Have you finished Uni now then my dear fellow?How much will you be asking for dear Loop....or for ANY of the wheels you possess at the momento?Haha, yeah, I reckon it's gonna go, not sure how soon though.Nope, at Uni part time resitting 2 modules that I failed, gonna be an eternal student I think... I'm planning on putting it back to standard and putting it up for 6k ish.Not sure what wheels I'm keeping for the caddy yet, need to get it back from being welded, then paint it and put it back together and try the wheels on to see which ones I like best, so it'll be a while.Will probably sell the Exips and the Mono's though. Maybe the polished Estorils. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Philplop Posted February 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2009 He once said in our lecture to two foreign students "Oh, I'm glad I noticed you there, I was just about to say something derogatory about arabs", and called the half-thai lad a cocklepicker. What a legend.your plans were going to be great and now its never going to happen words fail me I know! Gutted, just picked them back up yesterday, didn't get the work done to them, so they're exactly as they were. Think I'm gonna keep them though.And no, I'm not telling anybody else what they were. yet... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philplop Posted March 10, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2009 Love this rolling shot that Foxy took on the way down to UD.That's the high side too! The passenger side is quite a bit lower at the front.And I stuck to my word, I now have a small yellow 2 seater with no roof. Oh, wait...

Philplop Posted March 10, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2009 NA. Just started a Readers Ride thread on it. It's got coilovers, upgraded discs and pads and an induction kit. Coilovers will go down a bit more though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Philplop Posted July 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2009 Guess who's back in the Lupo. Felt good to drive it again, and really glad it didn't feel slow.Insurance started yesterday, MOT was booked for this morning.Got to the MOT place, and he said he couldn't do it as it's too low. He has a pit (which is why I thought he'd be the best) but the jack thing was too high.My bonnet cable snapped this morning, so it'd probably fail because he can't get in there, and he said it would fail on a broken exhaust mount too. Even though I did a really good job of fixing it with tie wraps. He didn't mention all the bits of rabbit that were stuck all over the bottom of the car though. Ran over a dead one 2 minutes before getting to the MOT station. It stinks of burning fur now.So hopefully I'll be properly back in it in the next few days!
