AndyW Posted May 6, 2004 Report Share Posted May 6, 2004 Can 340 horse be put through the front wheels and actually be useable? I love fast cars but 340bhp in a lupo scares me silly! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattyB Posted May 6, 2004 Report Share Posted May 6, 2004 In all honesty Andy - no. The usable limit for FWD is about `200-odd` BHP, or so I've been led to believe, although cars like the Alfa 147GTA with 250 don't seem to suffer too badly.Diffs will help, as would a good traction control system should you wish to be sensible...however in this case its just a "look what we can do exercise" - like the V6 Lupo and their ilk. Impressive stuff though! style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KidDub Posted May 6, 2004 Report Share Posted May 6, 2004 so is it a 1.8 turbo lump in it thats a lot of power for a lupo style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":lol:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyW Posted May 7, 2004 Report Share Posted May 7, 2004 I don't care if it does have 340bhp, that colour is focking disgusting :shock: When I was in the lower sixth (the year the lupo got released over here) there was a lad in my year who have a pea green lupo, was the envy of the entire year for the few month until I bought my first car, and little yellow pocket rocket for half the price style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EssexLoop Posted May 10, 2004 Report Share Posted May 10, 2004 Well i know after this weekend there were quite of us lot who had a good look around both the Lupo's on the PVW stand... There are some bits about the Venom Lupo i do like... but would probably say quite a few things i was not taken with... Think the wheels stick out from the arches too much, i know people are going for euro but IMO didnt look right... wing mirrors were a no go, apparantly visibility isnt great either, But the most offputting thing for me was the colour, kept trying to visualise it in black or red would look a lot better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tdwindustries Posted May 10, 2004 Report Share Posted May 10, 2004 yeah terrible wheels, nice exhaust was my summary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArosaMike Posted May 10, 2004 Report Share Posted May 10, 2004 I'd change those wheels straight away LOL! I just think the Lupos look really silly on those tiny little wheels. 15s and 16s are the way for the future style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":P" border="0" alt="tongue.gif" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobinA3 Posted May 10, 2004 Report Share Posted May 10, 2004 i love that vemons polo, the colour is gorgeous!!!!!!!!my fav car of the whole inters show for me!!!oh here are my 252 pics of intershttp://www.porka.net/inters Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BReal Posted May 10, 2004 Report Share Posted May 10, 2004 I absolutely love it and I reckon a lot of people going for the euro look on lupo after this, if I could go back 6 months I wish id have bought 8 inch wheels now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
