Coupe spotting area

Anyone for Rockall?? Outer Hebrides? Scunthorpe?

Does this include North Buckinghamshire & Oxon?

I have looked through all the other regions and living on the border of these two I feel a misfit!

I don't think I am in Greater London and The South East, South West and South Central regions all seem to cover the area South of London/M4

East and West Midland is definitely well north of me.

Near uranus?

Arent they BMW 3 series drivers though?

Green S reg 20vt with tan leather in the carpark at the antiques fair at Hatherop Castle School Oxon at around 1pm today...would have left a fccuk card but had none as ever

about 12 o'clock on the 17/04/06 a dark blue 20vt with tan interior pulled out infront of me in bicester going towards the A34. overtook you on the dual carriageway and you turned off towards kidlington.
must say you looked

Burgendy 20V na in jersey on davids place. Over here on a busmens holiday!

On my journey to Milton Keynes this week I seed ...

1. A murple coop on Tuesday afternoon on the A1 around abou t the Scotch Corner area.

2. A yellow coop, also on Tuesday afternoon, a bit further South on the A1.

3. On Wednesday morning (or possibly Thursday), a yellow coop close to the centre of Milton Keynes.

4. No other coupés.

That is all.

Saw a good few coops at icerbergs yesterday, black one outside W reg, a red and a green one inside and another one that i cant recall color of

News at 10 last night, background of a report.

In the film Final Cut by Dominic Anciano & Ray Burdis*

I didn't notice the first time I watched it a few years ago, but right near the end, when Ray gets caught by the police, there's a silver 20VT in shot and filling most of the screen for most of the scene. I wouldn't normally point it out but it was such a lengthy and prominent exposure of the car we all love.

I love that film - brilliantly directed.


*ie. not the more recent Robin Williams excuse (not that I've seen it - I tend to steer well clear of films with him in purely because I once had to sit through the whole of Mrs Doubtfire)

Silver 20vT on the Caversfield bypass in Bicester today at approx 1030 am. Got a wave, but I noticed you a bit too late, but did put up a belated wave!! LeeMcC, was that you?

just been on a week's holiday to Minorca - saw a yellow Coupe in Ferreries...

On returning my hire car (a Fiat Punto) I got into a discussion with the bloke who manages the office there - transpires that he also used to have a coupe, until it got written off when somebody pulled out in front of him. He went all the way to Barcelona to buy it , and loved it every minute! Expecially in the winter - when there are no tourists, and (albeit few!) miles of straight road with no speed limits nor much in the way of police!

Apparently I saw the only one on the island (his was the second).

Simon.

Just got back from Venice. When we arrived at Treviso airport I commented to the GF 'I wonder if we will see any coupes?'

Sure enough 2 mins from the airport a red (looked like a 16v non turbo) drove past us.....

And there must be about 5 fiat garages on the way too. Nou coupes on the forecourt though.

Lee, thought it was you! Finally back and running after all the problems I've had!

If you drop me a PM with a list of exactly what you are after, I will have a chat with him to see what price he can do for you.

Cheers

Mark.

Vinci grey LE (with a bit of gash up front) parked in Aberystwyth town centre last Wednesday and a Portofino heading into Newtown (from Welshpool direction) yesterday

Max and Paddys Road to Nowhere! lol...sorry......its the episode where they pinch the school bus......its where Max is followin his ex and son and jus before son gets on bus....drives past very quickly in background...silver I think....and late model...! So sad I know......

Spotted a red S reg copue on tv on friday night It was on the programme about the isle of wight festival !
The car was the last car driving into the site.

Any one on here with a car like that go to the festival ?

Broom yellow heading north up A34 just south of Abingdon about half one yesterday lunchtime?

I watched a documentary on BBC3 called 'The Story of Common People' - the biggest hit for Britpop band Pulp.

During a scene where the band are reunited in the Sheffield rehearsal rooms where they originally practised the song, and Jarvis Cocker is waiting for a couple of the ex-band members to turn up; I noticed a familiar dashboard in the interior shot of guitarist Russell Senior arriving in the car park.

Yes - he was driving a silver/grey Coupe! This was confirmed in the external shots of the car, but I couldn't tell which model (I'll look out for any repeats). I suspect it was a Turb, maybe even an LE, as it was on a late 90s plate (I think). So that's where his cut of the money went - well done that man!! Cracking song too .....

Coming out of Silverstone circuit - following the GP Masters event - saw a Lilac metallic (Portofino blue?) 20V Turbo on a P plate being driven by a guy with glasses in the queue to go on the A43 - it went North, we turned off towards Brackley.

My coupe was at my mate's, as we were in his new Fiesta ST - so acknolwedgement was not an option! Nice unmolested model sir - but could do with a wash

Friday afternoon (1st), while waiting in a queue outside Banbury (heading towards Bloxham/Chipping Norton) - an R plated grey metallic coupe passing in the opposite direction. Being driven by an older gentleman - no acknowledgement even though I was in my red Coupe - perhaps he didn't see me. Perhaps he should be driving a Marea Weekend instead ....

On TV this morning. A program called 'To buy ot not to buy' a couple were looking to buy a property in Bude (cornwal?) and a mettalic red/maroon coop drove down the high street

Yes, Bude is in Cornwall. Everybody has a coop there

Like the whole population? Including Chin's?

My father lives in Cornwall, he tells me he sees Coops all the time - "common as muck down this way". This may be a lie. Chin's are allowed to drive in Cornwall too, but only if they pass a test, and can see over the steering wheel. They also, only drive Coops, as all Chin's have ace taste in cars.

Quite an odd one which I guess nobody will own up to:

I was in Marseille just before Christmas with work and was stuck in traffic by the toll gates going into the tunnel that runs under the city.

Anyway, a silver coop, really bashed up, being driven by a very gallic looking bloke...

Anyone on here? ;-)

Green one on Sarah Beeny's DIY show on telly this evening. Just saw the nearside rear whilst changing channels!

Might have been me, hope not i'm 25 not really a older gentleman.
Yellow 20vt: i've spotted on the dc around Brackley, flashed me i flashed my hazards. Also seen it around Banbury.

Saw a steel grey coop just like mine on the drive up from Lincoln this morning. Can't remember where but think it was somewhere on the A1

Cheers for the wave

No defo not you mate - this guy was in his 50's at least!

I saw a nice Sprint Blue with a K reg private number & kit parked in a village called Thornwell(?) in the peak district between Sheffield & Manchester.

saw a nice porto 20vt and a red 20vt which i pretty much went home with up in japfest today!

Beeny must have a thing about Coupes - there was a silver one parked up outside the house in Greenwich the two blokes were doing up on Property Ladder last night.

is this anyone's on here? spotted opposite the doctors in Port Erin, Isle of Man:

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v477/bazzasmithkins/DSC00161.jpg

Go on - whose was it - a tastey looking Porto with zender front bumper on the telly last night - a full 3/4 front shot (I believe it was from filming early in the year)

Rhodes, Greece - Silver/Grey 16v NA parked opposite the Marina Gate into Rhodes Old Town two weeks ago, also a red one (not sure on valves etc) driving in the same area.

I was on holiday so on foot - might hire a Fiat Panda next year and brave the mad greek drivers.

Sicily Milazzo - Blitz Blue 16v (t?)- hope you have air-con ;), why is England sooo cold

Love the driving style in Sicily though

I saw a green one in Sicily when I was there, but nearer the other end of the island. Got to Stromboli yet?

Poland, heading south on A4 near Balice (Krakow) aiport. Yellow with boot spoiler and black steel wheels.

I was gobsmacked today I saw a moon grey coupe in my village. I think the guy lives in Chateaulin as it had a 29 reg. I think that there are about 5 coupes in Finistere!

which area does hereford come under?

West Midlands

Spotted a 16v N/A today just up the road from Guardamar in Spain.

I wanted to take more pictures, but it shortly left. Nice to see another Coupe in another country though - first time.

I said to the missus on the way out to Spain, "I wonder if we'll see any Coupe's?" On our first day and first drive out in our lovely 207 diesel, sporting a horrible snot green colour (BLUUUURRRGGHHH!!!!) we spotted this...

Apparently, there was a Burgundy Coupe on the P&O Ferry from Calais to Dover on Saturday night. (Around 5.30 sailing)

Anyone?

Not more than 10 minutes ago I saw a pristine broom yellow coupe between the T-Comm and Dubai Mall (going towards Deira), if you're the driver, it looks beautiful with the sun gleaming and stood out among the 3 Audi R8/R10s on the same road.

Btw you showed us a clean pair of heels and we were trying

There is only one Custard - and it wasn't me!

It could have been this one that I've seen "living" in Abu Dhabi as reported in the Coupe Spotting - Anywhere Else thread which is where this post should be
