Lupo-Joe Posted September 10, 2011 Report Share Posted September 10, 2011 (edited) Hi people I'm Joe. I got my first lupo in February 2010 and was a flash red 1.0l (which you may have seen is up for sale). I wanted to start something fresh so I brought my self my second lupo, Soft blue, 1.4s, 62k on the clock tonnes of history with it and standard! I thought this would be a good start for me. I will get pictures up ASAP. I know all people are going to say is lows and slam it but I can't afford that ATM so saving up, and I got some G60s in refurbing to go on it. I intend to keep it clean, and how you enjoy to thread for the future.Joee Edited January 1, 2014 by Lupo-Joe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lupo-Joe Posted September 18, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2011 Started the cleaning today, did one side of the engine bay(not finished yet) and cleaned the under bonnet sound proofing.Will get the pics of the engine bay in a bit.Joee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lupo-Joe Posted September 18, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2011 (edited) So uploaded some pictures of my canon today, here some of the car And the nasty scuff on the rear!So today I also started on the engine bay. Alot of people will say I should just keep the bonnet shut but I'd like to get clean, I've start to polish the manifold, and got a new engine cover as the one that came with it was split up! hoping to polish the two rails either side of the ht leads as well, and top it off with a R8 oil cap. But for today I started on the left hand side of the engine using megs apc, AG tar remover (for the real tuff parts) and slot of elbow grease. There's bait more to do this side such as get bit deeper and wax and dress it. Here's some pictures. Enjoy Dirty side..And semi clean side..And under the bonnet (needs polishing and waxing still)..All comments welcome,, Joee Edited September 18, 2011 by Lupo-Joe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lupo-Joe Posted September 18, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2011 (edited) Well I got a 1.0 also at the moment that im tryna sell, and will swap the insurance to my 1.4 once I sold the 1l. So the wipers aint an issue at the moment but they'll be back on soon!! Just want to get some fine wet and dry to colour sand and buff them first.Also if any one has got any experience in spay waxes such as megs ones or other brands I'd be grateful for your results as I'm looking into getting some..Joe Edited September 19, 2011 by Lupo-Joe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
