Hi all Not been on for a few years. I have a 1.3 Grey Copen and now have a just bought a delightful 2005 Blue Copen! It's fun to experience the 2 very different drives! Just spending on a new exhaust, refurbishing the wheels, new bluetooth audio system and gear knob! And I just learned that WD40 takes aout light scratches - and it works! So please to be part of Copenworld. Picked up the exhaust on ebay for £146 by following the link on here - thanks guys for posting. Best cars ever! Kevin
preference ? Hiya which do you prefer of the 2 engines ? I have have a 1.3 and previously a 650 with a turbo, I miss the sound of the turbo kicking in , which was exciting, but don't miss the 3 months servicing( oil changes ) matters not really - lovely cars Sally
Sorry to derail the thread, but I wanted to ask in relation to Sally's comment - I don't hear my turbo kicking in on my 659cc Copen. It accelerates "ok" and it can certainly do ok on the freeway, but the turbo doesn't woosh like I always thought that turbos do. Is something wrong? Having said that I'd love to drive a 1.3 or even a Robe...neither of those seems to have made it to Australia.
Love them both Love them both for being different experience to drive. Love the 660 for the lightness and cornering. Love the 1.3 for the solid handling and acceleration
It's probably fine. With the standard air box and blowoff valve you don't hear the turbo. Pretty sure you'd know it if it stopped working, don't think it would get to freeway speed without it
Thank you for letting me know...my mechanic says it's ok and so does the Copen forum so mind is at ease.
