Look elswhere I think. As there appears to be no way to get a test drive as even the closest 2nd hand one is in ruislip which is way to far to go for test drive.

Who said this at Vw was it Customer Services or the Press Office? As I have jus spoken to customer servies who said that they are only available from stock. That there was about 5 silver and 3 black gti's with ac available. One newton abbot, one going to guernsy and the rest where all at dealers up north.

Looks like my decision on what colour and spec has been made for me. After talking to my local dealer today, I was told that VW are no longer taking factory orders for the Lupo Gti. There are also none available from stock in Tornado Red and their a none in any colour available with Leather. As they haven't got any in on their fleet the closet I seem to be able to get is as a passenger with the salesman in a lupo gti before the person that has bought it takes delivery. Any suggestions anybody?

What is the real life 0-60 time as I think that the figure vw put in the brochure are usually a bit slower than the actual time. ALso what is the bhp per tonne?

I may take you up on that kind offer. I will see what the dealer comes up with and let you know. Do you happen to know what the difference between flash and tornado red is?

Has anyone got a pic of Lupo Gti that is definatly Tornado Red, as this is the current colour offerd by VW?

Do you know the spec that they where going for?

I looking at getting a new one. I down in Surrey. I am currently split between a Red one as they appear to be quite rare, and silver one. My main concern is how tough thre red paint will be in comparison to the metallic silver. Do all Gti's have red calipers and seat belt's?

I was just looking through the brochure and noticed that you don't get a spare wheel. Is there space for one, or do you just have to make do with the repair kit.

I am currently looking into getting a lupo Gti. I am hoping to have a test drive next saturday. I am looking at getting a silver or Red one. Does anyone know how Flash Red differs from the currently offered Tornado Red? Does anyone have or know where I can see a picture of both the colours? For those that own a gti in either of the reds are they easy to look after.
