lupiloo Posted March 16, 2007 Report Share Posted March 16, 2007 (edited) HiMy old Golf GL 1.8 Mk 1 (1989) went to meet its maker last week. But I'm no longer sad, because yesterday I bought an 02 bright blue Lupo 1.0 E and it's fab. It feels positively space-age after the Golf. Bought from one previous lady owner and only 27,000 miles on the clock, and I saved myself the premium slapped on by a dealer. style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shades:" border="0" alt="shades.gif" />I have had to kiss goodbye to whizzing down the fast lane of the M4, but this is more than compensated for by the Lupo's being much Greener and cheaper to run.Had a rather embarrassing moment at a petrol station this evening - couldn't for the life of me unlock the petrol cap after several mins of struggling with it. style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":blush:" border="0" alt="blush.gif" /> Had to ask the owner of a Passat parked in front of me for assistance, explaining my predicament. He chuckled and was able to show me very easily how it's done, because his wife happens to own a Lupo!I did have plans to get a Polo, but am sooo glad I bought the Lupo instead, and this site helped persuade me, so thx.Happy driving,lupiloo Edited March 16, 2007 by lupiloo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
