The Appeal

The Fiat Coupe is one of the most visually arresting designs of the 1990s, its sharp creases and bold proportions the work of Chris Bangle during his tenure at Fiat's Centro Stile. Fitted with the characterful five-cylinder turbo engine, this is the variant most sought after by enthusiasts, delivering a distinctive soundtrack and spirited performance to match those dramatic looks. With numbers steadily declining on UK roads, well-kept examples are becoming increasingly difficult to source.

This 1997 example has been stored indoors at a dedicated facility, kept covered and maintained on a trickle charger. It comes accompanied by the majority of its service history along with several bills for work carried out over the years. Purchased by the current owner in January 2025, only a few hundred miles have been added since. The vendor states it drives well, with the turbo delivering strong acceleration.
