Renault Clio turbine alloys for sale. Got these to go on my old lupo but never got round to fitting them. Sold the lupo and theses have been sat in the garage. Nice overall condition have been diamond cut by the previous owner. All centre caps present and bolts but no key. Easy to remove with screw driver/pliers etc. No kerb marks the only real defect/marks are some moisture that's affected the Laquer coating in a few places. Centre caps have a few marks and imperfections also but again still look good. There not perfect but still look really nice. 15x6.5j 4x100 tyres are 195/45 R15 Tyres are Barums and have done less than 1000 miles so loads of tread left. PRICE = £320.00 Collection only Based in Newcastle upon Tyne will let the pictures do the rest Any questions just ask thanks Phil

Hi silver Thanks for the reply I have bathurts alloys and they fit my car great no issues running 195 45 r15s just like the look of these am lowered on coilovers and don't want to mess around with fitment etc just pop some tyres on and bolt on no messing. According to the advert they are Et 45 Width 6.5j pcd 4 X 100 No centre bore listed I thought all vw were 57.1? Thanks phil

Can any one confirm if these will fit on a lupo Any help much appreciated Thanks Phil

Hi No air con Thanks Phil

Hi, For sale is my is 2004 Lupo TDI sport this will be available around February 2015 as I am in the process of removing my private number plate. This car has been in my family from new purchased by my grandfather from VW Benfield Newcastle on the 10.09.2004. He owned the car until around 2011 when my brother purchased it from him. I then purchased it from my brother in 2013. This is my 3rd car and to be honest is wasted on me I just don’t do the miles to justify keeping it any longer. Used to drive to work on Monday morning where it is then parked up until the Thursday/Friday as I am an HGV driver and work away from home most of the week. Hence why I only cover around 3k miles between MOT’s. Very cheap to run and insure. My self my wife and brother are all in our mid 30’s and used the car to commute to and from work. I will genuinely be sad to see this go as they are such a rare car in this engine/spec. Very well looked after little car if it needed anything doing it got done as simple as that really. Serviced at VW Dealers all its life with the exception of the last service. A very low mileage example with only 36,000 miles in very good overall condition. I will try to include as much information as possible in the advert to detail the service history/maintenance Lupo TDI Sport Engine 1.4 tdi Year 2004 (54 reg) Mileage 36,000 Colour Black MOT 9th August 2015 Location Newcastle Upon Tyne Tax £30.00 per year MPG 50+ Service history 30-08-05 4443 miles VW Benfield Newcastle 07-09-06 8165 miles VW Benfield Newcastle 16-08-07 10762 miles + Brake Fluid Change VW Benfield Newcastle 11-08-08 12602 miles + Air/Fuel Filter VW Benfield Newcastle 08-09-08 13130 miles Timing Belt Replaced VW Benfield Newcastle 10-08-09 15275 miles VW Benfield Newcastle 05-08-10 16639 miles VW Benfield Newcastle 14-09-10 17005 miles Brake Fluid Change only VW Benfield Newcastle 01-08-11 18372 miles VW Benfield Newcastle 03-08-12 24725 miles + Brake Fluid change VW Wayside Aylesbury 15-10-13 31288 miles + Air/Fuel Filter Professional Auto Solutions Morpeth 28-06-14 34050 miles Timing/Aux Belt and Water Pump VW Benfield Newcastle 22-09-14 34766 miles Front discs/pads only Swift Motor Engineering VW Specialists Newcastle Bodywork/Exterior Really is a great example and must be one of the last lupo tdi’s put on the road in the uk. Always washed regularly and paint work always comes up with a nice shine as you can see in the photos. The body work is not perfect and as the car is 10yrs old and has been used for the daily commute popping to the shops etc. Has the usual odd stone chip car park dink as most do and been black in colour tends to show every little scratch/mark when cleaned. 2x car park dinks where someone has obviously opened there door into the rear quarter panels there is one on both sides of the car. These are the only 2 that I really notice. No paint damage and if you wanted them repaired a dent wizard would be able to sort these. Small dent on edge of drivers door very small not easy to spot at all. Small area near top of drivers door where it meets roof has been touched in with a touch up stick/pen at some point. Drivers side front wing has started to bubble ever so slightly under the paint on the wheel arch. No broken paint just started within the last 6 months. Like I said comes up great after a good wash/valet and I am been very critical about the faults/imperfection. This car could easily be turned into a show car in my opinion. Never been machined polished or detailed professionally if this was done it would benefit the black paintwork greatly. Modifications Only modifications are a set of Weitec coilovers purchased from Awsome GTI. These were fitted to the car at 30,000 miles so not seen much use really. Professional Auto Solutions fitted these who I trust as they look after my two other cars one being my track prepped Renault sport 172. The door strips have been removed also. Interior is factory standard same interior as the GTI model. Even has the original VW tape deck radio. Summary Full VW owners pack with service book stamped, Radio code, Key code all present loads of invoices to back up the service book . Genuine superb little car with only 36k miles. Had all the big high cost jobs/items done within the last few thousand miles. Timing belt aux belt and water pump invoice totalling £410.00 Due an oil service is booked in to VW to have this done in Jan 2015 Also getting new front section of exhaust system as just started blowing. Car currently has the standard 14inch alloys fitted for the winter I also have the following that will be included in the sale if the full asking price is met. · Set of Lupo GTI bathurts alloys with centre caps currently painted gunmetal grey need refurb (no tires) · Original suspension (covered 30k) · Set of Lupo GTI suspension (covered 60k) · Whiteline rear ARB Price £ 3650.00 (with all of the above parts) Would be willing to drop price to £ 3350.00 with the car returned to standard/original suspension and none of the spare parts included. These will then be sold separately. Would love it to go to member on here ideally Viewings test drives welcome as long as you have proof of insurance otherwise I will be driving. Pictures show the car with the Bathurts alloys in black and also with standard silver 14inch alloys which are currently fitted for the winter. I will let the pictures do the talking Thanks Phil 07595456962 Bathurts Fitted for summer Winter setup

Hi Dan, I've had my tdi for 2yr now and to be honest I get between 280-340 miles per tank. This is a 10 mile trip to work in the morning and running about town on the weekends etc. On a long run on motorway it's much better for economy but I don't do these often have had 380 miles plus before. Had the major service done on mine last year and old air filter was ruined this has helped a little. My fuel light comes on really early it's easy to get another 50 + miles out of the tank. When I do refill I always struggle to get 30 litres in so there was still around 4 litres of fuel left in the tank. I always use the oil from vw I think it's called quantum good stuff and regular oil changes on tdi's are important. Yes you should feel the turbo come in just over 1500 rpm it doesn't last long though but I most definitely notice mine it's one of the cars best characteristics a surge of power boost at low rpm. Phil

35k 54 plate 1.4 TDI

I paid £400.00 at vw main dealer just a few months ago for the following. Cambelt kit water pump auxiliary belt kit On my 1.4 TDI And car was fully washed valerted etc I thought it was a decent price personally Phil

Just to update Fault found exhaust bracket snapped not far from flexi just before the cat. Hopefully get sorted this week.

Ok so my car has been parked up for 3days at work while I have been away. Got in drove home and at 1500 rpm I can hear a different engine sound to normal it's louder but not much but I know it's not right. When I say say engine sound I mean a distinctive change in tone to the norm. Parked up once home turned radio/fans off etc It's definitely slightly noiser sounding while sitting in the car with it just idling. Then I sat in the back and it seems noisier in the back than the front while idling. I can also hear the change in tone while reving past 1500 but then goes to normal. Rev up to red line everything sounds normal as it used to. Could it be the exhaust is blown? Or maybe cat collapsed ? The engine itself sounds fine only time I can hear a difference is at 1500 rpm or sitting In car at idle with windows all up etc it just sounds that bit noiser. And more so if I climb in the back seats. Everything in engine bay looked ok. However I did notice some wet looking oil coming from top inter cooler pipe and bottom pipe looks dirty also. Not much but enough for me to notice. Praying it's not turbo related Car is lupo tdi sport 35k Major service done last sept all filters oil etc Cam belt/water pump aux belt done last month at vw dealer Just flown through mot 2weeks ago Car seems to drive fine with no power loss. Don't seem to be throwing out any smoke from the back etc... Any other owners had any experience of this? Any help info tips greatly appreciated Thanks Phil

Just to update Had the car in the garage today. Wiper motor fine Stalk fine Fuse fine Fault traced to small section of burnt out wire behind dash board. Strange the fuse did not blow however it's all sorted now Cheers Phil

No washers not working either. Whole stalk is not functioning Hopefully get it fixed within the next week. Will update with the outcome. Cheers Phil
