Saw a nice Scotts Green 20Vt last Sunday week in Belfast as you enter the from the Motorway (coming from the south) where all the rubbish roadworks are taking place.

It was from a distance but I think it might have been lowered, it had LE skirts and a FEZ.... Reg No.

Very nice car! Very nice indeed...

Id guess that Ink Black 20v would have been bought off Stuart.

Darmtb you would probably remember him as the guy that owned the Ferrari 308 at cultra last year..

Ian I'm almost tempted to bring a bucket and sponge next monday on the school run and wash your car for you \:D but then again it (according to my friends) is the main reason they dont mistake you for me...."John's car would never be that dirty" they say \:D

Only had a quick wipe over, but still better than usual..

Must get the wheels off and give them a good cleaning.

Must also swap my brake calipers.

Hi Guys - completley off topic but wanted to ask the guys in Belfast!

I was wondering if any of you work on coupes or have any bits lying around. I need a wee fiddly bit from the end of the bonnet strut (the bit with the thread that screws into the bonnet). Give me a shout if you can help!

Cheers

Darren

I see a few coupes around Belfast -

One lives off Bloomfield Ave, saw a girl in a blue one coming out of Sainsbury's Holywood the other week, also a yellow one parked there. And of course my own!

Cheers

Darren

The last couple of times I've been up in Belfast I've spotted a Broom Yellow coupe on the Cregagh Road opposite the chinese, just up from Wysebuys!

Anybody from here?

I don't check this section often.

Belfast John/Big Ian, that was my HEZ... sprinty blue coupe in Conswater and probably the same one on the Ormeau road as I remember following one up that road. I live in between the two so am around there and the newtownards road quite alot.

It's not so well polished these days, it's pretty dirty these days as I haven't the time to clean it.

They are getting a lot more common but I must claim that I have had mine around for 2 years 4 months and the other 2 I've spoke too have had theirs imported after mine. (I waited for a while to get my new reg). There was also one guy who had had his from new. He ended up selling it even though I asked him to let me know when he was going to. It ended up back in England \:\( it was great. No where near as many carpark door dings as on mine( \:\( ) .

What a day for coupe spotting in belfast yesterday...ink black one sitting in bridge end filling station around 7:45pm, 2 minutes later passed metallic blue one on M5 heading out of Belfast. Hour later whilst heading home, passed red one turning into whiteabbey village, followed by a second red one on M2 heading out of Belfast. Belfast seems to be falling in love with the coop on mass if yesterday anything to go by.

Yeah they always going to be pretty rare sight on the roads, but there are a few i see almost on a daily basis around east belfast, just makes me think old coops maybe die but before they do they sell up and move to belfast! Obviously a by product of the fact belfast is a small city with a proportionately large amount of n. irelands population living there.
