Hi, i am currently looking for a bargain fiat coupe as a first entry point into the world of fiat coupes and there is one on autotrader that has caught my eye: http://search.autotrader.co.uk/es-uk/www...r=&max_mileage= i rang up and spoke to a bloke that works there and he said it drives really well and it was given in as part exchange, the mileage is high at 160,000 miles but it is a 2.0 16v na and looks from the pictures to be in great nick, should i go and view the car do u think or is it a waste of time? I really like it and dont want an amazing perfect one at the moment just a decent enough that might need a bit of tlc...let me know what u think please, many thanks in advance tom

At a very quick glance: exhaust is wrong, handbrake needs looking at, and the bonnet is wrong, very wrong!

so i shouldnt bother then lol?

yep I will second that, the front looks bent,

first coop I have seen doing an Elvis snarl

It's observations based on the pictures from Coupe owners who 'generally' know what to look for.

I would recommend going to see at least a couple of Coupe's before you make up your mind and take the plunge. If that one's local you at least have some pointers from us if you go and see it in the flesh

Much better car for a grand, just save up to get the door sorted

That car looks a much better bet.

You could sell the leather for £250+ exchange for cloth and with the money repair the door that way you get a cracking coop for a grand.
