  2. Hello, im Gary, im 21 from Newcastle. I've been a member on here for a while now but never really posted much. Little bit of car history, I started off with a 1.4 Lupo E which I loved! I had that about a year or so before I fancied getting something a little old school, so I picked up a 89' polo saloon, paid £400 and it only had 40000 miles on. Sadly, one night after I parked it up, a friend of mine crashed into it while he was dicking around and wrote it off! So after a few month of being off the road, I got the money from the insurance and picked up an Arosa, 1litre which stayed standard. I then lost my job and had to sell up. Once I got another job I had an urge for another mk2 polo, again a saloon which I got cheap off ebay. Had less miles than my previous one with only 30000! Again that stayed standard and I eventually got bored and decided to sell up. I went around 6 month without a car and it was awful, eventually got sick and decided I wanted another Lupo or Arosa. I found this for sale just around the corner from my house, 02 Silver 1litre with only 28000 and FSH! Was advertised for 1295 and I got it for 1175 which I was happy with. I've had insured about a week now and it drives like a new car, the body work is a bit rough, scrapes on both bumpers, both sides and rust around the petrol cap, hopefully all of which will be sorted pretty soon! I have a few plans for it, first of which is to sort the interior, it has the all light grey interior which I hate! So I have bought a Gti interior including red seat belts. Im going to wait until I find all the dark grey plastics and carpet before fitting them, but here they are, havn't got around to cleaning the fronts yet. I bought some alloys to go on the polo but never got around to getting them refurbed or fitted! So they will more than likely be refurbed and will end up on this I also picked up some brand new Cambridge rears from the dealers! They will probably go in once the paintwork is sorted! And finally, the one thing no Lupo or Arosa should be without That's what I have purchased so far, future plans are: - Get bodywork sorted - Fit all of the above - Pressed plates - Wind deflectors - Rear pop-out windows - Front fogs - Some sort of ICE (sub/amp/rear speakers) - Stubby mirrors - VW Starlite alloys Think thats about it I think! As I say I will keep updating as and when things happen, hopefully wont be too long before I get it looking how I want it! Comments/feedback appreciated! Bye for now! Gary
  3. I need new tyres on the starlites so I can put them back on for summer. Need to have good performance and rim protection (my mum drives it). I had Federal SS-595 previously which looked great but performance wasn't great in the wet, especially the more they wore out. Only tyres I can really come up with are Yokohama S drives. Anyone running these in 185/55? Thoughts? T1R's are available in 195/55/14, these would have been ideal as they have good performance and rim protection. I have seen them on standard 6J arosa alloys and they were slightly ballooned so reckon they would look good on a 7J. Although they are hard to get hold of now and expensive. P.S. Not dropping to 194/45/14 as I want to keep the gearing up and the car isn't on coilovers.
  4. For Sale - Lupo TDI Anthracite Grey - 70,000 miles £2500 o.n.o Note: Car is recorded as damage / repaired due to a non-fault shunt in the back which bent the back bumper reinforcement beam and slightly cracked the bumper whilst I was stationery at a junction - insurer would only pay out for the cost of parts to repair the vehicle myself after frustratingly insisting on using Benfield approved repairers, who quoted £2500 for the repair! The reinforcement beam has now been completely replaced and the bumper crack can be repaired before sale (negotiable in price). Car will be fully MOT'd before sale. I have photos of before and after the repair and am more than happy to share to show how genuine the car is Those of you who have seen my car for sale prior to the bump will know that the sale is not a knee-jerk reaction from the incident but more a long-standing desire to own a mini! I will not accept any completely daft offers just because of the bump and would rather keep the motor and run it into the ground than lose masses of cash on an outstanding car for something that wasn't my fault... Spec is as follows: - Anthracite Grey - 70,000 miles - Cambelt changed @ 42,000 miles - 1.4 TDI - Alpine double DIN IPOD compatible head unit. - Front Fog lights (factory fitted) - Starlite alloys (factory fitted) - GTI Grey interior (factory fitted - New Exhaust fitted around 4 months ago. - Two front tyres fitted around 2 months ago. - Meets £30 road tax! - Cambridge lights (factory fitted) - Sports suspension (factory fitted) Pics below: Any questions, feel free to call or text on 07545193404 or ping me on here. Cheers, Ryan
