Anybody seen this car before?

Autotrader

Each to their own and all that but, I gotta say. I think that's horrendous

truly awful

Me too. Not impressed by the interior!

I think that looks awesome, including the interior. Respect to the owner for his commitment to the build and cherishing a Coupe.

Nothing a new set of seats wouldn't sort inside. Standard wings on the outside. But sadly the money spent won't make it a £13k car IMHO. If hed've made it look brand new then maybe. Can't fault the attention to detail though apart from the callipers.

Someone has spent a fortune on that retrim.

Bride seats are very on trend at the moment but not sure they work on an Italian car.

Looks smart IMO.

7k on the interior!

Love those seats for my coupe,hold you in tight through the twistys

It looks to me like a money's no object conversion and a very nicely done one too.
Providing the mechanicals are good and this was a ground up rebuild, then it's a fair price.

I think it's lovely, Really... Love the interior too, but the price tag is AGAIN just rediculous, it's not even inflated, If it was an Integrale, An Rs500, or something that has Ultimate collectors status (From say Motorsport heritage etc) then i'd understand,

I flipping love the Coupes, but the overnight 'my 150k 1997 20vt that needs work, belts & clutch is now worth £5000' attitude is just Barmy!

What about the Peugeot 406 V6 Coupe, Rare now and a long time competitor to the Coupe, these are £800 all day long now, I may buy one, Re-advertise it on Autotrader for £13,995

Concourse examples with barely any mileage will be true collector Coupes, Obviously the cleanest Plus & LE models in the Land too will fetch a premium in 100% standard guise. As per any high value modern classic.

Its worth whatever someone wants to pay for a MaxPower chav styled Coupe paying £13K for such is not vfm nor will it be a vehicle that is sought after in the future but as always each to their own.

I like it. The interior is a bit OTT but the centre consol, seats and door cards look great.

There does seem to be a lot of talk at the moment that owning a classic car is " a better investment than money in the bank'

Thats all well and good whilst interest rates are low but when interest rates start picking up people will start to sell their timely classics to put their money back in the bank and then there will be an influx of classic cars for sale and values will start to fall back.

Thats why I like the fact that Fiat Coupe values have always been steady. Not a great investment but they always seem to sell quite easily mainly due to sensible prices.

[LIKE]

With some exceptions, the car looks quite good.

Personal taste. Exterior is ok but would prefer original. I think interior is minging.

I think it's a marmite coupe, some will love it, others not.

The work on the car looks to have been done to a high standard, but nearly 13k?

The seller will never get the asking price.

I like it the colour really suits it, i know its not a million miles from the original Fiat colour!
I do like a fair few aspects of the interior reminds me of the mk3 xr3i's and S1 rs turbo's although i think leather will always look better!
For me what lets it down is under the bonnet for so much effort everywhere else and for a supposedly full strip down would of hoped it would be immaculate under there which it isnt! also would of hoped for somewhere around the 600+bhp mark for the price tag

As mentioned above if the effort went to make it an immaculate original car who knows could of already been sold by now!

I like this car. 13k though? good luck with that!

Thanks Chrissy,

You can buy mine for £12,994

It's giving me ideas for re-trimming mine. I have cloth seats, which I prefer over leather, but the drivers chair is showing it's age. You can't get the material new. Cloth seats for Turbo Plus' are rarer than hens teeth. So why not do the whole lot in black alcantera? I wouldn't do the center console and dash though . Having said that, on this car they look well done.

I like it - would have gone for plain leather trim inside though.

One big issue with Bride seats, unless you are a kid, or 12 stone you dont fit - at all!

I'm not normally one for modded-looking cars but I actually like that! Love the alcantara over the dash............Amazed if its not known on here.

If this was the original link, it's now on gumtree at £9995

I'm alright with that!!

Wheels look the same as the ones I had up for sale on here a while ago that used to be on my Coupe!

I love the term "genuine reason for sale" used in adverts.

What other reasons are there ???
