Turbo is beyond repair apparently so now on the hunt for another turbo (TT are out of refurbed ones at present.. )

The turbo has now been replaced (sourced a 2nd hand one from Iceberg). Oil Pressure is better, now showing no less than 1.5 bar. Engine still sounds great though.

Not sure what Im going to do with the car at the moment though

good news, to be fair at the moment i would just ride it out. the car is working, its holding reasonable oil pressure, and coupes just are not selling at the moment

.

Back to thinking about selling again so if anyone is tempted let me know.

whats pushed you back over the edge mate?

Nothing in particular - in fact the car has been as good as gold bar the handbrake freezing on last week. Just fancy a change really.

your getting out wile the going is good then
whats the oil pressure like in this one now then mate, the new turbo hold?

3 bar + when started, goes to around 1.5 bar in traffic but always goes back up when rev's go up. Stopped worrrying about that now

what sort of price you looking for buddy? just my uncle is looking at coops at mo. .

Haven't really come up with a figure yet, guess I should. In fact I'll probably do a proper F.S post some time soon

No just no.



You are not allowed to sell sorry.

TD - you're not alone mate. I've been wondering if I should put her back to standard and get something else.

A £15k loan is JUST £310 a month over 5 years... Tuscans are £15k...

Go on then Ken - then my rx will have a playmate.

Just remember that you are also going to have to budget for 3K a year on maintenance. I thought VERY hard about a tuscan....

in my opinion anyone thinking of selling a modded coop would only be best taking it to standard and selling the mods on...
or going to lose out big time.

But also i would never sell, keep it wait till it hits classic then sell... they go for nothing and really are not worth selling.

Never gonna happen!

Mine has only been very mildly fettled with though

I'll allow you to sell it provided you get something 'interesting' as a replacement.

Can't guarantee that....perhaps after the wedding though

Nah, divorces aren't as interesting as coupés

On a more serious note I will hopefully have time/weather/opportunity to take some fresh pics this weekend so will get an ad up I think..maybe

Did you miss my last post...

No

seconded ! NO selling of coop allowed !!!

il 3rd that as the more and more i look at your sig pic tartandude the more and more i know you will regret opening your front door and not seeing that on your drive once its gone.

off topic but are your wheels wolfrace triads?? they look great!

Nope - they are Cesam Daytona's although there are others out there that look similar (Dare V2, Wolfrace etc)

Okay getting back on topic what do people think my car would be worth?

id say £3/3300 considering spec etc . . . . but as coupes are not going for there true value to sell right now would maybe have to look at accepting offers somewhere between £2700/3000 but if someone wants the car bad enough they will have to pay what you want!

Easily £3000.
Anyone offering less is a taking the pi$$.
The reason the prices are not holding is because people dont want to wait for the asking price.. Too many in a rush for the reddies.
The Coop is an old car now, and many people dont even know what a Fiat coupe is lol.
So then we try sell on here, but we know how difficult that has been lately, due to the bargains people have witnessed.

If your willing to wait you will get 3k.
But Autotrader is the best alternative, there it will stand out against traders prices/cars too!

Me too Si - and the Speed Six issues made me go down the route of Cerb V8.

Back on topic, you don't seem in a mad rush to sell TD - so ask £3k. Good luck with the sale.
