1.4 16v, with 34k on the clock. Needs a little spot of paint on the front bumper, and a little bit on the driver's door, but otherwise great condition. Best bit is that due to a slighlty chequered past (cat c due to vandalism damage last june, all documented and above board with DVLA inspection etc.) it was dirt cheap at 2700 Disturbingly good fun to drive, even if it does have a slightly gay interior Edited by: jbmg40
Loads, but I don't know what I'll get away with Wheels need a refurb, so I reckon they'll look nicer diamond cut over silver rather than just painted... start subtle and work my way up to coilies and funky stuff.
ive driven a gti and a 1.4 not sport body roll was very bad espec on the 1.4 its the 1 thing the lupo gti is slated for
Cool Lupo! I went to look at a very similar model for my g/f last week but it was 'soft blue' rather than 'jazz blue'. Didn't actually get to drive it as it was a crash damaged one and needed some work, left it as it was a bit dodgy though. Still on the lookout for a tidy Lupo 16v, can't afford a GTI!
To be honest this one was far from perfect, but its all easy fixes. Little scratches etc. that I've just worked out. Also stuff that the owner thought was a nightmare was actually dead simple, but made great bargaining points. The drivers door fitted badly, so I gave him a lecture about how the car must've been heavily crunched in the past... twisted shell etc. Also showed him the tapering shut line on the b-pillar as evidence of the same. Little does he know that the door was just hung wrongly by a dumb bodyshop guy, and was a 10 minute fix, and best of all the lupo is supposed to have a tapering shut-line down that seal Always go armed with knowledge
Psssssst, want any Lupo GTI bits? Anything except bumpers or shell that is, just a little unstraight.
