Fiat Coupe (1995 - 2000) 20V Turbo 2d (1998/R) Owner Review

What does this car say about you?

Im not good at making sensible decisions.

What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?

Not really sure, dont care

Would you buy this car again and why?

Sadly no. I wish there was a similar coupe out there for not much money but cars are all fat lards or hot hatches now designed for nanny state Britain. The coupe is truly beautiful but it also has teeth! Get one and you will smile, soil yourself and spend lots of money, probably all in the same day!

What are you likely to buy next?

God knows

Type of dealer you bought from?

Didn't buy from a dealer

Did you buy this car new?

No

What price did you pay?

£3,900

When did you buy the car?

March 2005

Did you get a good deal and why?

Yes I think I paid about the right amount for the car

Is there any special reason why you bought this car?

It seemed like a good idea at the time

What was the dealer like?

What's it like to drive?

Superb, goes like a rocket. I chipped mine and put a SS exhaust and not much beats it. Imprezza's are left for dead after 50mph, I have outrun boxters and I even beat a Bentley continental from a 10mph rolling starts at lights in Manchester up to 70mph. Probably a footballer driving though so maybe doesn’t count.

What's it like to park?

Rubbish to park. It has the turning circle of a nuclear submarine

Have you had any problems with the car?

This car has been a nightmare. Brake disks, Manifold, Cambelt, clutch, suspension, electrical stuff. Its always in the garage. However when ever I come to get rid of it, I drive it on the country roads where I live and remember why I fell in love with it. Besides just about everything that could break has and has been fixed now.

What's most practical about your car?

It is totally impractical

Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

I had a panic button installed, doesnt do anything but peaple like to press it.
