Project Number 3 'Project 3L the TDi'
Little Green Giant replied to Little Green Giant's topic in Member's Cars
80% of the 3L is different to normal Lupos!!! 80%!!!!! i keep finding new bits that are different! on saturday i noticed that the seats mount differently! THEY CHANGED THE SEAT MOUNTS because they could save 0.3kg!!!??? hahahah! ITS GENIUS! -
no, side repeaters are in the wrong place

Since I now have a 3L that can be driven when i need to drive a car this project is going full retard! They were wrong when they said NEVER go full retard! so seat mounts got welded in. and Obviously seat fitted Harness bar is next, along with a lighter seat for the passenger side, minimal electrics, including no heating or stereo, and lot more weight reduction from the body. A fair amount of work needs doing on the sub frame and suspension set up. Rear brakes are all new, but fronts are still to be decided on. wheels will be staying, for now, but an upgrade in tyres is also on the cards. I do still have Oscar to deal with, so that will be taking most of my time and money, but its all fun and games and i'm in no rush to get either of them 'finished'. any progress is good progress i say! Oh and one more very exciting bit... Taboo wraps are going to be wrapping this little shitter in some of their glorious vinyl. something fresh and bright is needed for 2013. stand by for some team colours and livery! will update soon!

Little Green Giant replied to Little Green Giant's topic in Member's Cars
We didn't want to see it go to someone who wouldn't look after it. This thing deserves to be preserved! Until the engine dies of course so we had to have it straight away! -
Hello all. You may remember me from topics such as 'how much wood can a wood chuck chuck', and 'DirtyRedBaron project RACEKOR' well its my pleasure to now bring to you 'Project 3L the TDi' When Ryan decided to go all out Bat **** on his golf, he needed a daily. started looking at lupo gti's, then tdi's and then stumbled across this on these here very classified ads. Within minutes of finding it he text me asking if i wanted to buy a 3L with him. Silly question really! So my money was sent over to his bank and that very night he got a lift and picked the beaut up! To see it in our yard is something super exciting! Havent got too many pictures just yet, but heres a couple to keep us going. Those of you that are in the know about these amazing machines will I'm sure know how incredibly efficient and ahead of their time they were! Just driving this makes me giddy! One of the rarest cars on the UK roads, and not a single person bats an eyelid when driving round central London! PERFECT!!!!! not to mention the number plate L30PUL thanks. I'll get some more pics this weekend
