lupo1.0se Posted December 13, 2012 Report Share Posted December 13, 2012 Unlikely.There aren't that many in the country. If there are any they get snapped up quick.I have only seen a couple myself for sale, but i doubt theres much more than 5 in the country.

georgen Posted December 13, 2012 Report Share Posted December 13, 2012 Not many here as weren't released here, they are a few about like but come up rarely Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpsh120 Posted December 13, 2012 Report Share Posted December 13, 2012 I had to google lupo 3l - I thought you were all talking about a 3 litre Lupo! Now that would be worth buying Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted December 13, 2012 Report Share Posted December 13, 2012 No it wouldn't, it'd handle worse than a 2.5v6 corsa, and they handle like a blind epileptic riding a jet ski. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Koop Posted December 13, 2012 Report Share Posted December 13, 2012 (edited) No it wouldn't, it'd handle worse than a 2.5v6 corsa, and they handle like a blind epileptic riding a jet ski.Why?[edit] never mind, I realise now you were talking about a 3.0L Lupo as opposed to a Lupo 3L Edited December 13, 2012 by Koop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

electricracer Posted December 14, 2012 Report Share Posted December 14, 2012 do some sums. if its only for economy,(cant see any other reason you would want one) then is the difference in price between a 1.4tdi and 3l going to cover the cost saving of fuel? 3l does about 90mpg 1.4tdi does about 75mpg, cost difference to buy car £3k. thats a lot of fuelalso if it goes wrong it will be very expensive lots of special parts.

Pete91 Posted December 15, 2012 Report Share Posted December 15, 2012 I'm bored and sad and worked out that if you buy a 3l purely for economy then it will take 21.22 years before you start saving any money (using an average of 10,000 miles/year and a flat average of £1.40 per litre) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adesignercallednick Posted December 15, 2012 Report Share Posted December 15, 2012 even sadder than you working that out Pete is the fact i found it pretty interesting 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RS6plusMTM Posted December 15, 2012 Report Share Posted December 15, 2012 If you really want one just import it from Germany. As we're all in the EU there will be no import duty or vat to pay, just the hassle of going over to pick one up.www.mobile.de always has quite a few listed online, but be prepared to pay top dollars as they hold their value really well (so 5k for one already in the uk doesn't sound a million miles away for what they go for in Getmany) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamiea7x Posted December 18, 2012 Report Share Posted December 18, 2012 just buy a 1.4 tdi, and use the extra cash on the 3l front end, if youre 3l runs into nay bother i for one wouldnt like to see the cost of parts, majority of it is specific to that car, so wont be cheap or easy to find, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm quids in!RAB7k for brand new 3l !!!! thats a no brainer, keeping it for 11 years thats free motoring (as long as no big bills)but they dont make them new anymore and as they hold their price so well its cheaper to buy the 1.4tdii would love a 3l (just because) and was actively looking to import, but potential big bills and residual values ment it was far more cost effective to get 1.4tdiif they were only 7k new and you can still get 5.5k 11 years later, that has to be the lowest depreciation of any car!
