Lupo GTI - 130 bhp/ton
Renault Clio 182 - 170 bhp/ton
Been in and driven both and (as the stats above suggest) the 182 is the quickest. No contest.
I prefer the looks , build and rarity of the Lupo but you can't really compare the two.
They are in different leagues. The Lupo is a cheap and cheerful 1.6 Supermini but the Clio is more of a driver's tool and in hot-hatch territory.
Depends on what you want though; the Clio comes at a higher price (insurance, maintenance, tax and so on!)

Really sorry, but having to pull my Audi RS6 and Ibiza Cupra out of this one.
I am in the process of renovating a new venue for my work and we are working to a tight schedule. I'd be missing a day's graft.
It's a shame, as I was looking forwards to the day.
Apologies for the late notice, but I hope to get them both down to either a meet or RR day soon.

If the other club members don't reply to me by Sunday then l'll fill the spaces up with yours.
Hope thats ok? I just want to give the original people who showed interest some time to confirm or not.
Cheers
Chris
No probs
Thanks, Chris.

Moono's brother here with the above mentioned Ibiza Cupra. I know space is tight and it ain't a Loop but if there is space, could I put my other car on aswell; Audi RS6.

Think it was you anyway.
It was on the little bend where you can turn off down the nook.
I didn't have time to let on. Saw you from the corner of my eye.
We were heading in different directions and I suspect you weren't hitting the bend at 29mph like me

Enjoying the car anyway!

twas me
saw you let on mate and let on back, glad you only saw the drivers side as the passenger side is a bit of a mess,
the s3 was lookin nice btw
Hi mate,
Well, what I did see of your car looked nice.
I used to have a 16V too and now my brother owns one.
I was just on my way back from placing a deposit on my new car... An Audi RS4.
The Focus is now gone so it's two Audis gracing the driveway!
-
Dash?
Yeah, of course it had a dash
Only joking!!!
I don't really come on here that much these days so it could be this Dash fella...

Spotted today at around 6pm (ish) on the M62 heading towards Manchester, just before the M60 turn-off.
The car had a single centre exhaust so I am presuming it was a 16V.
I did let on and you clearly saw me.
I was in the Silver Audi S3 by the way.
Anyone on here?

yup nice talkin to u aswell m8 the lights will be comin off this week and hopfully they guy shud of orderd the parts for the bumper.
oh and 1 quick question, were do u get the red strip that goes around the front grill? like on the new golf gti?
cheers
Hi mate,
I am sure Tom will correct me if I am wrong, but that is just some red insulation tape, available from places like B&Q etc. They do thinner strips of it too, and you just need a good eye and a steady hand!

Saw you again mate...hello to you
Your car looked spotless
Tom
Hi again mate!
Nice speaking to you. Get those Lexus lights off and the rear bumper scuffs off and you'll be laughing!

Evening David
The black one was 2001gti, duno what his real name is though, it definately had those Lexus style lights on when we saw it on Thursday night so must be him.
The red one...id be interested to find out who the female is
Tom
Yeah, it was a blonde piece wasn't it?! Get in there, Tom!
Have you seen that black Lupo, which could best be described as a horrid GTI "wannabe"? Someone got Halfords vouchers for Christmas!
-
Don't think Joe drives his any more. He said it's sitting on his parents drive.
isn't that where most GTIs sit?
Sorry, couldn't help myself!
-
its not Jen and Joe off here is it? Jens got a red GTi and Joe has a black 54 plate Gti which is forsale in the classifieds?
wayne
It could be mate. I dont really know many people on here. I used to come on years ago and it's tailed off since I sold my Lupo.

Spotted two Lupo GTIs last week, Thursday in Ashton Town Centre.
Firstly, a lad (on his Bill) in a black one drove past us. We also spotted a red one parked up, which later passed us with a bird in it.
I am sure the black one's owner is on here.
Any takers?
-
i think ive seen the red one in droysldon i used to see it everyday wen passin on the bus and i used to jus dream about it.
That will be the one, yes. He lives in Droylsden. I spoke to him a few weeks back in the petrol station actually. It's low mileage and because the owner works for VW, it is very well taken care of, very tidy (driver's seat aways has a cover on it). This bloke by the way had NEVER heard of clublupo. I did tell him about it, but I think he's a bit old to be into that kinda stuff. He's sat at home smoking his pipe right now, slippers on and watching UK Gold.
-
You aint the only one unfortunately mate. GTi_T has a stunning Loop (ok, not Ashton, but not far) and a silver one around the corner from him. I know of a couple more locally. There's a bloke in a red one near us, lovely car. I have, however, seen a cuple of horrible imitations around. Ther's a black Arosa and a black Lupo (probably a 1 litre or somet) modded in supposed GTI form. The black Loop even has a twin centre exhaust and declas - minging!
-
haha 'pure eds'
I see a blue focus RS around Marple quite abit with a geezer inside - I take it that's you?
Could be but when I am over Stockport way it's usually around Romiley. I live in Droylsden, so I'm mostly around Audenshaw, Ashton, Stalybridge and the like.
-
It would be a close call mate, but I do think your Lupo would pip me. The FRS handles like a barge!
Nice car anyway, mate. You did have "pure 'eds" in your car on saturday. Hope you enjoyed the kebab and I do hope you made them eat their kebabs out of the car and avoid getting it on the upholstery!
Take care.
How Much BHP in Your Household?
in Automotive Chat
Posted
I'd actually say you are slightly out there
RS6 - 500 bhp
Ibiza Cupra - 240bhp
Westfield - 240bhp
Total 980 bhp
Average = 327 bhp
Shame we sold our S3/Focus RS - we'd have hit the magical 1000 bhp mark for sure!
