Coupe VX - pre-purchase help please

[prc87]

Hi - I'm hoping someone can help a prospective Coupe VX own with some information please. After looking for 12-18 months now, I've finally found a Coupe VX in (apparently) pristine condition and want to bone up before viewing the car.

Can someone please point me to detailed "buyers guide" information for a Coupe VX.

Also, what model-specific "challenges" do Coupe VX's impose on their owners? I'm expecting to run the car a few times each week - probably around 5 - 8,000km per year. I don't know what I don't know!

difficult one really you are looking for the same things as on any beta coupe just make sure all the vx specific items are as good as possible bronze glass is difficult to source so make sure it has a full set in the right colour, rear spoliers are impossible to find even from italy so a good one of those is a good thing! The interior fabric is unique and expensive to replace. Obviously make sure that the supercharger is quiet and smooth running. Otherwise as i said look at all the usual things

Hi Peter,

I have uploaded a one page Beta buyers guide to the Beta Files section of Downloads. This used to be online a few years ago. Hope it's helpful. Don't click any of the links on the page, I didn't save them.

Omicron used to have it on their website after it disappeared, but I couldn't find it, otherwise I would have posted the link.

Thanks Colin - this is a useful start, appreciated. I'm hoping to see the car in the flesh in the next week or so and will take a few pics.

Good luck Peter, I hope it all works out -

Where does the car originate? If it's out of town, it will be nice to see another VX around Wellington!
