Hi,

I have been Coupe owner for the last 12 years, it as been my daily drive for this period, and because i like this car so much now i bought another one, and almost "brand new" 20VT Plus that is amazing love

This 20VT Plus as just 56500 kms ooo and it´s
completely standard, it really feels like a "brand new car", so amazing to drive love

I always wanted a Plus, but never had the chance to find a really good one, but when i saw this i couldn´t say no, and bought it immediately.

Some pictures, the pictures are like i bought it, i didn´t do nothing to the car, it needs some polish, and some detail to get paint shine again.

Cheers.
Filipe

Thanks guys, it´s not superb, there are some stone chips on the hood and the front bumper. but overall it´s very nice, interior too.

With time i will try to make it better.

Cheers.

Hi guys,

I need to buy some material for the Coupes, some belts and tensioners and other parts.

Can you please help me and give some advice where to buy.

I´m in Portugal so it need to be some place that can dispatch the material.

Cheers,
Filipe

Filipe, Steve at Alternative Autos supplies me with parts in Australia, so I expect it will be no trouble to send to Portugal.

You certainly have a great looking Coupe, Congratulations!

Looks fantastic-well done!

How does the plus model compare to your first coupe- drive wise?

TWO great cars! V nice collection!

If you want someone to help you drive them in the Sun I am sure you will get some volunteers! :-)

They drive different, because the Plus is standard, it´s a more confortable, a more relaxed experience, but the 20VT as Eibach springs and different shocks and a different exaust that makes a better sound.

The Plus really feels like a new car, all tight, all new, no strange noises, it even smells like new smile

The 20VT it´s my daily drive, it´s in very good condition, but it´s not like the Plus, but when i want to go fast it´s my choice, it´s harder but it corners better.

I love the 2 the same way, are for different things and different moods.
