After 27 years - half a lifetime - of Coupé ownership, my last Coupé has moved on to its next custodian. My use of the Coupé, including attending events, has sadly diminished over recent years after suffering a major shoulder injury in 2022.

Having owned several Coupés (at one point, three at once!) it was a sad day watching my last be driven away. However, I have many moments to cherish, most notably the 20th Anniversary Turin event in 2014 and the FCSS anniversary meet in 2017, amongst various meets and events across the UK - making great life-time friends along the way.

My last Coupé has gone to an Alfa car enthusiast eager to experience something different from Italy - I assured him the Coupé would not disappoint.

Ciao!

Alan.

Wow - 27 years of coupe ownership is dedication indeed shocked. I'm sure your coupe will be in safe hands with an Alfa enthusiast.

Best of luck with your future car plans thumb

I'm close behind arm with 26 years of ownership but I have every sympathy with you - I can't think of life without one!

You've got the positive memories though and plenty of footage no doubt, not to mention the important bit about friendships gained smile

Who knows though, perhaps in a year's time.... evil

Hats off to you Alan!

Let us know how life without a Coupe is? Many feel the pull so strongly they come back to ownership!

Regards

MM
