Just saying hello. After a Coupe in the very near future once I've sold a motorbike to free up some space andcash. Thanks for allowing me to join. Have driven and looked at a fair few E85s but have now decided on a Coupe. Please let me know if there are any going in the £5-7k price band. Thanks Craig

Welcome Craig, and good luck on your search. I'm not too far from you in Blackheath and planning a move to Sevenoaks sometime this year if we can find a place, so if you need advice or a second pair of eyes on anything local, let me know.

Thanks for that, much appreciated. Coupes definitely seem few and far between so I may have quite a search on!

Thanks - actually had a look at it yesterday - have commented on the other thread. A bit too far gone for me but a bargain for someone if they can do bodywork themselves.
