Excellent, 1st post!
well, there is a red 20 vt for sale on the side of the road in St james road, at the top of shirley avenue. Never seen it there before so i can only presume it is a trader. Looks a bit sorry for itself, it has't moved for a few days. Looks a nice car though.
There is also a sprint blue with tan leather for sale around the corner from me, in Lumsden Car sales, looks nice.

Yellow Coupe drove in behind me in the Verwood Shell garage this morning. Did try to make eye contact to say hello but driver didn’t even look up.

Are all Coupe owners around Verwood miserable?

Why thank you markyboy! Went to use the jet wash as the coop was reet filthy but that wasn't working so bit the bullet and put it through the car wash - it's actually pretty safe there, I live down the road and used to run my Bravo through. Obviously I got really anal about it and went home and gave it a quick chammy etc...

Are you in Wallisdown often, Truffle? My mum said she spotted an N reg red Coupe heading towards the uni near the Mini garage a week or so ago (she still notices Coupes in the local area - they live/I grew up in Ferndown - even though I sold mine 9 months ago and am on the other side of the world, almost as sad as posting on the forum when you don't even have a Coupe! ).

Hahaha.. it's funny, since I've bought her I've seen loads of Coops around Bournemouth which I swear weren't around before!

Drove past a yellow on Old Christchurch Road 2 weeks ago, saw a black coming out of Asda 3 weeks ago, and a red one at Fleetsbridge.

I live in Charminster so we'll probably pass each other sooner or later.

Yellow W-reg 20vt[6] coupe at Fleet Services on Sunday afternoon.

Spoke to the driver and his wife, they were on route from Essex to Southamton.

He had never heard of the club or the forum, gave him the details. He had never heard of Rog @ Powerfiat either

He said he was on his second engine, first one because he didn't know about the thirst for oil and the second because the garage fccuked up .

I've seen only one other red coop in Bournemouth so far and it was an NA. If u see a turbo (without body colour trim, just a good ol black strip along the bottom) then its probably me.

Depends on the time if it was a Saturday as i'd be working all day so id be on the road at about 820am and then once again at about 6pm. Anytime between these, it wont be me.

After a bit of a dry patch (which i guess is better than a wet one) i'm seeing coops almost daily.

Today, it was a Broom yellow coop in the center of bournemouth, he must have just come of Lansdown roundabout, making his way into town and i was on my way out of town going towards the rounabout.

I waved but got no response, which i was suprised at seeing as our cars passed inches away from each other as we squeezed past the parked cars on either side of the road.

I unfortunatly was walking so didnt get to do any waving.

Horrific experience in Romsey - saw a really tidy red 20vt parked at the CoOp, I was getting cash and approached the car for some coupe-chat . As I approached I noticed it was revving really loudly at about 4k and edging out painfully slowly from a parking space . I was just about to say hello when I noticed it was a middle aged lady driving it. Now I'm not sexist or aything (in the true italian style) but she really wasnt comfortable with the car so I really dont think it as hers hence I didnt bother with the chat. Anyone know whose it is?

Saw a Murple 20vt with the registration ending in JJO in the south walls car park in chichester. Then a day or two later as i was heading home down the A27 i saw a Murple again gunning it away from the Stockbridge Roundabout. I have given chase but by the time i had got to the roundabout (i was about 4-5 cars from the roundabout when u came off it and onto the motorway) and then gone round it u would have already been at the next roundabout and gone god know where.

Spotted on Monday's Fifth Gear - yellow 20VT, colour coded skirts and rear bumper.

I Sky Plussed it and tried reading the plate, looked like a T reg and the middle of the three letters could have been a P.

As for where it was - Christ knows, though would guess it was somewhere around the Hampshire/Berkshire border as it was the feature where Jason Plato was driving the M3 - and the Lotus he looked at was near Hermitage.

If anyone claims this I'll be amazed - but thought I'd list it, as you do

If this happened on Tuesday, i dont reckon it could have been me. As much as the evidence seggests it (silly driving, nice bird) From my memory i was at home working on an assignment. You could have seen the other phantom red coop that is around these parts, the man that NEVER WAVES!

Difficult to describe really, it's a dark green, but with a pearlescent finish which when the sunlight hits it, makes it look a lot lighter, a bit like how ink black can in some lights look black and blue in others. I've only ever seen two energy green cars, I think they all were pluses. \:\)

No bodykit, didnt get a chance to wave or flash (dont know if u did either) i was concentrating far too much on my passenger.

I do however wish to make a coupe complaint. I drove said lady passenger home last night and asked if she wanted to go out for drink sometime (once i was at her house) and she (politely) declined. °\(

This isnt supposed to happen after a ride in the coop?!

Ah that's a shame. You'll probably see me most days doing that journey - provided I'm not driving the missus' car when the coop decides to be poorly (like today, new injector needed)

So who is driving a Red LE around Abingdon/Culham then? Anthracite wheels, lovely anthracite honey-combe grill, LE kit/LE.

Always checks my coop out, so I think it's likely to be a forum member...

Awesome! Always a good feeling to know there are people out there.
Yeah, I have a set of 6k HIDs in normal beam, with LED sidelights to match. They have actually turned out pretty white, rather than blueish - but I think I prefer them that way.

Then again yesterday in Waitrose, yours has dark grey wheels and LE kit? Also parked near to the burgundy 20vt with Zender kit and LE skirts.

Firstly there was a nice Steel grey 20VT in Salisbury on Friday, it had LE shirts and the sunroof was open.

Today (Saturday) I spotted a red Coupe, I am pretty sure it was a 16VT on the road out of Weymouth towards Dorchester.

I also Spotted a Portofino Blue Coupe today on the A352 between Dorchester and Sherbourne, it had its hazard warning lights on and looked like it had some frontal damage.

First I saw the very shiny Inky Black R reg going South on the A339 between the Robin Hood and Police station roundabout, I'm sure it was Luke. I did wave but I was going the other wave on the other side of the road.

Then, as I turned into Buckingham Road and was busy waving and saying 'good morning' to the runner on the other side of the road, I caught a glimpse of an Electric Blue coupe. I crossed the road behind you and just saw those characteristic back lights disappearing out of sight.

Do you remember the threads on how as the coupe was getting so cheap it would attract the wrong type of owner? Well sadly i think i saw the first one today.

On my way to work, and coming the other way up the road came a yellow coop. I flashed, but it wasn't till we were about to pass that i could see that it was being driven by a spotty teenager in his white baseball cap °\(

My flash and wave was returned with nothing more than a vacant stare so i assume he was using all his brain power to work both feet and hands at the same time, driving.

I work in the Chemistry block, which backs onto Hartley Avenue. 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!

I have spent a fortune on mine too, but it has been mechanical, I haven't got around to tidying it up yet.

There is another 20VT in Carterton which looks exactly like mine except it is T reg. It normally parks near the Texaco garage.

Other than that I rarely see another, although I know there are a few about.

Are you going to the Oxford meet on march 14th?

Sure you don't mean Portofino blue (sorry if you didn't) - there's a Porto parked there every time I go down that road in the same place, usually on the other side of the road to the AM garage. Hasn't responded to a previous spot by someone else though so don't think they use the forum

That was me and that blank look is mistaken for serious concentration!

Hi, yes, spotted you, nice modded spint blue - waved as you took me, though admittedly quite limply, on the way to the science park... unfortuntately my coupe might as well be a 1 litre polo - hence the granny driving today.

I have only just picked mine from Solo Italia having had the engine stripped and the piston rings and head gasket done... so limited to below 3,000 rpm - argh!!!....

I could only look on jealously as your coupe employed its turbo and left me for dust frown - previously I would have been thundering down that straight in my s2k.

I will wave more enthusiastically when I next see you... hopefully I will be free of my 3,000 rpm shackles by then.

1,000 miles feels like forever!!!

I suppose this goes here? But I keep seeing a coupe going between Aylesbury and Bicester at rush hour in the evening. The problem is that becuase it's dark i only know it's a coupe from the front lights and looking back at the rear lights.

No idea what colour, if it driven by a man or woman, or even bodykit. So who here works in, or past, Aylesbury and drives back towards Bicester in the evenings? Is this you Nobby?

Later, was passed on Saturday evening at about 6pm by a possibly blitz blue coupe (looked too dark for sprint blue but wasn't a 20VT) heading south on the A34 just before jnct with M4. Still in the Smart. Anyone here too?

I haven't seen another coupe since I went to Cosford about a month ago. I head east a bit and see two in a day.

Witney, Oxfordshire. 2 Spots in as many minutes.

First an electric blue coop with a pretty blonde lady in it, she waved back but i think the crazy man waving at her made her somewhat embarrassed.

Then a broom yellow coop, driven by a bloke. Flashed and waved and got a wave in return.

I think Witney must be some sort of Coupe Mecha. I've started my new commute full time this week and have seen at least 1 coupe per day, ususally its a coupe on the way home (Oxfordsteve a couple of times and yesterday it was a porto on the same road).

However i got today's spot this morning. A grey plus turning into Witney at the north end of the town. I had to sort of double take and waved out the side window becuase i really wasnt expecting it!

I don't either, sometimes a Broom Yellow one in Poole and sometimes a silver one in the same place I saw you. My other-half spends quite a bit of time in the car each day for work in the local area and probably sees about 5 a week! Perhaps they don't come out at the weekend?

I was going slowly because I don't need to collect any more points and I've already had the rubber glove of the law driving along that section of road at 51mph instead of 50mph.

It's a Plus model, could you not tell by the number plate! tongue

Re: South Central - 07/01/2011 17:13

Thanks Chris, it's had some serious money spent on it by me and a previous owner!

Good to see another coop owner out on the road, how are you finding coupe ownership ? (dare I ask in case you've had some big bills laugh )

I have to be honest, I hadn't washed it this week before driving it over to Worthing (in my defence it was raining heavily paper )

Re: South Central - 07/01/2011 17:17

i'm finding coop ownership pretty good at the moment, however like i said i've only had it a week and only replaced thermostat so far but needs attention on its manifold (work in progress)

I did have a 16vt last year and that was a headache, in the 6 months i had it i replaced the clutch, had cambelt snap, turbo went.... and thats just the major things! that was a headache.

hopefully this 20vt will be more kind to me. i dont mind putting in the wrench time but it does get to a stage where you have to question if its worth it or not.

I think this car is registered Sxxx AKP and I've seen it around Didcot several times recently passing through. Its a standard looking 20VT and I dont think I've seen it before, Didcot's Red Coupes are KJ, Rush and myself and its not one of us.

Re: South Central - 10/03/2011 22:30

Right, thought I'd put this on here just in case!
In 'central Reading', quite near my flat, theres another block of flats.
Outside it, is a poor old Red 20V, believe it's the turbo.
The exhaust seems to have fallen off, and I've never seen it moving, plus theres kinda a cover over it which is being blown about by the wind, looks a bit tatty (so does mine!)

Any takers?
In front of it is a notice saying not to park there!

I could barely believe it, but the Pearl White one was at the garage in Faringdon, didn't get time for a chat as I was in a hurry on the way to work.

Re: South Central - 02/12/2013 21:09

Thanks Warren, we are still very pleased with it. It had a few 'quality' issues shortly after we bought it but it's running perfectly now. I smiled when I walked back to see the note had been returned!

The Coupe is still running, I had the pleasure of going outside of the city in it recently and it made me realised just how firm the Billies and Eibachs actually are!

Re: South Central - 19/12/2013 13:58

First spot in some time.

Very tidy T reg broom yellow VIS on the M27 near Hedge End around 1pm this afternoon.

Being driven by an equally tidy looking blonde smile

If that was you, or your car and your good lady, please accept my compliments on both car and its driver!

I was in a Beetle, and did wave as I passed

You probably know there’s a big Fiat dealership close to Park Gate. I wonder whether they still get any Coupes in; I guess people are more likely to service themselves or go to specialists these days.

Re: South Central - 27/04/2019 14:02

Hi again Eltel. I guess you missed the Sports and Classic show in Sarisbury in the end. Bit cold but dry. If you didn't make it, it was good. Nice selection of cars of all decades. Only parking on the road but they kindly let me in, with them saying, 'we'll it looks classic to me', which was unexpected. However, not able to 'show' even had it been in show condition. You needed to pre-register. The cars may be all belonging to Locksheath Car Club??? However, if Coupe's were half-way decent they wouldn't have looked out of place there, so maybe something to think about, next time. I left a note in my window for you, with a mobile to call, but as I say, perhaps you didn't make it. I wonder if you want to meet for a quick beer in one of our locals - Fox and Hounds, maybe, or wherever? It would be good to get the cars together whilst we have a bevvy. My coupe will want a pint of oil, please!

Re: South Central - 27/04/2019 17:45

Loconut & Eltel there is also the Auto Italia Show at Brooklands Museum on 4th May where we have a club stand with spaces left if you are interested?

Posted By: Loconut

Re: South Central - 27/04/2019 18:29

Hi Gunzi. Very many thanks for this. I would definitely be up for it. However, sod's law, I have people staying over and can't get underway until late morning, so with you early afternoon. Have read the Brooklands blurb and it recommends early arrival, of course. Secondly, if I am coming I really would like to be amongst the 30 rather than somewhere, a distance away. Note your comment that, once the 30 are filled, it will be necessary to park elsewhere. Do you think it is worth the 'risk': ie, for instance, how's take up on the 30 coming along?

PS. Hope you are interested too, Eltel.

There are usually several coupe owners attending.

Not mine, though a grey LE sounds nice.

Am in Hamble, with an Ink black +. There was a green coupe which was in the area but has probably gone to the great ‘Coupe showroom in the sky’. Sadly there are less and less on the roads, here at least. &#9785;&#65039;&#129325;&#128519;. T

Alas I’m no longer an owner as I had to sell mine to restore an Alfa 916 Spider, it’s in safe hands though as John Vocking has it (Bockers on here).

I may have seen your car at Alton Italian Meet, is it F1A**? Always see Pete P and Thunderbox there, envious every time I see a Coupe and like many deeply regret selling mine.

If you’re at the next Alton meet I’ll say hello, all the best Warren
