  1. Well done to everyone that got trophies the standard of Lupo`s this year was outstanding. Cheers, it`s actually my 5th Edition38 trophy I`ve had two 1st places two 2nd places and 3rd this year,I didn`t think I would have the Lupo this year but decided to keep it and do the stuff I was planning, but I ran out of time due to a family bereavement, Will get the rest done over the winter.
  2. Check out this topic my brother fitted mine http://forums.clublupo.co.uk/index.php?sho...mp;#entry438856
  3. It`s a Leon cupra R spoiler.
  4. I`ve got 7x16" +8x16" Teledials I think the et is 52.5 and I`ve got 20mm adaptors with 195/40/16 tyres and its just a case of bolt on your adaptor ,mine has 4 allen key bolts then bolt on your wheels easy peasy. Need to watch out for the wheels et so that they don`t stick out too far and rub etc Cost wise the adaptors are about £130 ish but can be bought 2nd hand and wheels depend on condition + rarity
  5. Mines is reflex silver.I used to deliver parts to bodyshops and in that time (10 months) I`ve seen two written off silver Gtis
  6. I was lucky enough to be one of the first people to drive one of Scotlands first Gti`s. I worked at my local Vw dealers when the Gti`s were launched and I was the second person at work to drive it. It was a silver 5speed with red interior, I was in charge of the valeting team but I chose to valet it myself and after my little test drive in it I said 1 day I`ll get me one of these. The shape of the flared archs and bumpers, the cheeky centre exit exhaust, the sporty looking interior,the sound of it when your giving it some beans (sounds better with the BMC now)the way it drives (also better now that it`s on coilovers)and the fact that they`re not that common (although there was 4 silver Gti`s at the scottishvag mega meet) I traded in My Octavia Vrs for a silver 6speeder. It was my first new car and I knew with a few subtle tweeks suspension + wheels it would look cool, I saw a picture in the Golf+ june/july 04 off a grey Gti with porche wheels and that kindae sealed the deal.
  7. Edited to say mm instead of cm Is there any standard Gti measurements ??I`ll re measure when I put the standard wheels on this week. I HATE GRITTERS + CRAP WEATHER
  8. I never measured it before and after but if any one wants to measure their standard one (through the centre of the wheels from the arch to the ground) then heres my numbers Front 56.5cm Rear 55cm Ground clearance at the Cupra R spoiler is 8.5cm Wheels are 16" Teledials
  9. I have my own reserved space when I go shopping I know its been done but ..
  10. Cheers for the comments, heres some more..
  11. I`d have to say a silver supercharged Vento Vr6 black leather slammed on coilovers and porsche wheels and brakes subltly stlyled along the OEM+ theme.
  12. Here`s some new pics taken the other night, I have loads of photies of it but not a lot of "arty" ones so my sisters boyfriend decided to rectify this. I`ve got some more that I`ll post up later.
  13. Here`s my effort Lowered on FK coilovers could still go down a wee bit but I like to drive it(plus i need to get it out my drive lol)
  14. Mines has got the lightest tint that was available from the tinters, the tinter says he puts this tint on the front of cars because its so light. I got it all round cos it was a subtle tint.
  15. They`ve spelt my name wrong and theres a pic of my Lupo saying "best POLO"
