  1. He's also selling this pile of **** https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Vw-lupo/125089123586
  2. I didn't realize you can buy e5?
  3. OEM for sure. Halfrauds cheapo speakers are not a patch on them.
  4. Well I'd start with the EML mate. It's telling you something.
  5. Any EML? You taken it for an Italian tuneup lately? Serviced recently?

    Wtf

    Blending isn't exactly rocket science. 90% of the work involves getting the surface truly flat, prepping (rinse and repeat) and sourcing the right paint shade which is getting harder for old VW's. If you get those things right then it's just about effort with various levels of sandpaper. You'll never get a perfect body shop paint job here, but you're talking, what a 1.0 perhaps? It isn't worth spunking money on and is worth learning a skill that could be useful in the future. OR, as others have sensibly suggested, put the strips back on.

    Wtf

    You'll never get it perfect but with the right combination of sanding and perhaps filler + necessary paint and lacquer of course, you could do a very decent job. Great learning exercise.

    Wtf

    You could blend that fairly easily I reckon.
  9. Mileage is stored on the eeprom in the clocks. It's not a massively complicated job to fix the mileage but you need to, at least, know what you're doing. They are brickable. @mk2 you do indeed!!
  10. Yes. Totally plug and play. Expect your mileage to be incorrect though.
  11. I'm sure Rich has talked about this mod. If doable, it would be interesting to see what economy is achievable.
  12. I would love a 3L but I think RAB sums it up. There's a lack of knowledge in the UK about them. You'll need to be very capable of 3L maintenance, whereas a plain jane TDI/SDI is more like your typical car.
  13. Odd combination. Most people who have done such a swap go for a 1.4 gearbox in a 1.0.
  14. No, just reproduced it on my phone though: https://clublupo.co.uk is being redirected to AMG via an SSL man in the middle attack/redirect. http://clublupo.co.uk is redirecting to clublupo site as expected.
  15. I think you need to price it accordingly then otherwise it won't sell.
  16. My suggestion would be find the time to sort that window issue and you have a perfect car for someone. Words like "easy fix" don't stretch very far if you're an 18 year old who has never so much as done your own oil change. Price is right, if work is done.
  17. Have you considered the throttle cable?
  18. In all honesty, not that long at all. Extracted the pin and adapted a new key. Then it was just all the fun that comes after the engine turns over for the first time.
  19. Me and @mattarosa brought an immobilized 6n2 Polo GTI conversion to life tonight which had the original standard key. Surprising amount of fun
  20. You scanned it yet? Could be a damaged MAF sensor still plugged. Wouldould cause this issue, or an air leak also... Both would indeed light up EPC light, if you have no EML.
  21. Expect to see it as an unfinished project coming to an eBay near you, very soon.
