Alex Knight Posted January 30, 2011 Report Share Posted January 30, 2011 Hi all,Up here for sale is my girlfriend's VW Lupo 1.4 TDi Sport in black, on a 2000 'X' reg with just 73,000 miles.The car from what I understand is quite a rare and sought after specification.It was bought from a specialist dealer in Exeter by her a little over a year ago and has only been used for short commutes and one trip from Bristol down to Cornwall last summer (with two bikes on a bike rack on the back!).The car is generally excellent condition inside and out, and even really does bely the car's much lower than average mileage.It has been maintained by myself in the time she has owned the car, and has had a recent full service carried out by me. It is also regularly hooked up to VagCom to ensure there are no prolems with the car. It has a fairly comprehensive service history.The car is MOT'd and taxed until September 2011 and the only thing required for the previous MOT was new rear brake cylinders, drums and shoes, and done and fitted by me.Please feel free to PM/E-Mail me with any questions.The price is £2,495 and the car is located in Bristol.Photos: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex Knight Posted January 31, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2011 Ha, sorry they go with the car. It's a great little car, and my GF has nicknamed it 'The Awesome Tiny Beast'! She is only selling it because she's bought a Daihatsu Copen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jon_273 Posted February 2, 2011 Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 (edited) All cars registered before March 2001 are taxed based on engine size rather than emissions. There are only two bands, less than 1549cc or less, and over 1549cc.http://www.direct.gov.uk/en/Motoring/OwningAVehicle/HowToTaxYourVehicle/DG_10012524E.G. a pre March 2001 1.7SDI falls into a higher tax band than a pre March 2001 1.4TDI or 1.4 petrol sport.Post March 2001 both TDI and SDI are in the same tax band of £30 a year, whilst a 1.4 sport is much higher.
