Rich Posted April 15, 2012 Report Share Posted April 15, 2012 I liked this when I was looking round it but you know that engine would be so much better in your 'proper car'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaddyC Posted May 12, 2012 Report Share Posted May 12, 2012 Had to go back and read this thread from the start which im glad i did! Started off as a pretty clean tidy Lupo, but this is likely to be the best Lupo on here for me and my tastes.Have to say if you had shown me the wheels before going on the car id have probably said NEHHH they'll never work, but somehow it does all work as one piece, unlike a lot of other who think that something different is automatically 'cool and dub' but just looks wenked out lol.Absolute top work sir and i tippeth my hat in your general direction Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vpolo Posted May 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 13, 2012 thank you very much DaddyC =] i havnt finished here loads more to do i don't think i will ever stop refining the car it has come a very long way from what i began with =] nearly 5 years now matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vpolo Posted May 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2012 I've had this hanging round the unit for a while now being doing some custom work to it to make it fit more work than its really worth but it should finish off my engine bay quite neatly its a audi R8 coolant cap it won't fit a lupo expansion tank only fits mk4 golf upwards also I've tried a mk4 coolant bottle in the bay but it takes up way to much room and fouls the bonnet so its going to be a custom job also ill be rebuilding the gear box with my mate mark on saturday so its full steam ahead now matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
