1998 Fiat Coupe 20 Valve 2 Litre Turbo For Sale

Very reluctant sale of my 1998 Fiat Coupe 20 valve turbo I have been looking for this car for a number of years and have recently succeeded in acquiring it. This is a very well looked after coupe with an extremely extensive history file and is a fine example of a genuine car and the basis for the making of an exceptional example.

My plan was to acquire the best example I could with a view to spending money on recommissioning a car. I found this particular car in my local area, the previous lady owner bought the car in 2002 and has kept the car garaged and has added very little mileage over the years as it was a second car.

In finding this car I have paid what I consider to be a fair price on the basis that I will have an exceptional car after it has been recommissioned to a workable example, fit enough for a daily driver and suitable for classic car events or just a great weekend car with 220 horse power on tap. The car is also a great investment.

The reason for my reluctant sale is that I no longer have the storage space to keep the car and I need to recover the money I have invested in the car to restore an Alfa Romeo.

The car is a complete and original example finished in Broome Yellow with contrasting unmarked black leather, 220 horsepower engine that sounds glorious and drives excellently.

Recomissioning
On obtaining the vehicle I had the garage that I use thoroughly inspect the car and have taken their professional advice on addressing small problem areas that may cause problems in the future.
These include: replacing front brake discs and pads, rear brake pads, relevant fluids. I have also had the all important cam belt replaced as although it had been done twice previously within its 85, 500 miles the garage strongly recommended changing it due to age. Whilst the engine was out various oil seals and the drive shaft seals were replaced, the clutch was checked and found to be new (valeo), with all new parts and this confirmed the paperwork in the extensive file. The car was also fully serviced. Also at this time the wheels were refurbished and have had four brand new tyres fitted.
The bodywork has had one or two blemishes polished out and the car has been professionally polished and now the car looks its best. The car is now really settling down to feeling great on the road.

Bodywork
A really great example of Fiat styling, bold, a great choice of colour that really stands out and fits the car extremely well. People really do stop and stare as you go by. I have received a lot of positive comments about the car.

Wheels and tyres
As previously stated the wheels have been refurbished to a high standard and have been given four new tyres.

Interior
Again a really great example of Italian styling, the way the yellow on the dash continues round onto the doors really sets off the interior, with the black leather seats an excellent contrast and are in extremely good condition.

Engine
The engine is strong and pulls really well, the 220 bhp five cylinder 20 valve turbo engine with five speed gearbox sounds glorious and has a very good service record. New cambelt as stated and recent clutch, turbo changed at 58, 000 miles, everything is right to now put miles on the car with peace of mind.

Overview
A really great car with all important matching numbers. Comprehensive file of work carried out, a great investment in Italian style. With values currently rising for good examples you can really enjoy your investment. I am only looking to recoup the money I have spent, I’m not trying to make a profit on this sad sale. The asking price reflects the worth of the car and the costs for the work I have had done to recommission the car which come to almost £3000 alone

85, 500 miles (may increase slightly due to the current weather), MOT until January 2019, three keys, eligible for classic car insurance.
