Coupe Spotting - Madrid, Spain - Sep 23 2012

[Dave B]

Hi guys,

Long time without posting. Apologies. Work and other stuff means the CSi not had much use this year!

Took a short break in Spain last week. Wandering along C/ O'Donnell in Central Madrid ( close to Retiro Park ) on Sep 23 and I saw the following Coupe parked in the street.

Anyone on here?

hi dave
not mine, but i have heard about it, and i saw it three years ago
it has been offered several times in local classic tradeshows (i saw it in the parking of one of those)
a pity to see it in that condition now
it has been clearly poorly maintained since
or she finds a new owner or she will be soon a shadow of what she was in her glory days

Madrid sighting

deQuincey,

Thanks for your reply. It was nice to hear you had seen the car. It had a scratch on the door, and a little bit of dust sitting on it ( possibly just from being parked outside ) It also had a bit of damage to the front bumper, but it did not really look that bad. Hopefully, the car will receive some tender loving care and stay nice!
