  3. could someone please measure for me the bepth of the boot of a lupo in the middle and at the edges as i'm in two minds as to weather or not i'm going to be able to fit my sub and 3 amps in my boot lol.
  4. Gotta wait for the money to be available yet. I transfared it from dads egg account to his yorky bank acount so 3 workin days till he can withdraw it n they said its gona be havin work done over the next week i.e. Service / MOT / Valet / Rattle problem
  5. wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo sorry about my moment of uber excitement their... Well first thing i'm gona buy for the lupo is gona be a set of Eibach springs so i can get back what i've lost from the 306.. which is great handling. Dont wanna spend too much (no koi lovers etc) just wish to make it less Rolly...
  6. On the rear end of the lupo, in my brochure it says its a Torsion Beam Trailing arm Does this mean its a Torsion Bar setup like the Peuget/Citroen/Renault use Or does it actually have springs on the rear ??? Just somet i'd like to know and have never properly understood. Thanks for any advice/answers style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />
  7. Today i've been bargaining between the two dealers trying to sell the car... and i managed to get this out of them 1 year Road fund licence 1 year VW Warranty 1 year breakdown cover 1 year MOT Fix the rattle Mudflaps front and rear Carpet mats front and rear Full valet 30,000 mile service £300 knocked off (now £6700) also my dads lending me the money at a great rate style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" /> deposit paid style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" />
  8. Why what did clarkson say about it ??? The episode i saw of topgear a while back he was slating it saying it was the slowest car on the road apart from on the motorway where it beasted nearly everythin
  9. dont warm up the WD40 with the blow torch though....
  10. accordin to the guy i know who works in the garage section the TDI loops usually sell within 2 days of being put on the forecourt Should hopefully get a bit of discount anyway due to my dad knowin this guy. The lass said she'd sort the rattle out, but if its not sorted i'm sure a set of mats and mudflaps wouldn't go a miss.
  11. Cupholder wise, When i remove the cup FROM the holder thats where the problem starts lol. I have no sence of levelness in my hands
  12. If it still has the rattle when i pick it up, i'll be unhappy... Is their a blanking plate available insted of the cupholders as i'd rather drink my own urine than be tempted to drive with coffee... I spill 3 litres of coffee per month in the house I'd hate to do that in a lupo... Is the rattle worth a free set of matts you think?
  13. VW Wish to buy the pug off me for £360. Selling Privately for £2500 with everythin but the ICE and the seats. I dont really wanna put the seats in the lupo tho as i dont think they suit it well enough... However i might think about it style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="wink.gif" /> My dad knows someone who'se quite high up at the VW Garage in question so he's gona try get the price knocked down a little. If he can knock the price down then i imagine he'll drop a deposit to hold it for me tomorrow style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> if not i'll do it over the phone tomorrow. I hope they havent sold it by tomorrow now... Also Theirs a rattle coming from inside the dash when driving about... anyone know what that could be? Sales lady said she'd get someone to sort it out. but incase any of you know what it could be, I might be able to point her and her mechanics in the right direction.
  14. i wont be able to afford to mod it until i sell the 306... I think i'm just gona get a set of Eibach springs for it and an uprated anti roll bar, as i'm used to good handling from my 306. i got my fingers crossed for when i talk to my dad tonight. I've got a feeling he's gona say sell my car first.. which aint gona happen style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad.gif" />
  15. My Alpine, my components and my 2 alpine amps will be going in to provide the sounds. And it'll be left at that. Sub and amp will be kept for another day style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="wink.gif" /> Running thru Loans/Finance/Lending off Dad now. Thru VW Over 3 years with a £1500 deposit, its £193 per month so thats 8.7% Per year Off my dad, over 3 years with £1500 deposit, its £180 per month, so thats 6% per year, also with my dad, as soon as i sell the 306, he'll let me pay him a years worth of the finance up front reducing the term to two years style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" /> Just got to have words with him when i get back from the gym, as i dont think that TDI is gonna be their for much longer... Its gona work our £290 extra on my insurance, but that is upgrading me from TPFT to fully comprehensive aswel. So as long as my dad aggrees tonight, I'll nip to VW on my lunch tomorrow and give em a £200 deposit for them to hold the car.
  16. Also... Its gona be staying standard (apart from a tiny bit of lowering and my ICE) style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> fed up of people calling me a boy racer now lol.
  17. Been to test drive a lovely little TDI today style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> http://pictures.autotrader.co.uk/ATD_web/s...ia?id=136865339 O2 reg, 28000 miles, £6999 from VW Dealer. Absolutely loved it, Seems a little bit quicker than my 306 td. Now i just gotta have a word with my dad and get him to aggree with me so i can put my £1500 deposit on it. style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />
  18. Just spotted a nice Jazz blue lupo Sport in oldham town centre with a nice set of Brock or RH alloys. looked lovely!
  19. thats bloody cheep... You'd be lookin at about £380 for a Superchips dealer to do it. so £24.99 is a bargain even if it only gets you 90bhp rather than 105bhp
  20. thats got me worried... I struggle to get 100 miles for £10 worth of diesel in the 306 style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad.gif" />
  21. welcome style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> my arosa/lupo is gutless because it doesnt have an engine... or a chasis for that matter... (still havent got one style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad.gif" />)
  22. style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> Sounds good tigz style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="wink.gif" /> You coming round mine for the CCNYE ??
  23. 1 - 200sx S14a 2 - Corado VR6 3 - 2005 Mustang (drool) of course i'm being totally `un-realistic` price / insurability wise
  24. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO BUT I CANT AFFORD ONE NOW... i'm gona go to the VW dealer and slap that female assistant for telling me their were no plans AT ALL and that their wouldn't be for a long time to scrap the lupo Hope my dad will lend me some money before they seice to be made style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad.gif" /> Sayin that, with the Mk2's coming out... with a bit of luck the Mk1's will go down style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="wink.gif" />
  25. Did an arosa today, Had a set of 30% Extra light Xenon bulbs put in, Took me 10 minutes for the pair. Not sure where i was going wrong, but i didnt come accross any of the problems you guys have done.. Apart from the battery of course... But i managed to squeeze hands in their earning a total of £8.99 style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" />
