Hellooo,

After many months of searching and many years of admiring I am finally a proud owner of a Fiat Coupe.

I am based in West Yorkshire and hope to attend a few meets in the future. I already visit quite a few car shows and saw a couple of coupe's recently at The Fast Car Festival at Donnington.

At this point I was going to post a picture of mine but I can't seem to find the upload button.. confused

Welcome DD. wave
Easiest way to do pics is to use photobucket or tinypic etc.
What model/colour/engine have you bought then?

I have a green 20v turbo.

There are a few jobs that need doing.
I need to sort out the windscreen wipers as only one of them moves and she definitely needs a coolant change. After that a good service, hopefully by someone who is familiar with these cars.

480 on eBay, lots of mot failures needs a respray and some welding work along with many other mot failures. I may not if my mechanic gives me a crazy quote, am in 2 minds as the coupe is a stunning car. But I also have an Alfa GT 3.2 so already have a coupe. I would get her sprayed sprint blue, in homage to the coupe. (Prepares to be kicked off forum!)

Or I may store her and when I have enough drive space fully restore her and rebuild engine getting her up to around 500bhp...
