Description including modifications:
No known modifications. This Lupo was bought by my dad in 2019 as a spare because his own car (a peugeot) was giving him some trouble.
He did a full service on the Lupo, including changing the gearbox oil (which turned into this fiasco: https://uk-polos.net/viewtopic.php?t=73364)
Since 2019, this Lupo has been parked on the front of his house, with boot being used to store bags of coal. 🤣
Despite not being driven since 2019, and us just having endured full week of sub-zero temperatures, I was astonished that the Lupo still started at the first turn of the key. The battery has been left disconnected as a precaution. In typical British style, just as I went to take some photos today, the heavens opened and we get the first liquid rain in over a week.
MOT has now long expired, but it still drives ok. It has stood for a long time, so would strongly advise giving it a thorough check-over.
As can be seen from the photos, most of the body panels have some form of knock or scuff. Interior is ok, but could do with a bit of a clean and polish.
The scrap value of the vehicle is about 350 quid. My dad originally wanted a lot more than this, but realistically the lack of MOT, general condition and fact that it's been standing for such a long time devalues it somewhat. I'm sure he would be happy to let it go for 500 quid.
We would rather have this go to a Lupo lover than be sold for scrap, hence posting here.
If you're interested, please get in touch, and i'll forward you his number.
