Tom's Lupo Posted February 3, 2015 Report Share Posted February 3, 2015 do you want to sell the BBS mate?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patroddy Posted February 4, 2015 Report Share Posted February 4, 2015 im bloody jealous now!!!! I've said for ages that i have never seen a lupo GTI with sunroof and Aircon, as this made me feel better that mine doesn't have aircon but i do have heated leathers and a sunroof, so i can't complain too much.I must now retrofit Aircon to solve this issue!

Greig Posted February 4, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 4, 2015 Thanks for all the comments so far! Cant see it getting much use tbh (or this year anyway) as the quattro is already the second car!As for selling the wheels, make me an offer, but it would have to be a hideously ridiculous one!

lupogtiboy Posted February 4, 2015 Report Share Posted February 4, 2015 I'm not even slightly jealous of the UR Quattro, any more pics?Lupo is nice too, it will look great on those BBS's! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greig Posted March 29, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2015 So not many exciting things to report here.I have treated it to a full service and changed the passenger side window regulator as it was broken.Next on the list is discs and pads and repaint the callipers - all of which I have ready to go on.Then get the timing belt and water pump done and replace the radiator as its ****ed and we are good to go!

EnglandSoul Posted March 30, 2015 Report Share Posted March 30, 2015 Very nicely spec Gti and love the plate as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greig Posted March 31, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2015 Yeah it is, and one of the reasons I wanted another. The leather is immaculate in it too which makes it a nice place to be!Haha, I wish the plate was mine, its Colins (ColinG, previously Bluloop on here). Mine will go on once its MOT'd - G7EGR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greig Posted March 31, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2015 So it's coming together... slowly .Started the brakes last night, and so far have one done. And not because I'm special . The dust covers, rear beam and caliper itself were all very rusty, so I too the time to wire brush them and paint them to tidy it up.Before and afterAnd a couple of wheel teasers (apologies for the dirty car) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greig Posted April 1, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2015 Lovely. Are you using spacers on the rear?No thats standard. Has about 5-7mm gap to the arch. The arches are rolled however Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4Cough Posted April 2, 2015 Report Share Posted April 2, 2015 I'm so jealous of this car! So wish we got them in our country. Would buy one in a heart beat! looks so cool with the projector headlights. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greig Posted April 12, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2015 So its almost complete! I have spent the past couple of weeks working on it for an hour or so each evening!More brakes before and after:Radiator side by side:And fitted. Also sprayed the aircon rad and condensor black as I hate seeing it chipped!Gave it a quick wash today and got proper photos. The only things left to do to it is, machine polish, fit the popper for the boot, get the headlight washers working and try and get it down my track for an MOT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
