Philplop Posted August 21, 2006 Report Share Posted August 21, 2006 I've had a look, but never found any footage on the net of it on Top Gear.I know clarkson likes them, or Lupos in general, as someone on here has a review of the Fox from Top Gear magazine and Clarkson says "I clasped the little Lupo lovingly to my breast, but I push away the fox like a ******* child", or something to that effect anyway.

Grapo Posted August 22, 2006 Report Share Posted August 22, 2006 I have a video of the old top gear one with the GTI on it.She liked it but didnt like the styling iirc. Said inside was like a paint pot as well. Summed up as being the best GTI since the mk1 Golf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beach Posted August 23, 2006 Report Share Posted August 23, 2006 the lupo gti does have a too a high driving position, but then most cars do. test driving the celica 190 was a pleasure as that seat is right on the floor. and in my micra i had a bucket seat bolted to the floor pan to go low. the glass of the drivers window doesnt start until above my shoulder lol. its how all cars should be as you can feel the road. high up and you just wobble.
