Nice gesture Blue.

very nice, I'd love a coupe. Would have to be HDI one thou, so probably not happen as they are quite expensive and hard to find.

and why does the nearside wiperblade hang over the screen

is that normal on the coupe

image 3: sweeeet

image 4:sweeeet

1) Oops
2) Theres a subdued Saltire (St Andrews Cross) on the left. Also, I placed a 24 inch wiper on the passenger side instead of a 22inch. Oopsy. Already rectified.

3) thank you
4) Thanks again

I'm considering getting one - Shame that Australia didnt get it in a 2.0 guise....we only got the V6 Automatic until 1999 when a manual was offered. Oh yeah and they were only offered in a really high spec. Manuals are pretty hard to come by but they are out there - if you want a manual...you can't be picky with colour

Are there many in "Luxor Yellow" over in the UK - so so tempted but they are rare as hens teeth out here!

ooo i see you've got the EW10J4 RFR 2.0 16v engine
much more refined and responsive than the old RFV lump in your D8, but not as quick as the coupe is supprisingly much heavier

Bluey, you kept that one quiet

How did you manage to go Germany and sort your new motah?

Was it a private sale or dealer?

And a winfall, from a Bank,

Anyway the Coupe looks very nice and you will treasure it I'm sure - well done fella

Well, when I came back from Germany, my bank had finaly coughed up the dough for all the bank charges they fleeced me for over 7 years.
So I had a wee look around and fell in love with my Coupe and bought it once I was sure all was as it seemed with it. Bought it from a small dealer.

Spur of the moment thing realy.
