Went out the other day and washed it again... and took more pics... Just coz i can, was trying to see if i could get some of the plastic trim (?) and stuff off so i could spray it blue or somthing, but i couldn't work it out...
With my other set of Wheels (Specialized Myka Sport Disc)
Took the plastic bits off the top (and put them back on again)
Lights out
Both Lights out...Looked pretty cool ( sorry bout the shadows, forgot to move it before i took pics)
after this i proceeded to lock my little brother in the boot (he was being annoying)
A better shot of my 'modification'
Some other wee shots when i was mucking around with the focus (ignore the rubbish lying around)
So yeah not actually doing much to the car atm (am skint, to say the least) but its still drivable and thats all that matters right?
-
Haha, Koop dropped yourself in it!
Cute Blue Loop, I like it
Thanks.... I think?
-
Sheeeeee-it they musta bin real ugly homes.
HomE... only one of them actually and i can't say anything about them because they're related to me....
But yeah they just used it as a run about car... from the house to the station and back... so yeah its not that for me...
-
So i was bored today and Loopy badly needed a wash (loads of birds have been trying to buy it, well at least putting deposits down
So yeah anyways i gave him a good wash today... 2 buckets later he's still filthy... Dad please hurry up and get the outside tap fixed so i can power wash!
But yeah here's some pics i took today...
Engine all nice and clean(ish)
Roof Strips Off
All systems go
Sparly Clean
I saw someone on here doing something similar to this don't know who it was but copyright as such goes to them....
I decided to do something similar but add my own style to it
Before:
After:
Also need to find new visors as the previous owner did this to each of them

There is another light blue Lupo kicking about here then! I'm driving a silver 6n2 now. If you see us, flash me. Where about is it you are? Is of Falkirk?
I think i've seen you a few times... never in my own car tho so couldn't flash you. Braes area of Falkirk... If you know where that is...
-
I have that same problem... My dad thinks its an electrical fault... It only happens every couple of months wi us tho so u should be fine for a while!
Let me know if u find out what the prob is tho!
-
Get the codes read as a first port of call
Thanks for the advice.
I have VagCom so if you need a scan done give us a shout.
Cool, my friend actually has one too (just found out yesterday) so i might be getting it checked there but thanks for the offer...

So i drove to lunch today, parked, went away came back, and tried to drive off again, and i managed it, but it felt like i was driving in 4th instead of 1st... (was in a car park at 10mph) so i thought it was weird, and i checked my handbrake too, so i stopped, got out checked all my tyres and any obvious signs of damage nothing...
SO i managed to drive back to college and it was fine except the engine management light came on... and stayed on... and htere was a weird smell at one point but that might not be related.
Anyways, i came out about 2 hours later, to drive home and the light was off.... and it was fine...
It did this to my dad before but we're not very sure what it is, he thinks its electrical and next time it happens its going in for a service, but i was wondering if this has happend to any of you, or somthing similar...
Thanks!

If there is clearly a cut wire, re join it, it that doesn't work or you see no wires to rejoin, swap the yellow and red power wires going to the stereo
Oh... Ok this sounds kinda technical... I'll ask my dad... :L Don't wanna go poaking about and make it worse you know... But Thanks for that!
-
I see you enjoy mcdonalds! Seen you twice at mcdonalds the past few days haha. Was behind you tonight in my 6n2 Polo
.That wasn't me.... Unless somebody nicked my car and took it for a joy ride... Tho there is another light blue lupo kicking about the place i think... But yeah that wasn't me... haven't been to McD's in weeks...
-
So i got a new CD player for the Lup yesterday, its a Sony, will put pics up later (haven't actually taken any yet) Tho it turns out the guy who had the car before me cut a wire when he was installing the cd player the first time (10 years ago) which is why it don't store like radio stations or CD tracks... u have to find them all again when ever u start the car up... anyone know how to fix this? Coz its actual annoying!
-
Wow, this car is like awesome... i wish i wasn't so skint so i cud do some stuff to mines...
Gotta admit i have the lup in blue...but the jazz blue not laser blue... Laser Blue looks so much better!
Keep up the awesome work!

Passed My Driving Test First Time on Friday.
So you'll see me about more now!
-
Its really neat, have you booked your test yet? Hope you've done your theory because theyve made it much harder now as well.
Yeah passed my Theory in October so just the final hurdle now...
Have a look round the member's cars there's plenty of subtle mods you can do & keep an OEM look
Or you can always just concentrate on cleaning & polishing & restore him to his former glory 
Thanks! I'll have a look!
Nice luelo
And good luck with your test!!!
Joe
Thanks!

Put Parents or other driving adults of several years experience on...(don't have to be named driver) and just do 3rd party fire and theft (unless u want all the rest) or do a multi-car thingy... thats what i did anyways... hope u get something!

So I've had my car since September... I'm still a learner but should be passed soon....
Anyways I've been on here for a few months now and think it's about time i put some pics of my car up...
It's a wee Jazz Blue Lupo 1.4 Petrol, 02 plate... so not yet 10 years old yet. One owner since new which wa my aunt so its a hand me down and a better first car than i ever thought i'd have...
I call it Loopy or the Slug (number plate anagram) and also Lewis Hamilton because my friends was called the Shoe... aka Sheumacker so yeah call me weird... but oh yeah pics!!!
I've blanked out the plate... just coz i can... this is it the day i got it...
Milage when i got it... well after the first drive
My uncle had ordered new visors coz the mirrors in the ones i've got are smashed, unfortunately they don't fit lupo's... they're the wrong code... :/
They sumhow managed to lose the jack... so my dad bought me another one.... and i got a free tow with it... now i have 3!! i only need one right?
With the mandatory 'L' plate stuck on (this is an edit)
My Pride and Joy... (also an edit)
In the Snow...
Trying to tell me that he reallly wants to go out in the snow pleeeease....
My Dad... borrowed my car to go get a new tyre for his car...He muckied up my boot!!! and all the plastic trim! Nae happy!
Dad with his head in the bonnet... just brought it bck after taking it to get the gears looked at (they're stiff again) then the EMC light and the catalyst lights came on... its now away to the Gearbox specialists for them to look at it... won't get it bck for like a week tho... :/
Anyways... here's some pics...
I don't think i'll be doing much to it tbh... i have a tight budget and i doubt my parents would approve... :/
