Paul Posted February 27, 2005 Report Share Posted February 27, 2005 style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad.gif" /> It's all too bland and has lost the style. There's more than a hint of Corsa in the rear panel, C2 in the rear windows, and Punto in the headlights... Is it a parts bin special :?: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Posted February 27, 2005 Report Share Posted February 27, 2005 Incidentally, how come Corsa comes out with an asterisk? Is there an 'offensive Vauxhall models blocker' on this forum? style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

one litre wonder ;) Posted February 27, 2005 Report Share Posted February 27, 2005 the previous pictures that i have seen of the fox looked cool but that just looks plain pish! style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":evil:" border="0" alt="evil.gif" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigz™ Posted February 27, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2005 Ya I think it looks plain.But then I thought the Lupo did before modded.Im not sure, theres parts of it I like, parts of the interior look cool, so at least there is something to work with.Its gonna depend what models they bring out.If it come to a choice between a Polo and this, Id like tyo take a look at this, just as its something a little diffrent, but...I've seen the vrS now, so theres no way I'll be buy from VW :wink:Holding out judgment till I see this in the flesh.I dont like the mk5 Golf.But the GTi look fantasic.Maybe it'll be the same with the 'Fox'?

twisty b-road Posted February 27, 2005 Report Share Posted February 27, 2005 It'll look more like a vw when the real rear lights and the rear side windows aren't disguisedDefinitely lost it's cheekiness Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
db Posted February 27, 2005 Report Share Posted February 27, 2005 I hope that they've gathered from the test around that track that the handlling sucks, it looks like it's about to tip over. Thankgod the lights wont look like that, you can see they're a sticker and the outline of the clusters is round. I wholly agree with what tigz said though about the mk5 golf, hopefully it will be the same with the lupo mk2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snoopy Posted February 27, 2005 Report Share Posted February 27, 2005 Just cos it's leaning doesn't mean the handling sucks - it's a VW 'trait' for the rear wheel to leave the ground under hard cornering style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />Anyway, doesn't look like a sporty variant (narrow tyres), so I reckon they're making sure it's 'controllable' (i.e. bags of understeer style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad.gif" />) rather than seeing how fast it'll go round corners.

Loopy Lupo Posted February 27, 2005 Report Share Posted February 27, 2005 as i have said on many ocassions......euro****box TM...it's about time vw got their collective heads out their arses and started putting some fooking flair into their designs. and, no i'm not saying the loop has any flair at all - yes the gti looks chunky - yes it's rare, and yes i love it......perhaps because it is quite rare and different, but fooking hell climb out of the 'box' you tossers. ford did it with the last focus, then shat themselves (even though it sold in bucket loads) so sensibly they decided to shoot the designers of the 'original' and employ some euro ****wits to design the new one!! smart have desined the roadster - imo that car says 'you want me', the fox says 'you can buy me or one of my equally dull counterparts'....nuff said.

tdwindustries Posted February 28, 2005 Report Share Posted February 28, 2005 i am a bit philisophical this morning....but...the whole reason the Lupo now is cool is because it is a MKI - it had to compete with established cars in that segment. I remember when it was launched, before the GTI, and it was the coolest VW you could buy I really really really wanted one and they were little style icons - people bought them cos they were cool and looked cheeky and funky. That market has changed, the Lupo has had to grow up - it will probably sell in hugher numbers.,.. theres no reason for me to buy a new lupo, unless they build a turbo'ed GTI... its got nothing cool about it whatsoever. style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad.gif" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
