Only owned Coupés for last 3 years or so, but can't imagine not having one, though will most likely sell the other, but definitely not on the cheap. smile

I still own the Coupe I bought in Nov 2007, and very happy about it too!

Still got my Plus, bought in December 2007 with a blown turbo at 56k miles. Mechanically still runs sweet as a nut but cosmetically she's WAY past her best and needs a full respray so was SORN'd last month pending attention in the Spring. I've enjoyed every mile of the last 7 years (now on 118,500) and regard her as easily the best car I've ever owned, or probably ever will do smile

Hmm, I was thinking of getting an NA for the Mrs.. she has a hateful clio that just cost me another £400.
What could go wrong, right?

Doesn't seems as though much has changed , there are loads of reasonable looking coupes on ebay for around £1K this week. I know they'll need money spending but a look back through this thread suggests any money spent will not be recovered. Moral seems to be run one for fun not profit.

10 years after buying my first Coupe, I still have one and wouldn't consider selling, ever!

Sadly, Coupe and I are currently in different countries, pending a permanent move to France. At least it's tucked up nice and safe under cover in a warm barn...

I remember once saying I'd never sell up.

My plan on storing the coupe until I returned to the UK didn't quite work out as expected, 3 years in storage and I decided it was time for someone to be enjoying the coupe instead of it sat under a sheet. Do I miss the coupe, no. Will I regret selling the coupe, most probably.

I know, but I have no need to sell it ands it does get started up every 6 weeks or so when we go over - just can't drive it anywhere until I fix the gear selector problem (cracked nylon housing!)

Currently it's replacement is a long-wheelbase transit type van. Not quite the same, but better at transporting furniture!

10th anniversary this year for me and the Plus.

Had a slight wobble last year & considered moving on, however I struggled to find something else with the looks/rarity/style & pace so it's staying put now.

The fact that values now seem to be going the right way is a bonus too!
