  1. Lets say it will cost £1500 to get sorted,have a test drive in the car you want next I'm guessing it won't be half as much fun,and how long before you loose £1500 on that car.As for a price to sell now if seen same mileage as yours no dints at £2250 take over two months to sell not sure what they got.

    No news on the Lupo - weather, lack of time and motivation have been stopping me from fixing the sill

    The daily:

    I was on the main road behind - the other car got waved out from this side road by someone being helpful but had not checked the filter lane I was in.. so not my fault

    Both airbags deployed, I was on the horn with both hands, airbag made my right hand punch the screen and sprained my left wrist. The Golf still drove, the A5 that hit me was dead and had to be pushed.

    Pay out was surprisingly generous and quick, crash on Thursday evening, money in account Tuesday, so I upgraded to this:

    Mk5 Gti 2.0 DSG - 86k miles, fully stamped up service book, with the DSG box serviced 5k miles ago. Really high spec, even has a sunroof that apparently is rare 

    Unfortunately it wasn't being used often enough, I am having some binding brake issues. Sadly the 18" monza's are reps. It has a 3" cat back stainless exhaust that is non-resonated - the pops & crackles are nice, especially with the GSG box, but its too noisy, it just drones on the motorway, so its booked in to get it changed to resonated. Only cosmetic issue is a crusty hatch - I picked up a really good replacement in the same Graphite blue - the colour is lovely...however in the rain it is the same colour as wet tarmac!

     

    That's a nice upgrade,my mate had one manual.He now drives evoques brand new swaps every three years,still says the golf was the best car he has had!

    Yeah I admit it....bit of detailing going on. It's sitting on a set of grey and polished 15 inch Borbet a's and I have a new set of Stance plus ultra coilovers to go in over the next few weeks.

    That's a funky car!

    What a car this was! 

    Can't get in to my old account and can't remember the cluplupo password to the email address password to reset it. 

    Anyway I'd like a red lupo gti if anyone is thinking of selling.

    Welcome back! There is one for sale at carandclassic might just be the one for you.

  5. Twice a the same laser blue with about 70k came up for sale I was prepared to go to 5.5k at this point I had not owned a gti but it wasn't enough.For me your car ticks all the boxes bar a sunroof.I once read a guy driving around the busy streets of London got more attention in his blue gti than any 100k sports car.So I'm going to say 6.5k but as long as you can afford it and you enjoy it that's the main thing now,and if you were to sell any time in the future I dare say you will get all your money back.
