    There’s nothing to hate about a coupe. The smile on his face when the turbo kicks in……. That’s the smile all coupe owners have.

    So I bought a 16v Fiat Coupe and yes, it's definitely not the 20vt, HOWEVER It is AMAZING to drive. I got mine in Germany and plan to take it back to the United States when I am done with work here. They're fun to drive and just awesome to look at. Everyone knows who I am because of my car haha. I can't wait to take it home and show it off at Cars and Coffee. I am a bit worried that mechanics might not want to work on it but hopefully I can learn how to take care of it myself. So overall, I would definitely recommend this car even if its just 16v. It picks up just fine and is still a blast to drive. This is coming from someone that cares more about feel than speed though.

    Criminally underrated cars!
    Ive got a LE but think the 20VT6 is the pick of the bunch. A plus minus the red cam cover and skirts. A cleaner and purer look. (And avoids trapping water against the sills)
    From the videos, I rate Autosportivo and will visit this year.
    Autosportivo is clearly one of the top 3 Fiat Coupe specialists in the UK.

    I have always lusted over these especially after I saw a salesman boot one up a dual carriageway when they were new. I even requested a brochure directly from Fiat when the LE and Plus came out when I was 15! Still have these somewhere. For whatever reason I found myself never being in the position to own one, I have had my fair share of Alfa's currently got a 147 GTA but there is something about the Coupe that draws me in closer.

    Never had an issue with turbo lag in a 20v turbo. Just keep the engine above 5k when shifting up.

    Mr Sportivo , Can you sell that " Pulley guide/guard "? I've got the 2.4 version and i would love to have that. My friends auxiliary belt snapped because of a rock and the timing was off 2 tooth. Luckily the engine is still fine.
    I am replacing my 1.6 16v for a 2.4 and i wanna do it properly. Hope you can help me out.

    Hey I have a fiat coupe 20vt, 174k km. I have an issue where during hard acceleration or even going uphill in low gear, the car will accelerate unevenly and the injector light will flash. Not a big problem after reaching higher rpms, however the injector light flashes still. Sometimes it has even cut power completely when accelerating hard, rpms dropping low and it feels as if you hit the brakes really hard and then it goes back to normal shortly after. I had the fuel pump fuse go out a month or two before this started happening, it was replaced and the car ran again, but these issues came out of the blue. Is it a fuel pump going bad? Would really appreciate any help.

    What would you pay for a standard 20v turbo in say the blue they did. Say one with 60-80k and full history, in good nick? And what do you NOT get in those compared to the limited edition models?

    • @rogerpayne5336
      @rogerpayne5336 7 місяців тому

      in good nick , standard 20VT starts from around 4k ~ 8k. 8k for 60k miler. In that kinda range. And standard has : cloth seat's / leather ( non Recaro ) , non push button start , non 180 mph dials , non side skirts / front lip , non strut brace , non drilled disc's.... Basically the LE / Plus extra's are mainly cosmetic. All version of 20VT have the same mechanicals.
