Fiat Coupe 20V Turbo LE – No. 0087

Steel Grey | 101,000 Miles | 6-Speed Manual | 220 bhp

Please take the time to read through the advert for this rare and highly desirable Fiat Coupe 20V Turbo Limited Edition, presented in Steel Grey and carrying the particularly desirable low production number 0087.

I am assisting Nicole, a trusted member of my Fiat Coupe Lovers & Owners community, with the sale of her car. Nicole works long hours and is not normally available to take telephone calls during the day, so I am helping with enquiries and will respond as promptly as possible to genuine questions from serious prospective buyers.

I have been involved with the Fiat Coupe scene for more than 20 years, have owned several Coupes myself and run one of the UK’s largest Facebook communities dedicated to the model. I therefore have considerable knowledge of these cars and am happy to answer sensible questions wherever I can.

If you have owned a Fiat Coupe before, you’ll already appreciate what makes them so special. For those new to the model, the 20V Turbo LE combines distinctive Italian styling, a charismatic five-cylinder turbocharged engine and an exceptionally engaging driving experience.

The Limited Edition

The Fiat Coupe 20V Turbo LE represents the final and most highly specified evolution of the Coupe.

With its 220 bhp five-cylinder turbo engine, six-speed manual transmission, Brembo braking system, Recaro interior and distinctive Limited Edition detailing, it remains one of the most interesting performance cars to come out of Italy during the late 1990s.

Limited Edition cars are increasingly regarded as modern classics, with originality, specification, condition and documented history becoming increasingly important to collectors and enthusiasts.

This car’s low Limited Edition number, extensive history and supporting documentation make it a particularly interesting example.

Condition & Viewing

That said, the car presents as a very appealing example and the extensive history provides an unusually detailed record of its maintenance.
