Hello there lads!

Ivan is my name - originally from Bulgaria, living in Ireland the last 4 years now...
I`ve being looking for a nice and genuine Fiat Coupe 20VT for a quite a long time now and finally I think I found the one! I had a long chat with the fella over the phone as I have to travel about 4 hours for the Coop and the last thing i want is to go there and to find out there is something very wrong with the car and go back empty handed with broken heart! suicide
I made a wee list of the most important things that i managed to gather from the BUYING GUIDE here in the forum ( PRICELESS BUYING GUIDE BTW! 5 Stars *****) and i asked the fella over the phone. So far apart from 1 small dent and few scratches its 100%!
I`ll be going for a view this Sunday (26/08/12) so... Fingers crossed! smile

Regards.

That`s the car btw guys. What do you think? First impressions? smile
Mature fella owns it and the man before him was a doctor... So "ABUSED" is out of the picture, thank God.

Hi Markiz,

Welcome to the forum! It's a great place. Well worth joining the club too.

Do you have a link to the car you are buying? It's possible somebody here may know the car.

It's not a 98 Dublin reg silver 20vt turbo by any chance?

Hi Ivan and welcome,

I drove over to Sofia back in 2005/2006 in my original Punto GT, I really liked having Mt. Vitosha National Park just down the road, for some skiing/hiking or just walking about. Lovely city.
