Well,

After a long time and alot of work (not all by me laugh ) my coupe is back, it has taken me a few weeks to get this post up as the time has been flying.

She has had a complete respray refurbed alloys and new badges, grille and centre caps all round. I must say she looks absolutely amazing now!

I thought she looked good before but now she really is a special sight!

Repsray 1
Respray 2
Respray 3
Respray 4

I will post up some more pictures soon if anyone is interested. The bodyshop that did the work was John at EuroEast. He has now done my car and Nigels both to an amazing standard I completely recommend him, and I am a difficult person to please nevermind Nigel!

Lichfield just a little north of Birmingham so a good 150 mile round trip for me each time but worth it!

Have you changed the colour of the wheels? They look like they have a mirrored effect, almost chromed.

Those photos just don't do the car justice - the depth of the shine is just amazing - probably the best condition LE I've ever seen.

Like Nick says, John at EuroEast is a total perfectionist - well worthy of meeting Coupe owner's exacting standards.

I know Nigel frown

The pictures just do not go anywhere near to showing the condition of the car, I have tried to get some pictures that do but no joy

Mint's one of those horribly over-used terms nowadays, and it's used to describe cars from good-ish condition to excellent. But that car really does define the term "Mint" love



Coopless!

Coupedummy you are so right no matter where you park 300 meteres away in an empty car park someone will pop in next to you!

You have to be strategic about it park at the end of bays etc laugh

Your car looks fantastic - parking spaces I do the same - park the furthest away all on my own, and when I come back.. nearly always a bloody great 4x4 or people carrier! Coupes just seem to attract them!

great job, i particularly love photo 4, the front of that car is so sweet. cool love

car parks is it? well i get to park at work on a private brewery site, supposedly limited to employees - i came out of a meeting friday to be greeted by a 10' flat-back parked so close to me (there were loads of other spaces either side) i had to get in the passenger side... grr grr
i was steaming, and went to security to tell them and to get them to check my car with me..luckily, no apparent damage/dents, or there would have been mayhem...how he got out without hitting my door i'll never know, but suffice to say he's now banned from any of our brewery car parks, whanker...... grr
