You guys have made me feel a lot better about myself, with the boyfriend constantly going on I feel like I'm in the wrong, that I'm doing something I shouldn't be. Yes I know its mainly men on here... but there is nothing wrong with a mechanically minded girl is there? But anyway he does hate the coupe, he asks me what the point is, why don't I just buy a new car that I don't have to keep fixing...yawn yawn... etc And it isn't that he is wrong for me because he doesn't like my car, its not that at all. It's that he knows it is something I love but won't even try to accept it. I show an interest in all the things he likes! Damnit I even learnt to snowboard and went to Italy to snowboard with him just to get with him.... that is a lot more effort than just accepting a car!!!
Here is my action plan
1. Swap cars for a week. (if he has no car then allow him to borrow)
See what his feedback is; depending on his response you can decide what course of action you wish to undertake.
That is a very good idea, but he wouldn't do it It would just start up some more abuse. And for all those wondering.... he drives a Golf!!!

In the coupe.

The swap idea started looking good Emmie,until you said he has a golf. But the coupe is special for sure,but if you really love him you have to deal with the problem. On the other hand if he loves you ,hr should respect your car choice. After all there are more important things to think about than cars. Good luck.

Nowt wrong with a Golf however the Fiat Coupe oozes class and style. With regard your boyfriend, he is a TIT/AR5EHOLE/SELF-CENTRED/OPINIONATED chappie who you should bin without a second thought, and get on with your life the way you want. Clearly, I am non of the above but am married [boo-hoo].

I foresee much disappointment when "emmie876" is revealed to be a 50 year old male trucker from Norfolk. I'm not 50 and I'm not a trucker. I'm 23 and an IT geek, just to set that straight. Got something else to add: My boyfriend works with me, his desk is right next to me, and has probably has been wondering what I've been laughing at the last couple of days... I really hope he was interested enough to have a rummage around through what I've been looking at and find this!!

And for all those wondering.... he drives a Golf!!! I wasn't going to add anything to this thread, but now I've just got to! A Golf!? A bloody Golf!? Default car to buy if you have no interest in cars = Focus. If that's a bit too exciting for you and you crave a bit more blandness = an Astra. If you feel like somehow you're better than Focus/Astra drivers, but still have no opinion on what car to buy = a Golf. It's a non-car. I bet it's an exciting shade of not quite silver-grey too. My Mrs drives an MR2 Roadster, so at least she has some credibility when she complains about my car ("why are the seats so hard" / "why don't you thrash your Fiat like you thrash my car" generally!)

From a females point of view :
good on you for loving the coupe, and having the ability to work on them... (where you based? I'd trust a women with mine more than I would a male.. Lol)
secondly - I shouldn't say, but the coupe and men are so similar...
They emotionaly drain you They physically drain you They financially drain you Very rarely nice to you The rides good sometimes They take alot of looking after...
Need I say more?
The only differance is the coupe can't back chat you!!
Gosh... Is it really that bad?! Lol

Totally agree with the above but my boyfriend's response was "Its F**king YELLOW... but it does sound and go well" ...Coming from him who drives a company Ford Focus that's been injected with steroids
