Soon to be owner in the west midlands

#1

Post by DapperCoupe »

Hey guys,

Soon to aquire my first coupe so thought this would be as good a place as any to start, I started the club scene as a saxo owner for a few years and as fun as it was it's time for something bigger and better looking.

I've always loved the look of these and thought it was about time I went for it, any tips to look out for when buying my coupe I'm looking at getting a 2.0

Any input will be appreciated

Connor
