Ooo what are you buying? So I've been getting a few things sorted on the car the past week. Autoglass came to fix the chip on the windscreen on Tuesday so that's one thing ticked off the list Got my plate transferred. Boxes arrived! Window regulator, should be able to get this fitted next week. And I got a stubby mirror off German eBay, just needs painting then it'll get fitted. Really happy with things so far. Need to wait until pay day before getting anymore bits though.

Ah I see, yeah that's the next street up from me, small world indeed! Mushy is a major vw fanatic in the other street with mk2s and mk4s on his drive. Lupo related news. I'm an idiot and didn't take my new owners supplement so can't transfer my plate today

Username of mushy by any chance? And irn bru is awesome people!

Sounds about right to me

It actually gets worse cos I live next door to Colin's dad and I bought the silver loop from a guy who lives 5 mins from Colin.....it's a small world obviously It's great to be back in a gti, got a lot of learning to do about the lupo though

Hello! A few people have said that but I didn't actually buy it from him lol Mike has bought the previous lupo from me (which was previously Mitchs and requires some work) and I got this from a guy in aberdeen. Mikes brother Paul bought my friend Colin's raven blue lupo with red interior a while back too so a few ties going on there!

I've got a Sony head unit so not sure it that makes a difference to what would work well? I may invest in a sub and amp in a few months time but it's not a priority. Small update though: I've sourced a window regulator through here so that should be arriving soon. Got a set of tyres for the rears as they were an advisory on the mot so they will be going on shortly. I've just bought a stubby mirror from German eBay...might just get the bases painted gloss black whilst I'm at it! Car will be getting a good detail inside and out on Monday as I have a day off so going to double team it with a mate. There's also a small chip on the windscreen so auto glass have been arranged to come out and sort that whilst I'm off too. Just small things but it all makes a difference

Thanks mate looking forward to seeing what you do with yours!

I hope this works, I'm on my phone! http://forums.clublupo.co.uk/index.php?/topic/95736-sarahs-silver-lupo-gti/#entry1109854

Awesome! I picked up a moon silver on sunday too and my number plate also starts OY02 if you want to see what the anthracite wheels look like mine already has it, it's a great combo in my opinion

That's uncanny! I love it!

Yeah I will try get a video of it soon for you mate it sounds pretty nice to be honest, not really loud but you deffo know something is going out there. I hope so, needs a good blast as there's a bit of gunge under the oil cap which might indicate lots of short journeys, no nasty symptoms so hopefully that's all it is! Could do with some areas resprayed but that's just me being really fussy with it. I'm not really up on what makes do what for the lupo but the ride is really good, it's not bumpy or stiff or anything and it still handles really well so they won't be getting changed. One thing I really would like to get done though is a G60 brake upgrade

Here's a few quick pics of my lupo gti that I bought today. It's got pretty good miles at 77k and the wheels were refurbed in anthracite by the previous owner about 6 months ago. It's sitting on eibach coils and has CDA induction and a powerflow exhaust. The splitter is from a cupra R and there's a momo wheel inside, looks like a 28, got a decent Sony head unit but the speakers need upgrading so any suggestions would be welcome on that front I've got a private plate to transfer on to it and it could be doing with a stubby mirror for the drivers side. The window regulator is gone so that's first on the list to get done but it's pretty much a blank canvas!

Hi my names Sarah I'm new here but not new to VWs, have had a polo and then a mk5 gti that did the rounds at shows a couple of years ago. Just picked up my 02 plate lupo gti this afternoon, it was an itch that needed scratching after having a go in a friends one a while back. Will get a post up with some pics soon and will no doubt be looking to pick up a couple of bits and pieces for it soon!
