Ok. I thought i'd create this very handy table of all the known colour concepts (colour etc).

This list will be updated in due course if new information is found out about any car etc.

I'm hoping to buy the x376xjo. The seller claims it is the only one left, the other was a sdi which doesn't exist anymore, was the trim used in the 1.4s?

1.4s - Don't know. Probably a retrim job by a retrimmers.

SDI/Sport - Thats what i understand about the SDI that it does not exist (scrapped around 03/06/2022). It is listed here (there is link above).

The yellow SDI is now scrap as of today, I saved the whole interior & bootlid. It had been sat on someones driveway for a few years and was very rotten. 

thank you for the update. Shame i went that way due to the rarity of the car.

A wash would have shown things in a better light.

Shame it is dead.

Quite. What happened in the six years from being sold on here is beyond me. I just hope this thread makes people aware of these cars (in the same wa the press car thread has). To my knowledge it was only 1 of 2 with yellow interiors and one of possibly one in SDi form.

Hi, 

I am the new owner of the above lupo X757 HKY

It's my first car and I had no idea how rare it was. 

It will be very well looked after and cared for

Good too hear. The reason generally why colour concepts for a lupo are rare is the option was around £2000 when new. Very few people took this up. A couple of the cars where Ex-Vw Press fleet. We don't have a exact number but the list is guide for known examples/interiors.

That's really interesting. I'd never heard of colour concept Lupos and neither had my dad until we found this one.

I'd always loved the look of lupo's. It's such ashame about the yellow on that was scrapped.

Thank you so much. 

It's so appreciated. I'd love to keep this car going forever. 

As on now it had a stiff 2nd gear but will be able to look more into it when I pick the car up Saturday. 

It will also probably have a wheel change, just because I'm still learning and want to keep the current wheels looking as good as possible

Change the gearbox oil. Everyone forgets to do it. Gearboxes need some love too... :)

 

Thank you for the advice 😊 it doesn't appear as stiff anymore. It may have just need driving 😊

 

Hopefully will be able to get some pictures uploaded soon

Hi all wondering if you can help. I feel like this part above the passenger foot well shouldn't be exposed. Am I correct or is this just just how the car is made. It feel a bit unsafe 😂
