  1. Thought about it already.. Im sure i will in time
  2. Are you losing the tints? Would look better i feel.
  3. Cheers, i too like the red trim so will stay.
  4. Thats cool, they are rare as they are without being butchered to be honest
  5. Thanks mate, i wont be changing it, not into the whole air ride vag scene to be honest Pondering on kw coilovers and rear spacers but that would be as far as modifications go, and simple to put back.
  6. I got the mats from a site called simply car mats
  7. Hi chris, not to worry regarding the mats mate I also presumed that was why the service light popped up, no biggie, just making note of everything for this thread really, no dig. It will be looked after
  8. No as it is my 'daily' to a degree, not used everyday for work, but will be kept well maintained and up together best i can. In the process of saving aswell for my own place after moving back home and any garage i can get will house my dads clio v6 i will inherit..
  9. Thanks mate, i got them from halfords of all places Look for A928S on the bosch packaging and they will be the right ones
  10. Hello everyone Ive been on this forum a while, always browsed on and off and owned a black lupo gti in the past, i messaged chris about his laser blue gti that would he ever sell it i would be interested, time went by and i signed into clublupo and noticed i had a message, it was chris mentioning it would be going up for sale shortly but i realised i had my old email address on this forum so didnt get it straight away... Rookie error on my part, when i put the advert up for my golf, i knew how rare this gti was but with only having put my r32 up for sale i was all but sure it would sell before i could sell mine.. I then happened to sell mine in the space of a few weeks with a deposit left on mine after a week..praying the little lupo hadnt been sold, i got back in contact with chris and i put a deposit on it as soon as i got a deposit on the golf, all went very smoothly which was great and very rarely pans out that way.. So me and my father drove the 3 hour trip up to see it in Sheffield, was nice drive up and then there tucked away was the lupo gti, immediately made me smile, and a great colour in the flesh, we got chatting and went out in it, agreed a price and the lupo was making its way down south. For those that dont know, laser blue is the rarest colour for the gti with a rumoured 10 or so ever made, added to the fact this particular gti has air con, heated leather seats and the 6 disc cd changer, making it a very well speced car indeed. Im the 5th owner and it has just turned 65k miles So my first week in ownership of the little lupo, i am quite a fussy bugger with cars and made a little list of things i wanted to do or change.. Firstly the wheels were rebalanced as the drive home i got quite abit of wheel wobble, which has now cured the problem, i purchased little touches like new wiper blades, side repeaters as one had condensation in, new stickers for the key inserts that were missing, pic below will show this, new mats as the ones in the car were abit pants and not the correct fitment and slid as weren't held in place, i removed a few stickers, one a pistonhead in the rear screen and a k and n sticker in the engine bay, i prefer the cleaner look.. Sorry chris Its booked in tomorrow at jkm portsmouth to have a look over the car as a couple of things cropped up, the battery light flashed which it hasnt since but worth checking over and the oil service light come up, yet has just been serviced... And for me the only gripe is the clutch to me doesnt quite feel right so will get that replaced should it need it, like i say im fussy but couldn't turn down a laser blue gti that was in great condition overall Sorry for mumbling on haha, so the lupo, like i say i bought new mats that i had custom made to replicate the oem mats which are hens teeth now or an arm and a leg to buy New mats.. Replacing the old.. Little touches.. Condensation.. Been replaced Stickers removed.. And some of the car.. So thats where the lupo is at for now Cheers stefan
