Hello, just wondering if anyone is aware of any kits suitable for the 1.0 that are any good? I'm looking to remove the big clunky airbox and just have an intake pipe coming straight off the throttle body, probably with a hole in the bumper for the intake. Quite happy to just buy the pipes and do it tbh, but what do people do with the 3 breather pipes coming off the engine and into the airbox? I've had a look about, and seen that people add the little mini filters on, but eventually (As you'd expect) they start dripping oil. PS - before we go there with "why on a 1 litre" - it's for the rally car, I'm not expecting massive results,if any noticeable ones at all, it's more of a weight saving more than anything to be honest, and getting the most out of the 1.0. Every little counts!

Hi I'm new to the site and I was wondering where I could get lower valance with fog lights on them for my 1.0 because I can't seem to find any for sale

Hi, just wondering if the lupo sport rear bumper would fit straight on my 1.0e and would the centre exit exhaust fit too? And if anyone had done this please give me some tips and if its any louder, cheers!

Hey, I just joined the page along with my 1.0 VW Lupo 2000 reg. Hopefully will be posting the progress throughout the changes I make but it's my first car so there won;t be much done to it. But it is great to be part of such an amazing car community already. Thanks TG.

I have a 1.0 VW lupo and have bought a sportex exhaust but it won't fit because of the bend in the original exhaust around the axel, do I need an attachment pipe and where could I get one????

Hello good fellow Lupo Heads! I recently got my first car (about 4 months ago), which is a basic 2004 Lupo 1.0, nothing to fancy but still a charm & love it more & more each day! ...Anyway, to cut to the chase Im hankering after a nice new stereo & a set of decent replacement speakers for the doors, all within a good budget - say no more than £250. ...Please forgive me and my lack of knowledge on both cars & fitting stereos etc but I could really do with some help/advice on how I would go about changing the stereo & what will/won't fit, & what I will need to buy etc for it to work & look in good shape? ...Im certain I want a stereo with built in cd & bluetooth but not to sure yet as to go for a single or double din unit (as I believe my lupo can accommodate either, having a stock vw beta radio & stock vw single cd player underneath). I have my eyes on getting a Sony MEX-N5100BT (as a replacement to the stock beta radio) then a pocket underneath (as a replacement to the stock cd player). I just want some feedback on how I would go about creating this set up in my car &/or if it would actually work? I have to admit I'm a little on the fussy side so would like it to look nice & not bulge out from the dash to much. Am I right in saying I could replace the stock radio for the Sony MEX-N5100BT as is, then simply replace the stock cd player with this pocket underneath the stereo: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/271891048751?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2648&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT Would really appreciate any advice/help! Cheers Matt. -

Hello all. I've owned my little 1.0 Litre Lupo for just a bit over a year. I thought now is the time to finally give an in depth view of how it is sitting currently and how it got to there. This is gonna be very in depth and may be a bit boring to read or look through but I honestly just want to have a permanent place to look at the progression of my little car for my own satisfaction. If even one person finds it interesting then that's just a bonus! So here we go. Lets have a quick look at the car when I bought it in October 2014. I was so excited to just be able to drive any car. A lupo is definitely not what came to mind for my first car but it was volkswagen, with nice blue dials! ooooh very fancy I thought. Now here is how it sits as of around Ocotober 2015. One year later. (Bottom right photo is actually a few months ago, no splitter and some other small things not done to it) Never thought I would still even own this car by now nevermind have it sitting like this. But hey I have grown attached and I'm super excited for where its gonna end up. Lots of stuff still planned for it! Just recently bought a 1600cc 16 valve Polo GTI engine so...yeah Obvious influences from other members of the lupo community. Club Lupo's Haakon colour choice is probably the most obvious. Don_Larss from instagram totally inspired me to put arches on this thing and there plenty of others Ive stole ideas from. So thanks to all who have helped. Anyway its 2:00 in the morning so I'll update this another time with the actual progression from start to now. Then I'll hopefully start posting updates to the finish of this thing! If any of you have read this thanks!

Hello all, First off, I know this has been posted lots before but honestly the information seems so scattered and varied and I'm not sure how applicable all of it is to my situation so I'm sorry for reposting this...please don't murder me Anyway I've come into the possesion of a 6n2 GTI engine block from a local vw dismantlers. My little (AUC) 1.0 litre has s*** the bed so I planned to do an engine swap anyway but then I got this engine for basically nothing. I know the best way to do this is to buy a complete Polo GTI that's been rear ended or something and begin swapping everything over but I don't want to buy one that's already sold some essential parts I need. So from my understanding this is what I need now from another polo with the same engine code as the one I have (AVY) Gearboxengine loominterior loomECUradiatorfuel pumpfront hubs/carriers/calipers/discsand the ignition barrel. Is there anything else?How does the AVY fit onto the AUC Engine mounts, I think I read somewhere new mounts will need to be made am I right?And also are any of these parts interchangeable between GTI polos and GTI lupos, just in case I can't find the part on a polo maybe I could use the GTI lupos. I've found lots of posts and some even talking about guides for this sort of thing but none linking to them and I can't seem to find it through the search on this forum (Probably because I'm not a huge forum user but still...) Any help would greatly appreciated. Cheers!Thanks so much!

Cheers in advance

Hi all! It has been quite a while since i last posted here, but im back! My blue Lupo (Sid) kinda died last autum, so i've been on the hunt for a new lupo to drive in! I recently saw this little beauty, and i had to get it! It's a mint 2003 Oxford 1.0 lupo, with the awesome Open Air sunroof! It have only done 116.000km (72.000 miles) which is becoming a rare thing to find so low milage on these cars! Except the Oxford trim, there's pretty much no acessories atm, except the MFD i fitted as the first thing. I do have a couple of doors with electric windows, mirrors and central locking in storage, in black too, so i'll be doing a retrofit sometime soon i hope!

Im Beth and this is Leeroy the Lupo 1.0 Spotted this little guy on eBay so took a trip up to derby and after a quick look round and a test drive the keys were handed over and Leeroy was on his way to his new home! Unfortunately the main reason for purchase was because my Lupo (Named Lily) was written off by some ****'s at the start of December 2014.

It's coming up to the rightful age that I can step into a motor vehicle and legally drive it on the great roads of England, the one problem being what wonderful little 1.0 car should be my first. Over the past 6 months searching for cheap cars that have a 1.0 aren't hard to come by, but nothing has taken my fancy apart the little german run about, the lupo. I have scoured the internet in search of the perfect one and I have come over a few. I would preferably want one with the standard alloys and either a black or silver body colour. I was just wondering if anyone the forum have any recommendations on buying a lupo and if there is anything I should look out for in terms of problems. Thanks. This was an example of one I've found http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2002-VOLKSWAGEN-LUPO-1-0-E/121382795553?_trksid=p5197.c100068.m2280&_trkparms=aid%3D222006%26algo%3DSIC.FITP%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20140205155511%26meid%3D8663686747388028877%26pid%3D100068%26prg%3D20140205155511%26rkt%3D6%26clkid%3D8663688365970371313&_qi=RTM1793693

I bought Loopy Woo in April (my 3rd car and I'm only 18, don't ask!!) but only just started this thread as I was too shy and a 1.0l with poor bodywork and interior isn't much to shout about. The previous owner (who named the car; surprisingly catchy and suited) asked me to "look after Loopy". That's open to interpretation right?!
-

FIRST OF ALL! anyone going to VW All Types show next weekend?!?! Anyway.... Hello, im james i live in St.Asaph North Wales! (second smallest city in the uk) and i joined club lupo about a week ago just before i got my hands on my very own first car which is a soft blue 2001 1.0 lupo, i thoufght i should start a thread of some of the things i have done on my car and some of the things i want to do and maybe you guys can give me your opinions and ideas! Some pictures when i went to view the car! i instantly fell in love! i got in contact with the seller who is a machanic at toyota and thhis car had come in for a part ex, its only done 63,000 and he did a service for me when i brought it, putting on a new cambelt and 2 brand new falken tyres on the front aswel as a waterpump change and some other little things that needed doing to the car! he also did an MOT on the car so another thing i dont have to worry about for 12 months! As soon as i got the car home i had to start on the mods! as i am a little stratp for cash most the time i started with a few cheap mods like blacking badges, removing all factory stickers and de-wippering the car, i also got a stubby ariel and a new VW tax disk holder in the same colour as the car off ebay! Keeping the car clean at this time of year where i live is a very hard task as the rain and wind brings all sorts of crap off the trees and sticks to the car! i will be givving the car a good clean tomorrow though depending on the weather! also a picture of the car standard next to the car i was driving before! I will keep you all updated on my adventure of my little lupo! next up i think is wrapping some interior trim and also i want new wheels or going to spray mine black! depending on money! opinions welcome and any help also! Thanks James!

Say hi to Poppy I'm going to use this topic to post progression pictures. So this is Poppy. My first car, bought on 1st December 2013. Not a lot of progress so far, other than a full exhaust replacement as she came with a bit of a bodge job exhaust system. Other than that, just the debadged grill and a bit of sticker bombing in the interior a long with a stereo replacement.. She is my absolute pride and joy and has so much potential, I have a few things in mind such as coil overs, alloys etc. and possibly a colour coded splitter then just a few details of the interior. I'm also getting a boot build with two 10 inch subs and an amp but I'm not sure how well that's going to go yet due to the shoe box sized boot :')
