Frankie Posted December 11, 2004 Report Share Posted December 11, 2004 Just bought a 2000 lupo sport in red today. Lovin it ! Really pleassed with it ! When its light tommorow i'l have to take some photos to post up.My only problem is THE BONNET RELEASE ! I'd read about other people having trouble with it on here but couldnt find the old post.Ive already had it open a few times but ive just been to open it and it wont have it, just feels like ure going to bend the plastic lever or snap it off. Maybe it'l work tommorow, i'l have to see.Does anybody know if this can be solved by taking it to a dealer or is it going to be an ongoing problem?Thanks.

db Posted December 11, 2004 Report Share Posted December 11, 2004 Yeh the bonnet release is a seriously bad design, I hate having to use mine, i always think it's about to come off in my hand.Congratulations on your loop however, enjoy it style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fran Posted December 11, 2004 Report Share Posted December 11, 2004 lol my bonnet release came off in the car salesmans hand before i bought the car hehe - maybe it was a sign lol that she was jinxed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankie Posted December 11, 2004 Author Report Share Posted December 11, 2004 lol. not off to a good start then. how is it now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigz™ Posted December 11, 2004 Report Share Posted December 11, 2004 I agree, the handle is terrable.Im embaressed by it when anyone opens my bonnet.I used to think it would fall off, but it never has, and I open it all the time.Still feels crap but holds up very well.We are having a meet tommorrow, if you fancy having a run to Banbury in your new red Sport.Dont think ive ever seen a red Sport ever! http://forum.clublupo.co.uk/viewtopic.php?...?t=6428&start=0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
