  1. Personally from having a TDI lupo for the last 10 years and recently adding a GTI to the collection. I think my TDI drives and pulls better. But the GTI has a much better top end and 6th. he TDI has 177K the GTI has 82k. and to add the brakes on the GTI are flipping awful.
  2. Hi All I am selling a set of staggered RH cups I bought 4 8 inch cups then decided these were too wide for the front of my lupo so bought a full set of 7s also. So i am selling a pair of each. The fronts are 15x7 ET37 Rears 15x8 ET45 All are a 64.1 centre bore, i have bought spigots to make them go onto my lupo. 1 Centre cap is missing but for mine i bought some VW caps that fit 55mm from ebay for around 7 quid. There is no horrible curbing to the lips, just one pair are polished lips, painted centres and the others are both painted. I was getting mine all painted so wasnt bothered about this. All 4x100 Am after what they cost me £250 ono Located in Bexhill or Shoreham by sea for work, Sussex Happy to ship at buyers cost
  3. I have run 195/50/15 on G60 steels on my TDI, its on coils it did rub a little but its quite low, nothing major though. You will be fine on stock suspension and even coils depending how low you go
  4. I can only find the spares part numbers in ETKA but the will be 9 digits long as per normal VW numbers
  5. this, when i had flooding in that area it was this blocked, you could hear it moving behind the dash
  6. yes RH cups 7s and 8s. pm me if you are interested
  7. and i think toyo are the only people that make that 205 size too, its whats on my GTI now
  8. The brakes on my TDI are far far better than on my GTI lupo, although you wont get 13 inch wheels over the standard brakes, 14 inch only adn 15 inch if you go 280mm
  9. The TDI subfframe is TDI specific as i have replaced mine. It wasnt 400 quid though and it was brand new. about 160 if i remember correctly and was only 18 months to 2 years ago Just looking at ETKA mine is live as i do parts for work, its £269.47 plus VAT not, so not 400 quid. Its on discount code 6 so if you can get a trade discount on the blag it should give you 13% off
  10. Hi Guys I have a genuine roof rack and am after a roof mounted bike rack to carry my BMX. Problem is i have bought every single rack from Halfords and all of them the mountings are not big enough to go round the VW rack which is pretty wide How have people got around this. You can take the rubbers out and use the track system it seems which i havnt tried. Help
  11. pics of said lupo and clocks :-)
  12. thats an epic amount of miles!
  13. Ive seen a couple of mk4s with 500k not personally but online. pretty impressive to be honest. Mine has had regular servicing every 10k without fail, something like its 4th cambelt now too, as ive had the car so long i know all of its history. but i agree servicing regular is important.
  14. I wouldnt be concerned if its got full history etc, mine on 173k is still going strong. ive not met someone with mileage anywhere near 173 though
  15. dont let the mileage put you off, thats low,. my antracite 2003 TDI is on 173k original clutch and battery although its desperate for a clutch, has never let me down in 9 years of ownership
  16. Hi All Ive lurked for a long time on here as i have had my TDI for 10 years in April next year and have just bought a raven blue GTI My TDI is pretty high mileage on 173K adn still going strong, original battery and clutch although it desperatly needs a clutch so who has the highest mileage TDI? whats yours on, anyone know any higher than 173K? Im hoping to make 300K i dont plan on selling anytime soon, have just bought a full stainless exhaust for it as mine is rot
  17. Hi Dont suppose you have a bonnet?

    Lupo GTI Bonnet

    Must be alloy, the one i bought has had a replacement bonnet from VW which are now steel. cash waiting, as close to sussex as poss would be great 07732806951 anna@vwheritage.com
  19. I paid a smij under £100 for mine but the rear one has the same fixing as the front on my pair, One of yours doesn't look like its from a matched pair with the wrong fixing so I would say the above 60 offer is pretty good
  20. considering i paid 5350 in 2005 for my lupo with 24k TDI they hold their value so well mine is still on its original cluth and battery used daily ever since, now on 167K, brilliant brilliant cars, wish mine was this low mileage worth every penny IMO will make it back on fuel savings in no time.
