  1. Nothing major to report on my Lupo Sport over the last few weekends Acquired one of the last genuine old stock Lupo Coolant bottles from VW Parts International since my one was starting to show signs of its age and had turned "yellowy" over time. After I got it swapped over, typically my coolant cap started to show its age against the new bottle, guess that will be replaced as well now... What a difference it made to the engine bay. Proof that the little things are what really matter 🙌🏻 Instagram : Hector.Bishop.Penn

  2. I fully intend on keeping it - owning a raven blue is a dream 20 odd years in the making and was part of the reason I sold my black one in 2022. The aim is to restore to standard (although I do like the steering wheel and gearknob Jamie has installed) which will be a long process, it also needs a full respray in addition to the rust sorting. It didn't skip a beat on the ~300 mile journey home so I'm reasonably confident it doesn't need anything major mechanically, in fact the gearbox is a hell of a lot smoother than the one on my 68 plate Up! GTI!

  6. Looks complete though, which is handy. There are a lot of us on here that are very envious. A Raven Blue GTi. No words.

  7. The penny's just dropped... @mickster bought it! Excellent. I'm a bit slow... (@Rich - no quips about me and SDIs). Looking forward to a full rebuild thread devoted just to that Raven Blue loop.

  8. So, I'm now the owner of an excellent condition 2001 GTI, having driven it 800 miles on the first day seeing it to get home...! There are a couple of smaller issues, one of which being that the single disc CD player is kaput whilst the radio and tape are working fine - I'm not too bothered about losing the CD player but I wonder if there's a single DIN replacement unit that would connect to the CD harness and give streaming from my phone whilst keeping the original radio / tape player operational? Many thanks Paul
