Description
1997 Fiat Coupe 20V Turbo – Speed Red
114, 141 miles, 12 months MOT. Due 15/ 05/ 2026
Effectively a 2 owner car from new, 3 on paper. I acquired the car in April 2021 from a person who covered no mileage in the car and gave it an overhaul only in 2021.
The car is completely standard. It starts, runs, drives and stops beautifully.
The engine & gearbox are strong and the clutch is smooth.
Brakes, Radiator, AC condenser, AC Compressor, Oil cooler & Pipework, Alternator and Timing belts and more have all been done in the past 4 years.
The car comes with the original Clarion headunit and 6 CD changer in the boot.
The black leather interior is regularly treated with conditioners and is in good condition.
This Fiat Coupe still has its self-cancelling indicators.
The chassis and bodywork are very solid underneath.
There is none of the common rust seen under the arches or the sills.
The timing belt and water pump was changed just over 6, 000 miles ago (4 years).
Car has only covered 1, 300 miles since its last service.
2 keys present (Red & Silver) along with all of the history from 2021 onwards.
Beforehand it was stored indoors for 10 years and previous to this used as a daily driver.
The paintwork all around is showing its age. I have also learned that car covers are not always your friend. There are rub marks from the cover on the roof mainly but also lighter ones on the rear ¾ right hand side and a small run on the bonnet. See pictures.
The car is a great useable, unique future classic and makes a very comfortable grand tourer. History
