SOLD The Fiat Coupé (type 175, officially titled the Coupé Fiat) is a two door, four seater coupé produced by the Italian manufacturer Fiat between 1993 and 2000. The car was introduced at Brussels Motor Show in 1993. It is most remembered for its distinctive, angular design, with unique scalloped side panels. The body was designed by Chris Bangle from Centro Stile Fiat, while the interior was designed by Pininfarina.

 

1998 saw the release of the Limited Edition (LE) which featured red Brembo brake calipers at the front and standard red calipers at the back, a body kit, push-button start, six speed gearbox, strut brace to make the chassis more rigid and Recaro seats with red leather inserts which offered better support than the standard 20V Turbo seats.

 

The LE was produced in Black (flat), Red (flat), Vinci Grey (metallic), Grigio Crono (flat) and Steel Grey (metallic). The bodywork of the LE also benefited from titanium coloured insert around the light bezels and the wing mirrors.

 

Each LE Coupé was manufactured with a badge located by the rear view mirror which contained that car's unique number (it is rumoured that Michael Schumacher was the original owner of LE No. 0001, however when the question was raised to him personally he confirmed he had owned one, but a red one, while LE No. 0001 is Grigio Crono).

 

This car is number 99 of 1,400 produced world-wide and features some subtle performance enhancements taking it to around 300 BHP and over the 0-62 in 6.2/160 MPH for standard vehicles.

​

Our very special LE has extensive service history from Rallysport Automotive, PowerItalia, Jamie Porter Alfa Workshop, Auto Sportivo and Midland Car Servicing. As the Upgrades list suggests, most of the enhancements were carried out in the Summer of 2013 by FCSS, confirmed by Joe in person.

​

The car comes with 3 keys, service invoicing, MOT history, previous tax discs (RFL) and an original Fiat Coupe LE brochure.
