    turbo'ing my lupo

    No IP match (I'd already checked) - if you can prove it I'll ban them both (one permanently).

    downforce

    Are you trying to be funny? It's not working that well. If you're serious, then no, a spoiler won't help you in a 1.0. If your back end is so light that you find it overtaking the front, stick a manhole cover in the boot. Problem solved. Just make sure you (don't) crash. Take a trip here, they may be able to 'help' you.
  3. Early 3L Lupos had magnesium alloy bootlids, never aluminium. They changed to steel later on. The GTI has only ever had a steel bootlid.
  4. Funnily enough, I think Barry (RallyeBaz) saw it the other day - it's still alive, and still has the VR http://forums.clublupo.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=65204
  5. Around 2000 - I believe when the GTI hit production. Other changes were made at the same time, e.g. aerial moved forward.
  6. Ok, well basically like it or lump it. I've personally had enough of this topic - moderators do their job for free. Sometimes decisions need to be made quickly to prevent situations getting out of hand. Nock may have been in the wrong place at the wrong time, I don't know - but I'm sure that he wasn't a completely innocent bystander. If somebody does something offensive, then use the *report button* don't go flinging offensive comments back or you're stringing yourself up. Stop holding moderators to account for such pathetic reasons, the majority are happy - and as the old adage goes, you can't please all the people all the time.
  7. Filled it to the very top, and drove very carefully! It was boring, and hard work.
  8. Not a problem in the slightest in a modern car with a plastic tank.
  9. Did you report him at the time? Did anybody?
  10. Pretty sure nobody can see their own warn status, our secret's out.
  11. I heard it on a torrent of Top Gear music used in the series a while back - knew I'd heard it somewhere before... very catchy. Now some chill: Youtube Video ->Original Video ">" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350">
  12. Not rules, just etiquette. I've moved it to Events as that suits the topic. Lupo and Arosa forums are really for specific threads about the different models of car.
  13. Merged. Please stick to one thread per topic.
  14. Youtube Video -> Original Video As featured on the Honda ad
  15. Creating multiple accounts to avoid a ban imposed by mods is also against the terms... Please don't create another one or we'll have to ban your IP as well!
  16. It sounds like you have a fair bit to learn. 'Free Speech' is non existant in reality, even on the street. Extreme, offensive views are not free to air on this forum, and quite often are only posted to cause an argument. This is forum about Lupos, if people come here looking for information about Lupos and are offended by other content then that content will be removed. Good luck with your petition. (and permanent bans are very rarely given, it's likely Tom has just been given a short time off to reconsider his behaviour).
  17. Great to hear it's still around!
  18. I would add to this post, the caution: "Beware what you download from internetz".
  19. IE here, Outlook for mail. And I run an IT company
  20. Fairly sure you can't... although I'm curious - why on earth would you want to do this? Imagine, perhaps stalling in the middle of a storm...
