I reckon that's the cheapest a Lupo has gone for. Would have been alright if it hadn't broken! I saw it on AT and tried to convince my brother to buy it but he wasn't having the mileage plus it was too far away. Good luck with the project wink.gif style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="wink.gif" />

So did the guy sell you a dodgy car or was it solely your mechanic who damaged it?
