  1. Yes. In the future maybe I'll have a GTi too 🀩 @Skajme
  2. Oh yes!saw that you sell the engine of it 😁😁😁
  3. @Rich If you say so πŸ˜‚
  4. Took some pictures with my fresh washed Lupo my girlfriend's red New Beetle transformed in Rudolf. Also added some pictures with the TDi at a lake nearby back in August.
  5. TDi already had better parts.... and even the 13" Alloys I've had did not fit on TDi because of the bigger front brakes...but that is no problem because I've got now some badass mint ATS CUPs:)) To be fair, I've took the oem mudflaps from the 1.0 and installed them on the TDi because in Romania they are verry hard to find. I've search all the scrap yards and online advertisments almost for 1 year untill I've found this set, which still doesn't have the VW logos....took them of a Cambridge Edition from UK that yas crashed and imported to Romania. The sad part was that the car was damaged on the back side and the SPECIAL Tinted taillights were smashed... I am still looking for some for having the full Cambridge package on my TDi along with the steering and gear knob which I already have.
  6. No problem @Blue Loop. I think they make the car look wider and more stable. 😁 Found some pictures with both of them and the Green Mk4, about I've told you, back when we bought the 1.4 TDi and uploaded some pics with the 1.0, that we sold, aswell. The 1.0 was with black door plastic strips and yellow, black mirrors and grey interior when the 1.4TDi has them painted and the interior is more like yellow and dark grey/black,and it has a glovebox aswell.
  7. Please delete, just a phone error. Don't want double post
  8. Hi! Good luck in your engine swap! I'm from Romania too 😁
  9. Hello! In the rows below I will tell you how I felt in love with smallest Volkswagen car- The Lupo. Back in 2014, when I was 16, my dad bought a Lupo, a cheap little car, with a 2001 YELLOW 1.0 MPi engine for driving around town. ItπŸ˜‚ was a easy to work on and quite reliable car. When I've got my driving licence, two years later, at 18, I've started my driving experience behind the wheel of this small city car...and what an experience . For me, a "car guy" it was really easy to drive also, but for some of my friends that learned to drive only diesels that start to move only by depressing the cluch, this small engine needed also a bit of throtle, and they used to stole it for the first times . For driving around town it remains the best choice, but, since we are living in a area full of hills, driving it outside city coud show you that the car can be a bit sluggish. After half a year or so, the 1.0 was listed on the selling market and I was looking it's replacement. In the evening before Easter, I found another YELLOW Lupo, this time a 2002 1.4 TDi, in better shape and being better equipped (powered windows and mirrors, butterfly rear windows, nicer colour scheme interior, cambridge leather steering wheel and shifter knob, A/C, heated windscreen wipers and projectors :D). The next day we bought it and came back home in two YELLOW "bugs". Everyone who saw us on the road was looking really funny to me and my dad :)) We had them for around 6 mounths, and took them out together almost everyday. After the 1.0 was sold the 1.4TDi remained with our 2002 Mk4 ALH-TDI that we own since 2007. My dad added to his garage this summer a 2011 Skoda Yeti 4x4 TDi Experience for long journeys. Driving all of these cars, I can say everyone is different in it's own way and think the 1.4TDI suits me the best. It feels quite nippy, compared to our Golf ALH 90HP and even the monster Yeti (Think the last owner remapped it, not verry sure but fells faster compared to other 1.4tdis I drove) and verry easy to park. TDI is registered as BT(my county) 13-my birth day WOB-obviously City of Volkswagen-Wolfsburg The 1.0 was random BT 05 ROU-could be From Romania. Apart from service intervals I haven't touch the car with any modificaton. (oh, forgot that I tinted the windows :)) ). Until today, when Santa came a bit lately, with a fresh set of ATS CUPs 15x7J ET28 wrapped with 195/45 R15 Hankook summer tires. I've added pictures below with the car and wheels. I will search old photos with the much loved 1.0 that was sold back in February this year.
  10. Maybe centre lock cap like on GP Porsches πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

    My new car

    It looks verry good! For the clock....you have two small buttons near the clock indicator (they are blending with the other screws in the cluster design). Push the left one to change the hour and right one for the minutes. You also have another button under the mileage counter display for reseting the trip mile. Wish you a Merry Christmas and no problems at all with your "poket rocket" :D! Have a good one!
  12. Hi, Clayton! I really love your build! I think your GTI is my favourite one atm. I like how you transformed the car since 2013. I have started with a 1.0 yellow Lupo, now having a yellow TDI with remap ( around 100hp). I follow you on insta and YT. I want to see more activity on YT with your angry little Lupo Cheers from ROmania! Have a good one!
  13. Hi! I am back. I want to ask you something. Could you send me some pictures with the factory originals stereo sockets?(mine is Alpha) (Brown one and black one).I want to see how the cables are fitted. Thanks!
  14. Hi! Just wondering if a pair of Golf Mk3 front speakers will fit on my Loop. Thanks in advance!
  15. Hi! I wanna change my oil pump on my 1.0e and I found one, made by Topran and I don't know how good is this manufacturer. If someone installed one of these pumps, please tell me. Thanks in advance!
  16. I have mines off the car and I don't know how to start separate them.
  17. They are fixed with glue, or they have any screws?
  18. Hi! Did someone opened the rear lights of a Lupo? I just wanna make them look like the cambridge edition ones, but I don't wanna ruin them. Thanks in advance!
  19. Nice Lupo mate! You can name it Lupolf (Rudolf)
  20. Nice mate! I bought the engine and I am planning to change it soon. My 1.0 MPi has been damaged because the oil pump failed. It is hard to change it at home? I have some experience but...I think maybe I will not be able to done it. Should I go to an service?
  21. Hi! I want to mount a oil pressure gauge on my 1.0 MPi. Does anyone have one of theese on his car? I need some informations and an advice about that T piece that should fit in the engine block for adding the standard oil pressure sensor ( the light on the clock) and the new one (with gauge) Thanks in advance!
  22. Thanks. I will buy one from ebay next mounth. Cheers!
  23. thanks! I still wait for other oppinions
