Looks cheap!

Especially with a new engine 20K miles ago.

Don't know the car but probably worth a closer look.


Coupe now sold!

Red key FAQ in basic FAQs, have a read ;\)

Let's just say I have had 11 Fiats with red keys over 10 years, and never needed one.

Does the car have a silver and blue key and a blue one?

Had a look this evening,bodywork is a bit tatty,a couple of dents and scratches,nothing major though.I can see why people are seduced by the 20vt.As soon as i started it up and heard the 5 pot i wanted one.It started fine,didn't hear any ticking noise from the manifold area.Noticed the coolant level was a bit low!Idled at 1k cold,would this be right?Only the 2 blue keys.Open to offers on it.Had the kids with me so will probably go back in the week and give it a spin(only 10 mins away).What should i be most aware of when driving it??
Cheers Gary

Oil pressure and temp gauges are the ones to be wary of! 3 bar for the oil until hot, when it may idle at 2-2.5 bar. Temp gauge should be up to around 90 in around 10-15 minutes (otherwise new thermo probably required)

Oh yes, read the buyer's guide? And general advice is NOT to buy the first you see!
