Looked like you all had a blast!! Shame I couldn't join you all!
Was at "vanfest" for weekend with van and Lupo!
If you are meeting this side of the bridge and you wanted to be part of something bigger there is the Vw charity Xmas meet and then cruise at washingpool farm in Bristol on Sunday 12th December. Got details of this at the weekend and will post details when I can!

well done stu looks like your gonna have to put a few shelves up soon for all these trophies my missus keeps putting mine under the spare bed
Cheers!
I can't believe after all your effort she hides your trophies under a bed!!
Try that with her shoes and handbags and I bet it would be a different story!!

Love the contrasting colour of the interior to the outside paint! Look forward to seeing this!
What ice do you plan to put in?

Another trophy Ryan- fantastic! Many congratulations! Stu
-
Well done mate!
Very much deserved from what I've seen so far.
Keep up the good work and I'm sure you'll have plenty more where that came from!!
Thankyou very much Treblet!
Much appreciated!

Well... Over the weekend we all went to vanfest which Is now the worlds biggest transporter show from splitscreen to current models, in malvern.
I took the Lupo up as out of the 13 categories there is one for cars. Big lineup in this section including caddy pickups, polo, and lots of classic beetles, etc
Much to my surprise I came away with an amazing momento...
Managed to win my class and got the trophy, rosette and 40 quid!! Totally stoked and really pleased for my little car getting recognition!!
Every competitor on the showfield voted thier top two cars in each section, apart from thier own. This means a lot as everyone understands each others build.

Thanks Alex and Verity!
No real news at moment. I've ordered a strut brace - not for performance - but more to 'lift' the engine bay, but it's on back order! Boo!
Been tidying engine bay a bit more- Found some excellent aluminium very high temp paint but it's a lengthy process!
I also found some top suspension mount caps that are Audi TT ones but they fit fine!
Going to 'vanfest' today - better get some sleep!! Yawn! ;-)
-
Thought I'd include a pic of the dash as it stands today. At present the dash inserts have a vinyl carbon wrap but the real stuff is back on Thursday!
Went to our local vw dealership today and got my lost tow eye cap cover which I've sprayed tonight and will put lacquer on tomorrow. They were really helpful and came out to look in the engine bay to look at replacing correct parts.

Looking nice alex!

Big Congrats on your win Mitch-very well deserved! Will look forward to seeing it in the flesh! Stu:-)

Very, Very Niiicceeee Ryan! Big congrats on a well deserved WIN! Your Lupo is looking stunning!
Amazing trophy too! Stu;-)

Sounds like you all had a blast! I see there is going to be another strapline being bandied about!! Well done to all the trophy winners!
-
Gutted that I havnt made it to Edition- hope all you guys and gals are having and have had an awesome time!
Look forward to all the pics!
-
Love the new look Jamie! Sorted!!

Well, unless your coming to my work or my house tomorrow Gilybob you won't see it. Gutting as it is I'm NOT going to Edition!
:-( boooo!
-
I've decided not to use the second hand TT gearknob that I got mainly because I found a supplier who makes really good quality billet items and they look awesome!!
I think I bought this to cheer myself up for not going to edition!
Whilst I was there I couldn't resist the matching oil cap - a welcome bit of bling to the engine bay!
I think it makes a welcome change to the R8 one!
It's actually a TT cap but like some of the vag stuff there is a crossover!
-
That's looking very nice and your strut brace was a bargain! :-)
-
That's some nice work there Haakon- you've been busy!! I see you've got plenty to still keep you busy too! Good luck with rest of build!
-
Please say this will be at edition!
Sadly Ben, as Treblet mentioned, I won't be @ Edition this year- gutted!
I'm aiming to do Players and Westside in September then Oktoberfest, in err ... October!!! :-)

Yeh I am fed up of seeing those Golfs, there are more and more every South West show, all the same dark green colour, all Mk3's. All nothing new, big whoop its clean and you drive it once a month.
Only seen one Lupo in a show and that was last Jambo, a guy with a yellow Sport. None before or since. There was a GTi Loop at Dubs at the Beach 2010 which I missed too. That also sucked lol!.
Hope you got plenty of attention to it as fellow Loop owner and anyone on here can see how much work you have done, and to a Golf owner, its just another "Polo"... Glad you got recognition!
Thanks! I must admit I was very pleased beating some of the 'bigger' cars- felt a bit of an underdog with the wee Lupo and it was great to get some recognition. Saw quite a few people trying to work out what it was by bringing down the boot lid and looking on it but there's only the central VW badge left on!!
Will be doing Oktoberfest in cheddar in October if you want a little roadtrip?!
Players!
