Yes its true.

I'm addicted. Even now, sitting at my work, thinking about all the things I need to pay for before I head off on holiday, I can't stop thinking about getting another coupe.

I shouldn't want one. Not at all. It just doesn't make sense. I need a car for window cleaning. Do I want to clean windows in a coupe? (Although overtaking someone with a set of ladders strapped to the roof, would be hilarious).

Also, its the insurance, the tax, the fuel and the running costs. But I can't help coming on here and looking at pics of coupes. I even resigned as a mod to try and reduce my reasons for coming on here and yet here I still am.

Someone please set me straight!!!

Ross

No I won't set you straight, you really do need one, really honest!!

Come on.......you know you want to .

Baz

we cant Ross, its a completely irrational feeling. It makes no sense for me to have one at all, none. But the joy I feel for having it sat out there, poised and ready for some welsh road driving when the sun comes out, the sound track it delivers, the looks it generates, the feelings it develops when performing a full chat overtake.

This is not helping, I'm aware of that, but after having 4 coupes now, and always coming back I have resigned my self to this irrational want/need

At the end of the day, it all to short to sit around not getting what you know you can have.
You could slip off a ladder tomorrow and snap your spine in two....you never know what life is going to deliver you, live for now, not for tomorrow.

As they say, The best laid plans of mice and men often go awry

Anyone fancy touching a tree for me?

Ross

Petrol prices are going up this week, 3p/litre and are predicted to be £1.50-£1.70 by December.......you still want a coupé?

£1.50 by december?

WHY???

Ross

I can't quite remember, I fainted at that point!

Something about recovering markets, increased demand and reduced capacity blah blah blah.

Right that seals it then. Im planting me a petrol tree!!

And a coupe addiction is a perfectly healthy thing. It should be encouraged

You obviously don't know ross enough!

Haha I've read enough posts to know.

Even the most insane coupe love and addiction is a good thing.

Go on Ross, you know you want another yellow peril

As you're no longer a mod, you are now allowed to have a coupe again

What I want to know is if you got one, would you modify it?

LOL daft question!!! You know Ross!!!

Sorted

LOL very true!!!!

The only reason I returned was the stupidly low prices that you can get a well sorted 20VT for now if, like 2004 a 20VT today would still cost you £5.5K+ the thought of getting another one would have never even entered my head unfortunatly.

If we deleted Stan's posts i would say go for one, but that really does worry me a bit.

Erm, I don't know actually.

Part of me thinks I wouldn't as I don't wanna go down that route again.

Another part of me wishes I had finished what I started and done it properly. I'd love to compete at TOTB for instance.

Ross

Wow, now thats disgusting!! i will convert my coupe to run on vegetable oil lol

I've seen how you drive, are you sure you haven't already done that?!

Haha, hey hey, so called 'captain slow' got his first speeding ticket the other week, 38mph in a 30, im rollin with the big boys now lol, shame i got let off and just did a course instead, my captain slow name will remain!
