Hey everyone.......just bought Coupe number 5 or 6 smile

Its an Ink black standard 20VT with 179k on it. Great service history. Has lots of little niggles and needs a good tidy up but only paid £900 and it drives great.

List of jobs:

Has a slight misfire and injector light comes on. Apparently the Fiat fault checker said it needs a coil

Drivers door lock doesnt work

New Windscreen

Stereo doesnt seem to have a switched live

Cosmetically it needs a lot of work but I probably wont bother doing too much

Feels good to own a Coupe again....especially one that I can drive around rather than just stare at it on the drive

Hey,

I.saw the ad and thought it was worth a look for a grand, but you beat me to it 😂 Probably wouldn't have bought it though, I'm after spending around 2k more and getting an already sorted motor. I just like the fact this shows once again, with the right service and maintenance these are good for very high miles!

Anyway, hopefully you get it sorted quickly!! Congrats on the coupe ownership again!!

Good price on the Coupe, if I'd not just bought one that one might have been very tempting. One of my favourite colours for the Coupe.

yeah although it has its issues and isnt brilliant cosmetically, at £900 I had to take it.

I will be using it as my daily until my new car turns up in about 2 months. then I will either put it away until I can afford to spend some money on it or sell it on to someone on here who can get it back to its best

In the pics it actually looks ok, just goes to show you can't really tell until you see it for real.

There is one here for £900 that looks good, if you fancy a trip to Glasgow: Gumtree
