Offering to only the owners club as i'd like this vehicle to a fellow enthusiast, not advertised anywhere else. Not easy making a ad for a vehicle you've had almost 10years. I'll be honest and upfront about the car, its history and all work thats been done. Because of the colour i'd love the vehicle to remain running, unfortunately in my opinion with the bodywork suffering i can't do that. The reason for the sale is so someone could take it away and make it new again rather than me hanging on and the condition deteriorating more. That been said i'm in no rush to sell and will only entertain serious buyers on a reasonable price. 2002 Anthracite grey Lupo GTi (Registered 16/12/2002) 1/34 when new, Possibly less than 10 now? 103900miles - to be updated but its not far off been correct Full VW service history -2 independent stamps, 3 service books in total Stacks of receipts for parts, service and mot invoices UK supplied car 3 Owners V5 present MOT due 21/04/2026 Owned since 2016 2 keys Currently on private plate (not included) Original Reg LS52JVN Daily driven for 2 years then went on to mainly used on weekends and was garage dry stored for 3 winters Sprogley motorsport induction kit with catch can (original airbox and engine cover supplied) Custom exhaust from (keltec leeds) Still retains 2 silencers and twin exit pipes, not much louder than the factory system (factory exhaust included but very scabby condition) H&R lowering springs 30mm (standard shocks) Whiteline rear anti roll bar (middle setting) 20MM rear wheel spacers Rear wiper delete (wiper and motor included) UP GTi gear knob and red stiching gaitor (original included maybe have a spare aswell - to confirm) VW/SEAT Genuine Roof bars Pioneer single din bluetooth stereo Pioneer speakers and tweeters front and rear Working cupholders Chrome heater controls (originals included) Uniroyal rainsport 5 front tyres , Rainsport 3 on the back (treads to update) Most factory parts i have lying around (i will check everything to make sure i'm legit with the sale) Various spare parts (2 red front door cards, door card clips, poss more to follow) All calipers rebuilt, painted red by myself with new pistons and seals Lower arm bushes replaced Gearbox split and resealed New drivers window switch 02/2026 Boot release handle replaced and painted with new gasket Radiator replaced 2025 Factory Bathurst wheels refurbed with all centre caps present (4 spares included) Cambridge rear lamps Rear screen replaced (genuine screen) Osram nightbreaker laser headlamp bulbs Phillips high beam bulbs to match xenon colour LED side lamp bulbs LED number plate bulbs LED interior light bulb LED reverse light bulbs Working high level brake light Majority of parts i've purchased have been genuine and fit by myself.

Some not obvious but a keen eye will see Rear sills are bubbling near the arches, Rear tailgate below the glass the paint is bubbling, Rust around the boot release handle Aluminium corrosion on drivers wing and drivers door (only slight) Small chip in windscreen (been repaired) Photos to follow once weather improves and i can clean it Theres a lot of information and i also have a lot of stuff, so i will update if possible with dates or all replaced parts when i get the invoices out I will also check and confirm all spare and factory parts Bank transfer on collection with a written receipt £7500 for ad purposes, It hard to put a price on something like this but as mentioned serious buyer will negotiate a serious price

Game changer for the Lupo, Made something not very practical into something a little more usuable 😄 I've got some genuine ones which go on with ease I've had mountain bikes on mine on occasion and a Roof top tent more than anything. No damaged caused to the car and never had them come loose. Tightened to 6NM I've PPF'd where the rubber feet and brackets sit just to protect to paintwork for marks and scratches Theres some marks in the rear glass for the roof bar brackets, just sit the bracket between them marks and tighten down

Quick google brings up some listings on autodoc. Might be what you need That number might have superseeded to something else now also @lupogtiboy might be able to confirm if the number has changed.

Good luck with the sale I've been watching this all week to gauge an idea of what mine might be worth How is the experience of selling on collecting cars? As it may be where i list mine

I run 195/45 uniroyal rainsports on my GTi Id recommend anything over Toyos. Terrible tyre my gti had on when i bought it. Think 195/50 scrub on full lock

I'lll take any you have. Price and location? I'm a roof bar collector.

Does it have JVC unit have DAB? If it does.. Just an idea to swap it out for a dummy shark fin that come on the MK6 golf or scirocco?

Fair enough. Do you still use the factory head unit?

Why do you need to replace it?

6X2 837 014 C drivers side i managed to get from my dealer as VW UK still had some stock. Passenger side number i have is 6X2 837 013 N. That one I'm unable to source

I'll check with my guys tomorrow see if i can get one. Any idea of a alternative for the passenger side?

Now on ebay with photos and a bigger description only listing on here because the 1.4tdi is sought after https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/134438291484

Are you offering me one? Don't think i want another anthracite gti 😄

I've kept all my original parts also regardless of condition because if the car goes the parts can remain with it. Technology moves quickly which should keep some odd parts available like you said if someone is already 3d printing washer jet covers how long before someone starts making 3rd brake lights? I understand you. A number of times over the past few months I've looked at parting ways with mine, however I cant find a worthy replacement and I'm too attached to mine to let it go regardless of what it may need in terms of repair.

Its all a matter of opinion. Yes, parts are now increasing more difficult to source but a good aftermarket option or an improvement on the original wouldn't put me off. A full stainless exhaust which may have slightly different tips doesn't mean its going to be any louder. Its 2023 the factory head unit and speakers are not great. So what's the harm in an upgrade? If you want a completely standard car you ain't going to be using it. When it does need parts you cant source it will become neglected. Personally its all about future proofing these cars to keep them going and it that means making better than original I'm all for that!
