  13. Sounds like the syncromesh has gone, un-likley to be the gear linkage as it would normaly affet other gears. that wont be an easy job. the door sounds like a couple of less severe problems the interior door handle sounds like its loose just take off the door card and re fit the cable/bar working the lock i dont know which the lupo has but my golf had bars linking up to the door lock. i might be interested in your car as a project my email is gilesbenbow@googlemail.com send me some pics cheers
