mk2 Posted December 30, 2021 Report Share Posted December 30, 2021 Ok, so obviously a Lupo fan (excellent!), as it was immaculate and parked next to my runabout in a mostly empty car park. Cool. 👍🏻 Nice wheels and lowered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Y2ACP Posted December 31, 2021 Report Share Posted December 31, 2021 Love it,looks so retro, never seen that colour before . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lupo1.0se Posted December 31, 2021 Report Share Posted December 31, 2021 Sage green that. They did it from 2003 to 2004 i think (possibly 2005, cannot recall) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grumpy Posted December 31, 2021 Report Share Posted December 31, 2021 Looks good with the exception of the rear lights. Can't beat Cambridge's IMHO. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ObjectiveAway Posted December 31, 2021 Report Share Posted December 31, 2021 Looks great! R14 ATS cup rims? Is the black part of rear bumper painted? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oprn Posted January 2, 2022 Report Share Posted January 2, 2022 Is that a pale green or is it the lighting/picture that making it a bit washed out looking? And does it have the matching seats and door pads? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mk2 Posted January 2, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2022 Nah, those are the 3 different green colurs available on the Lupo. Actually, come to think of it, there's another too, which is a metallic light green. 4 different greens! Your's is my fav colour for a Lupo. I'd love a gti in nitro-yellow green as I call it (fantasia green is the true name). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lupogtiboy Posted January 4, 2022 Report Share Posted January 4, 2022 It's called Cedar Green, quite a rare colour, I know of only 2 local to me 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Loop Posted January 9, 2022 Report Share Posted January 9, 2022 Always loved that shade of green Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lupogtiboy Posted June 15, 2022 Report Share Posted June 15, 2022 My dad and I now own a Cedar Green Lupo 1.4s, bought it from a work mate of mine. Getting the cambelt, waterpump and a small service done on her this weekend and she'll be good to go! I need to get my Up! Triangle alloys back from a mate of mine and I'll fit them to this Lupo, should look quite sweet! Ideally could do with a new N/S headlamp as it's gone cloudy, but I'll try polishing it out first.

Y2ACP Posted June 15, 2022 Report Share Posted June 15, 2022 I saw this on autotrader,looks like a nice genuine car with plenty of life left in it,that colour with a few mods will be a real head turner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tigcraft Posted June 15, 2022 Report Share Posted June 15, 2022 Yes totally agree Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lupogtiboy Posted June 16, 2022 Report Share Posted June 16, 2022 Thanks guys! It definitely needs lowering as it handles like a boat! I'm so used to a GTI on coilovers, guess I've been spoilt over the years! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mk2 Posted June 17, 2022 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2022 You'll want stiffer front shocks to improve the handling. Be careful when messing with the rear suspension because it's so light at the back. And maybe an upgraded ARB. That's about it. 👍🏻 For the cloudy headlights, there's a how-to. I tried polishing too, and it only lasts about 6 months before going again. Lots of pics please! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lupogtiboy Posted June 17, 2022 Report Share Posted June 17, 2022 I am used to driving a GTI on coilovers and a Whiteline rear ARB, so been spoilt a bit over the years. Just managed to get a decent Pioneer double-din headunit by swapping it with a Polo a friend had in his used car stock. I'm planning on making a parcel shelf to put some rear speakers in, don't want to cut up the current shelf, and they're easy to make anyway. Got some 6x9's somewhere I used to have in my 6N Polo, that'll do for now anyway! I'll grab some pics tomo if I remember! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
