Sarahs Lupo

of course you can! the SDI is perfect you can buy a kit off ebay around £150

thank you it was a great car! i have upgraded to a 2006 VW touran for the family lol and the maintenance continues

So the end of an era. the lupo is sold thanks to everyone who contributed to the thread. unless the new owner wants to continue this then it can be closed much appreciated everyone

i am very very south from you - it took me 10 years from my first lupo to get another so never say never

i think you both might be right but i have 4 cars already and a little one on the way and its just not feasible unfortunately. i have used it as much as i can for everything i can throw at it but there comes a time when i need to get a larger car and that has happened now.

The time has come to sell the lupo - a growing family means the car will not get used anymore. A replacement VW touran has been bought so this one is up for sale Will get a post up on facebook soon but the particulars are below in case anyone wants to send me a message. 2004 Volkswagen Lupo 1.7 SDI Pros: 4 Previous Owners 2 keys Full Service History New standard full exhaust system All brake hoses changed @ 130k Cambelt changed @ 150k Clutch changed @ 137k New glow plugs @ 146K Various new parts (Drop links, lower arms, arb bushes, ball joints) New brakes all around Potential new pedal box (common issue) Original handbook All tyres have great tread Spare soft blue front bumper Spare soft blue front indicator panel Spare rear drums Cons: Looks Tatty - Most panels have scratches Offside front wheel arch showing bubbling Rear offside quarter has a ding causing surface rust to appear Sunroof only works with engine off

Nope. I have the same grade of oil and just do my oil changed every year. I’m on 172k now.

Nothing new to report really. Ticking along nicely, managed to squeeze 33.89L Into my diesel tank and emptied it in around 440 miles which is the most I have stuck into the tank and the most amount of miles. It’s around 64mpg which is lovely.

UPDATE: Hit a cool milestone today

I will have to check when im in the new house. i still have VCDS lite and the little cable so i could check with your help im sure. i managed 400 miles until the petrol light has come on. currently on 420 so i need to fill up now i am very impressed

I tell ya what though. Found the little air bleed nipple thing. Poked it with the petrol pump the last time I filled up. Might make it to 400 miles on this tank. Which is more than I ever have

Amazing thanks

Got a pic ?

That’s very kind of you 90k is not even run in! I have a different front bumper and indicator panel to instal once I move into my new place so it should tidy up the front, and if I’m honest I need a front wing at some point as rust has started to bubble. Obviously I’ll update when this gets sorted. The weather seems to be on the change so I’ll be glad to get into a double garage very soon
