  1. I got the same reason for my pedal box not being replace for free (6years old & no FSH). As a Uni student im looking to get my £35 (Part) back and maybe the £60 Dio-Check for 30mins.

    im not letting VW get away with this because the same day i had to pay £35 for a travel card. Thats a full tank of petrol for me to become ill from all those people who like to caugh without their hands over their mouth.

    that e-mail address is going to get spammed and so is there headoffice letter box. At my part time job we have pre-paid 1st class recored stickers which will now come in handy if i can get some.

    im not backing down as im not spending any money for any garage to replace it. I'll do it myself but i want the money back for the part.

    I wonder what the german customer service is like?

  2. There are a lot more sport & GTI owners who are tunning their lupo's. so i have decided to go down that route with my 1.4 SE now :blush:

    so i guess im goning to be posting up a lot more topics lol

    Ok- im lookin into getting a manifold for my SE. a lot of sport owners are using the Raceland manifold

    i have also seen the Ashley Manifold on Europerfomance

    http://www.europerformance.co.uk/pages/pro...;sub_category=1

    Just need to know if:

    1. The Ashley will be an easier fit & which one is a better buy for performance :confused:

    2. Will a deCat Sytsem fail an MOT emissions test :coffee: (if so im guess a sports cat is in order :shades: )

  3. lol my stories R. i have seen a black, red, silver and (dark grey - (twice)) R8 around Palmers Green North london. i was TRYING to tail gate one but it was so quick doing 20 - 30mph for some reason.

    fact is there are a lot on the road near me that a vw r32 is more rare

  4. forget the copper S. the Copper S is such a great car after engin mods. without any mods

    1. its not a great engine

    2. everyone has them

    3. it's not the VW scene lol

    plus im sure there r better cars in that price range. wait for the Audi A1 lol

  5. don't know much but my about cars but my car makes the same sort of sound turning left & i need a new cv joint on the drivers side. so it's down to CV/wheel bearing or Track rod.

    what is it with lupo CV joints. it's seems every time someone checks under my car it needs a new 1. but it is lowered 40mm on standard suspension lol

    anyone know the cost for a new CV joint ?

    sorry if thats hijacking this post

  6. Just a little update as the progress on the car has been slow. taken the lupo off the road for a little while as im getting fed up of all these mod's coming in and they aint on the car yet.

    mods to do list

    Sempal delux electric windows

    DSC00055.jpg

    Alpine Type R Speakers

    DSC00052.jpg

    DSC00053.jpg

    also need to fit the remote central locking kit.

    i will get some picks up of the electric window install. If im in a gd mood i will write up a How to Guide, but only if people request it

    also need to spray my new calipers but thats just boring stuff.

    coilovers and new alloys are coming in 2008 :(

  7. Got my money to spend on the car now so you guys should be gettin some nice updates with pic soon. spent some money today on new calipers and some electric window buttons and housing.

    getting the remote central locking done first then im goin to fit the electric windows myself

    going to use this kit from Sempal

    Deluxe Kit

    im thinking matt black alloys with the calipers sprayed the cars colour.

    then maybe some light black tints just so the car fades in nicely with the alloys

    knowing me i'll change my mind 2morro

  8. Amazing the more i look at it i know why you got the silver one. that looks nice but im goin for the standard look around my car. my car already gets keyed at work i don't need people breaking in coz they see a silver JVC screen.

    But as i said Amazing :D

    might go do some research now lol

    Looking to get this one as i have money to burn lol

    JVC KW-AVX800

  9. Just go for the KW ones like me lol 40mm drop :coffee: it's all gd. i have a 195/45/15 tyre profile and only rub on the left hand side when there is someone in back going round bumpy corners :D
