nello. Will discuss this on it's own project thread later......
