How was this done Mike if you don't mind me asking? Would it be possible with leather recaros or is that a whole different ball game? Cheers

IS it at all possible to get the boot to open using the 3rd button if I wanted to smooth and remove the boot handle?

How did you source these seats? Direct from VW? also if you don't mind me asking how much did they set you back mate?

Yeah he does. I work there in the summer too which is pretty sick. Do you book your loop into there? Could very well have done. Although any Skoda looking for a play in Watford makes me think Undercover police!

Mileage? Location and how much my way? Maybe interested. But really fancy a candy white loop if anyone fancies it? Long shot I know. Yeah some people are different and I know it won't be as fast and I will compare it. But at least I can style it to my taste. I would be more adventurous on a cheaper car I reckon

It sounded like a great idea. I will let you know but the colour doesn't do it for me tbh.

Nope not me mine is silver. Haven't put it up yet might even be able to sell it on the forecourt if i'm lucky. I'm thinking a cheap lupo but white with nice touches until after uni. If i sell the gti I will be out of debt but then once I get a new job money will be knocking about again. Can you get a 1.0 in white?

Maybe now is the time to add my Dad works for VW so can get me polo/lupo/golf trade ins cheapish. Plus servicing etc covered so needs to be VAG

Agreed. I can buy another one in the future and thats what I keep thinking.

Don't think I have thought long and hard. And its not definate i'm just looking for advice. The insurance for an 18yo is madness. If there is any chance of keeping it I will.

Basically last year I worked hard to get a lupo gti at the age of 18. But now im in my last year at college before going to Uni in september and just lost my very well paid part time job. I Still owe money on the insurance and have just finished paying the car off so it's not looking too good as to keeping it. But I was thinking of getting a standard loop as a runaround for a lot cheaper until after uni. Is there any easy, cheap and subtle ways to make it look a bit sportier and even aggressive like the Gti? Standard ones have always looked slightly girly to me. No offence to anyone Any advice would be appreciated. Cheers... Oh and if anyone is interested in my plate - GT51 DUB let me know. Tom

Cheers mate I was looking at the FK's just wondered on the ride. Hard is good as long as it isn't uncomfortable so sounds perfect.

Really simple anyone who has slammed their GTI could you please tell me: which coillies your using, How much they were, What the ride is like, and provide a picture and possibly even a link Many Thanks.

The standard wheels refurbed in white look awesome!

If we could get enough seriously interested people then we will get what we want Sport and Gti owners...It's up to us.

Emailed Milltek the other day. 'Will Milltek be producing a system for the Lupo Gti anytime soon? Any news and info would be much appreciated guys. I want to wait for a Milltek system rather than go elsewhere. Thanks, Tom' And got this reply back: 'Hi Tom Many thanks for your interest in Milltek Sport products. We do not have any plans in the near future for developing a system for the Lupo GTI, but this may well change, depending on the level of demand we receive. Louise Millington, Milltek Sport' Lets show them our interest?

Looking at putting MK4 Recaros into my loop. I do not have the winter pack option atm and just cloth. But is it possible to set up the heated leather to work? Cheers. Tom

This seems to be a common come back. But no one explains why?

My main worry is the collapsable plate/spike set up at college. Which I will have to deal with every day. The devil designed it.

I don't know a huge lot about air ride. But am considering it as my area is littered with speed bumps. My college car park also has a great deal of DUB hating equipment. I want to be as low as possible but also be practical. Obviously there is a large difference in price. But what other plus's are there in the AIR v COILIE debate. Like ride/handling etc. Cheers.

Use it to get high but not in your car.

Nope keeping all the parts so it would be able to go back to standard when necessary sorry.

Basically I have a Lupo Gti and really fancy a golf Gti ed30 steering wheel. Having spoken to parts at my local dealership they say it would not fit but obviously I expected that. But does anyone know if it would be possible to alter it in order to fit? I really don't know much on the matter so looking for some advice. Thanks

Anyone who has had this done for their Lupo what sort of price would I be looking at for leather?

I saw your car in PVW this month. Looked absolutely spot on. The seats look amazing. How much did they set you back altogether if you don't mind me asking? One of the nicest Lupo Gti's I have ever seen.
