2005 VW Lupo 1.0L
MOT Sept 2021, 117k
I bought this car a few weeks back as it drove really nice and had been well looked after by the previous owner and in a rare colour.
As I was driving home on the motorway, 5th gear stopped working and became unable to select.
So, the car needs a new gearbox.
You could probably drive the car to where you are going in 4th gear as that's what I did to get home but gear selection is now a bit stiff.
Included in the sale is a replacement gearbox and a new clutch friction plate, pressure plate and release bearing.
Bargain for someone who can replace the gearbox themselves.
The car is for sale at £325
Based in North Manchester.
Any questions please call 07799 728 730.
Only advertised here at the moment, it will go on Ebay in a few days if nobody here is interested.
Cheers

Now sold.

PM Sent. Cheers.

Call it £45 and we got a deal. 😁😁
-
Good idea, strip of wood will also be supplied in with the packaging 😁
-
The undertray is tough.
If you dropped the box you wouldn't damage it.
It's designed to protect the engine from the road so i'm confident it would arrive to you without getting damaged.
I'll pack the box with some packaging.
Cheers.

It does feel like some kind of flexible type hard plastic / fibreglass construction now i've looked at it.
-
The most ridiculous looking parcel!
Managed to kind of merge two boxes together.
Parcel2go/Hermes have quoted £24 to post this.
Weight is 4.5kg.
Cheers

It's not metal, its a sort of fibreglass construction, not massively heavy but an awkward size to post
Definitely an awkward size!

Looks like metal to me. I'll get you a price for posting. What is the postcode it would be going to?

Thanks for spotting this. 🤦♂️ This is my car. I've amended the advert. Just checked and the paint code is LA5W which is Ravenna Blue. The photos have not been photoshopped. That is how the car looks.
The badge on the front had a red faded 'i' which was more pink than red so I picked the red sticker off which I felt looked better.
Cheers.

The shine on your paintwork is unbelievable! Very very impressed!

thanks Koop, just joined it.

thanks guys.

Just got up to date on this project. I love the way you just decide to alter the shape of things and next thing you know you have a fully fabricated and trimmed piece that fits perfectly and looks fantastic. I dread to think of what I would end up with if I decided to make a new dash! Anyway, well done, look forward to seeing more of your work.

After lurking in the background for several months I thought i'd say hello.
I'm on my 7th Lupo now, three of them have been GTi's.
Remind me of my old 205 GTi which drove very similar. Love the 6 speed box, simply brilliant.
In the process of refurbing a couple of sets of BBS RS764's which make the lowered Lupo look incredible.
I'll post some pics when they are back from the painters and polishers. They are being painted Volcano Grey
with poilished lips. Should look amazing.

Thanks Wes, haven't checked the oil level, may do that tomorrow. I've already bought the replacement gearbox. Really appreciate your offer though.
