Coupe or hatch

Post by Bryan »

Hi guys.

I've got the chance to have either a 220 coupe. Or a 220 l reg hatch

Both on need work to make them road legs Only had the hatch before are both the same to drive as I really like the hatch. Even tho it will need more work.

Im waiting on more pictures tomorrow if it.

Coupe is the red one on eBay £300 and the hatch is carribean blue on Facebook. Again £300 delivered. Needs a fair bit. Desperately a bonnet.

What's people's thoughts on both as a project

Cheers Bryan

Assuming both are nasps, you'll have more return for your money assuming its a 3dr if you go hatch.

But red coupe are sexy as hell when they are cleaned properly.

Please remember if you do go for the red coupe to check the belt before firing it again.

9 years in a stationary position will not have done it any favours
