4.46

ok, its only 20 secs long, but Clarkson still likes the look of it

I wonder what coupe owners didn't like about it? It puts a smile on my face every time

Hmm i wonder too....

looked modern then, looks modern now.

God find,have to agree about the lookin back after a drive coupe dose it for me everytime.

I KNEW I should have bought that GTV!

Gareth

Oh shut up you!

I'm still in the market for one in the New Year, although it's a toss up between that and a 16VT for conversion.

Although I do know of a gorgeous 164 3.0 24 coming up for grabs in December, so many cars, so little time/money!

Gareth

Gareth,

You must be a sucker for punishment, a Coupe and a GTV, simultaneously! The V6 is worth it though!

Oh, I am! At one point I had an Uno Turbo, Delta HF Turbo, X1-9, Triumph Spitfire and a 75 V6 all on the go. I was always working on at least two of them!

Oh, and a race prepared 127 GT, obviously this wasn't a road car though!

I take it you're happy with the Alfa, I know you'd been looking hard for one, any pics at all?

Gareth

I know how you feel Gareth, I'm currently running 07' 166 3.0 v6, 01 fiat marea weekend 1.9 jtd, 97 coupe 20vt, 91 33 p4 16v, 88 Delta integrale 16v (ex german t car), 72 triumph gt6 tramac rally car... not to mention the 01 punto I've just aquired with a blown engine....Someday's I think I need my bumps read....

Cheers Tim

A Fiat coupe and a capri RS 3100 in the same video - It's enough to make a man mess his pants

Why isn't Top Gear more like that now? . Don't get me wrong I like watching it now but feel its aimed too much at the 'mass' market.

shame it didn't feature much more of the coupe...liking the comment with the coupe mentioned

I have owned all 3 of the top 3 on there.

I do think the GTV is the best, but then I am biased.

Only just read this Gareth! (only a month late! )

Reading that list of cars, a GTV and a Coupe seems like a good combination!

Enjoying my gtv at the moment, not the exact one i wanted, as i've never been a massive fan of silver cars. However it's growing on me and i think sometimes you can't afford to be picky. Black leather as well, i wanted the red madam whiplash-esque leather! Other than that i like it, i'll be honest though i do miss the 20vt surge when the turbo comes on boost. Maybe i'll get another one eventually...........
