what Fiat coupes and Fiats/Alfas have you owned?

Hi
Was just wondering what coupes people owned are you on the first 1 or had loads or maybe had the same 1 for years?
Not sure if this is also allowed but was also wondering about other Fiat/Alfas aswell.
My Journey with Fiat started in 1993 when I worked for a Fiat Alfa main dealers in Lincoln. I remember taking a brand new Lancia Intergrale for a test drive and fell in love.
I loved the Uno Turbo.
U ended up owning 2 156, 3 Stilo Abarths, and more importantly a 20v Coupe in Green. 16vt in black ink and a 16v which I have now as a summer car.
Oh and wife just reminded me x 2 punto t-jets

My first car was an 83 fiat strada 85 super, back in 93. Cost me 50 quid and every door was a different colour.
85 Regata 105tc
87 panda.
86 Uno 45.
88 Uno turbo.
90 Tempra 2.0tc
86 Fiorino van
95 Punto
03 punto
98 coupe 20vt & 98 Marea 20vt

With all manor of marques in between

other than a flirtatious period with a tr7, (was nearly an X1/9), all of my toys have been fiats!

'97 mk1 broom yellow punto sporting (1.2 not 1.6), had for 6yrs / 130k. great little car, absolutely mint under my ownership - written off week after sale.

'54 stilo prestigio selespeed in black (5dr abarth), discussed elsewhere, not a fan!

'00 coupe vt6 moon grey (v1) - buy cheap, buy twice... blind special from glasgow, even jbt said upon seeing it he had not seen one as crusty for a longtime...

'00 coupe vt6 moon grey (v2) - cosmetically challenged was the terminology. restored in 2014 under working title of VT6+LE, sold on to new owner in november.

'98 coupe LE speed red - presently sat in the garage awaiting first drive, but £2/3k later (belts, clutch, paint etc) should make a decent car and hopefully longterm investment - am holding high hopes!

--------

punto was by far my favourite, was nice to drive a low powered car on the edge all the time - quite cutting edge for its day too, 185 tyres holding 1242cc 16v 86bhp of joy!

In order:

FIAT 128 Sport 1300
FIAT 132 2000
Lancia HPE 2000
Alfa 33 1500 Gold Cloverleaf

I have had two fiat coupes 20vt one sprint blue the other porto.I have had 4 uno turbos,fiat strada 105tc,fiat x19,fiat croma turbo,fiat uno 60s,punto gt turbo,punto sporting,punto hgt,bravo hgt,3 alfa 156,alfa spider v6 and lots of lancias.I think I may have an addiction for Italian cars

'98 Brava 1.6 16v
'99 Coupe 20vt
'99 Punto Mk.2 1.2 16v
'07 Punto Grande 1.4 8v

If I had space I would have kept them all!! Lol 😃

I just wish I had sold none of the above!
Currently I am enjoying:
Fiat Coupe Turbo VT6

Have you seen the 75 TS LE on Gumtree in the last week, Bruce 01? I've been hankering after another 75 too..... My TS was tail happy - too much in the end when I 360 degree'd it exiting a roundabout . Luckily didn't hit a thing and was able to drive off, very slowly, apologising the my very pale missus. Think Im mature enough for another one now (75, not missus - we're still together)
1990 Uno 60s
1992 Alfa 75 TS
1991 Uno 45s
1988 Alfa Sprint 1.7 oh the noise of those weber's and the instant pick up...
1998 Bravo HGT
1999 Coupe non-vis
2000 Coupe Vis - still got

1995 Fiat Coupe 16v Speed red from new, driven daily for 17 yrs, 165,000 miles on the clock when she died at home!

2012 - 2014 Fiat free zone (Ford Ka!)

Oct 2014: Fiat Coupe, LE no.15 Speed Red! Yay! I'm on the road again!

My first Fiat was back in 1995. With a 89 Fiat Tipo 1.4DGT then

90 Tipo 2.0 16v SEDICIVALVOLE (loved it till I crashed)
97 Bravo 1.8 HGT
95 Coupe 16VT
97 Coupe 20VT

Several VW, Audi, Seat

Then 11yrs after selling the coupe I purchased my 3rd Coupe a 2000 VT6 in November 2013. Not planning on selling ever

Every day cars are a Honda Civic and a VW Golf GTD

Honda soon to be sold for either another or an Alfa Giulietta depending on if I can convince the misses on the Alfa!!

X19 1,300cc
Panda
Fiorino pope mobil
5 X 20vt coupes. 3 still owned.

In no particular order:

Quantum (kit) with 20VT engine - still have this
Onyx (kit) with initially Panda 1 litre engine, then 1.3 Brazil engine
MK1 punto (three times)
Uno 1200

and way back in pre-history, a part share in a Ford Cortina 1.3 Popular... on Lancia Beta engine and running gear and built-up chassis.

Owned and driven a Fiat Panda for a day before I sold it on
Bought for £10, sold it for £50 the next day.

Otherwise, just my Coupe

I've driven a lot of Italian cars through where I used to work and it was where I decided I loved the Fiat Coupe above all the rest

1995 Fiat Punto 55s
1998 Fiat Punto 1.2 Sporting
1997 Fiat Punto GT
1998 Fiat Punto 1.2 Sporting

So, 9 in all..... not bad!

Sprint blue 20v turbo - January 14 to present

Electric blue 20v turbo plus - September 14 to present

2 in a year isn't too bad!

Looking into buying an Alfa Romeo GT in the next few weeks/months

Hiraethuw, yeah saw it mate.

Also nearly did the same as you in my 75. Very easy to be facing the wrong way, especially in the wet lol.

The 75 is just so different inside and out. Would love a V6!!

I bought my Coupe 20VT in nov 2007 and still own it. It was the first Italian car is owned and in 2012 I bought a six month old Giulietta as the family car.

My Fiat does around 2k per year, but I can't bare to part with it!

First road legal and used on the road was my first Lancia Fulvia 1.3s 2+2 coupé.

In between a variety of assorted bangers, I owned 2 more similar Fulvias.

25 or more years of company cars followed, until redundancy 5 years ago. (So now self employed)

First car after redundancy in 2009 was a very nice 39,000 mile 2005 Alfa 156 2.0 JTS. Had this for 20,000 excellent miles, but bought my first Coupé while I still had the Alfa (a red 20VT6 speeder from 2000) which was a high miler, but ran great after Joe at FCSS performed a little magic on it.

A month after I bought the red one I bought a wine red Plus, which sadly was a basket case. Bought it as a project, but after 6 months I realised that it was beyond a project, so it got scrapped. Would do it differently now.

Part exchanged my red VT6 for my broom yellow Plus, which I still have 2 years later.

Then bought a Cat C written off 2000 ink black 20VT6, with only 76,000 miles on it and in very well looked after (pampered) condition. Joe supplied the magic again that put this lovely car back on the road and again, I still have it.

One other Coupé was purchased just after the inky. A 20VT again, but my first 5 speed Coupé. This had only done about 40,000 miles and with full service history. A very good runner, but also a rolling project and this was sold on. I'm hoping that it is in the process of full restoration with it's new owner.

Now a confirmed Italian car but, with the Coupé easily best bang for buck. Expecting to sell one of the remaining two, but can't see myself Coupéless ever again.

There is certainly some pedigree on this forum...

2X Integrale 16V
1X Alfa 155
1X Alfa 147 1.6 TS
1X Coupe VIS - current

The vis coupe I drive now is my second one. I previously drove a P reg N/A Scottie, and this is still in my possession but it is on SORN. I just could not part with it! I think the older, non-vis model had a much more impressive engine note.

Agree with you, Annie. I prefer the Vis performance but my non-Vis sounded better and so faster. In fact, I'd go back to it if I had the chance. Plus it would be cheaper to tune at FC performance, and I could stick a cone filter on it

Ah, the advantages of formerly living across "the Ditch" in New Zealand where Fiats continued to be sold new, unlike Australia, which saw the Marque absent from 1988 until about 2006.

I bought my first Fiat in 1971 and have owned Fiats exclusively since then:-

1969 125
1973 132S
1980 131 Supermirafiori (changed the 1600 OHV to 1800 Twin cam)
1988 Croma
1988 Bertone X1/9
1996 Coupe 16vt (still own)
2007 Grande Punto 1.4 8v (still own)

Not a big selection as I tend to keep my Fiats for many years.

The list is long

alfasud 1.2
alfasud 1.3ti s1

@pag firstly, good to see your still here I pop in now and then.

Brera is nice i must admit. i like it a lot. I'm not as possessive about it as I was the coop but i think that's because I was so pissed off when the coop was pranged. I used to love the coop. Hand wash it. Polish it. Buy into group gliptone deals and do the seats religiously etc. Cleaned the engine, painted the rocker cover

I haven't touched the Brera. i have only opened the bonnet once in three years (honest that's true) and that was a week or so after buying it to show my mate the engine! And it's only beed cleaned by the Eastern European car wash guys! (in fairness though I have been spending a lot more time on photography with little spare time for car cleaning)

Looks wise it's gorgeous & the drivers seat is a really nice place to be. It's refined, quiet & very comfortable but although it's quite quick it's no match for a 20VT. Fuel consumption is about the same but handling is another league. It would leave a coop on the twisty's in fact you can induce some understeer but to make it slide you have to be going some. Brakes are much better too and ABS kicks in under much lesser conditions than the coop. (not that I drive it hard lol)

In true Italian fashion it has some peculiar problems. Mine has the rare but documented wet seat belt problem! Proper PITA. Water gets into the seat belt well making the whole belt wet. I currently have a clothes peg on the belt to stop it retracting & the rear seats are better thought of as an extra parcel shelf.

Could thoroughly recommend it though it's fab

My first car was a Mini that I bought in 1970, but after that I saw the light!

Great post! Always wanted an Uno Turbo in white. Your first Coupe lasted 20 mins??! Would love to hear the story. Do you still have the front bumper?! In one piece??

well it started out with a ;
Fiat Bravo 1.6 16v - Great car i put 17k miles on it in a year, never missed a beat.
Alfa 156 2.4 JTD 140 - Grown up and got myself a diesel, didnt have this too long when the mot was coming up and i knew it wasnt going to pass.
Alfa 156 2.4 JTD 150 - Another Alfa diesel, had a nice FMIC on it, sounded good too, i had this for about a year then some woman kindly ran into the side of it.
Alfa 156 20v JTD - never will i buy a car in the dark - in london aswell ;), i had it for about 3 weeks then got rid because it had too much wrong with it.
Alfa 156 2.4 JTD 150 #2 - This was a nice one, a late Phase 1 on an 03 plate, only got rid of it cause i was eyeing up my brothers 20v non turbo coupe.
Fiat Coupe 20v NA - As i said i got this as my replacement for the alfa and as petrol was coming down, i felt it wasnt going to be that bad on fuel.(32/33mpg) - every time.
Fiat Coupe 20vt - currently i have my broomy at the mo, which has had some nice things done to it, also a forum car, tbh i cant think of anything else to replace it with, so i think ill keep it till it dies.

Time to dig this up, as I was passing and noticed it.

Our lot seems to get fed up of reliability isues and move on to German alternatives and get board then end up with Italian cars again.. It's a hard habit to kick!

There is some love for these cars there lol

My type of thread.

Apart from the Coupes I've only had the one Fiat - a Sei Sporting.

But I love my Lancias and still get narked when I hear people say you're not a proper petrolhead unless you've owned an Alfa, clearly forgetting about the Lancias of the 80s and 90s.

I've had a Delta 1.5 LX, three HF Turbos, an 8v Integrale and an Evo.

Wife's had a Y10 Fila, Cinq Sporting and Barchetta.

You could say we've got previous :-)

Stilo 2.4 black abarth selespeed version with skyroof and cream leather (beautiful car, miss it )
Coupe 20vt ink black

Had around 5 other cars, keep wanting fiats. Only 30 so plenty of time

I've not actually owned many cars in general, which is shocking considering my mid-30s age status lol

Learned to drive in a '93 Uno 45 'Fire' with the truly awesome plaid seat trim. Was blast but drove it...erm...like a teenager who had just passed their test

So, the list...

1) Poverty spec 1242cc 8v mk 2 Punto - not a ball of fire, blew a head gasket, started me off in finance. Not great.

2) Slightly more than poverty spec 1242cc 16v Stilo - not quite poverty spec and the extra 8 valves made a difference. Seriously underrated car and drove incredibly well after a bit of tuning.

3) (and current) 20v NA non-VIS Coupe - temp car that's lasted nearly 2 years. Love that engine, doesn't brake or handle anywhere near as well as the Stilo but I can actually overtake things. Pondering if it'll be my last Fiat...

I've had so many on and off over the years that I don't recall - but I've had not one but two fiat-powered kit cars, with three different engines:

this one started with the 1 litre fire engine from a Lancia Y10 which was then replaced with a 127 Brazil engine, and then of course the Quantum had a 20vt engine.
