  1. Hello all, I haven't been here for many moons. But I think this size fits the GTis if I remember correctly. These were supplied by openeo and the wrong size was ordered by mistake. These were £141 and we can supply the oponeo invoice. Looking for £80 cash on collection as of no use to us now. Located in Worcestershire Thanks Joshua
  2. I haven't been in Worcester much recently, been at University in Reading, only used to go to college in Worcester, I live out in Broadway. No you got the wrong guy, my dad's is in dark grey, unfortunate..... Well my Lupo was the GTi with the colour concept interior, and I think you commented on my thread because we both had GTi's at 18 and you asked if I was the mysterious GTi you've seen around Worcester. Anyway literally sold my GTi on Tuesday and upgraded to a 3.2 Alfa GTV so if you see me around Worcester don't try and tailgate me, you won't be able to keep up
  3. I wasn't in there, was picking up the old fart from there. it's not that you drive fast, it's how you drive by tail gating someone slowing down then flying right up behind them again. Apparently you did all the way through the tything once in traffic behind my dad in his Maserati Granturismo S. Was just saying you make us all looking like chavvs that rock around Worcester....
  4. Yeah me and a few of mates have spotted you around. Unforunately outside the coach & horses I had a gentleman come and have a word with me about the way I drove around Worcester in my silver GTi until he later realised it was yourself. Me, my mates and that guy all agree your driving style matches your car's lack of style....
  5. Who owns a silver GTi on red bbs's and a custom exhaust. Seen it around a few times
  6. I think it looks pretty standard. Always parked just outside the front of Halfords backing onto the road down below so I'm guessing whoever owns it probably works there. Just woundered if it was someone on here, as I've passed it few times when I head home at the weekend from university and yet to see any other Lupos since I've been in Reading...
  7. What sort of mileage have they done? Would definately have a set if you're willing to post
  8. I would be interested, how many miles have they done?
  9. How many miles have the FK's done? Also do you still have the GTi bonnet? What colour is is; reflex silver or moon silver? Thanks
  10. How many miles have they done? Thanks
  11. Was a Y Reg on parked on the edge of the housing estate near homebase. I wasn't in my Lupo was in my old man's Maserati. Didn't know of any other GTi's around the droitwich area.
  12. Yes! Mine has got blue stitching on the steering wheel. I agree red would of been better as I've got the red GTi seatbelts. I got it through a friend of a friend that heard I was interested in getting a Lupo GTi. The girl just needed to get rid of it because she needed a diesel and she got off the first owner cheap as she was a family member. I got it cheap as she didn't have a clue what she had, didn't even tell me it had A/C until I viewed it and saw it. She hadn't looked after it very well such as the alloys were kerbed, was VERY VERY dirty, dent in the bonnet. But a guy I race against works for VW and when I spoke to him said he had a GTi engine with only 18,000 miles on that was taken out for Volkswagen Racing and replaced for 1.8T, so I got that engine,brand new alternator, cambelt kit, pumps, flywheel, clutch, plugs, leads, discs, pads, shocks etc.. for about £800 through him as she hadn't changed the oil for about 40,000 miles so thought I would play it safe with all the money left over at that price. Then just bought Bathursts, bonnet off here, got a new centre brake light and made it water tight, stuck some new Toyo 205's on and swapped the sidelights for LED bulbs. Washed, polished and waxed the hell out of it and now it looks almost as good as some of the great ones on here (that are left standard, its the best look ). Only thing left is to buy a lower front bumper as mine is slightly scrathced on the one corner if you look closely, the sort ones only you notice but it stands out everytime you wash it and annoys the hell out of you!! Just put the blue gaitor back on and prefer the black not too keen on too much blue.... will just keep them to wack back on when I come to sell it. Thanks for the advice guys.
  13. Yeah 2 grand does seem made seeing as 2 owners later I only paid £2900 for the whole car!!! However according to the service history the first owner lived in Kensington it seems and had it on a private plate, then only drove it for 4,000 miles in 2 years, so probably wasnt too much for them to wack on a extra £2000.
  14. Just checked the invoice and it says 'blue leather'. I didn't realise it was such a rare option, wasn't until I sold my old alloys to someone on here and he commented on my interior that I had a look around about it. Stuck at college atm only got this photo I took on my phone that has the new black handbrake and gaitor, but looks as though I will definitely be looking buy a new blue gaitor at least as all the top of it is shredded by rings off the previous owners girlfriend . Anyways heres the photo (bad quality on my phone) Will get some more up later of the rest of the interior, I know its standard spec because the guys at VW Listers were impressed when I gave them the chasis number when buying a new centre brake light, gaitor and full exhaust system (ouch!)
  15. No I've got the original invoice of when it was bought brnad new from VW and it's on there, I bought this car with more luck than judgement.
