Hi all. Just acquired a 2000 coupe last week. Has been off the road for quite a while so looking at getting it back up and running. Was written off about 10 years ago due to repair costs, but looks like it was bought back and a lot of the work to get it back on the road has already been done. Except for the front corner damage, she's otherwise pretty good. Looks like someone has had some fun with it in the past, it's got a pair of Weber 40DCOE's and a guy croft inlet manifold (possibly cams as well, not sure as I don't have any history yet, will try and hunt some down). Got it running today, so will be getting some parts together to hopefully get it back on the road soon. Would appreciate as well if someone is able to confirm what colour it is. Believe it's Escoli grey from what I've read.

Will be posting in the parts section later, but if anyone has any body panels or some red/orange interior items please do get in touch. Looking forward to being able to drive her on the road

Hi Dan

Welcome to forum, looking forward to seeing your parts wanted list!

Car looks to be decent and quite a late registered pre facelift.

Thanks, Peter. Reads 55,000 on the clock which seems to be genuine. It's pretty clean underneath

Never ceases to amaze me how many keep appearing which have been in hiding for a while.

Welcome to the forum! What a fantastic find! I was admiring this coupé when it was in the ads. Look forward to seeing it progress.

Welcome to the group, I'm looking forward to more photos too! The damage looks pretty minimal and replacement panels are out there both new and used, some appear on eBay so worth checking regularly. I'd recommend getting in touch with Mark Wastnidge at BetaBoyz, he's in Axminster and usually has a Summer garage day, it's a long way but you'd be surprised what he has in stock. Last time I was there I think he had a brand new set of early red velour seat covers? Gotta be worth a call!

Thanks Guy. Will check out BetaBoyz, would be nice if I could get some seats in better nick

It's just the covers I saw, not the. underlying seats. But should you find any other seats for a Coupe then Carl is looking for some too!

Cheers
