South Central

Fiat Coupe Forum
- Founded by Kayjey & James Northam
- Funded by the Club for the benefit of all owners

IMPORTANT NOTICE - Access to Technical Info on Forum
The original ethos of the Forum was to make technical information

including How To guides, FAQs, etc. available to all Forum members

without subscription, but in recent years we have seen a decline in

Club membership numbers whilst the costs for hosting the Fiat Coupe

Forum web site have increased. Club membership pays for the Forum and

provides other benefits, and to ensure the long term viability of the

Club and Forum, it has been discussed and agreed at the recent AGM that

the technical sections of the Forum should be accessible only to Club

members with a current subscription, starting from 01-January-2026.

Exchanged waves with a Broom yellow (didn't catch the model) in Witney near the texaco garage, and about half hour later I saw a Speed red Coupe on the A40 near Eynsham. It was heading in the Oxford direction. The yellow one was me! Wahey, spotted

The space I parked in is known in Chemistry as a 'God' space, since there are so few free all day spaces The traffic wardens are strict in maintaining the 2 hour rule in the boxed spaces $\:mad\:$ Are you around the Uni often? I see one other Coupe here occassionally!

Which Coupe do you take when you come here? You probably haven't seen me because I'm ususally parked a bit further down the hill, at the bottom of ripston gardens and the way you come in and out wouldn't necassarily take you past where I park $\:\)$ Do you play football with Piotr? $\:\)$ P.S Nice one with the parking permit!
