Found this at one of my old haunts.

The brief was first person to post a pic of their coupe parked in a supermarket trolley bay.
The winner confessed he drew some strange looks when, after realising he would be trapped inside if he reversed in, he decided to push the car in........

Planning is an unnatural process, much better to just get on with things, that way failure comes as a complete surprise instead of being preceeded by a period of worry and doubt

There's a little tray in the rear spoiler.

Daft but amusant.

That looks like a scoupe to me, not a coupe.

At least that's what I thought they were called.

The scoupe was pre-coupe, earlier 90's.
The 'gen1' coupe was late 90's. (had the F2 for my daily)
The 'gen2' (as shown in this pic) was approx 2000-02
The 'gen3' was approx 2002-07. (had the V6 for my wife)
The 'gen4' was called the Genesis up to current..
The Veloster will be the next one

he left the handbrake off, opened the door normally and pushed the car into the shed, just as the handbook describes.

I drove a "Special Equipment" Model at Work the other night, it had Air Con and Electric Windows ..................... Not exactly Special Equipment !!!!

It was in lovely condition though, although the colour was Green and not very suited to the Car. I saw another one too with "Tuscani" Badges on? Not sure about what that was about?
Upgrades:

Fitted Electric Memory Seat, Leather Cubby Lid, Wood Dash, Message Centre.

The cars are badged as Tiburon in the US/Canada and in the far eastern territories as Tuscani. It's not unknown for afficionados to rebadge. Worth approx 200bhp.
