Hello everyone My first post here and not a good one sadly! Picked up a bargain VW Lupo 1.0 E 2005 reg and 2500 miles on the clock (I know criminal) from a sweet old lady in Glasgow who had decided to give up driving as she was now getting on a bit. Guess what? Within the week it’s all over the place. VW say the pedal box is on the way out thankfully its still under warranty so they haven’t given me any grief about sorting it. Although they did try and make me wait two weeks for a courtesy car and then charge a tenner day! I told them to stuff it as I still have my old 106 to run around in. So I think it’s pretty obvious it’s a design flaw if the problems are appearing after 2500 miles of light town usage. My main concern is that it’s going to happen again and after the warranty runs out VW will lose interest. Having never dealt with VW before would anyone like to suggest how I should play this one? Do they guarantee their work parts? Is their anything I should push for while I still have the warranty to beat them up with? Apart from all that what a cool little car! ) Cheers Paul
