I wouldn't worry about changing the fuel as derv car's aren't so sensitive to it, urban legends at work here. I've done 1000 miles over the past 2 weeks, Its averaged 55.2mpg over the lot, I have a 90 round trip to work on a mixture of roads, I'm going to change my fuel filter to see if that would help raise it a little, although 55mpg ave seems to be the norm for these 1.4's 3cyl engines. I drive at about 70-80 on the motorway. The cold does lower the MPG a little as the fuel is thicker too. If it was 10 deg warmer I reckon I should be hitting 58mpg. By comparison all my previous 1.9 vag tdi's have averaged 45mpg over the same journey, however my a6 estate will do low 50's on a motorway at 80mph. Obvously the lupo is designed for lower speeds.

I've got an a6 estate that does 50mpg on a run in this weather..... however the question was about the lupo
-
Cool, cheers for the reply, Looks like what i'll get, about 52mpg ave then, not quite the 63 they claim!
-
what sort of figure are people getting to a tank on ave from the tdi motor?
-
I brought it from Bolton to Lincoln The badge will be coming off! Mods will have to wait as i'm building an M3 engined kit car.

How much would you say it was worth? Cambelt just done, in dash changer and A/C too! Guess who's a happy boy!
-
not sure what you're saying but my answer is yes!
-
buy a gti or a faster car.

2004 53 plate lupo tdi sport. 55k, with fresh cambelt service? good condition with the better type interior aircon/in dash changer. its the solid light blue colour....... looking to join the lupo club again but would like an idea of its value!
-
as above, finally got a lupo sport tdi 1.4 that wasn't over priced! Its great! got it for a good price as its got a 100k on it but fsh.... engine felt better than a 50,000 mile one I've drove. I'm a happy boy now,
-
its a scam, i bet 3 biscuits he says its in italy and includes shipping!
-
not at all, plenty more round for less money with the same spec...
-
It looks pretty! with only 25k and aircon!
-
as above, how much would I be looking at for a cambelt change on a lupo sport?
-
I'm looking for a lupo sport or tdi..... soon as otherwise i've seen a polo gti that i'll get!?!
