  1. Very happy to tell you that my car has been SOLD. It is planned to be for a son's 17th Birthday. It's life will continue! It is now in Newport but I will see it around because the lad's father works in my town. The family have had many vw vehicles so they knew of the Lupo and by chance one of the family looked up ClubLupo. They tracked me down as I was on their doorstep so to speak. I wasn't glad to see it go but very happy that it has found a deserving new home! Thankyou to all of you, in ClubLupo, who bothered to post me advice over the last week, it was much appreciated.
  2. Fancy that! Thanks for your earlier advice mk2. (on Monday). Managed to take and post some photographs once the rains stopped.
  3. Photos postend today . Looks like the back tyre is flat. Not so though; it's water!
  4. Laura. I'm going to try to put photos today. I'm not in any rush to sell. It will be to who ever agrees to the price of £600. Most recent costly replacements: Tming belt ( cam belt) Battery (deisel power) Clutch Pedal box and November 2020 service.
  5. One already knows the expected over 20 years. (Timing belt, battery, tracking, tyres etc.) Then there are the fair wear and tare through its life (not in order, just from memory). Done over 20 years of its life: Alternator, front springs, bushes, front break pipes, gearbox mount, parts of the exaust, front wheel bearings, pedal box, welding needed to passenger sill, new window regulators I think which was last year. (new clutch fitted but the issue turned out to be a split in the pedal box, not the clutch! Got a refund on the clutch though). Unlucky events: !! Lost key, boot lock stuck, wipers refusing to turn off! Not bad over 20 years. My impression is that VW parts last. Never the same work twice in its life. I've always felt confinfident enough not to hold breakdown cover) I learned how to get 70 miles to the gallon by changing my driving habits, which is more miles than when it stated llife. It goes from oil change to oilchange without needing a check. This is after 171,000 miles! Low tax class and low insurance too.
  6. Many thanks for your sound advice. Your instructions were good to follow. Email deleted. Tomorrow I will try adding photographs, again with your instructions.
  7. This is Helen. How do I read a reply that has come through? I don't know how

    I've had my lupo from new. serviced and MOT always with VW South Hereford garages. Y261JVJ 2001 sdi green. Immobiliser/ central locking Annual tax £30 MOT till 31st Jan 2021. All invoice history with car. 171k. In the last 18 months: new cam belt, clutch, battery, pedal box I've looked after it. I've loved it. I'm in my mid 70's. Sad to see it go. £600.00 Could there be someone who would love it like I have? Accept that I will cry when it leaves me. It's been my joy. Happy to send photos but will have to learn how to do it. I'm not good with I.T.
  9. Are you still looking for lupo roof bars?
