I love my coupe's quirky little ways. For no reason at all, the air conditioning decided to work today for the first time ever!

When I first went looking for a Coupe 10 years ago, I wanted one with air con and leather seats. I ended up with one with just the leather seats and forgot about the air con.

The one I've just had from Rob has air con, but it didn't work. Got it re gassed last Monday and it now works woohoo

It hasn't been off since Monday laugh

I hope yours keeps working for you Annie smile

All the Fiats that I have owned, here in the sub-tropics, since the early '80s have had "air", except the Bertone X1/9.

But then, with the roof off, who cares!

Mine doesn't have air con, but it does have a button that makes a green light come on wink

Green light? What like a traffic light switch you mean? cool But if you mean the "A/C" light, that is orange. I've been meaning to rewire mine so that it shows when the A/C ECU operates the compressor, rather than when it shows that someone has merely pressed the button...

Adam's is a 16v model Dave so the A/C and cabin recirculation buttons have green back lights.

Had my car for about 8 years, never had the air con regassed and it was always cold as ice.

My aircon worked last year, decided not to play recently. Got it regassed to no avail, but new condenser sourced and installed by my local non-specialist garage and it's back! They were quite taken with a shiny red coop, parked it in pride of place right outside the front!

Of course, I will have jinxed summer, it will now be over, I'm afraid.
