That'd be the Plus that although originally cheaper than an LE, is considerably classier?

Firstly, just like to give a big thanks to JBT & crew for arranging this event. thumb

Auto Italia invited us to participate in a full length feature at Bruntingthorpe, on the most extremely tuned turbo Coupes on the planet. So, we thought it’ll be an opportunity lost, not to share our achievements locally and globally. This is the most comprehensive media feature to date, which can only put the Fiat Coupe back in the limelight, boasting a six cover spread of fantastic and inspiring reading.

For those who have followed Torque Italia’s 500+bhp developments over two years would appreciate the pioneering break through achieved in the Fiat Coupe tuning realm, setting new standards. Teaming up with like-minded and enthusiastic owners/traders has proved fruitful recently, and we have decided to embark upon a Fiat Coupe tuning marketing campaign for the future.

Previously, an attempt was made to feature a tuned Fiat Coupe 2.0 20v turbo in Auto Italia, anyone know who’s it is?

Chris Rees briefly quoted below:

[/b]“things had already burst the 400bhp barrier when, a few years back, I drove a tuned Fiat Coupe. Frankly, it was border line scary, with wallow around corners and the sort of torque steer that demands extreme caution”[b]

Be interested to know who built it?

Highlights of the day, head to head blast with five a breast 500bhp coupe’s on a runway, and who won???

Disputed currently, rematch on the cards, very soon……………

Keep the media focused events coming.

Get your copy now! cool

Thanks
Barbz
