NBR Posted April 14, 2006 Report Share Posted April 14, 2006 I've just been told a funny one...My fiancee was just out in the lupo, and was at a petrol station filling up. Some young boy comes up to her in the shop and goes:fool: Hi is that your Lupo Gti???Mrs: Yeah?fool: Ah nice car.... Next time get the TURBO version... If this same thing happens to you please give him a slap and educate him! Many ThanksNeil style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jnmercury00 Posted April 15, 2006 Report Share Posted April 15, 2006 to be honest i used to think the lupo was a turbo, this was before i knew anything about them though. i just presumed it was for some reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
