I don't know :cry:

The head says sell, the heart says buy a daily driver and find somewhere to store it for dry weekend use only.
It comes down to will it hurt more to keep it or sell it. I probably held on to my FIAT Coupe a few years to long. It was costing a small fortune to keep it going. But those lst few years with that car were worth every penny. :wub:
I owned a Fiat Coupe 20v from 2004 till 2008 loved that car too. It never put a foot wrong despite me taking it to nearly 100k miles.

Spot on, I had mine from 2001 to 2011. if I had sold her at 100k I would have missed the financial pain of the last 45k. Would also have missed 5 years of fun. :driving: 8)

That looks flipin amazing. I'd need a damn good reason to sell mine and 'getting a newer car, just because' wouldn't be one of those for sure.
I get the storage issue, there are options out there that shouldn't cost a fortune, bearing in mind the car at the moment is probably increasing in value.
Don't do it imo, you will regret it I would imagine.

Car looks fantastic OP. :thumbsup:

Think long and hard before you sell - I didn't in 2015, and days after taking a deposit on my first Coupe I was out putting a deposit on my second! :headbang:

Plus if you did sell and regret it you'd probably struggle to find another MC - they aren't exactly common cars, and if anything they are increasing in value.
Coupes because stunning!

Thanks for all the advice and compliments on my car. I've decided keep it for the next few months and refit the standard wheels for a bit of a change.

Good choice. I nipped to Manchester earlier to drop some bits off at a job. Although I should have taken my company car, it was just too much of a temptation to give the Zed a run. She makes me giggle, no cd's, just that lovely engine noise for company.... :thumbsup:
