Hello and a very good day to everyone, My name is René and I will be a new owner of a Daihatsu Copen, I've bought a dark-blue 1.3 from November 2006. Unfortunately with damage. Actually, I must say fortunately. Because now it was cheap enough for me to buy The back is damaged, but it should be easily fixed. So during this winter it will be repaired and I'm very keen on having the first real drive in it. I don't even know how the car works (for example the electric roof) so that is why I found this forum in the first place. But I hope to find more usefull and entertaining stuff here. Let's see... To fix my own car, I've also bought a second Copen (with damage on the both sides and the front) to make one 'new' one out of two damaged ones. This second car is from March 2008 (also a 1.3) with only 23.000 km. Reason I tell you this: maybe someone can use some parts of is? After I'm done with my own car, I will want to sell everything that's left off course. For now: greetings and hope to see your cars on the road someday René
Welcome to Copenworld, René - you'll love the site and also the total fun of ownership! One thing fascinates me: you have a dark-blue 2006 1.3 Copen! Different in the Netherlands? In the UK, 1.3s were only available in silver, grey and red and only from 2007. Hey, have a great winter with your two Copens and keep us posted with how you get on!
