neil76 Posted September 4, 2004 Report Share Posted September 4, 2004 Hi all,Just picked up my first Lupo today, pictured below: border="0" class="linked-image" /> border="0" class="linked-image" />It is a 2001 SDi, bought with only 25000miles on the clock and it is as new style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" /> Would have liked a TDi but performance isn't that important to me as the car will be used for motorway commuting day in day out.So far I am very impressed, it replaced a Polo Coupe and the quality is far better, ride and handling are acceptible too, but sure to get better when I drop it and add rims. The rest of the fleet includes a Golf TDi Estate and a Beetle 1303S Cabriolet so I am not new to VW's.Will pop back from time to time and start a thread in the photo section to update mods when they happen style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />How do I get hold of a Club Lupo sticker?Neil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neil76 Posted September 22, 2004 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2004 Glad you all like the bug style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" /> Fran - Swansea (well Gorseinon actually) I think we've met before (if your the Fran I am thinking of, 16v Sport Lupo with kit etc..?)Chris - nope R33TLE is still on the Golf, one day it will make it to a new beetle :? Well i've now done 1500 miles in the Lupo and all is going well. The tourque is really surprising, regualr diesel crap up at `2500-3000rpm` to make the most but for a non turbo it is surprisingly quick.I am after sorting the suspension as it is, well rubbish. Going to fit coils in long term but I am after some Eibachs whilst it is still in warranty. Anybody got any?Anyone know what size tyres I should be looking to fit to a set of 15" wheels? and is 15x6 with an ET of 35 will fit?Cheers,Neil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
