HalfOfZero Posted February 5, 2012 Report Share Posted February 5, 2012 Love it, love the obscure colour and love that back bumper.. Saw it posted the other day on a Facepage group thing.My question is, is it genuine? The engine doesn't look that tightly fitted, if you know what I mean? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The engine doesn't look that tightly fitted, if you know what I mean?well its a genuine lupo, hes just put a 1.9tdi lump in and states it is equally as fast as a gti but with double mpg!i think its looks tidy....next years winter wheels are definitely decided upon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

treblet Posted February 5, 2012 Report Share Posted February 5, 2012 Out of interest, what would you change Ray? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver! Posted February 5, 2012 Report Share Posted February 5, 2012 I wouldn't change per say, but the mating between the side skirts and the front wing, particularly on the LH is a bit off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thooooom Posted February 6, 2012 Report Share Posted February 6, 2012 username 'marcus' or more recently 'm4rcus'he also runs a really nice GTIthread : http://forums.clublupo.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=40151&st=20this GTD is a standard with gti front end conversation isnt it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
treblet Posted February 6, 2012 Report Share Posted February 6, 2012 Yes it's a GTI front end conversion and some sort of GTI-alike side skirts.It would almost be sacrilege to turn a proper GTI into a diesel... even if it is a 150bhp GT TDI engine!

HalfOfZero Posted February 6, 2012 Report Share Posted February 6, 2012 well its a genuine lupo, hes just put a 1.9tdi lump in and states it is equally as fast as a gti but with double mpg!i think its looks tidy....next years winter wheels are definitely decided upon Indeed. What I ment was it didn't look factory tight? If that makes sense lol. And clearly not, because it isn't. I first seen it on a foreign VW fb group, so the detail was unreadable... At first I thought it was a factory model, but as mentioned, it';s a conversion.Gotta say.... I ****ing love this.Interior shots? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeA Posted February 6, 2012 Report Share Posted February 6, 2012 They're 3L side skirts are they not, with gti wings hence the slight misfit that ray mentioned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
