Everything else seems to have escaped such bad corrosion. It’s a strange one! So my options for an axle are 6N2 and Arosa or Lupo is that right? Is a 6N2 disks on the rear? How much hassle is going from hubs to disks?

You don’t say 😂 Yeah it has always been here - It’s a cracker of a car, every piece of documentation and I just can’t bring myself to give up on it. It’s been sealed a bit underneath but the axle has taken a beating. With just 70,000 miles on the clock it’s shocking! Contacted local dismantlers but no luck. Contacted a few eBay breaking for spares but nothing so far.

It would appear I have a slight issue...

I haven’t seen any of these replies until now, notifications must go to junk these days. It’s for a 2001 1.4 would a 6n2 bolt straight on to it? Or what would the difference be in a Lupo GTI set up?

Anyone? ?

I’m looking for a rear Axle ideally with Discs etc. Postage to Aberdeenshire also required if not local. Thanks, Rachel

Is it Possible to get the grill support (Where the indicators are held) If so how much posted?

I recently bought a cheap central locking kit off of ebay to fit to my 2000 1.0L E model lupo. I understand the basic wiring and set up. However does anyone have a diagram or picture of them doing this for some extra help? That is if the bloody snow clears to get it fitted Thanks in advance

Halfords sell them for £1.30 or something for a pack of 10. Bring one in and they will show you Hope that helps

How much for wing mirror covers? Just the covers not the whole base?

Howdy! As said, best to check the Readers Rides for ideas, will be looking out for the fellow loop when i'm out and about, Especially another checkered one

1. Daz 2. Bigfoot 3. Silver! (date, time and location dependant) 4. Greig - If i get the lupo back! 5. Matty - depending on if i still have it when it happens lol 6. Bluloop (also date, time and location dependant) 7. Skint (also date, time and location dependant) ) 8. jamie. (also date, time and location dependant) )

Coilovers came and fitted, looks alot better now but will be lower

Going to get a smaller lip for the MB's so i will have them fitted at some point

Yes - it is 2006 but... ok now i'm confused :S haha

Can this be updated to 2010?

Managed to temporarily sort the problem - turns out it’s not the starter motor, it the starter switch. Not have a hot wire running from the starter motor to the battery, feel like a car thief every time I use it now though but at least I don't have to push it down the hill and jump in New parts have been ordered so should be as good as new yet again very soon. Thanks for all the help guys, hopefully it will be my last post in the mechanical section :L Thanks again, Rachel

Yeah unfortunately it doesn't turn on at all, gettin diagnostics done on it today so should have the answer later Thanks for the help guys! x

Well i'm going to have a walk out to when my car has been left for just now and have another try, thanks again

Will have another search on the threads, thanks Its really odd that this is happened tho becuase everything around and under the car is almost brand new

Not clicking, not doing anything! Got it up on a ramp and dad had a look at it and tapped the starter and checked the wires but nothing plus we don't know if that is the issue

My 2000 w reg lupo will not start Went out in it today and it was totally fine, parked it at home again and now... nothing! Put the keys in the ignition and all the electrics work fine but it won't start, doesn't even turn over. Got a tow from my dad and the car does start so presumably it’s a starter issue? Anybody have any advice or past experience? Also if it is the starter motor, how much does a new one cost? Thanks, Rachel

Definately getting it lowered! Looking at the gaping hole between the arch and the wheel is far worse As for that hassle taking off the side strips I'm so glad i never have to do that again, haha! Thanks for the comments Guys

I would say that nerves are good, as long as you don't let them get on top of you! I think my driving examinor felt sorry for me becuase i was nervous haha

Yeah it has every peice of documentation all present and correct. Should see the mot certificate from 2008 to 2009, it only goes up a couple of hundred miles. Its crazy! I almost feel quilty driving it but it deserves a good drive, after all thats what it was make for!
